WEEK 2 DAY 5: MISSION

[wonderful_mods]

Mission: "Free the Black Rose from the Hydra's grasp."
Time Limit: Medium
Noise Plane: Solo
Wall Instructions: Key walls around the church, other walls as you see fit. Do not use Noise as a wall clearing condition. Harriers may still attack players with Noise.
Wall Rewards: Tin Pin Thrift
Reaped Rewards: Lovely Beam
Mission Rewards: Black Rose



[Well. Nobody did erase the GM last week, did they? Even if they did, she obviously had some trick up her sleeve, as she's definitely skulking around town... in several places, even. She's obviously been demoted, as well, judging by the scowl on her face. She doesn't seem to be harrying today - another reason for the scowl, judging by how aggressive she was at the end of last week. The reapers have a strange set of instructions as well - obviously, the goal to this mission isn't combatative.

And what's with guarding the church? There's nothing of note there.]

I'm fine. [Neku's not a very good liar.]

[notsogrimreaper]

Really? You don't sound fine... you can tell me if something's upset you.

[needsmorezippers]

Just... still annoyed about yesterday.

[notsogrimreaper]

Oh. Yeah... it was a little scary... Everyone is okay, though. I think.

[needsmorezippers]

I know. But it shouldn't have even been a mission. [He has a thing about involving the RG, ok.]

[notsogrimreaper]

No.. it was too dangerous. The RGers could have been hurt.

[needsmorezippers]

[He's pretty sure some very nearly were.] ...How are you doing? [diversion!]

[notsogrimreaper]

...I-I'm okay. A little shaken up. Just making sure everyone's safe now.

[needsmorezippers]

That's good, I guess.

[notsogrimreaper]

Yeah... I should have paid more attention... noticed the signs.

[needsmorezippers]

It's not anything you did. No one knew what was going to happen.

[notsogrimreaper]

I know... I'm still on the side that is responsible for it, though.

[needsmorezippers]

What do you mean?

[notsogrimreaper]

Well... we're Reapers... and the ones running the Game did this, and we work for them.

[needsmorezippers]

We didn't decide this was a good idea.

[notsogrimreaper]

No... I know we didn't. I-It's stupid for me to think like this, ignore me.

[needsmorezippers]

It's fine. I... kind of understand. [he feels bad too.]

[notsogrimreaper]

... I knew you would understand, Neku-kun. You're a nice person.

[needsmorezippers]

[you keep calling him that. Still not used to it.]

Do you get today's mission?

[notsogrimreaper]

Not really. I remember in Greek mythology, the Hydra was some kind of monster... I don't know, I wasn't paying much attention in that class.

[Goodness, Ryoji, you're disappointing your relatives.]

[needsmorezippers]

Yea. Black Rose is a name of a pin, but... it could also just be a black rose, I guess.

[notsogrimreaper]

Ah, really? What does the pin do?

[needsmorezippers]

It can make your opponent's easier to hit harder.

[notsogrimreaper]

That sounds pretty useful! Hm... I don't know what it would have to do with a Hydra, though.

[needsmorezippers]

Neither do I.
