Daily Feeds RecapsDay 84 - Tuesday - September 28, 2021Once again, they started as soon as they woke up. Azah told Xavier she'd gone through and put each of her departed friends in Xavier's place and asked herself what her decision would be if it was Tiffany, Hannah, Derek X, etc instead of Xavier. And she said "if my opinion matters, I'm completely fine, and I do think you should follow through with the deal that you made with him" [for Xavier to take Derek rather than her].She said she's aware that she makes good decisions in life except when men are involved, and she didn't want to look like she was throwing her game away for her crush if she wins and takes Xavier. She said all this, and more, horizontally from her bed, practically under the covers. And she said if she only cared about herself she'd take Derek, and she'd try to convince Xavier to take her, saying that would be simple. Xavier gave all the right responses and made all the right noises to encourage her and make her feel comfortable. Then Derek met with Azah - his announcement that he wouldn't speak to her only lasted about 12 hours. She told him about going through the roster and putting them in Xavier's place, and she said Xavier should take Derek if he wins. She said yes they'd been there for each other all season but he hadn't been there for her the past couple weeks, he'd put her down, and it hurt her a lot. He said his actions showed he was still with her and she said it still hurt her. She said she believed he'll win AFP so he'll go home with cash even if he finishes third. He stayed calm, but ran his loops again about how much he's done in there, and he doesn't apologize for any of the moves he made. And he said "nobody has a tracking Excel sheet" as far as who did what, showing he doesn't know this fanbase well at all. He said his "sole reason" for moving out of the room last night was he didn't want them to be in the same environment to think about everything (big fat lie). Derek continued running his loops about how much he'd done and poor him if he finishes third, that it'll it be hard for him to recover from all this, that he felt stupid and played, along with echoing more of her lines, and he said he felt he'd lose to either of them. They ended with a hug that kind of smashed her: she said "ow, ow, you hit me a little hard, like Kyland's massage when he was mad at me." Derek immediately retold to Xavier who asked if he'd stayed calm, and Derek said he had (true.) A bit later Derek joked to Azah "keep me, keep me" and she said "I was 70/30 yesterday and I'm like 55/45 now, so whatever you're doing is working." I don't know. From there they settled into their new routine of daytime cards, and some cautious excitement about this being their last full day in there. Azah told Xavier she wants to talk to him again, saying her talk with Derek had her confused her again. As far as I can tell, as of now, Xavier will take Derek to finals if he wins Part 3, and Azah will take Xavier if she wins. Keep it in pencil. Then Derek started hollering "DON'T YOU WANT TO WIN 750K, JUST SIT NEXT TO THE FAT MAN AND YOU'LL FUCKIN WIN! GODDAMN!" and itemizing all his comp losses, putting Azah and Derek both in hysterics. "LOOK AT ALL THE TIMES I FACE-PLANTED IN OTEV!" and "I COULDN'T EVEN ROLL A FUCKIN EGG DOWN A FUCKIN RAMP!" Azah and Xavier said he came close in that one, but he replied "I LOST!!!" Hilarious stuff, and the kind of tactic he should have been using all week, but maybe not so loudly. Afternoon was mostly napping and cuddling, including a three-way cuddle on the big blue white couch for awhile. After one nap, Azah told Xavier she had a new idea she wanted to propose to Derek. She said because he feels his fate is in their hands (true), she thought they could ask him who he wants to sit next to at finals. If that person wins, they'd take him, and if the other one wins, they'd take the other person. (What?!) Xavier did not laugh in her face, but said he didn't think it was a good idea since Derek would say whatever they wanted to hear, and he'd pick the one he thinks he can beat, which would be Xavier, and he talked her off that loony ledge. Azah and Xavier did some packing, and Derek told Xavier he should make his pitches. Xavier said he doesn't have to pitch to him and he'd already pitched to Azah, but Derek said "good karma is to pitch to both of you" so he did. His karma pitches were short and sweet. He said something about wanting to win the money to help his mom and Xavier suggested he doesn't tell Azah that because they didn't like it when Tiffany brought up her son (and also Azah might be swayed by that). Azah cried after Derek's pitch to her, and Xavier banged one of the pantry cameras pretty hard putting away the ironing board. Derek went back for a karma PS pitch to Azah who restarted her what-to-do loops, then he ran his list of accomplishments, she ran her list of ways he'd hurt her, and he said they should enjoy their last night so they "don't look back and feel like this was such a horrible day because I don't want that at all" - and he broke down in sudden sobs. He started to say if he'd done or said something wrong etc etc, and she said he has belittled her and discredited her, and it hurt. He finally apologized, but then kept going about his side of it. Xavier checked in with Azah who said she'd asked God what to do but "he ain't saying much, except you need to study." She ran her loops again about her reasons to take each of them if she wins, and said her decision isn't motivated by money, and she wants to be able to live with whatever she decides in the future. Xavier said Derek was all emotions now, and he was using guilt to get to Azah, and that's why they cut Kyland. And he said whatever she decides, he'll support it. That round settled down and they joined together at the tiny table, Azah doing her hair and nails, and Derek and Xavier playing cards. They joked, and laughed, and Azah narrated the guys' card game with sex noises. And that's how the 84th and final night of feeds should be. I don't think Azah stated her decision specifically, and she used an analogy about picking horses that I didn't follow, but I believe she finally settled on taking Xavier, if the choice is hers tomorrow.

Day 83 - Monday - September 27, 2021Derek and Azah picked up right where they left off immediately after waking up. Derek may have thought he was going to patch it up in his roundabout way but that backfired again, and they escalated to anger and raised voices on both sides, landing this one in the fights tally. The loops were the same: Derek wanting assurance Azah will take him to finals if the choice is hers but not wanting to answer her questions, and Azah reiterating that she hadn't said she'd changed her mind. Derek had also added Azah and Xavier escalating cuddle sessions to his loops, something he ranted to himself/us about before last night's confrontation. Each made their retells to Xavier, who'd been showering, and Derek asked to be warned by Xavier if he decided he wasn't going to take him. Xavier responded to that by saying whoever wins will have a lot of options.Final Three usually herd together to prevent finals talks, with whispery "take me" sessions in twos when the third is out of the room. These three keep talking about the F3 to F2 cut openly as a trio, with Derek vs Azah bickering and Xavier mediating, plus suffering through continual retells from both of them. It's something. Azah interrupted another ranty retell from Derek to Xavier by joining Derek on the big blue white couch to try to get past it. Xavier did the unheard-of-for-hamsters by putting it out in the open, saying "this is painful, for all of us really," and he added "probably for me the most because I'm watching it" -tiny violin alert- "but I can feel the pain of you two in the moment." Azah told Derek "you called me Ms Azah" indicating the severity of this morning's clash. They rehashed a bit more then all three settled into fluff talk, what they'll wear on finale, and the like. Math time: assuming $10k bonus for 3rd place is correct (it could be more), and assuming first and second place don't get weekly stipend, that means if third place wins AFP, they'd make virtually the same as second place: $10k bonus + $50k AFP + $14k stipend = $74k, versus second place's $75k. Now recall how well Derek F did in the BB Bucks votes and the generally good edits he's had. If he's third place and wins AFP, add the $7.5k he's already won for a total of $81.5k, which is more than second place. Now, also consider the delicious finale shockfaces on Derek F, Xavier, Kyland when Tiffany wins the $50k AFP - which she clearly deserves, in my opinion - and go text TIFFANY to 97979. Thanks for coming to my TED talk. After a long afternoon of them all laying around, napping, cuddling, Azah told Xavier she's been thinking about it, and she's going to pray on it, but she now thinks she'll take him if she wins Part 3. He told her he appreciates that, then said "that's huge" to himself/us as he got in the shower. (Sorry, pun not intended: that is what he said.) He then told Azah that her offer had made him emotional, and he joked "I hope you're happy." She was touched, and asked him for a hug, and of course he obliged. Azah sounded in very high spirits, as Derek snored away on the other feed. When he eventually got up things were pretty silent, with Derek and Xavier playing Jenga (symbolism!) while Azah made dinner, but if Derek noticed anything unusual or awkward he didn't mention it. Dinner came and went, followed by more rehashes about their former roomies, and cards. Azah told us while doing her hair what she'd told Xavier earlier, that she still needed to pray about it but she thought she'd take Xavier if she wins Part 3. She added she knew it may get some people upset or wondering if she's crazy, but "I don't think X should be third, I just don't." She said it had nothing to do with "nomance" and "I don't know if I'm f'd up, that I don't want to take my best friend" but that it had hit her some type of way when Derek said she didn't deserve to go to finals. And then she told Derek those same things, including about the conversation of whether she deserved to be there or not. He stayed visibly calm, answering with "mm-hmm" a lot, and ending with "you're welcome, 'cause you're here, so.. I did that to myself 'cause I coulda kept someone who at least would have potentially took me or I already knew from the get-go wasn't gonna take me." And he said "take all the time you need, I'll never kiss nobody's ass, I have did everything, it shows in my resumé and what I have done, it is what it is, I'm not gonna fight and argue." Then he hugged her, thanked her for her honesty and for letting him know, and he left. Azah was called to Diary and Derek vented to Xavier, who acted like he didn't already know Azah's decision. He said he should have kept Kyland then quickly added "but I obviously wouldn't do that to you," and said he wasn't going to talk to Azah "for the rest of this time being." He got wound up more and more as he ranted, saying Azah was making an emotional decision after all the cuddle time with Xavier, and he said he feels "portrayed" even though he had no deals with Azah. Xavier just sat quietly for most of it, echoing Derek's previous "mm-hmm" sounds. Derek kept going: "I'm still a bad bitch, it is what it is, I have to pray this girl does not win and leave it at that, that's all I can do.. I'm trying to be the bigger person, not go off.. she's like 'I don't want to make it seem like I'm going off my emotions' - what the fuck," becoming more emotional the longer he went. He started using a sing-song voice to quote Azah's lines, and he again said he wasn't going to talk to Azah anymore, no good mornings or good nights, and he wanted to destroy her study guide. Xavier told him not to do something he'd regret, not to go out with "Kyland energy." Derek packed up from the Jokers bedroom - which Azah had returned to, and he moved into the reef room. When he was called to Diary, Xavier checked in with Azah who retold the convo from her point of view, calmly. I don't know if we've ever had final days feeds like this! It's been something, whew.

Day 82 - Sunday - September 26, 2021Derek complained that he hadn't slept well due to his sore knees, and he kept waking from dreams. He said in one of them, Xavier and Tiffany had kids together and there was a bank robbery involved, and in another he'd made it to finale and was in one of the final two chairs, but nobody else was there, either in the house or the studio. Other than that, the current Groundhog Day cycle cycled along: sleeping, eating, playing cards, griping, rehashing, and rewind, repeat. And of course they talked finals in various combos of two. Azah let Xavier know she was still undecided if it's her choice, and Xavier told Azah he wasn't going to belittle her like Derek does. (He does do some of that to Derek though). And Xavier coached Derek on his jury speech, if he gets there. He was planning to list everything [he thinks] he's done all season, like he's been talking about this past week or two. His wrap-up line: "please cast your vote to evict me the winner of Big Brother."They got tie-dye supplies and Jenga. They played a couple games of Jenga and then went back to their usual cards, napping, and eating: dinner was quesadillas. Derek ran his speech a few more times, which echoed his segment of tonight's show about his fabulous social game and how he ran the season, and he interviewed himself for us with questions like his daily routine at home, his favorite colors and drinks. Speaking of tonight's show, it was hosted by Julie but not live (narrator's faulty Friday script about that is on the goof tally below), and the pre-jurors did not appear like they did on last year's version of this episode, via Zoom. Julie told us "all 16 houseguests will reunite" on the finale, which sounded like they'd all be onstage like prior seasons, but Christian posted they would attend via Zoom. Angst broke out late when Derek finally admitted to Azah that he'd have taken Xavier to F2 if the choice was his. She said she'd wanted to take him, Derek. They went back and forth a few rounds, then each talked to Derek about it, separately. I think Xavier probably just wanted to go to bed. Eventually they all did, but not as the happy-ish family of three they had been.
