~♥FORTY♥~

[Action]
[Shikamaru and Masaomi have tag-teamed to procure the items. Their quest begins later on, as they allowed for a number of days for preparation and quietly looking around/enjoying the sights before then.
At Shikamaru's suggestion, the first days of the scavenger hunt are spent in observation rather than gathering items. CJ let it drop there was a five day allotment and that they had to keep the items the entire time; waiting just seemed smart.

So they get started on the second to last day. At the Space Opera they have some Tang and trade something that is distinctly not Tang for some ray guns. For the robot, they found something even more effective than an off switch. Who knew flights of stairs would be so deadly?

From there they swipe a jetpack and head to the Shogunate. Neither one of them are manly enough to take on a samurai in pitched combat, so they resort the theft. Or rather Hidan does. While the angry samurai are off looking for him, they'll meet and greet some kappa. Masaomi uses the powers of meta to get the water from their heads.

In Gangland, they dress up some energy drinks as booze in exchange for the tommy guns. While the gangsters there are distracted by that, Linda uses the powers of attraction to get some studebaker keys.

At The Nile, having caught on to the priest's weakness to cute things, they take advantage of small children for the daggers. They face the traps for the treasure with the powers of Rube Goldberg.

The Ice Age is last. Their grand plan to defeat a smilodon?? ...feed it. The cavemen going to war, meanwhile, are happy to exchange their bone spears for the retractable spears Hidan Shikamaru has for them. With little time left until the scavenger hunt ends, the rest is a popcorn fest.

Threads for seeing them pull off any of these ten capers or being involved in them are first-come, first-serve (put the item in the subject head or body of the reply if you want) but if you want to just encounter them in the periods between any of them in any zone or after they complete them all, hanging out somewhere... maybe even run into them while lost in C1 if they're at their apartment, those are unlimited. As this is a joint post, all replies will be from Masaomi and Shikamaru ([personal profile] endgames)]

Whoah! So squiggly line, vertical squiggly line, fish, bird, creepy head guys means thaaat... That means the squiggly lines over there with the cross and the blocky thing are talkin' about... Aah, I get it now.

[Yo, welcome to the treasure chamber. Those traps were a blast to get by, huh? There's a pretty snazzy looking ruby red jewel sitting on a pedestal in the middle of the chamber next to a sarcophagus. There are stone statues lining the walls and there are hieroglyphs everywhere. Pascal has been here for sometime now trying to work out what all the pretty pictures say while rushing around the chamber with a book on hieroglyphs in her hands. She's pretty engrossed in what she's doing, so Masaomi and Shikamaru go completely unnoticed.]
endgames: (Watch)

Pascal --> Shikamaru --> Masaomi

[personal profile] endgames 2012-11-29 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[So after what was probably an overly complex method to get past the traps into here, the dynamic duo has finally reached the treasure chamber!

Since their apartment is in this area, Shikamaru ditched his costume for whatever came closest to plainclothes in this era he could find that he felt more comfortable in. While he notes Pascal is in here, he's also unusually focused and only concerned with what they came here for. Rude.]


Don't be hasty in here. If it looks obvious [he eyes that ruby] it's probably booby-trapped.

castbytheglyph: (Can I hold onto expectations)

Pascal --> Shikamaru --> Masaomi

[personal profile] castbytheglyph 2012-11-30 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
[Pascal is rocking this outfit, sans the bangles and the material running between them. She also managed to pick up this awesome hat that she took a liking too when she went off to research hieroglyphs in the first place. It looks very snazzy, oozes adventure and does nothing to compliment her outfit at all.]

Hey guys, try not to stand there, there or there. And don't touch the statues. Actually, better just tip-toe around everything you see.

[It's hard to see where she's saying not to stand when she's still completely absorbed in the markings on the wall and is just waving to a vague part of the treasure room where something might happen.]
endgames: (Dull)

[personal profile] endgames 2012-11-30 02:35 pm (UTC)(link)
--like I said. Anything obvious.

[Which, like the statues, is more than half of what's in here.

Her advice doesn't make a lot of sense without that, no, but Shikamaru's able to pick out the vague tells of the other traps with that minimal direction. He motions to each one, pointing them out more thoroughly for Masaomi and Linda's sakes.]


So the writing on the wall doubles as an instruction manual, Pascal?

[ And what better small child to utilize than one they both know? Ikki's spotted the pair, anyway, and she'll be running over to say hello, decked out in required costume thanks to the rules of the experiment. Soren's with her, too, which shouldn't be at all surprising. ]

Sifu! Shikamaru! What're you doing? Are you playing the game? Oh oh oh or are you exploring? I've been making a map!
endgames: (this idiocy...)

Ikki --> Shikamaru --> Masaomi

[personal profile] endgames 2012-11-29 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shikamaru's is so un-noteworthy it doesn't even get a link.]

--I could've asked you that if you hadn't already explained. At least we have the excuse of living in this area.
breezing: (+ formal clothes glee.)

Ikki --> Shikamaru --> Masaomi

[personal profile] breezing 2012-11-29 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Have a frown, Shikamaru. That's not at all the happy greeting she was expecting! ...Yeah, that lasts for all of two seconds before she's back to grinning cheerfully. Soren would greet them, but he's overhead and shows no interest in landing. ]

I've already done my area! And the one with all the people in suits and guns and stuff. Actually, that one kinda reminds me of Republic City in a way, you know? Not completely, but a little bit! Maybe 'cause it's more city-like than Luceti normally is. Look look look I have it here!

[ HERE SHIKAMARU HAVE A CRAYON MAP OF THE SHOGUNATE which is actually pretty accurate if you understand Ikki's landmarks which can be people as well as places. There are also a lot of extra flowers. She's started working on the Egypt section now, although the sand is pink in her rendition. ]

Gangland - Keys, featuring not he who was expected

[personal profile] wildbluevagner 2012-11-29 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Once they leave one establishment, they'll come across a sharply-dressed demon leaning against a lamppost dramatically, as if he were waiting for them.]

Word on the street is there's a pair of guys looking for some keys.

[Of course, while they were in whatever building they were in, they might have gotten the sense that someone was nearby eavedropping on their conversation and very easily could have picked up the sound or smell of the bamf as he teleported out here.]
endgames: (Quit it)

Kurt --> Shikamaru --> Masaomi

[personal profile] endgames 2012-11-29 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shikamaru gives the guy one look, then casually turns his attention to fixing the cuffs of his snazzy suit.]

Yeah. We left them in there.
wildbluevagner: (lighten up man)

Kurt --> Shikamaru --> Masaomi

[personal profile] wildbluevagner 2012-11-30 08:01 am (UTC)(link)
[They are clearly snazzily-dressed young men. And that clearly resembles a certain cartoon mouse on that one guy's shoulder. But Kurt steps from the lamppost and strolls towards them with his arms spread out. He still has to try to look as cool as he can.]

voidseeing: (Shell)

Let's go for kappa hunting in the Shogunate!

[personal profile] voidseeing 2012-12-05 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Having spent a considerable portion of his life in Japan, Gai is familiar with all of the folklore surrounding kappa-- something that is definitely going to come in handy for this. He certainly looks the part right now, hair tied back in a high ponytail and a jar dangling from a makeshift rope belt.

When he spots the other two prize hunters, he grins, nodding his head just slightly in greeting.]


Oh? I can't say I'm surprised to see the two of you here.
endgames: (Riveting)

Gai --> Shikamaru --> Masaomi

[personal profile] endgames 2012-12-05 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shikamaru's looking distinctly more ninja-ish, surprise surprise.]

I am.

[He notably already has his (samurai) sword. Sigh. This was saved for last because Masaomi said he had an idea that would make it easy.]
voidseeing: (So I'm about to make you a deal)

Gai --> Shikamaru --> Masaomi

[personal profile] voidseeing 2012-12-08 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
Having that much trouble with the kappa?

[He doubts it, though. Masaomi is Japanese; he should be familiar with the tales.]

[Meanwhile in the desert.

Raiding tombs, or just wandering the ruins? A familiar silver haired professor can be found here, in this manner of dress, with far too much energy that defies the temperature. She is carrying around a large bag of collected artifacts wherever she goes, but there may be various traps that were sprung in her wake. She's not very cautious - just lucky.

She doesn't linger too long in any particular areas, though she sometimes comes back around to revisit them - studying the patterns on the walls and cackling to herself in glee.]
endgames: (Ticked)

[personal profile] endgames 2012-12-08 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well they got what the treasure they needed out of the tombs with Pascal. Now they just need to head back to the apartment and grab two of those spears he stole from Hidan for a trade in the Ice Age--]

You can't be serious.

[Goddammit, who came along and set off all these traps while they were in there?? Two giant swinging axes, a spike pit, and are those scorpions?

He looks more annoyed than threatened by these, but it's the crux of it all. 8|]
wise_maiden: (there is something curious about this)

[personal profile] wise_maiden 2012-12-10 01:31 pm (UTC)(link)

[Over in the Ice Age because I realized that would be easier to thread, this task is perhaps the simplest even if it requires the most patience. Getting the Smilodon teeth comes first; you have to wait for them to come to you for what he has planned.

They've probably been waiting for nearly an hour, but it's paying off now. From the safety of a niche made in a cave wall, he can spot two smilodons approaching the large slabs of meat left on the ice.]
