For your eyes only! Player Name: Alanna the Pirate Queen Character Name: I am playing myself, Alanna, if that is allowed. Seeing as I am a patron of Phonyland in this world we call Gaia, it would be great to give this game a shot as myself in all my glory. If you had a spy name, what would it be? Wren Why are you after the cape? I want a magic cape that will bring all the girls to the yard, so they're like, it's better than yours... and so all night, we can watch the stars... <_<>_>

For your eyes only! Player Name: Jun D Character Name: Silent Quill If you had a spy name, what would it be? Major Domo (I was gonna use White Rabbit but I gotta keep that for my own spy name : P) Why are you after the cape? He pretty much followed Fireflight here just in case because anything that guy is so excited about doing is probably illegal and the last thing he needs is a(nother) lawsuit.

Mission One: A Shot in the Dark
A black velvet curtain falls over the purple-streaked twilight as one by one the stars wink into existence. Tonight, though howling electric with promise and possibility, is dark and quiet; in the distance, you can hear the soft roar of traffic, but the street you're on is deserted. A good omen, or a prophecy of doom? You can't tell. You’re nervous- even if you don’t want to admit it- and a quiet thrill curls in your stomach. You’ve never been a secret agent before, let alone pressed into the clandestine service of a shadow you've never truly met. With the light from your flashlight, you check your mission notes again. The details are clear- but where to start? They didn’t cover this in Get Smart or Mission Impossible- every other spy you’ve seen seems to know instinctively where to go. All you’ve got is TACO’s last known address written in a matchbook, so you head there. At the address, there are a number of potential places to look. There is a comfortably large home with a plushly manicured lawn. Nearby, a flamboyantly purple tour bus is parked with an airbrushed image of TACO himself riding a two-headed winged tiger with a snake for a tail (not a snake’s tail- the tail of this thing is actually a snake, complete with fangs and forked tongue); a smaller trailer sits behind it. In the near distance, you can hear the distinctive bubble of a hot tub and the hum of a pool filter.
In addition to this intelligence and these options, you also have an inventory. Right now, all you have on your person is your standard-issue earpiece. You can’t talk into it, but occasionally it does hiss out an instruction. You also have a pen that’s also a blowgun but you have no darts for it. It does have an ink cartridge in it, though, so you can write things down in your notebook. You have a small flashlight with a bright, narrow beam. Other than that, you traveled light.
As you case the street, your headset cracks and hisses. “This is The Boss. Target is off the premises, I repeat- target is off the premises. Move in, agents. Good luck.” The headset whines and snaps off; The Boss has no further instructions for you. Moving quietly, you know you must be quick. What do you do?
A: You sneak around the backside of the house, hoping to find an open door or window. B: You jimmy the tour bus door as quietly as you can, hoping that no alarm goes off. C: You tiptoe into the trailer, as light on your feet as possible. D: You check poolside- maybe it got tossed into a towel bin, and it seems like a safe option.

Reading the rules is a basic and integral part to participating in any game, especially a game like a CYOA. I told you personally to read the rules post, which is very clear about not being allowed to play a character from an MLP styled shop- this is part of the shop rules as well, which are required reading. You must change your character immediately; failure to do so before your response will result in your immediate disqualification.

Choice: D - Checking Poolside
Croque-Madame decided that if she was going to do this, she was going to do this in proper style. Using a slightly rough design that Haute had drawn up, she had a tailor make up a form fitting black catsuit for her that obscured her cutie mark and made her blend into the darkness. She'd tamed her massive lengths of tresses into braids and may have gained 5 pounds just from the amount of bobby pins that were keeping her luscious locks in check. She added a fancy black mask because it made her look pretty, but dodged questions on why she had such a thing laying around.
She wasn't really into the whole idea of breaking into the house or trailer, both requiring delicate jiggling of locks or other such things that would waste time. Instead she followed the burbling noise to the pool and hot tub and began to carefully search under the lounge chairs and other slightly out of the way places.

Choice B - Tour Bus
Rose, who was starting to question his reasons for being here, was held up in a black van just two houses down from the target's home. He didn't have much, but the stallion was in all black, his long locks bundled up as much as possible in order to keep them out of the way tonight and a bag to hold the rest of his...lackluster tools. This wasn't going to be the easiest of tasks, but with a deep breath he did his best to get ready for whatever would happen next. A hiss from his head piece kicked his butt into gear and Rose was now snooping around for his best bet.
The stallion found himself sneaking close to tour bus. This raging party bus literally had Taco staring him down. None the less it was intimidating, buuuuut it just made sense that a cape would be in there. So here he was trying to jimmy open a bus to steal a cape.

Choice: C – headed to the trailer.
Agent Simple Simon took to her name with incredible gusto, which is probably not a very helpful trait when trying to be sneaky. Good thing she had several hours to calm down before the hush of night and the protection of darkness to perform such a caper. It’s no secret that TACO has an extensively impressive family, any which could be lurking around, so up Boysie’s S.Simon’s highlighter-yellow hair went into a stealth-black cap.
Just because the man, the legend himself was not on the grounds was no guarantee that his sweets-loving paramour wasn’t in the house, clearly a poor choice. The pool was interesting, but for something as special as TACO’s cape to have been left there? The seventeen hours The Most Secret of Special Simons watching videos of his preformances and backstage tours in preparation made it feel so very unlikely that such a holy artifact to have been casually discarded, much less brought close to the heavily chlorinated water was preposterous.
Or perhaps Simple Simon just had a personal vendetta with chlorine. Her poor, lovely yellow locks…
But that is a traumatic memory for a different night!
The tour bus itself felt obvious. Too obvious. Agent SS immediately decided she didn't like it, even though the painting on the side was very lovely, and if she hadn't been trying to burgle TACO it would have been nice to ask him who his artist was- but alas, burgling she was! Or whatever the secret agent-y word for it was. To the trailer then, light as a feather on her hooves, and cautious to stop if any noises arose.
Hen Cackle was beyond stoked to be doing this. It was hard to contain her excitement, but this was a job and she took that very seriously. So she was dead serious as she peered at her notes one more time. Her eyes narrowed and she took in her surroundings.
The house was risky. TACO himself may not be on the premises, but he had extensive family and probably staff. Hoping for an open window was a rookie mistake.
The tour bus, though- That felt right. Sure, there may be an alarm but where else would he put it if not with the rest of his performance garb? Besides, if she were a rockstar with a sweetass tour bus that's where she'd keep all her cool stuff. With a quick nod of self-assurance she softly made her way to the larger purple monster.

A: You sneak around the backside of the house, hoping to find an open door or window.
Agent Dandy Man, silently reveling in his good fortune in the codenames department, approached his mysterious, clandestine assignment with all his usual seriousness and professionalism. As his headset crackled to life, he turned off his flashlight and stowed his goods in his inventory. The silent trek to his strange quasi-uncle's home was - fraught, heart-stopping, nerve-wracking, exhilarating. It had been a long time since he'd seen any excitement like this, and he was loving every second of it.
As he finally entered TACO's domain, he heard the subtle and not-so-subtle sounds of others moving around him - and, catching sight of a familiar form in the pallid starlight, suspected this was the reason his mother had asked him to design a skintight leather suit. He didn't know whether to be relieved that this was the use she was putting it to or not. Probably relieved.
Silent as whispering silk, Dandy Man made his way to the the back of the house (A) to find a way in. If anyone discovered him, well - he was extended family, and a babby to boot. The worst he'd have to contend with was a scolding and maybe being grounded.
B: You jimmy the tour bus door as quietly as you can, hoping that no alarm goes off.
Agent Brahms wasn’t going to mess around. She was ready to get knee deep into trouble, press her face to the dirty underbelly of TACO’S lair and sniff out that cape. It would be here, no doubt about it. These other guys, they were just amateurs out on a lark and thinking they could handle the seedy side of Phonyland. They knew nothing. ‘You’re in over your head,’ she thought with a low chuckle.
She went straight for the tour bus, keeping low to the ground and using the shadows as cover. Her heart was running wild in her chest, not from nerves but from excitement. Finally she would see the inside of TACO’S tour bus. She’s witness the true dark majesty of her bloodline. Ah, damn, should have bought a blacklight. That would have been a real show.
"In we go," Brahms murmured and got to work on the door, not that she was the only one there and she gave the 'eye' to anyone who thought they were getting in there before her.
