Me: Welcome back to KotLC Ships! And today we are going to be making a special announcement because SOME PEOPLE- *narrows eyes at some people*-  have been lodging complaints about the purpose of this whole competition.

Biana: Oh..

Ro: YEAH *cough cough*

The Collective: Mmhmmm

Me: I realised I never mentioned this one crucial detail, and some people are starting to notice.

Ro: UH HUH

Me: So I'm gonna tell y'all what is the grand prize for winning KotLC Ships!

Keefe: UNLIMITED PRANK SUPPLIES?!??

Biana: UNLIMITED BEAUTY SUPPLIES?!??

Fitz: 100 MILLION LUSTERS?!??

Marella: A DEVICE THAT GIVES YOU THE FIRST HEAR FOR THE LATEST GOSSIP?

Sophie: ANTI- LOVESTRUCK BODYGUARD REPELLENT?

*the whole thing screeches to a halt*

Sophie: Cough cough.... sorry Sandor....

Me: Noooo....

It's actually a free getaway one week vacation to anywhere you like, for free, everything paid for- and I mean everything, that includes all your souvenirs and OTHER ITEMS you may buy on that trip. And the couple will be allowed to bring two extra people.

Keefe *stage whispers*: Sophie we need extra luggage for my free prank supplies.

Sophie *plays along*: No Keefe, I'll leave you there if you do so.

Keefe: I can light leap you know.

Sophie: Forget what I said.

Dex: Huh... everything paid for...

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Biana: Whatcha thinkin'?

Dex: Actually, I could create a device that could scam multiple shops to think into we paid them so we don't actually have to win this.

Alden: I-

Della: Shush

Me: We are, once again, unsurprisingly, getting off topic. So... yeah.

Wylie: This going to be fun

Linh: Mmhm!

Tam: We're in first place so...

Rayni: I don't know if I'll go.

Tam: Right.

Keefe: Tammy boy, our ship better not win

Tam: I've got bigger problems than you president of the Foster fan club- I have you and Dex AND Rayni- all in the qualifiers.

Me: Right, I missed out another crucial detail, the qualifiers from round one have to choose two couple representative to finish for them and proceed to this round, so y'all have to gather round somewhere and talk ok? Give one reason why you deserve to stay. The rest of you will receive another prize, for qualifying.

Keefe: Ooh..

Linh: Okay... byeeee!
