"Are ya jokin'?" he asked, sounding extremely crestfallen. This was just going from bad to worse way too fast. What next? The entire island going up in flames?
Jamal didn't notice Joli until he heard Antony speak. He turned his head, confused at first because he thought she was talking to him, but saw Joli's figure slowly approaching. Oh lovely...looked like a nice, bloody fight was what was next, not the island burning to cinders. He didn't say anything.

Joliette eyes the woman warily "No thankyou I've already had something to eat and drink." she hears the tone, but expects nothing less from Antony after their last 2 encounters. She stops near the fire but not within arms reach, she watches the flames dance on the fuel and then glances at the one she doesn't know "Have you guys seen anyone else?" she put little emotion in her voice, one way or another, she was attempting to avoid confrontation... if at all possible

The woman didn't comment on Joli's first statement, but raised her eyebrows at the question. This girl better not ask her for help.
"Loads. In fact, President Bush stopped by to check up on everything, shot down a helicopter because his daddy told him to, and as a result, caused two people to burn alive." Antony said rather calmly. Why did everyone seem to think she knew what the hell was going on with this place?
She had every intention of making this difficult, for the sole, selfish, reason that while Antony was being a snarky b***h, she was beginning to feel better.

Jamal had to struggle to hold in a snerk, as awful as it was, about the comment about the President. The fact that two people died wasn't funny, but the way that it was said...
"Uh, not really," he finally managed to say seriously. "You seen 'bout ev'ryone I seen...'cept I saw that Kim girl the otha' night. I ain't seen her since." Not a surprise really, if they were scattered all over the place.

Joliette held in a look of exasperation even if part of what Antony said seemed semi-serious. "Sure ok" she replied simply. She did believe what Jamal said as he spoke "Kim? So that makes .." she pulled open her bag and pulled out her laptop powering it up and pulling up her file as she stood there. "Awen, Lauren, Kim, You two, David, Me and ..." she peered down at the sleeping woman "Her, that doesn't seem like many" she mused quietly. She typed in Antony's words too with one hand, she had a suspicion that there was a hidden seriousness in it.

...Antony did have a really good point. How DID Joli seem to have items like that? Hell, if he had any idea this was going down, the b*****d would have attached every bong, pipe, booze bottle, piece of clothing, and a good porno mag to his body.
He eyed Joli expectantly, also wanting an answer. This...was somewhat suspicious...

"Everyone I have run into.." she started and shut off hte laptop stuffing it back into the bag "has had as little or as much as they went to sleep in yes, but I wasn't asleep nor was I even in mine and David's duplex when the explosion occured, I was heading down from the cliffs" she said simply "So I had these on me when I 'fell asleep' and I had them still in the same place I had them when I 'fell asleep' when I woke up out on the ocean, I do not question the logistics of any of these things. I just know I got a good photo of he explosion before putting my camera away and starting to head back"

"I think," Antony started in a sing song voice, "That only if you had rigor mortis would you have held onto both of them while someone was depositing you 'in the ocean'. Last time I checked, the ocean and expensive electronics never really were the Best Friends Forever."
Yep, Antony was with Jamal, this was quite suspicious.
"Unless you weren't unconscious that is..." She added smartly.

Jamal visibly o_O'ed and let the ladies do the talking. This was sort of strange...
He wasn't sure if he wanted to get into a fight, being in the situtation that he was in.

"One, yes I was unconscious, two I was on a piece of hte hull of the rental yacht I got here in that Moreau took apart and no I have no idea how I got there, three the strap was over my head so the bag was on one hip while the strap was on the other side's shoulder, and four, if I'm going to buy expensive equipment you better damned well believe I'm going to buy expensive carrying items, in this case a bag that is water resiliant if not nearly water proof" ok now she was getting defensive, if she knew wha the hell was going on, she certainly wouldn't have asked Antony or Jamal if they knew

"Touchy," she murmured, entirely not listening to her explanation at all. Nothing this girl said really meant a lick to Antony, and for all she cared, Godzilla could go eat the bark off a tree.
Smiling ruefully, the tattooed woman pushed the bangs from her face before tilting her head sideways against Jamal. "Just don't go near the helipad, you couldn't handle the wreckage."
Antony hoped that lizard girl's curiosity got the best of her and she went over to check it out. That's what one got for being nosey.

Jamal rolled his eyes, shading the motion with a hand so it wasn't outwardly visible, and sort of drifted into a semi-aware state. He was still hungry...wanted booze...and wanted a smoke. Sigh. This camping thing sucks balls.

"I don't even know where the helipad is so I cannot indulge you sorry. I came in off of this very beach" True to form she was curious, she had a feeling she'd find out at some point what was there, and beyond that it gave further insight to a previous statement the woman had made "Though I do have to say one never knows what another can or cannot handle"

Antony only smirked, eyes flicking towards the knife that lay next to her before she smiled sweetly, "Or what they're capable of ..."
And she just left it at that. Not like she would actually murder someone, but Joli probably thought that she was nuts anyways. Why not use it to one's advantage?
