stranded on a not-quite-deserted-island
The Island Resort Meme
You and (one other person) are stranded on an island, but it's this isn't another Robinson Crusoe or Castaway thing. There is a furnished resort on it, with just about any amenity you can think of. A spacious villa awaits you among the lush flora, as luxurious (or as spartan) as you'd like. Maybe there's a hot tub. Or a swimming pool. Or both. It could be equipped with jet skis, surfboards, scuba gear, and everything else you need for an unforgettable tropical vacation. The wildlife might be so untouched, you wake up to some of the fauna sharing your bed.
How did you get here? Booked a vacation and surprise surprise, someone had the same idea? Perhaps you woke up one day on the beach with no memory of how you arrived (sound familiar?). Maybe this is all part of some diabolical plan to isolate you from the rest of the world so you can't fulfill whatever mission you set to do. Whatever it is, you're stuck here for now. For how long? You decide.
So, what are you going to do now?
- Comment with your character and preferences. Writing your own top level is highly encouraged! Describe the kind of tropical paradise you want your character to be stuck in and any and all circumstances leading up to it.
- Reply to others! Come up with a scenario if their top level is blank.
- ???
- Profit. Play with the setting as much as you'd like.

Frisk | Undertale | OTA
There are trails cut through it, lined with flora and ancient-looking stone figures. Frisk has absolutely no idea where they lead, except for away from the beach and the villas. That just makes it more exciting, though, doesn't it?
Syndra | League of Legends | OTA
She had a quick poke around, of course. There was a gorgeous villa, full stocked, lots of white beaches and inviting light jungle to explore when she felt like it. But what she felt like right now was sunbathing, and that was what she was doing, stretched out poolside on a deckchair, wearing nothing but a swimsuit. Also dozing off slightly, and completely oblivious to the fact someone else might arrive.
[[ooc: The new arrival can be a stranger or someone she knows (just give me a tip if you're going for assumed CR), open to everything from gen upwards. She can be sunbathing topless if you want your muse to catch her like that.]]

That was until he wandered into the pool area and found another person at last. He quickly approached them.
no subject
Sleeping. Syndra was snoring lightly, one arm across her face to block the direct sunlight from her eyes, chest rising and falling with her slow breathing. For once, a stranger would have the choice of how to approach her.

[Now they're at the poolside, and Rock Lee is doing some stretches while wearing his green swimming trunks.]
Hmmm... Peko-san, what sort of hot-blooded challenges do you think we can we partake in here?
island mode is the game we all wanted but did not deserve
[Peko hums, reaching behind her to adjust the ties of her sword bag to make sure water won't penetrate it. Not that pool water would cause irreparable damage to her shinai for as short a time as this, but no reason to take chances. Her black bikini is comfortable and easy to move in, and that's all that matters.]
I suppose we could race, or see who can hold their breath the longest. Something like cracking watermelons is more suited to the beach, I think.
alas...

maybe we could smush both memes into one.
She carried her bags up the winding walk way to the villa, less than a hundred paces from the beautiful white sand beach. All around her, birds sang in the trees and a warm breeze stirred the wisps of hair at the back of her neck. She dropped her bags inside the door and gazed around in wonder at the beautiful spacious space within.
Until her eyes fixed on the single crystal glass of whiskey and the bottle, already opened beside it, on the bar.
She frowned. "Hello?"
MAYBE. We shall see what happens~ (I'm totally gonna mess around with the timeline omg.)
No, more than that - he'd earned it. Aliens in New York was more than excuse enough for a well-timed getaway and the near death experience meant that a place like this, so far removed from anyone who might try and get him to sign pictures or ask questions about what it had been like was very well deserved indeed. He'd saved Manhattan. Promoted from Superhero to-- Superhero.
He'd only been here a few hours, and already he'd hit the hard stuff. Away from it all he might have been, but there was no escape from his own thoughts and lately it seemed that every time he closed his eyes he was right back there in the void of space.
Karen breaks him from his nightmare and he twists on the sun lounger he'd parked up by the pool near the bar, offering her an award winning grin as soon as he clocks her.
"Hey, just in time. Think I could get a sandwich?"

Hajime Hinata | (Super) Dangan Ronpa 2 | ota
shiptrap since beach
[ There's something that Rei wants to do, but she's rather awkward about it, even if she doesn't have to be, wearing a string bikini that pretty much shows a good amount of her skin. Her cheeks light up like fireworks as her gaze shifts awkwardly away from him; while it's true that he's accepted her it's still a little... ]
H-Hajime, can I ask you a favor? [ Well, the reason why she's nervous about showing her body off like this is because of how small she is. Not only just in height, but in chest, too. ]
no subject
Instead he just nods, moving a little closer. He's just wearing some ordinary blue patterned swimtrunks, nothing to write home about.]
Yeah, of course. What is it?

Miles Edgeworth | Ace Attorney
The resort is pretty snazzy, at least. Well-stocked pantry and refrigerator, fluffy bouncy beds, large swimming pool and hot tub, deck chairs and giant umbrellas on the beach...even cable TV and reading materials.
So congratulations. It's you, Edgeworth, and this luxurious island.]
ARE YOU READY?
...the door? Pssh. Mr. Edgeworth on vacation deserves a grand entrance. In the window she goes. Perfect landing! Now... just gotta find where Edgeworth is hiding.]
I thought you'd still be here. [JEEZ. It's almost ten- you should have been having fun for hours now. Let her show you how vacation is really done.] Fun isn't going to wait for you, you know!
Edgeworth isn't but I SURE AM
Ack! K-Kay?! How...h-how did you get here?!
[WHO TOLD HER AND WHO BROUGHT HER HERE. WHO. Edgeworth quickly drops down to pick up his book.]
Hwoarang | Tekken 6 | M/F
This would be well and fine for him except he was supposed to be in route to the latest tournament when he fell asleep on the plane. Was there a storm or something?
Looking around, Hwoarang saw no plane wreckage or any indication of such. There was no way such a thing would be missed on the sizeable plane he had boarded!
Unfortunately, he couldn't find his cell phone either and even if he could, he figured it most likely wouldn't work anyway in this sort of situation.
He was truly and right stuck, but...at least he was stuck in a nice looking place. Hopefully he could find someone who could tell him where he was at least as he made his way along the beach towards the resort.

He thought he heard a noise in the water as he looked out over the waters and he thought he saw movement. He rubbed his eyes. Ugh...maybe he was seeing things and continued into the resort area.

sorry....was in the process of eating dinner and doing laundry...ugh.

Ugh, I still don't want to do my laundry. I don't want to be an adult anymore. LOL

closed starter
Tim maintains that she was doing fine, honestly, not nearly terrible enough to be basically shoved on a plan and ordered to have fun, but apparently she did really need that sleep, at least, because it takes her long enough to wake up on their first morning. Getting an actual full night's sleep after chronic sleep deprivation does that to you sometimes.
"So what do you think the odds are that something's going to attack and we'll end up with a working vacation?" She's great at light morning conversation, really.

"More likely that you'll get ambushed by a dozen people wanted to tell you their great idea for...whatever," he said. "We could always call Kon to reprise his role as the Hero of Hawaii. Bonus points if he does his hair."

A private resort sprawls the bulk of the island, which is small enough to walk around in a day, and the fact that it's abandoned after going bankrupt under a year ago doesn't hurt, either.
She's already laid out on the stretch of beach that gives him enough room to land, half-asleep in the bikini he chose for her. She'd expected to be woken up by the roar of the jet as it landed, but in stealth mode it barely makes a sound as it touches down.
