Desperation, The Survival

The waves rose up onto the shore, calm after such a violent storm. It tickled the coast gently, rising up, and the quickly escaping, leaving bits and pieces as a reminder of its arrival. The ocean, once a dark and terrorizing gray, had now calmed into a serene light blue, the type that one would typically think of when they thought of the beach. Along with the shore were pieces of driftwood and steel, no question where that came from. But besides the general junk, bits and pieces of possessions were here and there, perhaps a bit of cloth or remnants of a doll.

The beach, perhaps pretty at one point, had been trashed, not only by the garbage that had washed upon its once beautiful shores, but the various leaves and fallen trees from the island itself. Speaking of which, the island was fairly nice, perhaps it would have looked better if one had happened upon it before the storm. Mostly tropical, its jungle held a vast amount of trees, and undoubtedly, even more life within it. As one could see, the jungle had to stop at one point or another, and give way to mountains. First, grassy hills, that eventually broke into cliffs and jagged edges which signaled the other side of the island.

The Captain found himself laying there and observing what he had gotten himself into. He had, of course, fully expected not to have survived the shipwreck. After all, the chances were slim to none. But besides simply not wanting to get up, his muscles ached when he tried to move them. Feeling old, and not even in middle age yet. How pathetic! Right leg? Pins and needles, but able to move, and left was the same. Hmm, arms? Joseph struggled to force himself upright, though his arms screamed in protest. He sighed when he sat up, lazily brushed a few stray locks out of his eyes.

"Situation status... Grim." he sighed to himself, turning to look over his shoulder at the island once more. He had most likely been sitting there for hours, simply contemplating and accessing the situation, and the island, and yet still he had but little to say about it. But, he decided, enough was enough, and forced himself to stand, having much more difficulty than just sitting up. "C'mon old chap." he coaxed, patting his legs, "I know it hurts, but we've got stuff to do." And with that, he heaved himself upward, stumbling before catching himself again.

And thus began the start of his search, not only for his crew, but passengers as well. "Hello? Is anyone there?" he shouted until his voice grew hoarse, "If you can hear me, just shout!" He desperately hoped he wasn't the only one to wash ashore and survive. How befitting, the one captain who didn't go down with his ship. What a shame. It felt like hours that he walked the beach, along the line where jungle met sand. Perhaps there was someone.... someone who indeed was on this island with him.

Felicia nodded as he spoke and stepped closer to take her tea from the tray. She sipped at it lightly first, tasting it before setting the cup back down. Chai. Not her favorite, but it wasn't terrible either. "Ah, well, thank you for bringing it up to me anyhow. Please send them my regards." she replied with a small wave. She sat in the nearest chair, smoothing out her skirts delicately before reaching for the tea once again. "Actually," she spoke suddenly, "Before I dismiss you, have a seat. I'd like to have some company, if they don't need you right away. Help yourself to a biscuit, I'd just like to talk for a while, perhaps. It gets a tad, er, boring talking to the same people after a while. So, in the end, it's refreshing to see a new face."

Alrighty, character development is always good.

Ah, sorry, I have to go for now, but I posted before I left!

Felicia woke up as per usual that day, about when the sun fully appeared on the horizon. Not sunrise, but an hour or so afterwards. She sat for a while, sitting under the comforters of the large bed and staring out the window for quite some time. With a delicate yawn, she reached over and rang the small bell on her nightstand, swinging her feet to the side of her bed to finally rise. Immediately, two of her personal slaves entered, curtsying quickly to her before preparing her for the day. First, of course, the typical underclothes and whatnot before the actual dress, casual, since there would be no visitors today, only perhaps her tutor. This was only the beginning of the long process of the beginning of the day. Make-up, as well as hair was done as quickly as possible, but without any mistakes, least they be punished.

Felicia couldn't help but cringe. Punish was such a disgusting word, she didn't really like the sound of it. Or the action either. Perhaps punishment may be necessary, but it didn't make it all the much easier. She let out a small sigh, but luckily she hadn't been forced to do anything like that yet. Father usually took care of such things. "You're done, m'lady," a light voice called not too soon afterwords, "You look gorgeous."

"Thank you, Deloris, Lyra." She nodded her thanks to the two as she stood, and soon excused them. Ah, it's time for tea, isn't it? she remembered as she entered the room adjacent to her own. Hopefully it would still be warm, cold tea was dreadfully terrible. Felicia pushed open the door, and paused when she entered. Oh, that was right, they had just bought a new slave! Silly of her not to remember. "Hello there," she greeted softly, hoping not to suddenly startle him as she moved into the room, "James, correct? Thank you for bringing my tea this morning. What is it today? Green?"

Alright! Haha, I'm totally pumped, I haven't started a new RP in a while!

So, she catches James fighting back right, and that's why she punishes him?

Just Some RP Ideas

Actually, I think we have enough people, so I think we can probably start sometime soon!

I'll probably make the first post in a little while, but I'm not exactly sure what I want to say yet, but I'll try to have it up as soon as I can!

Desperation, The Survival

All accepted!

And yes, you can have two if you want.

Desperation, The Survival

That's perfectly fine with me!
