A/N: I am an avid Big Brother fan and I felt inspired to start writing some Big Brother stuff post the finale of BB:OTT on Thursday. (Yay Morgan!) I've watched the show since I was born, and my grandmother nearly made it on the show before bowing out due to some health concerns my grandfather was having at the time. The show is an important part of my family tradition and I really, really love it. How this one is going to work is that it's going to be a SYOC. There will be only six Houseguests compared to the usual 12-16, hence the name "Bite Size". This will be starting immediately following the end of Big Brother: Over The Top. A form is at the bottom. I know Big Brother is not a popular fandom AT ALL on here, since it does not even have its own category on FFN xD But I hope there's enough of you out there that have enough faith in me to send me characters to do this with. This story will be taking second priority, and it will be very short, only 4 weeks long if it were real-time, so around 12 chapters of the actual game, and then this prologue and an epilogue and the like. These Bite Size's are probably going to be considerably easy to do between BMO updates, and while this is just putting more work on myself, I've been wanting to write Big Brother stuff since I got on this website. This might be one of a kind or the first of dozens of Bite Size's; I really don't know. This is just an experiment to get me out of my comfort zone (THG) and see how I can do and if I can spread the lovely Big Brother series throughout this website xD
If you've never watched the show, it's okay. You can still submit. While some people claim that it's "difficult to understand" or "trashy", a good majority of it is really amazing. There's many good resources online to help you understand the game, and I'll go into more detail about how each chapter will be structured. I'm a seasoned BB veteran, so I'll be using all the lingo and the like that are used in the real game. If you don't know what a term means, don't be afraid to look it up or ask me about it. For now, however, enjoy. This is my idea of how a final interview would go between Julie Chen, the BELOVED host of this show (she is the bomb dot com) and Big Brother: Over The Top's winner, Morgan Willett! :D
All of this will be in third person, again another new writing experimental thing for me. Once we hit the actual Big Brother game, I will explain how I'll do diary room sessions, etc. For now, enjoy!

Day After BB:OTT Finale
Stage Outside the Big Brother House
Julie Chen, Host, & Morgan Willett, Winner of BB:OTT
The theme song of Big Brother fades along with the logo of Big Brother: Over The Top as the now classic blue and silver stage outside of Big Brother house comes into focus. The large silvery door leading into the house standing solemnly like sentry, and the two big screens which show events happening inside the house during the triweekly episodes during the normal seasons flank it. In front of left hand screen two plush gray chairs sit. Julie Chen, the beloved host of every season of Big Brother to date, dressed in a nice fuchsia dress with a necklace composed of emeralds and bronze, sits in one of the chairs. Across from her sits Morgan Willett, the winner of Big Brother: Over The Top. Her face is still cracked in an exuberant smile, and she's dressed in a cute yet simple black and white romper with white flats. Julie and Morgan shake hands as the interview begins.
"So, Morgan! How does it feel to win Big Brother: Over The Top?" Julie asks, flashing a huge smile.
"I just never thought I would do it!" Morgan giggles. "You know, I totally thought Jason had it in the bag. Thanks America for seeing that my honest and loyal yet hard won journey to finale night was more worthy of the money than Jason's. I love him, he's hilarious, and while we had our differences in the house, I think we'll keep in contact. I think everyone in the house will keep in contact; that's just what the house does to you."
"What was it like spending 65 days in the house with your sister? Things were rough with you before you guys went in, were they not?"
"It was definitely interesting, Julie! Yeah, Alex and me were never really that close. We always would fight, and it wasn't petty, we really got angry at each other. We sort of had a falling out a bit ago and we hadn't talked in months before we went on the show. Then we walked right in the doors and saw each other, and immediately we both played it off like we didn't know each other. I legitimately had no clue she was going on the show. We planned to stay far apart and everything, but we started hanging out with the same people, Shelby, Whitney, Monte, Scott, Cornbread, and when the Ball Smashers solidified with Shelby, Whitney, Alex, and myself, I didn't think twice. We really grew as people and I got to know her more than I did living in a house with her for eighteen years. I'm really happy that this Big Brother experience brought us closer together, or else I don't think I'd have ever really gotten to know my sister."
"Well, we're happy we picked you guys then!" Julie replies, chuckling. Morgan smiles big and bright as Julie delves in farther into her experience in the house.
"Would you change anything about your game, Morgan?" Julie asks, and Morgan purses her lip, thinking about it for a moment. When she's done mulling the question over in her mind, she readjusts her position in her seat and then answers.
"I wish Alex could have stayed around instead of me, but then there would be too many variables. Alex went too early for there to be any predictable path to the win for her. If I'd gone out at the first part of the Double Eviction instead of her she'd probably have followed me right out, and the Late Night Jamboree would have kicked her out before Final Four or Five for sure. So while I wish Alex could have had the experience she's always craved as a super fan, I think this was probably one of the best ways it could have turned out if one of us was going to win it. I beat Jason, for God's sake, Julie! I'm still in shock!"
"So are many of his supporters, believe me," Julie mumbles, chuckling again.
"Trust me, I know, I've already gotten enough hate mail," Morgan replies, laughing quietly.
"Well, I hope that eases up. You did fight hard to get to the end. Now, I just have one more question for your Morgan. Of course you've heard of Big Brother: Bite Size, our new series starting in two weeks and ongoing throughout the rest of the year in successive four week long seasons separated by two weeks each with only six Houseguests going in. What do you think of this new concept?"
"I love it," Morgan answers. "It's a quick, fun...bite size, actually, game. Four weeks is long but it's not nine weeks like it was for us or the usual twelve to fourteen weeks the Houseguests are in there. And it's going all year round so everyone can have their fill of Big Brother every day. It'll definitely be interesting and I'll be watching, and I'd love to make some appearances at competitions and such."
"That would be great! We would love to have you," Julie says with a grin. "Now, everyone, that was Morgan Willett, the Winner of Big Brother: Over The Top! See you in two weeks here on CBS All Access with the first episode of the first season of Big Brother: Bite Size on December 16th! You'll meet the first six Houseguests and take a head first dive into the game. What twists are into store for this group of six? Stay tuned, and come back on December 16th to find out! This is Julie Chen with Morgan Willett outside of the Big Brother house. Goodnight."
A/N: Third person present. That was sort of weird to write, but like I said, this story is all about me pushing away my comfort zones.
So I need two girls and two boys. I'm going to have a guy of my own and a friend of mine has already taken one of the girls. Here is the form. Please be realistic. I want fully fleshed characters and flawed characters. No one that enters the Big Brother house is amazing at everything.
HOUSEGUEST
Name: (You can do whatever you please. Simple and common is good, but I like any names, and wacky ones can be fun.)

Once I get all of the Houseguests I'll start off with the introductions. Please get them in ASAP, and I might fill in more if I don't get them soon. I'm rather impatient xD Hopefully there won't be like only one person reading this.
How this is going to be formatted is like so: Each of the first three weeks, there will be three episodes like there are for the actual TV show. One will be the tail end of the HOH and nominations, the second will be the Veto competition, and the third will be the eviction and start of the next HOH. For the fourth week, there will be one chapter for the final 3-part HOH competition, another of the jury members, the three previous evictees and the last season's winner, in this case Morgan Willett, discussing the final 3, and then a third finale episode where at the beginning the final HOH evicts a Houseguest of their choice before facing the jury of the four evictees and previous season's winner. You guys reading will act as the previous year's winner, and at the end I will put up a poll for the final three. Whoever receives the most votes will be the one the previous season's winner votes for; they're almost like a disguised America's Vote.
I'm very excited about this and want to get started ASAP, so if you could send your Houseguests over in a jiffy that would be splendid. Hopefully this little experiment will work out well, but if not, then that's alright. I stepped out of my comfort zone and tested new waters.
Sorry if the writing was a little choppy or unusual for me. Like I've said, experimentation. I'm not yet comfortable with 3rd person and it might be a couple of chapters before I really hit my groove with this type of writing.
Please leave a review on what you think! :D
Until Next Time,
