"This is weird…" Pocky mumbled.
Island Role-play
"Oh, our cruise ship crashed," I say, waving in the vague direction of our ship. A lot of it is underwater, but part of it is still above water. I hadn't rationed it yet, but I was going to soon. I'd been too busy taking care of the comatose survivors.
Felix turned to see the ship, "That's weird." he sat down on the sand and felt his stomach rumble, "Do you have any food?"
Pocky turned in a full circle, facing everybody. "Who are all of you?" she asked.
"I'm Felix!" he held out a hand and smiled, the freckles on his cheeks standing out a bit more sharply from this angle. "Who are you?"
Pocky shook his hand, returning his smile. "Emori. Emori Puckett. But you can just call me Pocky." She answered.
"I'm Jaise Capulit!" I say, smiling. One of the survivors backed away slowly, a girl with blonde hair.
"Are you a demon? Why do you have red eyes?" she questions.
"Born with them," I respond happily. She gives me a sideways glance and I wave.
"Hello Pocky." Felix grinned and squinted into the distance, "We should figure out a way off of this place." he placed a hand over Pocky's shoulder and threw an arm around Jaise, "We'll find a way off together!"
I pull up the worried girl but suddenly sense movement from one of the bodies. I leave her and skip over to the girl waking up.
"Hi!" I say, crouching beside the girl that just woke up. "Welcome to the island!"
//me or vallery
"There is no easy way off this island. You'd have to roughly swim at least 289 miles in each direction to reach land and the ship is sunk," I say. "We'll have to put up a signal and hope some pilot will fly over and see us" I state. Felix looks at me.
"Are you sure?" he asks, confused.
"Yup, I've been doing the calculations in the past few days that y'all have been asleep." I finish cheerily.

Originally, I planned it to be you.
Felix nodded and smiled at Pocky and the other girl (Vallery), "I'm sure Jaise has got it all figured out."
"Yup. We really should start a signal. And a fire before night hits. I need to go ration the ship. Does anyone want to come with?" I ask, looking around at the group.
"I'll come!" Felix threw his hand into the air and then noticed the bead of sweat dripping down his forehead.
"Yay! OKay, so while we're doing that, we need ideas for food, shelter, and water. If we can start a fire, we can boil the salt out of the water so we had drinking water," I suggest. The others start talking among themselves with ideas and Felix and I head off towards the ship.
Felix took off his leather jacket and swung it over his shoulder, instantly feeling better in the heat, "So, what are we looking for?"
"Anything that will help us. Stored food, chairs, blankets, rations, literally anything that's going to be helpful. It may take more than one trip. WE can get all of the mattresses that survived later," I say, as we approach the ship. I climb through the hole in the side. It is darker inside, and the shade feels good. I immediately spot food, and decide that this must be the kitchen part of the ship. It takes three trips, but we manage to get all the food in a pile outside to take back to the group.

"That was exhausting." Felix panted, but then smiled, "But it was still fun."
"Yeah," I say and smile at him, and we drag all of our findings back to the group. They are still deciding what to do about the whole shelter situation.
Felix stretched and shot a smile at Jaise, "We'll be out of here in no time!"
Ada had passed out again but just woke up. "What's going on?"
Vallery looked at all of them like they were crazy. "Our cruise ship just crashed, we're all stranded on an island and have been for god knows how long, and everyone else on the ship is probably dead! Why do you all seem so calm?!"
“I’m not calm. I just woke up.”
"Guys! Guys!" I shout, clapping my hands. Everyone looked over. "Here is what we have rescued from the ship," I say, pointing at the pile. We had been able to salvage boxed dinners, a couple gallons of waters, batteries, a few flashlights, three water soaked blankets, a lighter, four buckets, about 100 feet of string, and two dozen Sharpies.
"We are getting the mattresses later, but there were only a few of them that survived from what Felix and I could make out," I told them. They looked sort of let down, and I realized we didn't have a lot.
"It's okay, guys. We'll make it out of this," I said, trying to cheer them up. The worst thing you need is a bunch of dejected teenagers/adults trying to survive on an island. Then nothing gets done. Why was this so hard?
(Have to go, brb)
Vallery looked at the supplies. "Did you find any bodies?" She asked. "If the ship crashed, there would be bodies, and you wouldn't be so happy. None of this makes sense. Can't any of you see that?"
Robin came to slowly, slumped against a tree. He could hear people talking from some distance, but he couldn't distinguish what they were saying. The side of his head felt wet, so he touched it. When he drew his hand away, his palm was red. "H-hello? Is anyone there?" He looked around frantically, trying to figure out where he was.
Ada walked to a boy who had just woken up. “Hey, calm down,” she said. “Are you bleeding? I’m Ada. What’s your name?”
"Um, I'm Robin. Where are we? I-I think my head is bleeding…" He looked down at his bloody hand, heart pounding.
