The I AM thread. (The 4-day rule applies!)

[Pingzite]

-Betrayed by someone I thought was my friend. But at least I still have my girl, even though she now knows the truth..
-Can't believe I almost got caught
-Oil is cool.
-Finally found some timber.
-Why is everyone French
-I can't see what's happening,
-Building stuff

[NancyLee]

I am...


...truly happy for them but also worried for her, I rather seeing her mad than discouraged. If only I had a magic wand... And less stuff needing to be done.
...enjoying this unexpected stroke of luck and redesigning my plans. I'm so excited!
...feeling guilty and ungrateful for something I haven't done...yet. And friendzoning that insistent dude more assertively now, hoping he'll notice at last.
...a big hypocrite, trying to comfort a friend while I keep working on the plan that will get me out of here as soon and often as possible; that man is a lazy, useless jerk who couldn't find his own ass with both hands.
...a bit bored, a bit scared. Contemplating his proposition and raising my fist while swearing I won't be hungry again; even if I have to lie, steal, cheat or kill. As God is my witness, I'll never be hungry again.

[Taralyn]

I am

Hoping this might make a difference, but suspecting my friend doesn't want to get better.
Starting to consider heading off on my own.
Wanting everything to be different
Waiting to head off, starting to get impatient.
Scavenging and looting an abandoned town
Finding out that animals are a lot of work
Planning a trip
Sleeping, maybe forever.
Sleep working
Waiting waiting waiting for this to go ahead, the leaders here are driving me nuts. Get organised already!
So relieved I don't have to put up with her any more.

[Wolfsong]

I am...

... quietly working, and sparring with the animals.
... trying to think of things for people to do to keep them awake and alive.
... moving on, more secure in myself.
... enjoying this woman and her company.
... the proud owner of a secondhand sword.
... going to leave this island to explore elsewhere.
... not wanted here.
... taking a quick nudie run in the cold to liven up.
... so happy that those stupid fucking sheep are dying off now.
... sleep working.
... lost, and she's my only anchor.

[BosBaBe]

I am...

-Worried. He said he'll be asleep for a while, said I could find someone else, but I don't want to. Will he be okay?
-Too shocked and angry for tears. I can't believe he's gone, he was one of my best friends. And -she- made him do it! He deserved a better life than this. I hope she pays for it!
-Spending my time with the woman I love.
-Sleeping...
-Waiting for him to come home, he's been gone for so long! I hope he's not lost at sea...
-Waiting to die. It's not their fault, I just can't stand living out here anymore.
-Walking, walking, and more walking. Bloody hell this food weighs a ton!
-Sitting around watching people starve while our pathetic leader sits around. Why do I even bother staying here?
-Walking along a lonely path, waiting to starve. So hungry...
-Sleeping. My sister is worried about me, I can hear her. But I just can't wake up. Am I sick?
-Walking through the mountains, fumbling along blindly. I miss the sounds of my friends, it's been so long. But they all fell asleep, maybe I should live alone. Maybe they have the right idea. One of them said he was going home? Where is home?
-Trying to get settled into my new home, and making some clothes! I bet I'll look good in them.
-Taming a hawk, it would be nice to have a friend. Life can get so lonely.
-Racing my friend along the coast, I bet I can reach our destination first!
-Scared, confused, people act so strange. And why can't I hunt? I should be able to. And why is it strange that I don't wear these things called clothes?

(I have too many characters...thank god some of them are sleepers)

[destinysWalrus]

I am...

...pissed off for what probably looks to others like no reason.
...jealous of her, but I can't tell him. I can't tell anyone. I don't want to cause trouble.
...still waiting. Please let him come home soon.
...almost an expert at this. Good thing I don't mind collecting weird stuff.
...mostly asleep, don't really have any goals.
...sleeping, didn't mean ta sleep this much. Gotta wake up soon 'n get back to work.
...in love, even if I have no clue what I'm doing. She doesn't seem to mind, and I'll defend her forever.
...not really sure why I'm here, I kinda want to go home. This town feels weird.
...pausing my travels in an interesting town. Maybe here I can get off this island.
...sleeping, probably forever.
...sleeping. I should wake, but I can't seem to manage.
...chasing someone mean. She attacked my friends, and I will find her. I don't fight often, but I'm good, and she doesn't stand a chance.
...back asleep. This town's too big for me to stay awake.
...living my impossible dream. I can't believe I found him! Now I have to finish the song so he can hear - he inspired it, after all.

[BeepBeep]

I am...

...Finally working up the courage to leave
...Waking things up
...Making the best of my situation
...Traveling because I'm not sure what else to do
...He asked me to marry him!! I am absolutely the luckiest woman alive.
...Ready to be off of this ship; why did I do this?
...Very possibly sailing to my death; I hope she kept her promise.
...Practicing tolerance
...Traveling and meeting people; I wonder why so many towns are the same.
...Wandering aimlessly
...Still sailing and wondering
...Finding things to keep me busy now that I'm finally alone again
...Not minding my own business..why? I must be bored.

[thamior757]

I am...

...Workin' towards a goal, insteada just workin'. Not that there is any lack of work.
...Heck yes! I have been waiting for this for sooo long. I'm freaking pumped.
...Finally back from a long bike ride. Forget so many things again but at least there is plenty to do now.
...Amassing that wealth. For what? I can figure that out later. For now, I sleep.
...Why are they so quiet? C'mon. Oh well, I'll go grab more things then.
...In a new home and staying quiet. Is there a better fit for someone like me?
...Drilling, worrying, staying inside. Everything will be back in place, soon enough.
...Being rained on constantly. Not much has changed around here, which is good.
...Got my iron. Cleared up a misssunderssstanding. What now?
...Enjoying the attention I get here and there. I did spend years working towards this.
...Pretending to sleep when I shouldn't be. I just don't really want it, I guess?
...Drying all this stuff. It's something to do I guess. I just don't fit anymore.
...Weaving all this up so I can go somewhere else, maybe find a hint of other life?
...Quietly slipping stuff into the food.
...Motivated to complete something when there is nothing to complete. I shall, instead, reflect.

[Otherside]

...pushing a carving knife into my chest. My love only hurts her, so she hurts herself.. dying together is the only way to save ourselves.
...breaking locks, building locks.. but why? I don't care any more.
...working hard for the new boss.. taking it all in and scoping people out..
...standing at the helm of my new ship, loaded with almost everything I own, I'm off to be free, sell it all and begin my new hedonistic life with her. She is amazing.. Life is amazing.
...still working in the hold..
...in the back of a pick-up truck treating her scars with aloe, or at least it started out that way.
...civilisation, finally!.. I've never seen so many people!..
...home is not home any more. I miss when it was just the four of us.
...guarding, watching through heavy eyes.. I need to shake this tiredness, she may be sent away, I need to go with her.
...more people? Join the party.. Our sleepy beach is getting a bit less sleepy.
...sitting on a tandem sewing a huge fur coat together with her, for her, did she tame me? I don't care. I've never been happier..
...relieved that little tête-à-tête didn't end the way it could have.. it would have destroyed lives. I love her, even more now.. but I'll never back down.
...the new guy.. or I was.

[Reaction]

... Disoriented. All of these changes while I was away, and I'm not certain there have been any improvements.
... I don't even remember running out of food. What would've happened if I hadn't woken up today?
... I didn't know it was possible to hurt this much and not be bleeding. Most people don't see it, though, so that's something.
...Can't stop thinking about it. I don't know if I can leave this room on my own.
... I have never seen so content to be out of sight of civilization. We came too close.
... Plotting, scheming? No, prioritizing. So many pretty things to make. Which should come first? Which one will make her smile most?
... Sleeping, comfortably for once.
... Sleeping.

[Genie]

I am working and hoping soon she will be back to home, I am getting worried.
I am sleeping or acting like that, not much difference between them lately.
I am waiting to start my new life but will it happen? I feel old.
I am keeping an eye on my sleeping friend as I work on this and that, do I need to slap him?
I am confused about my feelings towards that person, will it turn good?
I am just staying alive...
I am feeling so much joy about being alive, life is good.
I am working and feeling stupid for I let that girl go...passed long time now.
I am keeping myself fed just not to upset my friends.
I am feeling the urge of travel again.
I am working at the outside, just to have a change.

[Wolfsong]

I am...

... contemplating just what the rules of my new town should be.
... the accidental, proud new owner of some Polish guy?
... cooking meat before I starve to death.
... walking on eggshells here, because of that woman's funny name.
... glad we killed that man; his death has made us more successful.
... taking a detour to settle an old score.
... slowly making my way back home, helping those I can on the way.
... hiding my disappointment; that longboat wasn't one of ours.
... saving the stupid fucking sheep.
... starting a business.
... dying.

I am...

... the accidental, proud new owner of some Polish guy?

This made me lol.

[NancyLee]

I am...

...enjoying my trip, meeting interesting people, getting some nice things for the town and high as a kite. That stuff gave me the munchies!
...having yet another unexpected stroke of luck. And leaving this place before they start mating right in front of my face.
...more prolific than ever thanks to that mysterious woman, finding the rest pretty dull. Now I want an amp!
...frozen. Billeted in his place and knitting like a granny. Surreptitiously adding stuff to our list and knotting a spell to our anchor.
...about to shove this pole up his ass if he doesn't leave me alone. Also the most badass halfling ever, in your face Elijah Woods!

[Optimus Christ]

Alright. Lets see.....I am...

-still farming for stuff, the only other person here needs to wake up or I'm taking off.

-calming down, inside my home.

-working endlessly while listening to the radio. Wondering if she will ever come around.

-Gathering sand while teaching a friend to sail. Took a lost passenger home.

-Working in the one out of two places I don't want to, but I don't want to deal with people either.

-Found a home, now to gather food for the trip.

-Working, working, working. May move on soon.

-Torn whether or not I should stay. She wants me to, but shows otherwise.

-Vacation that turned out sleepy. At least she got to see the sea.

-About to get up out of this town.

-Travelling, Surprised she came along.

-Gathering food for our ship.

-working, with a plan.

-Being taken care of. I'm lucky to have her given my disability.

-working for a boat. Getting to know someone special, yet wondering if it will ever go past a certain point.
