[Closed] War Table Op: Once More Into The Berg

[justice_is_blond]

WHO: Anders, Alan, Ciri, Inessa, Jamie, Prompto
WHAT: The Inquisition needs some information, so it sends in these clowns
WHEN: Right around now
WHERE: Location
NOTES: Warning: Bad recorder playing



It's not every day the First Warden has a birthday party. In fact, it only happens once a year, provided multiple First Wardens don't get offed. It's been known to happen.

But it isn't happening any time soon, likely, which means the big birthday party with a lot of invitees is the best place to crash to try to get some desperately needed information. And while there are certainly dignified ways to do it, by slipping in a few bards or some servants, dignity is low on the list for this infiltration.

Their mission, as they've chosen to accept it, is to gather information while pretending to be entertainers. Let's hope this doesn't self destruct in five, four, three, two...

I like learning, though I can't say I'm exactly the best learner.

[The expression he gives her is more than a little amused.]

What did you do for the circus? With the circus. Whatever the term is.

[ichaer]

I've worked with worse.

( like that time she tried to make Alistair look half-way decent in makeup. )

Acrobatic stuff. Tightrope, flips and tricks on horseback. I also did some knife throwing.

[justice_is_blond]

Knife throwing.

[Anders considers that.]

I'm certain they'd love to see a show with that, as well as the acrobatics. Horseback tricks... we'll be inside, so those will be tricky. Would you teach knife throwing on the way, as well? I'd not mind learning.

[And not just for the performance opportunities.]

[ichaer]

I've done tricks on horseback in smaller spaces.

( because its true and Orlesians are weird. )

But, yes, knife throwing. I think we could at least get you hitting a still target and, who knows, perhaps even moving ones too.

[justice_is_blond]

I'd appreciate the lessons.

[And not just for this; being able to hit moving targets eventually has practical applications outside of the mission.]

Shall we head outside camp, find some targets that are far enough away from people I'm not likely to accidentally hit someone?

[ichaer]

Of course, perhaps if this whole Warden thing doesn't work out then we can become a travelling circus. Alistair's already decent enough at the tightrope.

( she's sure they could make a killing before their blood killed them or another Blight decided to kick up. )

Sounds like a plan! No reason to show up covered in bandages for our first performance.
