TYLER XIA
still curious | pool | minus the glasses | Kristina ft. mentions of the swimming pool gang
People tended to think that the only good poker face was one that showed no emotion, but Tyler disagreed. The best he'd seen were all off the most seemingly affable people he'd met. Like his own late grandfather, for example, a man who never frowned and whom he doubted any of those fellow elderly who spent whole days at the mahjong table with him ever suspected used to be a true blue gangster.
What was Tyler's favorite, most effective poker face? A vague smile, and that was what he wore as he listened to Kristina's listing of her suspicions, humming in apparent agreement at what she said. He thought the same as her for some and had differing opinions on others but, well, with it being only the second day, he'd have been more surprised if they agreed on everything. He actually hadn't considered Ella being the cam girl too much before, having the bias that educated people, people with the careers, wouldn't even have time to do those things. But, then again, why not? She was attractive enough to make quite some cash from it, he supposed. Another possibility added to his list.
"You currently seem to be a mystery."
Kristina wasn't the first person to tell him that. Perhaps surprisingly, since Tyler had never been too closed-off a person. Still, in current circumstance, this was a good thing. He wasn't exactly afraid of his secret getting out but it was, of course, preferable if it wasn't found out. He suspected there might be some bonuses for people who kept their secret to the end, too.
Tyler was self-aware enough to know that he probably seemed to fit quite a few of the statements on that whiteboard. In fact, there were a couple there that only missed him by a letter or equally close measures; his level of wild has been a steep downward graph from since his teens, which says quite a lot about where it'd started. Made him curious which one would come out on top, for sure.
His eyes stayed on Kristina, flickering around the group when she disappeared under the water before coming right back when she resurfaced, asking for people to share clues. Personally, he wasn't particularly inclined to giving those out. The game's fun factor was in hunting down hints, after all. He stayed quiet for a while, gaze moving over toward where Aiden & JJ were talking and then toward Ella sprawling herself out under the sun, then to the lounging Micaiah.
Then he turned to Kristina again and said, "Barter trade, hm? Why don't you make your offer first then?"
