“... So this is all just-- this is so much, really. I don’t-- I don’t know what could be actually helpful at this point. And I just feel--” Madi shut her eyes for a moment, let out a long sigh. “I feel so lonely. I don’t normally have many people I let close, but this-- this is too much and I don’t know--” She shook her head. “I don’t know how I can keep going with this little alcohol and nobody I could rely on.”

(It was an absolutely wrong perception, she had people to rely on, she was just actively working on pushing them away or refusing to listen to them, even if to Madi it didn’t feel like it.)

Ever since the plane crashed, more and more new people showed up on the beach from different places, and Tamyra was used to it at this point. It was surprising, however, when she started seeing a face who has been around for a long while now, and yet Tamyra could probably count on one hand the amount of time she’s seen Amelia out on the beach before recently.

In the last couple of days it especially increased, and when she’s passed the woman for the third time that day working on... something with woods, Tamyra wasn’t exactly sure what the goal was, she couldn’t help but stop.

“Decided to move your base out here with the rest of us?” she asked as a way of greeting, holding her hand up above her eyes to keep some shadow from the sun.

“There is a line a mile long going into the ladies room,” Aarav told her, starting a conversation smack-dab in the middle. He handed the beer to her, then shook his head. “ ‘s that because you guys always have to go in pairs for some reason? Or do you go in pairs because the line is so boring?”

You scared the hell out of me, kiddo. 

Guess what I’ve got? [ he puts several folders on her desk ] I mean, it’s work, but I officially work down the hall from you. Weird, right?

Oh, no, I’m not busy. Just trying a new technique for wand cores. I get bored sometimes, like to do something different.
