Debrief 002 | [Action] | Backdated to the 24th

[somethingtoavenge]

[Waking up to everything being changed is always... disturbing. Especially if it's what you are wearing and sleeping on.

Phil sits up from where he's now laying on a futon and looks around, mildly perplexed until he remembers the earlier announcement. He cradles his head with a groan then slides out of the futon to see if there is something other than this lightweight sleep robe to wear.

Well. There's a few things.

Phil immediately dismisses the Samurai armor as a possible choice. The next outfit is... oh someone is playing a cosmic joke. It's a set of ninja wear. Phil purses his lips as he stares at them before shaking his head. Growing exasperated and a bit chill in the thin robe he grabs the next outfit and pulls it out. It's a set of Monks robes.

...Certainly better than the other options. Phil changes into the robes which are surprisingly comfortable and heads out to see what exactly has happened.

The Shogunate area is interesting, and it seems the new 'citizens' of the area are respecting the robes. He's not had much trouble.

Perhaps he'll explore some more...]

Day one
[Starting off in Shogunate area, Phil ends up wandering into the Ice Age. Even though his outfit is relatively warm, the cold still sinks into his chest. You may find him walking through the snow and muttering or coughing as his lungs protest the cold air he is now breathing.

Since the Ice age is unpleasant for the man, Phil heads for a different area.

From Cold to heat, the next area he finds if the Nile. The furs from earlier morph into a ancient scribes outfit, meaning his scars are in plain sight. While the heat feel better than the gripping cold of before it's still rather unpleasant. At least it' a dry heat. Trudging through the sand and admiring the pyramids from a distance is how Phil spends his time in the Nile. However he'd like to get back home sooner rather than later. The Ice Age is a no go area so he heads back by another route and another area.

In Gangland Phil finds his clothes have changed close to what he normally wears, minus the suit jacket and plus a waistcoat and a fedora. All in shades of charcoal. While the clothes are a nice change from the earlier areas, the area itself is more dangerous. Still it seems simple enough to avoid antagonizing anything.

Finally he makes it back to the Shogunate and the simple monk robes. The day has been surprisingly draining.]

Days 2-Event End
[Phil kicks back and relaxes in the Shogunate area. He's not adverse to helping anyone who scavenging in the area but is not actively participating in the hunt himself.

You may notice he's coughing a bit, but if you bring it up he waves it off as a light cold from his earlier escapade in the ice age. It sounds plausible...]

((ooc; Run into him wherever on the first day but he's firmly sticking to the Shogunate area for days 2-4))

Comments

[widows_kiss]

[The event's been going on for a few days now and Natasha's been enjoying it, for the most part. The scavenger hunt's been keeping her busy, working with several of her teammates - and one new one, for the time being. It's late in the day when she slips into the apartment Clint and Coulson share, the sky outside already getting dark. Some might be complaining about the shifts in their surroundings, but Natasha likes the charm of her area well enough, the change just enough to make it feel almost like one of those vacations she so rarely took.

She raps twice on the door frame as she enters, announcing her presence so she doesn't startle anyone inside, if the boys are home.]

[somethingtoavenge]

[Clint is somewhere, Phil's not 100% sure where exactly at the moment, when Natasha arrives. Phil is busy in the living room, sitting on the cushion that have replaced the couch and sorting through a stack of colored paper.

He looks up at the knock and gives Natasha a half distracted smile.]

Natasha, how have you been...? [He trails off as he find what he was looking for under a messy stack of paper. A thin book which he grabs and opens to a page. Fingers grab a nearby square of paper as he looks over the book.

Yes, he's doing origami. He found the book and paper in his room and decided it couldn't hurt to try.]

[widows_kiss]

[Her expression is mingled somewhere between amusement and curiosity as she steps into the room, eying the items in front of him as she comes further into the room, sinking down on the floor across the table from him.]

Well enough. Just when I think you can't find new and inventive ways of doing more paperwork, sir, you have to go and prove me wrong.

[somethingtoavenge]

[As Phil studies the steps for an origami spider (because who wants to start out with a boring crane) he glances up at Natasha, an amused smile curling his lips and accenting the laugh lines around his eyes.]

I do my best to keep you on your toes. New and creative paperwork is the best way to do that I find.

Besides, origami is quite soothing. [Also, it didn't require enough writing to turn his fingertips black or turning it into a grumpy Director Fury.]

[Action]

[asthehawkflies]

[Clint trudges back in to the apartment, looking a little the worse for wear. A day hunting smilodon had been enjoyable, but the extended time in the Ice-Age had made sure that the cold sank into him. It was worst in his hands. It always was.

He smiles when he spots Coulson there, and begins to strip off the heavier pieces of his outfit, fingers a little clumsy on the bindings.]

Want some coffee, sir? I was just gonna make some.

[Action]

[somethingtoavenge]

[Phil looks up at him from his book. He notes the heavy clothing and raises an eyebrow, remembering something about smilodon hunting but replies.]

That'd be nice Clint. Have fun today?

[Action]

[asthehawkflies]

[He sheds the coat and pulls off the gloves that he'd worn for the walk back, taking a moment to look his hands over. They're kind of chapped, red-sore and painful. He hates the cold.]

Yeah. Me and Barnes went hunting. I admit, I never thought I'd get to shoot mammoths and giant cats, even with SHIELD.

[Action]

[somethingtoavenge]

[A chuckle from Phil.]

Yes, not a chance you'd have with SHIELD I'm afraid. R&D is not allowed to bring back extinct animals unless they can give me or Fury a better reason than 'But it'd be cool to have stegosaurus with rocket launcher on their back!'

So far, none yet.

[Phil's attention is drawn to Clint's hands and he winces a bit.]

That looks painful. Do you have any ointment for your hands?

Day 3

[wildbluevagner]

[Well, Phil, not far outside the community house, there's a blue demon-like figure who's wearing something like this and playing around with a samurai sword like it's the best toy in the world.]

This is just too cool!

Day 3

[somethingtoavenge]

[Well, that isn't a sight you see everyday. Phil tilts his head as he observe the blue demon-like person, not particularly worried or freaked out by the figures appearance.

However the waving around of the sword does cause some concern.]

Careful you don't cut anyone with that.

[His tone is full of warning but no censure as it is concern that drives him to comment, not fear.]

Or yourself. It is sharp, is it not?

Day 3

[wildbluevagner]

[Oh, it's that Coulson guy. He'll wave to him, not yet remembering that he'll look a little... different than he'd remember, and steps closer..]

It is! But don't worry. I'm really careful. I've taken a few fencing classes, wielded my share of plastic lightsabers...

Day 3

[somethingtoavenge]

[Phil steps forward, arms tucked into the sleeves of his robe. That voice is very familiar...

Still-]

Sharpened steel is a bit different from the training rapier or plastic lightsabers. Being careful only goes so far if your not used to what you're wielding.

I take it you're collecting for the scavenger hunt? Or just seeing the sights?

Day 1

[eightlazylegs]

[Gangland is, paradoxically, a lot more like what Hermes is used to. Stealth is required to get around the dangerous gents who aren't as understanding of octopodes in purple fedoras. This makes matters more complicated.

Stealth gets him up onto the bar and playing with the bottles. He's still unused to wings, and has not yet noticed that they're sticking out from under the counter.]

Day 1

[somethingtoavenge]

[...There are a pair of relatively small wings sticking out from under the counter.

Phil pauses and stares for one long moment, before walking over and taking a look.

It's an octopus. With wings. Coulson rubs his eyes for a moment, before looking again. Yeah, no. Still an octopus with wings.]

...Do you need any help?

[Because what are you doing with the bottles Mr. Octopus?]

[eightlazylegs]

[Hermes looks up at the human who's managed to find his clever hiding space of not actually hiding.] Define help.

[At the moment he's all over the absinthe, which has an interestingly blown bottle with an amusing texture. Hermes is all about textures.]

[somethingtoavenge]

[Talking octopus. So, Coulson should have expected that, considering well, wings, but still.]

Do you want any bottles opened?

[Though, he remembers something about octopuses being smart enough to open bottles.]

Or are you just... looking.

[Looking, feeling them up, tasting them? Coulson isn't quite sure how octopus senses work.]

action; day 3 or something SURPRISE

[metalbends]

[When Coulson is kicking back in the Shogunate area, Toph senses him around her house - and as someone unfamiliar, of course she has to go bug him. She doesn't love the fancy dress she's been conned into, but eh. It could be worse!]

Look, if you're here to trade for dumb scavenger hunt items, you're outta luck. Things here are non-negotiable.

action; day 3 or something THE BEST SURPRISE

[somethingtoavenge]

[Phil had simply been out for a walk, getting some fresh air and some privacy to cough without worrying his roomate(s). The small girl in the fancy dress was a surprise however.]

Oh, no. I'm not participating in the scavenger hunt. I was just taking a walk.

[He studies her a moment, noticing her cloudy eyes and bare feet. Interesting...]

I live next door, in Community House 5. I don't believe we've met Miss. My name is Phil Coulson.

action; day 3 or something GOOD

[metalbends]

[At the 'Miss', she will accordingly spit on the ground in true ladylike fashion.]

Don't you 'Miss' me! Name's Toph Bei Fong. Nice to meet you, I guess.

[Her people skills are truly admirable.]

Day 1 - if you need me to add more to work with, lemme know!

[relictusdeus]

[Perched atop a stone fence, this hellion is enjoying a break - and an apple - after a bit of fun of the adrenaline-fueled sort, flecks of blood staining his gauntlets and his pale cheek. Having the time, he decides to indulge in his old habit of people-watching, looking to propose a trade should anyone want to come into possession of a katana. There are two at his hip - one swiped from a samurai lounging in a hot spring, and the other acquired in an approach that was a little more hands-on, to say the least.

One may very well feel his probing, predatory eyes on them as one passes.]

Day 1 - Hope this works! If not ping me.

[somethingtoavenge]

[Mingling with the new temporary 'citizens' Phil makes his way through the Shogunate area. It's an interesting event, the different buildings and people.

It is as he is mingling with the 'citizens' that Phil feels eyes. Dangerous eyes. Instinct is to freeze up, to turn and stare. Training says to keep moving and locate on the sly. So he does.

There, on the stone fence is a man. That's who the eyes belong to.

Interesting.]

[relictusdeus]

[At first, Isaac doesn't acknowledge the fact that he has been noticed beyond offering a little chuckle through his nose before he has another bite of his apple.]

...Have you business with me? [He inquires at last with a tilt of his head, his tone pleasant enough.] Or have you stopped merely to stare like grazing cattle?

[last day]

[revoltndevelopment]

[Ben's walked back around to the samurai area once he figures he's got everything shy of a samurai sword. Figured he'd save the easiest for last- and he can nab it after a shower. He's covered in sand from that stint in the Nile. He's grumbling when he makes his way up to his floor and offers a wave to Phil once he's in the building. Didn't know him well, but he knew about him.]

Afternoon.

[last day]

[somethingtoavenge]

[Phil looks up from his book at being address. While they had never really talked, Phil was also knew about Ben. Kinda hard not to know about him considering he was a unique individual even by Luceti standards. He gives Ben a slight smile, noticing the sand clinging to the other mans ...skin.]

Good Afternoon. Are you aware you're trailing sand everywhere?

[The question is more curious than accusing. He could very well not be aware. Phil doesn't quite know how the apparent rock-like skin works, and it could be a natural phenomenon. ...Though the sand looks a bit to yellow for that to be the case.]

[last day]

[revoltndevelopment]

Yeah, but I got a knife outta it.

[He wiggles the ceremonial knife in hand with a half smile and grunts, dusting the worst of it off his chest.]

Got stuck in a sinkhole in the desert. Only person t'throw me a rope? Loki.
