    Lyoufln Hey, sorry I've been away. Sure you can. :)

    (Hiya @simscognito . I'll post something now)

    *a woman appears to be napping a little ways away on the beach*

    *Gema spots someone napping on the bench. She prods Marie.*
    Marie: Ow!
    Gema: Look!
    Marie: *Follows Gema's finger. She too sees the woman napping on the bench* Where did she come from?
    Gema: Don't know. *Cautiously approaches the woman*

    *the woman appears pretty relaxed, considering where she is. She also looks pretty young. Why would she be here?*

    The woman mumbles something, and wakes up. She sits up, yawns and stretches...and then notices Gema and Maria.

    *rather startled*
    ??: “How’d you get here?”

    *she looks around, probably starting to get nervous, but doesn't express that on her face or in her voice* "Er...this is a different island, isn't it?"

    *rather startled*
    ??: “How’d you get here?”

    Gema: *rather taken aback* We were going to ask you the same question.

    *The woman seems very confused*

    ??: "No-one's allowed here without my family's permission...and Dad never gives--" *sees palm tree* "Um, that wasn't there when I fell asleep."

    *she looks around, probably starting to get nervous, but doesn't express that on her face or in her voice* "Er...this is a different island, isn't it?"

    Gema: Well I don't know your island so can't tell you.
    Marie: *Fidgets nervously but her face also remains expressionless*

    ??: “W-where are we then?”

    Gema: Your guess is as good as ours... so who are you exactly?

    Valerie: "Oh, uh. I'm Valerie." *smiles* "My bad for getting angry at you. I wasn't expecting to wake up to two strangers."

    Gema: Hey we get it. We found ourselves stranded here too. I'm Gema by the way, and this is my younger sister, Marie.
    Marie: *Nods but avoids eye contact*

    Valerie: "Well..." *looks around* "I guess we should do something to make this situation better. Nothing I'm not used to. Do you two have any form of shelter?"
    Gema: No. Can you build one?

    Valerie: "Yeah. We'll need to find some wood though." *thinks about small cabin she build at home. It's not much, and only large enough for a single bed, but it's something*

    Gema: Ok well we've got lots of wood so that shouldn't be a problem. *Pointing to the island forest*

    Lyoufln Hey, sorry I've been away. Sure you can. :)

    (Hiya @simscognito . I'll post something now)

    ***

    *a woman appears to be napping a little ways away on the beach*

    *Gema spots someone napping on the bench. She prods Marie.*
    Marie: Ow!
    Gema: Look!
    Marie: *Follows Gema's finger. She too sees the woman napping on the bench* Where did she come from?
    Gema: Don't know. *Cautiously approaches the woman*

    *the woman appears pretty relaxed, considering where she is. She also looks pretty young. Why would she be here?*

    Gema: Uhm... should I wake her?
    Marie: Why would I know? I'm not the socially savvy one.
    Gema: *Cautiously prods the sleeping woman*

    The woman mumbles something, and wakes up. She sits up, yawns and stretches...and then notices Gema and Maria.

    *rather startled*
    ??: “How’d you get here?”

    Gema: *rather taken aback* We were going to ask you the same question.

    *The woman seems very confused*

    ??: "No-one's allowed here without my family's permission...and Dad never gives--" *sees palm tree* "Um, that wasn't there when I fell asleep."

    *she looks around, probably starting to get nervous, but doesn't express that on her face or in her voice* "Er...this is a different island, isn't it?"

    Gema: Well I don't know your island so can't tell you.
    Marie: *Fidgets nervously but her face also remains expressionless*

    ??: “W-where are we then?”

    Gema: Your guess is as good as ours... so who are you exactly?

    Valerie: "Oh, uh. I'm Valerie." *smiles* "My bad for getting angry at you. I wasn't expecting to wake up to two strangers."

    Gema: Hey we get it. We found ourselves stranded here too. I'm Gema by the way, and this is my younger sister, Marie.
    Marie: *Nods but avoids eye contact*

    Valerie: "Well..." *looks around* "I guess we should do something to make this situation better. Nothing I'm not used to. Do you two have any form of shelter?"
    Gema: No. Can you build one?

    Valerie: "Yeah. We'll need to find some wood though." *thinks about small cabin she build at home. It's not much, and only large enough for a single bed, but it's something*

    Gema: Ok well we've got lots of wood so that shouldn't be a problem. *Pointing to the island forest*

    Valerie: *nods* "Alright, will you guys collect wood? I'm gonna go collect some other stuff we'll need."

    *Valerie gets up and goes off to collect grasses, reeds, and/or any suitable plants she can find.*
    *Gema and Marie are left standing awkwardly, not particularly sure where to start*
    Marie: Are... we... expected to cut down trees?
    Gema: Don't be S**** Marie. What the H*** are we gonna use to cut them down? What we need to do is look for fallen branches... I think. *Tbh she was completely winging this*

    (Valerie kinda forgets other people aren't stuck building houses for themselves. :sweat_smile:)

    *Valerie comes back after some time* She's managed to find what she was looking for*

    (Lol! It's lucky she's here because Gema and Marie aren't particularly great at life skills) :joy:
    Marie: Are you sure these sticks are strong enough? *snapping a particularly thin twig in half*
    Gema: Quit the negativity and search for better sticks.
    Marie: How?
    Gema: Why don't you start by putting your energy into searching and not asking annoying questions?

    (Valerie knows more about this stuff than I do, so I'll do my best :joy: Oh, and Valerie's about 19 years old. I feel Gema and Marie are young, but are they around Valerie's age?)

    Valerie: *a little startled by the two of them squabbling* "There's already a bunch of felled wood over there." *points* "We'll have to cut stuff down eventually, I guess...I don't have a saw. Nevermind. Let's get to work"

    *Valerie grabs a log of wood*

    "I've never built something big enough for more than just me. So, this is new."

    *starts setting out wood for construction, as well as some of the stuff she collected to tie twigs and stuff together*

    (bear with me. I'm not a carpenter, so I'm kinda making up stuff as I go :joy:)

    (It's okay. You'll probs know more than me :joy:)

    (Yep, Gema is 19 and Marie is 14. They do act younger than their age though, when they're together. XD)

    Gema: really? *Looks over at the felled wood, quite embarrassed*
    Marie: *A little smug*

    (lets pretend this goes way faster than it does in real life :joy:)

    Valerie: *setting up stuff* "Can you guys hand me wood when I say so?"

    *the frame is roughly set up*

    Valerie: "Once we get the walls up, I'll teach you guys how to thatch a roof." *grins*

    Marie: Hey!
    Gema: Just saying, you can barely lift a hammer without dropping it.
    Marie: That was one time!
    Gema: One time that left me with a very sore toe.

    (Sorry I always get rid of my characters. I get bored fast. Anyways, I have a new one now!)

    Victoria stumbled through the woods on the island. She didn't know where she was or how to get there, only that she was very thankful for her mother making her learn a few practical spells before going off to college. She yelled some words that would have made her mother wash her mouth out with soap if she had been there, and kept wandering.

    Victoria: That cursed Order of Enchantment... Must have been those plum sprites, and at me for leaving the Order! UGHH!!

    Victoria kept wandering, until she stumbled upon a wide, sandy beach. At the end of it, she could have sworn she saw some figures working on something... But it was getting dark, so she simply decided to light a fire in a fire pit to keep warm and eat some food. She gathered some large rocks and put them in a circle to keep the fire contained, then pulled out her want to cast the fire spell.

    Victoria: Inferniate!

    the fire flickered into existance, and she sat down on a nearby piece of driftwood, wondering what would happen to her.

    *Marie's face doesn't change while she processes the information but she is really grateful for the encouraging words*
    Marie: What do I do with these?
