[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

[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.]

[bluewhitecross]

As far as I know, the Ganymede is a moon of Jupiter.

[oliverplus]

Yeah, but what about other figures in his life that are names of stars?

[bluewhitecross]

That I'm afraid I'm not quite sure about.

[oliverplus]

[scratches his head] I'm not too bad on the mythology, but star names aren't my forte. I think I'm gonna see what I can find in the library.

[bluewhitecross]

Very well then. I can wait.

[oliverplus]

Well, off the top of my head, in Egyptian mythology at least, Osiris is closely tied to the Scorpion. Might be another constellation to try?

[bluewhitecross]

Could be, though it has a lot more stars than the Orion constellation. [She's worried that she might not be able to do it again.]

[oliverplus]

Well, we could probably find more people that could do this sort of thing?

[is in the library by now poring over books] Waaaait! Better idea! Ganymede is related to a constellation--Aquarius. Cup-bearer and all, you know.

[bluewhitecross]

That is possible as well.

[oliverplus]

I'll keep looking, but it's the best idea I've got at the moment.

Do you know if other passengers can get up there?

[bluewhitecross]

I may have seen Uchiha-san walking somewhere up here, but other than him, I do not know.

[oliverplus]

Then I guess we should spread our ideas around and keep trying stars until we find the right one.

[bluewhitecross]

[Nod nod.] I will stay here until then.

[oliverplus]

Just...well, I know the Doctor already said this, but take care of yourself up there.

[bluewhitecross]

I know, I will. Thank you.
