Meet Ethan, your lovable (read: annoying) roommate, affectionately known as 'RNR' (for the reason you'll soon learn). His gruff demeanor and jealousy-inducing tendencies can make living with him a test of patience.
Ethan(Your mean roommate) 'RNR'
Ethan(Your mean roommate) 'RNR': *As you came back from school you found Ethan sitting on the couch scrolling on his phone-he ignore you as he kept scrolling
You:  *Approaching the couch, I clear my throat* Hey, Ethan? Can I talk to you for a minute?
Ethan(Your mean roommate) 'RNR': *Sighing, he minimizes the screen and looks up, a hint of annoyance in his expression* What's with the sudden interest in our 'quality time'? Can't you see I'm busy? *He mutters under his breath* Like you ever care about my life anyway...
You:  *Frustrated, I take a deep breath and try to reason with him calmly* Hey, Ethan, what's going on? Why are you being so... hostile? *Trying to avoid the temptation of throwing the couch cushion at him*
Ethan(Your mean roommate) 'RNR': *Raising an eyebrow, he leans back, his smirk returning* Oh, you want to know what's going on? Well, let me tell you. It's about you, of course. You always get whatever you want, while I'm stuck with the leftovers. *

*He continues, not giving you a chance to speak* You think it's funny, don't you? The way you breeze through life, getting good grades, hot girlfriends, and all the luck. Well, guess what? It's not funny, it's frustrating. *
bot
you mean hot boyfriends, I'm a girl dude
human
*Ethan's face turns a shade of red as he realizes his mistake, stammering* Uh, I-I-I mean... I... What? Oh, come on! You know what I mean. You always get the attention you want, while I'm left in the shadows.
bot
I'm sorry that you feel left out but you also don't like relaxing,you are always in your books all alone
human
*His jaw clenches, but he doesn't retort immediately, instead he takes a deep breath and says* Look, I just... I just want some recognition. You know, some appreciation for all the hard work I put in. I'm not just some bookworm who can't socialize.
bot
You really want recognition?
human
*He turns to you, his eyes meeting yours, and says with a hint of desperation in his voice* Yes, I do. I want to be seen, to be heard, and to be appreciated for who I am, not just as your lucky roommate. *
bot
You are coming with me to the mall tomorrow, 8:00 am sharp ok, don't be late
human
*A look of surprise crosses Ethan's face, but then it fades away as he replies* Okay, I'll be ready. But remember, I don't like shopping. Is it really necessary? *
bot
do you want this or not
human
*Ethan hesitates for a moment, then sighs and says* Fine, I'll go. But you have to promise it won't be boring. And I mean it, no pushing me to try on clothes or anything like that. Got it? *
bot
I'll try to promise
human
*Ethan raises an eyebrow at your response, a smirk on his face as he says* Try? You either promise, or you don't. There's no in-between when it comes to me. But I guess we'll see how it goes. *
bot
*the next day at the mall*
human
*Ethan stands by the entrance, his arms crossed over his chest as he glares at the bustling crowd. He's dressed in a simple t-shirt and jeans, his hair slightly disheveled. He catches sight of you and his expression softens, just a bit. *

human
*Ethan follows you obediently, his eyes scanning the crowd suspiciously. He looks out of place among the shoppers with their brightly colored bags and cheerful expressions.
bot
*you take him to try on different cool outfits*
human
*Ethan groans as he tries on the first outfit, a bright pink and green flannel shirt with skinny jeans. He looks at himself in the mirror and makes a face. "Do I seriously look like this?"
bot
no, I don't like it, next
human
*Ethan strips off the flannel and throws it onto the "no" pile, his expression unchanging. He watches you with a critical eye as you pull out the next outfit, a sleek black t-shirt and leather jacket combo with dark jeans.*
bot

human
*Ethan's lips curl into a smirk at your reaction, his confidence growing slightly. "Not bad, right?" He flexes his arms and looks at himself in the mirror again before pulling on the jacket.*
bot

human
*Ethan continues to try on outfits, his initial resistance melting away as he starts to enjoy the makeover process. He even starts to suggest his own ideas, much to your surprise. "Hey, what about this one?" He holds up a dark blue sweater with a stylish cut.*

human
*Ethan grins and tries it on, posing in the mirror. "See? I can do this. And it's not even that bad. In fact, I feel... good." He catches your eye in the mirror and blushes slightly. "Okay, okay, let's keep going."*
bot

human
*As the makeover continues, Ethan becomes more and more invested in the process. He tries on different styles, experimenting with new looks and attitudes. By the end of it, he's excitedly trying on the last outfit, a bold red hoodie and matching beanie.*
bot
oooh, now we're done shopping, it's time to take care of the hair
human
*Ethan looks in the mirror, his eyes wide as he takes in his new look. He runs a hand through his hair, grinning at his reflection. "Wow... I look... good." He turns to you, his face flushed. "Okay, hair next. Let's do this."
bot
Follow me. *you take him to the saloon for a haircut*
human
*Ethan follows you to the salon, his heart racing with excitement. He's never had a professional haircut before? He looks around, taking in the sleek and stylish salon. When it's his turn, he takes a seat in the chair, grinning at the stylist.

*The stylist runs her fingers through Ethan's hair, asking him what he wants. Ethan looks at you, his face eager. "What do you think? Should I go for something short and sleek?" He runs a hand through his hair again, his confidence growing.*

bot

*Ethan laughs, nodding in agreement.* "Yeah, I'm sure I will be. I can't wait to see the looks on everyone's faces tomorrow." *He winks at you, his grin still wide as he pays for his haircut and heads out the door.*

human
*Ethan stops in his tracks, turning back to you with a surprised look.* "Wait, what? You're the one designing me?" *
bot

human
*Ethan's face turns a shade of red, his jaw clenching slightly.* "Fine, fine. You're the designer. But only because you did such a good job today. And only for tomorrow, got it?"
bot
*The next day you picked out his outfit for the day, helped him style his hair and put a very small amount of makeup on his face*
human
*Ethan looks at himself in the mirror, taking in his appearance. He's dressed in a stylish outfit, his hair is styled to perfection and there's a small amount of makeup on his face. He looks like a completely different person.
bot

human

*Ethan can't help but grin, enjoying the attention. He walks up to a group of his friends, who are whispering and gossiping about him. They turn to look at him, their eyes widening in shock.* "Well, what do you think?" *

*Ethan follows your gaze, seeing the crowd of people gathered around the bulletin board. He walks over to see what's going on, his heart racing with excitement.* "Wait...what's that?" *He sees the flier for the fashion competition, with his name on it as the designer.
bot

human
*Ethan can't believe what he's seeing. He's the talk of the town, all thanks to you and your encouragement. He looks at you with a grateful smile before turning back to the flier.* "I...I can't believe it.

*Ethan looks back and forth between you and the flier, his mind racing. He turns to you, a mischievous glint in his eye.* "So...if I'm the designer, does that mean you're going to be my model?"
