It seemed the woman was alright, albeit shaken. One of the teenagers went to check on the woman, and began to sign to her. Well, shit. Kali felt awful—she had no idea the woman had been deaf. Here she had been, all up in her face in worry without the woman being able to understand a single word Kali said. A part of Kali wished she had paid attention in school, barely remembering how to sign her own name from the short ASL course they had one day. Perhaps then she'd be able to apologize, and even on the chance she never saw the woman again, it'd at least be good to know later on if Kali ever ran into anyone else who had been deaf.

As the awkwardness died down, however, the scene suddenly broke into full-on panic. Another one of her neighbors, a teenager like the other two, had come seemingly out of nowhere, and tackled one of the kids to the ground. Staring in disbelief, the events at the restaurant replayed in Kali's thoughts as Isaac jumped to the teenager's aid in response, proceeding to wrestle the other off him. 

People were going to get hurt—one of them very much already was by the wound on his shoulder. But what were they supposed to do? Restrain him? Good luck with that! It took two of her co-workers just to lock up the co-worker that attacked Jeff, and even then they had a giant freezer to lock him up in! Were they supposed to hogtie the teenager with their belts or something?

Biting her lip, Kali soon found her questions answered by the arrival of an ambulance. Unfortunately for her, however, they seemed just as lost as she had been. It was good to know that her tax dollars were being put to work in hiring "quality candidates" for the emergency services, Kali sarcastically thought as the man froze up before them.

"Snap out of it!" Kali yelled, turning to face the wide-eyed paramedic, "You're the professional here; do something!"

@Theyra Despite the overlap with my character, you can consider yourself approved.

@Cyrania An accountant is an interesting choice for this style of RP. Not many people would pick that for a character. The sehnsucht route works with being an outsider as well. That being said, I was more intending for this roleplay to focus on those native to the island, so (and for anyone else reading this, especially newcomers), I'm drawing the line at newcomers/outsiders from this point onward.

Not sure if you tried to emulate the coding everyone else was using, though. Seems a bit rough, IMO.

@mickilennial If you think you can handle a second character, feel free to post Luna in the CS tab.

@Mistress Dizzy I would prefer that things are "dressed up" to keep in line with the other posts, but I know some people are turned away by graphics and aesthetic so it isn't exactly mandatory. Thankfully, we have some resident "graphic artists" (*cough* Lemons and Yankee *cough*) that can help out with things.

At most a week, if possible. This roleplay is centered around a small, tight-knit community so I don't want things to come to a standstill if someone takes too long to post. Granted, this depends on the storyline/plot points in the current scene. Some might move faster than others and vice versa. But the general line of "hey, I need a post" is about once a week or so. Doesn't have to be long, but I'd need some kind of substance.

There really wasn't a template for the profile, but since everyone just copied Micki's, I'd just use that if you want.
