When you were stranded in a house with a bunch of strangers, and possible freaks or druggies or god knew what else they might be, it was a good idea to stay in shape. Jamal didn't have to worry much about that since he'd come in that way and that was good because the fitness room was a joke to him. They actually had a dance bar in there! Was there a ballerina chilling in the house? That actually wouldn't be too bad, Jamal thought, scratching at his chin as he wandered into 'Game Room B'. Ballerinas had nice bodies. He could see that Eden chick from upstairs in a leotard doing all those weird stretches, jumps and twirls that they did. Which he only knew even happened because he'd seen it in a movie somewhere. With the guys? With one of his girls? "Don't matter," he mumbled as he looked over the selection of games available. With that storm carrying on outside there was no way he was heading out to get a good run in, so instead he'd decided to play some games. Maybe then he'd catch a glimpse of someone else in the house. Like a dude. Jamal was a big fan of the ladies and would be fine being the only guy in the place, but he didn't think that was quite right.

But it would be pretty damn sweet for a year.

Grinning just at the idea of being left alone with a houseful of women for an entire year, Jamal decided that he wasn't going to play a video game exactly. Instead he walked over to the old-fashioned Pac-man game he'd seen stood in a corner and pressed the button to bring it to life. Man he had loved these things when he was a kid, skipping out of school because who the hell cared about it? He hadn't gone and he'd only ended up in jail the once. Wasn't like knowing algebra would've kept him from hot-wiring those cars. "Alright Pac-man," Jamal said, pointing one hand at the screen as the familiar little yellow man sprung to life. "Let's eat some ghosts."
