Day One

[diejoubu]

Day One The nations arrive on the nameless island by boat at mid-afternoon. They will be dropped off at a quiet dock and boat will leave shortly after. At the end of the dock, they will find some items that have been sent ahead for them by their bosses. Among these items are: - Four tents - Packs of bottled water and snacks - A fishing net and a pair of poles - Two pots and a pan - Four first aid kits - A limited supply of alcohol - An emergency radio - A limited supply matches/lighters - Two maps of the island The beach is nice; clean with white sand and a shady forest up the shore. Aside from the sounds of the waves, seagulls, and the wind blowing through the forest, the island is silent. The nations wanted to a deserted, tropical island getaway and this is certainly the right place for it. The Nations can begin to set up camp or try to explore the island. Due to the time they arrived on the island, they won't be able to get too far before night falls. Activity Weather: Sunny, clear, and warm with the occasional cool breeze. Electronics: Electronic items will work fine during the day without issue. If you're desperate to update your Tw*tter account, you might get lucky and find an area on the beach with a faint signal. It will take a few tries and some patience but you will be able to update your social network of choice or make a brief phone call before you lose connection. Magic: Magic will work normally on the island during the day. Animals: Any animal companions brought to the island by a nation will stay close to their companion. Otherwise, they will act normally. ???: No unusual activity. Day One | Night One Day 2 will go up on 4 June

Tent assembly for Tent 2!!

[proud_and_prussian]

For once, Prussia has his priorities straight. Instead of mucking about, he sets his eyes on the pile of tents and immediately rushed over to claim one.

"I claim this tent in the name of the incredible Prussia!!"

[metronomelody]

[Setting up the tent is good and all, however Austria is utterly certain it can be done in a much quieter manner than that.]

Do stop shouting.

[affectionatewinds]

I see it didn't take you long to pick one, Prussia.

[ She will just, awkwardly look at the pile and hum thoughtfully. ]

[gesta_danorum]

It looks like a pretty big tent, Prussia. What, are ya gonna sleep in there all by yourself? Sounds lonely t' me!

[spanglish]

Aaaaaaaaaaaay, this is so pretty!

[and so, puerto rico was the first one to flop on the sand.]

[volcanoes]

I guess it's okay.

[Slathering on sunscreen already he is going to burn anyway though.]

There's not a lot to do, though.

[koyo]

It is nice, isn't isn't? ( Suddenly shade! When Spain drops a sun hat on her from above. ) It's too bad the others couldn't come too.

( BECAUSE THEN IT WOULD BE A FAMILY VACATION AND THAT WOULD BE REALLY NICE. RIGHT? RIGHT??? )

[commie_island]

[Rolling his eyes. Oh "family".]

What, you don't have sand in your home?

[lefteros]

[Tents... eh, later. Greece would rather take his shoes off and go for a stroll along the water. The cat that got out of his bag, however, would rather not, and is staying as close as the tide will let it.

That, getting in your way, or clawing its way up your leg when you or Greece wander too far in the surf.]

[koyo]

( Calling out from a bit off, Spain waves from farther up the beach. )

Grecia, where did you find your new friend?

Tent 3 Setup

[vytis]

[Well, first things first, probably. Lithuania will grab one of the tents.]

We should probably set this up now so we don't have to later.

[likesottlyfab]

Wow, Liet. It's been like a whole five minutes since we got here and you totally already found the most boring thing to do already.

I think this is a new record.

[redwhiteandhero]

[Woo hoo beach times!! America tosses his stuff down haphazardly in the sand and splashes into the ocean like the giant child that he is.]

[spanglish]

[don't know if want or really really want to punch.]

along the beach-ish area!!

[sanskrit]

[If you look near India, you'll see a big pile of coconuts and him carrying a rather large machete. He's smiling, though, singing a song to himself and possibly even dancing.

He'll probably offer you a fresh coconut for a drink/snack or maybe you offer you a hat made from the leaves he collected.]

[spanglish]

[you are, like, her kind of person, machete bro.]

Hoooolaaaa! Can I join?

[americanthighs]

Heck yeah! A vacation! Finally!

[Throws her arms in the air, kicking her sandals off into the sand.]

[longwhitecloud]

You should take more days off, if that bothers you. [Two days hiking, or a nice bungee jump, or a couple of days just camping in the countryside, and things look up.]

[bauhinia]

[ Guess who is currently trying to take pictures of everything in order to upload them to 微博?

If you guessed this guy, you'd be right. ]

[volcanoes]

No one needs that many photos.

[motheringnation]

[Walking around on the beach.]

Oh, it's really nice here.

[za_rodina]

It is, isn't it?

[zhongguo]

[China is setting up the tent. You can thank him later. His back won't.]

[za_rodina]

That one doesn't go there. [He's not looking at direction or anything, but he's totally right, you know?]

[commie_island]

[In no way avoiding Spain or America....the two of them. Figures. He's looking around the place. It's not terrible]

[federalism]

[But there is too much sand.]

How similar is this to your house?

at the spring

[volcanoes]

[Iceland has opted for both getting away from all the noisiness and taking cover under some trees and ducked off into the forest for a while. Norway would be proud, maybe, if he wasn't off looking at trees. But it's not long before he comes to the spring, and he decides sitting on the bank and reading is a good idea. At least it's a bit cooler here.]

Peekaboo

[proud_and_prussian]

[That may or not be a rustle you may have heard, Iceland. Someone saw you heading off and away from the main group...

[proud_and_prussian]

[After putting up that tent and scaring Iceland, Prussia is bored and unsure what to do. So he's just hanging around and taking candid shots.

Also, he totally did not swap Austria's sunscreen for shampoo. Nope.

Spoiler, he did.]

[federalism]

[Unsure if he should ask Prussia what he has done now or not.

Opting for "it will be revealed soon anyway" and just coming over to stand next to his brother.]

Did you use the sunscreen, brother?

the spring

[sheshipsit]

[ She may be old as a very old thing (well... not compared to a lot of her tent mates), but Portugal is already wandering away from the main group to explore a bit. It won't be for long as it'll be sun down pretty soon by the looks of things, but still, she's quite used to getting half-lost in jungles. For now though, she's sticking to the path at least and has let it bring her to the spring. It's a peaceful relief compared to the beach and she might as well fetch some more water while she's here. Seems likely some of the other nations will guzzle all of the bottled stuff in no time. ]

[zhongguo]

[Assuming this is mid morning and the tent is sorted out, China should be nearby trying to coax the birds out of the trees.]

by the beach

[affectionatewinds]

[ Happily enjoying the light breeze over by the beach, taking it as a chance to work on a dress she started sewing before she came to the island, looking back up at the sky every once in awhile, a very fancy looking hat shading her face for now. ]

Really pretty...

[proud_and_prussian]

[Oh, it's that girl Switzerland asked him to take care off. Better go and check in on her. Not because she's cute and all. Nope. Just looking out for his well-being here.]

Hey Vögelchen, what are you doing? You should be having fun with the rest of us, not sitting by yourself here.

[Switzerland had threatened to cut off his tongue if he so much as dropped a 'shit' around the girl. Not willing to test that theory, Prussia's being as careful as ever with his language.]

German tent fun

[federalism]

[So it has been up for one hour and is already full of sand. It cannot stay this way, so Germany will try to clean it out as well as he can.]

Go Team Germanics!

[proud_and_prussian]

[And guess who comes traipsing in, bring more sand with him?]

WEEEEEEEEST~

Tent 3 / Beach

[balzams]

[Almost as soon as he arrives Latvia dumps his stuff by the tent, not caring at all to help Lithuania. Quickly unzipping the case he rummages through, dragging out his swimming trunks and something plastic and folded and runs off into more unseen territory to change.

Not long after you can find him sitting on the beach attempting to blow up a rather large inner tube. It's made of translucent plastic with a slightly blue tint and Latvia seems to be having a hard time getting it fully inflated]

/evil plotz

[proud_and_prussian]

[Someone's creeping up behind Latvia, with a plastic bag filled with...something inside.]

midday, near the spring

[zhongguo]

[In search of peace and quiet, China has found a nice patch of shade, laid out his blanket, and is napping like a Disney princess with the bird friends he made earlier.]

[americanthighs]

China! Are you taking a nap??

[Because that's what you do when you think someone might be sleeping... Shout.]

Loner tent/beach

[gezellig]

[Holland sets his copious luggage on the ground with a sigh. After exactly 10 seconds of watching the others set up their tents, he's already digging into his duffel for his own tent.

Because sharing is definitely not happening. He'll be setting up his tent and his camp stove.]

Once his tent is set up, he is taking his hammock, sunscreen, towel and book to the beach. The hammock fits nicely between two palm trees; he'll just be lounging here, sunglasses on.

[proud_and_prussian]

[What looked like a promising time off is cut short when Prussia spots Netherlands all by himself. Immediately he runs over, shouting to catch his attention.]

Hey Netherbutt!! Stop being such a damn nerd and do something fun for once!
