Paradiso

So I guess I'm pregnant now? I don't know. I don't feel any different. A little tired maybe, but that's it so far.

Big thanks to everyone who has been working with Finnick on the house! I owe you guys, and no, Nick. We're not naming the kid after you so don't even start.

My boobs are like really ginormously big. I think I'd feel sexy because of that if my belly wasn't even bigger.

Hey. I miss you

Do you want to feel the babies moving?

I've been here about a week now so I guess I should probably introduce myself.

Name's Octavia Blake. I was born on a space station and spent most of my life there. Being in a place like this is completely different than anything I'm used to, though I do have experience living on the ground and building a society. I can hunt and fight though the weapons I had on me when I arrived are dull.

I really don't know what else to say.

I have never been good with technology, but this seems useful.

Hello, island people. I am Nereus. Or Ned. If you prefer.

I understand that I am the first of my kind to come here. If you see me by the water, please do not be alarmed.

I will also try not to scream.

Today, I saw an angel.

I think I'm in love.

I don't know what I did when I was here before but I'm not...used...to working with people. So I'm looking for what needs to be done and what I might be able to help out with.

With all the new people, we should make this week's bonfire another one where we share stories about our various cultures/worlds. I'm sure some of the newer arrivals have great stories to tell and some people who already shared might want to share again.

Right, so, access to relatively high-tech communication aside... They weren't kidding about making something out of nothing. I suppose we all have the advantage of already knowing how to communicate using language instead of glyphs, and the most practical ways of creating fire. I do commend the locals for choosing a tropical locale, the climate is perfect... Mm. Yes, compared to northern California, this is something I could definitely get used to.

Unfortunately, I didn't bring my bikini. ... Or a pillow. Hm.

That said... What sort of population is already here? I've scrolled a little, but honestly, I'm still disoriented enough that I'd rather just have a conversation with another living, breathing human being about the state of things.
