[036] - Treasure Hunt Part 2!

[oliverplus]

[when the sphere comes on, Oliver is still in the Temple of Osiris, looking just about too excited to contain himself] I found it! Doctor, I found it! I found the message!

[takes a breath, trying to calm down enough to be coherent, although he's still grinning from ear to ear] Okay. So. You're not going to believe this, but Commander Orion

Comments

[bluewhitecross]

Well, very well then.

[If it breaks she'll blame him. B|

She calls out her bow, takes aim at Orion's constellation, and shoots- 1,200 arrows in one try, baby!- at Betelgeuse, Bellatrix, Rigel, Alnilam, Mintaka, Alnitak, Saiph, Hatsya, Meissa.... Even possibly Aldebaran and the ones of the Canis Major. The rest of the arrows just... well, hit nothing.]

[bit_impossible]

Whoa! Blimey, look at them all! [laughs and begins to applaud her] Nice grouping, Ametatsu!

[bluewhitecross]

[Is gennuiely pleased with herself.] Thank you.

[bit_impossible]

[watches them for a sign] Hmm.

[scratches his head] Well...at least there wasn't a fizzle of something burning. Or an explosion....

[bluewhitecross]

I had made sure I didn't put too much. Just enough to make few cracks, like a punch.

[bit_impossible]

[well colour him impressed!]

Good choice. But I wonder if that was far too easy...

[bluewhitecross]

If not, then we may need to find another constellation connected to Orion.

[bit_impossible]

[lets out a breath noisily, running a hand through his hair]

Unfortunately, there're a lot of options, depending how you want to treat the word "connected"...

[bluewhitecross]

I know that. [Shares that sigh.]

[bit_impossible]

Hmm. I'd say a little more thought is in order before we attempt anything like that again. Besides, would you have enough energy to shoot every star in the sky?

[bluewhitecross]

Yes. [Lies, filth and lies. She needs sometime to rest before doing that again.]

[bit_impossible]

[eyes her] Surely. But I'd rather you didn't.

[bluewhitecross]

I'm still able to, Doctor. And I'll stay here until something comes up.

[bit_impossible]

[frowns] All right, but please be careful up there. [knows she's capable of taking care of herself, but he has to say it anyway.]

[bluewhitecross]

I will.

[oliverplus]

[is looking pretty "wow" at that demonstration, but still trying to think this through] You should definitely rest first, but...what if he meant something by his comment about the captain? Is there a star--a mythological figure--that would be important to Ganymede? Or unappreciated by him?
