#i could write an essay on bigb + jimmy or bigb + martyn too but not enough room in tags

i think scar bigb grian team would be absolutely insane and i need it now for many reasons. One: look at double life. that happened. think of the angst potential. thats an entire essay. however the team would still function fantastically despite this. Two: Scar bigb dynamic is criminally underrated and i need more of it. Scar loves bigb and is his life series best friend (his repeated words) and loves to swindle him out of all his mortal possessions even more (see: third life and last life). bigb loves scar, is drop dead TERRIFIED of him, and finds him a nuisance. all in one moment. An absolutely insane dynamic that leaves me rabid every time they interact. Three: Grian and bigb. theyre besties your honor and i think them teaming up for a proper season is longgggg overdue. they wanna team sooo bad (projecting this directly into their brains). also with how weird grian+bigbs first interaction in SL was?? it would be even funnier if they teamed despite that and made eachother worse. also evo buddies and the relationship between First Guy With Weird Task and Watcher would be interesting lore-wise. Four: desertduo. post now. <- incredibly important point. Five: I think their dynamic would be super silly and unironically result in a *very* strong team that would probably last a while! Bigb and grian are both pretty good survivors and scar is scar so. listen i need a team with bigb and at least one of these guys its not even close to a want anymore

This was inspired by a posts i saw months ago but imagine Double Life AU where it’s assigned partners in a college child development class where they take care of a robotic simulated baby.

• Bdubs and Impulse get wayyyyy too into taking care of a baby together they share their dorm rooms for the duration and say the relationship is apart of the assignment and it will get them more points

• Grian sees that he’s partnered with Scar but Scar is not paying attention at all and is oblivious the entire class. He’s looking at the cat photos on his phone and showing people the different stuff he wants to get for a litter of cats he found on the street and pays more attentions to the cats then the assignment. He found it funny until the next class he realized how invested Scar was about his cats over their assignment…

This results in the third use of a “Divorce” motion in these couples. In the assignment you’re allowed to apply for divorce with your partner. This results in the parent that keeps the child the majority of the time to be able to write a more free form essay that is less strict about what they learned and how the situation was while the other has to write a longer essay about what happens to children with divorced parents and absentee parents and so on. Bigger paper with needed hard statistics. More of a pain. But it’s overseen by their professor who can allow or deny a motion.

• Grian’s request got rejected. Scar defended himself by saying it was a hobby and he did care and he was taking care of the home and Grian didn’t have great reasons besides just knowing him for awhile and that alone wasn’t enough.

• That being said, Scott got the first successful divorce, after the first fifteen minutes of class Pearl didn’t show up and the first day was the prime day to decide you’ll be separated as some people don’t mind the longer essay or prefer it. The quickest reason is people who aren’t present at the first day as it’s emphasized to be important. Scott saw that both his and Cleo’s partner were gone and got frustrated as time ticked on, the motion wasn’t accepted until it was official at the end of the class Pearl wouldn’t show up.

• Cleo on the other hand wasn’t jumping to deal with this alone, though Scott was confident he could do it and annoyed by the absence of their partners. But the entire time passed and it got under their skin as everyone came together to make their plans and so on. She put a motion forward at the end of class

Those two are the only ones that ended up getting officiated and they promise to help each other out as their dorms are close to each other’s

• Pearl and Martyn on the other hand? spent their class time at the store, Every moment Pearl asked if they should go back Martyn had a new idea Pearl wanted to jump on. Getting extra materials and things for the assignment. Martyn argued when Cleo put a divorce motion forward when he showed up after class, but she double downed and in anger he accepted it.

• Pearl was upset when she showed up with Martyn and saw Scott and Cleo talking to the teacher about the divorces. After the divorce was accepted between the others with a bang Pearl stammered as Scott said they would be divorced as well and he left with Cleo. Minutes later Martyn left her too.

• BigB and Rendog go quickly into the honeymoon phase of a relationship as they set up a whole area in the room, also move in together and strategize what would be best for the baby. They’re very happy before any discord is planted in their relationship.

• Joel and Etho? They end up loving messing around. They will play many games with their baby. They take it out shopping and like pretending it’s real to freak people out. Joel gets family pajamas for them. And people don’t expect them to be as happy together as they are. They didn’t plan to move in together but ended up just staying the night in each other’s dorms to the point that they move in mid assignment.

• Tango and Jimmy also don’t plan to take this too seriously, upon hearing that others are moving in together they end up agreeing that would be smart. They become endeared to each other by accident, they didn’t really know each other well before the assignment and warm up in silly ways and end up just taking care of each other as much as the baby.

• Cleo and Scott spend a lot of time together with their babies! They help each other out despite Martyn and Pearl causing semi issues often.

• Grian ends up starting some sort of thing with BigB while Scar isn’t paying attention. Either while Scar is taking care of the baby Grian ends up helping BigB out, or BigB will stop by Grian’s dorm and help him out. Sometimes when they’re both on a break they go and get lunch… give each other presents. Grian enjoys it a lot.

Discord is sown in BigB and Ren’s relationship.

• Rumor spreads that Pearl is a Baby Snatcher because of an event where she ended up taking care of Grian and Scar’s baby.

• Pearl just wants to participate in the child’s life but Scott calls her a deadbeat and ignores her pleas.

• Bdubs thinks that if he can break other couples up and have one of them join him and Impulse then they will end up getting extra credit (no clue where he got this idea from) so he lies to other couples and a lot of people catch on quickly.
