Saga The Isolation Log: Diary of a Lost Rebel [OCs; humour/drama] Update 12/23 Days 50-52

I shut off that pathetic little droid and then threatened to do the same to Imp Boy.

 

This planet has hours that are exactly identical to Coruscant!

Ooooh, so she didn't only crash with an Imp, they both travelled back in time so far that Corsucant is still a jungle world. Or so far into the future that it is again.


Aree, in an attempt to stop us from trying to kill each other by way of sand? okay. It wasn?t him. It was me. It was all me. I was throwing sand at him and weakly trying to attack him. My fault.
...
I shut off that pathetic little droid and then threatened to do the same to Imp Boy.


She just can't let him be, huh? That way, she'll never end up on his good side.

And then, just for good measure, I threw on at him and hit him on the head. He fell over and into the pond of multicoloured algae.

And was quite seriously knocked out.

So then, on top of bringing the fruit things back to camp, I had to drag him along. I couldn?t really leave him lying in the multicoloured algae.

You get waht you deserve. And what's so abd about a mulitcoloured Imperial? Sounds pretty.

Great update.

 

It's just past midnight here, so I'll try to do author replies when I can actually formulate a coherent sentence.

[b][i]Day Thirty-Seven[/i]

Entry #117
[i]Time: 0922[/i][/b]

Happy day 37, dear datapad. I know it?s day 37 because I am very, very good at keeping track of time. I don?t have to write an entry every single day to help me keep track. Yes, that?s right, I do not.

I?m thinking I should write a book about my ?adventures.? (Take the world [i]adventure[/i] very lightly there, please). After all, hasn?t there been several holodramas made about being stuck on isolated planets with nothing but a hydrospanner and a comb to help the unfortunate person survive? I?m sure there has.

Maybe when I finally get off this place, I can turn my story in for profit and they can make a holodrama out of it! And then I?d make a lot of credits and what a punch in the gut it will be for my dear old daddy because he always said I would never come to be anything worthwhile. Yay, go me! It sounds like a plan.

I hate getting up really early, but this is the sort of thing that happens when you?re living outside. And on a beach, no less. And the annoying IB is only several feet away from you and is still fast asleep. This is the only quiet time I get. The past couple of days have been downright annoying. I mean, what do they teach in the Imp academies? Honestly, I thought they would teach them how to survive, but poor Imp Boy has narcolepsy really bad and can?t seem to do anything for himself. I?m kind of tempted not to share any of the food that I got (okay? not so much me, but the food that Fatty got for me since he?s such a dear; did I mention that he?s still looking awfully fat?) with him and see how he fares.

I really should stop gloating? yeah, that would be a good idea. I kind of? had an accident this morning. Sort of, but it wasn?t my fault! I decided that I was going to go swimming when I woke up this morning an hour and a half ago. IB sleeps in until like noon all the time, so I knew I wasn?t going to bother him and that he wasn?t going to bother me. To cut the story short (since I do have a very long, sore and kind of painful scratch along one finger from said accident this morning), him not bothering me means that I can find a secluded spot to swim? elsewhere? without [i]him[/i] seeing [i]me[/i]. Which was entirely the point since I [i]hate[/i] putting on wet clothes after going swimming and then having to dry off while wearing said wet clothes?

Okay, that just sounds uber ridiculous. But the point still stands. It should be all perfectly clear, you know. No sense on prolonging the argument?

ANYWAYS. So I go swimming. It wasn?t supposed to be a very long swim, but it turned into a longer swim than planned because I found something shiny on the sand at the bottom and spent a while trying to fish it out. As soon as I do pick up said shiny thing, a gigantuous fish appears completely out of nowhere and tries to attack me. Kind of. But it was black and nasty-looking. Kind of like the exact opposite of pink furies, except that it has the exact same attitude. So the furyfied fish is chasing me and my very vocal protests at the audacity of being chased by a fish (of all things) wakes up Imp Boy. And then I?m stuck between the shore where IB is standing, waving his arms at me and shouting Imperial nonsense, and a fish that is trying pretty hard to eat my ankle.

Yeah. Not the best way to start a day.

So, while my ankle is being inspected for eating by the furyfied fish, I pick a rock up off of the sand and throw it at Imp Boy, while remaining firmly in the water.

I have pretty good aim, but there?s no way I could really throw a rock as far as it needed to go. But at least the Imp got the point. Well? the rock + me telling him point-blank that I would rather be eaten by the fish than get out of the water. He gets the point shortly after that, but while he?s leaving, something scratches the length of my arm. By the time I get out of the water, it?s bleeding pretty bad and by the time I get dressed, I get b

 

This is so great!

On second thought, I am really, really glad there are no psychologists here.

I bet she is! And I bet Imp Boy is too.

So I really like the diary ALOT!. Keep up the great work!

 

I bet it would make a great holovid!

 

Hilarious as always, Idri! I really feel bad for her now - this reminds me of "Survivor", only it would be "Survior! Rebel Style!"

Fantastic job!!

- Serena

 

wow. liked it. can not wait for the next part of the diary.

 

Ouch!!! That sounds painful. And aww, IB trying to help He should have jumped in after her

 

Great post! And funny as always.

 

Maybe when I finally get off this place, I can turn my story in for profit and they can make a holodrama out of it!

I bet StarSave Datapads would totally sponsor the holodrama!

I still love all the little mannerisms of Keri's that come out in how she phrases what she types: the "go me"s and the "ANYWAYS" and "furyfied fish", and so on. heh heh. ("Furyfied fish" was just too cool of a phrase.)


IB sleeps in until like noon all the time

Hmm, but how late does he stay up each night?

Hopefully her scratch will be okay, and I'm curious about the keycard. Could civilization possibly be nearby?

Great post, and I'm looking forward to more!

 

And then I?m stuck between the shore where IB is standing, waving his arms at me and shouting Imperial nonsense, and a fish that is trying pretty hard to eat my ankle.


IB loves a good show, huh? Poor boy, she keeps throwing stuff at him.

A keycard? I hope it is waterproof.

Great update.

 

SURPRISE!

I know it's been a while. January was the last time I updated... but me being silent doesn't mean that Keri's died! No, she's still living happily (say what?!) on her planet it completely obscurity. And she's been willing enough to update her diary for your reading pleasure.

[b][i]Day Forty[/i]

Entry #118
[i]Time: 1817[/i][/b]

I hate routines. Honestly, what?s the point of a routine? All it does is succeed in getting you into a pointless, mindless, drivel-ish cycle of repetitiveness that never stops. I happen to find myself in a routine. The routine goes like this:

1) Wake up
2) Go swimming
3) Eat breakfast
4) Go get food
5) Eat lunch
6) Go get more food
7) Explore a bit
8) Go swimming again
9) Eat dinner
10) Go to sleep

With a fair amount of annoying IB inbetween. And being scolded by Aree. Seriously, who knew that an astromech droid had so many mean, untrue things to say? Okay? that?s a lie, most of them are true in some way, but I?m happily content in IGNORING the matter entirely without some little pipsqueak droid shoving it in my face all the time.

The routine really stinks. Everywhere I go, I seem to have some repetitive pattern that I follow. What happened to living life on the edge? You would think that you couldn?t get more on the edge than being trapped on some uninhabited SLIMEBALL with almost zero chance of rescue, but no. Here, if you?re going to do anything at all, you?ve got to survive and to survive you?ve got to eat, so you spend most of your time getting food. I think I have successfully regressed to how the human race was millions and millions of years ago. Hurrah! Success for me.

It?s all rather morbidly amusing. Your perspective can become so enlightened when you?re trapped on a planet and have nothing to do but wait around to either a) be rescued (which is unlikely) or b) die from option one (you kill yourself), option two (boredom), three (you eat something that really, really shouldn?t be digested), or three (a homicidal Imperial soldier shoots you). See what I mean by morbid? Really, what?s the point of everything? Before you ask, no I am NOT becoming suicidal; I?m just attempting to be logical. Humans are really silly sometimes. We?re the largest race in existence, we sit on the throne of the Galaxy, reigning it down on all the other species (actually, that?s an apt description of our Emperor, but it applies to others as well) and yet we really are the most illogical, paradoxical beings ever to come into existence. Some of us hate life, yet we continue to cling on to it. We?re not usually very good at defending ourselves unless we?re armed with either a gun or a pointed stick, yet we have the biggest survival instinct ever.

I have come to the conclusion that the above is not making any sense at all and I?m quite surprised that my spelling and vocabulary haven?t completely flown out of my head yet. Ho hum.

Dear Diary: I?m bored.

 

Poor Keri. Stuck on an uninhabited planet with IB and still bored. Mabye she should try annoy him bad and enjoy the action. Or watch him fall asleep.
At least Death By Indigestable Item has not happened yet. And her life does sound like a long holiday.
Apart from the looking for food all the time.

 

And what about Fatty?

Poor Keri, bored out of her mind. Maybe she should try getting along with IB for a bit

Really glad to finally see this updated!! Can't wait for more

 

Ooh, yay! It's updated!! Poor Keri. She needs a little excitement in her life. Great post, Idri!

- Serena

 

Poor Keri!

Will we see more interaction between her and ImpBoy any time soon?

 

I have come to the conclusion that the above is not making any sense at all and I?m quite surprised that my spelling and vocabulary haven?t completely flown out of my head yet. Ho hum.

Dear Diary: I?m bored.

Loved it!

 

Poor Keri. I sympathize with her being bored, but maybe it's not such a bad thing for her for a while. If the alternative is having something exciting happen to her, so far events like that have included Pink Furies and homicidal Imperials. During those times I wouldn't be surprised if she'd wished she was bored instead, like the saying goes. LOL.

Great post! I enjoyed her musings. I agree with her that humans are illogical, paradoxical beings. Looking forward to more!

 

wow I fell really behind on this story.

anyway great updates. though I do wonder one thing....I wonder if the Imp reads the entries while Keri's asleep?

 

Day Forty-One

Entry #119
Time: 1405

They say sloth is one of the seven deadly sins. If that?s true, then I know someone who?s going to hell. Of course, he?ll be there anyways for charges such as wrath and pride and the occasionally hunting down of innocent rebels, but that?s not the point. He could at least try. I?m starting to get to the point where I don?t know what to do anymore. On one hand, I feel like I should just starve him, but on the other hands I?ll feel bad for that. Not guilty, just kind of bad. Well, whatever. He?s still another human being and we?re not fighting at the moment, so I don?t have any reason to starve him to death right now.

OH, SCREW IT!

We?re bloody enemies! He?s with the Empire, I?m with the Alliance. If it were any other situation than this, he would be trying to kill me and I would be trying to kill him. For all I know, he?s the one who shot me out of the sky in the first place. I should kill him. So what?s stopping me? Now?s not the time to take into account his humanity. It?s ridiculous to think that I should be wavering on this topic ? I?ve shot people down before and the effect of that has killed them. I?m a solider. He?s a soldier. We?re on opposite sides. What?s the problem?

I have a conscience, that?s what. I wonder if he does. Probably not, the way he?s lying there in the sun. This is unbelievably pointless. I do all the work around here. Wow, and by saying that and actually reading it, I just put myself into the position of ?house-wife.?

Ugh!!!

Why do I think up such random stuff all the time? That totally is not fair. At all.

Entry #120
Time: 1435

I went to talk to Imp Boy again. And now I feel bad. He?s sick? or ill? or something. And he still keeps falling asleep at random times. I don?t get him. His system is entirely screwed up, and I don?t know what to do, even though I feel like I should help him out. There goes my conscience again. Even though he tried to kill me, I feel like I should do something. My guess is that he ate something or came into contact with something that wasn?t all that good for him right after he crashed here. Maybe there?s a cure around here somewhere.

Entry #121
Time: 1509

Fatty isn?t much better than Imp Boy. He?s just lying around in the sun, sun-tanning. If you can believe it, his skin is changing colour. The orange is going deeper orange and the yellow is going gold. His wings having changed or anything.

He?s still looking really fat.

Help! I?m surrounded by slothful people!

Entry #122
Time: 1515

SO WHY DON?T YOU GO DO SOMETHING YOURSELF?

Entry #123
Time: 1515

Don?t start that again, Aree.

Entry #124
Time: 1516

OF COURSE NOT, THAT WOULD BE ENTIRELY REDUNDANT TO DO SO. I WAS MERELY COMMENTING ON THE FACT THAT YOU HAVEN?T DONE MUCH TODAY YOURSELF, SO I DON?T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT. HOW ABOUT YOU GO CLIMB A TREE AGAIN, YOU?RE RUNNING LOW ON FOOD SUPPLIES.

Entry #125
Time: 1517

No, I can think of several different things to do that are better time wasters.

NOW WHO?S BEING SLOTHFUL?

Oh, SHUT UP!!!

IN THE WORDS MOST COMMONLY SAID BY FEMALE HUMANS, ?MAKE ME.?

Entry #129
Time: 1527

For the record, I did make him. Aree?s been turned off. Good thing too, the droid was beginning to get on my nerves.

Entry #130
Time: 2059

With nothing else to do, Fatty slinking off somewhere, and Imp Boy fast asleep, I will say this.

I regret my decision to turn Aree off.

Honestly, what is this planet doing to me? You know it?s bad when your best friend is a toss-up between a droid and a datapad. At least I still have you, dear datapad.

Okay, yep. Finally going insane. Ho hum. How boring.

 

I think he's a she... and I think she's pregnant.

 

perhaps TFTTFMH(aka Fatty) is pregnant and is about to give birth and that's why it's laying around

Honestly, I adore that little droid. He's hilarious!! Got spunk to match Keri's. Hilarious update, Idri!!

 

Aww, poor Imp Boy!! Wonder what's wrong with him.
