Episode 2: Like, Are You Kidding Me?

[Rachel Reilly]

Haay, girl, haay! *Insert Rachel giggle here* So the past round worked out just as planned. Sharon might have been the Head of Household and wanted Annie out, but that wasn’t happening on my watch, so myself and Natalie made sure that didn’t happen at all. Luckily, everything worked out and Annie stayed in this house. The only two people that voted to keep Holly in the game were Angie and April. I guess they didn’t get the memo that Holly had no future in this game. Oops. Sucks for them. With the new Head of Household competition right around the corner, my palms are sweating and I’m super, super nervous! I know that I don’t really need to win this week, but I have to make sure that an ally of mine atleast wins so that I don’t have to be nervous about possibly going up on the block. The competition was Capture the Flag. Everyone had to design their own flag, and our flags were then placed in our own designated fort, which was locked by a password. If someone got into your fort, they would then claim your flag and you would be out of the competition and unable to win Head of Household. However, you could still keep playing and capturing other people’s flags, just so they wouldn’t win. When it started off, it was a lot harder than I expected. However, about a few minutes in, Angie captures my flag. It was ~OBVI that the wench wanted me out first. I knew I should’ve worked on hers first instead of Eric’s. When everything was said and done, it was Justin that emerged the winner. We had all forgotten that Justin was still even there. I had been in a chat with Natalie/Michele and then another chat with Sharon/Britney/Michele and both groups totally forgot about him. Ugh, it's frustrating.

With Justin winning this week’s Head of Household, it really does make me nervous. I feel anxious about the nominations because I haven’t spoken a word to Justin since we made our little “I’ll watch your back, if you watch mine” deal at the beginning of Week 1. However, it’s only Week 2, so he better still remember it and not nominate me. If he so dares nominate me, I will flip a shit and go crazy on everyone in this game, especially him. For his own sake, he better remember the small deal he made with me, and he better honor it, or I’ll come after him so fast he won’t see it coming. A lot of people were relaying to me that Sharon was going to be the target this week for Justin, and it made complete sense. A nominee wins Head of Household the next week? ~DUH! Justin would be stupid to not get revenge on Sharon, because she’s still coming after him. With Sharon as one of the nominees, that left one more spot to be filled. My nerves were going even more crazy and I felt super nervous. I was talking to Michele and telling her how I didn’t want to just run to Justin and start kissing his ass because everyone probably was. That was when Michele told me that he told her that he talks to Sharon, Angie, and I the least out of everyone. That’s when I knew that the last spot was going to be filled by either myself or Angie. I couldn’t keep sitting around, so I went to Justin and asked what his thoughts were, and he told me, “Sharon’s the target, but that’s just between you and I only”. Lol, excuse me? ~LIAR! His stupid ass was telling everyone that. Way to try and make me feel special. Justin continues to be the shadiest person in this game and it's becoming a bit of a goal for me to get him out of this game.

[Rachel Reilly]

Justin continues to not give me straight answers about who his second nomination is going to be and it’s honestly starting to piss me off. I wanted to just throw the deal that he made with me at the beginning of Week 1 in his face, and tell him that if he nominated me, I would ~EXPOSE him for being an unloyal bastard. But I kept my cool and went with the more sane option. I went to Natalie and asked her if she could talk to Justin to make sure that I wasn’t the nominee and that Angie was. I knew going to Natalie would get the job done and that she’d get a straight answer because Natalie and Justin are tight. They apparently played a past game together and Justin basically tells her everything. Bad move on his part, because Natalie and I are strictly loyal to one another in this game, with Enzo too, of ‘course. Natalie got the job done in the end, and the nominees for the week were Sharon and Angie. It was the best thing that could possibly happen, because now only one of my allies is up on the block and someone I dislike a good deal is too. I wonder how I’ll vote? I’m sure it’s ~OBVI. I clearly want Angie out because the girl came after me and targeted me in the Head of Household competition. That showed a lot to me. It showed that she doesn’t trust me and she knew that her ass would have been up on that block had I won. And she’s right about that. After talking a bit to Michele, Michele and I decided that it would be in everyone’s best interest that Sharon or Angie don’t win the Veto. We don’t want Sharon or Angie coming down because then that risks myself/Michele going up as the replacement and neither of us want that and value our safety over Sharon's. Sorry, Sharon. I hope you understand.

It’s been pretty down around the house lately. Not much has been going on and it’s been pretty dull. I don’t know what the deal is, but no one’s been entertaining this week. But that all changed when Natalie told me that she had something BIG to tell me, and I was immediately interested. She began by telling me that someone in the house found the basement and got a prize. My initial reaction was a blank stare, following by the rolling of my eyes. Like, excuse me? How did someone get into the freaking basement before me? I had been looking around the house like crazy and never found an entrance at all. But this wasn’t the worst piece of news yet. Natalie then went on to let me know that ~FREAKING JUSTIN HAS THE COUP D’ETAT. Um, like, are you kidding me right now? Is this really happening? It’s so unfair! How can someone like Justin get the Coup D’Etat. Nataloe continued to talk at me and she said that the way you get access to the basement is by doing a combination of things, such as escaping eviction, winning Head of Household, and winning Power of Veto. Justin had done two of those, so he did get access to the basement. He had been nominated by Sharon, and then he won Head of Household. That lucky bastard. That’s all I have to say about it, because if I continue I’ll probably go on and on and just get angrier. The thought that there’s only 2 safe’s left in the basement just makes my stomach go into knots, it makes me feel like there’s a ticking clock and I need to speed this up and fast. This whole thing also makes it a 100% priority that Sharon doesn’t win Power of Veto, or she’ll get access to the basement. No hard feelings towards her, but I want to a prize and I’d rather hold it myself.

[Rachel Reilly]

I’ll admit that I felt a little helpless when I found out about Justin having access to the basement and him securing one of the safes. It honestly annoys me and now I can’t get him out of this game if I win because he’ll just throw the Coup D’Etat out into the open and totally mess up my nominations and probably nominate people I’m close to. I wanted to tell everyone and wanted to paint the target big and red on Justin’s back, but I was sworn to secrecy by Natalie and I’m keeping my word to her that I won’t tell. However, I did tell Enzo, and that’s because that I trust him just as much as her. He won’t tell anyone, I know he won’t. As I continued to fume, Britney came to me with a proposition. Brit told me that Justin wanted to make an alliance with her and maybe one or two others. Britney quickly offered me up and he took the bait and agreed. Agreeing to this alliance could help me avoid the block this week if a nominee came down, so I knew it was a no-brainer and that I had to accept. Britney also told me that Justin wanted Memphis in the alliance and just his name made me gag. I don’t like Memphis. I think he’s annoying and he overdoes all his little emoticons. “O___O ^_^ O___O ^_^ O___O ^_^” ~SHUT UP, THANKS. Anyways. With Britney suggesting me to Justin to be in the alliance I feel that she was looking out for me and had my best interest in mind. And for that, I definitely am starting to trust and like her so much more than I did at first. I still know that she’s super social and probably has a good deal of alliances, but she had my back this time, so I trust her alot more.

Next up was the competition for the ~NEATO, which is a term that’s been used by some of the best past players in the Warzone series. The competition was 5 scrambled quotes, and you had to unscramble and match them to the correct houseguest by filling in their speech bubble. This was a competition that I was a fairly good at. I raced through pretty much all of them but when I neared the end I started to think about my whole situation. I was in two competition alliances: Sharon’s and Justin’s, and both would want me to do different things if I won the neato. I’m definitely more loyal to the girl alliance with Sharon, but Justin also has the Coup and he could use it against me in an upcoming round if he was a final nominee. I couldn’t risk it. I told Enzo about my sitch and I gave him all my answers so he could submit them to win. Enzo winning would be more beneficial, because then nominations would stay the same and I wouldn’t have to deal with Sharon being upset with me. However after Enzo submitted I noticed the error I made. I messed up on the commas in one of the quotes and I knew right then and there that I was pretty much screwed and that Enzo wasn’t going to be winning. When the results were posted, it was Memphis who emerged the winner and carried the gold medallion around his neck. Honestly, maybe this was also a good thing? I had just made an alliance with him so perhaps Britney and I would have a bit of pull with him in making sure that he didn’t use it and both Sharon and Angie would stay up on the block, because we couldn’t risk Michele going up on the block if Angie had gotten taken down, for example. I think just getting the votes for Sharon to stay is much safer.

[Rachel Reilly]

As the night progressed, Sharon was wallowing and felt hopeless. I mean, we could get easily get her the votes to stay in this game. She would have had myself, Britney, Michele, April, and Enzo. That’s 5. All she would have needed after that is one more person and she would have survived and continued to play this game. But guess what? Sharon goes to Memphis and outs/confirms the 4-girl alliance of myself, her, Britney and Michele. ~WRONG MOVE, BEYOTCH! How dare she go and spill our alliance to Memphis. It was obvious what she was doing. She was trying to toss us all under the bus while letting people know that she had some votes to stay in the game. We specifically told her not to do that and she did it anyway. So now Memphis knows and now Britney and me could be in a bit of a rocky position in this new alliance we formed with Memphis and Justin. This can’t be happening right now. I know for a fact more than anything, that I want Sharon our of this house for being a backstabber. She even continued to sit there and say that Memphis “already knew” and that she “accidently confirmed it”. First of all, how do you accidently confirm something? And secondly, please. How the HELL would Memphis know all 4 of us were aligned. There’s no way in hell. She gave the names and she fucked us over. With this move that Sharon just did, she has definitely dug her own grave now. I don’t see how Britney or Michele would even want to keep her after this either. She’s gotta’ go. I know that Sharon told Memphis, because Memphis tells one of my closest allies, Enzo, everything. Memphis told Enzo that Sharon was telling him all about the girl alliance, so right then and there I knew that Sharon was a snake and also that Enzo/Memphis had a special bond. That’s when I learned of this “Dingo” alliance that Enzo and Memphis have going on.

Memphis approaches me about what Sharon has said and I knew it was the perfect chance to really do the damage control that I needed to do. I basically told Memphis that the girl alliance that Sharon admitted to being in was only formed on a whim during the last Head of Household competition to help one another. It was never a solidified alliance and we all weren’t super chummy with one another. I then continued on by throwing Sharon’s fat ass under the bus and letting Justin know that I had absolutely no problem voting her out, especially after this. Of ‘course, I think his main concern was what the whole deal was with the alliance that was just made between him/myself/Britney/Justin. I told him that Britney and I were 100% dedicated to that alliance. I said that I’m obviously going to be much more loyal to an alliance that was set in stone and solid in comparison to one that was hardly ever even one to begin with. Memphis seemed to buy everything I was selling him, so atleast I felt a bit more confident that the nominations would be unaffected and they’d stay the same. Because with Sharon spilling the beans, there was a chance that Angie would come down and I would go up to make sure Sharon or myself would be evicted. After dealing with the Memphis situation, I was faced with another. April had apparently gone to Sharon and told her that I “control” Natalie’s vote and that I could get her to vote to keep Sharon. Yeah, no. I confronted April and put her in her place, saying that I don’t control anyone’s vote. She needs to watch her mouth. April is seriously moving up my target list. She needs to really watch what she says because it could be the end of her very, very soon.

[Rachel Reilly]

After all the drama that went down, I went straight to Britney and Michele and told them about what Sharon did. Both Britney and Michele weren’t on when the drama went down, so I felt that I needed to fill them in. I knew that once they knew what happened, there was no chance in hell that they’d give Sharon a vote to stay in this game. I told them both that Memphis would probably talk to them about it so I explained the story I told to him so that they could say something like it as well, so our stories would match up. The story being that the 4 of us were hardly ever aligned. It was just the 4 of us helping one another in a chat in the first Head of Household. Britney and Michele pretty much reacted the same. Britney seemed more confused though and couldn’t believe that Sharon would do something so stupid, where Michele was more angry than anything, mainly because Michele was the one who told Sharon not to reveal who was voting to keep her to anyone or it would reveal the alliance. However, Sharon went around and said all our names anyways. I don’t understand what she was trying to do. I know that she wanted to stay and everything, but did she not respect us enough to consider our wishes that our names not be revealed and thrown all over the votes for her to stay? She didn’t think about anyone BUT HERSELF. The girl is dumb. Sharon has absolutely no chance this week for eviction. She’s done. The only person that I can see possibly keeping Sharon this week and giving her a sympathy vote is April, who was the whore that she was really aligned with on the side. But honestly, April, keep digging that hole of yours. Voting against the majority two weeks in a row isn’t going to add up in your favor, ~BEYOTCH. God, I honestly just want this skank up and out, as soon as possible. I need to get that HOH key and soon.

As of right now in this game, I’m in four group alliances. One is the alliance of myself/Natalie/Enzo. This is the one that I’m most loyal to and will honor over any of the other alliances I have and make during the game. My loyalty is with Natalie and Enzo and I think theirs is with me as well. The second alliance is myself/Natalie/Michele. Michele seemed like a good person to nab and have in an alliance and even though Natalie and I suspected she was more with Sharon, it turned out that she was more with Natalie and I. Michele has said on multiple occasions that she’s with Natalie and I above all and trusts us the most. Michele’s a good ally to have, and I’m glad that she’s aligned with Natalie too. The third alliance I have right now in this game is myself/Michele/Britney. This alliance is the one that also had Sharon, but I’m sure that after this round’s eviction, Sharon will be gone and no longer apart of our alliance. I’m also not sure what the future holds for us 3 either. Will we even continue working together after all that’s happened? I ‘m not sure but I’m hoping that we can all stay intact. And lastly is the alliance of myself/Britney/Justin/Memphis. I don’t like Justin or Memphis at all, really, but like I’ve said, if they honor this alliance then it was a good move to make in this game. With me in this alliance I hope to get into Justin’s good graces so that if and when he uses his special prize, it won’t be used upon me. My targets consist of April, Eric, and Angie and if I win Head of Household anytime soon, you can expect to see 2/3 of them up on the block. What puzzles is me is that Marvin hasn’t proposed an alliance yet. I mean, he says he’s crushing on me 24/7 but hasn’t even made a MOVE in trying to align. I guess what we have is just unspoken, but sooner or later it’s going to have to be made official so that he doesn't end up nominating me at any point.
