It had been over a month since Nathan had wound up in this crazy, mixed up place. The Election had come and gone, and he'd missed it. Nevermind the fact that the calender here seemed to indicate it was about Six Months into the future anyway. And while that thought weighed heavily on his mind for a while, it slowly receded in the wake of other, more immediate problems.
Over the weekend that Peter had been in a Coma, Nathan had been outwardly calm, and inwardly a sea of turmoil. He tried to ignore the fact that he'd been found in a questionable state with Gwen Cooper, as it wasn't exactly important at the time. And not only Peter, but half the island had found themselves in similar states.
Now, things seemed to have smoothed over. Everyone was awake, and for the most part, going about their business as if nothing had happened. In truth, once he'd found his brother was alright, Nathan had... almost disappeared. He'd wandered the edges of the island, looking for outs, looking for ways there might be to get off.
He thought about Heidi. He thought about his boys, and as much as she could be a pain in the neck sometimes, he even thought about his mother.
Suddenly, the election was not the most important thing he'd recently lost.
But at least I can try to get them back.
[ ooc: Nathan is out walking the island. He definitely doesn't look like the nice clean, put together congressional candidate he normally would. He's been out scouting the island, and failing miserably. Catch him on the beach, on the path, or arriving back at the compound. Slow and late tags welcome!]
