Sorry, they're often called the "twins", "wonder twins", or even "squints" for short, to poke fun of them. I know they are not related, but early on when everyone was bitching about them being interchangeable and questioning if they were a couple, or even related, they were given nicknames on the internet. That one stuck with me. Personally, I like Scoobies.

I wonder if i'm the only one that has no idea what "squints" or "scoobies" mean.

That is a huge spoiler that should probably be covered from naive eyes. It's almost certainly where the story is headed.
I didn't think it was so huge for people who have no idea what I'm talking about, but I covered it up anyway, in case anyone else thinks so.

Nope.
Not.


I never heard them asked twins either but I don't read show specific message boards.

Seemed obvious to me that Ward did not shoot the dog.
Only other person around that we know of was Garrett so........

That being said, I think that the GH alien is not an alien, rather another Inhuman. Its DNA can heal other Inhumans without adverse effects (Skye), but cannot safely heal humans.
I like that Inhumans theory. I was thinking it was
Spoiler:
a Kree body, partly from the looks and partly because I believe Sif said the Kree had been to Earth.

Sorry, never heard of this before. I wouldn't go with Scoobies, either, as even though this is a Joss Whedon produced show, that moniker was already used for Buffy, and was much more fitting there.

It just occurred to me... It might be a combination of both. After all, in the comics,
Spoiler:
the Inhumans are descendants of the Kree.

I think it's been confirmed outside of the show it was a

Kree
body.

So, Whedon-fans followed David Boreanaz to Bones, where the science team are called "squints", and "scoobies" is the nickname for the non-combat based (not the slayers) good guys on Buffy. Although, that varied a bit as Buffy herself was sometimes called a "scoobie".
