I never expected it to be free, I just didn't expect you to use it that quickly.
I really do like that you did so, and what you did is exactly what I had in mind for him. So is the 6,000 :nuyen: I spent on 6 months of that lifestyle gone, or are you going to apply it to a new place when I have the time to find one? I guess I'll be calling the group to see if I can crash at one of their places. |

You can try negotiating with the land lady to get all or some of the money back.
Edit: I should also mention that if you're going to find a place to stay with someone else, they're going to need to have purchased a lifestyle at Middle or higher. |

After I try to get the money back from the land lady I will go ahead and go to Hellfire. Got nowhere else to go.
Ettiquette Test (for the conversation with the land lady) [ Spoiler ]

You'll need a Negotiation roll for that one.

In that case, I'll just deal with it later or maybe ask Caitlin to do me the favor of handling negotiations for me. I have no skill in it.

You can default to etiquette for -3 .. although it's better than me default to charisma, I know it's not that great.

Ok, I new this would be coming, but I didn't expect the scope of length of time of it. I'll be heading to sea Monday, and apparently I'll be out all but a few weekends for about a month... this won't mean I'm completely gone, but my access may be spotty as all hell (not that I'm on so often anyway, eh)... I don't know that I'll be so active I'll be...

DH, do you want me to leave your character in stasis or hop into his skin while you're gone?

Do you mean the meet with Korbin? She's pretty much done with her shopping, so if you fast-forwarded to the meet it would be fine with me. I'll do a little transitional post of her headed out that way. |

You all know the drill. Add an extra karma point to your sheets.
Sorry about the lack of updates, but I've recently been hit with the flu, and that bugger never fails to kill my creative drive. Not to mention that I have about a hundred and two assignments to make up for missing class. I'll get around to whipping something up eventually. |

Sometime during the day, I will pick up some respirators (lets say 6 or so) and ration bars (they come in boxes of 10 days worth so I will pick up 3 of those for the whole group).
Both items are legal so I will buy them in any store that carries them. Oh what the hell, to waste some time I'll even look at a few places to see if anybody has them on sale. hehe. |

Well in that case, does Slacker know if the land lady owns a car or any other vehicle? Depending on how much time he has before the group goes into the underground he is going to find that out. If she does have a vehicle he is going to use some of his explosives to blow it to hell, though he does make sure that nobody is seriously injured in the blast. He just wants to make a point of taking something of value from her since she refused to refund his money. Here are a few rolls that might be needed to handle such action: Stealth (to follow her without being noticed to find out where her vehicle is) [ Spoiler ] Stealth (to avoid being seen when placing the explosives) [ Spoiler ] Demolitions (obviously for setting the explosives and blowing up the car) [ Spoiler ] Tell me if you need any other rolls. |

The land lady lives in a house a few blocks down from the apartment and has a Toyota Elite that she keeps locked in the garage. You're going to have to let me know how you plan on breaking in before you can nuke her car. Give me an IC post with the appropriate rolls if you're going to do it.

Slacker: The house is your basic two story family home in an upper class neighborhood. Both the front door and the garage door are secured by a maglock.

Slacker, I think you're going to need to go back and edit your post. You rolled high enough on your perception test to spot the camera nestled at the far ceiling corner of the garage. Unless, of course, you don't mind having your picture taken. :P
Also, never assume successes, although it doesn't matter this time since you would've succeeded anyway. Edit: Oh yeah, and don't write yourself out of the scene yet. There's still a surprise waiting for you. :vegm: |

I'm wearing a black full-body suit that covers everything, what do I care if my picture is taken (note: i have always thought of the hood on the form-fitting full-body suit as including a mask for stealth, if you don't see it that way I would have picked up a ski mask or something before doing this stuff)? At most it would tell them my body shape, right?
I just want to get it taken care of, didn't really mean to assume success. Since I was lucky and didn't get any seriously bad rolls, I thought it would be better for you to just tell me how I did and I would edit if needed. |

Ok I think i did it correctly. The damn post was so long that the middle portion of it wasn't there when I went to edit it.

The question is: what now? :)
I think the edit function is screwed up when you have spoilers in your post. Post all rolls in the OOC thread from now on. |

Damn that was fast in under a minute a guy that appears to have been in bed or at least getting ready for it, got up found his shotgun and came outside and got behind me? Seems like a surprisingly quick reaction for an upper class neighborhood, but whatever. First Surprise Test ( I sure as hell better be able to beat a normal upper class person awoken from his sleep) [ Spoiler ] Initiative time I would assume: [ Spoiler ] |

Why do you assume that he was sleeping? :P
Yes, you beat him. What do you want to do to the bugger? |

Well personally, I wouldn't be going around in a bathrobe unless I was getting ready for bed. But that could just be me and everyone I know.
I would assume that I need to expend my first simple action in standing up. Once I have stood up I will quick draw my dart pistol (suffering +2 TN modifier for not having the appropriate holster) [ Spoiler ] If the man is not taken down with that, I will try to move around the corner of the house or at least behind something not inside the garage. |
