I flop to C because of your arguments, you flop to because of mine. Funny.
Don't get me wrong, this is a difficult situation. We risk our life by staying here and negotiating with Minos, yes. But we can be at least somewhat confident that we'll get
some info out of the guy, no matter how batfuck insane he is.
Our alternative is to head to Athens. And what do we do once we get there, where do we start looking? And
if we do find Theseus there, what the hell are we going to do to him? He's either living in the lap of luxury with his tentacle waifu (in which case he doesn't want to see us for obvious reasons, and all he'll have to do is call for the city guard to bear down on our ass, and we're either dead or we lose his track for a long time), keeping it on the low-down (in which case he doesn't want to see us for obvious reasons, and all he has to do is scream "THIEF!" at the top of his lungs to get the city guard on our ass, in which case we're either dead or we lose his track for a long time), or
not there altogether (in which case... "Now what?"). We're not even sure the love potion still works.
And I'm under no illusion that Minos can have a field day with us, and that we have to tell him a very,
very clever story and predict his moods. Worst case scenario, we're dead. Moderate success: a) he tells us to take a hike, might even coax some intel out of him, or b) we end up in his employ, and we could do much worse now, at least no one will look for us on this backwater. Success: we get our info and hightail it. Risky, yes, but worth pulling it off.
But this is a fucked-up situation to begin with, and there are no easy choices. The
only safe choice here is to run to the hills and hide for a long time until we figure out what's what and hope that Sekhenun finds us. Which isn't bloody likely considering she probably thinks us dead.
Can I go back to making shitty one-liners now?
Edit: I liked the "I hate Athens part."
