EVENT LOG: SCAVENGER HUNT

[lucetimods]

Who: All you scavenger hunters!
What: Scavenging and other fantabulousness, I suppose.
When: November 24th to 28th
Where: The whole village! And yet also all over time and space...
Summary: See this post for more info.
Rating: P for Points! (Keep it PGish, folks. Anything worthy of a higher rating can be brought to your appointments posts.)

As announced by CJ, the village's immediate environs are divided up according to this map. There are five areas: the Nile, Ice Age, Space Opera, Shogunate, and Gangland. Time-and-place appropriate architecture and conjured up NPCs exist in each area.

Don't forget the scavenger hunt! While actually finding things is ultimatly optional, you can find more information on the hunt here. If you want to claim a reward from the hunt, be sure to link at least two related threads on the new rewards claims post.

Finally, here's a quick rundown of the objects:
- In THE NILE: A ceremonial dagger and a piece of Pharoah's treasure
- In GANGLAND: A tommy gun and a set of car keys
- In ICE AGE: A bone spear and a smilodon's tooth
- In SPACE OPERA: a raygun and part of a robot
- In SHOGUNATE: a samurai sword and water from a kappa's head

Happy hunting!

Day 1

[yourhatred]

Hn...

[That sure is a cave he's woken up in.

After sharinganing it up to get a better feel for what's happened, he rises to dress himself in...

Okay, he can live without the furs. But he's also freezing. He doesn't want to use up too much energy, but little help from the resident fire spirit for warmth might happen every now and then.

The utter lack of shock he shows for everything won't be a surprise anyone who knows him, though.]

We will need to make sure the cats are situated.

Day 1

[deathsdoctor]

[Law, aside from the initial shock of BRRRR... is beginning to adjust. He's certainly stopped shivering and actually looks in his element.

Speaking of the cats, they are complaining loudly about their heaters leaving the 'nest' so to speak, and have curled around each other miserably in a desperate search for warmth.]

... yes. This is not good for them. ... maybe we should move them to a warmer part of the enclosure if we can't guarantee continuous heat and safety for them.

[yourhatred]

[If Itachi knew much about earth history, he might have suggested somewhere in the Nile.]

I'm sure that could be arranged with acquaintances in other parts of town. They may have to be locked up for a time, but it's better than the alternative.

[deathsdoctor]

No kidding. I wonder if Katara would mind taking them in. Or Lupin?

[yourhatred]

Either option is viable. It's simply a matter of their availability.

[deathsdoctor]

I'll call them up then.

[... where is his journal?]

[yourhatred]

[That question is on Itachi's mind as well as he quietly searches for his.

Having the house changed around on them is so terribly inconvenient.]

[deathsdoctor]

... oh, this is ridiculous.

[... finally. A journal. No telling who's it is yet. It's in a hollow covered partly by a lid of rock. Must be the caveman equivalent of a dresser.]

Found one of them. [He'll just force that lid aside to get at the stuff underneath.]

[yourhatred]

Hn.

[At least they'd had some warning, and he'd been able to store up the garden again. He never would have assumed that he'd be using scrolls to store plants this often.]

It would not have surprised me if they'd decided to keep them hidden for the duration of this event.

[deathsdoctor]

[This is why he's getting you a greenhouse, aside from seeing firsthand the difficulties of winter gardening. That and a request to learn how to at least unseal scrolls, given so much of their stuff his kept in them at some point or another.]

Me neither. [Handing the book over.] It's yours. I think I'm going to have to cheat to find mine. [Said as he forms a beach ball sized energy sphere in his hand.]

[yourhatred]

[Itachi takes the offered book and steps back, allowing Law room.

It's a shame that contacting the pirate on his journal while it's closed won't cause it to light up or make a sound to be located more easily.]

[deathsdoctor]

[No need, the sphere doesn't get any bigger.

-Pop-

One book in his hand. And the sound of hidden things tumbling as the object is removed and replaced by air.]

... uh... [Okay, he hopes nothing is broken now.] ... I'll just make those calls now.

[yourhatred]

[It's doubtful he's done much damage. The book can't have been propping up too much. Itachi isn't concerned either way.]

If you need me to assist, just let me know.

[deathsdoctor]

Call Lupin while I talk to Katara?

[yourhatred]

[Itachi nods, opening his book to do just that.]

[deathsdoctor]

[And, (with previous permission from Stark) Itachi gets Lupin first. He agrees to take in the cats as he already offered to watch them when the two men need a cat sitter for occasions when they're both on missions or drafts.]
