#also`i've never been on that ghost tour but it looks amazing and fuckin terrifying

[mattcullen]

Babe talk to me about charmer and nurseydex and what happens when they go on double dates!!!

BABE YES (also i love people calling me babe idk why but ty)

(the timeline that i’m working with btw is the same as my post about nursey and dex sharing a room and in that nursey and dex got together on nursey’s birthday in their junior year - this isn’t really relevant but CONTEXT)

okay so they go on double dates a lot

they just have a great time together guys

their first double date is kind of an accident tho

it’s the beginning of march so nursey and dex have been together for about 2-3 weeks

honestly it’s barely a date tbh

dex and nursey decided to sneak back to the rink after a late practice just to play some shinny/mess around/make out pressed up against the boards 

chowder and farmer kind of have a similar idea (tho less hockey more teaching farmer to skate without holding onto the boards/chris) and show up about half an hour after n&d

there’s kind of an awkward pause when c&f step on to the ice and everyone realises what’s happened 

this is only broken when farmer tries to skate forward and v dramatically windmills and lands on her ass

from there nursey and dex abandon the puck and their sticks and help chowder drag farmer around the rink

she eventually gets her balance and begins to pick up speed, causing an impromptu race that ends in them all collapsed in a heap giggling after chowder tries to swipe at nursey’s knees, who in turn grabs at farmer who is immediately in front of dex

it’s dark by the time they head back to the haus and they’re all leaning on each other, chowder and farmer holding hands and dex’s arm wrapped around nursey’s waist, it’s cute okay??

as they part ways in the hallway chowder states that this was the nicest double date he’s ever been on

and so starts the barrage of group dates

under the cut bc again i have no self control

farmer drags them all to karaoke one night

chowder and nursey are Excited

dex gets very drunk

dex has a surprisingly good voice for someone who has been mainlining margaritas since he arrived

they don’t talk about farmer and nursey’s painful 2am rendition of total eclipse of the heart

they don’t

they get pizza a lot together

pineapple discourse is banned after half an hour into their first pizza date

(nursey and chowder are for, farmer and dex are against)

(dex’s exact words were pineapple is a fruit and fruit is a sin and sin does not belong on pizza)

(dude i think u burst a vein in your head)

dance class

nursey thinks it would be fun, dex wants to be swallowed by the earth (but he’s also seen people dance the tango and he rly wants to dance the tango w nursey so he’s powering through)

nursey invites chowder and farmer too so dex won’t be as embarrassed

they learn a lot of things that evening:

chowder has extremely sensual hips

farmer can spin really well in heels

nursey is really good at the tango

dex can pop a boner just about anywhere

this is another double date they don’t talk about 

but nursey thinks about a lot

they travel down to barnstable, ma for the ghost hunter’s tour for halloween their senior year

they all manage to finish it but nursey almost has to duck out before the jailhouse at the end

he only goes in after dex promises to stand behind him the whole time with his arms around his waist because “this way nothing can sneak up behind you derek, it’s like having your back to the wall” “yeah if the wall if tall and muscular and hot” “i’m sorry i thought you were scared do you not need me to hold you” “no yes i’m very scared please hold me forever oh my god”

farmer is a rollercoaster enthusiast and drags them to six flags new england o f t e n

nursey’s favourite coaster is wooden cyclone bc he loves the whole wooden supports thing and the sounds they make and he’s not the biggest fan of heights so he likes that it’s very twisty

dex however loves tall rollercoasters so his fav is superman (nursey only goes on it w him the first time they go, after that they establish a pact that yes they love each other but it’s not worth dragging nursey onto a rollercoaster that’s going to give him a panic attack, ever)

farmer’s go to is mind eraser. she is immediately drawn to any inverted coaster bc she loves to feel like she’s flying completely unsupported

chowder loves pandemonium - actually he loves riding pandemonium at night bc it’s all lit up! and it’s different every time!! and it’s so fun!! and yeah okay you spin a lot and wow farmer you don’t look too good do you need to sit dow-okay you threw up cool do you want some water? 

they tried cinema double dates but they’re both those couples that pick shitty movies and then go and make out in the back row so the only time they go together it kinda becomes a competition to see who can hold out on making out with their partner the longest like some weird celibate game of chicken and in the end they decide it’s probably best if they go to the cinema as separate couples

they hang out at the beach/pond together a lot

farmer likes to go all out and wear a bikini and shorts, lie on a towel with a floppy hat and a book

this rubs off on the rest of them and soon they’re the weirdos in the swim gear by the university lake sunning themselves in mid april

it gets so bad that one time nursey and chowder bring a bucket and spade and try to make a sandcastle out of mud

okay i’m out of ideas but feel free to add more
