[It's probably noticeable that Roxas has been gone, off visiting the Spades after his last post. He returns on the 24th, not really in better spirits then before he left. It's pretty late so he's planning on just crawling into his hammock and crashing, unless intercepted.]
5/25-5/27
[With everything going on, he's a little disheartened. He'll offer small smiles to anyone who approaches but he's decided to change tactics and he can be found hiding in the crow's nest, observing from above.]
5/28-5/31
[Let's be real. Whatever is going on by now, eventually he's going to be setting foot on Candy Mountain.]
5/25
That would be why Lea is hauling himself up over the side of the crow's nest and trying to cram his long limbs into the small space. He doesn't say anything while he's settling in, but he's there and that should count for something right now.]

Breakneck Cay
Which, of course, he did.
----
Wan is going to be all over this island for the day the ship is stopped. Want to treasure hunt? Call him up, he'll help!]
no subject
crazyadventurous. Obviously that wasn't going to change any time soon.Seeing how there is practically a shoal barrier in place, it is easier to just take Toothless out for a bit of scouting. (Because who needs rowboats to get to shore?) Up in the air, there's a better view of what is lain out for them. Hiccup's brow furrows as he tries to sketch an outline of the island in his journal, pausing to lend a thoughtful glance toward the Night Fury.]
Huh. From this angle, this place looks like home...riiight up until that portion, at least.
[It's here he pauses again, seeing Wan wandering about because exploration. Clearly he has the right idea.]
Looks like we're not the only ones out today, Toothless. Wanna see what he's up to?

Bother the captain
Landing on Breakneck Cay is a challenge, but not one he can't overcome. With a little help from Wan, that is. All capable hands on deck to help with the sails and steering, to avoid the shoals and come about to a beach on the lee side of the island where they can land safely. Landing, though, may involve smaller boats, which Gan Ning is more than capable of rowing or poling to shore.
What, the island's not that bad! I mean, sure, deserted, and all jungle-y, but a good place to hunt and fish to replenish their stores. It's gross hot, though, so maybe they won't stay too long. Captain's having flashbacks to Nanzhong, ugh.
From the 25-31 it's back to sailing, and Gan Ning is available for lessons about the sea, or about weapons. Spar or chat at will! He's rationing himself on booze, because he's heard the reports about this candy place. He's going to need it when they get there. Pick a date and get a pirate!]

Roxas is just watching, looking at his sword again. It really is a nice sword.]

"Recovery"
[ This island is known to hold treasure. Both from some hidden chest of gold to random trinkets left behind by ships that just didn't make it, and these people expect her to just stay in bed and not explore? TO HELL WITH THAT!
If anyone needs her, she'll be exploring the island and the ship wreckages that surround it. Looking at the little trinkets on the ground and surveying the area. But for her crew's peace of mind, she won't stray too far from everyone else. No matter how much she really wants to.]
5/25-5/31
[One more week till candy mountain. ONE MORE WEEK. That would also mean one more week till Gaius' diet ends and that's going to be something. As per usual, the champion isn't following Dr. Gaius or Dr. Leo's instructions to stay in bed. Instead she could either be found in the galley or on the deck reading book or studying maps. SOMEONE has to study up about this candy filled island after all.]
5/23? 24??
For some reason, Hiccup expected something like this to happen eventually. Due to growing up around rowdy Vikings, it was just that feeling he had.
Of course, said feeling kicks in later after he and Toothless finish flying about the island's perimeter. While taking a break, Hiccup only notices the familiar figure poking around the wreckage nearby after giving the dragon some well-earned pettings.]
...Really??
[He sighs, patting Toothless on the snout as he mutters under his breath, stepping back to turn and pick his way over to where the young woman is. And as soon as he gets close enough, he places his hands on his non-existent hips.]
Excuse me, but aren't you suppose to be resting?

5/22 - 5/31
[Even though it was a couple of days removed, the events of the last 'curse' were still fresh in Mona Lisa's mind. She had wanted to be human again, and she had gotten that wish. Unfortunately, it was only temporary. Like everyone else she gone back to...
Well, normal wasn't really the right word for it. She was hanging in there, though. What else could she do about it?
At the moment, Mona was outside, elbows resting on the ship's railing as she stared at the open sea. 'Lost in thought' would've been a good way to describe her.]
5/23 - 5/24
[Oh man, actual treasure hunting. She was actually pretty excited over the idea! Wouldn't it be awesome if she could find a chest just overflowing with money? Mona Lisa was already imagining it...
She steps off the ship and takes a brief look around.]
So where should we start looking?
[That treasure wasn't going to find itself, you know.]
5/25 - 5/31
[She really needed to know:] So why's this place called Candy Mountain?
[What a weird nickname for an island. At least, Mona had assumed it was a nickname.]
5/28
Because..! It is a magical land of candy and sweets and you can eat almost anything there because it's probably made of sugar.
[Whether or not he got this off a brochure, heard by rumor or fantasized the whole thing is questionable. He may very well be a bit delirious.]

Mikey Catchall
[After his post about Donnie missing, and the fact that almost EVERYONE thought he was too stupid to know that the guy wasn't just HIDING, and after some comfort cooking that he barely ate, Mikey can be found moping around a lot. He doesn't do well with missing brothers. And while they try to kill themselves with Breakneck Cay? He'll help out around the ship to make sure no one else goes missing, but otherwise, Mikey is mellow for now. He's not even leaving the ship unless he has to. Forget this island.]
no subject
But he's not completely ignorant of the fact that the missing turtle bro has really hit one hard on Michelangelo. Such is why he's been in the galley. He'd already gotten down the basics of pizza making from Raphael, and fine tuning came from watching and helping Mikey now and then, so there's a freshly baked pie sitting on the table, and if the smell hasn't drawn Michelangelo over, then the thief will just catch him when he passes by.]
Hey Rebound, you up for some eats?
1/2
For once in her life, she knew where Mikey was, and though the boys were against her getting out of bed, she went to the galley anyway to check if he needed anything.]
Mikey? Sweetheart, how are you feeling?
2/2
Leonardo Catchall
[Although Leo was glad to be at a city for a while and that they had another course planned out, he wasn't all that happy either. With Donnie gone and having no idea where he was now, the blue-masked turtle was feeling worried, sad, and overall not great. Still, right now he couldn't afford to mope. At least not in front of everyone else.
He'll be out and about Breakneck City, checking out the landscape and wondering what was with all the shipwrecks while walking around to clear his head. But for the most part, he'll be on the ship, doing his usual katas and meditation. Though someone may notice him checking on his two remaining brothers frequently if they pay attention to him close enough.
After all he just lost one brother, he wasn't going to lsoe the other two under his watch.]
5/26 During the storm
So... if I wanted to meditate, would you be able to help me with that?

He was exploring the ship, but now he's decided to trail Leonardo around covertly in the shadows. He's relatively skilled at this, so it might be difficult to notice. What do giant turtles do?]

5/19-5/31
[Lea seemed to be settling in quite well, but in the time that Roxas has been gone, he's withdrawn a bit. He's still hard at work in the galley and when they make landfall at Breakneck Cay, he'll get off the boat and go poke around a bit, but he'll come off as a bit detached to anyone who tries to interact with him.]
5/25-5/27
[Storms and Lea don't mix! Better not let him on deck or he'll probably blow away!]
5/28-5/31
[Now that everything has settled down and gone back to normal, Lea is falling back into his usual routine of cooking, reading his cookbooks, occasionally keeping an eye on Roxas, and generally being his usual charming self.]
5/26
The dragon keeps his wings tight against him so he won't get caught up by any of the gusts of wind, and he's not even up there for five minutes but already his scales are slick with water. Shaking off doesn't help much, but at least he doesn't seem to mind being wet.]

CANDY MOUNTAIN, BABY - Any day er'ry day
No one would have been able to remove him from the railing as he watched the island get closer, and he could already smell those delectable scents. Of course, once he's finally able to set foot on the island, he's almost afraid to go any further. Maybe he's dreaming.
However, there's no denying his nose, and even more so, his taste buds once he comes upon the first field. Then all at once he drops down on the ground, scooping up a handful of dirt. He sniffs at it, and then experimentally takes a lick. Under most circumstances, this is probably not the best of ideas. A bright smile blooms across his face.]
Oh yeah. This is the real thing all right.
[Yeah, good luck finding him in any one place for any length of time. You can fully expect him to be loading up on candy samples. And you can bet he'll be eying those jewels once he finds that mountain. Hmm...Jawbreaker dodge, anyone?]
no subject
Setting herself down on a rather huge marshmallow, since that should count as her "taking it easy", she just watches him.]
Congrats, I guess.

6/2-6/7: DIABETUS MOUNTAIN
Who wants to go camp out in freaking Candy Land for the entire time they're here?!
Because dude. Dude. This is freaking awesome, he's so gonna bottle up half the junk here and have Mikey introduce the rest of the crew to candy toppings on pizza.
Master Splinter would probably disapprove so hard of overindulging in a place like this, but when do you ever get to be surrounded by SO MUCH CANDY? He'll just have to up his training routine over the next few days to make up for it.
So yeah. Exploring, messing around, going on ninja runs through the cotton candy forest -- Raph is up for whatever!]

CANDY MOUNTAIN CATCH ALL
[Roxas can be found running around Candy Mountain excitedly. He will try and bite one of everything in sight. He has also emptied his bag and is stuffing it full of candy treats for later, or for his friends on the Spades, the next time he sees them.]
B
[Roxas has definitely had too much candy and he is now sick, treating anyone who catches him hanging over the railing to the prophetic technicolour barf that Lea keeps threatening might happen.]
C
[At the end of their time at Candy Mountain, Roxas is hiding in bed, completely overdosed on the stuff. Until he forgets about this experience and devours candy again.]
CANDY MOUNTAIN
Top 5. She spent nearly her entire life being a champion, and yet even her knowledge gathering skills weren't enough to get her a shard. Cynthia wasn't really angry, or completely and utterly depressed. It was just that she lost in her best event and she was a little down about that. So if anyone needed her, she'll probably be right on top of some ice cream hill with a spoon. Staring at the horizon and stuffing her face with whatever flavor she was currently sitting on.
Now all she needed was a bathrobe, fuzzy slippers and a RomCom marathonand to show that she really was down in the dumps, she was even using a really REALLY long straw (which is made of hollowed out candy canes that were stuck together...don't ask her how she did that, she has pokemon.) so she could drink from the chocolate river without having to move from her spot.6/2 onwards
She was either feeling much better about her loss, or really REALLY good at hiding her frustrations. Either way, she'll be strolling around. Probably studying the candy animals or tasting some weird new candy. Basically keeping herself busy.
In addition to that, she had managed to find a whole grove of sweet heart candy trees, so she decided to pick some and leave them laying around on the ship for her boys (and girl) to find. Don't worry, they're in small bags labelled with their names.

Candy Mountain Catchall- 6/2 - 6.7
But on the other hand, he wasn't exactly happy that he lost the Riddle Contest so easily. He wasn't depressed or anything, but he was disappointed with himself. Also when he came back he found out about his bounty. Sure it was cool and all, but not only did that put a bigger target on their backs, but that meant that he and Raph had been noticed. They were ninjas, they tuck tot he shadows, They weren't ever supposed to be seen. Ever.
So while on the mountain, he'll be exploring and checking on little brothers while still doing his usual training. Hey, just because they were on a Candy Mountain didn't mean that he was getting off track with the important things.]

Candy Mountain
[She'd heard about the so-called "Candy Mountain" and how it was more than just a cute nickname. It wasn't until she actually set foot there that it finally began to sink in. Everything. Absolutely everything was some kind of edible sweet. It was crazy and made no sense at all. But hey, when in rome...
She started out slow, having a small piece of chocolate here and there. Though it didn't take long for Mona to get into the spirit of "Oh my god, I'm surrounded by candy."
When would she ever get another chance like this?]
6/6 - 6/7
[By the end of her stay, however, she was far less excited about being there. "Just one more piece of chocolate," she said. "What can it hurt?" she said. It may have been entirely likely that Mona was now feeling the effects of indulging in too much candy.
Actually, that was exactly what was happening to her.
She had confined herself to the ship, her stomach being less than thrilled by all the treats she'd helped herself to. Even the sweetness of the air was enough to make her feel nauseous send the poor girl running for the ship's edge.]
