hey hey heyyy
everyone shut up for a minute, i wanna figure out something *actually* useful!!
can everyone else see those mountains waaaaaaay off in the distance? or i guess maybe they're closer for you guys ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
whatever
if you can see them then try facing them and tell me where the sun is in relation to you
it seems like morning right now so we can probably assume that direction is east!
unless we're on some kind of alien planet lol
and i guess this can double as a roll call
jeeeez i have to do everything around here!!

so whoever's near you can find you!
i didn't think i'd have to explain that part!!
what, are you the edgy lone wolf type?
are you just gonna abandon whoever's near you and let them die all alone in the jungle???
wow, you're *heartless*!

I say we just give up on this one and leave them to die.

[Not actually something she'd do, but she's totally fine with SH442K thinking it's something she'd do.]

[trialbyliar]

We are not leaving anyone to die.

Spoilsport.

[A beat.]

Look, don't worry about it; I'm not serious. Rah rah, we're all in this together, annoying assholes included.

[lonelynotforsaken]

Okay. I just... I don't think we need to be mean to each other, either. All of us are in a really tricky spot. Why make it worse?

[cactusy]

I said the words "we're all in this together" out loud.

[That's not mean!!]

[lonelynotforsaken]

I meant about your first comment. Words mean things. And this is the first impression we're getting of each other.

[cactusy]

Okay, Mr. Rogers.

[lonelynotforsaken]

[He feels his cheeks dust with color.]

Blackwood, actually. Martin Blackwood. And thank you. I don't think there's anything wrong with being compared to someone like that.

[cactusy]

It was only half an insult.

[lonelynotforsaken]

It just might be nice... all of us being good neighbors to each other. Especially when we're all reeling from just-just being here?

[cactusy]

Would you have said "good neighbors" if I hadn't mentioned Mr. Rogers?

[is she bringing this torment on herself]

[lonelynotforsaken]

[...]

Well, no, but you pointed it out. I'm also aware of the Frost poem, though, and the wisdom that good fences make good neighbors.

[sharktrash]

Sure beats dying together doesn't it??

[trialbyliar]

that sounds so lonely.....

[Isn't he sooo sympathetic? Except he continues after a beat.]

buuut i'm lying! i don't plan on dying at all!
especially not with any of you losers (^_<)〜☆
so it's no skin off my back if you wanna go it alone!

[sharktrash]

Cool

[ That's it. His only response. Bye. ]

[trialbyliar]

cool, bye bye!! (o´▽`o)ﾉ
