JM Ibarra and Fyang Smith are as unfiltered as it gets—no pretenses, no holding back—which is exactly why they&#x27;re so fun to watch. And because they’re never scared to be honest, this game turned into a full-on kilig fest packed with candid confessions that their shippers will absolutely love. In this round of “Tic Tac Toe with a Twist,” JM and Fyang played the classic game but with an added challenge. Each spot on the grid had a corresponding question that they had to answer before claiming it. And with these two being their naturally unfiltered selves, their responses ranged from hilarious to unexpectedly sweet. They were at their cutest selves as they playfully fought over who would mark the board first, but JM, ever the competitive one, didn’t let Fyang win that round so easily. Before making his move, he picked a question that asked what they would say to each other if this were the last day on Earth. JM kept it simple yet profound, saying, “Maraming salamat,” followed by, “See you sa kabilang buhay.” It’s giving a love that doesn’t end even after this lifetime. Aww. JMFyang shippers, get ready to swoon! When Fyang was asked about a lie she once told JM that he still doesn’t know about, she giggled before confessing that she sometimes lies when he asks if she’s finished her meal—she’d say yes even when she hasn’t. From a shipper’s POV, isn’t this just the softest thing? It totally gives that impression that he’s always checking up on her and making sure she eats on time and takes care of herself.JM  displayed his comedic side in the next round, joking that the question he picked was, “Bakit kamukha mo si [Piolo Pascual]?” That one-liner had the entire room laughing. But the real question was about which part of Fyang’s body he’s most attracted to. He answered, “Lahat.” Mic drop. In Gen Z slang, our ‘eabab’ is ‘soafer latina’ for real!Still breathing, Team JMFyang? Because JM wasn’t done yet. When Fyang picked a dare that had them asking each other something they’ve never asked before, she went with, &quot;Anong ginagawa ko na nagpapasaya sa&#x27;yo?&quot; JM didn’t even have to overthink it, saying, &quot;Basta kasama siya, masaya na ‘yun.” Aww.Then he flipped it—what’s something he does that doesn’t make Fyang happy? Two things. First, when he goes out very late at night. She gets that it’s his only free time, but she still worries about his safety. Second, when he suddenly goes from all-out &#x27;makulit&#x27; to complete quiet. JM defended himself, saying that there are moments when he simply craves silence. In such instances, Fyang assesses the vibe to see if he needs space or if he needs someone to lift his energy. This relates to one question on what she dislikes most about JM, which is his moodiness. As the game went on, JM got deep when asked about the best gift he could give Fyang. He said internal happiness because he’s not a materialistic person. Meanwhile, Fyang tried to play it cool after accidentally slipping that JM had already given her the best gift. Hmm. What do you think this &quot;gift&quot; could be?That answer actually connects to another question on JM’s love language. He shared that he prefers receiving quality time, but when it comes to giving, he makes sure to express all love languages to the people who matter to him. And if they were to go on a date for that much-needed QT, they&#x27;d love to spend it in Japan, which is JM&#x27;s dream destination.JM may have won the game, but we think the real winners here are the JMFyang lovers who just got their daily dose of kilig moments!
