#brunch date

Weekend highlight - breakfast date with the bestie 💖

I’m not even talking major revamping like changing character designs, motivations and so on (that would be another major post), just some structural changes within the overall plot of the season.

We get to watch the first coupling up as it happens

Make Kelly and Bruno OG Islanders, they’re coupled up when we get in

MC gets in as soon as the first coupling up happens as the eleventh Islander OR MC takes out all the boys on a (sit down, have drinks and talk) date during that first night

MC has 24 hours to pick a boy to couple up and everyone knows it

Girl left single due to MC picking her partner stays in the Villa, no one else recouples during that

Give us the option to be in a friendship couple if we’re not vibing romantically with anyone so far. They could go out on a daytime date the next day and establish that or develop further romantically

On day 3, Youcef and Oliver drop in - they both need time to develop worthwhile stories with MC (Youcef is too closed off/scared to open up at the beginning, he just stays behind this whole “I’m so sexy and smoldering” armour; and if Oliver’s whole thing is being friends first then let’s give him the time for that). They drop in during a party and there’s some group activity like truth or dare

On day 4, they each get to pick two girls to go on (separate) dates in the hideaway terrace/at the garden outside the Villa driveway that night (both choose MC as at least one of the dates, of course)

On day 5, Some cheeky kissing challenge happens (like rate the best kisser) and people start showing signs of wanting to switch couples, maybe some minor drama happens

First full girls’ choice recoupling on day 6, girl left single by MC gets to pick first, single boy is dumped. If MC coupled up with a girl (Najuma/Kelly), then Islanders have to vote to dump one of the single boys

MAJOR GRAFTING AS EVERYTHING IS HAPPENING. Just get MC to circle around and chat to people throughout the Villa, that’s what they’re there for. The bestie moments are nice, but I want to interact with everyone, even the people I may not like as otherwise how am I gonna get to know them?

On day 7, they get a silly challenge, like one of those gross out food ones or body paint/slime/dive into water

On day 8, Juliet and Valentina hit the Villa while the girls are out having brunch/having a spa day and start stirring shit up (that’s why they’re there). Give MC the opportunity to befriend them as the previous girl bombshell and strategize together

On day 9, they take boys out on those dinner dates (one boy prepares starter, another the main, the third the dessert) while the OG girls need to stay inside and fret (or not)

On day 10 they have a cheeky challenge where they have to kiss person whose secret is about and a party

On day 11, it’s a boys’ choice recoupling. The girl not picked is dumped. If MC had been with a girl before, they’re actually forced to separate but they can remain “together” while in official (friendship) couples with the boys. They can choose to sleep outside on the daybeds, for instance

On day 12, new cheeky challenge, like those silly obstacle course ones where they get wet and need to make out at the end. It’s possible to pick someone other than their couple and possibility for drama ensues

Day 13 is a chill day, something silly like playing around in the pool or games like Never Have I Ever

Day 14 there’s dates all around. DIFFERENT DATES FOR DIFFERENT LIs - like Oliver would be something to do with nature, Youcef would be a sit down dinner date, Bruno is something fun like paddle boarding and so on

Day 15: CASA AMOR! Give us six new hot guys to interact with. Bonus: Dylan could be a CA boy (minus all the red flags) while Tiffany is a CA girl

Day 16: Villa vs Villa challenge then cocktail party

Day 17: the video with suggestive clips from original boys drops in first thing in the morning, then they have brunch and Stick or Switch recoupling in the evening. Single Islanders remain in the Villa for now

Day 18: potentially awkward drinks date if a CA girl (could be Tiffany) stole your original partner (if we were with a girl and just in a friendship couple with one of the boys it’s a great drinks date with possibility for flirting as well) and integration party to get to know new Casa people

Day 19: dumping of least voted Islanders (possibility of breaking up couples if one is liked and the other isn’t). If MC was left single during Stick or Switch, usual deal where MC picks one Islander up for dumping. Final numbers are six couples, so depending on how many couples were formed during Casa Amor a lot of people could be going home then

Day 20: Tom and Cora invite people out on dates before even hitting the Villa. There’s a cocktail party in the evening to welcome them

Day 21: silly couple’s challenge or something like Most Likely To hosted by Tom and Cora

Day 22: chill day with some game like volleyball or a barbacue or something like Talent Show for integration

Day 23: Boys’ choice recoupling, but Tom and Cora pick first - MC of course gets stolen by one of them

Day 24: Brunch date in the morning, heart racing challenge in the evening

Day 25: They go out to a beach party where Returning Islanders (boy dumped in day 6 and girl dumped on 11) rejoin the group. Least favorite couples are revealed at the party (Tom/Cora and respective partners are immune from voting). Islanders need to choose to dump one couple.

Day 26: Mean Tweets/Movie Night - let’s stir shit up and ramp up the drama with unseen bits and shocking developments coming to light. This is where Dylan’s true nature could come out if we chose to recouple with him after Casa Amor (I’d still rather he be the perfect guy until we win the game and he chooses the money)

Day 27: The girls choose who they want to go out on dates with and we have final girls’ choice recoupling. If we’re with a girl, two of the boys couple up as well (either as friends or romantically, there’s possibility for that with some of the boys)

Day 28: Baby challenge then dumping of 2 least favorite couples (we get to influence who stays)

Day 29: Meet the Parents and Final Dates (gimme something glamorous that I’d never get the chance to do again in my life!!) then final dumping down to four couples (we choose who stays)

Day 30: Prom prep (shopping, dance lessons, speech writing) and Prom

Day 31: The Final

12:45 p.m. at Shiyuba's Osaka Arts Restaurant.........

Lucas: (Smiles in Glee at the Food He Ordered and is Eating Now) Woow!~ You weren't kidding when you said the ramen here is to die for, Big Sis Shiho. They're so good~

Shiho: (Giggles Softly) I'm glad you like!~ It's been a long time since Ann and I came to this place. It's nice to see most of their meals haven't lost their touch since then. (Starts Eating One of the Ten Yakitori Sticks She Ordered Before Placing her Hand on her Cheek, Enjoying It With Pure Delight) (Mmm!~) Lucas, you have GOT to try one of these Yakitoris. (Hands Lucas One Uneaten Yakitori) They are heavenly!~

Lucas: (Takes a Bite Off of the Yakitori Given to Him Before Puttong on a Wide, Delighted Smile on his Face, Falling in Love with the Meal Instantly) They areeee!~ This mlis the best food I ever tasted!~

Shiho: Yes!~ I knew we made the right decision coming here for our brunch date~

Lucas: (Happily Nodded in Agreement) Mmhmm!~ It's a real shame Big Sis Ann isn't here to eat any of this with us.

Shiho: ('Sigh') Yeah, but modeling duties calls for her sometimes, you know? I'll just save her a few leftovers after we leave we there though. There's no way I'm gonna have her miss out if any of this greatness.

Lucas: I'll save her mines as well.

Shiho: The ramen you ordered? You sure?

Lucas: (Happily Nodded) Yeah, I don't mind. Ann works he'd hardest on every runway she's a part of. She deserves the best meals around. (Grabs his Chin While Thinking) Unless....(Eyes Begins to Widened a Bit at the Realization) The bowl! I can't take it with me, can I?

Shiho: (Gives Lucas a Reassuring Smile on her Face) We'll figure something out before we leave out of here, don't worry. You're a real sweetheart, you know that, Lucas?

Lucas: (Giggles a Bit) So I've been told~I just do what I cam for the people I love and care about, you guys included.

Shiho: (Heart Begins to Melt in More Happiness) I know. (Reaches Over to Playfully Ruffles the Top of Lucas' Hair) And we love you so, so, so much for it too~

Lucas: (Giggles More Ticklishly by the Hair Ruffling) I love you guys too, Shiho~ Now quit it!~ I just combed my hair earlier this morning.

Shiho: (Giggles as Well) Oh relax~ I'll be sure to comb it back to tip-top shape once we head back home. Promise.

Lucas: Promise accepted. But uhh....Shiho, can I ask you something?

Shiho: Sure. Ask away.

Lucas: Do you hate Easter?

Shiho: (Taken Aback a Bit by the Question Given to Her) No, not completely. Why?

Lucas: (Frowns a Bit) Well, you seemed a bit out of it when I told you "Happy Easter" earlier this morning. Almost like it's been bothering you for some time now.

Shiho: (Puts on a Sheepish Frown on her Face) Oh geez.....Was it really that noticeable?

Lucas: Kinda? You seemed like you were smiling like you usually do at first there. Unless.... ('Gasps') You wasn't sad this entire week, were you?

Shiho: (Quickly Gives Lucas a Reassuring Smile While Shaking her Hands in Front of Her in Defense) No honey, I wasn't sad at all this week, honest. (Frowns Again) But.....I'd be lying if I say the Holiday itself didn't slightly bother me in any way.

Lucas: (Stares at Shiho For a Few Seconds Before Speaking) That Kamoshida guy has something to do with this, doesn't he?

Shiho: (Eyes Begins to Widened in Genuine Surprise) Oh wow.....You are really on a roll today, kiddo. I'm kinda impressed honestly.

Lucas: (Quickly Bows at His Big Sis) I-I'm sorry! It was only a lucky guess, I swear!!

Shiho: No, baby! You did nothing wrong at all, I promise you!! ('Sigh Heavily') But in all honesty, yeah. He did play a part in this unfortunately...... And it really sucks too because I used to like Easter a lot growing up, but ever since all the times he started messing with me....and the day that I....(Looks Down at her Drink Somberly) you know, jumped......I've never felt the same about the holiday ever since. I wish it didn't, but....('Sigh') It is what it is I guess.

Shiho suddenly hears the sound of sighing as she looks up to see Lucas looking more bothered than she does right now.

Shiho: Lucas? You look upset, what's wrong? You're not worried about me, are you?

Lucas: I am, yeah, but....well....('Sigh') To be honest with you, I kinda feel the need to find that jerk and punch him.

Shiho: Lucas, I-Wait. (Eyes Widened Again) What!?

Lucas: Kamoshida. I wanna punch him in his dumb face. Like, REALLY hard.

Shiho: (Stares at Lucas for a Few More Seconds Before....).......Pfffft AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Oho my godhahahahaha!~

Lucas: (Starts Pouting) Shihoooo, stop laughing! I'm being serious here!!

Shiho: (Finally Tries to Calm Herself Down From All the Laughing) Sorry, sorry.....I shouldn't have laugh like that....You're the most serious little guy I know. As well as the cutest~ (Playfully Winks at Lucas)

Lucas: (Crosses his Arms Woth a Single Nod) ('Hmph') That's right!.......Heyyy.

Shiho: (Giggles Some More) It's true, isn't it?~ ('Sighs Relaxingly') But no, seriously this time. (Smiles Softly at Lucas) I'm really happy and thankful for you looking put for me, Lucas, truly. But you don't have to worry about that nasty jerk anytime soon.

Lucas: (Lowers his Arms Down) You sure?

Shiho: (Happily Nodded) Positive. He's been locked up for a long while now, before Ann and I graduated actually. He won't be bothering me for a very long time. (Looks Down at her Hands Before Balling it Up into a Fist and Putting on a More Determined Look on her Face) And I'll make sure it'll stay that way if I have to.

Lucas: (Starts at Shiho For a Brief Second Before Sighing) Okay. But Me, Ann, and the rest of our friends will always be by your side whenever you need us, got it!?

Shiho: (Heart Begins to Melt in Genuine Happiness Before Nodding Again) Right. But let's not dwell on that mess any further for now, shall we? Especially now that I have a special surprise to share~ (Takes Something Out From her Pocket)

Lucas: Ooh really?~ What is it?

Shiho: (Shows Lucas a Silver Ring From Inside the Black Tiny Box She's Holding) Take a look at this.

Lucas: (Struck in Awe at the Ring in Front of Him) Woooooah.......That ring.....It looks so shiny and pretty~

Shiho: It sure does. Makoto-San and I went shopping a while back and I picked this up along the way. (Smiles Down at the Ring) And I'm glad I did. This is the most beautiful, breathtaking ring I have laid my eyes upon.

Lucas: Yeah.....Wait. If you got that ring, then-('GASPS') T-T-Then.....T-That means-

Shiho: (Smiles Brightly) Yep!~ I'm planning on marrying your big sis this year!~ B-But not right now obviously. I'm planning to do so on her birthday, which gives me all the more time I need to prepare myself for the inevitable. Which is why I want you keep this a secret until then, okay?

Lucas: (Quickly Nodded in Agreement) R-Right! Of course! I-I've never been the best at keeping secrets as a whole...(Salutes to Shiho) But I'll do my very best to keep this one under wraps for you, Big Sis! Count on it!

Shiho: (Giggles Softly) You sure will!~ But there's something I wanna ask for you in return.

Lucas: Sure, what is it?

Shiho: (Gently Grab Hold of Lucas' Hand) Lucas, would make us the happiest soon-to-be brides in the world and become our Flower Boy?

Lucas: (Eyes Slowly Starts To Widen Up) Flower Boy?.....(Eyes Starts Sparkling) Me?~

Shiho: (Happily Nodded) Of course. I honestly couldn't think of anyone else more perfect for the role than you, sweet-

Lucas suddenly gets up from his seat.

Shiho: tie?

Lucas looks up that Shiho with now teary eyes in a shaky posture before rushing himself over to give her the biggest hug of his life..

Lucas: YES! YES! Of course I'll be your Flower Boy!~ ('Sniff') I won't mess it up for you all, I swear!!~

Shiho: (Hugs Lucas Back) ('Shh Shh Shh') Hey now, you don't need to worry about all of that.

Lucas: ('Sniff') Are you sure?

Shiho: Positive. We'll rehearsal our roles when the time comes. And I know, in my heart, that you'll become the best Flower Boy that ever live on this planet.

Lucas: ('Sniff') Okay!....('Sniff') I'll do my very best. ('Sniff') I'm so happy for you, Big Shiho! ('Sniff') I love you and Ann so much!~

Shiho: (Starts Tearing Up Herself) We love you, baby~ ('Sniff') Thank you so much~

Happy Easter Everyone!!!
