New Year, New Starts --

[ It was a new year. A fresh start. Naoto liked being given a fresh start. There wasn’t much he could do at the moment, given he was just trying his best to navigate the city, but an upcoming firework display at the castle made him excited. Naoto always loved fireworks, so this was a great way to start the year.
So there he was, bundled up in a winter jacket and scarf and just enjoying the show-- that is, until someone bumped into him. ]

Ah! Sorry there. Didn’t mean to get in your way.

[ Quest ] After the Storm

[ Naoto was always the one to find a way to help as much as possible. Even if it took all day, the teenager was determined to help each and every shopkeeper who asked him to help. It was the least he could do—even if his strength was cut in half, that didn’t mean he couldn’t do his own share of lifting debris.
He was just finishing up putting rubble in a designated pile as he took a large sigh of relief. ]

Ah.. That should be the last of it. Thank goodness too.

[ Quest ] Shadlin Showdown

[ Naoto had every reason to believe the pleas of the Avalonians. It sounded like very basic ghosts, but there could be more to it, especially as it was the winter months. In his experience, there was nothing worse than a vengeful spirit in the middle of February.
So there he was, a small fire in hand for warmth, walking along with his travel partner, looking around with almost pinpoint precision. ]

We’re looking for a pair of eyes right…? What do you think these things are, really?

[ Quest ] Internet Trolls (Closed to Ken)

un; bloodedge
[ Naoto isn’t used to hacking all that much, but he knows enough to get by. But he’s hoping that with Ken on his side he might have a bit of help. Who knows. He’s not keeping his hopes up. ~~DMs ahoy--~~ ]

alright this bastard’s gone on for a while and i don’t know what to make of it.
but I do know that we gotta find them before they flood the entire network… so. aside from trying to talk to him, any ideas?

Wildcard!
[ Any other idea? DM me either here or on plurk!

None at all. Slippery bastard.

[ Naoto was used to the cat and mouse, given his master’s tendency to do so, but this chase was starting to get on his nerves.

He doesn’t reply at first, due to turning his head towards the sound. ]

He could be there. We have to try a sneak attack.

Then how about one of us goes outside and while the other goes in the room to lure him out?

[Although, Ken wasn’t too sure how that would work out. This is a mission, it wasn’t as simple as it seemed.]

It seems like the easiest option to get him out.

[ As much as he wants to charge in and just take the guy down, he knew that that would blow the whole operation up, so instead he hums an approval. ]

Maybe setting up some traps with magic might help... but I'll save that for another day. I'll head outside then.

[ And he heads out without waiting for an answer. ]

[Once Naoto did so, Ken wasted no time in trying to find the person. Luckily, he didn't have to wait for long as the troll wasted no time in making his way out the door as soon as Ken entered the room.]

Look out!

[He shouted hoping Naoto would suddenly catch the person right behind him!]

[ Naoto does, throwing himself wholly towards the person. A full blown tackle was bound to stop anyone, after all. After making sure he was fully pinned thanks to prior training, he sighs. Finally, it was over... or so he hoped. ]

Got them handled! [ He shouted back into the room. ] Now what else is there to do...?

[As soon as Naoto managed to get the troll down, Ken gave a sigh of relief. As soon as he walked right outside, he immediately gave him a thumbs up.]

Hey, good job for taking him down! [He said back to him. Although, now came another problem. What do they do now? As he looked back at Naoto and then at the troll, he gave a mumble or two.] But um...I guess we'll just turn him and let the people who made the quest know?

[Because otherwise, what were they going to do??]

Thank you! [ He returns the thumbs up. ] But thank you for helping me track him down in the first place.

[ And then it hit him. He had failed to think about the reward collection.

He wondered how to do so, especially now that he's got the guy underneath him. Ken has a point, he realizes, so he decides to knock him out with a hit to the neck before attempting to get up. ]

Makes sense... I'll go tie him up with rope just in case before contacting any authorities, though.

[And just like that, as soon as Ken looked at Naoto, he decided to send a quick text message to the authorities. Hopefully this was the right number as he had no idea what else to do.]

And there, I think I got it? I suppose now we'll just have to wait for them to show up.

[Although, it was going to be awkward just the two (three?) of them sitting around and waiting.]

[ He finally managed to secure the troll, happy to finally get that squared away. He gets back onto his feet as Ken confirms the arrival of authorities. ]

Yeah. Shouldn't take too long though. Thanks for the help-- we got it done with minimal collateral damage!

[ He takes that as a win. ]
