Marla smirked when an idea hit her and she went skinny-dipping in the pool.
Now only Catalina was left out. She shrugged and chose the tree, obviously racking her brain about what to do.
"Wonderful." the game said. "What have you come up with, Caty?"
"Uhm." admitted Catalina cluelessly. "Nothing."
"And you, Marla?"
"Oh, I let the water flow around my body, so that I can move more gracefully and seductive."
"You want to cover your body with clothes made from water, don't you?" asked the game menacingly.
"Uh.... erm, not really. I mean, water is transparent and it will flow around and everyone will be able to see all my bits - at least, sometimes."
"Don't fret, my rule was about clothes, and water isn't. So, Cindy?"
<Cindybot and Suebot could be able to do chassis upgrades plus tool fabrication, if given control over metal.>
"Just fine, and Jennifer?"
The girl bit her lips and embraced Caleb. "I can bring Caleb to life again, and then I can command him to hump me!"
"Caleb was removed from the game, Jennifer."
"Come on!!" yelled everyone. They all wanted Caleb back in the game.
The game was silent for a while. Then it whistled pointedly. "There are very different reasons among your group to reintroduce Caleb. And I admit his removal wasn't entirely fair. Okay. Fine. He's back. Now, what is Jack's idea with the fire?"
"I will burn you - I mean, burn the game, and cleanse all the others with purity and stuff."
The game laughed. "Very creative, Jack! Okay, here goes: Catalina, zero points, not moving. Cindybot, two points, move four tiles. Marla, three points, move six tiles. Jack, four points, eight tiles. And Jennifer gets five points for freeing Caleb and moves ten tiles. Noone of you has to do the action of your new field, of course."
With that, they all reappeared back in the game room, or the landscape changed towards reality again - no one could be sure except for the crafty game itself. Jack's figure was far in advance, while Jennifer was still last.
Jack felt different - there was some heat around his head and he felt that he had the power of the fire. He started for the game, but when he touched the board, nothing happened. The game didn't catch fire.
"Ts-ts-ts!" reproached the game. "You all get only some personal powers. Jack, you can purify vile sexual thoughts of others, and that's it. Forget your wish about burning me. Marla can dress in water like she wished, the sexbots can shape metal to sextoys just be touching it, Caleb gets depetrified and Jennifer and Catalina remain unchanged."
Indeed, Caleb was back again, and everyone stared at the guy who was still fully clothed and now turned his head to look at the others. He first looked at Jack, noticing a bright halo of light around the head of the unknown boy in a skirt, then he noticed Marla and his jaw hit the floor.
Marla had quickly spilled some tab water on her body and a flow started that gave the food-producing escort a very exotic appearance, especially when she skipped back to her bean bag and graciously sat down, not the slightest fazed about being completely naked below the slowly rippling water. If the veils on an oriental belly-dancer were enticing because they miraculously covered some bits, these water veils were even more enticing because the rivulets miraculously MISSED to cover the naughty bits, instead confirming their visibility.
Before anyone could explain to Caleb that he had missed three rounds, the game interrupted.
"Caleb has to roll, move and do all his actions before we can proceed with Jennifer's regular turn..."
