[Jack_Spade]

Haha, oh man, Mato is going to get an earful about leaking our home address to the Helloweeners

[Thanee]

@Jack: Technically, I believe, Bobby is still gone for almost two months. Or is he doing the initiation in-house? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Bye
Thanee

[Jack_Spade]

In house - That's where our lodge is (and his ordeal is a purely mental one)

[Thanee]

I see. I somehow pictured him out in the wilds somewhere. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Bye
Thanee

[Tecumseh]

Do you really think Mato is giving out the home address?

Give the kids a bit of credit; they were savvy enough to get the card.

[Jack_Spade]

We really need to work on our security 😅

[Beta]

@Gilga I wasn't clear from your post: do any of the team know it is coming up to AM's birthday?

[Gilga]

I think they would know it is her birthday. (if they are interested enough). I fixed the post after I remembered it was the 1st of April. (Felt appropriate and easy to remember).

[Thanee]

A RL friend of mine has April 1st birthday as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Bye
Thanee

[Tecumseh]

Hmm, lemme think if there's a good way to incorporate this. This little vignette was just supposed to cover the afternoon/evening of March 31st.

[Gilga]

It would be nice, though I did not plan much shadowy things—pulling some harmless jokes on the neighbors and then a night out.

[Beta]

My older brother's birthday is April 1st. But he is definitely not touched by the trickster for it. AM makes much cooler use of that birthdate!

[Tecumseh]

Unless I'm overlooking something, Tamarind doesn't have the Hardware skill nor the Electronics skill group. Hardware isn't defaultable, so Tamarind doesn't seem to be in a good position to evaluate the craftsmanship of the commlink. (She could, of course, test out its functionality.)

AM would be in a better position to judge the workmanship, I think.

[Gilga]

Well AM is occupied for the next 10-15 minutes -but she'll have a look once she is clean.

[Gilga]

Btw: is Mato actually short for Miguel Ápngel TOrres and I missed it? Thinking it was simply a nickname for someone named Miguel.

[Thanee]

Oh, nice catch there, Gilga! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Bye
Thanee

[Tecumseh]

Short answer is yes.

Longer answer is that I baked a couple layers into it.

In Lakota, mató means "bear". (The Lakota are one of the primary tribes of the Sioux.) Bear represents masculine character - bison represents feminine nature - so I figured Mato would like the association since most of his life (including his cyber) is a reaction to the physical insecurities of his youth.

But in Spanish, "mato" is a conjugation of the verb matar ("to kill") which means "I kill". Now Mato hasn't been much of a killer up to this point, but his Aztlaner heritage is a recent discovery. Maybe he'll grow into it, ha.

[Tecumseh]

Thanee, did Raven run off to start her jog? It wasn't clear from the IC. Edie and the Sakura personnel would be addressing Raven as well if she is still present.

[Thanee]

"You better listen to him," she casually remarks, as she begins her running exercise, where most of her effort goes into looking like she actually knows what she is doing.

Yes, she did.

But she will probably not be gone for that long... she does not have the best constitution, after all. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Bye
Thanee

[Tecumseh]

Yes, I saw that, but I wasn't sure if that was actual running (and leaving), or stretching, or some other warmup. (I used to be a regular runner and had a variety of routines before beginning the actual run.)

[Gilga]

Tecumseh - wow that deep! thanks for sharing.

With AM I wanted it to be her initials but also short for Emma.

Oh and I don't imagine her going out (unless Bobby asks herto ) before the uniform leaves.

[Beta]

Very cool layers, @Tecumseh! I have new appreciation for the name.

++++++++++++

For workmanship I was just thinking about is it solid, is it clean, that sort of thing. Not actually a technical evaluation, but more of a proxy for their character.

Also : I do need to buy her the hardware skill!

[Tecumseh]

Beta, feel free to spend Tamarind's karma mid-Interlude.

Also let me know if you update the sheet with Chapter 10 stuff.

[Gilga]

Remind ing you about the hardware inspection of the link.
