Being Marooned [Thursday, June 24]

"Today, me hearties," Jack said from where he stood balanced easily on a gangplank (for they were all on the water today, floating a few hundred yards from a desert island (except for the Ikea in the background)), "you will put everything I have taught you to the test."

He pointed grandly to the ~~Isle of Ikea~~ Totally Deserted Island of Doom. "This is the Totally Deserted Island of Doom!" he said. "Forage for food! Create shelter! Make fire! Find a way to escape!"

He grinned. "And most important of all, have a good story t' tell when you have." He pointed to the first student. "Off you go, then. Please do try not to die. It would involve what I've been told is a truly terrifying amount of paperwork."

Make a boat from driftwood and twine! Or perhaps buy one from Ikea!

Create a shelter from palm fronds and duct tape! Or also buy one from Ikea!

Forage for food! Perhaps from the cafeteria in Ikea!

Escape the island! Perhaps using jetskis provided by Ikea!

Jack really needed to have done some more research.

Delirium didn't have any money, so she couldn't ~~cheat~~ use Ikea!

So she did the only thing one could do when marooned on a deserted island with a store that had everything you needed to get the heck out of there.

Yes, she went sea-turtle hunting. And she better grow some back hair for when she was done.

Christian set up a palm fronds shelter -- and promptly took a nap under it.

Eventually, he'd get on a jet ski. Those looked like fun. Right then, there was important relaxation to be done.

Helen went shopping. Why not?

Kurt waited until Jack was heading back to Fandom, and then 'ported back onto the boat.

Lion-o build himself a basic shelter with palm fronds. Then he checked his pockets and came up with $8.25. He ended up at Ikea to get a plate of Swedish meatballs and still had enough leftover to buy a cinnamon bun on the way out. It was really a shame his new home world didn't have an Ikea.

Bruce bought a jetski so that he could use it in the future on some sort of jetski adventure.

You never knew when you might have a jetski adventure out of nowhere. Bruce liked to be prepared.

And so he rode back to Fandom on his brand new yellow and blue jetski. He had to consider painting it.

Because "I bought this boat and assembled it myself with one of those weird Ikea wrenches" isn't that interesting.

Jack's waiting for you on the beach in Fandom for your return.

If you don't show up in a few days he'll start to wonder.

"I bought a jetski," Bruce said. "And then I rode it back."

Bruce Wayne: master orator.

For all of your "WTF, you MAROONED me" needs!

You guys were a blast. Thanks for indulging me in my insanity.

Ahahahahaha marooned on the isle of IKEA I love you extra. <3 <3 <3

DAMMIT I WANT MEATBALLS NOW.

I told you already but thank you for indulging me in my insanity and therefore indulging you in your insanity. It's a win-win situation.

LONG AGO IN DAYS OF YORE, IT ALL BEGAN WITH A GOD NAMED THOR!
