Complications

***

Is there a complication with their stake out?

Mythic Fate Chart [Chaos 6]: Sure [68] Yes

Ok, so what is it?

I could roll, but the complication seems obvious. They are using electronic devices and need power.

"GG, wake up." The women ignore the voice, "Golden Girl, wake up! You need to check our phone!"

Hearing the 'our' is when GG realizes that the voice telling her to wake up is Jessica. Waking up is a weird experience for GG, usually she switches with Jessica before going to bed. Opening her eyes, GG notices that the sun has risen, if only a little. She slowly sits up, taking a look around her surroundings as her half-asleep mind starts to process her surroundings.

GG sees Mercury is already awake, having put his clothes back on and doing something with his laptop set up. "Morning" Her greeting startles Mercury a bit, but went he realizes it is just GG he smiles, his eyes traveling down to her chest.

Oh yeah, she was still naked. She should probably do something about that. GG looks around for her discarded clothes as she asks Mercury, "Anything interesting on the cameras?". Seeing her cloths, she tosses the blanket to the side and stands up, the chill morning air against her clammy skin reminding her that she needs a shower.

Mercury is silent as he watches Golden Girl walk over to her clothing, his full attention on her hips as she bends over to pick up her clothing, giving him an unobstructed view of her uncovered pussy lips. He watches as Golden Girl steps into and pulls up the leotard. Once his sees her pull the leotard up to her hips, the young speedster clears his throat.

Was there anything interesting?

Mythic Fate Chart [Chaos 6]: Likely [19], No

Also, still the "complication" from earlier.

"Unfortunately, not. Or at least that I noticed. Maybe if we go over it again, but..."

"But what?" GG's back is still to Mercury as she puts her boots and gloves on.

"The battery's dying. I'll need to find a way to recharge everything."

"Damn..." Now dressed, GG checks her phone. No missed calls or messages, that's good.

Golden Girl hears Jessica mention that, "You should check in with the kids. Just say good morning."

As GG sends the messages, she notices that the phone's battery is low, which is what she expected. "I don't suppose there is an outlet on this roof?"

She looks over her shoulder at Mercury, who shakes his head "No, not that I have seen."

Looking at her, well Golden Girl wasn't sure how she should think of Mercury or what they were exactly. Putting THAT at the back of her mind, Golden Girl closes her phone and considers their situation. "I don't think this is working..." Mercury looks at her, worried about what she might mean. "I mean this stake out. Look, it was a good idea, but I don't think we are going to get anything just by sitting here and watching the front door." Not without sitting outside for weeks. "Besides, we're supposed to be superheroes, not cops."

"So, what do you suggest?"

The first thing GG wants to suggest is a hot shower. The feeling of the dried sweat and cum on her skin was honestly irritating. Besides, she positively reeked of sex. A smell she didn't want to walk around with all day.

But that would require going home. Or maybe to his house...?

Shaking her head to banish THAT thought, she says the second thing she wants. "Breakfast and some coffee." She should be able to find a place to charge her phone there. Plenty of coffee shops had public outlets she could charge her phone at. "We'll regroup and think of something else."

Mercury's reply to her suggestion is, "It's a date then" and when he smiles up at her...

Persuasion(Seduction)+13[8+5]: [3+13]16

Still beats the "You can improve others' attitudes with a DC 15 Persuasion check". I'll have to look back to see how many of these Mercury has rolled and how thoroughly seduced Golden Girl/Jessica is by this point.

and Golden Girl can't help but smile back at him as she feels nervous butterflies in her stomach and her heart starts to beat faster.
