Valentine's Day Mission [OPEN TO ALL]

Who: (Future)Trunks Briefs ([personal profile] light_of_willpower) and you!
What: Of COURSE Trunks is going to go to Ancient Greece and try and help retrieve Cupid's bow and arrows. It's not going to be easy though.
Where: Non-fiction-History-section, Ancient Greece
When:Valentine's Day
Warnings: ...fanservice?


Scenario 0: Research

Trunks wasn't kidding when he'd said he had no knowledge of Greece or anywhere like it. Which meant, even if they were in a hurry, he was still going to take an hour at least and go get a primer. Running through the halls, getting some direction and then heading for History. Time to get some basic information on customs and culture, who these gods were, and so on if they were supposed to 'blend' in.

Scenario 1: Hate Arrows

This had not been what Trunks was expecting, not least of which because of how he was dressed. He'd been assured his clothing was appropriate given he was a warrior... But it was definitely not what was used to. At least he was able to take his sword, even if he'd be trying to blend in.

Heading through the portal, it wasn't far to find things had already gotten bad. People fighting with each other, and thank Kami it was farmers and villagers. Children fighting each other with rocks and sticks against their parents, small brawls of adults of both genders, and he sighed to himself. Okay, time to start cracking some heads. He could knock them out, and that'd stop the fighting right? Just had to defend himself too.

Which meant, unless it was needed to parry, he kept the sword at his back sheathed as he waded into the fray.

Scenario 4: SO CLOSE

Trunks had managed to meet up with some of the other Library-people, and they'd been so close! The tangle of chaos as some people loved and others hated, and everyone argued and fought had been a mess. So far he'd managed to avoid most trouble, but this group of citizens was too large to handle on his own. Not and be 'discreet' about it. Good thing they went in a group in the city—but they must've just missed the culprit!

Scenario 7: Wandering around

This is the open option if you want to encounter Trunks while running around trying to deal with retrieving arrows and bow. He's at least dressed time-period appropriately (minus the shield and helmet above) and did some research before coming here, but this is definitely not his favorite situation to be in. (Darn fussy Gods....)

"Right."

It was an energy-intensive spell all the same; however, if she wanted to get this done in a timely manner for both of them she'd have to handle all of the civilians' memories at once.

"Well, like calls to like after all. Compared to the memory-wipe, it'll be simple. Might need more than just a few minutes' breathing room after this next spell before I can do it, though."

Nita nodded, more than a little relieved at the change in plans.

"Got it."

When she was done, she accepted that hand, getting to her feet with a minimum of unsteadiness.

"Can't think of any overwhelming cons to that, no."

Aside from the possibility of getting struck by an arrow, but Nita figured that there was a chance of that whether they went it apart or together.
