Paradiso

Wow. I had no idea the island was going to be like this. I mean, I know I signed up for it, obviously I did, but I didn't know it'd be this beautiful.

What? I'm a Minnesota farm kid. Let me be amazed, okay?

So, yeah, I'm Adam and I'm apparently very easily amazed.

I could have sworn Phillip smiled at me today but I think it was just gas. Doesn't matter, I'm counting it.

Congratulations, Doc. Since you delivered my kid, do I get to deliver yours?

Nothing like getting a mouthful of salt water to wake you up.

I'm Kate. Kate Bishop. World's greatest archer. Hero. Avenger. You get the hint. Call me Kate. Or Hawkeye.

You can get margaritas around here, right? That's part of the whole package deal?

I'm happy to share that the island now has one new resident! Phillip James was born yesterday and both he and Natasha are doing well. Just check in with Nat or myself before stopping by in the next couple of days, just to make sure we're up for visitors. I freely admit to wanting to monopolize my son's time for a couple of days.

Hello? This is my first time on the network. My name is Jyn Erso, my friend and I arrived a few days ago. I have no idea what else to say.

Hello, fellow island dwellers. For those who I have not met, I am Wanda.

I was thinking that perhaps for this week's bonfire we might have a barbecue. We have a good supply of meet, but another boar would not be a bad thing if someone wishes to do some hunting. If there is anyone who wishes to help cook, I would not say no to that, either. Perhaps it won't be what many of us are used to, but I think it might make for a nice departure from routine, if people are interested.

I gave birth to a healthy, beautiful baby girl yesterday.

She's... perfect. I decided not to name her since she's going to live with Arva.

Thank you for the moral support.

There is so much about this island to explore and see that it would take a lifetime to enjoy it all. I couldn't imagine a better place to spend these days. Paradise is too simple a word.

How does a sunset picnic on the beach sound?

Pregnancy sucks. A lot.

I don't understand how my mother managed to completely hide hers when she was expecting me.

How big is this island? How far has anyone gone walking around it? I was considering taking an expedition. An exploratory one, of course. I have no use for looking for ways off or other people outside of our community, however I have grown a bit tired of the same path and sights day in and day out.

Christopher Allen Chapel was born early this morning at the Medical Center. We're both fine and if anyone wants to stop by and meet him, we're at home. He's pretty damn amazing.

Wow. This place is more beautiful than I imagined. So much for Hawaii. There's so much sunlight here.

[Private to Nick]

I did get the feeling that you have fun pretending to be me, but I'd really like for you to stop.

[Private to Wanda]

Nat and I are hiding going to spend the next forever few days at her place. Come by and have lunch with us?

[Private to Peggy]

I'm going to be scarce for a while. If you need me, I'm just a message away.

We're going to start working on the dorm-style building project today. Who wants to help?

Also, just so we have a general head count, how many people will actually want to live there on a regular basis?

Hello? I hope I am using this device correctly. My name is Wanda. I understand our purpose here, but what do I do now that I am here?

Finnick has very kindly been letting me stay at his extra place since I got here, but I really do need to figure out my own digs sooner rather than later. I'm totally down for living in the communal space once that's built, but can any of you kind people help me get something together that's a little more private? I'm totally willing to make clothes for you in trade.

I must have done something to please the gods. I woke up in a bed this morning and I got two outfits to boot. I'm sure everyone was sick of my black tank top and sports bra. God knows I was.

Slumber party? At least we won't have to worry about rolling off onto the floor.

As much as I actually enjoyed a few days shut in with the snow, I'm enjoying the sunshine much more.

I've decided to be done with my shelter. I was able to get a simple lean-to up between two trees and a hammock strung between. It's such a wonderful feeling, sleeping out there in the open, in the fresh air. It's wonderful.

Anyone who wants to meet the kid should probably do that soon since Bruce and I will be giving her to Arva. The sooner the better before I get too attached

I would much rather be at the Medical Center helping get things ready for the babies BUT I've been told I need to keep warm and not worry. Which I hate because I would rather be busy. Thankfully I found some yarn so I am knitting baby hats. Babies lose a lot of heat through their heads so they'll need them when they're born if this snow keeps up.

I'm nearly finished with the ones for the three babies due this week. Anyone else who is expecting, I'm happy to make you one too. The yarn is all white so I hope that's okay. If anyone knows anything about dying it, that would be nice and we could have some colors to choose from.
