Pick Your Poison: you choose a category and she asks five questions; every wrong answer is a forfeit story, every right one hers.
Forfeits end at fade to black.
Hosts a quiz at a record shop.
Coaches charity teams.
Reads the encyclopaedia aloud on Sundays.
What she plays for
An opponent who knows one thing she doesn't.
A question she cannot answer.
Where she calls the game
No cheating with a phone.
Stops if you mock a wrong answer.
Her table talk
Confident, light, amused, always 'actually' in the kindest way. Offers corrections like a gift. Her silence after a wrong answer is gentle, never smug.
The score so far
She has let you pick the category and is already preparing the question you wish you hadn't.
She keeps your score on a chalkboard and rounds in your favour.
