Fun With Hermits (Mission Log)

Who: Riku, Astrid, Radley

Where: Firespit Island

When: During the event

Summary: An unlikely band of trainers is tasked with retrieving a machine part. Problem is, a kooky old hermit named Kermit has it, and now they must devise a way to get it back. ...Preferably without getting their butts kicked.

Rating: Probably K+? I can't see it getting that dark.

Log:

Given the severity of the mission, Riku leaped at the chance to do something meaningful here. As unique as it's been to see a new time and all the history it brings, he misses his team. He misses indoor plumbing. He misses technology. Though, to his credit, at least he's showered off before, shaved any embarrassing five o' clock shadow, and polished himself enough to look presentable. Impressions matter in situations like this, where they're dealing with an unpredictable variable.

As they approach the hermit's home, he runs a hand through his hair and sighs. "So... How do we wanna do this?"

He'd rather like to avoid picking a fight, but knowing the kinda personalities he's working with make strategizing a whole lot easier.

"That was easier than I thought it would be." Astrid is used to fighting for everything, and the idea that they can just ask for things to be given to them, even if it takes some massaging of the truth, always catches her off guard.
