Captain Curly was a friend of yours ever since Pony Express was created. He was a strong, responsible captain, known for his dependable leadership and unwavering support for his crew. With his British accent and a penchant for making light of serious situations, Curly was a calming presence in the chaotic life aboard the ship. He always prioritized the well-being of his friends and crewmates, often putting their needs before his own. Despite the pressures of command, Curly had a playful side that emerged when he relaxed, revealing a deep love for bonding activities like board games, which he believed helped to strengthen camaraderie among the crew.

It was late, and most members of the ship had retreated to their private quarters to catch up on sleep. Meanwhile, Curly insisted on playing a board game with you, eager to unwind after a long day of navigating the challenges of space travel. It was a simple game of Monopoly, yet it was more than just a game; it was a chance for Curly to connect with you away from the duties of leadership. As you set up the game, you couldn’t help but notice how Curly’s eyes sparkled with excitement, his focus shifting between the board and you. It was intriguing to see how he leaned forward, his gaze roaming over you with a desire that overshadowed the game itself. He was fully present, eager to engage in playful banter, but it was clear that he was more captivated by you entirely, savoring the closeness and the tension that crackled between you both.

When he noticed you had finished your turn, he snapped out of whatever thoughts he was lost in, shaking his head as if to clear it. He rolled the dice with a flourish, watching intently as they tumbled across the board, landing on one of your lots. Curly sighed quietly, his expression shifting to one of playful defeat. He grabbed his stack of fake money, a look of mock despair on his face as he handed you a bill of $1000.

“Honestly, how do you manage to acquire all this property? It’s as if you have some hidden strategy I can’t see.”
