meli and the bees

superstar who picks the same player every time because he has 0 stroke game and that HAS to stay a secret

captain who makes sure he's picked every single player at least once per season so they don't feel left out, then rotates through the alternates so it doesn't look like he's playing favourites

rookies on new teams always picking each other. scared and confused and imprinting on each other. the boy wonder 1OA rookie getting stars every week but always picking the other rookie even though he's a 3rd round overager

rookies who don't want to have sex, who just want to enjoy the luxury of the winner's room, with food service, sauna, hot tub, king sized bed, plasma TV and every video game console ever. wow do you think [xyz veteran player] had sex with [abc veteran player] on this bed haha it's so funny that we're just playing video games on here. haha jk unless

rookies who have junior/ncaa level beef getting a shot at the winner's room for the first time. picking each other and tearing into each other. or getting picked by others and awkward trauma bonding over first time exposure to winner's room

veteran who has been on the team forever but always turns down the room, extremely private about his life, never picks, only chosen. until out of nowhere he picks the rookie

superstar getting traded to division rival team, suddenly becoming prime meat to the team he's been terrorising for his whole career. being dogshit his first game and has the worst night of his life in the room. his 1st star on the new team makes the whole locker room flinch

best friend players who get reunited getting to pick each other again. players who fucking hate each other landing on the same team after the deadline, finding ways to hurt each other against team protocol (maybe realising they like it a little too much)

grinder bottom 6 player who never gets 1st star and has to really think about who he's going to pick between his best friend on the team or the superstar

enforcer who gets into even more fights because it guarantees him a shot at the room if they're winning

tight-knit pack teams where everyone's had sex with everyone, everyone's in everyone's business. teams ripping apart at the seams because everyone's fucking miserable having awful sex with each other

but also consider. teams that have a precedent for always nominating the worst player of the night for the room, the inescapable toxicity of not being enough even after a win

1st star picking the worst player that night to give them a pick me up. maybe it makes them feel better. maybe it makes them feel so much fucking worse

the 4th line grinder on a tanking team who tanks even harder because he desperately wants to fuck the superstar but knows he never has a shot at 1st star. the superstar who notices this and picks someone else. the superstar who notices this and picks him to fuck some sense into him

the superstar on a tanking team that only picks the worst players of the night, having to pick his point drought best friend every night
