The Bravos work on a plan

"We'll certainly need a plan going forward. I haven't learned much so far," Fuu said, "Perhaps I should speak last to help round out what we've learned?"

"About thaaaaat" Emmaline trailed off with an embarrassed smile, exchanging glances with Marie. "See, we were having so much fun out there that we maaybe might've forgotten to ask that many questions."

"I was with Robin the whole time, so... not much to lean here." Becky said with a frown.

Liv shrugged, "All I could figure out is that every damn person in this place is wearing more perfume than I've smelled in my entire damn life."

"I see..." Fuu said. "I suppose I'm our only source of information, then." She paused, then continued, "from what I was able to gather, the more valuable items that Lady Dieudonne plans to put up for auction are being held under incredibly tight security, both magical and mundane. She has employed a rather sophisticated task **** of wizards recently, and her head of security is rumored to have access to more... unholy means. I'm not sure that, with our skillsets we have the ability to overcome such arcane protections."

A silence from the other three Bravos marked their agreement, but after a moment Robin chimed in. "Actually, I work mostly with arcane sorts of magic, I think. I'm super good at like the more complex theoretical stuff-- shooting lightning is more so what I'm good at, but I miiight be able to help, if need be."

"I'll keep that in mind." Fuu said. "However, given that our ability to get past these magic barriers is tentative at best, I believe it might be best for us to strike during the auction. If the items are transferring ownership, they would necessarily be less protected than while they are in storage, yes?"

"So we wait for her to get up on stage and show it off, then bam! Snatch the crown from her before she gets a chance for any funny business." Liv said.

"More or less, yes." Fuu said. "I would be risky, but it might be our best bet. I'm certainly open to hearing other options, of course."

What do they decide to do?
