We Are Our Avatars IX: Act V: The Sabotage of the Scandolous Saurian Scoundrels (Open)

[Chungus]

Yeul gave a nod in response to Victoria, then stepped inside the room when Sophia said it was alright for her to do so. "I made you this." Yeul stated, holding out the small bouquet of flowers out to Sophia once she was near enough to do so. The flowers were of varrying sizes and colours. "You said you would like to see a bouquet I made once? Here you are." She said with the faintest of smiles on her face. "It is not much, and I could not find any flowers that were red in colour, but I hope the smells will lift your spirits some."

"I do not see how it would be 'rude' to leave a machine. But your first and second points are sound in logic." Caius stated, looking from Joel, to Yeul. He didn't bother to argue against the point more, both because it would seem odd to do so, and that he considdered it might not be a bad thing to have the ship move away from where the knights were supposed to meet it. This removed the chance of an encounter where Caius didn't want it.

 

[Zepherus14]

Sophia was a little speechless when she saw the flowers, with her mind going a mile a minute with all the things that had happened, she hadn't noticed the obvious smell of the flowers. Her eyes grew just a little bit more eased as she reached out to take the bouquet. "Thank you~" She said, still sounding a little weary but managing to let her appreciation known. "Even if they aren't red, I still get to look at a bunch of nice pinks and such." She commented, putting her face up to the flowers to smell them.

"Here you smell them too if you want." She offered Victoria, letting her have a smell if she liked.

Through this Hans was told the story that they were going to head to New York, from whomever that wasn't quite clear.

 

[Kirke]

You say that surely there must be a better way than searching a place that has already been confirmed the knights are not. It is not far-fetched, you say, to think that the knights have some way of teleporting. After all, they have gone to this universe to find Sophia.

 

[Chungus]

"I am glad you like it." Yeul said, her smile brightening a little upon seeing Sophia's appreciation. "Fortune willing, I will get to make you a better one, one day." She added, clasping her hands together infront of her.

 

[Zepherus14]

Sophia nodded as she listened to Yeul. "Maybe you could teach me how then. Maybe I could show you a thing or two about carving wood?" She eventually suggested, still sounding rather melancholic but still better than she had.

 

[Slenn]

"And we can only know for sure if we trace their steps. They aren't from this world. That also means that just teleporting randomly across the globe doesn't necessarily mean success for them, because they hardly have any idea about this world at all. I'm not going to assume that they can teleport until I know through evidence that they can. They burned a hole through a thick wall at the top floor as an escape route. If they did that, then why wouldn't they use their teleport? Perhaps their teleport has a cooldown. I don't know. But I want to know for myself as a hands on experience."

<color=purple>"So what would be the other option? Wait until the knights just pop up out of nowhere? We can't just rely on the knights alone."

 

[Kirke]

You say that, considering the knights wanted people to contact them with information, there should be some way to do just that. Then, a trap could be set up at a favourable location. That seems like a better idea to you than going for a manhunt in a large city.

 

[Chungus]

"I would like that. I am uncertain if I would be any good with it, but it would be an interesting experience, regardless." Yeul responded, giving a small nod at the begining of her sentance. She looked to Sophia with a small smile for a while longer before saying, "I shall leave you two be, now," looking back and forth between Sophia and Victoria to indicate she was speaking to them both. Having said this, Yeul backed out of the room, pulling the door shut as she went.

 

[Slenn]

"Can't we do that by asking the people around New York City? Who would we talk to about who contacted the knights? How does anyone get in contact with these knights anyway? Perhaps there were eye witnesses that saw their trail."

<color=purple>"And not everyone in this world is familiar with this interdimensional bounty store that pops up."

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus, watching the debate, interjected. "We already have some people staying behind with Sophia. Split the party. Some guard her, others investigate where these knights came in."

 

[Kirke]

You snap your fingers and say that there is an idea, quickly following up by asking if the bounty store has been checked for a bounty on Sophia. Presumably they must have a way to contact the knights if that is the case.

 

[Slenn]

"Joel is the closest one that has one of those bounty posters on him."

 

[Kirke]

You ask EMily if, while you prepare your ship for takeoff, she could check if the bounty shop could be used to lure the knights into a trap. It'd spare everyone a long flight if possible.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Joel moved from the cockpit of Dave's ship, to the entrance, possibly making him visible to those in Shara's ship.

 

[Slenn]

"I'll go ahead to the bounty shop." She turned around to find Joel. "Hello there, Joel. Can we borrow the bounty poster you got?"

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Joel held out the bounty poster to EMily. [color=003399]"What do you need it for?"[/color] he asked.

 

[Slenn]

"We need to check the poster if there's any way to contact the knights. And to see if anyone has contacted them."

 

[Demonjazz]

Eric had just sat down and played on his phone, waiting for everybody to finally get ready to leave.
When Samus said her suggestion, the Latino man had perked up. "Perhaps then you and me shall go help this Sophia of ferrets!"

 

[ShindoL Shill]

[color=003399]"The poster says to give information to the bounty store, and they'll pass it on to the knights."[/color] Joel explained, indicating the part of the poster that stated it. [color=003399]"And I asked if anyone had contacted them; they won't tell me, because I might be an accomplice."[/color]

 

[Slenn]

"Could we arrange a meeting with a knights, like Shara suggested. Set up a trap for them by setting a time and a place to 'deliver' Sophia?"
