Sure, I'll do that as soon as I can!! She's next on my owes. Shall we skip morning and just jump to mid-day of Day 15 when we're ready for the time jump?

Works for me! The characters can always discuss what they did/said in the meantime. I thought about having Gabe and whoever else working on some more stable structures for sleeping, preparing food, etc. And I thought he could draft Bennett into helping, if that's okay with Ariel, to have the opportunity to ease or confirm his suspicions of the guy.

Yay! I managed to get my Kate post out via phone on my lunch break! I’ll do the time jump as soon as I have time this weekend!
I’m not posting in Whose Turn cuz I’m not expecting a reply. I wanna make sure everyone feels their scenes are at a good stopping point before I get a chance to make the change. Lemme know if you need more time!

All my characters are good to go. Since we don't have a Hurley, I was wondering if maybe Linda could be the one who heads up taking the census. Like she sees how much Charlie cares about Claire and her safety, and that's her way of helping. Sorry, Ariel, I keep thinking of things for your characters to do.

That works for me!
Bear with me on the time jump. I'll be doing it soon, just finishing up a big overhaul; something I've wanted to do for a long time. I formatted the Lost RPG like I had the original one on the Lost forum back when the show was still on where each location got a brand new thread whenever it was a new day. It's been making searching for older scenes a pain in the ass! I've been working on compiling the locations into just one thread for each location and I noticed that a lot of them didn't have Alters or had some other formatting issues that didn't look good, so I've been fixing that along the way as well.
Gonna work on that probably the rest of today. As soon as I'm done, I'll do the time jump and we can start posting in the locations again!

Thank you for your patience, everyone, whilst I fixed up the location threads!
Time jump is all done! Jump on in whenever you're ready and remember, since we're starting mid-day, there was a very early morning situation that happened with Clare at the caves that the Cave dwellers could be talking about. Could be that by mid-day, some in the beach camp may have heard about it by any cave dwellers who might have trekked out to the beach.

Just checking in before marathon to make sure everything is going well here. I think it is! Just recently had a time jump. There is the whole Claire incident at the caves that the beach dwellers might not know about or might just be hearing about, just to give everyone a topic if they need one for conversations. We've got Bennett, myself, and a currently NPC Sarah playing beach bowling, in case anyone needs something for one of their characters to do. The only thing that's from canon on this day is Jack and Kate's chat. Then this evening of Day 15, Claire wakes up the whole cave camp with her screams once again. Since we don't have a Claire, it's up to you cave dwellers on whether you want to play that out or not. We can take it easy for this Day 15. Just have some people getting to know their new arrival. Other than that, unless you guys have something big planned for your characters, we could time jump whenever everyone is feeling like the change. Only original thing I recall offhand Gabe wanting to build more stable structures and Gwen wanting to look into Sebastian's disappearance. Kristi, regarding that, did you have any ideas? If the Others took him for some reason, it should definitely be mentioned maybe in Othersville or maybe even Bennett "recalling" or having it on his mind, if he was involved in it. I'd recommend that Sebastian would have been taken to the Alcatraz island for that tesk of removing rocks to clear the area for a runway so that we don't have to worry about an NPC bumping around Othersville. But we'd have to explain why the Others would have nabbed him when they didn't take any of the other mid-sectioners until way later. Perhaps Sebastian stumbled across Bennett and Ethan talking about their tasks in the jungle? If it's that Sebastian decided to trek out on his own, I'm sure there was someone he must have told just so that people wouldn't think he went missing (or if it was the Others, Bennett saying that Sebastian told him he was trekking out after Sayid or for whatever reason to stop people from looking too much into it).

Ariel DarkSideCookie Kristi Lynne No big events we need to focus on other than Derek's arrival! We can just say that Claire woke up screaming again and we don't need to play it out since we don't have a player for Claire. In regards to the Sebastian's missing plot, I think that if Ethan and Bennett had caught him sneaking amidst their conversation that Ethan might take him out similar to how he almost took out Charlie. Especially if Sebastian isn't on the list or holds any sort of importance to The Others. It's just a suggestion though, so I'll leave it up to Kristi to decide what she would like to do!

Ooooooh, that would definitely create some good drama if Sebastian was found. But probably not exactly like Charlie. It was obvious someone played a part in it since he was found hanged, but if they make it look like an "accident"...
I agree also that it should be Kristi's call; either taken to Alcatraz or had bad timing during a trek into the jungle. Maybe he also had that suspicious feeling like Gabe and a few others are feeling and had intentionally followed them into the jungle to spy and was caught.

Hey, Joe ditched us so it's fair play to kill off his character. Since Sebastian was a British intellectual type, I wouldn't have him go trekking into the jungle on his own. As Gwen will point out, all his things are still there on the beach. And as you mentioned, the Others weren't capturing anyone from this group of survivors at this point. So I think the best option, or at least the one with the most dramatic potential, is gonna' be Ethan having killed him because he found out something he shouldn't have. I'm hesitant to have Bennett be in on that, or even aware of it, because it would have happened days earlier and Bennett hasn't mentioned or given any thought to that missing English dude. Do we want Gwen and Sawyer to find his body on their upcoming outing? Ethan could have killed him and placed him at the bottom of a hillside or something, so that it wouldn't look like murder. Just a tragic accident that puts everyone even more on edge.

LOL! Using your characters for drama fodder is what you get for leaving us! XD
Makes sense about Bennett. He seems pretty torn and guilt ridden about what they're doing just by infiltrating and he seems kinda haunted by what they're supposed to eventually do with the whole kidnapping stuff. If he'd witnessed Ethan killing Sebastian, I feel like Ariel would have had him being tortured by the memory of it.
Maybe Ethan knew Bennett couldn't handle it or do the right thing, so didn't even tell Bennett that he knew someone was snooping, told Bennett to head on back on his own, then took care of the problem? Bennett could figure it out on his own when he hears about where the body was found, and/or Ariel could do an Ethan/Bennett post where he finds out or confronts Ethan or whatevs.
Oh, this is gonna be great! Not for Sebastian.... but for some good drama for the rest of us. XD

Something I think would be really fun and we can involve as many characters as we like in this scene. I was thinking whoever wanted to be involved in an airport flashback scene where they are all sitting and waiting for board Flight 815. We can play out some characters crossing paths for the first time. I am not sure which thread board this would fit but I'll leave that up to Heidi. I'm going to create a location request and am going to post there for both Linda and Harley when it's up. Anyone who wants to jump in is welcome!

Oof, good question on where to place that! I wonder if I should create a new board that's for off-island stuff. Flashbacks and the like. It'd be a good idea to move the flashback scenes from the profiles to there. We can have a picture of the places also to get a better visual. Plus I think people forget to look at the Character Bios for actual game play writing.
I'll get to work on that little project as soon as I can, maybe even something I can do whilst catching up on shows. Everyone who's had a flashback scene, see if you can find at least one pic that goes well with your scene. Maybe add it to your existing flashback scene post or put the link here in Plots.

Alrighty all, status update on the new section: I spent all evening and a bit past my bedtime moving the flashbacks from the Profiles into the new section and fixing them up with a header post with whatever info and pics were provided. I need more info on almost all of the locations. I've put ATTN in the subject line and who I need to look over it, as well as tagging each person in the first post of the thread. Go ahead and PM me the info for each with the link to the location thread so that I can easily find it and add whatever I was missing. Sorry, it was a lot of work and I went quickly. I didn't have the time to reread everything to sus out if I could find what I was missing somewhere within the post. Kristi Lynne and DarkSideCookie wasn't there a scene that took place in the same place at the same time, one from each of your characters' perspectives? I should combine those into one location thread. I think it's the Athens ones? As far as flashbacks that were posted within the Island, that's gonna be a little more tricky to track down. I can do a search of the word "flashback" which would find me all the posts that were labeled as such (if all Flashbacks were labeled, that is). I'll work on more of that and the above as soon as I can!

Okay, I just sent you a PM with the needed info for Gwen's flashbacks. I still owe you a location for the Cornwall one, and a photo for the school one with Gwen and Nick. And yes, it was the Athens location shared between Gwen and Derek. Thanks for all your hard work, Cap'n!

I'm going to put this here so we don't forget about it, because Kristi inspired a really great idea! Kristi was talking about imagining Gwen being apart of the Dharma 70's group that got stuck back in time. i've been itching to play out the Dharma 70's group. I imagine Linda got stuck with the group too, sticking behind to look for claire but no avail. Sawyer also becomes more caring since with Juliet, so I always imagine Linda and Sawyer eventually developing a sort of brotherly/sisterly relationship, kind of like to mirror the one she had always dreamed of having with Charlie. The Dharma 70's arc was kind of like a perfect second chance for all of the characters involved. If anyone wanted to play it out in the off island/flashforward/sideways/flashback sub board, just let me know because I am very much down! Kristi Lynne DarkSideCookie Hollywood Heidi Lady Lee-o

At first, I was thinking that the 70s scene would be a fun thing to do, but after thinking it over, I don't think it's right to jump to it. That happens linearly in the show. That'd be like watching season one then skipping several seasons ahead. The characters still have a crap ton of things to go through and experience that will alter them in emotional ways. We have no idea what all we'll be putting our characters through in the huge amount of time from our RPG's current time to when the Others are attacking, the island starts time jumping, and finally, they land in the 70's. Flashbacks make sense right now, and maybe flash-sideways. But flash-forwards would not be a good idea, especially with so many original characters that we have no idea of what they'll go through. We also have a bunch of other RPGs and bunches of other storylines already in the works. I think the 70's can wait for its turn in the RPG's current time progression until we get there. If you wanna get there sooner, then let's concentrate on working on the current time storylines so that we can time jump sooner and more often.

Agreed. Though it would be really fun, it's not quite practical. There would be a whole lot of stuff happening as far as character-building (or tearing down, in some of our cases) between now and 'That '70's Show.' I personally don't feel like I have the headspace to juggle that. It's hard enough for me to play Nora and Sophie in two different timelines on other RPGs. Plus, I think my plate is full as it is, and I don't want to short-change any of my current characters or plotlines.

Alrighty, you guys! I think I'm done moving all the flashbacks to the new Off-Island sub-board! Fixed up some things with the info I got. Just waiting for Lady Lee-o to provide some info on several of them! The subject line has ATTN LEE-O so you can easily spot them. Just PM me the info on the forum. That'd be easiest to find and won't get buried in a thread or chat.

I'm not sure if we had talked about that already, but - especially now that Lee-o is back - what was the plan with Vivian? Did we say where they would bring her? I'm sure Ben wouldn't just let her rotten in that cell while they gave the other girl a comfy room, lol.

Post by Kristi Lynne on Mar 4, 2022 16:14:53 GMT -8
Hmm. Well, I had Juliet tell Harley that Vivian was being kept in another nearby house. I guess it's debatable whether she was telling the truth or not. The problem is we don't really have anyone else in Othersville for her to interact with. She can't stay with Ben and Alex, and Juliet's AirBNB is already booked, so....
I know Vivian isn't a medical doctor, but she might still have training in basic surgery. Perhaps a situation arises where they need her help. In doing so, she earns enough goodwill to help out Juliet at the Staff station.

Post by Lady Lee-o on Mar 4, 2022 17:27:25 GMT -8
Vivian does have training in basic things, as she tried to be a doctor but queasiness to blood killed that dream rather quickly. She's gotten better with the sight of blood and doesn't faint anymore, which will make her an asset in a small sense. hehe. Kristi Lynne DarkSideCookie

Hey Kristi, would you be interested in playing out an Othersville flashback scene with me? I was thinking before the bookclub scene/during the bookclub scene right before the plane crashes. I could imagine Friendly asks Juliet to include Bennett as apart of the club in an attempt to have him get out and socialize more. We could start where Juliet burns her hand and the muffins, and it's Bennett who shows up at the door instead of the old lady? Let me know what you think! I can also temp play some Others in the book club scene too. Kristi Lynne
