[OPEN]

Who: Vivienne and YOU
When: 3/29 onwards at various dates
Where: Capablanca
What: Vivienne's taking up the ol' Obligatory Beach Episode. She can't swim, so unfortunately, she's staying away from the water, but she's hunting around for leads, and will eventually come across something of worth.
Rating: PG-13 for possible violence? Will change accordingly if the need arises.

A: 3/29

[After a period of skulking around in taverns, back alleys, establishments even Vivienne would consider shady, with no luck, it now seems fortune is smiling upon her, she's been tipped off regarding the attempt to murder "Frankie" Corsi, and now she's hanging around the waterside, waiting. For what, she doesn't know. Maybe for Frankie to appear. Maybe for his lover to appear. Maybe for another Hero who's caught on to a similar lead.

It doesn't really matter, because if you're close enough to her, she'll be trying to get your attention.]


Have you heard anything of interest?

[Because she sure has, and hey... might be a good idea to collaborate on this.]

B: 3/30

[She hadn't been sure what to expect when Feliciano informed her of a "Black Lightning". Vivienne had come to the conclusion it was something like a code name - no assassin would be foolish enough to use their real name, after all - but her's was aptly chosen. She's quick on her feet, much faster than Vivienne would ever have given her credit for. It isn't that she's unable to keep up with the assassin, but bearing a weapon strictly intended for close range isn't much use if you can't actually catch up.

As the two weave through the crowds, Vivienne makes out a flash of white uniform out the corner of her eye, and though the distance between herself and Black Lightning increases as she slows down, maybe having a second person help her out will counter that.]


Come with me. I need your help.

[It isn't much of an explanation, but look, that can come later. Hopefully wearing the uniform of a fellow Hero is enough of a reason.]

C: 3/31

[After the successful chase from the day before, Vivienne's now the owner of one (1) ambiguous clue. Is it the symbol of a cult? One of the families? The symbol of one of the many establishments around town? She doesn't really have any way of knowing, and asking around about it seems a quick way to land yourself in trouble in these parts, so what's she supposed to do?

Poke around the library and see if it holds any greater meaning, of course. So there Vivienne is, seated at a large table with an array of books open. Some are about symbols, some are about language, some are historical accounts and some... seem to be fiction? "The King of the Rings"? That doesn't seem too relevant.]


D: WILDCARD

[Wanna do something completely different? Feel free to hit me with it, at any location in Capablanca, and at whatever date best suits you! Alternatively, send me a PM or a PP at [plurk.com profile] paako and we can work something out.]

3/30!!

[Vietnam didn't know that Feliciano has been going around ever since she met up with him and Galatea, but here she is anyway, walking around and trying to investigate for a little bit.

But she swore there were people running and she went over to look, only to see a fellow Hero require her assistant.]


What do you need?
hoasen: (echo)

[personal profile] hoasen 2016-04-12 04:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[She follows her gaze to see the other figure, and knew that they were meant to catch her. Vietnam nods in agreement.]

An assassin? Alright, I will assist you. When we take them down, do they have to be alive?

[She's already transforming her oar into her sniper rifle.]
hoasen: (cloudless)

[personal profile] hoasen 2016-04-15 08:05 am (UTC)(link)
[And it sure changed until something different! At least as a rifle, it doesn't look like an odd weapon like it did as an oar.]

Alright. I'll try to aim for somewhere that wouldn't kill her. [Legs.]

When you are ready! [She follows Vivienne's instructions as soon as they are directed to her.]
hoasen: (did I leave the cat in the oven...)

[personal profile] hoasen 2016-04-16 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[Fortune visits the brave, or in this case it was just a great coincidence. She follows after Vivienne immediately, nodding in agreement as she moves.]

If she didn't see me, then yes, I can relocate myself and you try to push her into a corner. [She taps the scope.] It is possible.
hoasen: (echo)

[personal profile] hoasen 2016-04-19 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[No more input other than--] Alright, I will be on the roofs.

[And she makes for the nearest building that has an outside flight of stairs, climbing and racing upwards, until she's able to traverse across the closely situated rooftops.]
hoasen: (NO YOU CANNOT PUT THAT THERE)

[personal profile] hoasen 2016-04-24 05:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[Through her scope, Vietnam is able to see where Vivienne is going, and it helps her situate herself in a good position. She knows where Vivienne is heading now, so she races there faster, moving to a spot where she can setting her rifle and snipe from afar. It's actually eye-opening to see how Vivienne handles this, leading the assassin towards her.

She can see the figure now, and so with this being a clean and easy shot? She shoots. On a normal day, her target should've went down.

Vietnam frowns. This was not a shot she could miss.]

It's the beach and you're not wearing a bathing suit?

[Dust feels at ease enough with Vivienne to tease her. And it clearly is teasing, because Dust sure hasn't changed his outfit in the slightest.]

Interesting like how?
mithrarin: (smile)

[personal profile] mithrarin 2016-04-11 03:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I hear you wear bathing suits at the beach. [....he can't resist. Sorry, Fidget Viv.]

[But now it's his turn to be more serious.]
I haven't heard anything specific. But I'm guessing you have.
mithrarin: (smile)

[personal profile] mithrarin 2016-04-13 03:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I can do both. I'm very versatile. [Considering he certainly isn't wearing a bathing suit and, oh yeah, never takes his hatoff, she can return fire in kind if she likes. Or thinks about it.]

What's going on?

That depends, a bit, on what you define as interesting, Strawberry-san. -That was her nickname now. She was never getting rid of it.

Kasen was there on the very same tip, but also a genuine interest in meeting Miss Galatea. Everything about her and her lover intrigued the artist in him, their tale together something truly beautiful, and one nearing a potentially tragic ending that he aimed to stop, as well as get some revenge of his own.-

Changing it entirely would be a good place to start. -He laughs, not being very serious, but enjoying her exasperation anyways.-
liberal_arts: (you clever devil you)

[personal profile] liberal_arts 2016-04-15 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
If it really truly bothers you, I will stop. But I don't think it's such a bad thing.
liberal_arts: (a motherfuckin selfi-ologist)

-Kasen blinked a bit.-

... Assetto doppio?

A type of vinegar used as a condiment in most Italian cooking. I'm particularly fond of it with Caprese salads. -So it was just Kasen being Kasen, then.-
liberal_arts: (time's up let's hurry)

[personal profile] liberal_arts 2016-04-23 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Not a bit. -Nice try, tho.-

[ It's in Weissmann's interests to sit and read, both for looking up information about this new world and because he just enjoys reading. He's not exactly allergic to sunlight, but he's certainly more at home in an archive than anything else.

He doesn't even look up when Vivienne piles books everywhere, though he makes note of it. He does, however, make note of some of the books.

He picks up one of them, viewing it with only mild interest. Fiction has never been his strong suit, admittedly.
]

My, are you going to read all of those in one day? You must be quite a fan of literature!
fadetoweiss: (❋ thorn-apple)

[personal profile] fadetoweiss 2016-04-16 12:29 am (UTC)(link)
[ He puts the book back down, shuffling his own pile of books. It's smaller, but the books are a lot thicker. And all non-fiction, too. History, geography... ]

Ah, are you a scholar, then? Well met!

What's the purpose of your research, if I might ask? [ He's all curiosity and enthusiasm. It's not entirely faked, but his bouncy personality is. ]
