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

I guess it's okay.

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

There's not a lot to do, though.

[spanglish]

[she's just excited to be considered important enough to be here.]

It's not as great or as fun as my place, [--swagger!!--] buuuuuut I'm pretty sure it'll be, como que, good? Yeah, good!

Really good!

[volcanoes]

Maybe if there was a resort. [More sunscreen. Iceland can feel the sun threatening him.] Or somewhere inside that isn't a tent.

[Sitting down on the sand and pulling out his iPhone because apparently Iceland doesn't know how to have fun on a beach without electronics.]

[spanglish]

[oh my god why so much sunscreen]

Ayyy, I love tents! It's like having a sleepover!

[rolling over. she's starting to miss her Blackberry -- if only because her playlist is in there and it's totally invigorating!]

Except America is here.

[volcanoes]

[Because he's a Nordic and he doesn't know how to tan.]

You can probably just ignore him, can't you? I mean, he's over there. [Gesturing vaguely at the ocean, which is close enough a location okay.]

[spanglish]

[he's going to end up like a lobster.]

But he's so annoying! [huff puff.] Just look at him!

[volcanoes]

[It's true, his skin will be peeling by tomorrow at latest.]

He's not that bad. I mean, maybe sometimes, but it's not like he's Denmark. [Maybe it's just a matter of who you live closer to...]

[spanglish]

Not that bad? [d-don't] Augh! No! For a guy who spends all his time pretending I don't exist, that gringo sure knows how to boss me around! Who does he think he is, coming into my home and telling me what to do?

[...get her started...]

He's the worst! The absolute worst! El peor! Oh, and then! And then, he just comes over and compliments me like he thinks I'm a boba! I'm not stupid, you know! I can't be won like that!!

[EXHALE]

[volcanoes]

[...Trying to get a signal on his iPhone while she goes on.]

I didn't say he wasn't dumb. I dunno if he's the worst ever or anything.

[spanglish]

Who could be worse than America? [siiigh. it's all out of her system now. kind of.]

[volcanoes]

Lots of people, probably. [Deliberately being vague so as to try to avoid another rant.] Ugh, it's so hot here.

[spanglish]

[good going, look at how fast her demeanor changes!!]

Not that much, but if you think it's too hot, you should take a dip in the ocean! It'll cool you right off!

[volcanoes]

...I don't know... [Iceland still has a shirt and shorts on, even if the shorts are over top of swim trunks. He is just so skinny it is embarrassing to have too much skin exposed.] Maybe the tents are cooler.

[spanglish]

[ok no she's just going to laugh. loudly.]

[volcanoes]

[...Wilting a little. Not literally though. Yet.]
