Dinner and Discussion

[Juramenta]

{Headstone}

Headstone nods at BB in agreement.
He pulls out his secretary to search for a fabric store located nearby.

{Revs}

"There are gel rounds. I've never used them in anger, so I don't know how effective they are. I'll bring both gel and standard rounds. Although if I'm shooting at something we must be desperate."

[shaidar]

{Revs}

Revs blinks, as if he's just realised something, then continues "I'm going to have to tell Ozymandeus about Ace's cyberware and that he's going to be restrained rather than sedated. With his situation I don't know how he will respond. I also need to update him and Belfry on our expected package collection time."

Tears

Tears just looks listens and keep eating while taking mental notes eventually pulls her pair of shock gloves and inspects them while everyone is talking and takes count of her 5 concussion gernades and the placement on her body for easy throwing. cracks her joints a bit , then goes back to eating.

[Tay-Dor]

{Baby Blue}

Baby Blue's eyes narrow every so slightly. "Aye, I remember that. I then proposed that once we were in the van, we would pretend to bring you around to our side so that Ace is less likely to suspect that you were planning from the beginning to ambush him. A natural extrapolation of your desire to avoid being seen as 'the guy who backstabbed Ace.' Since you didn't protest the idea when I suggested it, I assumed you were cool with it. I apologize for my misunderstanding."

[El Cid]

With a sheepish expression, El Cid responds, "Sorry.. .I must have missed that. But no, I'm not worried about Ace knowing I backstabbed him. He'll see that as just business since I was hired to do it."

[Headstone]

"Bone Biter being an orc, it would be best if you jumped El Cid, who in return just happens to fall over Ace in the struggle. It looks more realistic being an orc than another to push a troll down."

[El Cid]

"That works for me. That was what I'd imagined."

{Revs}

Revs blinks, as if he's just realised something, then continues "I'm going to have to tell Ozymandeus about Ace's cyberware and that he's going to be restrained rather than sedated. With his situation I don't know how he will respond. I also need to update him and Belfry on our expected package collection time."

[El Cid]

El Cid shakes his head. "You won't need to. They know each other. In fact I did a job with both of them." He smiles and continues, "We all need to be on our best behavior around Ozzy as he may have his kids with him."

[shaidar]

{Revs}

El Cid shakes his head. "You won't need to. They know each other. In fact I did a job with both of them." He smiles and continues, "We all need to be on our best behavior around Ozzy as he may have his kids with him."

Revs nods at El-Cid " It's a small world, eh? I still need to tell them the time to expect us, and Ozzy will have his kids around as his wife is away. That's why I need to give him the update, as it'll only be him watching the kids."

[Charybdis Richelle]

{Headstone}

Headstone nods at BB in agreement.

He pulls out his secretary to search for a fabric store located nearby.

{GM}

Headstone finds no fabric stores in the immediate area; they have become something of a rarity in recent times. There is a Silken Web fabric store in Bellevue, though. Alternatively, the Where’s Wares box store on the far side of Downtown has a fabric section.

[El Cid]

Not knowing the results of Headstone's search, El Cid suggests, "Or you could try looking for regular clothing stores. We can always buy some t-shirts and convert them into masks."

[Ozgood13]

{Bone Biter}

Bone looks at BB and Rev and says, "Cheap bandanas make good masks. You can tie them loose around your neck and quickly pull them over your lower face. I remember watching old Western videos. Plus, they are cheap to buy."

Bone looks to Headstone and El Cid and adds, "I can use anything with a SmartLink. A short barrel is easier to conceal in a shoulder holster with two mags under the other armpit."

[Juramenta]

{Headstone}

''Dealer's choice, chummer'' he responds to Bone Biter before adressing the crew again.
''For the bandanas and the blindfold. There is a Silken Web fabric store in Bellevue. Alternatively, the Where’s Wares box store on the far side of Downtown has a fabric section. Anyone volunteering to get them after the meeting?'' he asks gazing around to check if anyone is willing. If no one wants to go, he will do it himself later this evening.

He gets up and starts making edits to the board:
''I'll make a summary of what we discussed and I'll add some additional details for the run itself, but they are not set in stone until we all agree on it. So feel free to go over every step and let me know what I need to adjust. Once set, this is the plan everyone can reference when you need a reminder''

[Juramenta]

{Headstone}

The display shows the following:
Plan of Execution

Phase one:
- El Cid goes with the target to the meeting.
- BB and Revs stay in the van.
- Team either goes in hiding outside the bar or stays in the van until it is time to jump the target.
- Once they walk into our trap. Tears in the Rain, Pacman and I rush the target and Bone Biter rushes El Cid. Bone Biter will aim his rush to push El Cid into the target.
- I will restrain the target once he is successfully pinned down.
- If we fail to keep him pinned him down, we will resort to knocking him out with shock gloves.
- If there is outside interference, Pacman will be the one disengaging to handle it.
- We will lift the target up and carry him to the van.
- Inside the van, we double-check his restraints and reapply them tightly each time he tries to wiggle out.
- BB will be the one removing his gear and checking him for weapons and other devices. We won’t let go of him until she gives the thumbs up.
- I will then apply the biomonitor.
- Once he is successfully secured, we will drive him to the airport. He stays on the ground in the middle of the van with us surrounding him. Each time he tries getting out of his restraints, we jump and him restrain him again. It will be up to him how uncomfortable his ride is going to be.
- During the ride over I will explain to him the rules. I won’t be answering any of his questions. Just the basics to make sure he understands the ride can be relatively pleasant if he behaves.
I’ll make clear that we are Shadowrunners and nothing more than that. We are going to transport him to a location. We don’t want to harm him and will only apply more force if he makes us. To refrain from trying to contact anyone, for we will do absolutely everything to get him to the location. So he is responsible for the lives of those trying to save him.

Phase two:
- Van arrives at the airport.
- We wait until Revs gives the sign that we can enter the plane. We all grab and lift him up. We move steadily while we transport him. Inside the plane, we stay on him like we did in the van.
- Once the plane lifts off, we restrain him to the plane itself if possible.
- From here on out, there will always be a minimum of 4 people surrounding him at all times.
- (optional) If he has behaved so far, we can offer him a paid ride back. We’ll make it clear this will be after he has been delivered, we have gotten paid and he has finished up his business with the one who hired us. On top of that, we’ll let him know we are available for hire if he needs a crew of shadowrunners.
- Plane lands and we wait to move out until we get the signal from Revs.
- We grab and lift him up to carry him over to the next transport.
- That driver will be an outsider. He gets paid to drive, not to ask questions. If he wants to know anything, he gets charged the same price that we get charged for information. Which is 1k nuyen.
- We drive up to the hotel.

Phase three:
- We use the tranq patches on the target and dump him in one of our instrument suitcases.
- Into the hotel we go and move directly towards the room.
- We unload him and make sure we get paid.

Phase four:
We get drek-faced drunk once this run is finally over.

[shaidar]

{Revs}

"Those of us in the front will draw attention if we're wearing masks and happen to bump into the Star. I need to think about that. I think we need a second backup to the shock gloves if he causes trouble. If we can't afford the drugs, have we even got a price for them, then how about a taser pistol? We've got a bit of money left, and I'm willing to put my thousand credits we got up front towards it if we need to."

[archolewa]

{Baby Blue}

"I'll go fabric shopping," says Baby Blue. She smiles. "Everything looks fine to me as far as the plan, except I'm not getting drunk. It does bad things to me. I will however, happily watch and then explain to each of you in exquisite detail what kind of drunken shenanigans you got up to. Also, when you get a minute Headstone, you should make sure to come up with watch rotations for the plane. I don't think you'll need input from any of us. Not like one of us is going to be off visiting Aunt Daisy or anything. Just need to make sure we all know when we're watching, and when we can rest."

[Juramenta]

{Headstone}

''Good reminder, chummers. I will add the rotation to the plan when I sent it out. I appreciate you getting the last items.
With arriving late and getting up early to make breakfast, I could use a few hours of sleep before we head out. The taserpistol sounds like a good idea as well Revs, but I have no idea where to get one at this hour he responds as he finally starts eating himself.

[shaidar]

{Revs}

"Does anyone have a weapons fixer? It's not really my area, my pistol is up front and legal. Oh, if I do lend any money for a taser pistol, I will want it back."

[Ozgood13]

{Bone Biter}

Bone looks to Revs and says, "Sad to say both of my contacts are a long way away from here. I could hit up an Orc bar and see IF anyone has something up for sale."

{Revs}

"Does anyone have a weapons fixer? It's not really my area, my pistol is up front and legal. Oh, if I do lend any money for a taser pistol, I will want it back."

[Juramenta]

{Headstone}

Gives a nod at Bone Biter and stops eating for a second.
"Chummer, don't be catching you all drunk leaving that bar this evening" he chuckles.

He gets up to adjust the board one last time.
"Alright, with BB and Bone Biter handling the last points of business on the street. We should be good. as he checks off the last points save for the final one.

"Any final questions before I end the meeting?" looks at everyone individually to double check, while looking content with how swiftly they managed to get through this meeting.

[archolewa]

{Baby Blue}

"Sorry, but I'm still not completely clear on how the snatch is going to work. Are we waiting for a signal from El Cid, or are we going to watch to see where Ace parks, and then the snatchers will lurk in an alley between there and the bar? Soon as they walk by, the snatchers make with the snatchin' while Revs drives up," asks Baby Blue. "Also, I have some lowlight binoculars, so Revs and I can park fairly far away so long as I have clear sight on the alley, and still know when the jump happens."

[Juramenta]

{Headstone}

"It's best if El Cid doesn't know exactly when we strike, saves him from having to act . From El Cid we need the path they are going to walk and where the car is parked. We can then decide at the location if we hide in the street or drive the van up to them and jump ouy. It will depend on how well the hiding spots at the location are and how busy it is. If there are people everywhere, it would be better to stay in the van. Headstone answers.

[archolewa]

{Baby Blue}

Baby Blue gives a thumps up. "Works for me. Probably should stay in the van, if I'm being honest. Ace and El Cid might be in there for hours. Long time to be lurking in an alley. Lots of time to be noticed."
