Topic: Flesh & Blood - A Night City Adventure Subject: Questions, Questions....
** Mr. Charlie already started his recording as the (skill used) interview was started.
“Whoa! Everyone chill,” Blood Bank orders. “There’s the right thing to do here and there’s a wrong thing. First of all, why the hell are you speaking to Rya in Spanish when she said she speaks English?” he looks across the vehicle to Charlie.
Mr. Charlie replies to the one called Blood Bank “ Because I didn’t know if her english was her first or second language and to me it’s now obviously its her primary language. I need to ask some questions before continuing my task at hand”. Mr charlie explains.
“You came into this run late presenting us with credentials from Starlight with news that a second team was breathing down our necks… we all just met a couple of nights ago and our wallets aren’t really full of trust credits as it stands”. Blookbank continued
“We have already met the team that was intended to take the quarry away, I hope that will not be another from saint nick before the drop off. Hopefully Starlight will keep me informed if another will be sent. As for the drop.. everyone can take a breather for a few hours, When I get the coords and the time hack.... I’ll pass it on to you guys”.
“Sure, you’ve been helpful, but what’s with all this Spanish? What are you playing at?” Blookbank asks
Information.... Mr. Charlie explains “ I needed to verify for the employer and record proof of contract. I just need to tie up a few loose ends so that we all get paid in a timely matter, Everyone remembers who is responsible and how they are to be handled right?. Mr Charlie stops a recording then taps a few keys again.
** Message sent ** (( Burden of proof - Starlight ))
“Anyway.... Where do you heros want to be dropped off now?. I would suggest a hotel or motel till I get the time hack and coords.
“London bridges falling down, falling down, falling down,” Blossom’s singing voice is really rather pretty but it doesn’t last long. Cheerfully addressing the boy, she declares, “Look at all us big, bad edgerunners, Jase. Professionals to the core, right? Silly bunch of posers. Quite the team, eh?”
The metal cee speaks up from the rear
"You shouldn't get paid for finding your friend or you wouldn't be much of a friend. But, he's not my friend and I don't do charity work. Figure some of the others might agree. If you want to hire me that's fine or you can make some calls and see who else might finance the search. Either way there needs to be a plan. "
** Mr. Charlie starts his recording app again (Agent)
“ So Heros.... What is everyone’s plan... see this situation out or go after the compatriot before the drop?. All of our reputations are on the line so I would suggest choosing wisely for the sake not only of oneself but for the employer as well. I’m going to suggest to the group as a whole.. As my job as the “fixer” for this group is....If you are going to do something.... Start negotiating with the ones that have him and find out what they want for his safe return. But the Metal Cee is spot on.... Those that are going... get a plan started since everyone has downtime till pickup”.
** Contacts - Blossom - emailed
“Rya... so who was the shirt? (low level employee) and what megacorp are they from?". Charile turns his head for a sec and then asks " Wait a sec... your saying that this shirt.. Paid for your nice apartment in Upper City and you were receiving a large pension?. Lady, that ain't no suit (Low level employee) nor shirt.... That's a corpse (corporate exec). ”
Rya replies...if any
“ so why Bogata if your from Mexico?” Charlie asks.
Rya replies...if any
“ Why didn't the collargirl just simply buy another surrogate?. It sounds like she has lots of credits....” Charlie will ask the group aloud in the vehicle.
Charile will ask the kid.
“Jace.... what makes you so special?... is it your blood, you super good at math and science?. Did you ever hear your non biological mom talk about why your so important?. Are you learning about corporations at that Bartholomew School ”
Jace replies.
“ Was the doctor his Dad and is he still around, working for the same megacorp?” Charile continue the interview of Rya.
Things were beginning to add up but with no sum so far for charlie. So was he missing anything? He pondered.
Charlie looked over to blossom “Are you in the mood to find some info about this person?”
“Rya... anything that you can tell us about that woman you were carrying a child for besides her corp?.
Charlie sends a mass text to the group as a question.
** skill used (Leadership)
Group text - sent!.
“Look everyone, this is almost over and I can help us get to the finnish line but we would need to be a more cohesive group to accomplish this. The Employer wanted this low key and its been anything but that. How does everyone feel about laying low till the drop off. We don’t need anymore slips, mess up, etc. So I'm suggesting that the group lay low, drop the kid and if those that wish to make plans on rescuing someone... I would suggest negotiating to see if he is still alive and find out what they want in return for his life intact”.
Does anyone remember what the people who are responsible are to be dealt with? If so.... are you still on board with the employers wishes?
End of msg...
Charlie asks Metal Cee “ You obviously know alot about machines.... I have a vehicle that needs repair can you and will you trade for Giri to repair as part of your next contract?”
