Hey dudes, it's a Mari!

Mari is older, wiser and less horribly traumatised than in GH and as such she's less self-destructive, kinder, and not as likely to betray everyone she meets. Or kill people. She's still a dick, though.

While there are still people she attaches herself to like crazy, she's mostly very casual and laid-back about most of her relationships. She's also hella thick skinned and assumes everyone else is too. Just tell her you're upset and she'll apologise, what's the big deal?

As for skills she's brought to the island, she's a medical student (although that's been put on hold recently) and a first aider in St. John's Ambulance service. She can also do some sewing and cooking.

While she occasionally makes references to TV, she almost never uses the internet. No big deal, her brother is some big shot investor in social networking sites and seeing his name everywhere pisses her off. Also her voice is naturally veerrry soft so it's usually a surprise when she drops five f-bombs in one sentence.

In the airport you might have seen her and her brother having the most awkward pre-flight goodbye ever. On the plane, she was probably sleeping, tbh. If you were sitting next to her, she might have had her head on your shoulder. Delicious personal space.

QUICKFIRE CHALLENGE! Favorite TV shows.

S-subject to change

[asimplemistake]

Regular Show, Misfits, Breaking Bad. Jesse Pinkman is incredibly good looking.

[arhythmitist]

MISFITS! BREAKING BAD! Those are soooooo good. Breaking Bad was too harsh for me, though, had to give it up. I AM NOT THE ONE WHO KNOCKS!

He is a cutie. I could stare into those eyes forever, even without being on meth!

Sigh. Adieu, TV.

[asimplemistake]

His eyes, his face, his...everything.

What will we do without it?

[arhythmitist]

EY, YO, WE'LL FIGURE SOMETHING OUT, MR. WHITE!

[brightlywound]

Well, you're very handy. A domestic and a professional. I wish I was half so useful.

You don't get on with your brother, then? That's a shame.

[asimplemistake]

I don't know about domestic. Those are just basic life skills, right?

Yeah, well. Nobody gets along with their family all the time.

[brightlywound]

Not anymore. Not for everyone, at least.

That's very true. And I shouldn't ask about your affairs. I'm sorry.

[asimplemistake]

It's simple enough to learn both skills. And now you've all the time in the world. Just find the materials and give it a shot.

It's fine. Do you have any siblings?

[brightlywound]

We really shouldn't waste food... I'm sure there's enough on the island to support us, but just to be certain.

I've an elder brother as well. I can't say that we fight much, but then I'm away most of the time.

[afterglowing]

Do it. Use fuck five times in a sentence without sounding fucking ridiculous.

Did see you with your brother. Wondered what that was about, but people-watching is only entertaining for so long, yeah?

[asimplemistake]

Most people sound ridiculous when they swear. But alright. Fuck motherfucking gravity and fucking planes and to hell with the fuckity fucking ocean.

You spy on other people often?

[afterglowing]

Had me til 'fuckity'.

Anyone who says they don't watch people at the airport is a liar.

[asimplemistake]

Well fuckity fuck me.

I don't. What's so interesting about it?

[afterglowing]

Everyone's different at the airport. Stressed about something or other is the usual, but that gets boring. Dunno. You ever make it to another airport, you should try.

Know anything about medical plants and how to identify them? The first aide kits aren't going to last us a long time

[asimplemistake]

Only stuff from mum and dad, and those are to do with British and Irish plants. There might be similar plants here, but the difference in environment is huge. I doubt anything I know about plants from home is transferable. Aloe Vera is about the only tropical plant I might recognise.

What about you, pretty boy?

[allbarkandnobite]

It depends on if we're in the Australasian or Oceania ecozones. I think Oceania would be easier to determine, but I was studying Australian plants and might have more to base information from for any that would be useful medically or edible.

[asimplemistake]

Why are you gabbing to me in that case? Get moving and see if anything looks familiar.

[allbarkandnobite]

I have been. Results thus far are inconclusive

[spickandspan]

Sewing. Good. We're going to last much longer than our clothes are.

[asimplemistake]

Why not just become nudists?

[spickandspan]

That's just begging for sand burn.

[asimplemistake]

It'll be fun until then.

[spickandspan]

There's an obese old man among us. It will NOT be fun. NOT AT ALL.
