Round 84: The Kidnapping of Tiffany Jamesson

PLAYERS: Isamu Fuwa, Quicksword Irene, Hajime Aikawa VS. Bucky Barnes, Daylight vis Lornlit, Inara Serra
LOCATION: Tycoons' Depot
GOAL: Assume and maintain custody of Tiffany Jamesson
WARNINGS: Kidnapping, attempted murder, sex work mentions
OTHER: OOC post for plotting and questions!

After traveling most of the day, the sun is starting to set when the two teams reach Tycoons' Depot. Who arrives first depends on how quickly the teams get up and organized that morning, and how hard they want to push their horses.

The active portion of the round doesn’t start until the next morning, anyway. After scouting around and making plans, everyone can enjoy a room at the Bullion Inn under the watchful eye of the Madame (for a crisp points price, of course), camp rough just outside town, or bully or bribe one of the locals into letting them borrow their home for the night. Looking around proves there are, in fact, a number of possibly empty houses around the town’s outskirts, if the players would like to brave one of those.

In the morning, it’s time to go. Tiffany Jamesson, a sixteen year old girl with a brilliant smile and auburn hair done up in ringlets, has horseback riding at nine in full-on cowgirl attire, lunch at noon and piano lessons at one in a yellow dress of frothy lace, a nap from three to four when the day is at its hottest, and then dinner with her father at six in a pretty pink affair before retiring for the night afterwards. When will the kidnappers strike? When will the protectors show their hand? The teams have three days in which to accomplish their goal. The clock is ticking.

Ryo wriggles out from under the trough and Fuwa would be well-served to pick him up and give him a cuddle; he's still trembling. "Want to help! Hajime would want to win!" And there's a little sniffle at that too.

Fuwa's not. Good. At being soft. He can barely manage being calm most days.

It's not much, but he still goes to lift the puppy form up and cradles him in one arm against his chest. Almost more like a sack of potatoes than how you would a dog, but he doesn't feel comfortable with both hands preoccupied. "Right. And we're gonna do our best to do it. We just need to find Irene and Tiffany."

Don't worry, Fuwa, Ryo hangs out with Hajime. He's well versed with guys who are absolutely terrible at being in touch with their softer sides! He snuggles right into that arm. He's still shaking, but it's a lot lessened now. "If wait until dark, I can help!" He doesn't really want to go now, and, besides, there are reasons for that. "Have owl form! Could go look all sneaky-like! But suspicious in the daytime."
