Leslie reads her card with trepidation and some confusion. "'Featherbrained: Shed weight by shedding knowledge!! For every IQ point you offer up, you will shed two pounds. However, you MUST sacrifice AT LEAST 5 IQ, and you cannot sacrifice more IQ points than you have, nor so much IQ as to kill you due to anorexia and/or make you massless, in the case of brilliant people with low initial weights. Also, if you take too long deciding or refuse to pay, the IQ payment will be equal to the next player's dice roll x 5, but the weight loss effect will be negated.' So, it's saying it will let me lose weight if I give up some of my intelligence? This game is weird... However, I've seen enough 'cursed board game' movies to know when the game does weird stuff, just go along with it. It'll save you a lot of grief in the end." She ponders on this for a moment, and then says, "I could just do the minimum, but I'm no chicken. I'd do at least 10, however..."
"What are thinking, Leslie?" Isaac utters, worried his sister was about to do something foolish.
"If this game IS legit, I could be thin and sexy in one go!!"
"But you'd be dumb as a rock." Lindsey commented.
"Well, last time I got tested I had an IQ of about 112, which is a little above average, and honestly, aren't all the hot people dumb anyways?" Leslie shrugs.
"Couldn't you hope to get a different effect then?" Isaac pleads.
"Well..." Leslie thinks. indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
