DAY 0 - Morning

[islandiastaff]

[Good morning, contestants!

One moment, you were receiving a mysterious envelope marked "Greetings from Islandia". The next moment, you're waking up on a beach.

Twenty-four people are scattered across the sands of a beautiful tropical beach, all somewhere in the middle of waking up. To your right, a sunrise over a gentle sea. To your left, dense, vibrant jungle.

There are two signs of civilization here! One is a shipwreck, about half of a good-sized ship emerging morosely from the waves. The other is a wooden sign at the edge of the jungle, showing simply an arrow pointing deeper into the island. Looking a bit closer, there is a narrow but well-maintained path into the jungle.

Welcome to Islandia!]

[ Aha!!! There's an adventurous bone in your body after all, Meryl Stryfe!! ]

[ The picture of innocence, ] Behind what, the ocean?

I'm flattered by your estimation of my abilities, but this is getting a little silly.

[Of course there is. She's still stealing looks at the water ss she marches up to him and barely resists grabbing his collar]

You know very well what I mean, Mr. Vash. [Don't play stupid!]

If we've been kidnapped because of some trouble you've landed in...!

[ Backpedaling on auto-pilot, which puts him further into the water, which causes him to sway dangerously at least once as the wet sand shifts beneath his boots. It might be wise to beware of tipping giants. ]

Whoa, hey, this isn't fair! Why blame me?! I didn't do anything, I swear!

[ Aside from open a sketchy letter but

Pot

Kettle ]

[As he sways, a small hand shoots up to grab the front of his duster. Apparently she can't tesist any longer]

[With any luck (not that he has much) he'll stay upright]

A likely story! What have you done this time? Where is this? Why are we here?!

[So what if she opened the same sketch letter, this is obviously different!!]

[featherduster]

[ Wow he didn't actually think she'd go for it. Peering down his nose at this onslaught of unfair judgements ]

... Come to think of it, you're a lot more accusatory than I remember...

[ UTTERLY FAILS TO ANSWER ANY OF THE QUESTIONS yep ]

[collateraltsunage]

[Deep, deep breaths....]

Answer me, Mr. Vash. Now.

[She's got a dangerous edge to her voice. If he has any self-preservation buried... anywhere, he should probably listen.]
