baby, you're so classic

Hey Auradon! I'm Ray Radcliffe, or that guy you always see playing guitar in the hallways between class. I grew up on a Dalmatian Plantation in the countryside, but now I'm here in Aura Central following in my dad's footsteps and becoming a musician. The only thing I love more than singing and dalmatians is food, particularly pizza. If you give me pizza, there's a good chance we'll be friends for life.

Yzla: Don't "Oh, Yzla" me! I need to "Oh, Ray" you! I know there's /something/ there and they enjoy each other's company, that's not a secret, but everyone back home had alliances, it doesn't always mean something romantic or, you know, sexual. Do you really think there's something like that with Zevon and CJ? Because I don't see it but if you see it maybe I'm not looking hard enough. But really? Yay! Congrats to you to waiting out the stars.

Ray: I do a lot of stupid things, you should get your chance soon enough. Well, does Z have any other alliances? And I mean it's kind of telling that he's super willing to say Diego and I don't matter but he says that cJ does. For him that's basically an "I love you". As far as sex goes, I haven't opened that can of worms with him. I don't even want to know what goes on in his bedroom. thanks! hopefully they'll stay on my side for a while and throw you something good soon too.

Luciana: Pfft you should run with him. Get that cardio up. I know Dude likes to run, go with him?

Ray: I don't think no cardio to running is the right transition. If I'm going to do some kind of cardio, it's going to be dance. Although walking with Carlos could be fun!

Zevon: That's true, he's not smart enough to be an evil mastermind, I'm the one with the brains for that shit.

Zevon: Pfft. I know that girl's gone soft but there's no way she's soft enough to catch gross-ass heart feels for a dude with a caterpillar on his lip. Hey, maybe she'll convince him to sign away his spot in the band for her instead. Upgrade, am I right?

Ray: I love how we're just ignoring the burying the hatchet part of that sentence. But I'm going to ignore the evil mastermind part so I can have plausible deniability in the future.

Ray: A lot of girls like facial hair. Hopefully no-one I'm interested in, but a lot of girls! We're not signing away Diego's spot in the band. We're a trio or we're nothing.

Penny: That makes sense! It doesn't sound like it was exactly encouraged where they come from, does it? Maybe all he needs is more friends to teach him the value of friendship - should I invite him to hang, do you think? And aww, that's so sad of him to assume. I'm glad to report no one else believes it though! I'm just glad to know you, Ray :) You're really good people lol

Ray: No, but I think a lot of people have adjusted! Like Diego accepts the fact that we're friends at least, even if he tries to remind me I'm annoying on the regular. Do you have any VK friends who are weird like this? Uh, maybe like a group hang. Yeah, but I think it's because it's what he'd do. Although maybe only if it was Diego's gf. I'm really glad to know you, Pen. You're like the nicest person in the world AND you have cute bunnies. It's a real win-win.

Mistletoe is great for a bit of fun and all, but I’m surprised people are so obsessed with it. I mean there’s literally so many other elements of Christmas that are much better. Unpopular opinion but my favourite part of the holiday is spending it with the people I love most in the whole world. 

[rayradcliffe]

Uh, that’s so not an unpopular opinion. At least it isn’t with me! But I wholeheartedly agree there’s been too much mistletoe debate this year. You know what people should be debating? Christmas music. There’s so much of it and we need to establish an undeniable top bitch song.

[juliannehood]

I can’t believe it’s December already and Christmas is just around the corner! Honestly, this has to be my favorite time of the year, everything is so pretty with the lights and decorations, the music is so fun, I love to go shopping for gifts for all my family and friends, and it’s just an all around cheery time of year! Speaking of gifts for friends though, I have yet to start my shopping which of course is so not me, I know. But on the plus side, you all can get in your wish list items so I know what to look for when I’m out and about. Not that I don’t know all of those I’m closest to enough to pick something on my own, but it’s always nice to get someone exactly what they want, too.

[rayradcliffe]

I also love Christmas! The music is just so on point and the twinkle lights feel like optimal creativity lighting. Oh man, I can always think of a thousand things I want until someone asks me and then my mind goes blank. What do you want for Christmas, Chlo?

[rayradcliffe]

Luciana

She’s cute and @lucianadevil‘s definitely got some game, but I’m not doing anything to break up the band. Especially not dating @thediegodevil‘s family.

[rayradcliffe]

Chloe

I don’t know @chloeoftheball very well but her family seems pretty cool. I don’t know if I’m cut out for life as a crown prince by marriage though. It seems like a lot of pressure for someone who still feeds food that he doesn’t like to his dog under the table.

[rayradcliffe]

Yzla

@yzlachanca is great and she’s given me some really bomb predictions about my life via the planets. But I don’t think the stars see any romance in our future.

[rayradcliffe]

Hannah

I, uh, think you’ve maybe got the wrong person here. I mean @hannaharendelle is very nice and obviously pretty but I kind of prefer someone else with her face.

[rayradcliffe]

Penny

I ship it too. Friendship it. @pennylanewilde

[jordanjinn]

Anonymously tell me who you ship me with and I'll tell you if I agree.

[fortitsngiggles]

Unless you hit me in the face with a brick that says “I’m flirting with you,” I’m most likely just gonna think you’re being nice.

Penny: 😲 !!! But maybe he's just one of those people who doesn't think that guys and girls can be 'just friends'? And maybe he doesn't know I have a boyfriend? Or maybe it's because he grew up on the Isle and they just had gang activity over there adskfl wahtever the case, I hope he didn't bother you about it too much. I like being friends without the benefits too! We're really good at it lmao

Ray: I think maybe part of the issue is he just doesn't believe in friends period? Like him, Diego, and you are like the people I'm closest to outside of the fam. And if you asked him how he felt about me lmao I'm worried about what he'd say. Oh, he knows you have a girlfriend. He basically insinuated I was going to pull a Mr. Steal Your Girl. I don't really care that he thinks it, I was just worried that other people might too! Like you specifically. Friendship IS the benefit.

Penny: Oh gosh that's all so weird? Because you aren't annoying and Nik isn't mean so I don't know what to think. Maybe I'll ask him? Or is that weird? Like "hey, did you spill your drink on Ray on purpose, sweetie?" sounds so bizarre sndbjssn. Thanks for telling me though!!!

Penny: It's so weird! Your family never seemed the type to hold grudges against villains but maybe Ronnie just needs time. And LOL I like Zevon's eyes, crazy and all.

Ray: It depends who you ask, but I have it on good authority that I'm definitely annoying sometimes. I'm sure he's not usually mean, it must be some kind of misunderstanding. I don't know, I feel like probably? But either way it's probably going to be weird because you either ask him and it's weird because he says no. Or you ask him and it was on purpose and it's weird. Or you don't ask him and feel weird forever because you're not sure wtf he's about. LMAO IT DOES SOUND WEIRD. Maybe there's a better way to work it into conversation? Idk.

Ray: Idk, sometimes I think Ronnie's just upset about the band in general and using the whole "DIEGO IS EVIL" thing as a cover. Well of course you do, you're nice.

Yzla: Oh no, Zevon and CJ aren't like that. I'm pretty sure they're just a partnership, thank God - not that I dislike the girl or anything, but I don't know, I like good influences around my brother and she feels stuck in the bad lol. And I'm sorry to hear that! Scorpio is in Venus so its probably not even you're fault that you're sending or getting mixed signals if that makes you feel better.

Yzla: Haha yeah, fingers crossed!

Ray: Oh Yzla, I'm probably the most oblivious thing in the world and even /I/ know there's something going on there. They literally just are allergic to romance so they label it as an Anarchist Partnership to make it seem "cool and edgy" and not like they actually enjoy spending time together. Well, I guess I got my signals unmixed so we'll see what Scorpio has in store for me this week!
