This is written for the Open Novella Contest 2025 on Wattpad.

Primary prompt: 47 A famous singer and their pilot crash land on a tropical island. With no one else around, survival isn't their only challenge.

Secondary Prompt: 70 After stealing something vital from the city, you flee in a car, only to find a discarded human like android in the back seat. The android has a critical flaw-- and you must protect it from those who want it back.

There will be triggers for trauma in this work. Please be warned here as I will not make any further reference to them. These are used only to further character development.

Point of view is fluid in this work. Changes most often indicated by a break between paragraphs. I will make an attempt to make them obvious.
