The sequel to Total Loud Island entitled Total Loud Action is on AO3 by Shuckle2001.
I am enjoying it. Jst like in canon TDA; it got me hating Geoff and wishing Bridgette had been done for him for good. I decided to be careful in writing this to not give out spoilers for the fic but be warned that it refers to events in the fic without getting into detail.
I admit that when I was originally watching TDA on TV; I didn't watch the Aftermath episodes and only did so for the first time a couple of years ago on Netflix. First I checked out the third one and Geoff in the first few minutes... Quickly became my 2nd most hated TD male after Scott. Seriously these 3 episodes soured Geoff for me to the point where I prefer the Cadets ending in the Ridonculous Race. I know that Bridgette shows her flaws including the cheating and falling into Alejandro's charms during World Tour but him in these 3 episodes... She could do so much better...
A home in Canada; near where the local beach was in the city, where 3 people live together who met 8 years ago as teenagers on the hit reality TV show Total Drama Island. The three were a guy and two women happily in a polyamorous relationship.
The three Lincoln, Dawn and Bridgette were gathered together in front of the TV having finished watching a movie on DVD. "Well? What do you think? Isn't that one of the greatest movies ever made?" Lincoln asked with a big smirk as Dawn giggled and Bridgette rolled her eyes with both of them looking amused.
"I think that's a huge stretch to call Caddyshack amongst the greatest pieces of movies ever... But I enjoyed it and found it fun..." Bridgette admitted with Dawn nodding.
"I especially loved the gopher being one step ahead of every plot to kick him out of his home where his ancestors probably lived for far longer than when the country club got built." Dawn then stated with a big smile as Lincoln then thought about it before grinning once again.
"How about call it the best golfing movie ever made?" Lincoln then asked as Bridgette sighed and shrugged as Dawn ptu her finger to below her lip.
"Beating out what competition?" Dawn asked as Lincoln pondered it and beamed.
"Happy Gilmore! I saw them both when I was a kid trying to find inspiration to help Lori with her golfing... Never thought golfing comedies would be so fun." Lincoln said beamed as he got up and looked at the DVDs. "How about we see the other comedy that the late Rodney Dangerfield starred in... Back to School the best 1986 comedy to have the main character sing Twist & Shout so Ferris Bueller can suck it!" Lincoln suggested as they shrugged.
"No way could Ferris get away with that if they did a remake now..." Bridgette then said as there was the doorbell ringing.
Lincoln went to answer the door and his eyes widened upon seeing the guy that he hadn't seen in person since he was a teenager. Someone who had been in plenty of trashy tabloid TV and guest stars to milk up whatever fame he could.
"Oh hi Geoff... Long time no see..." Lincoln muttered trying to look friendly as the man was surprised and waved.
"Oh hi... Lincoln... Sorry; I was told that Bridgette lives here and didn't realise that she had company..." Geoff muttered and Lincoln felt tense.
"Lincoln; who is that..." Bridgette asked coming over and stood shocked with Dawn following and gasped out loud. "Geoff..." Bridgette whispered taken aback to see her ex-boyfriend there and Geoff smiled at her.
"Bridgette... You definitely look better... Not saying that you weren't smoking before but... Cool that you have been killing it at the pro-surfer circuit... Can I come in..." Geoff asked as the polycule shared a look and then slowly nodded. "Didn't realise that you had company... Hi Dawn..." Geoff said walking in as Dawn gave him a slight friendly wave.
"Greetings." Dawn whispered tensely as they got to the couch. The three then sat down and Geoff faced Bridgette.
He sighed and said "Bridge... I have been thinking since we last saw eachother... I missed you and I regret how things fall apart between us... I was an idiot and... I had to try and track you down since you blocked my number and on social media..."
Bridgette cleared her breath and said "I suppose that we can talk this out and start anew. What do you two say?"
Dawn and Lincoln nodded and Bridgette then looked at Geoff expectedly but he grinned and said "does that mean that you can take me back?"
Bridgette grimaced along with Dawn and Lincoln; Bridgette expecting an apology for her boyfriend and girlfriend shook her head. "Geoff... Sorry but... I am... Not available..." Bridgette muttered as she then went and caught Lincoln and Dawn's hands. Geoff's eyes widened at this as he looked in disbelief.
"How did this happen... How have I not heard about this..." Geoff asked as they then straightened their eyebrows at him.
"Not all of us want our private lives plastered for all the world to see. We had to get a lawyer to get restraining orders on the worst of the paparazzi... Including Sierra." Lincoln answered looking defensive as Geoff got annoyed and a bit angry.
"What the hell... You told me that you weren't cheating on me with them and that he was like a bro to you... Yet you went into bed with them; after you broke up with me!" Geoff snapped and they then got angry.
"Excuse me... My feelings for Lincoln changed and I didn't do anything of the sort! They were just good friends that I stayed in contact with and it was two years later before things developed... I would never want them to feel like rebounds! It's been less than 8 years since we broke up Geoff... Did you really think that I would just stay single and wait for you to man up and apologise to you and be ready to take you back!" Bridgette snapped and Geoff looked awkward and Dawn came up to him.
"He really did expect that." Dawn stated flatly sounding dissapointed and Geoff glared at her.
"The freaky hippie magic thing..." Geoff muttered as Lincoln and Bridgette marched up to him ready to throw hands.
"You said that you wanted to apologise but I never heard one 'sorry' from you. Not from how you acted and especially towards Lincoln... You let Ronnie Anne convince you to be a big headed bully towards him!" Bridgette snapped and Geoff was looking defensive.
"...It was unfair for her to be hounded after what you aired on the TV Lincoln and what a womanising jerk you were when you were 11 and I see that still 1 girl is still not enough for you!" Geoff snapped as they were in disbelief.
"Unbelievable... You have not matured and not realised that you were wrong... She was a jerk since she entered the show and I admit that I wasn't perfect in our relationship and I felt bad for what she had to deal with from the fans but she was still a bad girlfriend and a big jerk... Plus don't talk about when I was a kid when you were fed from a biased source and didn't know the full context!" Lincoln snapped thinking that Ronnie Anne back then was a sore spot for him.
She definitely was more bitter about having lost the show and going home with the TD fandom hating her much more which earned some pity from Lincoln and Dawn despite everything; was made to reflect and seek counselling for her feelings from Maria who was dissapointed in how she had acted. Ronnie Anne ended up cooling down and were civil with eachother when they met up on family gatherings.
"Geoff... Have you spent all this time just wanting to 'apologise' to me and never thought about doing it to the guy who you held a grudge against despite everyone else telling you how rediculous you were acting..." Bridgette asked with her arms folded and Geoff looked nervous with the looks he was getting.
"I don't need to read your aura to know the answer." Dawn said as Geoff then began leaving in a huff.
"Whatever... Enjoy screwing with the white haired jerk and the hippie..." Geoff snapped and the door slammed with them letting their frustration out.
"Can't believe that... Sorry that you had to go through this..." Dawn said apologetically to Bridgette who sighed.
"I can't believe him... I guess with him embracing the tabloid celebrity lifestyle like what happened with him and Heather... I shouldn't be surprised..." Bridgette sighed as they heard that 3 years ago the two of them were in a brief marriage that was meant for celebrity scandal purposes and to drive up buzz about them. From the sounds of it; Geoff definitely suffered during the divorce proceedings.
Heather was able to get access to better lawyers and rumor had it; Geoff's own ones yelled at him when he asked what a pre-nup was.
"I wish I was in a better mood to watch the comedy zingers of Rodney at work..." Lincoln sighed as Dawn then got an idea.
"I know what can help... Say Bridgette; how about Lincoln help us settle our discussion." Dawn asked with a smile and that had Bridgette's eyes wideneed and returned it.
"Huh?" Lincoln asked as they started giggling.
"When you were out at your meeting about your comic; Dawn and I decided to have some alone time... We ended up after a make out started claiming the other was the better kisser. Perhaps you can be a judge to fix this." Bridgette then said as Lincoln's face as taken aback and then smirked.
"Okay; but I shall be a fair and impartial judge. Moving my hands to your posteriors won't earn you extra points." Lincoln then said as they rolled their eyes before giggling.
After the little 'competition'; they went back to the couch to watch Back to School. Bridgette snuggling up to her boyfriend and girlfriend; was thankful that the debacle at least led them to this.
