"Maxine Brown. US House of Representatives. I'm trying to find some water for Claire, and I was wondering if you could help me."
For the briefest of moments, James felt his back turn rigid. The woman was a politician of sorts. Normally her announcing of her position, as if she had come from the Island Senate, would have played to his sense of humour. It was just unfortunate that his recent encounters with politicians, particularly those related to him, had turned his life so sour.
This situation can not end well. Don't get involved. Avoiding interaction is paramount.
There are other people invoved. Get out of it!
He shook her hand briefly. "Claire? That's the pregnant girl, right? I've got a bottle of water in my shelter, I'll go and get it. I'll be right back".
And with that James turned and headed for his shelter, looking down at Leia as he walked past.

LEIA
"Any idea what's going on over there?"
Leia followed Heidi's indication to the infirmary tent before turning back to face her.
"Well the tall guy who's hobbling away," Leia started conversationally, "Severin, I think he said his name was....don't know if you know him or not...he's got a very proper English accent...." She tilted her head to one side as she spoke, replaying his voice in her head. Until she realised she'd gone off topic.
"Sorry, where was I? Oh yeah... well he was with the group who went off into the jungle...and I don't excatly remember why they did, but they did. And he came back with a hole in his knee....which wasn't all that nice to look at up close...which is why I came over here."
As she rambled on, James wandered past, catching her eye with a strange look on his face that made her frown as she tried to figure it out. She watched him continue to one of the tents thinking that it was another in a long line of expressions she had yet to dechiper. Hopefully there'd be time to work on that....

HEIDI
I could feel my stomach do a somersault at the 'hole in his knee' part of her story and was glad she didn't go into more detail. Leia's attention was taken as James passed and I looked from one to the other. Uh huh, I thought to myself. Funny how several people were paring up. Probably the trauma of what happened. It was natural to want that comfort of another human close by.
Without mentioning or suggesting I thought anything was going on between James and Leia as it wasn't my business, I spoke again to get her attention. "Sounds like it was Severin you're describing. I saw them carry someone else in. Looked like Claire. I wanted to see if she was okay but I don't wanna get in the way. You know if she's doing alright?"

Making her way around the two camps she saw Leia, she gave her a small smile before continuing on a little bit to a patch of shade a few feet away. she didn't want to but in the conversation between the two girls. she welcomed the shade and rested.

MAXINE
The woman nodded at James as he ran off. There seemed to be some hesitation in him--most people didn't like politicians, she decided. Perhaps rightfully so. They were snakes--some of them--one's she had met in fact. Mainly Republicians, but a lot of Democrats, the more she thought, were scum too. Plenty of people thought she was scum.
She sighed and looked around the camp, frowning a bit as she did. She looked over to Heidi and Leia, and then to Vivian, trying to figure out where everyone was.

***Gwen enters from her shelter***
She glanced around, trying to catch sight of the sandy blonde hair but instead stumbled on another blonde sunbathing. "Well, it's good to know some things didn't change in my absence," she remarked, folding her arms and looking down at Jasmine with mock derision.
In truth, she was glad to see her. She was glad to see any familiar face on the beach. Just to confirm that they were still there where she'd left them and that no one else had gone missing while they'd been searching.

Jasmine
Someone was in her light, she wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't Sarah. she always ruined her sunbathing. "Well, it's good to know some things didn't change in my absence," Jasmine blinked a couple of times, Gwen? Sitting up she smiled brighly and took her into a hug.
"Your alright, thank god." than she gave her a small smack in the arm, "Scared me to death, what the hell took you all so long to get back? I heard that beat roar and i thought something horrible happened to all of you!"

She squeaked a bit in surprise when Jasmine threw her arms tightly around her. Finally she was free to breathe again. "I'm fine, I'm fine," she assured her. "But it seems that we're no closer to finding Jake, and Severin was hurt when we stumbled onto another one of those traps. Which unfortunately was not a net."

"I'm fine, I'm fine," she assured her. "But it seems that we're no closer to finding Jake, and Severin was hurt when we stumbled onto another one of those traps. Which unfortunately was not a net." jasmine frowned, she remembered the net very well. she still had some of the marks. she remembered having a fight with Sarah, and than making up. speaking of Sarah, she hadn't seen her in a while.
"My god is he alright?" she asked, than her mind traveled to jake. "That poor man is out there still, i hate to say it and think negative but, he's been out there a while. he might not be alive."

"He's fine," the old man said, passing by, as if it was no issue. "Jake can handle himself."

"He's fine. Jake can handle himself."
"Yes, I know," Gwen agreed, trying not to dwell on Jasmine's suggestion. "But handle himself against what? Everyday it seems like some new threat pops up out of that jungle. We're not giving up, though," she declared, looking back at Jasmine. "Severin took an arrow through the leg when he pushed me out of the way after setting off one of those traps. He's resting in his shelter now; nurse Ruby and Doctor Vivian seem to think he'll be fine. Just needs to stay off his feet for a few days. I'm going to visit Sawyer, see if these are worth anything at the island pharmacy," she said, holding up the pack of cigarettes.

Ruby enters from her shelter
Ruby had spent most of the time to herself since returning back to camp, she didn't really feel like talking or singing her own praises, afterall Jake wasn't found, some mysterious noise is brushing around the jungle (but that can't be spoken of) and well the only discovery made was that Severin had an arrow full his foot. She didn't even find anything else out about Nikki and Paulo, apart from they're trying to work out ditsance...or something like that.
She entered the camp to see Gwen, Walter, Jinx and a few others all talking and thought it would be best to see what was going on to offer assistance.
"Is everything OK round here?" she asked, still collected in her own thoughts.

"Just dandy," the old man said with a smirk. He watch Gwen disappear and then looked at Jinx before turning back to Ruby. "It looks like Sev will be on his feet soon enough. Brits handle pain pretty well. I guess it's just a culture thing. Can't look propah if you're hobbled over in pain."

“Well good luck with that, and no more traveling In the jungle without being careful!” she pointed her finger angrily, she knew all to well what it was like to get caught In a trap. And Jasmine just realized it could have been a lot worse.

((OOC: Dude, I hadn't even left yet.))
“Well good luck with that, and no more traveling In the jungle without being careful!”
"Yes, ma'am," she replied, giving her a mock salute. She gave a cursory glance to Walter and Ruby before departing. "Excuse me," she said, resuming her search for Sawyer.
***Gwen leaves for elsewhere***

"Yes, ma'am," Jasmine gave a small laugh and sat back down to enjoy the sun. it was good to have the group back, and maybe she should check on Severin later to make sure he was truly ok.

"Sounds like it was Severin you're describing. I saw them carry someone else in. Looked like Claire. I wanted to see if she was okay but I don't wanna get in the way. You know if she's doing alright?"
"Claire?" Leia repeated the name hoping it would help her remember who that was. Another in a long line of people that she hadn't gotten that familiar with, though the name rang a bell. It wasn't until she glanced back at the medical tent that she realised it was the heavily pregnant girl. "Oh, Claire..." She said, turning back to Heidi. "I know who you mean now. No, sorry, I left before they took her in. I don't really like getting in the way either, especially when it comes to medical stuff." Leia paused, noticing Vivan sat close by. "I know someone who might know though...."
"S'cuse me, Vivian, isn't it?" She called over with a smile, just in case she got her name wrong. "Do you know what's wrong with Claire? The pregnant girl they've just taken into Jack's tent?"

"Yeah, well us Brits just take pain in our pride I guess, so has anything been happening since we got back? I haven't really been taking notice, well actually I just needed some time by myself,Oh and how are you Walter? You know after like what happened when we first got here...when you collapsed..." she said getting quieter towards the end of the sentence

Vivian
Vivian had closed her eyes for a little while, resting for a small time. "S'cuse me, Vivian, isn't it? and the peace was over, she opened her eyes and looked to her right. she smiled at Leia and a new girl who she didn't know of.
"Hello, feeling better?"
"Do you know what's wrong with Claire? The pregnant girl they've just taken into Jack's tent?"
"I believe she over did herself, the heat got to her." she scooted over and smiled, "with a water, little rest, she'll do fine." she turned to the the brown hair girl and smiled, "I'm Vivian waters, i don't think we met."
