Allison: it was a routine surgery matthew he was always gonna wake up
Matt: if anyone could get killed during a routine surgery it would be neil
[Aaron emphasized this message]
Aaron: boyd has a point
Aaron: $10 says something’s gone horribly wrong
[Allison laughed at this message]
Renee: Do you really think you should be trying to make an easy profit off of Neil’s misfortune?
Dan: ‘easy profit’ you think aaron’s right?
Renee: Oh, almost certainly.
Allison: I’ll take that bet neil is unkillable he’s like a cockroach
Kevin: As I have already stated twice this hour alone, this chat is for important team announcements, not idle gossip or chatter.
Kevin: That being said, I’m with Allison. Neil will never die. Andrew wouldn’t allow it.
Dan: okay, Matt and Aaron say something terrible has happened to Neil for 10 each
[Matt disliked this message]
Dan: Kevin and Allison say he is unkillable like a god for 10 each
Matt: no no, i’m just saying he could have died, not that anything terrible happened, i’m not in this at all
Matt: also we know for sure that he woke up so this bet makes no sense
Aaron: i’m raising my bet to 20 dollars and i maintain that something terrible has happened to him
Allison: i’ll take that bet he literally already woke up
Kevin: I withdraw as well. Neil is too much of a wild card to bet on.
Dan: okay it’s Aaron and Allison twenty v twenty on something terrible happening to neil.

Nicky: hey guys, sorry i haven’t caught up with the chat, we were talking with the nurse
Nicky: everything is mostly fine with neil, and he’s gonna recover from this within the week!!!!
Nicky: but he technically lost all memory of us and has no idea who we are or what he’s doing here
Dan: lmaooooooooooooo
[Nicky questioned this message]
Allison: fuck my stupid ass life

Matt: any updates nicky???
Nicky: no it’s literally been silent for the past ten minutes
Nicky: the nurse said neil might be weird and loopy and talkative but he’s just staring at us in silence
Nicky: i tried to make conversation a few times but the heart monitor started beeping faster and andrew made me shut up :(((((((((
Kevin: That was probably for the best.
Kevin: If Neil has no memory of us, he’s going to be the most paranoid version of himself.
Kevin: I’m honestly surprised he hasn’t tried to break out of the hospital room.
Matt: the night is young he still might
Nicky: omfg omfg omfg

Kevin: Nicky, what the fuck.
Kevin: What happened?
Matt: omfg i was right he’s fucking gone with the wind
Matt: i bet he jumped out of the window
Kevin: I would have guessed he sprinted into a hallway but jumping out of window makes sense.
Kevin: What floor are you on, Nicky?
Dan: no way would andrew let either of those things happen
Kevin: What’s happening, Nicky? Is Neil okay?
[Renee emphasized this message]
Allison: nicky wtf
Allison: why would you drop a text like that and then dip completely you maniac
Aaron: just give him some space

Dan: nicky what the fuck is happening right now
Aaron: neil is fine, he’s always fine
Aaron: everyone just cool it
Nicky: he’s okay it’s okay just look at this
Nicky: Attachment: 1 Video
Nicky: i missed it in the video but he started by saying he thought he didn’t swing
Renee: What’s in the video?
Nicky: just watch!!!!!!!
Matt: im watching im watching wtf
Matt: wait holy shit what the hell is happening
Dan: stop texting ur notifications are fucking up the audio on my phone
Allison: EL
[Dan laughed at this message]
Allison: EM
[Dan laughed at this message]
Allison: AY
[Dan laughed at this message]
Allison: OH
[Dan laughed at this message]
Dan: literally al sameeeeeee
Matt: that was so fucking good
Allison: this video quality is shitty and you should feel bad
Nicky: eat my ass
Dan: true i couldn’t hear half of it over ur reactions
Dan: that being said, i’m not sure i’d do better
Dan: when he asked for the kiss i lost it
Matt: he literally wants a little kiss
Matt: i couldn’t believe andrew actually kissed him tho
Dan: what were they saying at the end I couldn’t hear any of it
Nicky: me neither they were whispering so I wouldn’t hear them
Nicky: whatever it was ended in a kiss
Nicky: sweet nothings?? perhaps???
[Aaron disliked this message]
Aaron: i needed a content warning for that shit
Matt: they’re cute!!!

[Matt emphasized this message]
Allison: is that how neil flirts for real tho
Allison: cause that was appalling, if adorable
[Matt emphasized this message]
Nicky: cw: cuteness for aaron - i think they might be in lesbians with each other
Kevin: As someone who spends all my time with them, I can attest to the fact.
Kevin: They are almost certainly in lesbians with each other.
Kevin: This honestly feels fairly tame for them. I’ve heard them discuss marriage before, if only for easier hospital access.
Dan: marriage??? seriously???
Aaron: i wouldn’t put it past them
Aaron: i’m surprised they’re not already married i feel like andrew wants to lock it down sooner rather than later
Matt: i would if i was him
Matt: neil is insanely hot who knows how long he’ll stick with him without a ring
Kevin: Neil intended to stick with Andrew until he died when they made their deal. That hasn’t changed for him.
[Matt disliked this message]
Dan: is it the same for andrew?
Dan: ik they kissed but rings are a different thing
Allison: renee would know
Allison: right??
Renee: I’m not sure I’m comfortable discussing that, especially in this forum.
Renee: This was a private moment.
Renee: How would Neil or Andrew feel if they picked up their phones and read these messages?
Allison: it’s not like we’re really making fun of them
Allison: besides, neither of them is in this gchat
Allison: well, neil is but he muted six months ago cause he gets his updates straight from kev
Allison: andrew left immediately i think
Matt: can we talk about the ‘ur beautiful’ comment because that killed me
Dan: he literally thinks andrew is beautiful
Dan: not handsome, beautiful
Dan: that’s so funny
Dan: no offense aaron
[Aaron liked this message]
Aaron: no it is funny
Aaron: they make no sense
Allison: the beautiful comment was crazy but the part that got me was the way he smiled when andrew threatened him
Allison: like we all knew he was deranged about him but that’s something else
Matt: it was probably the drugs right
Nicky: no way the nurse said the drugs just lowered his inhibitions a little bit
Nicky: this is neil no memory no filters
Renee: I must say, in that context, this video really is very sweet.
Dan: yeah i didn’t think they actually liked each other under all that drama and violence
Dan: but they flirt and kiss and get along and stuff
Aaron: they flirt badly, you mean
Aaron: like excruciatingly badly
Aaron: i haven’t heard dialogue that stilted before in my life
Matt: you share those genes minyard
Aaron: yeah but i got all of the charisma genes
Aaron: you can tell because i’m dating a division one cheerleader and he’s dating someone with a number on the FBI watchlist
Dan: a ten’s a ten tho :/
[Allison emphasized this message]
[Matt emphasized this message]
[Kevin emphasized this message]
Dan: and neil’s got those eyes and that body
Nicky: also andrew doesn’t need charisma he’s got some kind of hot guy magnetism that makes hot guys wanna get up in his grill
Nicky: kevin for one
Kevin: Shut up, Nicky.
Kevin: Wait, I think that was a compliment. I’m sorry.
Kevin: Thank you, Nicky.
Nicky: yw babygirl <3
[Allison laughed at this message]

Kevin: Shut up, Nicky.
Matt: has neil said anything else since the end of the video ???????
Nicky: no he passed out after he got his smooch
[Aaron disliked this message]
Aaron: don’t say smooch
[Allison emphasized this message]
Kevin: Is Andrew still blushing?
[Dan questioned this message]
[Allison questioned this message]
Nicky: yeah lol
Nicky: he told me to delete the video so i did but only after i sent it to you guys lmaoooo
Allison: guess he doesn’t want any proof of him being human to get out huh?
[Matt laughed at this message]
[Renee disliked this message]
Renee: That’s a very uncharitable thing to say.
Renee: Andrew is human all of the time. He is no less human than any one of us.
Renee: He’s also entitled to his privacy, just like any one of us.
Renee: The ways he and Neil express affection are none of our business.
Renee: Our curiosity doesn’t entitle us to their intimacy.
Wymack: Well said, Renee.
Wymack: As usual, I have to remind you dipshits that I am in this text thread and am privy and subject to each of your terrible messages.
Wymack: Nicky, thank you for updating us on Neil’s status. It’s good to know that he’s still alive somehow.
Wymack: The rest of you, try to remember, as Kevin stated before, that this chat is only for IMPORTANT TEAM ANNOUNCEMENTS.
[This message was sent with the Slam effect]
Nicky: did you watch the video coach
Wymack: I watched as long as I needed to confirm that Neil was still alive.
Matt: you don’t have any thoughts on their secretly very romantic relationship????
Wymack: First of all, their relationship is above my pay grade, like all of your relationships. I don’t get involved in your personal affairs. I don’t care enough about you for that.
Wymack: Second of all, even if I got paid enough to think about your relationships, they’ve been openly romantic since November. It would take effort to not notice that.
Matt: say it ain’t so!!!!!!
Matt: you knew about them before we did??
Wymack: That’s an incredibly low bar.
[Renee laughed at this message]
Wymack: You people have the perceptive ability of rocks.
Wymack: Also, you abused your group chat privileges and annoyed me on my day off, so you’re all running extra laps next practice except Renee.
Wymack: I’m not telling you how many because I’m the coach and that’s my right.
[Renee laughed at this message]
Wymack: Next person to send a message that isn’t team related runs twice that number.
[Aaron disliked this message]
Nicky: wait Neil woke up again and now he’s asking Andrew if they can cuddle omg
Wymack: This team chat was a mistake.
Wymack left the chat
Dan: welp :/
Kevin: Look what you assholes did.
Allison: whatever im bored now anyways
Allison: neil and andrew’s weird relationship was more interesting before this video tbh
[Dan questioned this message]
Allison: there’s no drama really they just like each other and want to kiss
Allison: thats boring
Allison: they're boring
Matt: she has a point
Matt: context aside,,,,,,,
Matt: theyre kinda lame

[Nicky laughed at this message]
Kevin: Well, now that we’re satisfied with the relative lameness of their relationship, as well as Neil’s continued survival, we can go back to not talking to each other.
Kevin: Except at practice of course.
Kevin: Speaking of which, we should get to sleep. It’s late and everyone in this chat has practice <u> tomorrow at 5:00am.</u>
