Katla sat down at her usual small table in the canteen, she closed her eyes for a moment, happy to be out of the elements for a little while. While she didn’t mind being on the island for a while, she knew that if she weren’t able to travel out a little ways in order to fish, she would have gone stir crazy by now. Like most of the other pirates, it had been a long time since she’d been in one place for so long. 

Lost in her thoughts, she was surprised to see someone staring back at her. “Oh! I’m sorry, I didn’t notice you. Please, feel free to sit.”

           NIKKI COULDN'T BELIEVE WITH HER EYES, and the blonde a tad tipsy of alcohol already. But this isn't some imagination, there is ACTUALLY, slip n slide; and she couldn't help her tone went high-pitch level. ❛ Yetzeeeeh! ❜ Clapping her hands, and running over the beeline, and then she walked backward when was her turns, and throws herself with everything, enjoying the slides. Her body and her clothes were wet due to her activity. And she was all messy, but she doesn't care. She is having her moment on this thing.

Fiona used her hand to shade her eyes as she took in her bright, sunny surroundings. She didn’t know where she’d expected to be taken after being kidnapped, but whatever she was imagining was certainly nothing like the tropical island where she found herself now. She felt panic and anger bubble up in the pit of her stomach, but she did her best to shove it down, now was not a time that she could afford to act rashly. The first thing she needed to do was find out if her sister was here, and if she was okay. Or at least, as okay as one could possibly be when you were being held hostage. She looked out at the docks and regretted that she hadn’t taken up sailing when she’d had the chance.

Taking the beach before her, she spotted a path snaking through the woods. She set off down it, figuring that the worst had already happened, so what did she have to lose? As she walked she focused on trying to figure out as much as she could about where she was from the plant life and birds she heard, hoping maybe there was something that would give something away. Focused on her surroundings and not the path in front of her, Fiona didn’t notice as she barreled straight in to someone walking towards her. She stumbled back, catching herself just before she could fall, “I’m so sorry, are you alright?” Years of etiquette drilled into her mind taking over.

O P E N

      Everyone got the message about the storm but it still seemed like it was business as usual. At least for those who can safely work inside. Zipping up his jacket, he kept his hood up and head down as he made his way over to the canteen both because of his shift and to check on his siblings. Yes, he could text them but he’d prefer to see if they were telling him the truth when they say they are okay. It’s easier for them both to lie to him over the phone, but even then he would still question them both. 

      Leo was coming to work early, when he was safely inside he took off his hood and looked around the canteen, locking eyes with only one other person. The Italian charming smile crossed his features as he approached the others. “It’s like a damn ghost town in here. Suppose it’ll be an easy day today?”

There was nothing Arielle hated about summer. Well maybe mosquitoes, but that was it. It was one of her favorite seasons along with spring so to say that the Belgian princess was enjoying it, was something obvious. You could see it on her sight, the glow that emanated from the feeling of the weather on her skin, the endless nights she’d sit on the beach to enjoy the summer breeze. Yes it was one of her favorite seasons. And the party...she was lately enjoying the events the Tulach threw to get relaxed and to bond. That was why she was standing on a corner, glass in hand and looking around, enjoying the view.

Gwen wandered along the beach, trying to take in everything around her. It felt good to be on solid ground again, the waves had been choppy and she had been more than a little bit seasick on the boat ride here. She was exhausted, but the nervousness of being in this unfamiliar place, not knowing what was waiting for her here kept her mind on high alert. Everything that was happening seemed to be happening all at once and Gwen felt like she might get lost underneath the wave of emotions all vying to spill out of her. She was tempted to cry, but she was determined to hold herself together until she could at least be in private. She knew she was supposed to be going to somewhere called the Main House, but she had lost sight of the pathway. Letting out a sigh of frustration, Gwen plopped down into the sand, unsure of what to do next.

The sound of his boots scuffing against the planks of the dock at the edge of the island was one that brought Alec Tulach equal parts comfort and misery— being on the sea was in his blood but he had avoided joining his family long enough and he could admit that he missed them far more than he might tell them ( far more than he’d tell Emerson, at any rate, because she’d never let him hear the end of it ). He nodded briefly to one of the mates unloading the cargo they’d brought along with them before he whistled sharply and smiled when his dog Penelope trotted up to settle at his feet-- her tail wagging eagerly when he reached down to give her an affectionate scratch behind the ears. “Home sweet home, eh, my girl?” Alec murmured, the rolling burr of his accent thick and present for the first time in months. It felt comfortable, at least, not to disguise the parts of himself that came the most naturally.

“We should check in, eh?” He asked, blue eyes flickering towards Penelope whose tail was still wagging happily. She barked twice and Alec grinned as he reached for the rolled spliff tucked behind his ear and lit it-- taking a slow drag as he patted his thigh to encourage Penelope to follow him and pushed away from the docks towards the center of the cluster of buildings that made up the island’s infrastructure. It was only a few minutes before a large building came into view and Alec found himself lingering outside with the cigarette hanging from his lips as he crouched to give Penelope proper attention before a shadow fell over him, “The smoke botherin’ ye or something? Or is the dog that’s caught your eye?” He raised his gaze with a broad smile, “Or d’ye want a puff? Ask real nice, now-- I don’t give this up for just anyone.”

Fingertips threaded through the sand, letting the small grains of sand ground her to reality. Sapphire eyes flickered up towards the sky, taking in the sight of the moon as a shiver ran up her spine. Leilani never did well with change, it was something that she truly hated.  She vaguely remembers when her mother announced that she was pregnant with her youngest brother... the almost hatred that she had felt in her chest at the thought of it no longer just being the four of them; but give her some slack, she was a child at the time. But now... now Leilani is somewhere new, surrounded by some people that she hardly knew, and faces that were brand new to her. Sure, the blonde was bound to get used to the new surroundings, but it’d most defintely take some time. Ears picking up on footsteps, her head turned. “Hi!” She called out, figuring she may as well make some friends whilst she was here. “I’m Leilani.” A warm smile turned up on her lips, trying to seem as open as possible to the person.
