As if being reincarnations wasn’t bad enough. [laughs and shrugs] Definitely not impressive on a job application. I’d be happier if being deities suddenly meant that I knew Greek. Seriously.
I know a little, but none of it due to new-found powers, unfortunately, so I can’t help you there. [smiles] There are good things about this, you have to admit.

Immersing ourselves in the culture of exotic lands, I suppose. [smiles] Things have turned out a little different to what we expected.
Right. Immersing ourselves in culture my butt. [smiles] You could say that. I just want this to work so we can get the boys back and go home.
Well, you could argue that we certainly gained a valuable understanding of...

I hope so. [laughs] Imagine. I wonder what our parents think we’re doing right now.

But what is going to happen now that the tasks have been called off?
Plan B, I assume. They must have a back up, or they wouldn’t have called the tasks off.
[looks at him and nods slowly] If they had known about this plan before, they should have told us. It would have saved a lot of time.
My thoughts exactly. The...

Stress that could have been avoided. [shrugs] But I shouldn’t judge them. I didn’t do any better.

Task 5: Recovering Eros' bow and arrow
a-gentlemanscall:
Dustin waited outside the boat; he didn’t want to get knocked over in the hustle to get on. He watched Max carefully, sizing him up as a leader. Dustin had no problems taking orders he would just like them from a reliable source. He wanted to live and although he might be able to do it on his own it was easier with a team. The leader appeared hopelessly uncoordinated or overly...

OOC: Can't really be online today. ;_;
Who’s replying next to the task 5 para? We could skip it ahead to them sailing. Or I guess I could trot out a short reply to Dustin and they could be on their way?

Task 5: Recovering Eros' bow and arrow
OOC: Planning post is here if you still haven’t seen it. There’s no set order for this, but it would be nice to have all the characters involved in every ‘circuit’ of the para. Feel free to skip bits you feel are unnecessary – e.g. the next person could be sailing, or paddling. All I’d say is don’t introduce the monsters too quickly. I don’t want it to...

walkout-towinter replied to your post: OOC: Hmph. Still need the Psychometry spot filled….
We should just go for it. It’s suggested but not mandatory to have. I’d much rather just go with it. (:
Okedoke then. I’m off to do some more revision and I’ll type up a starter while I’m doing that.
Everyone on task 5 who hasn’t already, please read...

OOC: Hmph. Still need the Psychometry spot...
I guess we don’t really have to have one, though. The only person who actually has Psychometry is Lelani. And they could find the clone just through Max going through the clone’s memories or something…
That way we could get the task started really soon. What you guys think?

HOW TASK FIVE IS GOING TO GO DOWN
This ended up so much longer than I was anticipating. Whoops…Please tell me if you’re not happy with any of it, or if you want anything changed/cut out/altered, and I’ll see what I can do. I tried to give just the basic outline. Details can be done as we go along.

OOC: Question
max-simmons:
Will they have been told whereabouts the bow and arrow are for Task 5 (eg. the island that it’s on)? Or will they track it down themselves from the very beginning?
Okay, I’m just going to say that Max has been doing a lot of research on it. Problem solved.

[laughs] Summer camp? That is what you did at summer camp. Wow and to think I used to beg my parents to let me go. I probably would have regretted it. People like you?
I can’t say the same for summer camps universally, but yes. That among other delights. Football, tent making, ‘campfire crafts’. You get the general idea. [smiles] The weedy people, is what I...

It’s no problem, but doing what? [smiles]
Being in a task. Everyone that’s helping is helping get the guys back, including my brother, so I think a thank you is in order. [smiles]
It’s only what any feeling human would do. [ducks head in thanks] They’re missed, and if I can help stop that, then naturally I’m going to do all I can.

Exactly like that. I think the point is you have to trust yourself to catch the person as well. [shrugs] It never really made sense to me. But the one where you have to navigate a field using a limited number of planks...

Things can be learned, you don’t always have to be a natural to be good. I’m sure our whole task group has complete confidence in you. We have to trust one another to be successful. [nods] And like you said we always have Coach Parker.
Trust is key. [nods] I suppose we should be doing some of those team-building exercises, then. [chuckles] I wasn’t very good at those.
