redjacketthief | 4th Turn [Action/Voice]

[Residents of Community House 5 may have noticed a flurry of activity from a furtive man in red recently, predominantly in the wee hours of the morning or in the dead of night. The sounds of haphazard bumps and thwacks may have woken them up on ocassion, and the lingering scent of gunpowder may have made them wonder what the hell was going on in that room on the sixth level of the building.

Don't worry. It's just the resident master thief, Arsene Lupin III, finally moving out of Inspector Zenigata's apartment and into his own, conducting a little mad science while in the process.

...and not everything is going as planned for him. A loud explosion bursts from room #30, breaking the peace of the wintery way. Smoke follows, billowing forth from the windows.

There's a lot of swearing in French.

More, smaller booms follow. The sound of doors slamming, bodies falling, and feet running through the corridors can be heard.

...

Sorry, Luceti. Lupin will stop trying to make smoke bombs for a while.]

Voice:

Yeah. Sorry about that. I'm just doing science here...

[A thud--something big has fallen.]

Don't worry--I have it under control. I'm a professional, you know!

...shimatta...

[The feed cuts out with more gratuitous swearing as another large something or other falls over.]

[ He chuckles and tries to imagine that. ]

If he's as good as you say he is, I'm impressed you got out alive.

I'm just a lucky guy. What can I say?

It certainly seems like it. Isaac and Miria are the same way.

[ Firo's convinced that there's no other way they could have survived so long. ]

Your thieving friends?

Yeah. Considerin' some a' the people they say they've robbed, they're lucky to be alive and unharmed.

Well, being lucky is part of the job description!

'Least they've got enough luck to make up for the lack a' brains.

...yep. being exceptionally lucky woulds like it'd be very helpful to them.

Oh, definitely. And how much luck do you need?

Only enough to keep you in the game.

I meant you, personally. After a while it's more skill than luck, isn't it?

...Tell ya what. We'll go out for drinks and swap stories sometime. That sound cool? I...kinda have a mess here...

Oh right.

[ He laughs. ]

Sounds good. And good luck with your cleanin' over there. I hope you can manage to do that without blowin' anything else up.
