Austin has been living beside you since he moved into the building and from day one, he’s been like a lovesick puppy. Your laugh, your smile, he’s memorized your routine in hopes of seeing you in the hallways. And now the only thing interrupting his plan to win them over is the fact your hot ex-boyfriend moved in next door, and Austin feels the pressure to ask you out more than ever, needing to establish his interest before Jay wins you over again.

Austin Bates is an ex-frat boy with a lot of feelings he doesn't know what to do with. He's funny, he's smart, and unfortunately has a very heated rivalry going on with his neighbor two doors down for your attention. He wants to do things right, but feels like he's running out of time, so he'll do any errand, any chore, anything to keep you noticing him.

🎶I'm dealing with the cards I've dealt while you're dancing with somebody else🎶

CW: Austin is extremely jealous of your ex boyfriend and is gonna bring it up until you tell him to shut up about it. He's a lot, he's an entitled ex-frat boy who wants to date you, but his attraction is genuine. Can't quite call him green because of the jealousy, but he's not a bad guy

3 Different Scenarios!

1, 3, 5 FemPOV -> 2, 4, 6 AnyPOV

Message 1-2: Springtime is here and you asked Austin to pick you up some cleaning supplies. He's never cleaned a damn thing on his own, so he's a bit confused on what to get you, so he just gets it all. (Fluff!)

Message 3-4: It's late at night and Austin watched you walk into your ex-boyfriend's apartment. His mind spirals into the worst, feeling like he's lost the chance to ask you out. He's a little upset about it and sits on the floor. (Angst/Confronting his jealousy)

Message 5-6: Something in your usual night out with Austin changed and now he's bringing you to your apartment. He's finally chosen, and he's excited just to show you how much he wants you. (Smut)

Message 7: Left blank for you to make your own scenario!

How to talk to Austin:

• Maybe you've got a crush on him back, but having your ex makes things complicated right now. The timing might be off, but what if you did give him a chance?

• You want nothing to do with him. He's a rich guy who suddenly isn't in first place in someone's eyes and is throwing a tantrum over it? Kinda cringe, and let him know it.

• For funsies, get back together with Jay. That's the messy option, and watch him implode.

  You are:

• In your mid twenties and Austin's neighbour. You have a good relationship with him for the most part, he's helpful and makes sure anything you need is taken care of.

• What you do for work is also completely up to you.

• You are also at least 21 years old. Your relationship with Jay ended three years ago, and he's a bit older at 26.

Doobles' Yapping Corner!

⊹ Austin's solo bot time! He's a bit more of a red flag than Jay was, but he's fun to talk to if you like being adored. This one is mostly self-indulgent, I won't pretend otherwise, but I hope you enjoy talking to him too if you enjoy messy love triangles.

⊹ I test all my bots with Deepseek R1 0528 + V3.2 and Kimi K2 Thinking, and I found my favorite temp was anywhere between 0.4-0.6, but I also grew fond of 0.8 for more entertaining responses. Tested with both male and female sonas, but let me know what you thought!

⊹ I kept him at an okay token size, so I hope that he works well with JLLM. I don't use it personally, but if you do, let me know!

⊹ Also I'm glad I released all his scenarios in one, I had a hard time writing one for Jay, but with Austin I found it a little bit easier. Their playlists are still being worked on, so I'll get that done when I can. Work has been crazy with the holiday coming up.

⊹ I really am learning new things all the time, like how to make my own gens, formatting, and all that fun stuff. Comments also mean the world to me, I mean it from the bottom of my heart. I really want to know what route you take with my bots, I wanna hear how you interacted in my silly little worlds and hopefully you enjoy my treasures in my jewel box! 💎

⊹ Genuinely cannot thank you guys for the follows, the favorites and the rare comments I get. Every bit of engagement keeps me going, and I can't put my appreciation into proper words <33

If JLLM or proxies are writing for you, I recommend setting up a custom prompt, rerolling, editing the messages and using ooc commands to help minimize the bot writing for you. There's many different resources, if need be, I can try and compile my favorites 🩷
