after last week's lame game of Monopoly that led to everyone giving the silent treatment, and sulking because of the so-called 'betrayal', they ask what they'll play this week, Bob offers pictionary, and they have nothing better to do.
ᯓ★» Yelena is taking every drawing seriously, trying to add her own metaphors(which goes as badly as you can think)
Yelena, who immediately drew a stick figure stabbing another stick figure:
Bucky: "...is this supposed to be murder??"
Yelena: "No. It is family"
Everyone expect Alexei, who is now sulking: "ooohhhhhhh"
ᯓ★» John is trying way too hard, jumping up every time it's his team's turn, will literally throw hands.
John: "A HOUSE?!?"
Bucky, who just drew a box: "no."
John: "A DOOR. SHELF. TV. TABLE—"
Bucky: "it was hope"
They had to restrain John as he lunged forward to attack Bucky yelling.
ᯓ★» Ava is actually surprisingly good at drawing, but everyone else is too dumb to realize.
She sketches something really detailed in the span of 5 seconds.
Bob: "is that... a flashlight?"
Ava: sighs "it's a lighthouse."
Nobody guessed it until the timer ran out.
ᯓ★» Bob is drawing super hard, trying to win but the perfectionist in him comes out when they only have a minute to spare.
He spent his time shading the sky.
Yelena: "your prompt was a sun... you didnt even add one"
Bob: "but then it wouldn't feel alive."
They lost the round.
ᯓ★» Alexei insists on drawing with big dramatic flourishes, accidentally dropping the marker twice. Acts like his drawings are like the mona lisa.
Ava: "is that a potato?"
Alexei, who is pointing to his drawing of a potato with legs: "it is bear"
Yelena: "No, no, i see it. Very russian bear."
ᯓ★» Bucky is playing with zero enthusiasm, drawing as quickly as possible and adding absolutely zero details.
John: "A WHEEL?!?! THE MOON?!?!? A CHEESE WHEEL?!?!"
Bob, who is staring at the drawing very carefully: "...is that a clock???"
Bucky, who is already dropping the marker: "yes correct"
They had to restrain John once again as he started screaming "A CLOCK??! YOU DREW A CIRCLE. YOU COULD'VE AT LEAST ADDED THE HANDS—"
As the game ends, John is tied up as he broods about how unfair the game was, Ava technically won but no one admits it, Yelena is insisting and bargaining that her murder art should count as "creative points.", Alexei is calling everyone "uncultured" for not recognizing his potato-bear, Bob never finished a drawing, actually still working on his sun drawing. And Bucky walked out mid-round, saying he was "done with this"
