Fendros tried to resist, but he had to laugh when he realised that it was inevitable that Lorag and Ahnasha would try to find a way to outdo one another somehow, even in a less than competitive game such as this. As per the rules, he took another swig of wine.

"Nope." Fendros said immediately. After all, he didn't technically [i]come up[/i] with the game, he didn't know who had invented it. With the extra time that Ahnasha and Lorag had taken up, Fendros was able to come up with another question in reserve, "Janius, do you play the lute?"

"No." The nonchalance of Janius' answer was unnerving, but not enough of advance warning for his apparent experience with the game. "Fendros, do you like lutes?"

"Yes," Fendros replied without an assured tone. "Janius, do you like rabbits?"

Almost before Fendros finished his question, Janius said his "yes," again, fast and almost too relaxed. With his question, Janius squinted at Fendros, "Fendros, is that a spider in your hair?"

"What?" Fendros padded his hands against his head frantically, then processed the ruse. "Hey, that's not fair," Fendros protested.

Janius just looked away and raised his bottle to his lips, speaking before drinking, "rules are rules, newbie. Drink up."

Fendros smiled, shook his head and made a noise that was a cross between a groan and a sigh, before drinking as he was obliged. As he raised his drink, Fendros noticed his limbs being liberal with the previous control that he had over them. "Right," Fendros continued, "Ahnasha..." Fendros blinked a couple of times, resigned to taking another drink as his brain tried to formulate a question, and eventually came up with something, "Ahnasha, is your fur striped?"
