DAY 0 - Morning



[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!]

Well isn't this peachy?

[waking up on a damn beach can only have one result. Leorio's standing up and attempting to get all the sand out of his suit. Shaking out the jacket, he tries to remember how he got here, but the card is the only thing.]

Must've been a crazy night...

[LOUD GASP]

Mister Wright! It's...

[...Oooh.]

You're not mister Wright!
punchestumors: (????)

Whahuh?

[Wow. He takes off his jacket for one minute and they're gasping - oh wait is that a dude. God it figures. He keeps shaking out the jacket, though now he is doing so while looking confused.]

Jeez, what're you going on about? Don't just go up to a guy and say he's Mr. Right!
fullonbraced: (I'M READY! WOOOO!!!)

[personal profile] fullonbraced 2015-01-04 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry about that man! It's just you looked like a guy I know about!

[....]

You look really like a guy I know!
punchestumors: (what?)

[Damn, he's really intense about that guy.]

All right, I get it! But my name is Leorio, not... that.

[A sigh. This is a really surreal day, but maybe it'll turn around.]

... That guy, he supposed to be around here or something? I don't know squat, I just woke up on the sand. As you can probably see.

[shake shake shake]

What's your name?

No, but I saw him just a little while ago! And then I woke up here, man!

[Robin dug around in the pockets of the Themis Academy uniform she wore, producing a couple handfuls of sand.]

I'm Robin! Uh, nice to meet you! I guess.
punchestumors: (are you for real with this shit)

[personal profile] punchestumors 2015-01-04 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Robin... all right!

But, you too, huh? By any chance, did you get a letter?
fullonbraced: (I'M READY! WOOOO!!!)

[personal profile] fullonbraced 2015-01-05 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
Hey! Yeah! I did! I don't know why someone would give me a letter like that!
punchestumors: (what?)

[personal profile] punchestumors 2015-01-07 07:44 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know who or why either, but I got one too - whatever that was, it had to have something to do with us getting here. But I don't remember anything else...

Whoa... We must be kidnapped, man! What was in your envelope?!
