I'm up for this.
Parade had already started toward the path when she heard a voice - Eil's - agreeing to come along with her. She stopped, and waited patiently for her new companion. "How - big?" Parade tapped her cheek, thinking. "Euh... really big. Are you coming?" her tone and expression were not impatient; in fact, she smiled gently, giving Eil all the time she needed to make a decision. Oliver glanced over his shoulder at the sound of Adrian's voice - he had been unaware that the guy had been following them, and was more than a little startled to see him there. Oliver turned his gaze forward and crossed his arms. "Whatever," he mumbled. "You'll get used to it." --- "What?" Oliver crossed his arms defensively, scowling slightly at the confession cam. "The guy snuck up on me. Not cool, man." --- He turned his attention to Vi. "Any idea where we're going?" he asked softly, flipping his hair. Seeing the group split up even more, Autumn made the arbitrary decision to follow Ned. "Hey! Wait up!" She shouted after him, running in the direction he had disappeared. She ran at full speed until he came into view, suddenly doubled over in pain and splashing himself. "Hey -" she hardly had time to stop before smashing into him at full-speed, tumbling headfirst over him and knocking them both into the creek. "S-sorry!" she stammered, trying to stand but struggling to get a solid footing on the slippery rocks.
“Aw jeez, is my tic back?” Oliver not-so-subtly winked at Heloise again. “Damn. Thought I outgrew that.” He smirked as he walked passed her to join the group. --- “Hey, what can I say?” Oliver shrugged at the Confession Cam. “She's smooth. I'm smoother.” --- He watched as Ned walked off into the woods, and crossed his arms. “Well, that's one way to split the party. Are we just gonna let him wander off by himself?” He glanced to the rest of the group. No one else seemed to have any more of an idea than he did, and oh look, someone else was wandering off by herself. Well, whatever. He followed Vi, but didn't say anything to her just yet. Autumn shaded her eyes, watching the helicopter speed away. “Hunh?!” She pouted, and let out an exaggerated sigh. “Well, just standing here isn't going to do us any good. Does anyone have a -” She cut herself off as several people split off and went in different directions. “Oh. Good plan.” Parade was too dazzled by the sight of the helicopter to notice the group splintering off. Was that – a giant metal bird? But it has no wings! So bizarre, this place! Once she had recovered, she turned to notice the group had become smaller. “Oh... are we going, then?” The host man had said they needed to find camp. But he hadn't said in which direction camp was... Parade took note of the sun's position in the sky, and then watched the flow of the current; then she started observing the flora, looking for any sort of beaten path. --- Cut to the Confession Cam, where Parade was staring into the camera lens, making a small, curious noise. She tapped the lens several times before turning her attention to the rest of the booth, unsure of what to make of it. --- “That way.” Parade pointed toward what she thought looked like a lightly travelled path. “I think we should go that way.”
Oliver took a deep breath, waiting impatiently for his moment, watching the others disembark before him. Finally, he heard his name. “Showtime,” he mumbled, puffing out his chest and giving his best tough-guy impression before quickly strolling off the boat. He glanced around at the other contestants, memorizing their faces, and positioned himself next to Heloise, sending a not-so-subtle wink her way as he did so. “THE WINNER HAS ARRIVED!!” Autumn announced, striking a pose. She sashayed off the boat, smiling brightly, and high-fiving all of the other contestants as she passed. “Hello, hello, hello, and good luck to you all – not that it'll do you any good!” Behind Autumn, Parade poked her head out of the boat and looked around. Her expression was a little inquisitive, and a lot excited – she didn't fully understand what was happening, but everyone seemed happy to be here, and she sure was, too. She ambled off the boat, taking everything in as she walked: the beach, the water, the other folks lined up before her. Was that... was that bird wearing a plastic necklace? Everything was so exotic and strange, and Parade couldn't wait to get out there and explore this crazy new place. She looked again to the lineup of faces, and picked out the one that seemed the most friendly – Ned, was it? She flashed a friendly smile and then turned her attention back to the boat, because that seemed to be the place where everyone was looking.
let me know when you want me to go. I'm ready now, or I can go whenever
Sorry for the delay on my end as well - I've done so much character building in the past couple weeks that my head just sort of fried while putting together my fourth character for this. I actually won't be available at all until mid-late Sunday at the earliest - I have a LARP event so I'll be completely without technology for a few days. Y'all can go ahead and get started without me, and I'll jump in once I get back (sorry :( ).
I'll work on getting another character done later tonight or tomorrow
