Hello beloved phistorian! Phandom question: I know dnp formally shared their house purchase in a late-2020 stream and said they’d been working on it since 2017.
I have also gathered that the phandom basically already “knew” they were buying/building a home as early as 2017-2018. How did people know? Did they say something, or was there some other evidence, or was it lucky speculation?
yeah it was incredibly obvious what was going on and they weren't really being secretive about it asdafsdggskj
basically they spent the end of 2016/early 2017 complaining about the apartment, specifically the lack of storage. dan in january 2017 saying they were gonna do some "life things" soon and that storage was "literally on the agenda" (x) and they were going to "find out if there's a better way to live" (x)
and then the were just generally weird (in a good way) and seemed excited about the future before moving into the 2 secret flats/announcing they moved out of the first london apartment
BUT THEY WERE ALSO WEIRD ABOUT THE 2 SECRET FLATS!
dan said in the first liveshow in the filming flat that it was not a "forever home" (x) and that they still couldn't get a dog because they were still renting but "when a house is bought" (x) and even after they settled into the living/filming flats that they pretended was one flat dan constantly complained about renting and how you should buy if you can (x) also him talking about how terrifying it is to get a mortgage
they didn't really decorate either flat the first year or so (because the phouse was slated to be done in 2018 (x) so they really thought they'd only be in the weird double flat limbo for a year tops) and they kept the furniture that came with the flats which felt Weird for them
also my favorite unserious proof was them getting Real into home decor/renovations in 2017..almost as if...it was something they were doing irl like this sims episode of all time (x)
