Can you imagine The Monster’s panic when they realize Neil has been in the shower for way too long after that first trip to Eden’s.
Aaron amd Nicky leave him alone in the bathroom and continue about their morning.
Andrew and Kevin show up a bit later with breakfast. Andrew ask if Neil is finally awake.
Nicky tells him that he is the shower. Aaron checks the time and is like huh he has been in there for 30mins already.
They all just kinda shrug it off and grab a plate for breakfast.
After another 15-20mins go by they start to get a little worried though.
Nicky goes and knocks on the door, Neil doesn’t answer.
Andrew goes and bangs on the door, Neil still doesn’t answer.
Now they are really getting panicked, because holy shit did Neil drown.
They run around the house trying to find something to unlock the door, before Andrew does something drastic like knocking a hole in the door.
Kevin is yelling at Nicky and Aaron telling them they can’t afford to be a player down this season.
Andrew finds his lock picks and is working on the lock.
The door opens and thank god there is not a dead body in their shower, but also there is nobody at all.
They notice the tiny window has been pried open, and the clothes they let him borrow are shoved down the toilet.
Andrew just starts laughing, because holy shit this guy is willing to do anything to keep his secrets. Which is just fascinating.
Kevin is glad his stricker isn’t dead, but wants to know where he is.
Aaron couldn’t care less about this whole situation and goes back to his breakfast.
Nicky is affronted by how far Neil was willing to go to get away from them. Like are we really that bad? Also who is going to dig the clothes out of the toilet?
things allison has done to try to signal to renee that she’s into girls and dtf (but also dt buy a city apartment and raise plants and dogs together)
‘so who on the team do you think’s gay? i get a vibe from twin mega crazy 1′ (‘hm, don’t you think it’s rude to speculate about how our teammates identify?’) (dammit)
24-hour florence and the machine playlist (’would you mind turning that down please? I’m trying to sleep’) (shit fuck)
‘these are the top 5 female celebrities I would TOTALLY bang, renee who are yours?’ (‘I don’t think I have a list’) (godDAMMIT)
‘hey renee what do you think of this bra?’ (‘the lace is nice but looks itchy, I’m not really an expert, ask dan?’) (RENEE COME ON)
six-inch rainbow heels
please add onto this I need 50k of allison pining uselessly and renee barely keeping a lid on her gay thoughts
Painting her nails the Bi flag colours (Renee offers a causal complement then doesn’t bring it up further.)
‘Wanna watch a movie with me tonight?’ ‘OK, I’ll ask Dan to join us’
Brushes Renee’s hair behind her ear, finds excuses to hold her hand, touches knees with her. Renee has no reaction. (On the outside.)
‘So, any particular reason for the rainbow tips?’ ‘They’re pretty’ ‘you bet they are, anything else?’ ‘I just like them’ ‘I just like you’ ‘aww I like you, too, Allison’ (??????????gay??????GAY?????????)
‘You ever wonder if you’ve already met the person you’re going to marry?’ ‘Sometimes’ ‘I wonder all the time’ ‘hm’ (HM?)
Andrew notices and points it out to Neil. ‘She should just take your approach, Drew’ ’…dare I ask?’ ‘Just straight up tell her she’d give her head ;)’ ’……….amazing, you actually have a good point, mark the calendar.’
Meanwhile, Renee is Captain Useless Lesbian and has been internally screaming for 12 years.
