I don't mean to sound ungrateful to Jaclyn or anything because I'm sure she was a large part of why Bobdawg voted to keep me instead of Sandra, but what she did to Hope was a little dirty.
Hope and I were tight, or as tight as two people are who end up on opposite tribes for most of the game and didn't really talk with each other can be. I feel like she understood me more than Jaclyn does and was more level-headed than Jaclyn is.
I have to agree with what Elyse or Morgan said last night in the chat about Jaclyn giving the idol to Alec so she could take out Hope because she was threatened by my relationship with Hope. But, it's over and done with and I'm going to move on.
And have I ever! While those stupid bitches were arguing with each other I went to Alec and Bobdawg and Pete to see about getting a five-person alliance set up against Brenda, Elyse and Morgan. It's a long shot because Alec and Pete are original Loa Seki, but Alec seems to think he owes Jaclyn and also, his allies voted against him. According to Alec, Pete is a floater. I was willing to see if I could get him to stick with one alliance by being as real with him as possible. All it took was Pete and I bonding over the idiocy of the girls and skipping over actually bonding over anything but the game, because let's be real, he's just as much of a no-bullshit person as I am.
All he wanted was confirmation that Jaclyn and Alec were in, which led me to believe Bobdawg had already spoken with Pete about the alliance. Cool, he's one step ahead, that's great. So that's current events.
I feel like I should elaborate on Jaclyn's lies to Elyse and Morgan. First of all, I was prepared to vote out Bobdawg when we talked about it last night. I will completely admit to becoming wishy-washy for the first and last time of this game because I had forgotten how much of a great person Bobdawg is, because he's been busy or whatever and we haven't really talked, but that night he and I had a great bonding conversation while Sandra was watching football and not really engaging. So it got me to thinking, why am I willingly voting out a Malaga member who has seemingly had my back for a majority of the game?
So I went to Jaclyn and told her I was on the fence and was leaning toward voting Sandra because of my conversation with Bobdawg. So we should vote Sandra. I went to bed. I wake up to a PM from Jaclyn and sign on to talk with her. She tells me Sandra threw me under the bus to Bobdawg. This solidifies that I was right about wanting to vote for her. I tell Jaclyn to tell Elyse because I'm busy.
Elyse runs to Morgan, who literally can't do anything from her side except bitch me out and they end up ganging up on me. I tell them the truth. It comes off as shady, I completely understand where they are coming from, I apologize. They end up targeting Jaclyn, but Jaclyn makes it blatantly obvious she is using her idol. So there are two votes that come up with my name. Whatever, I'm still here and Sandra is gone.
What makes me laugh hysterically inside is because Jaclyn did give her idol to Alec to use, I'm Jaclyn's lapdog. Even though I've been sending my messages to other people through Jaclyn. She has literally been speaking on my behalf, why? Because I am the damn HBIC here despite Jaclyn going rogue and not telling me what she was doing. Rightfully so, because I would have freaked out because she decided to target Hope instead of say Brenda or Morgan!
I'm not entirely happy with Jaclyn, but I am showering her with praise and telling her what a good job she did and I will continue to nuzzle up and cuddle and do whatever it takes to keep her on my side because as far as I'm concerned, she's a huge wild card right now. I also don't know who she has told about my power, but I would hope she was truthful about keeping that between us. I have no idea if I would use it on her at this point, I just know I cannot use it on myself.
As far as how I want the beginning rounds of this merge to play out, I want Elyse gone straight-away. Not because she voted for me, but because she knows how to put two and two together better than Morgan or Brenda. She is dangerous and no amount of me playing ignorant is going to put her on my side. She is going to side with Morgan and Brenda. If I was going to pick who I wanted to work with from the three, it would be Brenda, and I think I will need to before too long, but I would like to see Elyse and Morgan out first. The reason I would pick Brenda is because she seems the most clueless of the three and the most willing to let bygones be bygones. She comes off to me as level-headed. She is in no way a new Hope to me, but if need be, I think I could get her to vote with me once her allies are out of the game.
Kind of hoping I can find the tokens quickly tonight, I'm pretty sure that is what the challenge is going to be about, searching and finding and posting tokens to eliminate other players. I would love to be immune because it's a dicey merge situation right now and I don't want to be caught in a vulnerable situation. My concern a bunch of tokens and then Jaclyn finding mine and posting it. That would be my worst nightmare. Her being immune could make me target numero uno because I'm seen as Jaclyn's lapdog.
Anyway, I think I've been long-winded enough and need to go eat. So if anything else happens, I'll keep you posted. Tootles.
