Cavern Tavern II

Mansion: between the ship and the shore

If anyone wants to arrive via dog rescue, feel free to have Mel paddle by and tow them the rest of the way in. Otherwise, I'll assume she arrives without incident and have her meet up with Faye's search party.

I think Mr. Waters should be rescued by Mel. It could be hilarious.

Are we supposed to assume that there are other people aboard the boat besides the active characters or is it a really small cruise?

Mansion: Titan IC

It seems someone else had the same idea, Twigs. I've been assuming that there were other people aboard other than those who have actively posted/been posted about (at the very least, there were more stewards/stewardesses mentioned than have been actively named). I think, for simplicity's sake, it might be best to assume that anyone who isn't an active character is either on another part of the island or didn't make it to shore.

SHOW SPOILER "stargazer's last post"

I hope the former is what happened to Angie!!

I suspect the search party will only find other player characters, so to speak; I only brought it up because that's what Faye would've thought to do.

Mansion - On the Beach

I was thinking the same thing, Rya - that the ship would have other staff and probably passengers other than those named.

I just picked a rather short time for Dan to go searching in my latest post (half an hour), as opposed to defining how much daylight is left.

aileth, I chuckled both at the reaction to Mel's rescue and at the name of the stewardess involved.

Mansion

I'm leaving Maeve and Kaelin out floating for now. If someone wants to find them, that's fine, if not, they'll find their way on to the island on their own.

Also, Maeve has medical field training from the wars, so she can sub in as medic if necessary.

Mansion - Search Party Bravo

aileth, I assumed that Molly joined Dan and Faye for the time being - let me know if you wanted her elsewhere and I'll edit.

[aileth]

Yeah, Rya, I think she was going with them, so that's perfectly fine. I'm prepared to have my characters dragged into any sort of action, so go for it.

Mansion - Search Parties

Depending on what it is that Molly found, you can go ahead and assume that Faye vocalizes her idea about splitting up again into two pairs as soon as the conversation allows for it - or someone else can suggest the same thing, if you're so inclined. (If Molly finds something that makes that question irrelevant, then I'll adjust Faye's plans according. )

I think we've found everyone now except Maeve and Kaelin and Angie (all of whom I believe have been intentionally stranded for the time being ), so once we've resolved Ainsley's broken/injured leg and Molly's discovery, how does everyone feel about doing a time skip and heading back to camp? stargazer, I know Dan will want to keep looking, and I don't know what else people have planned, I just wanted to throw the idea out there and see if we were ready to reunite everyone.

Mansion: Cruise, island, camp
aileth, could you have Mr. Waters either collect coconuts or decline to? Thanks!

[Delia Death]

It's great to see the Tavern so active again! Just a quick reminder, please remember to label what story your posts are concerning! I know only one story is running right now, but it never hurts to built the habit. You can also feel free (and I've noticed some of you have already done so) to label which sub-part of your story you are discussing.

Toodles!

Mansion - Jungle contingent

aileth, feel free to assume that Faye asked the question after they started going into the jungle if convenient for you. It seemed like that was still the plan, but I decided to be vague just in case.

Mansion - Those Yet To Arrive

If anyone wants to be run across by/hauled in by a mermaid, shout.

[stargazer]

Mansion - Under (or in) the Sea

You read my mind, Lady Arwen! I'll be writing a post this afternoon allowing them to rescue poor Angela Baxter.

[Ryadian]

Mansion - Base Camp

Since Faye does not have the training required to help Ainsley, and neither do I , I'm assuming that someone else is helping her in the background while Faye is making other plans. Feel free to have something happen retroactively between her musings, I'm just trying to get our camp set up.

Mansion: Titan IC
I plan on post in thread sometime tomorrow. People can feel free to decide what can reasonably be found in the pile of wreakage Twig's collected. There is definitely at least one door and some bits of ship's railing. Twig's also has a beach towel, a winter coat, several sweaters, embroidery floss, needles, scissors, one tube of sunscreen, and a water bottle that is not full. Oh and some larger things still down by the water like a water slide.

I really wanted to do research to figure out what could reasonably be salvaged but I don't have a cruise ship to break apart. I considered filling my bathtub and seeing if my duffel bag floats but I didn't want to ruin the bag if something went wrong.

[Lady Arwen]

Mansion: Base Camp

Oooh, ooh, I know this one! Some bags can float because they are coated in linseed oil, which acts as a waterproofing agent. As long as the zipper isn't compromised or soaked, or the contents overly heavy, in theory, it could happen.
