If you're a website regular, you'll be used to seeing the housemates heads revolving on a carousel at the top of the page. But the housemates have rarely had a chance to peruse the images that, to you, are so familiar.

Occasionally when a Task comes in, the housemates have caught a glimpse, and today Marcus got time to study his profile pic. And he wasn't happy about it.

"I'm ****** off again about that ******* picture. I can't believe how much it affects me," he said, stunned.

"It's not that bad," said Siavash.

"It's like there's a ball of sadness. I can't explain what it's like," said Marcus, visibly shaken.

"It's not that bad," smirked Siavash, desperately trying not to laugh.

"I looked at it quickly for two seconds and it's made me go like this," continued Marcus. "I honestly feel like crying, I really do. After all the things in this House, I've never thought about crying. But looking at that picture makes me wanna cry."

Trying to avert disaster, Siavash changed the subject. "I think the Task will be brilliant..." began Siavash, as Marcus kept staring at the picture, before interrupting him.

"I think I'm actually starting to cry a bit. It makes me so sad," he said. "I can't believe it everyone else's pictuire looks so nice."

"Mine's horrible, I'm not even smiling.," added Siavash.

"You don't look like a freak of nature like I do," concluded Marcus.

Maybe it's the way the eyes follow you around the room...
