week 1 - hiro - tuesday afternoon

[completelycrazy]

[May as well hike up a potentially active volcano to look for interdimensional portals as a way to take their minds off of the whole murder thing! Up they go, and it's, frankly, more physical activity than Newt signed up for. It's hot, and this island life sounded way more exciting in theory.]

Yeesh, no wonder no one else has checked this place out yet. [Have they?? Newt didn't spend much time asking around. They are trailblazers, he and Hiro, for sure.] It's not exactly easy to get to.

You'd think so. They don't seem like the type of people just to do it for appearances. But then again, we all showed up in swimsuits so maybe we're off on that, too.

...maybe that's why we'll only be here for two months. If we don't kill each other first, the volcano will do it for us.

[...Oh shit.]

You might be onto something there. That's, uh, unsettling. [...] Doesn't look like there's much else to see up here, though. We should probably head back before it gets dark.

[zerotohiro]

Yeah...we should. [There's a beat as he bounces on the balls of his feet for a bit, a little more nervous at the idea that that's how they're going to go.] Race you to the bottom? [And he's already off. Come on, Newt. Keep up.]
