The rookie Groupchat

Hypothetical Question

Lucy Chen:
Okay, guys, hypothetical question: if you had to be stranded on a deserted island with one of us, who would you pick?

Angela Lopez:
Nyla. She'd have a survival plan before we even crashed.

Nyla Harper:
Thanks, but I'd prefer not being stuck babysitting any of you on an island.

Bailey Nune:
I'd pick Tim. He's resourceful and grumpy enough to scare off predators.

Tim Bradford:
I'm not a scarecrow.

John Nolan:
Actually, you kind of are. You'd probably glare at a shark, and it'd swim away.

Aaron Thorsen:
He'd turn the island into his own boot camp.

Celina Juarez:
I'd pick Lucy. She's resourceful and wouldn't let the morale drop.

Lucy Chen:
Thank you, Celina! See, someone believes in me.

Nyla Harper:
Positive vibes won't catch dinner or build shelter.

Lucy Chen:
Why does everyone underestimate me? I can learn survival skills!

Angela Lopez:
Sure, but while you're learning, I'm sticking with Nyla. She'd probably invent a desalination machine out of coconuts.

Tamara Colins:
I wouldn't pick anyone. I'd just make a raft and leave.

John Nolan:
That's ambitious. Have you ever built anything?

Tamara Colins:
I'm young. I've got time to figure it out.

Celina Juarez:
You'd probably try to make a TikTok tutorial on raft building and forget to actually leave.

Tamara Colins:
And go viral for it.

Bailey Nune:
Alright, second question: who's most likely to cry first on the island?

Angela Lopez:
Aaron.

Aaron Thorsen:
Wow. Rude. Accurate, but rude.

Celina Juarez:
Lucy might cry, but then she'd turn it into an inspirational speech.

Lucy Chen:
Excuse me, I'm a leader. I'd rally the team.

Nyla Harper:
Leader of what? Finding a volleyball to talk to?

John Nolan:
I think Lucy could lead. As long as she doesn't accidentally eat something poisonous.

Lucy Chen:
Gee, thanks for the support, Nolan.

Tim Bradford:
I'd cry out of frustration.

Aaron Thorsen:
Plot twist: Tim becomes the emotional glue holding us together.

Tim Bradford:
This conversation is officially over.

Angela Lopez:
Not until we agree that Nyla would outlast us all and start a thriving society on the island.

John Nolan:
I feel like Nyla wouldn't even notice she was stranded. She'd just handle it like a Tuesday.

Bailey Nune:
Meanwhile, Tim would build a fortress out of driftwood and glare at anyone who tried to enter.

Tamara Colins:
I'd vlog the whole thing. "Day 7: Tim growled at me for touching his coconut stash."

Lucy Chen:
And I'd be Googling, "how to survive on a deserted island without Nyla."

Celina Juarez:
Step one: don't get stranded.

John Nolan:
Step two: make sure Tim isn't in charge.

Tim Bradford:
Step three: survive without Nolan trying to organize a book club.

John Nolan:
A book club is a great way to pass the time!

Angela Lopez:
Unless Nyla bans you from her island kingdom.

Nyla Harper:
That's already the plan.

Tim Bradford:
You're all doomed without me.

Lucy Chen:
We're doomed with you, Tim.
