Plot || The Star Wars Vaikuntha Special

[hatejakku]

Who: Open
When: June 8-14
Where: Everywhere
What: The race for the crystals is on!!
Warnings/Notes: OOC Post


Crystals have fallen out of the Dream Width in a beautiful meteor shower and scattered all over the world! Due to their origins and mysterious properties, the Curti Center is interested in gathering as many as they can for researching purposes. To incentivize the public in helping out, O'aka has donated a few silver coupons to those top few who collect the most crystals. There's also a rumor that the one person (or more if there's a tie) who collects the most, wins something marvelous and mysterious~

The hunt for these crystals have taken storm across Vaikuntha and they're suddenly worth a lot. It's all anyone talks about anymore! The locals have gone crazy with it! If you weren't interested to begin with, surely the madness that is this new fad has sunk its teeth in. Besides, who knows what the crystals can actually do? Are they gifts? Curses? Dust collectors? Only one way to find out.

"I've got a good throwin' arm is what," Castor grouses as she peers out at the desert surrounding the little tent city. "Chuck the little shites far enough'n they won't be able te waddle back te water fast enough te save their own lives."

"This is highway robbery and they know it."

Red... didn't really see himself as the sort to participate in outright theft by any other name, but it did make it easier to stick it to someone when they spent all afternoon insulting, belittling, and threatening you.

"I've got a mech as always. They're just lucky I'm not gonna try out my new airship laser on 'em."

[wind_in_my_ears]

Klonoa rubs an ear, sort of meandering about in the same. "Well, I've got some extra chrome crystals, but.." He shrugs dejectedly. This sort of seems like a dead-end and a waste of time. They sure are insufferable.

"After that airship and paying Plague Knight, I... don't have that much."

[acapriciousreaper]

"No. We don't give them a gil." Kuja sneers. "They think- what, that they can just insult the Heroes of Light with impunity? This is extortion, and I will not be mocked to my face. What do they expect, for us to just roll over like dogs? We're in the middle of the desert, here, far from the reach of any such things as laws. I suggest we remind them not to insult people who have fought- and slain- gods."

[pidgeypidge]

She might've been more inclined to be cooperative if the people hoarding the crystals hadn't just spent the afternoon being generally unpleasant. And she was even less inclined to want to try and trade fairly now that she'd met them, honestly.

"So we're agreed. They get nothing." Pidge could think of at least a dozen ways to better spend her hard-earned gil, anyway.

"I'm not leaving without one of those crystals. So what's the plan?" Stealing the crystals outright was probably out of the question, but she wasn't looking for easy as long as they ended up leaving with what they came for.

"Way I see it, we've got two options open to us; we can sneak in an' take what we want, or, an' I feel this'll be the more popular option, we fight our way through an' take what we want. I ain't feelin' charitable."
