Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some questions that all you meddling people tend to ask us about our lives. Can we not have some privacy?
-Melanie
Who's the one most responsible? Who's the leader?
We would prefer it if you didn't ask such sensitive questions.
Where are your parents?
After asking around everyone in the whole house, we have concluded that NONE OF US KNOW!
So, you're orphans?
Uhh... no.
Doesnt feel like the word for us, although by definition that could possibly be the case. So, were we born from twelve beautiful mothers? Did they all abandon us or die somehow? Or, were our parents ever alive at all? Did we just appear into the land of the living?
Maybe you should stop asking too many existential questions, dude.
What happens when you all grow up?
If that does happen, we'll probably still live here.
How do you afford to feed everyone? Twelve people is a big number.
Most of us have part-time jobs. Except for Ben who works full-time.
Sometimes, our neighbours are so kind as to drop by any food close to being expired at our door, which we finish pretty quickly.
Ben 2.0 and Dustine come home with mysterious wads of money too, sometimes, but they're both pretty quiet about it.
How are none of you dead?
None of us know.
A good fraction of us has most likely died, maybe even multiple times. I mean, at least, we should have.
What have people in the neighbourhood thought about you?
They think we're annoying. Because they don't think we're capable of looking after ourselves, they try to attempt to help us sometimes.
Sometimes they think we're okay.
What about the people from school?
They think we're weird and annoying as f***.
Literally all the teachers hate Felix, Jaqui and Ben 2.0 for being annoying in class. Felix most because at least Ben 2.0 is smart (sorry) and Jaqui is funny enough to actually make the teachers laugh (sorry).
A few of us are actually kind of popular. A few.
Felix starts beef with other people, like, a lot...
You're all teenagers with hormones & stuff living in the same house. Why are none of you making out 24/7?
For some strange reason we all agree that love is completely out of our zone. And also we are pretty much the island's first Anti-Romance Organisation (kind of).
Some of us do break the pact and have dates from school.
How did you guys get the house?
I dunno, we just live here.
When did you guys get the house?
We have no idea.
