Thomas stood next to the table with the ‘noms’ on it, and he covered his mouth to keep from gagging. Everything there looked like something they would offer on Fear Factor. “This is hands down the worst challenge they’ve given us. Who in their right mind is going to say ‘that truth - or dare - is too much for me. I’d rather eat cod sperm?’” 

[riley-francis-moore]

Riley was thinking up some fun truth or dares he could offer people. He didn’t want to trick anyone into eating any of the ‘noms’ on the table nearby. “Play the game with me?” he asked, looking at the nearest person. “I promise to go easy on you. I don’t want anyone to have to eat one of those things because of me.”

“For the most part, I’ve liked doing the challenges for fun but this one... I don’t have the stomach for the ‘noms’ options. Can you give me a ‘truth’ question or something for this?” Juni asked, pulling a face as they stared at the table of various foods.

“So for my talent, I am going to read a chapter of this book in record time. Yes all of you have to watch, and if you talk I’m going to get distracted and have to start over,” Emmie said, before sitting down on a log and opening her book and reading it. She had been trying to figure out what her talent would be all week, and this seemed like the best idea. And truly, she was reading fast, as she flipped through the pages. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to do anything (after all that lip balm was NEEDED at this point), but normal talents that people showed off were not in Emmie’s repertoire. 

“Alright done,” she said a few minutes later as she closed her book, “And then since I’m just going to get the other out of the way because you know there’s that old saying that there’s a fine line between love and hate? Well, I guess that’s true and my vagina is mixing up the signals because I guess I have to say Violet and Sadhbh. But I’m just saying unless she’s craving hate sex, she’s wrong.”

Love Languages-SebTony

@antony-malinowski​

There was something that felt special about this little date. He got the chance to dress up, it would be the two of us basically away from the island and even though they had agreed on no titles,  Sebastián felt incredibly confident that this was all going in the right direction. In his head, they possessed all the titles and there was no one else that could possible take his attention. He adjusted his lapel and made his way to the meeting point he had talked to Tony about. This was about to be the best birthday present and it made him even happier knowing he had his sister’s support. When he spotted Tony, he smiled from ear to ear as he made his way toward him. “Hey, handsome. I’m here about a balloon and a date. Would you happen to know anything about that?”

“Juniper, you life saver.” Luna smiled as she added the finishing touches to her cosplay. Admittedly, it was the easiest she could think of especially considering where their current location was. It was also one people like Oliver probably expected from Luna since they’ve talked about it. Still, it proved to be a bit difficult. No red wig, no ivy, no makeup. She’d have to really sell the actually design to prove that she in fact, can make costumes out of a handful of materials. Palm leaves weren’t difficult to work with and she had spent the last couple of days getting perfectly shaped leaves for her design. While she enjoyed the running and organizing of cons, Luna loved dressing up the most. Seeing how much little girls loved seeing themselves in her made her the happiest. Secretly, she hoped she didn’t look too foolish as she approached the others decked out in her poison ivy cosplay. She cleared her throat, a proud smile pulling at her lips and flipped her hair. “Pamela Isley, here.  I am the new Eve. The mother of the men of tomorrow...” She turned slowly to show off her digs. “Aaannd this is my talent. I make cosplays back at home and I decided Poison Ivy was the easiest to show off for this challenge!”

Celeste sat around the fire with the other ship mates either huddled close for warmth or seated nearby. With the newest task thrown out there, now seemed as good a time as any to get it out of the way. Standing and instinctively dusting sand off of her butt, she cleared her throat and spoke up a little louder than normal. “So,” she said, addressing the others. “I’m gonna get my Show & Tell out of the way.”

After being unsure of what sort of talent she could show on the island and with limited resource, she opted to show her flexibility. Celeste gave a few rolls of her shoulder and then lifted both arms directly up, parallel to each other. She soon began to bend back, more and more until her body formed an arch. Once she felt confident in her balance, she walked on her hands and feet for a bit before carefully bending her knees and hefting her legs up into a handstand. She kept her legs tightly together and as straight as possible before relaxing and bending her arms, tucking into a somersault and rising back to her feet again.

When she finished, she took a small bow, cracking a small smile. “And now... the tell...”

“Okay, I know that you’re covered in tea, but it is also kind of true.”

[detkhamani]

Khamani stared at the table of various dishes, thinking out loud, “There’s a few of these I wouldn’t mind trying but since I don’t get to choose which one I’d end up eating if I ended up choosing the noms option... Unless you wanna go ahead and pick the chocolate-covered crickets, the gator tail or the durian fruit for me, I’ll go with dare.”

[baileyballs]

“Aight, so I got a couple questions I need answered, especially now that some people have like been back in the real world and shit. So like... we can always go ‘truth’ for ‘truth’ but I’m always down for a dare. So hit me with your best shot. I can take whatever you choose to dish at me.”

“So, unlike all of you, I thought it’d be fun to do my show and tell at the same time,” Raj said in front of the fire as everyone was eating dinner, three coconuts in his arms. It took him a second before he started juggling the three, focusing on them just enough that he didn’t drop them before continuing. “So first person that I’m interested in, well that would have to be one of our resident cinnamon rolls, sorry doc, not talking about you, but Juni. We get along, I think you’re cute, and I think that we’d have fun together. Then person number two, well you still owe me three dates whether you know you agreed to that or not, but Valerie. And then honorable mention to the hottest man that I have ever seen who just showed up on the beach this week, Rodrigue, because goddamn nobody is allowed to be that sexy and yet here you are.”

Out of the positive emotions of compassion, positivity, enthusiasm and initiative, which one is your biggest strength & why?

[juniwilson]

Juniper went to where the sleeping shelters were set up and, after lifting a few strategically placed palm leaves, grabbed a handful of what they had hidden. They walked carefully back to where the others were gathered and joined them. Making an announcement wasn’t exactly in their comfort zone; instead, they went around to the other ship-mates one by one. Approaching, from one hand that was cupped close to their body, Juniper tugged free a piece of braided twine and held it out to the first person she’d walked up to. “So for my talent... I managed to get some twine from the producers and made these. They’re friendship bracelets. I know finding love is a key component to this show but... a good loving relationship starts with a friendship, right?”

“Okay, got to admit. Solid Survivor plan to vote out the most popular person, it makes perfect sense. Plus no offense dude, you don’t need another million dollars. So when it comes to strategy, I think that Khamani might actually be the one to think this way.”
