[See here.

There are plenty of little lines and markings forming on the pages. The lines form shapes, but they aren't letters. Or, more like they aren't letter that are instantly recognizable, but perhaps that isn't the first time that's happened.

But some of these lines are continuous, swaying one way, gently curving back. Some are short, quick strokes hastily woven together across the page. Others are smudged, redrawn, or partially "erased."

After a few minutes of initial nonsense becomes a clearer picture:]

( Cut because OOCly got carried away )

Yeah, I don't know if that helps, but...

[A breath is taken and is released as a sigh.]

I know. I've heard that there's been a dragon running around the island – what is this place called, Isla Empierrrwhatta? Emp, empiri– oh, whatever. That's not important, what's important is that I get Toothless back.

From what I've heard, he was headed toward the docks? That was days ago, I can't keep track of days and I haven't any sign of him since! So if you've seen him, please tell me.

[Pause. An afterthought:]

I'm Hiccup. I'm a Viking. Thanks.

Who: Crew of Antoinette

Style: Whatever!
Status: Open to those on island

For the first time since he'd come to this place -- six months, now -- Kyouya Otori was actually speechless. Not frightened, not frustrated, not angry. Simply awed.

The island was beautiful. It seemed absolutely quiet, but in a way that suggested tranquility rather than stillness. A welcoming calm, not a foreboding one.

The trees grouped together, parting in places to create paths. It wasn't natural, but it also didn't seem tended. There were no signs of branches having been cut back or the like.

Magic at work, Kyouya accepted.

"So." Somehow, on the shore, he couldn't bring his voice to be anything but a calm murmur. Anything else would disrupt the very air of the land around them. "Do we want to all go together? Or take separate paths and meet up later?"

Who: Toothless, and a group of idiots. (The crew of the Antoinette.)
Where: Isla Empieza docks; the Antoinette
When: Backdated to February 12th, late afternoon.
What: Hikaru manages to bring home a dragon instead of any of the things he set out to buy.
Warnings: dragondragondragondragondragondragondragondragon
Style: Deep-fried ...Whatever people feel like?
Status: Open to anyone in the vicinity of the Antoinette.

( At least now he knows what dragons eat. )

Who: Absolutely anyone
What: The Host Club is open for business!
Where: Antoinette, currently docked at Isla Empieza
When: February 7th - 14th (+ additional dates for crew members)
Style: Whatever you want
Status: Mostly open, some sections closed to crew members
Warnings: None. Will add if necessary.


Loans have been issued, furniture has been supplied, and food had been bought.

The deck of the Antoinette is plainly decorated. There are a few rugs about, but, for the most part, small tables are arranged with couches and chairs. Platters of food are waiting, mostly sandwiches and sweets. Little snacks. There's plenty of hot water kept on hand, too, for tea or commoner's instant coffee.

The Host Club are looking their best, even though their best might be a little more ragged than they would otherwise appear.

Posters have been put up around town, advertising the opening of the Royal Host Club, specifying the Antoinette's location, and disclosing the offer of refreshments.

On the 13th, things will only get more interesting when a bowl of candy appears overnight and adds to the Host Club experience.

(Please feel free to specify dates for interactions in the subheadings below and make your own subheadings if there's something else you want to see.)

Who: Anyone. Everyone.
What: A party on the Antoinette, for Haruhi's birthday.
Where: The docks at Isla Empieza, and on-board the Antoinette.
When: February 4th, afternoon and evening
Style: Whatever floats your boats!
Status: Open to everyone! Come enjoy the celebration.
Warnings: None yet; will be added as they occur.

The docks are usually loud and busy, but today, one ship sticks out as being particularly energetic. Those on the Antoinette are preparing a surprise for one of their crew, and they are not being quiet about it in the least. Instructions are shouted from one end of the deck to the other about decoration placement; some unlucky passers-by may wind up with rejected decorations on their heads, as anything deemed 'not good enough' will be carelessly tossed over the side of the ship.

A steady stream of food is being delivered to the Antoinette, and placed on top of a series of makeshift tables decorated with over a dozen drawings of happy tanukis, each enjoying a different meal, and each with a party hat on. Anyone who comes onto this ship and tries to eat something without permission will be swiftly descended upon by a member of the crew - this food is not to be enjoyed until the birthday girl returns.

Games have been planned; some more carefully than others. They've not managed to find a decent musician around yet, so unfortunately this party is sadly lacking in the music department - anyone with an instrument and talent would be welcomed.

All entrances to other parts of the ship have been roped off, and any attempt to explore beyond the deck will result in Trouble.

Come enjoy the party, and make some new friends!

Who: The crew of the Antoinette
Where: Three Moons Tavern and Inn, Island Empieza
When: January 12th-19th
What: Time to get reacquainted, make new introductions, and weather the storm until they can return to their ship. And collect black coral from the beach.
Warnings: Possible language?
Style: Any
Status: Closed

(Please feel free to make new headings [for your character, for a day, for your character on a day, WHATEVER] and/or threadjack and/or use this as a mingle log. Backdating, forward dating, etc., all more than welcome.

ETA: With regards to Dog's suggestion of the coral, the evening of the 12th will be used to arrange the next week's rotation for keeping Tamaki company and checking the beaches for coral.)
