Bring on the island ladies!

[llewych_will]

Will walked along the beach, thinking furiously. Abby was obviously frigid, or a lesbian. Honestly, how could she have rejected him like that? He'd thought they were friends! But it wasn't as if she was the only woman on the bloody island. Will just didn't know enough of them, was the problem

Dairine has finally managed to escape the compound, despite everyone trying to cramp her style and spoil her good time, and now she's on the beach looking for something fun to do. There has got to be a party on this beach somewhere!

She notices Will up ahead, looking intense. Too bad he's gay, because she's never noticed it before, but he's pretty hot. In this kind of melancholy, brooding, Heathcliff kind of way. (She does not remember hating Wuthering Heights, even though she did.)

"Hey!" she yells, because gay or not, Will might know where some fun people are. "Will!"

[llewych_will]

Will glances up, breaking into a wide grin. Hel-LO. "Thank you," he whispers, casting his eyes toward the sky, then jogs toward her, smiling. "Dairine! Wow, you look fantastic!" Always compliment them, right? "Did you do something with your hair?" ...Was that too gay? Because he bloody wasn't!

[wizard_errant]

"You think so? Thanks!" Dairine beams at him. This outfit rocks. It gets her so much more attention than the stupid t-shirts she apparently owns half a dozen of in her room. She clasps her hands behind her, rocking on her heels. "You look nice, too. Whatcha doing?"

[llewych_will]

"Oh, yeah." Will winked at her flirtatiously and slid an arm around her shoulders. "I'm just looking for a bit of excitement. How about you?"

[crazyspacegirl]

River pretty much wanted to be left alone now. She was tired of not knowing what to expect, with everyone acting so strangely. She hoped that (what was left of) her crew were unaffected, because she just wanted to hide in her bunk until everything was normal again.

She would have avoided Will if he hadn't already seen her.

[llewych_will]

Score. Will broke into a grin and sauntered toward River, hands tucked casually into his pockets. "Hullo again, Rrriver," he greeted her, giving her a flirtatious smile.

[crazyspacegirl]

"Hi, Will," she said cautiously. She didn't know him well enough to tell if he was himself right away. Experience had taught her to assume the worse. "What are you up to today?"

[llewych_will]

"Mmm, looking for you, actually," Will purred, moving closer. "I haven't been able to stop thinking about you." He reached out to caress her cheek.

Anamaria had discovered that sand felt absolutely lovely between your toes when you stood in the surf. She held her skirts at knee height and splashed about, laughing. She didn't dare go any further into the ocean, not when her hair and face were so carefully made up, but she was very much enjoying herself.

There was a young man on the beach, not anyone she knew but Anamaria did so love to meet new people. Still laughing to herself, Anamaria raised one arm and waved at the man, "Hello!"

[llewych_will]

Good lord, someone up there loved him today, didn't they? "Hello there," Will called, grinning as he changed direction, heading instead for the lovely woman standing in the surf. "What's your name, beautiful?"

[bonneypirate]

Anamaria tittered, her mouth hidden behind her hand for a moment. "My name is Anamaria Bonney, sir." She gives him a half-curtsey and offers him her hand. "I don't believe we've had the pleasure of meeting. I've met so many wonderful people in the past couple of days."

[llewych_will]

Will kept his gaze on Anamaria's face as he bowed at the waist, taking her hand and brushing his lips across the back. "The pleasure is all mine, I assure you." He winked at her, keeping hold of her hand.

Bran watches Will for a moment. The truth is, after what Abby's told him, Bran is not sure he wants to so much as say hello. He could just go back to his room, in which there are snacks, reading material, and a fit boy who likes kissing him a lot, and there Bran would be perfectly happy to remain until this whole thing is over.

Bloody fucking honour. He isn't going to leave Will alone without at least checking on him, like Will did before to him. He's just not.

He jogs down the beach toward him. "Oy, Will!"

[llewych_will]

Will looks up and nods, feeling a stab of disappointment. Having Bran tagging along isn't going to make copping off easy. "I'm a bit busy, just now," he says by way of greeting, trying to make his steps look more purposeful.

[branbach]

"So I see," Bran says, unfazed, as he catches up with him. "On the pull, aren't you?"

[llewych_will]

Will arches an eyebrow. "What would you know about it?" he asks, almost accusingly.

[joie_devivre]

She didn't understand.

She didn't understand what'd happened to Theon, only that he hadn't wanted her. She didn't care. She didn't, because if she did-

If she did, then she wasn't herself anymore. So of course she didn't. She didn't care when Theon'd cried all over her because Edmund had picked on him, didn't care when he'd said that what they'd done in the past - the only reason they'd been together in the first place was wrong.

It didn't matter.

She had no idea that she looked... well. Like someone'd died, when she walked down and saw him. "Hey, Will." She sounded tired, but she pulled up a smile. He was the first person she'd seen since she'd forced herself to leave where Theon'd been.

[llewych_will]

Will looked round and broke into a wide grin. "Shady! My, don't you look...er. Lovely," he finished, smile fading a bit. She looked less than fantastic, really, but that wasn't the sort of thing a girl wanted to hear.

He moved closer, reaching out to rub her arm lightly. "How've you been? Gosh, it's been ages, hasn't it?"

[joie_devivre]

She smiled. "Yeah - how've you been?" She shifted to squeeze his hand, and leaned in to hug him. She swallowed. "I'm.. I'm okay. Theon's-" She shook her head slightly.

"But that's not important. How's your... " They'd never really pinned it down. "Young man?" Everyone was a young man, to her.

[llewych_will]

Theon. Will didn't want to hear about Theon, so he carefully ignored the comment. "Who, James? Yeah, that's over. Good riddance," he added with a smile, keeping his arms round her. God, she was pretty.
