My Wife Left the Table Mid-Game (A Cosmic Encounter Story)

So last Saturday we had 5 people over and I suggested Cosmic Encounter. My wife Sarah said she’s “fine with it.” Famous last words.

She draws the Virus. Starts winning encounters left and right. The table turns on her. She’s laughing at first, then she’s not.

I play a card that forces her to lose her power for a round. She says “I thought we were married.” Gets up, goes to the kitchen, starts doing dishes. Aggressively.

She came back 20 minutes later and won the game. 10/10 would play again. She would not.
