Shaun seems to be being singled out by Davie. Although Davie may think it is just banter, Shaun may not see it this way, look at his replies.

Gavin looks to have joined in after Davie started on Shaun, if you see something that you do not think is just friendly banter happening in your friend circle, it is best not joining in, it could be bullying.

Watch out for your friends and if you think they may getting a tough time from anyone, then chat to them and see if they want to open up about it to you.
