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.

Still, what's done is done, she supposes. "Tiffany. Do you want me to fight our way out, or would you rather we go with them? I know you have been less than happy with us as a whole."
(She probably should have asked Tiffany before she'd refused for her, but this assignment has been more like a weird form of play-acting, and Irene has never been all that good with play-acting.)

Glad to have an excuse, Daylight powers down his arc energy and crosses his arms over his chassis. "An acceptable compromise," he states with a loftiness he struggles to keep on his face. He does an elaborate half-bow, adding in (what he thinks is) an incredibly evil-sounding voice, "Crime does pay but only if we have the hostage in one piece. I would hate to lose on the-"
What's the bad guy word for this?
"-payout over you getting harmed." Nailed it.
