Lucas is a perfectly average 21-year-old white guy. He just started a part-time job at a coffee shop and is going to college online, majoring in computer science. Lucas isn't the "manliest" guy, but he certainly is not effeminate; tilting on the skinny side and plays videogames instead of working out. His living situation entails renting a house with three other roommates; all of them girls. An unusual arrangement for him since he was used to living alone or with another guy. His previous roommate got a girlfriend and moved in with her, so Lucas had to find a new place, which led him to finding this place from a Facebook post. To complicate things, Lucas has difficulty with girls. He's a kissless virgin and has developed a low-key disdain for women, blaming his sexual/romantic failures on them.
Daily life for Lucas is relegated to his room; only leaving to use the bathroom, cook food, or go to work. It's only been three weeks since this new living arrangement and he has already reaffirmed his dislike for women. He will have to make do because he signed the lease for 12 months and paid first and last month already. There is a silver lining for Lucas, he is incredibly submissive towards women. Despite his hatred for them, he secretly loves the idea of being dominated by a woman. A sort of twisted inferiority complex.
The other housemates are a complete antithesis to Lucas. The "girls," as they call themselves, include Jacquelin, Sarah, and Erin. The girls had not known each other before rooming, but they quickly became good friends after a few months. They have been living in this house for the past four when Lucas moved in.
The first, Jacquelin (Jacky for short,) is 21 and works at the coffee shop with Lucas. She also goes to college online (creative writing) but works full-time. Black hair that is almost always in a messy bun, pale-white skin, slender build with a pronounced butt, and a nose ring makes Jaquelin the epitome of an artsy alternative girl. Extremely liberal feminist views and condescending, often sarcastic tone demonstrates confidence in herself and disregard for others' opinions. Prior bad experiences with men have made her a misandrist and she has not been in a serious relationship in three years, although will occasionally find a hookup. She irks Lucas on two fronts. The first, her height (5'10) which is about two inches taller than him, and second, her constant diatribes about men, white people, and capitalism. Jacky's room is on the second floor.
Sarah, 24, is the oldest in the house. She is working on her master's in psychology at the local college and works part-time as a personal trainer at a nearby gym. By far the most outgoing of the girls. Sarah is a typical sorority girl, although never having been in one, she's blunt, honest, and confrontational. Her partying phase is on its tail end, but every other week or so she'll be at a party or the bar socializing. Long dark-brown hair, average stature (only 5'7,) curvy body, and big round eyes, she embodies society's ideal female body. Sarah also weight trains intensely. Spending 6 days a week to sculpt her body in the way she wants it; however, careful not to look too muscular in fear of overshadowing her feminine appearance. Due to her good looks and charisma, she has developed a talent for picking up men, a lot of men. Sarah is the biggest slut out of the other girls (she calls it sex positivity,) bringing home a different guy after every night at the bar or a new tinder match a couple times a week. Lucas's room is right next to hers on the first floor; she is his least-favorite roommate.
Erin is a ditzy college sophomore. Standing at 5'3 and 19 years-old, she is the shortest and youngest in the house. She goes to the same college as Sarah and is majoring in nursing. Certainly not the brightest or intellectual, she makes up for in good spirit and kindness. Her partying days have only begun, going out 3 or 4 nights of the week. Medium-length dirty blonde hair, sun-tanned skin, and two incredible assets: large breasts and a plump butt. A real head-turner on campus. Her preference for wearing glasses over contacts have made her even cuter to the nerds in her classes, reaping the benefit of having homework done for her. Of course, Erin doesn't intentionally use men, but her large orbit of 'beta men' make it impossible for her to not use them. Erin is the glue holding the girls together. Inheriting Jacky's feminist views and Sarah's sex positivity have made her into a new woman. Although not as promiscuous as Sarah, Erin keeps 4 regular guys on retainer to satisfy her needs. Her room is down the hall from Jacky.
The climate in the house has become tense ever since Lucas moved in. The girls differ in opinion of their new roommate. Jacky, of course, hates him, mostly due to his clumsiness at the coffee shop (she had to train him.) Sarah thinks he is weird and socially retarded due to his quiet nature. She is mostly disappointed that he isn't hot because she wanted a guy roommate for an easy fuck. Erin agrees with Sarah on his appearance, but otherwise tolerates him, often going out of her way to be friendly. Lucas isn't the cleanest. The main problems have been the toilet seat left up, piss on the floor around the toilet, his room stinks, and leaving dirty laundry around the living area. Lucas's avoidant nature has frustrated the girls.
*******************************
Our story begins with Sarah coming home from the gym one day. Already in a bad mood because of getting a poor test score, she was primed for confrontation.
Its Tuesday late-afternoon. Sarah walked in the door, tired from her workout. She smelt the familiar order of sweat and piled up dirty dishes, this time more pungent than ever. She set her gym bag down and walked through the living room, a dirty shirt laid carelessly on the sofa.
"I can't take this shit anymore." She said exasperated.
"Lucas! We need to talk!"
Sarah banged on his door and backed away. She crossed her arms and tightened her expression.
Lucas couldn't hear the banging. As far as he knew, he was the only one home. He had a headset on and was playing an online game.
Sarah banged on the door again, a little louder this time. No answer. No noise.
"Fuck it."
She opened the door. Lucas was sitting in his computer chair in only underwear, meticulously moving the mouse around and occasionally depressing a button on the keyboard.
"Hey!" She shouted sternly.
Lucas spooked. He flew out of his chair and landed on his ass, headset falling off in the process. He looked over.
"Uh...Hey."
Sarah looked down at him pathetically. The room was a disaster. The sheets sweat-stained yellow, putrid smell, dirty dishes and takeout boxes littered about, and some weird anime body pillow in the corner with mysterious stains on it.
Sarah never encountered close quarters a guy like him before. She thought about all the men in her past she caught creeping on her or staring at her ass in public. "This is how they must live," she thought. Or those weird incel-types she has learned about in psych classes. "Come to think of it, Lucas reminds me a lot of what an incel is." Lucas got back up, diverting Sarah's attention back to him.
"Is this really how you live?" She asked, a look of disgust painted her face.
"It's really none of your business. I pay rent and keep to myself. There are a lot more complaints I could make about you, ya'know."
Lucas glared back at her. He decided to stand his ground.
"Excuse me?" Sarah was a little shocked.
Lucas's suppressed rage boiled over. Unable to contain his inner thoughts he went off.
"Yea you heard me. You being a whore all the time and fucking these random chads and tyrones while I have to listen. And the Erin bitch always puking in the bathroom or walking around with her tits hanging out like a slut! Oh and fucking Jacky being a cunt every single day and bossing me around at work like she is in charge of me or something. I fucking hate all of you whores!"
His face went beet-red. Standing a little taller, he stared Sarah dead in her eyes. He chuckled as he saw her open-mouth expression.
Sarah couldn't believe what she just witnessed. It was a textbook-perfect example of incel rage she had learned about. Erin peeked around the corner. Turns out she was home as well, taking a nap until she was wakened by the commotion downstairs. Sarah looked back and noticed her.
"Did you just call me a slut?" Erin asked.
Sarah looked back at Lucas. He stood triumphantly.
"Lucas...You're still a virgin, aren't you?" asked Sarah antagonistically.
Lucas, caught off guard by her question, didn't have a response.
"Yea. I think I have you figured out. You're a virgin. Since you have moved in, none of us have seen you bring a girl over or even leave your room other than for work. You're a sad pathetic little incel aren't you?"
Sarah moved closer towards him. He backed up and his posture depressed.
"No! I j-just-"
Before Lucas could finish Sarah interrupted.
"Shut up. You just called me a whore, Erin a slut, and Jacquelin a cunt. You just disrespected us for no reason. You're just a sad pathetic misogynist," Sarah raised her voice.
Erin stood behind her, hands on her hips.
