Dakota Rainstar would receive a pretty simple text the following Saturday morning:
Text from Charlotte

Simple was often the best. Saturday on the island meant well...nothing important to be honest. After a small morning workout, he check his phone and grinned.
It figured that the moon assistant would finally get a hold of him. Of what he knew, Charlotte was a pretty little thing. No Julie but then...he wouldn't have to worry about posing nude with Marcus this time around right? Plus, he'd been wanting to see the new assist up close and personal. And in a more comfortable situation.
A drop at his dorm, changing into his more formal uniform for being a moon hunter...and said moon hunter was on his way to office where Charlotte went a calling him.
"Hello my pretty little Assistant. I came to give you pitch you some information, If you don't mind being my catcher..." Oh double entendre, you slay Dakota.
The office was vacant save the Moon Assistant, in the middle of watering a few plants on the windowsill -
-Her mouth set in a large "O" at the sight of Dakota, a few droplets of waters still escaping the -ahem - pitcher she was holding. She looked extremely confused. "Catch?" One could visibly see the longest line of question marks running above her head as she tilted her head to one side, just slightly. "You are Dakota Rainstar, who is having a promotion today?"

Dakota waited a beat, then as if he was studying her...he decided then just to get straight to the point.
"I am! Dakota Rainstar at your service." Coming a little closer to the Moon huntress, he leaned down. "And by service, I mean anything you'd like. I excel particullary at night time activities." He raised an eyebrow at her, wondering if she'd fall for it.
Not many did anyways, so his serious level was just that. Not so serious.
"Actually, I had an idea for my Promotion. I've been doing some research on these artifact items that hunters are returning with." Dakota slid back now and took a seat in one of the few chairs offered. Steepling his fingers.
"Usually such items don't really fascinate me, I mean they would help in a battle or something but I'd rather when a fight without constantly having to rely on FEAR based items. Ah, Chama excluded." He patted his weapon who had started a minirant in his head.
"I was wondering if you'd let me and a small team look for a Rank A item or so...and if so, Could it be a artifact that has to do with boobs?"
There was a loud sob that sounded distinctly not Charlotte coming from the other side of the window, as the Moon assistant herself started, staring confused at the window pane-
-As one scraggly, bushy head popped out from the other side of the window, grabbed the pane with two hands, pushed it open, and popped in. Perhaps it was just slightly more disturbing that Mark had been stalking Charlotte this entire time. The Death assistant looked unpreturbed, dusting off his coat and giving Dakota a thumbs up. "You bring up a lovely, beautiful point, oh kindred souls that sees the value in b-"
At this point Charlotte had finally managed to recover from whatever was going on to shriek and slap Mark with the pitcher... several times.
"Lady!" Mark began, attempting to fend off the hits, "I could not resist the call of the boobs-" Clang- "Artifact quests require precise handling-" Clonk- "You will need my skills and expertise okay?"
It was hard to tell who Mark was talking to exactly.

Dakota wasn't sure how to handle the sob that emitted from the window. Wondering if briefly, Charlotte was the plant version of julie and her plants would suddenly display very...precise emotions. Obviously one of them was sadness?
Nope, instead it was Mark. Oh hey a Mark. No really it was Mark.
"Ah, Mark." Dakota wasn't sure yet still how to deal with the assistant since the whole double d mission but...Boobs. "Excatly right! No one quite see's the benefits of paying attention to the very lovely mounds called boobs." Dakota waved his hand.
But that didn't stop Dakota from totally enjoying Charlotte's beatdown with her pitcher.
With narrowed eyes, he studied Mark.
"I've heard rumors about your services Mark." This time Dakota got up to help the death hunter by leaning over Charlotte and grabbing the pitcher before it came down again. "Shh Charlotte, I don't think he's going to harm you anymore. Its okay." He patted her shoulder and twirled the pitcher, "So what stipulations would you require to send me off to find..." he sucked in a breath, "A booby artifact. Hopefully it will be one with many...booby traps."
"You have indeed come to the right person," Mark confirmed, pulling out a tablet computer, unpreturbed that he had just invited himself. "Now, feast your eyes on this."
He turned the screen to Dakota and Charlotte's direction, revealing a plain-looking jeweled cup. "That's right, the legendary goblet of Aphrodite, there was nary a goddess with greater endowments upon the immortal plains. It is our goal, no, our destiny, as seekers of the perfect set of breasts to find this goblet, use its powers and bring to Deus Ex a world without blemish. A goblet that bestows upon all who gaze into it perfect beauty."
Charlotte, who had long - and somehow politely - slipped out of Dakota's grasp only stared at the two in confusion, not registering entirely what they were referring to. At the dazed look, Mark gave her the smoulder, in which case the pitcher came crashing down, again.
"So, fellow breast-seeker, one who senses the force of the boobs, can I count you in on this important, classified, top class, super uber secret times infinity mission?" Mark managed to duck the last blow from Charlotte, only to find himself covered in water. He sighed. "Charlotte, I like your brea- I like you and all but you are interrupting on some quality man time here."

Dakota eyed the tablet a little warily and then with intrigue as he studied the goblet.
"The goblet of Aphrodite? Wasn't that like the goddess of love and beauty..." Dakota let his hand slip from the assistants as he crouched near it. "Seriously, anyone who looks into would have perfect beauty?" Dakota nearly whispered that and looked up only in time to see the pitcher became a new headpiece for the assistant.
"Brother, Any mission for boobs is a mission of dire importance." Dakota smirked at Mark. "I just need to find the way of the force. following boobs has always been my life mission." Dakota turned that smirk into a charming smile instead, aimed right at the Moon assistant.
"Charlotte love, your exceptionally and wonderfully gorgeous. I don't think you need to worry about this mission," Even if she wasn't, "We, men of the do good for all women around will handle this!" He winked at her, "We can consider this my promotion mission, and if i come back with the goblet in hand...Successful!" He slid up from the crouch he was at and turned to Mark now.
"When and where do I start all knowing Breastguru?"
Charlotte was so confused. What was going on? Why were they talking about love and beauty? She began to slowly, very slowly pout. Was this that man thing that Edith kept on talking about? Where it was okay for men to touch each other because they wanted to be beautiful, some sort of term called "bros" or something?
She continued to pout. And maybe cross her arms. And then wonder what her division leader would say about this all.
"Certainement pas." She crossed her arms. "If you want to go with-" Disgusted look here - "Mark on this mission, it is important that I assist, especially if it is still promotion mission. Con agito."
Mark gave the Moon Assistant a weird look, but decided, for the sake of his much needed brain cells, not to comment any further. He scooted a little closer to Dakota instead, zooming on the replica of the goblet. A map now overlaid the outline of the artifact. "Now, this is an art, young breast-seeker Dakota, an art. Years of study, and I mean years and dedication later, I have finally located its elusive entrance, as the shrine that it is located in only appears once every thirteenth moon of the winter solstice, yada yada, and can only be touched and wielded by a virgin."
Pointed look at Dakota.

Dakota just blanked at the last part. Leaning over...
"Mark dude, I stopped being a virgin a long time ago. Clerise and I had a nice trip to Barcelona...and I've been with Molly." He then gave a pointed stare BACK at Mark. "You?"
Well if he needed a virgin...maybe he could take Otto.
Otto was a virgin right? Maybe?
Maybe not. Probably not. Dude got more chicks then a farmer with a chicken coop.
"Hey wait, can't we just find someone in moon? What about like...Kostya or something?" Dude looked like a virgin...the one time he saw him.
"Noooooo!" Mark grabbed at his hair, "So close, yet so far, why world why- okay calm down Mark this is still totally salvageable." He smoothly turned to Charlotte. "Charlotte, my uh, sparkling splenderous Moon Hunter Assistant chum person, you're like totally a virgin right?"
Charlotte turned to look at Mark. Again, one could visible see the line of queskon marks running above her head into infinity plus one.
Long silence.
"Okay plan B." The Death assistant honed back to Dakota. "We need ourselves a bonafide virgin to fulfill our ranks otherwise we will never find true, perfect boobies. You gotta save us, Dakota man bro. Bro man. Man bro man. You gotta know someone right?"

Mark requires THE VIRGIN

Konstantin wandered into the moon area, studiously texting at an alarmingly slow pace.
He was, of course, a virgin, not that it was anyone's business or that he advertised it--!!
But facts were facts.
He peered at the strange situation going down across the room, tilting his head like a baffled dog. But, he'd long since learned not to ask. It was better to not know.
"Dude seriously? Virgins on Dues are like...are like..." He threw his hands up, Everyone he knew was either unpure...or had become unpure with him. (aka Molly)
"It's like finding a needle in a haystack..." Right? Right.
Then Kostya was down the hallway and Dakota looked at him with a zoomed in expression.
"Mark..MARK. Mark dude. What about him?" Dakota didn't even wait, "HEY YOU. KOS..KOS...KOSTVA?"
"ARE YOU A VIRGIN?"

The Russian's cheek puffed up in rage, his face colouring a little at the crude accusation.
"Vhy," he said, with gritted teeth, carefully putting his phone away. "Do you vish to know?"
Konstantin almost always looked morose, but now his expression was darker than usual, with lips drawn down into a frown and with a furrowed brow.
"Because my fellow moon brother, we have a top secret mission." The native american lad wrapped his arm around the smaller russians and directed him to the esteemed office that was invaded by Mark. "A top secret mission that involves needing a pure soul My friend."
He waited, "Also its a mission for men." Manly men.
