mariko laughs and shakes her head,letting the water go everywhere. " no,grimmie pooh. it is like this,at home,most would call me "kobayashi" instead of "mariko". unless they know me very well. we also stick sans and chans to the end of everything...its very complicated." mariko says,looking exhausted just thinking about it.

Vara shrugs. "I think the official rules say you do, but whatever. We're not playing for money," she says back, taking a drag off her cigarette. She points the yellow solid. "You could make that one into the corner pocket."

"Got it." She tries to concentrate as she lines up her stick with the ball as she hits it and makes the white ball hit a few other ones but nothing goes in. "Well, it was close enough." She smiled, having an optimistic attitude. That was mostly Nova's attitude in life. She could be optimistic but she could also be dark and depressing. She could go from bubbly to moody in a matter of minutes. She was quite the character. "So Vara," she attempts to make conversation with her as they hadn't really talked that much about each other or anything for that matter. "What made you come in here? Big Brother, I mean."

Christopher laughs at Mariko's remark. "Don't worry, they still look fine to me." he says before poking his tongue out. Christopher then takes a deep breath before pulling himself out of the pool, giving the whole world a nice view of his bare bottom. "If there really is a God then hopefully this is edited out on the main show!"

Ashley begins putting her undersea back on while in the pool when climbs out she then looks at Mariko "Okay but don't be surprised if I take you up on that offer Mari" she then looks at Chris and places her fingers in her mouth then whistles before laughing "I doubt they'll air the front area...as for your butt I think it's just become one of those television moments nobody will ever forget" she laughs a little

"Yay!" Vara cheers for Nova again, clapping her hands. "I don't think so. If anything, I'm probably going to keep accidentally hitting your solids until you end up winning by default..." She smiles, standing back to let Nova take her second turn. "So... Nova isn't your real name, is it?"

"please do!" mariko says to ashley eagerly,then remembers" oh,you should call me first. i do not live there anymore!" mariko shakes her head,realizing how air headed she must sound right now. " right before this show,i moved to....some place in america with nina tarantino. but call me,and i will meet you there. if we bring my sister,expect to see sanrio funland." mariko says,knowing full well she would take ashley there with or without erica.

"you better watch it,chris! people are going to start thinking we have a thing on the down low." she scolds gently,and then lets out a cat call when she sees his bare butt. "damn,christopher,you want some fries with that shake?" she nearly dies laughing. as before,she climbs out not caring that she is naked. she grabs someones shirt and dries off a little with it. she then happily puts her underwear and bra on. "to the house,chris and grimmie!" she commands.

Vara grins and nods. "Tiffany. That's nice. Nova fits you better, though," she says back, and then nods. "Yeah, it's Vara. Well, Varanese, actually, but... Vara, really. Call me Vara." She smiles and laughs a little bit. "How old are you?" She lines up a shot, but doesn't make it, but didn't mind. She was more interested in their conversation than the game at this point.

"Thank you, I think so. I don't know what mum was thinking of." She smiles. "Your name is pretty and exotic like you. So it suits you perfectly." Nova scrunches up her face to see what she should try and make next. "I'm 21, just turned it in January and haven't put down a bottle in America yet." She laughs. "I only come here a few times, when my brother is here. He lives in L.A. so I visit from time to time. And how old are you?" She takes a shot and makes it, making her happy. She then decides to press her luck with her confidence and takes another shot, only hitting the side. "Damn it."

"Aw, thank you," Vara says back when Nova calls her name pretty and exotic. She felt so old when Nova tells her that she's only twenty-one. She smiles. "I'm... twenty-four," she says back. She wasn't self-conscious about her age, but she did realize that she was probably at least the second oldest person in the house, next to Mariko, and she didn't know how the other people in the house thought of age - although it really didn't seem to matter to most. "That's awesome. I live in LA most of the time, although I still have a home in my hometown in Italy." She sits on the side of the pool table and smiles. "Take another shot. I'm not in a hurry."
