Beach

[ella]

(A) pleasant beach, with shallow water.

[Jia ♥]

Parker walked onto the beach. He had his ear buds in.

[Jia ♥]

Parker was just wandering around and listening to his favorite playlist. He didn't have any homework and so he was going to the beach to enjoy the quiet. ((sorry I forgot this was a semi advanced))

[Jia ♥]

((ya still here?))

[Jia ♥]

Parker's playlist ended so he took out his ear buds. It was nice out today. He took out his phone and took a photo of the beach. That was definitely a keeper. He failed to notice a girl coming near him.

Elliot walked along the beach, watching his feet sink into the damp sand with every step he took. His skin stung from the salty air and his hair had some bits of sand in it. Every so often he looked out to the sea that stretched to the horizon, watching the waves and wondering what secrets they carried. He wondered if it had been the waves that had washed away his past, or the small raft he had been too afraid to leave. Or perhaps it had been the blazing sun, bleaching his memories and his hair simultaneously. He wondered a lot, but he never really knew. Everything about him was a theory. He examined the bracelets on his wrists, pushed them back to reveal paler skin. He'd clearly worn them for a long time. Maybe he liked making them. It was probably true. But maybe there was another reason, as there aways could be. They could be friendship bracelets; the memories they'd long contained faded by the saltwater and sun. He looked at his hands, examining the nicks and scratches over his knuckles and fingers. Were they paper-cuts or signs of a little boy who played outside? He exchanged looks with a pelican as it bobbed on the waves. Was he familiar with the sea, or was he experiencing a newness without knowledge of its significance? He knew there was something out there, far away, past the horizon and the pelicans and the sun that warmed the sea. He knew there was something out there, because if there wasn't...
If there wasn't, that meant that he had come from nothing. That he was nothing. He kicked the ground and a spray of sand was blown back into his face by the wind, never content to leave him to his misery. He spat. He didn't feel like nothing. Of course, he wouldn't know what nothing felt like, would he? There was a shout from far away, back at the academy. It was probably Croissant Boy. He ignored it. He waded into the sea, let it wet his feet so that when he walked back to the dry sand it would stick like inefficient cement. Why did he do something that would inevitably cause him discomfort? Only in the moment were his actions fulfilling. Was it always that way? Or was the lack of past spurring his actions, as if his brain was trying to create a new past as soon as possible; trying to fill the void where memories once were with actions, whether or not they were reasonable?

Parker looked up and saw a girl next to him who appeared to be speaking to him. "Hi, I'm Parker" He said giving her a half smile.

Parker nodded. "Alright let's go to the cafe, get you some food and we can talk ok?"" trust me? " he asked flashing her a smile and holding his hand out.

[Jia ♥]

((lol he's such an Aladdin right now I didn't even realize it))

Parker grinned partly surprised and said "Alright then let's go". He then led the way to the cafe. ((ya they need to meet up again I have Caelana now if ya want))

Radcliff Levett's raft floated up to the shore, with him lying unconscious on top of it. He blinked and slowly got up. He was soaked, although his hair was still sticking up all over the place. Radcliff tried to think, to remember what had happened, but it was all blank. Don't hyperventilate. What do I remember? My name is Radcliff Levett, I'm... I'm fourteen, right? I think? The boy shook his head and looked around for someone, anyone who might possibly be able to help him.

Elliot was too engrossed in his feet and his moping to notice the raft that had floated to shore until he bumped into it. He looked up and saw a boy about his age. he looked confused, maybe even a little frightened. Elliot sighed. "Don't try to remember anything because you can't and you won't," he droned, not meeting the boy's eyes. This was painful, of course. it was the same thing he's heard when he'd arrived. But pain was not something to be shared. "You're on a f(nope)in' island and now you have to go to some dumbf(nope) school I guess."

Parker was behind Ray and began searching as well. It hasn't strange that Ray had an attachment to her watch. It just proved that she really was like every other person who had appeared on that raft. Most people appeared on the island with something like an accessory that they felt an attachment to. For him it was his earbuds. He loved listening to music and blocking out his thoughts and feelings. Some people didn't come with anything. Some people found something on their first few days of the island that they became attached to. That's how it had been for Jake and Fiona. Parker shook the thoughts away and concentrated on looking for the watch. He could not get wrapped up in depressed thoughts at the time being.

[Jia ♥]

Parker shook his head. "Its nothing....Not that important... You found it! Great!" he said.

[Jia ♥]

Parker shook his head. "There's nothing you can do." he said kind of exasperated. "Its like I said people disappear from the island and my best friends disappeared a few months ago leaving me by myself and there was nothing I could do about it."

“That’s... straightforward.” Radcliffe said with a nervous laugh. He was a little scared of the guy, to be honest. “Does this happen a lot? People just... show up and can’t remember anything?” He ran a hand through his hair, only for it to get stuck.

{{i'll respond in a bit, currently multitasking}}

[Jia ♥]

Parker nodded, " Sure"

[Jia ♥]

((where to start? North Aster?))

[geoflame || inactive :(]

Elliot shrugged. "S'pose so. It's all that's happened so far." He started trekking up the beach. "Oh well, I really must be going," he said in a mocking fake-posh accent. "It truly is a shame."

{{wish that could have been better, i might go back and fix some of it later}}
