Stay In The Easy Lane/Confessionals

Day 10
"thekkady"

- So yeah, we got ourselves a pretty good swap, I'd say. Us outnumbering Periyars by 1 was good enough, but Michael's evac put us in an even better position - Anna will HOPEFULLY be likely to work with us, and HOPEFULLY we can safely split in case we need an idol or two flushed. After that, we'll have our numbers and will be able to throw out another Periyar and, if needed, Anna. Oh, yeah, a few challenges might be needed to be thrown in order to execute this plan and also save our lost ally, Julia. If we pull through with it, we might just have the numbers at merge.

"periyar"

- "TRIBAL SWAP!!!! And yes the Periyars have immunity. And I have Tucker with the idol who is trying to lead without much of a success but he is kinda getting the target off of me. I have Violet, with who I feel very well and I she the funnest person to be around out of everyone. Jacob is a solid partner. This is GOLDEN for me.

And we get Vikram with who I am kinda friends from the challenge, Patrick who is almost invisible and queen Julia on our tribe. Julia is GREAT. I am having a lot of fun with her. And she was very fast to kinda want to jump to Periyar tribe.

I kinda want to lose immunity so we can get Patrick out. But I am totally minvgling with Julia. Julia can be a game long ally. I am not feeling very confident about the Eggplant alliance since we will probably lose members from the other tribe. I have a great social game so far, I need to decide how it is going to play out. "

"periyar"

- FREAKING MICHAEL QUIT!

Day 11
"thekkady"

- "I had to start my entire idol search all over today, which sucks but I believe it's located in the same spot so at least there's that. I don't think I'll be able to find it if we lose the upcoming challenge, but I'm not just gonna..not guess, so yeah.

The worst thing is, even if we do find the idol, the Thekkady majority of 4 could easily split the vote between me and Asa, and flush it out before next tribal. and these things take way too long to find, so there's no way I could cough up a second idol, if there even IS a second idol.

Honestly, someone probably already has the Thekkady idol since they won the first reward challenge anyways.

Everything seems so pointless, why do I even bother :("

"thekkady"

- "I'm trying to warm up to my new tribe. Here are my thoughts.

I like Catherine, although she acts younger than her age as expressed by the xD emojis.

Nicolai is Russian, which is fascinating, and also horrifying.

Jake and Daulton are fucking nerds, and I mean that in the most offensive way possible.

I don't know Anna at all, so she is my favourite Thekkady so far.

I see no cracks, and even if I did I don't think I could actually make a move with any of them! "

"thekkady"

- "On second thought, I love Catherine. She is a sweetheart. If I have any chance on this tribe, it's with her. She's the only one who's made an effort to get to know me, so perhaps she needs me? and I DEFINITELY will help her take out whoever she pleases.

My dream alliance at the moment is myself, Asa, Catherine and uhhh Anna? I'll do anything though, I'll even EAT THIS ROCK. "

"thekkady"

- "The Immunity idol is my only friend at this point.

I've warmed up to my tribe now, and I actually feel bad for all the mean things I said earlier LMAO. It was in the heat of the moment because I felt so ripped off, this tribe is full of lovely people. However, they're not lovely enough to want to screw themselves to work with me.

I just hope that the fact that they'll still have a 3-2 advantage if they wanna pull of a blindside will sound appealing, and besides that I'll be spending my days looking for the idol and slaving away at these challenges.

I'm not even a person of faith, but I'm losing my religion! I'm still praying tho..."

Day 12
"thekkady"

- So I'm sitting pretty with 3 other old Thekkady's. My problem is i adore asa. So I'm trying to think of a way to keep her safe down the road that doesn't involve just voting off her other Periyar buddy, Sim. Sim is also trying to desperately strike deals at me that I might take. I just need 1 other person to vote with Sim, Asa and I for a blindside. Do I want to blindside and go against my original tribe? If that doesn't work I'm screwed. Or do I want to just stay in the easy lane and sit pretty with this OG Thekkady tribe..... We'll see! All I know is I wanna keep asa safe.

"thekkady"

- "Anna is Asa and I's saviour. This tribe has been pretty closed off, but she has been super easy to talk to and I appreciate that so much. She's a total badass, and our only hope, except in a shocking turn of events, she seems promising!!

Unlike Catherine, she has given me the time of day, and has genuinely tried to talk to me, which has been great because I've been looking for that this entire time.

I do believe she'd be willing to flip, if only we'd have one more person to do it...I have no idea who though. Whoever it is, Anna will have to convince them, because me and Asa have no say to influence anyone.

I've tried to express my desire to not have this game be stuck as Thekkady vs Periyar forever, which I genuinely mean, but I know that sounds kinda sketchy..

Anyways, if Anna goes through with this, I will value this alliance above the Eggplants, as they're long gone, and me and Asa were abandoned on the Thekkady beach.

Also I just realized, this entire confessional has been an Anna appreciation post, and that was all I really wanted to say <3"

"thekkady"

- I've decided to vote Sim. There is no point this early in making waves in the game and I have a pretty tight alliance as of now with my old tribe. We'll see what happens!
