It's been a little over a week, Stacie thinks, though she hasn't exactly been keeping track of time lately. Time enough for her to calm down, at any rate. Getting out may not have been easy, but at least it's given her the chance to think things through ( Read more... )

Things have been fairly quiet lately, and for that, Stacie can't help but feel grateful. The last thing she wants is to be put in the middle of Danny and Ash and this sort of feud of theirs; any break in the tension is a relief, as far as she's concerned ( Read more... )

With the island completely transformed yet again, at this point there's not much Stacie wants more than to get back to the hut, as different as it looks. Still, she's said she'll wait in the kitchen so they can head back together, and that's where she is, more relaxed than usual now that the room is just about empty.

They made a mistake; they've made them before, after ( Read more... )

There may be a way to continue conning on the island, lack of actual marks aside, but that doesn't mean there's much to actually do. Lurking around the Compound too much would only bring about suspicion, which they can't afford this early in the game; going the beach, nice as it is, involves a long walk, which gets tiring after a while; and the hot ( Read more... )

It's a surprise to a good number of people, it would seem, to find the Compound and Hub set up for a party. Still, it doesn't take long to come up with a plan, and so before too long, they're all three making their way back to the cabin - staggered, of course, so as not to draw attention to themselves - bringing all they can manage to get away with ( Read more... )
