SHARE 5 FUN FACTS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER

She’s in a fairly dysfunctional on-and-off again relationship with a boy back home named Xavi. Before she left for the retreat they decided to put their relationship on “hold” and vowed to have a more serious discussion when she got back. At the time of her leaving she was fully convinced they’re going to get back together and that they’re lowkey soulmates just because they’re basically the same person.

Halima is the baby of her family. She has an older sister named Jahou and an even older brother named Kelefa. She has very weird, complex relationships with both of them, but she is closest with Jahou. Though her sister has historically judged her a lot, and has been incredibly passive aggressive aha, Halima does jokingly and fondly refer to her as “my other mama” <3

Her family has two ginormous Maine Coon cats named Bram and Stoker, named by her dad... a lover of all things horror and who she got her love of fantasy from.

Halima can speak four languages: Dutch, English, some German, and European Spanish (her chosen language to learn in school). She can also speaks bits and pieces of Wolof, or at least enough to tell her grandparents she loves them over Skype.

I feel like I’m running out of things to say uhhh. Her favorite snack is chips and salsa and multiple times over the course of her childhood she ate so much salsa that she threw up... and then she went in for more. xoxo It’s called living on the edge.

Has never been in a relationship but has had several long-standing FWB situations because a woman has needs. Her friends wonder why she’s never been in relationship and Odessa claims she’s simply far too busy and her standards are way too high.

[libbygilbs]

LIBBY GILBERT ( ELLE FANNING ) is an EIGHTEEN year old from BOSTON, MA. SHE is known around the island as THE WILD CHILD because she is CHARISMATIC and INDEPENDENT but can also be RECKLESS and SELF ABSORBED. SHE reminds of makeup that’s the slightest bit smudged, smoking on a fire escape during a party in the middle of the winter , the way that doing something bad can feel so good.

BASIC INFORMATION

NAME: Elizabeth (Libby) Stella Gilbert

NICKNAMES: Lib(s)

BIRTHDAY: October 15, 2002

AGE: 18

HOMETOWN: Boston, Massachusetts

BIRTHPLACE: New York City, New York

RELIGION: Non-Practicing Christian (Presbyterian)

ETHNICITY: White

NATIONALITY: American

EDUCATION: High School Senior

RELATIONSHIP STATUS: Single

SOCIAL CLASS: Upper Middle Class (closer to Upper Class rather than Middle Class though)

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS

HEIGHT: 5’9

EYES: Blue

HAIR: Blonde

BUILD: Slim

DISTINGUISHING MARKS: Small scar on elbow

NOTABLE FEATURES: Rosy cheeks,

PHYSICAL DISABILITIES: Cut her hand / thumb after accidentally breaking a glass as a little kid and still can’t bend her thumb all the way forward

ALLERGIES: Artificial Orange Flavoring (Oddly enough it’s the only artificial flavor that she has an issue with)

PERSONALITY & BEHAVIOR

HOBBIES: Parties, Watching movies, socializing

LIKES: Nighttime in a big city, drugs, gossip, designer clothing, long painted nails

DISLIKES: Political functions, small talk, following rules, waking up early, acne

QUIRKS: Libby loves rings and has a wide selection of them in order to have a couple that could go with basically any outfit that she could put together. The only ring that she wears with every outfit and practically never takes off is a gold signet style ring with an L engraved on it. Her sisters and mother all have the same one with their respective initials so it holds much more sentimental value than any other piece of jewelry that she owns. Over the years, she has developed a habit of twisting the ring around the tip of her left hand pointer finger when feeling nervous or uncomfortable .

STRENGTHS: From the time that she was a small child, Libby was fiercely independent. When approaching a task, she often takes charge, especially when working in group settings. She also isn’t afraid to speak her mind about her feelings towards things and doesn’t let people take advantage of or walk all over her.

WEAKNESSES: Libby lives for the feeling of an adrenaline rush. She views it as being courageous and spontaneous but the problem with this is that she’s never been good at thinking before doing something. This “courage” and “spontaneity” often turn into recklessness and impulsive behavior which tends to end up putting Libby into situations that are dangerous to herself and to others. She has a pretty bad temper which causes a tendency to get into and to cause arguments.

POSITIVE TRAITS: Independent, Charismatic, Bold, Loyal, Outspoken

NEGATIVE TRAITS:  Reckless, Hotheaded, Impulsive, Hedonistic, Self-Absorbed

MENTAL DISABILITIES: Bipolar 1, ADHD

FIVE FUN FACTS

Libby’s dad is a politician and is in the midst of campaigning for mayor of Boston. So because of that, she and her family are not famous by any means but semi-well known within the city.

Much to the distain of her parents, Libby has seven piercings — three in her earlobes, two in her left ear’s cartilage and one in her right ear’s, a nose ring on her left nostril, and a belly button piercing (which her parents are not aware of.) She also has a small stick and poke tattoo of a lighting bolt on the middle finger of her left hand which she got from a guy who had she met 15 minutes prior at a Boston College frat party. It’s been a year since and she’s been telling her parents that she drew it on with a sharpie the few times that one of them has noticed.

She has a crazy good memory to the point where it borders on being photographic but only about certain things. Most of the things that stick in her mind seem to be weirdly specific facts and details as opposed to useful information.

There’s a two inch long scar in the shape of a half circle on her elbow She got it last fall when her boyfriend at the time tried to teach her how to skateboard.

She has a bad habit of deciding that she wants to learn how to do something, trying it out for a little bit and then forgetting about it. Currently she’s been trying to teach herself to play the bass.

FLIGHT ATTIRE If there’s one thing that Libby can’t stand about travel, particularly while flying, it’s the discomfort. As an attempt to prevent this as much as possible, she opted to dress comfortably rather than to look nice. This is fairly out of character for her as she usually cares a lot about the manner in which she presents herself, especially when she’s going to be meeting new people. That being said, she didn’t even want to be going on the retreat so she felt no desire to put forth any effort into a good first impression. She ended up wearing a pair of navy lululemon Hotty Hot shorts, a light blue tank top, a chunky beige cardigan that was big enough to practically function as a blanket and some rings from her vast collection and pulled her hair into a messy ponytail tied up with a white scrunchie.

PERSONAL ITEMS

A half empty bottle of Glossier You perfume which somehow didn’t shatter during the crash.

A medium large sized makeup bag that Libby filled with various small bottles of alcohol that she stole from her mother before leaving

A pill container with about 85 days worth of a 90 day supply of Lamictal

BONUSES BACKGROUND INFORMATION: These are just the answers to the prompts from the application but they provide a little more insight into who she is as a person, TW for drug use.

CHARACTER INSPO: Audrey Horne (Twin Peaks), Lux Lisbon (The Virgin Suicides), Laura Palmer (Twin Peaks), Effy Stonem (Skins), Evie Zamora (Thirteen), Madison Montgomery (American Horror Story: Coven), Kathryn Merteuil (Cruel Intentions)

SHARE 5 FUN FACTS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER (tw death)

Her father died two years ago and left Zoya and her family in a lot of debt. They were already struggling with money so this put extra stress on her mother who had to raise her and her two younger sisters. She dropped out of high school and started working but was already too much of a mess to take the work seriously. She started going to parties more often and smoking constantly. She then started doing drugs on nights out and it caused a lot of drama at home. 

When on Eid day she ruined a family gathering by being drunk and making a scene, her mother kicked her out. After being homeless and couch surfing for three months, and with her friends getting tired of her staying over, she asked her mother to come back and her mother offered an ultimatum. Go to Pakistan or Down of Eve. She chose the latter. 

After her father died she developed a habit of stealing. She just steals shit all the time basically. Pending diagnosis. 

Other than being a total mess, she’s actually pretty smart and was doing pretty good in school without even trying. She’s also street smart and knows how to manipulate people to her advantage. However, she can be a real cunt to people who can’t do anything for her she would find useful.

She often dreams of being rich and successful but doesn’t really know how to get there. Is very jealous and annoyed by people who are just born into wealth.

unlike her twin brother, clarke is very quiet and keeps to herself. she doesn’t have many friends and prefers to keep her nose in a book rather than talk to her classmates. the twins have dealt with years of bullying so she finds it easier to disappear into a story rather than fight them like her brother. 

when kian came out to her, she was obviously so supportive and had her own assumptions before he ever told her he was trans. but because of him living as his true self, it had her start to question her own identity. clarke is demisexual and identifies as queer. (she’d be a 5 on the fruity scale)

she’s read more books than she can count but can somehow remember everything that happens in them. she doesn’t have a favorite genre, always giving new books a chance, but her guilty pleasure is fantasy and being able to escape into a new world

she’s recently single (f in the chat). her partner who may or may not totally be a brigette lundy-paine fc, broke up with them a few weeks ago because they felt as if clarke wasn’t giving them enough of her time. little did they know that clarke and her brother where dealing with everything that lead up to them ending up on the trip. clarke didn’t fight for them knowing that it was a lost cause

clarke loves tea. not just in a british way. like, she really loves tea and will choose that over anything else any day of the week

he thinks paddington 2 is the pinnacle of cinema and he's right

he has a fear of seagull and pigeons. the fear of pigeons comes from his grandad making him go into his pigeon coop to feed them. the stench of the coop was digusting and being a small boy trapped in a tornado of swopping monstrosities was traumatising.

the twilight of adam flight was his first time on a plane. his family were camping holidays or nearby seaside towns only people. his dad blames a holiday to whitby for the goth phase joe's 15 year old sister is currently having. his fine motor skills are better than hers so he's the one responsible for her eyeliner.

he started skateboarding when he was 10 after playing tony hawk games and watching a lot of skate videos on youtube.

he sells weed to make money to help his mom take care of his siblings. she thinks he competes in skate competitions to make money. but one day he sold to an undercover cop on accident and was arrested. his lawyer made a deal to allow him to stay out of jail if he went on the twilight of adam retreat.

despite having to grow up at a young age to become the man of the house, liam is still a kid at heart. he likes cartoons and memes, his friends always view him as happy and carefree despite everything in his home life

liam was diagnosed with anxiety and depression at a young age, most likely due to his responsibilities at home. but he opts out of taking medication for it because he doesn’t like the way it makes him feel. instead he’s learned ways to cope with it like therapy and fidgeting

REBECCA STEVENS ( KATHRYN NEWTON ) is an EIGHTEEN year old from COTTAGE GROVE, OR. SHE is known around the island as THE RACONTEUR because she is ENTHUSIASTIC and WHIMSICAL but can also be CLUMSY and IMPULSIVE. SHE reminds me of faded graphic tees, cryptid paraphernalia, and greasy burger diners. [ kellie, 26, she/her, aest ]

BASIC INFORMATION

NAME: Rebecca Louise Stevens

NICKNAMES: Becca / Bec 

BIRTHDAY: August

AGE: Eighteen

HOMETOWN: Cottage Cove, Oregon

BIRTHPLACE: Seattle, Washington

RELIGION: N/A

ETHNICITY: White

NATIONALITY: American

EDUCATION: High School

NOTABLE FEATURES: A silouhette of a coast redwood tree tattooed on her wrist, native to Oregon.

PHYSICAL DISABILITIES: N/A

ALLERGIES: Cat hair

PERSONALITY & BEHAVIOR

HOBBIES: A lot of the time Becca enjoys researching things online. She loves reading about all kinds of random shit, and will usually whip out the information later in a converastion. Otherwise she’s big into content consuming, whether it’s television, tiktoks or social media. She’s usually always on her laptop, but when she isn’t, she loves going for hikes in the forest. The idea of getting lost is kind of fun to her, and sometimes she tries, though she barely ever does.

LIKES: Nature, people who are good at art, deep conversations.

DISLIKES: Political jargon, being told to clean something, homework.

QUIRKS: Becca is big into the cryptid culture, but is most notibly in love with Bigfoot. Or not in love with him, that’d be weird — no, she’s just obsessed with the idea of him. She thinks its fun and exciting to believe in something everybody else thinks is a hoax. Usually, the more people try to convince her he’s not real, the more it feeds Becca’s obsession. She owns a lot of Bigfoot paraphenalia for absolutely no reason. Realistically, she doesn’t actually really believe in him, but she figures there’s no harm in people thinking she does.

STRENGTHS: Stupidly brave, she’ll run head first into trouble if it means helping somebody else. She’s also able to think quickly and act even faster. Whether her ideas are good....... that’s debatable.

WEAKNESSES: She’s incredibly unfortunate with bad luck, if something bad is going to happen, it’s usually happening to Becca.

POSITIVE TRAITS: Enthusiastic, Charasmatic, Whimsical, Creative.

NEGATIVE TRAITS:  Clumsy, Impulsive, Impressionable, Obnoxious.

MENTAL DISABILITIES: N/A.

SHARE 5 FUN FACTS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER

before the island...

Becca’s parents split up right before she started kindergarten, but oddly enough, it was an incredibly ammicable separation. Her parents always made sure that Becca was priority while she was little, and explained to her many times and in many different ways that they still loved each other, even though they weren’t together, they just loved each other in a different way. This earned her a pretty good relationship with the both of them until she hit her pre-teens and her father moved and began interested in town politics. Not much later, Becca’s mother got a job that would be taking her to the other side of the country and while the discussion of taking her to Boston with her was talked about, it was later settled that Becca would live with her father in Cottage Grove until she finished high school. This is when her relationship with her father started to grow turbulent and has only gone downhill since.

She had a best friend back in Cottage Grove named Jacobi, a witty and sensical boy who played videogames and wrote code at what seemed like all hours of the day. While an innocent friendship for most of their teen years together, it wasn’t until they graduated that things started to change and they did try to date for a few months. It was weird, though, but before Becca was able to come up with a gentle way to break up with him she was shipped off to the retreat.

As much as Cottage Grove has made her life with her dad pretty difficult, she actually loves it more than she ever remembers loving Seattle. She loves the woods and being within driving distance of the ocean.

Becca has genuinely no idea what she was going to do after high school ended, which only amplified her father’s annoyance for her incompetence.

after the island...

Waking up in the rough waters, Becca had to swim to safety with all that she had. Upon clambering onto nearby rocky shore, she was able to finally catch a breath but only just barely. With dread, she thought she was entirely alone, lost and left for dead on the slippery rocks. However, when she heard a yell out it startled her so badly that she lost grip and slipped, hitting her head on the way down along the sharp rocks. After a moment of groggy head-spinning, Becca clutched at her hairline just in time to see a figure start rushing towards her in what felt like slow-motion. Unable to speak, the world was spinning, her eyelids fluttering. Quickly, Becca passed out, majorly concussed she didn’t regain full conciousness until 2 days later, drifting between restless sleep and nausea. Now, upon waking and finally feeling better, she’s discovered that she can’t remember much of the weeks that lead up prior to the plane trip, she barely even remembers that. Can your characters help her piece it together? 

WHAT WAS YOUR CHARACTER WEARING ON THE FLIGHT?

Becca aboarded the flight sporting a dull, oversized tye die shirt underneath a large denim jacket, paired with dark jeans and black converse. Around her neck were a small cluster of necklaces, one being a bright beaded thing and the other being a collection of small gold undistiguishable neclaces.

But mostly, he hates the fucking Gen Z hand expressions/culture (particularly the Debby Ryan and the fucking pointing when talking).

He had to explain that to his Asian mother, got berated for an hour, and now uses an old Nokia phone she had stored away until he can afford another iPhone. Oh, and also capers.

SHARE 5 FUN FACTS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER

His little sister went missing 6 years ago at a local fair his family attended and he feels like it’s his fault even though he was just a kid himself when it happened. Growing up, he’s overcompensated by being extremely protective of his friends/family.

Can kill a large slice of pizza in 3 bites. He’s got that Matt Stoney chomp and his meals lowkey look like a 10,000 calorie YouTube challenge. He is Not Doing Well™ with just eating nuts and berries, fam. Might kill a person for real food.

9 times out of 10 is wearing a cap because he can’t be fucked to do his hair. Most times he wears it front-facing, only wears it backwards when he’s working out or at home studying (yes, he wears caps indoors). Unforch, the cap he was wearing on the flight became fish food during the ‘crash’.

Hates being in front of the camera. Though, a good friend of his has a fairly popular YouTube channel and Callum makes appearances in a couple of their mukbang videos because he’ll do anything for free food, especially large amounts of free food. Lowkey, he’s pretty good at reviewing food and is very proud of the ‘bring Callum back’ comments he’s managed to earn with his word choice and palate.

Callum’s prized possession is this necklace that his sister gave him when he turned 12. He leaves it hung on the bedpost of his headboard so he doesn’t lose it. Every night before he falls asleep, he touches it and says good night. Knowing he’d be gone for a long weekend, he took the necklace and wore it under his shirt. He always does this when he’s going to be away from home.

ERIN WALSH ( SARAH PIDGEON ) is an EIGHTEEN year old from STOCKTON, CA. SHE is known around the island as THE WALLFLOWER because she is EMPATHETIC and INTELLIGENT but can also be MEEK and AWKWARD. SHE reminds of a reliable canvas tote, specifically crosley record players, sticky notes in all her favourite books. [ S, 23, AEST ]

BASIC INFORMATION

name : Erin Kate Walsh

nicknames : Doesn’t mind Ren, or E, but only ever introduces herself as Erin

birthday : January 30th

age : 18

hometown : Stockton, CA, USA

birthplace : Stockton, CA, USA

religion : Baptised Catholic but she and her family are largely Agnostic and are only practising Catholics when the grandparents visit for Christmas

ethnicity : Caucasian

nationality : American

education : High School Senior

relationship status : Single

social class : Upper Middle

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS

height : 5’9

eyes : Blue

hair : Dark brown, collar bone length, mostly straight 

build : Tall, just tall

distinguishing marks : Thick brows, big eyes, two stars tattooed behind her left ear.

notable features : Bright blue eyes I expect everyone to get lost in

physical disabilities : NA

allergies : Technically nothing but any animal products will not sit well considering she’s been vegan for three years and was vegetarian before that.

PERSONALITY & BEHAVIOR

hobbies : Reading, playing saxophone, watching Youtube video essays (mostly about classic novel to film adaptions honestly looking at you Little Women 2019), driving around blasting her favourite Spotify playlists, admiring her meticulously organised and beautifully coloured Google Calendar, spending far too long picking out organic produce at either a market or a grocery store, looking at Yummy Mummy-esque vegan recipes on Pinterest

likes : Stevie Nicks, Penguin classics, camping, their favourite fake creamy vegan pasta, the girl that works at her local record store and may or may not be most of the reason Erin is into records, Daria & Arctic Monkeys smh

dislikes : Being left out of a joke, the blisters that come from breaking in a new pair of docs, Starbucks coffee (its always burnt, according to Erin), people who go to the library to talk to their friends, when her Google Calendar is a mess, parties unless its very very small, men.

quirks : Zones out very, very easily

strengths : Smart, intuitive, ex girl scout and ex lifeguard

weaknesses : A pussy tbh, no back bone

positive traits : Empathetic, Intelligent, Palatable

negative traits :  Meek, Awkward, Emotional

mental disabilities : NA

5 FUN FACTS

one : Is the absolute, absolute baby of her family. She and her older sister are incredibly different and they butt heads a lot (Zoe mocks a lot that Erin does, and Erin takes it), but her parents are usually in baby Erin’s corner and she’s always been far more affectionate with their parents than Zoe. The dynamic has shifted slightly since [redacted], but not by much.

two : Loves driving, loves her little white 2010 Kia Rio. Drives manual because her dad was really insistent on it. Will always offer to be designated driver for little outings with her friends or parties or anything really. She’s got it decked out in weird little things because of course she does. Some fake turf and little frogs having a picnic set up in the centre console, always has gear in her boot to spontaneously camp if anyone wants to, a large collection of tote bags, one of those record player air fresheners with a Taylor Swift “record” on it, a spare pair of shoes because she doesn’t like driving in her docs, and a bead necklace hanging from her rearview mirror.

three : Has a giant love of the environment. Has camped and hiked every spot in Stockton thanks to her family. Though hiking isn’t really her thing, she does love camping with her friends. Her love of the environment is what stemmed their decision to go vegetarian and then vegan. Contributing in a little way worked for a while, but now she’s decided to pursue Ecology at college with the ambition of making a bigger difference.

four : Star tattoos behind her left ear are for the two stars in Peter Pan. Second star to the right and straight on ‘til morning. Got it on her 18th birthday and though the tattoo is very small, she had to pause multiple times during the session because of the pain of the placement.

five : Wants to start a podcast. That’s it that’s the whole fun fact goodbye.

WHAT WAS YOUR CHARACTER WEARING ON THE FLIGHT?

A loose fitting green long sleeve shirt. On the back it has Love Her Better and a graphic of the earth, the same graphic on the front but smaller all in a soft cream sort of colour. Some of the print came off in the ocean (and since its day 9 when I’m posting this), because it was screen printed by her and her friends in her friend’s garage as a thing for Environment club about a year ago.

Blue mom jeans, a distress on the knee. Rolled up so they sit above her ankle. The rolls are very small because she’s tall enough that the jeans kinda almost do that without rolling them.

Old black recycled leather belt with a silver buckle, nothing special. 

Well worn classic black Dr Martens (Vegan 1460s if you wanna get specific), paired with ribbed  brown socks that peak out the top.

Burnt orange cotton bralette and matching bikini style bottoms 

Two gold rings on her right hand (used to be another one on her left but lost at sea rip), and small gold hoops in her ears, and an old style, and a Casio LQ-400D-1AEF (thin, gold, analog watch), water damaged and no longer working

A copy of Women Don’t Owe You Pretty by Florence Given, she had it out on the plane. Not sure if the whole thing was supposed to be like talking to each other or if she could just chill on her own and read a book. But either way was really ready for the whole advertised feminist getaway.

A second pair of shoes: her hiking boots. Though not the biggest fan of hiking generally, the idea of hiking around Hawaii had been really exciting to her. But she hadn’t wanted to wear them on the plane and mess up her look. She’s obviously pretty grateful they rocked up, and extremely grateful she packed them in the first place.

Her Hurraw Coconut Lip Balm. Stashed safely in her pocket and while it is currently probably her most prised possession, she is willing to share with the rest of the girls.

SHARE 5 FUN FACTS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER

kian began transitioning at 16 with the support of his parents and sister. he takes testosterone shots on a biweekly basis, and currently works at the local morrisons to save money for his top surgery. 

the yang to clarke’s yin, kian is fiercely protective of his sister. if it weren’t at the insistence of their parents, he wouldn’t have come on the retreat as they’d be separated for longer than a couple nights.

in school, he was a bit of an outcast — both by force and by choice. kids weren’t always the friendliest to him or clarke, and while his sister dealt with bullies by retracting further into her shell, kian responded by lashing out. he got into fist fights, started carrying a switchblade around for protection; which eventually got him suspended from school for three weeks. the final straw, for their parents, was when he beat one of his sister’s tormenters so badly the guy ended up in a hospital. 

pretty much every day is opposite day with this boy. if he says he’s doing alright, he’s not. if he says he wants to be left alone, he probably needs a hug. being emotional and shit is embarrassing, and the last thing he needs is to embarrass himself further than he already has by existing.

the love of kian’s life is a flop-sided bunny named georgia. apart from his sister, he worries about leaving her the most.

SHARE 5 FUN FACTS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER

Alexa is extremely addicted to her phone and electronics in general and is very savvy when it comes to technology. She’s an Instagram influencer and spends copious amount of time polishing her social media presence. However, most of the life she projects on there is simply for validation and nowhere near who she is as a real person.

She has three brothers (Aaron oldest, Jonah middle, Noah youngest) and she does not get along with any of them. Although she is glad to be the only girl in the family, and glad she’s not an only child, she often does wish her brothers were more...soft.

Growing up Alexa was expected to exceed expectations and signed up for a ridiculous amount of extracurricular activities. She is a jack of all trades and a master of none. She can do everything well, but doesn’t really stand out in any particular area of her mothers interest. She does however know how to cook exceptionally well, mostly because she was never really forced to learn but rather it was something she’d always done for herself.

She is fluent in six languages, although expensive tutors helped she learnt most by watching foreign television.

Alexa actually hates travelling and wishes her family would do it less. She hates the moving around, she hates sight seeing and wasting time. Although it looks good on her social media, she’d always rather be at home doing nothing. 

Extra: she is addicted to weed, has an on-off again boyfriend who can’t seem to stay faithful and is generally very promiscuous

5 FUN FACTS

one : Found out he was allergic to anaesthetic when he had nose reconstruction surgery. Broken nose on the heal, plus recovering from the allergic reaction: he looked absolutely fucked for weeks. The photo his dad took the morning after surgery is still what he uses for his profile picture on everything.

two : Despite spending a lot of his time dedicated to consuming movies, and has a fairly high standard for what a good movie is, and then dislikes a lot of good movies just because they’re popular: his favourite movie of all time is The Breakfast Club. Roast him.

three : Born in and lived in Florida until he was seven years old but he'd literally never admit it. He just says he's from Jersey and he's always lived there but goes to Florida multiple times a year for family events.

four : Has a singular stick and poke tattoo though he plans on adding more. It's a simplistic arrow pointing forward on his big toe. There's a little bit of meaning behind it, but more than anything it was just a test run so his friend would trust him enough to give him a shitty stick and poke on his birthday. The next one he wants to do are the initials A.T. which has significant meaning to him, he just hasn't decided on where.

five : Has two ryukin goldfish named Michael and Bublé, they’re about six months old and God only knows how they’re still alive. He cares about them, but he does not look after them very well. Very Chris from Skins, my condolences to those of you who understand that reference.

A 20 fl oz Cool Blue Gatorade purchased at Newark Airport. Unopened until this boy finds it on the shore and you best believe he drinks most of it in like two seconds, without even thinking it might be a good idea to save it.

Classic orange pill bottle with his Xanax prescription. Expecting to only be away for the retreat, he didn't organise his refill for before he left. There's about 13 2mg tablets in the bottle, on average this would last him a little over a week.

A pack of Marlboro cigarettes, about seven left in the pack and all destroyed by the water. Weirdly, though the seven cigarettes stayed in the pack no problem, the green BIC lighter he keeps in the pack must have fallen out before the pack before it washed up.
