Drama is not my favorite thing. Unfortunately, in these games, a lot of the time there's drama. In my first ORG, Survivor Twisted: Ecuador, I was targeted for drama a lot. Some of those times, I had absolutely done what people said I did, and other times I wasn't sure why I was being brought up at all.
Here I am, thinking that I was sitting pretty in my tribe and socially. I thought, surely I won't be the target of drama, at least not this early.
Boy was I wrong.
Remember when I said that Sierra was mad at me for telling Kim about her plans? Well, we finally talked. She's so pissed, I just... ugh. And the best part is that she's causing a lot of drama by spreading it around and telling everyone who will listen what a two-faced snake I am.
Here's the thing. I screwed up by telling Kim about it. I then screwed up for a second time by lying to Sierra and saying that I didn't, so now I look doubly bad because I lied about it and she knows that it was me. She didn't tell anyone else about it. I wish I had recognized that Sierra was testing my trustworthiness, and done the right thing and not told anyone, but yeah. That's a big deal. I lied about it when she first confronted me, and now I'm stuck lying even more and it's just a huge wreck. It's really not fun to play this game anymore, and I'm getting really discouraged that Sierra is attempting to discredit me across the whole game. It makes sense that she's doing that, and I would do the same thing in her shoes, but I'm just bummed that I lost a friend.
That's the issue. While I hate drama, I brought this on myself by choosing the wrong ally. Or at least, that's what I thought. I figured that Kim had sold me out to Sierra to gain herself some favor, but actually I know now what happened.
Erik told Sierra. Kim went to Erik with my info, presumably because she trusted him. Kim told me that her main alliance on old
Y'mra S'bor was Erik, Kelley, and her. So it makes sense that she trusted him. Unfortunately, she said my name when she told him, and then Erik (who was one of the 4 members of Sierra's ~big move~ club) told everyone. So I can't trust Erik or Sierra at this point, largely because they both know that I'm a liar. Which I didn't want to come out so early.
So basically, at this point my two main targets are
Erik and
Sierra. If I go to Tribal, and who knows whether I will, I will likely be attempting to take down one of them.
Yve is, I think, mad at me as well. I told Sierra that I might have told Yve about her plans, which was actually true, because I would normally have told Yve. Sierra interpreted that as me scapegoating Yve and that Yve actually told everyone about her plans, so I think I've got some ground to make up with her. Luckily, Yve is never online for me to work out these issues.
I think I'm okay with Austin. He was smart and told Sierra the truth about how he told Monica about her plans, after I told him about them, so I don't know. That's the problem with this whole situation, is that I think my trustworthiness across the board has taken a hit. I need to see where I stand with my original
Marehemu alliance, largely because they're now my only alliance in the game. My other two allies were Kim and Sierra, and in one fell swoop I managed to lose both of them. I hate this.
The one bright spot in all of this is that Monica played her idol. I'm not sure how re-hiding idols works, but if an idol is re-hidden and I can use my old masks, I'm in a great spot to get the second
Marehemu Idol. We'll have to wait and see on this one.
