Eleanora amernoir

She had gone to bed in silk sheets and a large tapestry hung over her bed. It had been one her Father had made. Oh, her Father of all people. She still liked it though, it had been painted in gorgeous oil colors of reds, golds and blue. It was the blue paint she liked especially in it. She remembered her maid, Claire, telling her that the paints had been made with rocks that were found near the sea, crushed for hours, to make only a teaspoon worth. 

When I pictured a beach, I certainly didn't imagine this.

It was dirty, the water especially. Who would ever purposefully enter water that had bits of debris floating? Frankly, seeing those images of children playing in water made her question whether what she was looking at was even a beach at all. But that quickly dissipated as a concern as she stood up, brushing the sand from her dress.

She gasped at the sight of him. A man, likely rich at least from his attire, on this pitiful excuse for a beach alongside her. Where was she, and who was he? Various questions floated in her mind as she tried to ignore the horrific smell of the ocean. At that moment, she decided she disliked the ocean a great deal. 

"Goodness..." Eleanora said partially to herself, although she did expect the man- no, boy- to hear. With a small exhale, she glanced at the child, giving a small smile once more, "Are you, alright dear? Are you lost? Perhaps we shall find your parents?"

Mr. TV PicklePantry

"Augh, this was a mistake. I shouldn't have come here," Mr. TV griped while shaking sand off his pant leg. He came up with a brilliant idea to strand a lucky someone on an island while he recorded it. Documentaries were big! Documentaries with danger? Now that was revolutionary. So obviously, this was a great idea! But the moment the helicopter flew away Mr. TV realized an unfortunate thing: his head's a tv. And he's surrounded by nature. Sand wouldn't just get all over his clothes, it would get inside his head and in all those wires! So would water and even BUGS! The clock was definitely ticking, but on HIM!
"C'mon, c'mon, Dollface, let's get a move on!" he ushered frantically, a handheld camcorder in one hand. "Let's find a way off this island before I rust!" Now that he thought about it, Eleanora was cute as a button and sweet as pie, she sure was, but maybe she wasn't cut out for being stranded on an island. She didn't look like she knew what to do, not like he was better. Well great. If they made it out - and only if! - a documentary of a cute cat maid alone on an island would make MILLIONS. But that was one big if.

M. Pourife (Human) kafkaesque

Two lawful neutrals on an island... One is a mercenary, one is a scientist. What could go wrong?

That was what M. Pourife thought as he attempted to start a fire, albeit in vain. He reckoned that it was for warmth, even when the stranger cowered at the first - and only - spark that came out of the middle-aged man's attempts. This fear... It reminded him of an intern of his, although his name escaped the scientist's conscience at the moment. Even the other party's coolness towards him didn't seem to be all too intimidating or unfamiliar, because that intern also had a similar demeanor. Well, at least until the topic of science was brought up.

"Oxidation is what is required to both cook food and drive away wild animals," he once stated in a futile shot at a conversation. Sure, he meant it to nobody in particular, but the fact that his words were echoed to himself ended up hurting. Just slightly. But not as much as his hands, which were a bit sore from all that rubbing... A match would have been so much easier... He furrowed his brows and stood himself up, abruptly kicking at the wood he had earlier tried to ignite.

Mumbling to himself, M. Pourife then looked up at the trees... The canopy... It was admittedly all quite beautiful, and if it weren't for the fact that he didn't have an easy escape route, he'd be able to just marvel at the foliage for hours. A hand went through one of his pockets, almost as if he wanted to take out a notepad and start writing notes, but then he realized... That pocket was completely empty - with the exception of a piece of lint that he quickly plucked and threw away as hard as he could. Why? Because why not. (He really wished he could've come up with a more scientific hypothesis in this moment.)

Oh great, guess forest-watching is out of the equation. Huh.

With some hesitance, the older man looked at the kenokai's sword before asking, "Do... Do you use that thing for hunting?" You know, despite the blade being far too long to slice or impale any potential food source. "Because I do think some meat would be adequate right now." What does he think he wants? A cookout? (That was going to get awkward fast.) He folded his hands together, scanning the other party's expression as he anticipated a reaction. Or none at all. Who knew. "Though... At the same time... I have no idea if anything on this island is really worth much in terms of meat..."


oh Heck Yea it's a semi-quick follow-up:

Oh great, another island adventure!

The scientist apparently had terrible luck with travel, as griped over by one of his interns in the past. Apparently - whenever he tried to go somewhere exotic - he ended up stuck somewhere... The older man had laughed it off as just another case of Fitzgerald being a melodramatic little shit as always, which - as usual - provoked him yelling at M. Pourife and trying to ruffle his hair. At the time, he thought it was in good fun, but in hindsight... It almost seemed like the youth was venting his frustrations on him. But why? All he did was help Fitzgerald.

Karma sure bit him in the ass with this encounter, huh?

M. Pourife toiled on the sands while the woman collected berries from some nearby bushes. It wasn't like he was doing absolutely nothing, as he was looking down at the sand and squinting to see if any sea creatures came and went with the waves; however, it became abundantly clear that he most likely wasn't actually going to contribute to the survival effort. Given the other party's ability to just get up and leave him on a whim, this... Probably wasn't the best idea. Maybe he still expected one of his interns to help him, and he regarded her as just another one of his workers. Rude, but it'd at least provide an explanation to his laziness.

He looked up when she offered him berries on leaves before dipping his head and stating, "Oh, thank you." However, instead of eating them, he just... Left them there. Maybe he planned to study them; maybe he was a bit skeptical of how edible they were. Who knew? His attention was now fixated back onto the ocean, although it was superseded every so often by his attempts to make sure the berries weren't swept away. They - after all - could be the only food he could gather on this island.

Her lack of a response unnerved him, but he supposed she was just the quiet type and shrugged. And that was how it was for the majority of their stay. Huh. M. Pourife was sure to keep that in mind, even after returning back to the mainland. No promises that he wouldn't be a bit of a dismissive asshole whenever Fitzgerald complained about travel-related inconveniences, though.

Murdina balladeerbattles

"Oh dear."

"Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear," was all that she could spit out.

Upon first waking up, Murdina could tell something was wrong. She quickly assessed her surroundings, gritting sand between her teeth as she moved frizzy hair out of her face. Upon feeling the warm grains of sand sinking between her fingers and the crash of the waves on her ears, her heart stopped. She was by the ocean. After nearly a decade of being away from it, she was not quite ready for a surprise reintroduction. "Is anyone there?" the merperson called out, trying to distract herself from her quickly growing anxiety. After seeing a head pop up in the distance, she began to limp her way over to them. She was not used to the instability of the beach turf, falling into a face full of sand a number of times. "Just keep moving to them," she continued to think to herself, the mental mantra repeating over and over.

She continued to call out questions, all of which went unanswered. These questions, such as "Are you okay?" and "Is anyone else here?" were responded with stony silence, much to the selkie's chagrin. Upon reaching the beach mate, she was a little put-off. She was greeted by the figure, who had a handful of wild-berries and a stick embedded into the sand. Next to the half-buried stick was "Luxidlv" scrawled into the damp soil. "Luxidlv?" Murdina inquired incredulously, never hearing a name quite like that before. With that, the presumable holder of the name shot out their hand expectantly. After a small courteous handshake, the mer looked around again, clutching her cape tightly as the pit in her stomach grew. She knew she could just hop into her seal skin and be on her way, but she couldn't just leave someone here by themselves. She sighed and grabbed a nearby branch, beginning to chip away at it with a small dagger she kept strapped to her side. 

"Alright then, not a huge talker. I can get that. However, you still have that mouth to eat at least, so let's learn a little bit of spearfishing, hmm?" She gave a small, half convincing smile, trying not to show her own worry to her new-found survivalist.

Reserved for follow-up, haha

Roy Lane PicklePantry

Roy slowly opened his eyes, wincing at the harsh sunlight he was met with. Holding a hand up to shade his face, he sat up. His other hand went to the ground to feel a soft cushion of sand. He looked down, then to the side. A beach? He looked the opposite end. Trees. Wildlife. No sight of a city. An island? He pulled up one knee and sighed. This was his fault, wasn't it? He remembered trying to use his new powers to move around quicker, but he must have overshot it. Well, not must of, he did.
Hearing a voice nearby, Roy looked over to see a woman walking around while clutching her cape. A pang of guilt hit him. Did she accidentally get dragged away with him? He got up and quickly hurried to her. "Hey, are you okay?" After a brief exchange, he nodded at her. "Murdina. Okay, nice to meet you. I'm sorry you got caught up in this." He looked around, purple eyes slowly moving to the shadows the trees cast. Maybe... "I'm going to try to get us out of here. It might send us somewhere else, but I feel like anything's better than a stranded island."
He closed his eyes to try and see through the shadows. Where was a good landing spot... Huh? A... hatchery? That seemed to be where the shadows wanted him to go. 

 🥀Elyn🥀 SteenTea

She sat, wide eyed as she glanced at the man near her. "Old" she thought aloud, her voice soft and hollow. "It can't be helped" was all she said before helping herself up, lending a hand to the seemingly elderly man. Her eyes squinted as she scanned through the small holes of her mask, she couldn't waste time worrying, risk having her judgement clouded. She took action immediately as she searched the island for any food, or clean water sources. Possibly a safe shelter that wouldn't need to be built, considering she wasn't very strong herself and the old man couldn't be of much use.

She sighed, turning to face the man. "Do you know any survival tactics?" She asked.

 Misery Rorichi

'WeLl wElL" Vashni glanced up at the masked girl, a wide grin plastered on their face. "NOw, wHat a lOvEly giRl yoU aRe~ ANd a vEry dElicIoUs oNe, tOo, I bEt!" The golem giggled, their eyes fixated on Elyn. "BUt now iSn't tHe tIMe to dWell On suCh tHinGs, dOn't You tHiNk sO, giRl?

Vashni's voice was getting gloomier and gloomier with each word pronounced. It wasn't like them at all to get all that serious and rational. Were it not for Amabelle, the girl they were in charge of, they would definitely not waste a chance to enjoy their time on the island. The golem sighed. "WEll, cHOp chOp, GiRl! We cAn't allOw oUrsElvEs to wAsTe aNy mOre tiMe!" Vashni turned away from Elyn heading towards the deeper part of the island. Ugh kids these days.. They thought while glancing back to check if the girl was following them. Getting creepier and creepier  every century..

Walker (Human) kafkaesque

Walker thought she could smell death when she looked over at the man, partially because it made her feel so dizzy and partially because... Well... Something about him didn't seem trustworthy. Warily, she clutched her hands close to her chest as she looked down at the sand, that damn obnoxious sand. It got into her shoes, her feet, her clothes... Its method of infiltration was quite insidious, just like how she kept thinking about death when she least wanted it.

The aristocrat looked back at the other party. Did her eyes evoke pity? Or disdain? Either way, it most likely wasn't flattering for either party. But you know what did suit both of them? How awkward the entire situation was. For the past few minutes or so, they had both been complaining - though not necessarily to each other - about how degrading the sand and the sea breeze were for their clothes and their overall appearance. Their irritation, unfortunately, soon faded, and the only parties left now were two people and maybe a passing bird.

"I do not think you expected to get stuck on an island this time, hm?" Walker quipped to the undead entity quietly, her tone slightly accented with contempt. It would've been funny if it weren't for her sheer hypocrisy, but... Alas. Her expression remained stone cold as she glanced down to the sand and kicked it, making sure a handful of it was tossed up in the air with her shoe. Later, she'd gripe over how so much granules were in her shoes, and this poor fellow would be her only witness. As for now, she continued with a shrug, "Then again, neither did I. That... That is just how it is, huh? You always get stuck in the most bizarre of situations when you least expect it... It is like life wants to spit at your face, with no remorse whatsoever."

She couldn't help but shudder as she thought, Though it is not like I can just disclose everything I know to a stranger... The gentle lapping of waves against the shore could be heard as the woman started to trace her foot in the sand. Sunlight stung at her eyes occasionally, but it wasn't really an issue anymore considering that it was going to set soon. Speaking of setting, there was also the lingering, nagging feeling that... Well... How could she articulate it? Mortality? Walker sighed as her lips curled into a pout. I am sure that this fellow knows what death is like, but... She tiled her head. How could discussion be possible? Our experiences are likely different, and there is the chance that one is too stubborn to yield...

"Do... Do you have anyone that you wait for, back on the mainland?" she asked. The complete change in subject didn't faze her at the moment, but it certainly would later on. Time was of the essence, the middle-aged woman reckoned, but at the same time, it didn't really matter right now. Just as long as I get out of here sooner rather than later... She cleared her throat before quietly stating, "You know... I have a husband and son... Back there... Well, my son does not live with me right now... But my husband?" Walker trembled as that last word wavered. "He... He is probably searching... I sure hope so, at the very least..."


yeehaw it's semi-late follow-up time.

"Well, this is a bit humiliating," Walker groused with a frown while walking through the foliage. Through yet another cruel stroke of luck, she had ended up on an island... Again. She gulped and clutched her sleeves close to herself as she thought, I was lucky this time, but... What if that is not the case this time? Her skin blanched slightly, making her stand out from her surroundings more than she already did. How befitting, especially in this time...

She held her hand up to her forehead as she scanned the trees and bushes for anything to forage. Clearly, nothing was learned from last time as she struggled to differentiate one plant from another, but that probably didn't matter; Walker, after all, was no botanist and had no interest in such a field. And... Even if her experience with her mother's garden had given her any insight into how plants worked, she recognized nothing. No roses. No kudzu. No oleander. Everything seemed foreign to her, and it made her shudder.

Her uneasiness was only compounded when she heard a call from what appeared to be a nearby bush. However, as soon as the middle-aged woman turned around, she found that she was staring at a reptilian creature. And it was staring back at her. Fun! Mumbling incoherently under her breath, Walker was quick to look away and continue minding her business, though she noticeably stopped moving. You know, just in case there were more animals like it around. This is... A bit foolish, she mused while sighing to herself, What if those animals turn out to be hostile? Now that would-

A loud noise caused her to yelp, "Ah!", as she tensed up her entire body. Her first instinct, one that she was continually ashamed of having, was freezing. She had frozen since she was a young girl, and there wasn't any indication that she'd let go of her habit now. This was fine. This was definitely fine. For a solid several seconds, she stood there trembling - expecting the absolute worst. A big animal? Her mother? You decide! She sure wasn't though, as she ended up scurrying over to what appeared to be a cavern eventually. With some effort, of course.

"This could be better than getting eaten," the woman muttered while being enveloped by darkness. The fact that some of her clothes were being stained by mud and dirt likely didn't matter too much to her, given that she could just wash them in the river when this supposed danger passed. In the cavern, however, she noticed the same reptilian creature from earlier looking back at her. Or... At least another member of the same species... Walker gulped as they looked into each other's eyes. With a shaky hand, she asked with a tremor, "You... You do not expect me to stay here, do you? I... I do apologize for being here like this..."

Not that an answer was expected, but... Alas.

Amelia Wolfypoof

Amelia sat hiding in a bush holding her breath. First, she woke up on a mysterious island in the middle of no where. And now she had found a dinosaur! She found it while exploring the island. It surprised her so much that she ran away and hid. She didn't even look back to see if it followed. Amelia doesn't know a lot about dinosaurs but she was hoping at most that it wouldn't hurt her. She peeked outside the bush and saw that the cost was clear. With a relived sigh, she turned to leave.

And then she screamed. The dinosaur was right in front of her! She broke a branch off a nearby tree and waved it in the air. "S-stay back!" she wailed. Though up close the dinosaur didn't look all that threatening. She gently put down the branch.

"Ah... A friendly one, are we?" she asked. "Th-that's good... Let's be friends and find a way out of here..." 

Hayes Tack PicklePantry

Hayes didn't have much of a brain, so he didn't have much of a memory. So he didn't question it when he found himself in an entirely new area. No large buildings or fast-moving blocks of steel, just a bunch of trees and sand. But more importantly, it was land. Land that needed protecting.
Hayes swung his head to the side to see someone else here, someone calling for help. A bunny...? Bunnies ate up grass. But... she didn't look completely like a bunny. She looked like a person too. Did she own this land?
"You," he said and wobbled over towards her, his arms swinging at his side. "You own. Land? This land? You are. Farmer? Land. Is very. Nice. Needs protection. I can. Protect it. From crows. And bugs. And. People. Bad people. I will. Protect land. For you."
It seems he would never truly grasp the situation.


Hayes spun around when hearing the voice, but before he could even register the words, Shadow Boss burst in to protect him. It's difficult to tell if he was aware of what was happening, but there was SOME consciousness as he waddled towards the burly demon. "Friend," he rasped. Only one word, but a new one, and one he associated Shadow Boss with.
The two looked at Lucanus when he invited them to his manor. He would have ignored the comment had he not heard that golden word: land. "Land," he repeated. "Land? You have. Land? That. Needs protecting?" He shuffled towards the young man. "I will. Help. Help protect. Land." He looked at Shadow Boss. "We help. Friend help."

 Lucanus eadie

Lucanus removes his sweater vest and neatly hangs it over a somewhat clean looking rock. If it falls onto the sand, it'll take forever to clean it all out. He doesn't really remember what led up to this strange island, though he doesn't seem to be worried. Weird things happen all the time, and if he's gone for too long someone is bound to come looking for him. In fact, Lucanus is quite enjoying his short time spent on this island. It's much different compared to the scenery he's been surrounded by for years. The heat from the sun on his skin is lovely to the man who can never get warm enough back in his home. 

He notices the scarecrow a tad bit late, but once his eyes finally fall upon the outstanding being in the sand he can't tear his gaze away from it. It is a scarecrow, indeed, but it is sentient. It wobbles as it walks, and some part of Lucanus immediately feels pity for it. Though, that isn't an abnormal sensation; anything that is inhuman instantly gains a soft spot in Lucanus. He approaches cautiously, unsure if the thing is hostile or not. Scarecrows don't belong on islands, at least Lucanus doesn't think so. But neither does he. 

The wobbling of a scarecrow reminds him of a colt on wobbling knees. Naturally, Lucanus wonders if he'd be able to take this supernatural being home with him. He's not knowledgeable of sentient scarecrows, but he wouldn't mind learning.

"Hello." He calls softly, warmly, close enough to a kindergarten teacher speaking to a pupil. "Excuse me, do you know where we are? It seems I don't remember how I got here, but this isn't my home at all. Would you mind helping me?"



pls no lucanus is just a baby

Lucanus screams, his voice high and shrill and seeping with absolute fear. Really, for someone who lives with demonic entities his reaction to one is quite piss-poor. Even if he hadn't been bumped into by a large, shadowy chest, Lucanus would've ended up on the ground anyways. It's a miracle he hadn't wet himself, though his eyes were swimming with tears by this point. "I-I-" He balks, the strange somewhat aggressive being and his very aggressive words only serving to continue Lucanus' growing confusion in their awful situation. 

His mouth gapes as the large, strange beast continues to talk, though his threatening words don't seem to have any backbone to them. Lucanus knows what truly vicious demons look like, and this tall, dark being definitely isn't one.

It takes him a brief moment to collect himself after being terribly frightened, but eventually Lucanus stands, wiping his butt off of any sand. "O-Okay," He swallows thickly, trying to be as calm and collected as he was when he spoke to the scarecrow. "I-I'll just be over... there..." He points back towards his sweater vest. "Um... I think," He stares down at his feet. Oh, no. His shoes are gonna get full of sand. He feels his heart in his throat, but he would never have a clear conscience if he doesn't try to convince these two abnormal beings to come home with him. "I-I think I'll have someone coming for me soon... s-so, um, when that happens," He turns his head, staring out at the open water that keeps them trapped on this island. He feels his heart in his throat, but he would never have a clear conscience if he doesn't try to convince these two abnormal beings to come home with him. "Would the two of you like to come with me...? You don't have to stay, but I think that my manor would be a very safe place for the two of you." Lucanus peeks around the shadow man, towards the scarecrow. "I have land that needs protecting. I could use your help."
