Headstone and Revs are popular right now. Headstone receives another message-received flag.

{Headstone}

Headstone looks at the message. Apparently it isn't important enough for him to comment on it as he puts the secretary away directly after. He waits if Revs has anything to add before they ride off.

{Revs}

"Hold on." he says to Headstone. He looks at the phone to see who's calling before answering.

{Headstone}

He waits until Revs is ready to go.

"Hold on." he says to Headstone. He looks at the phone to see who's calling before answering.

{GM}

Glancing at his phone, Revs sees that the caller ID reads, ‘Slim Jim’s Junkyard.’

{Revs}

"It's Slim Jim. Hopefully the van is ready." He answers the phone "Revs here."

{GM}

“Revs, it’s Jimmie. Got done a little faster'n I 'spected,” Slim Jim. “Ya can come ’n help me with the seats whenever yer ready.”

{Revs}

"Hey Jimmie. That's great. Hold on a sec..." he mutes the phone and turns to Headstone "You happy dropping me off at Jimmies, doing the shopping yourself and I'll meet you back here? Or we can go shopping first and head to Jimmie's after?"

{GM}

“Sure,” Jimmie says. “Holdin’."

{Headstone}

''I haven't heard back from El Cid, so we can assume he hasn't been able to arrange the meet as of yet. We can visit Jimmy and do the shopping afterward. I am not in a rush anymore chummer. Sometimes it's best to accept how things are, if you know you cannot change it.'' Headstone grins as he waits starting the engine until Revs is done with his phonecall.

{Revs}

Revs nods and unmutes the call.

"Sorry about that Jimmie. We're on our way over, but we're 45 minutes away."

{Headstone}

As soon as Revs ends the call, they will head off towards Jimmy.

{GM}

“I’ll be here,” Jimmie says. “Cya in 45, then.” She disconnects.

{Headstone}

Headstone rides Revs to Jimmy, while staying within 45 minutes.

Headstone and Revs make the drive out to Slim Jim’s Junkyard without any complications. They do note a larger than usual Lone Star presence. They also see that the Ancients are out in larger numbers than usual. However, few runners conduct business in the bright 3 PM sunlight, so Headstone and Revs only hear a marginally more frequent sound of gunfire along the way.

Reaching Slim Jim’s Junkyard, they pull up to a lot surrounded by a 12-foot high, tight- woven, heavy-gauge barbed wire hurricane topped with barbed wire. Signs hung along the fence warn that is it electrified. Other signs, spaced between the electric-fence warnings, read, “No Trespassing. Violators Will be Broken Down and Sold for Spare Parts.” Driving down the road parallel to the fence, they come to a heavy-duty mechanical gate that is currently closed. A concrete drive proceeds beyond the gate and up to a building with four garage doors, all of which are currently closed. A smaller, metahuman-sized door sits to the far right of the front door. A sign beside it reads, ‘Office.’ A second sign has more information, but the print is too small to read from outside the gate. A wide field of semi-intact cars, truckets, and other vehicles surround the garage on three sides.

{Revs}

Revs climbs off of Headstones bike and removes his helmet (yes, square!) and walks up to the main gates in full view, with hands away from his sides. He looks around for any cameras, and if he sees any he will wave.

{Headstone}

''I'll wait outside and let you do your thing. If there is anything you need me for, don't hesitate to call. Headstone says as he looks around for a spot to park his bike.

{Revs}

"I shouldn't be more than half an hour, tops."

{GM}

Cameras sit on either side of the gate and along strategic points on the fence as well as over each of the doors on the garage that are visible.

In a moment, Jimmie’s voice comes over a loudspeaker, “Hoi, Revs, Come on in.” A buzz sounds and the gate begins to swing open. In addition, the first garage bay door begins to lift upwards.

{GM}

Headstone can either leave his motorcycle more or less where it now sits, on the short bit of driveway in front of the gate, or he can bring it inside the gate and park in front of the office in the area clearly left clear for customers to do so. Alternatively, Headstone could parallel park along the street on on the dirt area alongside the road. The road doesn’t have a paved sidewalk or easement, so no curb.

{Revs}

Revs nods at the camera and then heads towards the office.
