Whatcha writing, Crossbow?
So, gang, how much info do we want to share with this guy? I don't want to blurt out more than necessary. |

Also writing code, but SAS code for clinical trials. Not yet on COVID, but those will come very soon.

We could ask for names of fences that would deal in extremely hot merchandise. We could also ask about the gangs that could pull this heist off. |

Snow is secretly sleeping while pretending to be in VR. That, or I've been slammed constantly and forgot to check in here with my little time available. It could be either. Did I not post that Snow was passing on what little she got from all her Browser Fu?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) No worries, I always consider it a safe assumption that anything said to one gets disseminated unless it is specifically said otherwise. |

I hope that I have done the calculations right, but I thought it was about 20 naria for a nuyen.

Yup.
##### The hawala nods. “I see you each have a deposit of 1,250 nuyen on account. That is equal to, hm … 25,000 naira. I can give you all of this, or if you wish to leave some on deposit, any other hawala in the city can release your funds to you. I’ll give you markers to show them, which will include your remaining account balances.” ##### |

Sorry, I confused with Lagos main Island. Where all the cool stuff happens. My bad.
You know, I'm going to leave it in as is. Sammy is not the best in knowing where she is (she used to have people for that) and it's a new city after all. Mistakes can be made. |

Aside from flagging down transport, I'm not sure what else we can do here. I'll be glad to let Torley be quiet (for him) till we need to negotiate again.
