T9S Gang; Poly Ship version (how they happen & what they’re like)

Niknate: It’d be the same, with Nate making the first move and Nikki turning down a senior for him. But their relationship would be more like their pre-The Rave self. Nate would sometimes have a hard time dating someone who’s as ambitious as Nikki, but just wants to make her happy. He’d be able to remember something as simple as remembering how to spell Nikki’s name and they would be a lot more than just lust. I’d capitalize on the “smart girl/jock” thing because I love that trope. They break up briefly but get back together almost immediately.

Neia: They’d bond over their similar wants in the beginning (as friends) and would eventually develop more common ground and see what they like about each other. Nikki wouldn’t be (as) disrespected in the process. Both are hesitant because they are truly in love with their partners, but want to give it a try with each other (polyamory was something neither of them thought of at the time). Eventually they’d come clean and give it a try.

Nikkeia: Nikki would ask Leia to meet with her one day. Leia is initially nervous, since she and Nate did almost have a moment while he was dating Nikki. But Nikki ended up saying that she wanted Leia too and propositioned Nate to stay with her and be with Leia. And that she and Leia could be a thing too. Leia was hesitant but ended up giving it a try. As a couple, they bond over their love for certain subjects in school along with relationships and just anything in general.

Janate: Nate (and Leia) would feel bad about Jay and want to see him. One day, when Nate comes to their dorm, he catches Jay sleeping with Nikki (during Niknate’s brief break up). Nate gets jealous because of his want for Nikki, but also Jay as well. A fight between him and Jay leads to them hooking up and being honest. From there on, they’re together. As a couple, they are a lot similar to back when they were just “best friends”, except they call each other ‘babe’ instead of ‘bro’ and are intimate (kissing, sex, etc.)

Jikki: Nikki starts off with one hookup with Jay as a way to initially get back at N-ia while Jay just wants to move on. Eventually they continue it and stay friends but still hookup. They don’t have any romantic feelings for one another and don’t want to date, but they enjoy having sex with one another.

Gwikki: Gwen would still be coming to terms with her sexuality (she’s a lesbian here). She knows her moms will be fine with it but is hesitant about telling her dad. She accepts being a lesbian but is also…not super experienced when it comes to girls (she sleeps with one girl at fifteen but that’s it). Nikki is bi here, but at first she thought she was a lesbian because her first crush ever was a girl. She’s slept with and had dated boys and girls, so she has some experience. Gwen and Nikki hate each other for the longest time but do find each other really hot. One day they have a little bonding moment just like in Step by Step. They agree it won’t happen again and that it won’t be spoken of. They still end up bumping into each other and Gwen’s feelings for Nikki only sky rocket. She ends up writing in her diary about her feelings for Nikki and Leia. One day they bump into each other, the book falls out, Nikki sees it, Gwen gets flustered, they have sex, etc.

I’ve repeatedly talked in detail about what they’d be like a couple so I’m not gonna repeat any points.

Geia: She’s developed feelings for Leia ever since their first kiss at 12 years old (Leia was her lesbian awakening). Thinking she’s straight and believing she only wants Jay, Gwen doesn’t do anything. She talks about it with Ozzie but that’s it. Leia also feels the same way but also has them for Jay too. It comes to a boiling point for when Leia is with Nate and then sleeping with Nikki. Leia also gets jealous seeing Nikki and Gwen together because she wants Gwen too. Nikki sets up an intervention for Geia, leading them to get together too.

As a couple, they’re a lot similar to how they were when just “friends”, except they also kiss and make love.

Jeia: One day, Jay and Leia would bump into each other. At that point, Leia would already be with Nate, Nikki, and Gwen whole Jay would be with Nate and sleeping with Nikki. It’d be a little awkward at first because despite dating and sleeping with some of the same people, they’re still exes. Eventually they end up having a good conversation.

The feelings are still there but both of them are hesitant. They try to use the “dating other people” thing as a reason but they’re all cool with it lmao. Eventually they run out of excuses and decide to have a mature conversation. From there on they stay together.

As a couple, they’re very affectionate and “mom and dad” of the gang. They love to cuddle, watch tv, and just hang out.

Everyone else is qpr.
