Prompt 3: Game Time

[ Welcome to the Game Tower. Today's game is a sort of mad fake phantom thief free-for-all. You arrived, were given top hats and cloaks, and the inside floor of the tower had been remodeled to resemble an art museum, with a giant roulette wheel right by the elevator you exited. Below that was a little slot, where today's hologram host explained the wheel would spit out a slip with a goal just for you.

So you have a little slip of paper with a goal on it, and no way of knowing what anyone else's goals are, though you did see the big roulette wheel being spun at the beginning letting you know the some of the possibilities:

♚Steal someone's clothes

...well, waiting around isn't going to get you any points. Get to it, temporary phantom thief! ]

[Today a new face is staring at his slip of paper, unblinking. He seems a little odd, but it looks like he could use some help. Maybe you can help him or maybe you're just as lost.]

[Taps the tip of his own nose, you got it]

It's not stealing if you hand it to me though. Stealing is definitely 'taking without permission'. So, I won't ask...

But if you could perhaps take your jacket off and look the other way, I would appreciate it.

[asonoficeandfire]

[raises an eyebrow at that, but hey it's all logical, so he eventually shrugs, stepping off to the side to look at something else while peeling off his jacket, hanging it loosely over his shoulder]

[lovescomplicated]

[Will reach out and take Todoroki's jacket off his shoulder then]

[asonoficeandfire]

[feigns looking surprised about it because hey... that's what you should do.

...right?]

[lovescomplicated]

["Hides" the jacket behind his back]

Is something wrong?

[asonoficeandfire]

[who's better at acting? not this dude]

Ah, someone took my jacket.

[lovescomplicated]

Oh my...how very mysterious.

[asonoficeandfire]

Perhaps so. I suppose it is all right. I wasn't particularly attached to it, though I guess it'll get rather chilly without it.

[SHRUG]

[lovescomplicated]

Loss is indeed a part of life. It's good that you're able to move on.

[asonoficeandfire]

[dryly:]

It was just a jacket. I'm sure I'll survive.

[lovescomplicated]

Somehow.

Now, would you like my assistance with your own task?

[asonoficeandfire]

[looks up to the ceiling. there's a large chandelier right above them]

I'm not sure either of us can reach that.

[lovescomplicated]

[Glancing up at it]

I suppose it depends....how strong are you?

[asonoficeandfire]

I'm guessing fairly strong.

[he hasn't tried it out, but he does know he has muscle mass above average a boy his age]

[lovescomplicated]

Shall we test it then?

[asonoficeandfire]

All right, it would be appreciated.

[lovescomplicated]

In that case, if you can lift me then I believe I can assist you.

[asonoficeandfire]

[well okay, he'll crouch down, offering his back]

[lovescomplicated]

[Getting onto his back then]

[asonoficeandfire]

[swaying only minimally as he straightens and balances you on his shoulders]

[lovescomplicated]

Ah, fairly strong then. Please do your best to keep me still.

[Reaches up to see about unhooking the chandelier]

[asonoficeandfire]

Of course.

[he's steady, looking up at the same time]

[lovescomplicated]

[Inspects the chandelier, managing to unhook it before glancing down]

I've got it, if you could lower me now?

[asonoficeandfire]

[nods and managing to carefully lowering him back down to the floor without jostling around too much]

Thank you.

[lovescomplicated]

Not a problem. I'm glad this was beneficial for both of us.
