Interviews.
For those who remember these memes, I'm doing something similar. Again, asking for the same kinds of questions, but this time, instead of hiding their identities until someone guesses or I get enough questions, I'm giving their names in advance. Which won't help because a lot of you don't know who most of them are, and none of you know all of them

What are any likely parings between the characters on the list? What characters couldn't stand to be in the same room?
Tor and Mina are a pairing. Fish and Lucca would get along in a nerdy way and would enjoy dates to the shooting range, although Fish's spirituality and Lucca's rationality might clash and ruin it for the two. Grace naturally attracts all the guys but she'd be most interested in Mark: they have a lot in common, not to mention similar personalities, and would find each other fascinating. Vic would get along well with Elly but Bridget could probably charm the pants off him if she felt like it... she may be toying with him, though.
Grace and Bridget would be an instant conflict; Bridget would be threatened by the most beautiful person in the room and Grace would be annoyed by Bridget's manipulative tendencies and shallowness. The straight-laced Mark would annoy the hell out of Bridget and Elly, and probably Vic. Joni would feel very uncomfortable talking to Grace, who she'll see as everything she's not, but if Grace shows patience with her Joni may warm up to her. She'll remain feeling threatened by the overly social Mina and Elly; Elly'll mean well, Mina will return the dislike after she gets annoyed by how timid Joni is.
All of them are on the current version of Survivor (assume 1-5 are team one and 6-10 are team two). How does this likely to play out?
I probably should have scattered them out a bit more; a lot of the teammates know each other. Nonetheless!
Mina will take charge of Team 1 quickly, and no one's likely to complain so long as she takes the advice of the others. Mark will try to do the same with Team 2 on account of being the only adult on the team, but Joni's the only one who'll listen to him. The others will form a subfaction with no official leader but for all practical purposes led by Bridget.
Given their disorganization, Team 2 will probably lose all the challenges before the merge, and will punt off Mark and Joni in that order.
Post-merge, Elly will have figured out Bridget doesn't know what she's doing and will try to side with the other team. They appreciate the warning about B and will kick her as soon as possible, which Vic will initially be distressed about but will ultimately realize was for the best. Solo, Vic'll be a powerhouse at physical immunity challenges, which will mean he'll get kicked the instant he loses a mental challenge to Grace or Lucca. Fish, without any real allies, will go around the same time.
It'll be at this point that Tor and Mina will offer to ally with Elly against their former comrades. Elly's no fool -- she knows that when it's down to three, she won't win the final challenge and will be out the door -- so she turns around and offers to side with Grace and Lucca instead. Lucca catches on, convinces Grace, and the three knock off Mina and Tor instead.
Lucca drops off the endurance challenge first; she picked a poor posture when she positioned herself and finally slips. Unfortunately, Elly underestimated Grace, who not only seems perfectly comfortable after standing for hours but also doesn't seem to be getting tired. Since it's too late for Elly to come better prepared, she finally gets too exhausted and drops off.
Grace then... picks Elly for her final opponent, admiring her effort. This doesn't benefit Elly in the slightest, as everyone prefers Grace in the final vote.
