_I can’t stand crab._

_Genuinely, why is it ALWAYS crab!? I have a dozen traps on every corner of this time island and yet all I ever get is crab._

Erin flips off a plane as it goes by, his days of finding logs and dragging them to make large a SOS (or three) are long gone. He hadn’t seen this island when he flew over, hadn’t even known there was an island here. It’s not on maps- not that that...

Two years of my life I’ll never get back and what do I get for it? A bunch of people who’ve never accomplished shit calling me a liar, a whack job, or an attention seeker. That actually might not be the worst of it though, because the people who believe me - I mean REALLY believe me think I owe it to them to answer every single asinine question they have. And apparently since I’ve been gone there’...

I used to be the best pilot the academy had ever seen—aced every exam, broke every record. No pun intended, but I passed with flying colors. I surprised everyone, earned their respect the only way I knew how—by giving them no other choice.

One of the youngest to graduate—and a woman, no less. In a field that never made it easy for people like me. The world doesn’t take kindly to a woman who refus...

THIS IS A FICTIONAL DIARY ENTRY BASED ON TRUE EVENTS

Tuesday,March 13,2012

Dear diary,

Today I’m piloting a flight from the Dominican Republic to New York. It’s my first time flying the plane, BN-2A MK. I’m meant to have 12 people on board including myself. If I’m honest I’m pretty nervous about it, you see, I’m flying over the so-called ‘Bermuda Triangle’. The Bermuda Triangle ...

730. It's been 730 days. The palm tree that bears the marks of time on a beach that's made of the stuff of hourglasses. It's ironic, really. To be surrounded by time but not feel its weight.

My skin should be saggier than this, but I noticed it the other day. I haven't changed. I mean, I have. I have new scars, freckles, and sun spots, but I'm still me—still stuck.

GODS! When will it end? My pri...

"Oh my God, guys! Breaking news out of the Popular Topic Zone: there was a statement released by the US Air Force about a sudden update regarding a missing pilot who flew into the Bermuda Triangle. Allegedly, pilot Scott Taegann flew out of his air base along the Georgia coastline on a routine mission roughly two and a half years ago and lost all contact after twenty-seven minutes. In between the ...

It’s been 2 years

All the fears

And the tears

But here we are

Not far

From where we began

First in the sand

Then the air

Without a care

Then we got lost

In the frost

How’s we get out

I’m full of doubt...

The storm had come out of nowhere, pouring rain quickly turned to hail. Hal and I could barely keep the plane under control.

Our radar and sensors were shot, static filled the radio. The plane rattled about horribly, turbulence rough as the waters below us.

Lydia, one of the stewardesses, walked into the cockpit right before a strong tempest hit us hard. The plane dipped, nose down towards the sea...

The following transcript is copied verbatim from the recording of (REDACTED) found on (REDACTED) in the waters off the coast of Bermuda:

_Hello? I hope this thing is recording. Someone else must have left this here … Maybe it will wash up one day. I think I’ve been here for … gosh, it must be two years now. I’ve been gone two years. And I don’t think I’ll ever be coming back. If somebody finds ...

I’m afraid you won’t like what I have to say.

You are very generous for hosting this party in my honor and assisting myself and my family as we reacclimate to normal life. We are truly grateful for your kind words and gestures, and I wish to repay you with my speech. For months now, you have waited patiently for this moment. You have many questions about my disappearance and you deserve some ans...
