[ Twilight fades into the darkness of evening, and a whole gaggle of trolls are up on the island to camp out for one very big reason.

One big, angry, honking reason.

But general terror of the Grand Highblood aside, they're still fairly functional in-so-much as trolls ever are. And that's where the shenanigans come in. ]

ARADIA

[p2iioniicii2t]

[ With the Signless finally awake and functional, the Helmsman is finally able to think a bit more clearly. First things first, he sent off a message to Sola to let him know what had happened. And next is the fact that Aradia had apparently yet to join them on the island.

His descendant's moirail was going to be the death of him, which is why he sends a text out to her next: ]

You need two fiind your way up two the iisland.
Do not be 2o foolii2h a2 the la2t tiime that troll arriived.

Dang it dad. D:

[0_0]

[Of course, she knew this was going to come eventually. If not Psii, one of the other trolls would have sent her something.]

i know i do
im just making sure that no one else is left
ive been keeping myself out of his business
i might have gotten a little bit cocky with him in his last entry but believe me
it wont be a repeat of the last time
i promise

open to anyone who wants to bug him

[stayb100ponyboy]

[At Darkleer's insistence, Equius is up on the island, and he's pulled guard duty with RoboEquius. Honestly, that's fine with him; he'd rather be away from the camp anyway, trooping around the jungle in a perimeter, keeping everyone safe.]

[Besides, it's far too tempting to get into fights with everyone in the campground.]

wow sure is text

[aim_exorable]

[Hey, Equius! Looks like your SFC is pinging with a private message!]

D --> How are you faring?

Sure is.

[rebull]

d1D YOU BR1NG YOUR CHOCOBOS W1TH YOU?

[bestestfurrend]

[But of course Nepeta can't let him go off to guard duty on his own, not the whole time. There's a rustling in a tree above him and a very deliberate giggle to let him know it's her up there, before she drops down, aiming to land on his back.]

[ex_fintastic398]

[ You can tromp around, but you can't hide from fishy princesses!

Truthfully, Feferi needs a little time alone herself. Naturally, that means she has to come across the path of the only other troll out there. ]

Equius. Hello!

open to anyone

[ex_fintastic398]

[ Feferi isn't very keen on being up on the island, but she did say she would come up when she was satisfied that she wouldn't find Sollux, and so she's going to make good on her word.

Moreover, she needs to find someone, anyone-- everyone, and warn them. ]

hOW ARE YOU FA1R1NG,
fEFER1?
aRE YOU ST1LL 1N THE BUBBLE?

[unconchonable]

[That... That sure if Feferi. He's still not feeling the best with the last week or two behind him, but as much as he knows he'll probably regret this to some extent, he really just wants to talk with Feferi. Even if it's going to end in her yelling at him, because, well he knows he at the VERY least owes her the chance to give him a piece of her mind. It just sucks, things seemed to be going well, or rather, well enough, he wanted to make it up to her, still does, but how do you honestly do that? How do you make up the fact you are someone's murderer? is it honestly possible? These are all things that Eridan's currently worrying about as he makes his way over, his footsteps light, not wanting to draw too much attention to himself in case he gets cold flippers and decides to hightail it outta there.]

[He doesn't though. He makes it all the way over, stopping a few feet from her, his expression a mixture of awkwardness and a shitty attempt to keep his usual aloof expression. It isn't working well.]

Fef, I'm glad you made it to the island. I didn't see ya here for a bit, got a little worried...

[He sounds lame, he feels lame, wow is he beating around the bush here. He's hasn't felt this awkward since he confessed his flushed feelings for her.]

[bestestfurrend]

Fefurry, Fefurry, hi! I'm glad you've come up finally! I was worried!

[And that's a kitty troll running over to greet her friend with a hug now.]

OPEN

[p2iioniicii2t]

[ The Helmsman has finally managed to stray from the camp, if only a little bit. He's not exactly the most subtle of trolls, particularly late at night, but he's sitting in the sand at the beach and gently shifting it around with his psionics. There's no particular rhyme or reason to it, aside from the fact that he's creating an increasingly intricate design that runs all along the shoreline.

We all have to have hobbies, right? ]

[aim_exorable]

[Hey Helmsman, remember that promise Darkleer made to you?]

D --> Your bees seem to be in a particularly good mood today

[Yet another private message showing he's holding true to it.]

[withoutasign]

[If he were feeling better, Signless would take note of the designs in the sand, and remember how Psii used to do that around their campsites, making beautiful, elegant patterns that he'd wipe away when they left. But he's too worried and upset right now, and he practically tackles his friend, flinging his arms around him and holding him as tight as he can without causing injury.]

How long, Psii? How long has she been here?

[bestestfurrend]

[That's quite right, and Nepeta has also been out indulging in her old hobby of stalking prey, just to keep her skills honed. She's already hunted down enough meat for everyone, so following small creatures through the jungle without letting them know she was there had been good enough practice for her for now.

But after a while she feels like being social, and knows that quite a few of her friends enjoy the beach. That's why she's walking quietly across the sand now, heading straight for the friend she hadn't thought would be there, but who she's very glad to see nevertheless.]

Mister Psii, Mister Psii!

[420]

[Gamzee doesn't bother being quiet as he comes up behind him, hands in his pockets. He had come here to just watch the ocean for a bit, but hey, finding a pal here is awesome too.]

Whatcha doin'?

I had this tag ALL THE WAY DONE but i didnt submit it. im good.

[0_0]

[Thankfully there are some that really do appreciate others hobbies. With her role, Aradia has gained a bit of stealth to observe without being caught most of the time. Tonight, she was looking to see what was going on about the island. Everything seemed pretty peaceful, especially during this hour. However, there was one thing in particular that caught her eyes.

She first caught eye of the design in the sand, descending ever so much to see who was responsible for such creation. It was... fairly obvious, and she was really surprised! As much as she wished to interrupt him, he wanted to see what else he was going to do with the designs first, then speak to him. Aradia u creep.

She stayed in the air, silently observing the Helmsman's art. The only way that she was to be known was the fairy dust floating down behind her and the sound of her wings.]

[stayb100ponyboy]

[Guard duty is over for right now, and Equius is making his way to the beach for a quick dip in the ocean. He's been practicing his swimming, even without Feferi working with him, and he's getting better. He still doesn't like being in water over his head, but he can STRONG dog paddle around in the shallows with the best of them.]

[He stops, though, when he sees that glow of psionics. The Helmsman. Should he... go over and talk to him? Will he freak him out if he does? Frozen by indecision, he stands a few yards away, sweating nervously.]

open

[withoutasign]

[The morning after waking up finds Signless in the center of the campground, leaning over an open fire and cooking breakfast for anyone who wants it. Eggs and bacon, anyone?]

[ex_fintastic398]

[ Perfect! Mister Signless, have a relatively frantic Feferi all up next to you. ]

You're here! I'm glad you're here. You said I could talk to you, if I ever needed to, right?

A little bit later | open to all

[0_0]

[She really wasn't lying that she was going to come up sooner or later!

She just... had the Summoner to thank for her coming up earlier than she wanted to. Meaning he found her, she attempted to fight back to get away, and she ultimately failed. Haha.

So, yes, Aradia was tired... grumpy... and a little bit sore. She had made it to the edge of camp before she decided to rest a moment against a tree.]

[bestestfurrend]

[Are those leaves rustling up the tree where Aradia's leaning? They sure are!]

Open!

[bestestfurrend]

[Nepeta has been making the best of a bad situation - perhaps too much out of it, as she's been a little bit too pleased at being able to hunt down food for her friends, and scout out lots of potential hiding places around the island, and generally pounce on people unawares.

For a troll she's always been amazingly sociable, so now that she's done with hunting and scouting for the day she's sneaking around trying to find people to chat with or generally climb all over.]

Tavros

[bestestfurrend]

[It's been a busy and rather exhausting day for a kitty troll. She always likes keeping herself occupied, and then with the shock and added worry of finding out who else was now in Vatheon with them she hadn't really found any time to relax properly.

But if Pounce had taught her anything it was to get her sleep while she could, to be fresh and strong when it would be needed. It didn't look like any attacks would be happening for now, and so she finds a cosy corner of a cave near their campsite to start sleepily dragging together a pile, some leaves and a fur or two, with her Pounce plushie on the very top of it. Now she just needs one of her favourite snuggle buddies to join her. She assumed Equius would be with Gamzee or else still prowling the edges of the camp, so she sniffs the air until she picks up the other very familiar scent she wants. There he is.]

[toreadorkabull]

-=Tavros is justifiably nervous. And worried. Two things he's very good at being. It's obvious in the way his brows are furrowed and his lips are set in a frown. He's been pacing around and trying his best to come up with some sort of helpful idea.

At least he managed to get Nepeta up here. If she hadn't left he'd probably still be down there with her, trying to keep her safe in what ever way he could. Unfortunately, thinking about going up against the The Condesce or Grand High Blood only ended up in more death. Permanent or not, that wasn't something he wanted to go through again=-

OPEN

[420]

[Sometimes a motherfucker gotta find his chill with his buddies, and sometimes he's gotta clear his head on his own for a little while. And there is a lot to clear; everything what happened with Karkat, Eridan's anger, the Grand Highblood and now and Empress too? Man, fuck this, time to skip stones.

Gamzee has abandoned his sneakers above the water line, rolled up his pants and he's standing shin deep in the cool ocean water, skipping pebbles and shells across the surface of the water. Of course, with the waves rolling in they don't exactly skip much, but it is cool.

Come bother him.]

[0_0]

[Things have been incredibly stupid and awkward between the two of them, and Aradia doesn't like it. She knew that she needed to figure out a time to actually apologize to him, but... the situations weren't making it easy for her to find that time. She knew that it was really now or never, and a bit after being forced to the island she sought him out.

Whenever she does find him, Aradia carefully makes her way as close as she can without actually coming into the water. She takes a seat next to his sneakers, biting her bottom lip. OKAY DUDE. She's gotta do this.]

I need to talk to you.

open as fuq - also i'm an idiot WHOOPS

[f8tal]

[So there's a campfire over there? Vriska isn't anywhere near it because that would mean interacting with people.

At least she's dry now. Somewhat. Her hair still looks like a hot mess now that it's starting to frizz.]

derp

[toreadorkabull]

-=and there is a Tavros milling about on his robot legs, moving a lot better than she'd remember him being. Even has a tiny robot Tinkerbull floating around him. It will probably please her to notice that he looks rather paranoid, if not a bit grumpy=-
