We also have to figure out how and when to "discover" Derek, since he's now at the golf course too. This place is popular!

I was thinking that maybe someone hits a golf ball too hard so that it ends up in the jungle where Derek is. He's like at the end of the jungle location, very close to them, so that could work I guess. I'm open for other ideas though. Derek might not just go over lol.

And I'm fine with that, just had questions about the timing. For all Derek knows, these are more of the people who kidnapped his fellow survivors so he'd be hesitant to rush out and say hi.
So how would Derek's news of other 815 survivors on the island affect our group? I think Jack would be compelled to go find and help them after hearing that they were low on water, food, medicine, everything. Someone would have to convince him to stay and take care of the folks right there. Since Ana-Lucia has them on the move, there wouldn't be anything to find at their beach camp.

Well, I know some of Tony’s secret plot ideas for Derek and I don’t wanna spoil anything, but to save everyone from spending a bunch of time working that out, let’s just say that particular issue won’t arise. 😉
I think you guys can totally start with the scene and not have to worry about hashing something out for a good while.

Okay, cool. That thought just popped in my head last night and I was like, "Hmm, how would my characters react to that news?" Nevermind then.

Hey Losties! I just realized that we're coming up to a time jump in the show, so thought we'd discuss if we'll be ready for one soon here as well or if you guys want to continue the day either by letting it flor or jumping to evening. Right now, we're on Day 13.We do have some great scenes still going that will take us awhile to finish (the usual) but after those are done, I think we can jump. What do you guys think? After this golf scene, the show jumps from Day 13 to Day 15. I've copied and pasted the main day discussions that I put together forever ago. If you go back to Reply #391 of Potential Plots, we'd started talking time jumps. I quoted a couple posts after also: I'm good with skipping to the big stuff. I've got an idea for census day. During the kidnapping, I think Bennett and Ethan will get into a disagreement of whether to hang Charlie or not (Bennett didn't intend for anyone to get killed in all of this) so maybe Ethan accuses Bennett of treason and knocks Bennett out and when Jack and Kate find and save Charlie, they find Bennett passed out as well. But by that time, the secret has been revealed that Bennett is not from the plane. So they take him back to the camp but as a prisoner. And I know eventually we talked about a possibility of Bennett kidnapping little Sarah, so if Lee-o wanted that for her character, maybe that happens one night during a great escape back to Othersville. What do you guys think? That all totally works for me! Ben told Bennett to keep an eye on Sarah, right? Report about her, watch for special things. Since I'm usually watching over her, we could start with me and Bennett chatting. Gabe could end up joining in since he's got suspicions about Bennett he wants to explore. I was thinking maybe Sarah's working on a sandcastle and I'm sitting in the shade of that tree by the shore, close to Sarah, needing a little break from the sun and checking out that book I'm totally fascinated with. I like that Bennett idea! Seeing Bennett also knocked out would give the impression that even though he wasn't on the plane, he'd been against what Ethan had done and had apparently tried to stop him. So some would argue in his defense. I'm sure I'd give him the benefit of the doubt if he voices he tried to stop Ethan. The Sarah kidnapping could come a bit later. Day or two? Next time jump? Whenever it feels right. Like maybe Bennett wanting to get back in Ben's good graces because he wants to return to Othersville and his family, so he decides to return with Sarah as his ticket back in. Maybe Sarah was supposed to have been brought in the same day along with Claire since they figure everyone's attention would be heightened after Claire disappears? But Bennett can't get himself to do it? Maybe he changes his mind after witnessing Charlie shoot Ethan. Seeing that the survivors maybe aren't that much better of people than his family, he wants to go back to them? Just some random plotsy stuff to get future stuff planned that we might need to start building up to now. Take what you like, change what you don't! Ariel DarkSideCookie Kristi Lynne

Well, I'd like to, at least, play out how Derek will meet with everyone, but, after that, I'd be fine with skipping a day so that they would still be in the process of getting to know each other but also been easing with the news of somebody new around. Derek would still try to dedicate himself to finding clues in the jungle as for his search for Harley and Vivian, but wouldn't talk about it with anyone. So, people might see him wandering into the jungle alone at times, but being an archeologist - which he will make no secret of after having happened to be known by Gwen anyway -, they probably wouldn't question that too much.

Omg, that's right! We've got a new face amongst the mid-sectioners! So once our active scenes have finished, should we just jump to like early evening when people have just returned from the golf course?
And I don't think anyone from the mid-section is going to think anything about someone wandering into the jungle. It's normal there. Unlike the Tailies, the mid-sectioners aren't paranoid and watching their backs. They have no idea there are other people and really, they have no reason to not believe Derek had been on the plane and just thrown further. The only thing they're worried about is some monster-like thing and polar bears.
The mid-sectioners have no idea other people are living on the island. The only evidence they've seen of other life is the skeletons at the caves and the 16 year old recording of some distress signal.

DarkSideCookie Kristi Lynne When you guys are done with the current Ben/Juliet scene just let me know! Would love to get Harley back into play. I think we previously discussed separating Harley and Vivian and placing them under house arrest? Harley with Juliet and Vivian with Zack and Emma? I am still okay with this route if you guys are.

Yah, I'm also still fine with that. I think we're actually close to wrap that scene up. Maybe Juliet can somehow get rid of him in your next post, Kristi? Now where everything had been decided. Ariel Kristi Lynne

The Ben/Juliet scene has ended now. I'm down for our plans with them, just not sure how to start. Ariel Kristi Lynne Should we have Juliet and Ben meet separately with the girls? Vivian could have been first and immediately escorted to her living arrangement. We could start a scene where Juliet escorts Harley into a room to meet with Ben? I think they will probably want to try and keep the girls as far apart as possible in case they fear of plans to either rebel or escape. Also makes it easier to give nods to Vivian without including her in scenes. DarkSideCookie Kristi Lynne

Yeah, I'm not sure the exact mechanics of getting her from the cell to Juliet's house. Maybe we can do a small time jump just for Othersville? I had the idea that she could be settling in at Juliet's place, and Ben comes by with some clothes borrowed from Alex. An olive branch, so to speak. I mean, he did give Kate a really nice breakfast spread before locking her in a cage. Ariel DarkSideCookie

Could also include or start with a "welcome" tour of Othersville that points out all the community's places... and reasons why it's futile to try to run. XD "Meet the nice armed citizens. And here's the sonic fence that will melt your brain if you try to cross it..." Passive Aggressive Tours by Ben and Juliet. XD I was just about to do a Kate post at the golf course since the Round Robin kinda reset with the new arrivals but seeing as the last post before Gwen and co. showed up was Kate, I feel like I'm almost double posting. Ariel, do you want the reluctant fearless leader to go first? Or maybe Bennett or Sawyer? Ariel DarkSideCookie Kristi Lynne

Shall we just go with the posting order Kristi had suggested in her last whose turn? That would make me next with Derek and Sawyer. I feel like I want to have them react at this point since, otherwise, it's hard to react to everything before.

Jfyi, I changed the posting order in your Harley post to Juliet and then Ben, since I think Ben will be paying them a visit instead of already being there, and also, let's face it, I'm a little slow this marathon and maybe Kristi needs something to do first, lol. As for the time jump question, I'm really fine with anything, depends on how much time we're allowed to have them be ahead of the others. Ariel Kristi Lynne

Well, the time in Othersville is supposed to be aligned with everywhere else on the island. I do see that I have "An Hour Later" time jump on the other threads but hadn't put it on Juliet's house (maybe because there hadn't been any posts yet for that location). We could put that now and pretend that the stuff at Juliet's house had been taking place a little behind everywhere else, put the "An Hour Later" banner and say that now they're caught up to the golf course and everywhere else?

Hey Losties! Okay, NOW we're about ready for a time jump! I'd jumped the gun because I forgot we had Derek arriving, but he's arrived and met some of the survivors, so I think we're all about ready for a time jump! As always, the question is WHEN to jump to! Right now, we're on Day 13.After this golf scene, the show jumps from Day 13 to Day 15. I've copied and pasted the main day discussions that I put together forever ago. If you go back to Reply #391 of Potential Plots, we'd started talking time jumps. I quoted a couple posts after also. I know that Derek is new, but he could take a day or two to settle in at the caves, maybe lay low until natural jungle news reaches everyone so people at the beach won't be totally surprised at a stranger when he ventures to the beach to meet everyone there? Just so we're not stuck playing Day 14 which doesn't have anything else going for it. If we skip to Day 15, we can probably keep it short. Not much canon-wise but Claire getting attacked that night is what triggers the census on Day 16, so we could first do daytime of Derek meeting the beach crew, then jump to night: I'm good with skipping to the big stuff. I've got an idea for census day. During the kidnapping, I think Bennett and Ethan will get into a disagreement of whether to hang Charlie or not (Bennett didn't intend for anyone to get killed in all of this) so maybe Ethan accuses Bennett of treason and knocks Bennett out and when Jack and Kate find and save Charlie, they find Bennett passed out as well. But by that time, the secret has been revealed that Bennett is not from the plane. So they take him back to the camp but as a prisoner. And I know eventually we talked about a possibility of Bennett kidnapping little Sarah, so if Lee-o wanted that for her character, maybe that happens one night during a great escape back to Othersville.

Since I'm usually watching over her, we could start with me and Bennett chatting. Gabe could end up joining in since he's got suspicions about Bennett he wants to explore. I was thinking maybe Sarah's working on a sandcastle and I'm sitting in the shade of that tree by the shore, close to Sarah, needing a little break from the sun and checking out that book I'm totally fascinated with. I like that Bennett idea! Seeing Bennett also knocked out would give the impression that even though he wasn't on the plane, he'd been against what Ethan had done and had apparently tried to stop him. So some would argue in his defense. I'm sure I'd give him the benefit of the doubt if he voices he tried to stop Ethan. The Sarah kidnapping could come a bit later. Day or two? Next time jump?

Yeah, I like the idea of spending some day time on Day 15 and then focusing on that night. The only idea I had was Gwen enlisting Sawyer's help in trying to find Sebastian, offering him payment with the pack of cigarettes she took from Gabe. Other characters are welcome to tag along, of course, but I was looking forward to some interaction between those two.
I also thought at the time Gwen could see her own "friendly ghost" out in the jungle and then tell Jack about it, so he'll know he's not alone and not going crazy.

Definitely daytime. Actually, reading over the timelines, I see what I wrote in my list above is confusing. The nightmare and injecting happen at different times. It's the wee hours of Day 15 that Claire has that nightmare, so Jack and anybody else who witnessed it can react or talk about it throughout the day if they wanted. It's not until she goes to sleep again late on Day 15 that she wakes up screaming that someone injected her. I love those ideas, Kristi! Perhaps Gwen and lead Derek to the beach to introduce him to peeps there and that way she can also meet up with Sawyer to enlist his help. So definitely Day 15 has more going for it than I thought. Morning - Claire nightmare in wee hours Day - Beach camp meeting Derek - Adventures with Gwen and Sawyer/Gwen visiting a "friend from the past" Night - Claire wakes up and claims she was injected I'm putting together the Day 15 canon timeline right now. I'll be putting it into OOC until we officially do a time jump, then will move it to the Island thread where the Day 13 one is right now.
