Coming out of her little cove-type area, Zanna looked over at the screen again. "I don't know what that is, so I'm just going to watch you," she replied, still trying to figure out if she'd ever played or seen someone play Halo before. She didn't recall it, but she knew a lot of people that were obsessed with it. So it was possible that she'd played it before and just didn't remember. [/size][/color] |

"Aw. Okay, you watch for a bit, then we are forcing you to play." Anthony said nodding and putting the extra controller between them.
"Hey Ash. One word... BoomStick."Anthony said grinning. Ashton frowned sticking his tougue out. "Rocket whore."Ashton said trying to kick Anthony's legs even though Ashton's were crossed and Anthony's were stretched out as far as they could go without hurting him.

"Mm. Fine. But I will suck really bad--I'm warning you now. I'm not one of those people that's good at videogames. I pretty much can't play any of them well..." Zanna said, watching the screen again, then looking at the bickering people. They were amusing, at least so far. She was sure it'd annoy her someday, but not any day that was soon. [/size][/color] |

"We don't mind. It'd just mean easier kills for us."Anthony said grinning. "Jokeing Jokeing!"He said holding up his hands. Putting them back down he started playing. "If I'm a rocket whore, then you're a... Yo face."Anthony said laughing as Ashton cracked up and almost fell on the floor.

Although their comments seemed random, Zanna was pretty sure that they had to do with previous conversations or arguments they'd had with each other. Or they, like her, were just extremely random. "What's the point of the game?" she asked, still not having figured it out. Was it because she was a girl that she didn't get it? Or was she just dumb and/or slow? [/size][/color] |

"Point of the game?"They both looked at eachother saying it at the same time then grinned. "There is not real point right now. We just kill each other. But if we weren't playing agaisnt each other it would be to kill the aliens."Anthony said nodding. "Random qoute of the day. Rocket whore!"Ashton excalimed happily as he beat down Anthony on the game.

"Oh. Well...that seems..." Zanna said, trailing off since she couldn't think of a good adjective to describe it. "Well it seems sort of pointless, but I guess it could be fun," she said, being honest. It did sound really pointless--but maybe it was fun. As they say, you can't judge a book by its cover. Except...Zanna did that a lot. Judging a book by it's cover, that is. [/size][/color] |

Anthony shrugged smiling. "It may be pointless, but its fun. Don't know why. But its fun."Anthony said nodding his head and turned to face the screen again.
"Who's winning?" Ashton asked this question because he didn't know if he was or not. He was leaning forward on the couch stareing at the screen as Anthony got up. "You are."He added grinning as he made his way to the fire and huddled down next to it.
"You're not gonna say something all wisdomy are you? From some famous old person or author are you?" Ashton looked at Anthony as he cut the Xbox off and put it on MTV while staring at Anthony.
"No no, not right now. I can't just think this up. I have.. To take time to remember the wording and all correct."Anthony replied flicking dirt up off of his pants. He wasn't looking up, it looked more like he was talking to his knee but no, he was talking to Ash.

Well that was quick. Zanna had expected them to play it for at least a half an hour. Maybe they thought that she was getting bored by it, and were being nice. She sort of doubted it, but it was slightly possible. "Ooh. MTV," she said, walking around the couch and settling herself down into it. [/size][/color] |

"I love MTV! Think one up Bou, I wanna listen to one!"Ashton said turning to Zanna he poked her then pointed to Anthony. "Make him say one?"He asked looking pitful, or about as much as he could muster without breaking into a huge grin. It was hard for Ash to do anything without breaking out in a grin.

Being poked, Zanna jumped a little. She'd been getting into what was currently on MTV, and almost forgot she was in a store with other people rather than at home in Harry Potter pajamas. "Oh. It was you," she said, returning the poke before glancing over at Ashton. "You're not very good at faking that you're not happy, are you?" she asked. [/size][/color] |

Ashton watched as Zanna jumped then poked him back giggling. "I'm a horrible actor, and a worse liar."Ashton said finally giggling and squirming until he was ridden of the ticklish feeling her poke had left him with.
"You should have seen him last Christmas, when he had snooped around and found our presents, and mom confronted him."Anthony said giggling at the thought of it. "He was oh my gosh it was a funny had to be there moment. I think I caught it on tape to."Anthony added laughing more.

"I'm a pretty good liar when I try. But usually I tend to be honest," Zanna said, shrugging a shoulder before turning to Antony. "I'm definitely going to have to see that video sometime," she replied, small grin coming onto her face. "Why, if I may ask, did you just randomly happen to have a video camera when he was being confronted?" [/size][/color] |

"Normally I am honest. But, I came across them, and she was mad, so I was trying to hide it."Ashton murmered chuckling. Antony laughed "Okay, I'll show it to you." if you had chosen that moment to turn and look at Ash you would notice that his cheeks were slightly red, but that soon faded. "It was Christmas, I was recording the family. I noticed he was getting blamed for something so I taped it."Antony said smiling. "Thats why."
Anthony then grinned. "Have you ever played the game? The game where all sit in a circle and you whisper something to the one sitting next to you, who whispers it to the next, and so on, until it has made the round of the circle and comes back to you—a new whisper, a new “truth,” a tale that, somehow in the transfer, evolves and mutates into something that bears no resemblance to the original. How can this be? It is willful, accidental, inevitable? Can truth be so easily turned, folded, pierced, twisted, and tossed like a toy from one to another? If played honestly, the game is always good for a laugh. Truth has many masks. A lie, only one."Anthony said it slowly making sure he got it right then took his shoe off and tossed it to Ash. "There, that is your qoute of the week."Anthony said slipping his other shoe off and sitting down near the other two.

"Oh. Well that's strange, but it doesn't really surprise me," said Zanna, tapping her hands against her knees and looking down at her own shoes. She would have taken them off, had they not been so far down there and double-knotted. So instead, she just sat back and listened to the lovely quote of the week. It was pretty deep. Pretty intense. Pretty smart-sounding.
"You sound so widsom--I mean wise," she said, after having pondered the thought for a frew minutes. It sounded like he'd thought about it for awhile as well. Or just stolen the idea from someone else, but for some reason she doubted that. [/size][/color] |
