The first few months, Neil hadn't thought about it much. It just was, and he didn't really understand it enough to question it. He and Mike had found out after both Rick and Vyvyan had gone missing for a few hours, and Mike had forced Neil to find them by threatening to confiscate his astrological star chart. Eventually, after four hours of searching and more than a few panic attacks, he had found them in the cupboard under the stairs doing some... questionable things. After attempting to bleach his brain free of the images, Neil had thankfully been knocked unconscious by Vyvyan, who had then quickly and bluntly informed Mike that he and Rick were now dating. When Neil had woken up, he found Mike sat staring dumbly ahead of himself, white as a sheet and not moving a muscle. As soon as he had informed the others of Mike's strange behaviour, they told him (well more like screamed at him) that he had gone into shock and would be fine in a while. Unfortunately, that was not the case, and Neil had been forced to revive him with a pot of lentils. The stench was so putrid that Mike was back to his old self in seconds.

But moving on from that, Neil simply hadn't noticed a change in Rick or Vyvyan until recently. He wonders if it's because the change hadn't occurred until now, or it's because he simply wasn't paying enough attention. Either way, there is definitely a change in them both now. It is hard to see but if you really look at Rick and Vyvyan nowadays, you will spot several differences to their behaviour now and their behaviour earlier.

Before recently, Rick and Vyvyan never showed a morsel of affection while in front on Mike and/or Neil. Even after their relationship had begun, they were incredibly discreet. But now, occasionally, Rick will say something and Vyvyan will laugh, or Rick will smile at Vyvyan. Watching them together now is like watching two pieces of a puzzle make up the full picture. Their personalities are very similar and incredibly different all at once, they don't seem to realise this either. Sometimes Neil wonders how long it will take for them to realise, or if they ever even will.

When Neil thinks about it, their attitudes have changed slightly as well, but in different ways. Rick has begun to grow up a little, not a lot, but a little more every day. Most of the time he is the same, but if an actual serious occasion arises, he matures a little. Then goes back to being a complete bastard the next day, but hey, it's a start!

Vyvyan has mellowed a little, Neil thinks. He's still violent and utterly insane, but on the rare occasion that he and Rick show affection towards each other, he looks almost at peace. Of course this is only temporary and after the moment has passed, he resumes smashing things up, but again, it's a start!

If Neil is honest, he thinks they are good for each other. Who knew that an aggressive, violent punk like Vyvyan and a spoiled, immature brat like Rick could bring out the best in each other? He doesn't even think about if they break up, because he is certain it won't happen. He doesn't have a clue how he knows this, but he does, and who is he to argue with fate? Besides, they suit each other. Neil doesn't understand how they suit each other, all he knows is that they do.
