How so? Whether you get shot down in the street because you're gay or trans isn't a matter of opinion, it's a fact. It will be a part of life if Trump wins. He wants to bring back conversion therapy. Do you know what that is?))

'You can't murder me, Klan member, that's illegal!' You see what's wrong with that sentence. Hillary would crack down on LGBT hate, Trump supports it.)

((Well thankfully it's not legal but... people can still do it. and people can still get away with it, which is likely if the victim is part of a marginalized group. And it's not just that, it's also policies towards those who are born female, or those who are Muslim))

(I'm just...terrified. i didn't really care for either options, in my opinion; no hate or anything. i'm not really fond of politics myself)
Mikel gave her a weak smile, "Thanks. That helps." He tried to move his aching leg, but bit back a groan at the pain it was started to feel. And, it was becoming VERY restless, "Curse my predicament... I'd probably be able to help a lot more if I wasn't sitting around like a lame lamb..." He sighed, scratching his head with his pencil, "I can be of some help, I guess, and track those that are coming in, if you want?"
Oakley shook her head, "I don't...think so. Though, my head does...hurt, a bit. I'm not really that nauseous, though. Just lightly light-headed. Kinda dizzy." She yawned, the sharp pain in her forehead making her eyes water, making her yawn too, "It's just the bruises that really hurt right now...but that's to be expected." She raised up her head to show the one under her jaw. It was a dark purple, already starting to turn yellow in color, but the size of a baseball. It went over her chin and down to just above her throat. "Yeah, that stings...along with the one on top of my head, heh."

((eeeeey i don't like politics too! but... this election is really going to impact people, so i've been reading up it's making me hate politics even more. As Ari would say, what is this mindless struggle for power that claims to lie in the hands of the people, those people who are so easily influenced and intimidated and manipulated (then i say, people can't be that easily manipulated, and he's like, i have lost all hope for humanity so) edit: also everyone who is a little uncomfortable about the political stuff that popped up sorry >.< it's pretty important but i'd get it if someone's awkwardly like wut))
Lindy's eyebrows came together in concern. "That does not look good," she murmured. She ran through what she knew in case these were symptoms of something bigger, but she couldn't piece it together. And she wasn't sure what to do for Oakley. "I'm just going to ask you a few questions to check your cognitive state, but it doesn't seem like you have a concussion, luckily. Or a noticeable one, at least. Either way, you should probably rest and keep me updated if you feel any worse. Can you recite 2-5-7 to me backwards?"

{Oh okay}
Belle used her hand to keep him from moving his leg more than he already was, "No, you need to rest. I didn't mean right now." Belle gave him an equally weak smile. "It's okay, I'm not doing so hot myself unless it's temperature wise." Belle chuckled, almost kneeling down but her foot kept her from doing so. It felt like fire shot up her leg and caused her to sit down like how she was. "Stupid foot. I might as well cut it off and make and make a peg leg." Belle joked, she wouldn't do that, but it doesn't hurt to joke. They needed something to lighten the mood, despite the circumstances.

( my family is for someone i didn't vote for, and we discuss it a lot. me and my sister are like, completely against this whole election, i swear xD )
Oakley nodded, furrowing her brows in concentration, "7-5-2." She laughed softly, "I'm surprised i got that right. Usually, even without a head wound, I could flub that entirely." Though, when she laughed, it made her light headed again, and she stopped, "Maybe it's just my nerves messing with me. The light headed feeling, anyway." She did have the bruise on the back of her head, or whatever it was that hurt. She didn't think she had a concussion, but at least a semi-bad head wound. At least, it hadn't bleed. Well, even if it had, Oakley didn't notice.

( though, i'm not gonna judge anyone on who they vote for. i mean, it's in everyone's opinion who they want, so... yeah. like i said, not one for politics. )
Mikel made a sound that resembled a giggle, though there was a cough at the end, "Heh, yeah. You could be a pirate." He grinned mischievously, "A pirate leader for an island of misfits. Sounds like a great game idea, huh? Should write it down." He hummed in content, the warmth of the shift in mood sending him into a calmer state. At least, calmer than before, anyway. His mind was still racing with possibilities. But he wasn't as scared, anymore. He shifted so he was leaning against his backpack, the soft fabric like a pillow. "I'm probably gonna rest for a little bit. Then, hopefully I feel better when I wake up, and I'll help ya out."

Lindy nodded. "Okay. I probably won't have to do the eye test thing, then. If there was a cold pack I'd offer it to you, but I didn't see any." She frowned, then dug through the supplies. "At least, I didn't see any..."

"I suppose all of us are odd." A wide grin formed across Belle's lips, "But yes, you should get some rest. Just let me or Lindy know if you need help." Belle told him before tousling his hair teasingly since he was laying down. She hauled herself up, but that was hard to do when you pretty much had only one working foot. The crutch helped with that. Belle limped over to the top of the sand dune where she could look at the surroundings.

((hi everyone i um i didn't think i'd cry when i saw the election results but i'm so scared for everyone who's not part of the majority, for everyone who's been mocked or hated by trump, for everyone trump's policies will hurt so, if it's ok, i'd love to roleplay to keep my mind off of it. i think Ari and Shafer were carrying Thana up the hill. also mycle's free to talk to anyone who's on. lindy's probably checking larry now))

((coolz! belle's probs going ot have to approach mycle, he's not one to start a conversation ^.^''))
Mycle looked over at Lindy, wanting to ask if he could help somehow, but never quite finding the right moment to jump in. So he sort of hung back, sitting on the ground uselessly. He drew patterns in the sand to relieve his boredom, and maybe a little of his anxiety. They were still on an island, he didn't have his crutches, and so many people were hurt. The cut on his leg wasn't that big, but it still stung. He hoped they would be able to head out and search for water soon.

Belle was using this time as a good oppritunity to know the people here. Everyone needed some sort of comfort, but Belle wasn't going to admit she needed it too. She noticed Mycle drawing in the sand, he looked bored. But bored is an emotion they, in her opinion, should not be feeling. It should be slightly panicked or determined even, determine to survive. She went over to him regardless, maybe he was just trying to get his mind off of things. "Howdy." She greeted him before sitting down beside him.

Mycle jumped a little and looked at Belle, startled. "Oh, h-hi," he stammered. He felt the strangest feeling that he had been caught doing nothing - which was pretty much what he was doing, but he felt like he should be doing something. He quickly pulled his hand into his lap, feeling guilty for not being proactive. Though, he thought bitterly, what use could he even be? He hugged his abdomen. "Um, is there something you wanted me to do?" he asked hopefully.

Ari pressed a hand between her shoulder blades to support her as he held on to her arm, helping her sit up. "You got this. Don't force yourself." He watched her face, noticing her lack of focus. "Sorry, we don't have water to drink," he said, the thought causing worry to stir in him. Oh yeah. They don't have water. Just the thought of water was making him thirsty. Great. He hoped someone up the hill had a water bottle or something. "We'll find some later," he said, half reassuring himself. He looked over Thana - she probably can't stand in this state. "Shafer, can you grab her legs?" Ari said. She was pretty tall, so it was going to have to be both of them. "Hold on," he told her. He nodded to Kieran. "You can start heading up if you want, or, if you're feeling up to it, you can spot us, making sure if one of us slips you'll be there to help." ((if ur looking for my last post ^^^))

"I would ask you to do something, but I'm not exactly the leader here. Plus, before we sort out jobs and everything, it would be nice to have all y'all together to talk about it." Belle told him, not looking at him, she just stared out to the water that she woke up next to. It felt like she had traveled far since then but in reality, she wasn't that far away. It would be the ocean and plane parts that Belle knew would never leave her memory. She was close to death. Here and when the plane first crashed.

Kieran nodded. "I can definitely spot." He said, mulling over the issues in his head. Water, possible protection, injuries. The fog in his head cleared the more he thought. It was good to have a focus. As a scientist and inventor type, Kieran was certain hr could help create something to get them all some clean water. It'd take some time, of course and he'd probably need help but it could be done. "And to address water, I have a few ideas if anyone wants to help me out once we get together." The people around seemed nice enough. No one appeared to blatantly have malicious intent. He ran his slender fingers through his hair, scoffing a bit at the entire situation. He'd scrutinize them later, of course. Kieran was fascinated by human behavior. Over the years he'd watched and been around enough people to see truths through how people spoke and their body language.

"Oh." His stomach twisted as he looked around; so many people were hurt. And how many more would be coming? What were they going to do about water and food? If he thought about it too hard, his anxiety was almost paralyzing. He looked over at Lindy, who was gathering up the supplies and telling Oakley to rest and let her know if she felt any worse. Lindy was then walking towards them. "Hey," she said. "How are you two feeling?" "Like I should he doing something," Mycle murmured, looking at his hands. Lindy frowned at him, then her eyes widened. "Mycle - you're all red!" "Ah - sunburn," Mycle said in embarrassment, placing a hand over his face. "And you're hurt -" Lindy knelt down, picking through the bandaids in the supplies. "It's not that bad," Mycle said, flushing. "I'm just worried about everyone else." Lindy's face softened. "Well," she said. "I haven't gotten around to everyone yet. Mason needs his foot wrapped - you remember how to do that?" "Oh, yeah." "Here, this roll's almost done, should be enough. Why don't you help everyone who still needs bandaging? Just remember, clean the wound first, then bandage it. Cuts, bandaids, sprained or broken stuff, wrap or sling. Cool?" "Yeah, I know the basics." "That should be good for now." She turned to Belle. "Okay, I'm going to need your help. A lot of people can't walk all that well, so we need to gather everyone who can to start on the rock message. I know not everyone's here, but we should probably start to save time. I think Alessandra and Chul are okay, and Ari and Shafer when they get back. If you could organize that -" She then straightened as if struck by a thought. "I haven't even seen Riandylan come back yet - did either of you see them?"
"Thanks," Ari said to Kieran. "The water thing sounds great too - we'll be needing that. I can probably help." He nodded to Shafer as he tucked his arms under Thana's. "On three - one, two, lift!" They lifted Thana in the air and began making their way back to the main group. Ari lost his footing once, but they managed to get up there in one piece. "We have returned!" He declared loudly to the rest of the group.
((oh yeah hopefully it didn't seem like i ignored belle's wanting to wait to talk to everyone - just thought lindy coming in would create some conflict)
