Arturo eyes the the book. Instantly he recognizes his private book and snatches it from Augens grasp. Holding it tenderly he looks up at his newfound companion with a disgruntled look.
"Yes... That would be my book. I thank you for finding it..." Arturo mutters numbly.
He looks up around him. Beach and ocean as far as the I could see. He smiles lightly not completely taking in the gravity of the situation.
"Ah... La mar... She is beautiful is she not?"

He walks past her giving a small laugh. After a some time searching through the brush and beach they find a sizable pile of stick and driftwood, and a lot of large palm branches.
"I wish these where coconut palms..."Judus comments handing Ricki a stick to use as a pole for the shelters frame.

Her stomach grumbled at the mention. Her lips were dry and so was her mouth. "Please don't talk about food..."
She got the gist of what they were doing, but she still needed a little direction here and there. "Unless you know where to get some..." She asked hopefully.

"La mar? I assume you speak of the view," Augen said, a little confused but knowing that this was the least of his worries. He looked to the sea. "Yes, indeed... It is very pretty... But I'd concern myself more with finding food and shelter from the rain. Most importantly, I think it'd be wise to look for other surviviors, eh," he said, walking off a few yards before turning back to Arturo. "Would you like to come along? I'd imagine it'd be optimal, as I'm not sure if I'd remember your location... Besides, I wouldn't just want to leave you here."

"I do but you won't like the answer......"He says directing her attention to the bottoms of trees and plats that had been nibbled at, and the lines of....rat waste that followed his middle finger as he pointed with it.
He started on the first layer of palm branches on the slanted shelter.

She gave a loud sigh. "Isn't that just great... I suppose I've eaten worse..." She said making a face.
She grabbed another palm branch and helped him place them. "Sooo, whats next?"

"We add....another layer just to make sure its water proof...and then look into food...and of corse fire..."He says finishing the final weave on the second palm layer.
"So...um....do you have any hobbies?..."

She chuckled. "You suck at small talk." She said shaking her head.
Ricki leaned against a palm tree. "Well, I play the guitar and I like to read. I also make jewelry, but I guess since its work it doesn't really count as a hobby."
"What about you?" She asked.

Arturo reluctantly tears his eyes away from the sights and turns to follow Augen. He heaves a great sigh and holds his book close to his side.
"La mar is the ocean my freind. She is a beauty is she not?" Arturo replies annoyed.

"Indeed, she is," Augen replied, trying not to sound ignorant. "But in this case she could be like a siren, luring us away from the matter at hand. My logic is I'll have plenty of time to seagaze later... But for now, I'd rather find out more about the island, as well as if there are others like us... After all, we don't know how long we'll be stuck here," he explained, before wiping some sand off of his glasses.

"A little of this....and that...mainly work, but i draw, sculpt, read...anything to keep myself busy."He says weaing int the start of the last layer.
He looks out at the ocean.
"How far out there do you think the plane crashed?"There was no sign of the plane, however the water did turn a solid blue after so many yards, the reef itself might be hiding the wreckage.

"How should I know." She shrugged, looking at their little shelter.
She looked out at the water, everything looked calm. "You know... when we crashed it was still dark, I didn't even know there was an island here."

Arturo sighs with exasperation. His newfound buddy seemed to have the focus, but none of the reverence or respect the ocean demanded. Arturo prayed for his life.
"No my new friend... I suppose you are right. Of course right now I feel like I could battle an ox blindfolded!" Arturo hops in place, taking a boxing stance.
"Now then, lead the way!"

"Me either, but then again i don't even realy remember the crash. well I remember my damn tray wouldn't stay up" Judus says as they finish the final layer of palm branches.
Using the extra palm braches as bedding after they gave them a propper beating against a tree to make sure they hadn't picked up any unwelcome guests. Giving the sheler a smae shove they decide it's livable.
"Now fire.......wouldn't happen to have a lighter would ya?"He jokes standing.

She shook her head, smiling a little. "Why use a lighter when we can bang rocks together."
"Come on, lets go find tinder." She said. "Or whatever else we need."
