[Hijikata covers his mouth to hide a snort-laugh at Crow's angry little outburst (an unnecessary precaution since the dinosaur merely blinks at the myumon with pure animalistic lack of understanding), but gets serious as the infiltration mission proper is about to commence. Regardless he still passes Crow a wrapped candy he got from a promotional stand in Camelot so he can get the dirt taste out of his mouth.]
Our mount is going to stay in the area, so whenever we get back here it'll give us a lift back to the waterfall gorge. As for getting separated, let's avoid that. I'm going to be responsible for you as my prisoner, remember? Let get closer carefully.
[On foot they'll certainly be less conspicuous than on the dinosaur. Hijikata strokes the archaeopteryx' head and neck for farewell, and as he and Crow get going he briefly regrets not having taken camouflage clothing from Riou's camp, but it would have been too big for him and way too big for Crow. Well, they're both wearing dark clothes - he exchanged his distinctive coat for the black winter cloak he got upon arrival -, so the night will cover them sufficiently.
After finding a decent viewpoint they take position behind some enormous roots belonging to the banyan tree and observe the area. Rather than approaching the prison's main entrance they opted for a smaller side door, guarded by two fae who are chatting.]
They're not paying much attention... I guess not many people come out here, so they starting slacking. There's no cover between here and there, so let's just approach them and play dumb about my time top - say we're adventurers and we found it, and it gives off beautiful light effects or something, then I'll spin it, take them out while their movement is slowed down, and steal the uniform of one. I guess since there are two you can take the other guy's if you prefer that over playing a criminal.
[This plan kind of relies on the guards not knowing what a time top is, but what are the chances? Hijikata has never seen anyone else use one, so he assumes that they aren't very common. In the worst case he's still confident that they can take on the guards in a fair battle.]
