REMAINING
On Sunday in the afternoon, you hear a very loud foghorn interrupting whatever it is you're doing! When you look up over the ocean, you'll see... an island! Whoa! We're almost there! In fact, we are there, so go get a last drink to go and get ready to disembark.
It's hard to see the docks, because instead of wood, they're made of glass, for some reason. They're also currently being lapped by the ocean waves, which is why the yacht avoids them entirely and heads directly to the beach - an idealistic, beautiful place with soft white sand and sparkling blue waves. From this distance, you can see not only the beach, but an enormous mansion not too far from the sand. That looks nice... hope you're staying there, right?
A second foghorn goes off, and you find yourself ushered to the gangplank by a troupe of very determined bunnies. These bunnies shove phones into your hands as you pass! You'll get a better look at them in a minute, because the bunnies do not stop there - they practically shove you off the boat down to the beach. Guarded by a pack of catfish-like creatures in little valet outfits, your home items will be there to receive you once you set foot on the soft, white sands. And just a few paces ahead, you spot three colorful figures...
New phone, who dis?
Yay, a phone! Wow, you've been set up with the works, huh? This is one of those fancy phones that cost more than half your yearly salary. Anyway, they've got plenty of features, and the best part is that they're constantly monitoring what you have to say at all times! Whoa! Your brand new Citrus Plus phone includes:
You can add password protection to these phones, if you'd like. It can be through facial recognition, a six letter/number password, or a fingerprint scan.
Your phone is the same color as your team (so orange, yellow, or green), and has a cute little fruit shaped charm hanging from it. It essentially looks like an iPhone, except how it isn't so we here at OnlyFruits don't get sued. And last but not least, it's not invincible! If you throw it, it'll shatter the screen or scuff the case, just like a normal phone. Don't drop it in the pool. You can get a new one, theoretically, but you don't want to know what the cost will be.

Yes, that's me. Live, the Host. [Did they have to say it like that? Yes.] As for expectations... Well, we're on a show! You'll have some events and stuff to do, and some of it is probably gonna be dangerous because the audience really likes that for some reason. So just do your best?
no subject
So, if the audience likes dangerous stunts and things of this nature, finding my books and my lost items would be quite a help with this. Ehm, you know, as you can see I am an awkward guy, I doubt I can compete for attention with all of these charming and attractive individuals, so if I am here, maybe it is because they are interested in seeing some of what I can do?
But no books, no pouches, no can do.
[a smile and a helpless shrug like this is just a negotiation? he's not letting this fucking books thing go.]
no subject
No one else has their stuff. If that makes you feel better.
no subject
[he does kind of obviously have "i'm a friendly customer, i'm a customer who gets it, please take pity on me and make my frosty faster" voice on.]
Well, it was just a thought about what the audience might like. Um, so... I would be interested to know if there was some reason I was chosen for this.

no subject
I was just curious, that is all.

[he isn't sure he buys this but will accept it for now.]
Um, so, what we are competing for - what are the terms? What decides whether we get what we're looking for?

Right. And even if you don't believe it, I am here to help you.

no subject
Well! On that note, is there anything I can help you with on this wonderful new day?
no subject
...No. It's alright. I'll wait until the competition starts, then.
no subject
Well, I'll be around tomorrow if you need help with anything.

SIGHS.]
The mansion should be fixed by tomorrow. Until then... Did you already get a key from Lo'?
no subject
[but molly did, which is probably good enough.]
I'm not very picky about where I sleep, as long as it is safe. And since I do not have my little bell and string [HIS STUFF!!! IS STILL MISSING!] I will have to make do.
no subject
Well, they do not know Molly and Caleb are buddies, so. Lifts their hand, palm up, and a black-gloved hand appears out of nowhere to drop a key in their hand - before it then returns to the void.]
I get that. But you should sleep on a bed as often as you can.
[Woe, extra room key be upon ye.]
no subject
So I hear. But I'll give it a try.
