Actally, the corebook says there are RFID-Nanites in color spray-cans. The form of RFID Tags is not specified. Theoretically, you could have them injected into a person as a swarm of nanites or be adhesive powder.

OMGsweet. Sledge, add that to our shopping list.

pepper-spray has a much better damage code.

DireRadiant

Sixes do keep on exploding - you got a total of 8 successes - especially overwhelming since she is not at all opposing your test.

From her manner, actions, words, and the context of the situation, you believe that

She genuinely hoped to help you, and even feels some sympathy/amicability towards you.
She is genuinely disappointed (for herself? for you? probably both), as she now feels there is nothing she can do.

Oh, the one thing she did try (and fail against eight successes) to hide was that, for whatever reason, she was quite surprised at the person that ended up making contact with her.

Have no idea what you will IC next, but if it involves further communication with her, the window is already on its way up....

On one hand, this conversation could have gone a little better. On the other, none of us know what transpired. Johnson is just impressed you havn't been killed yet.

IC post sometime in the next few hours.

Unfortunately I can't work around IC that Sledge does not know enough about the situation to make an IC decision to fit my OOC metagaiming desires. Tricky.

Hmm, not sure if Ms. DelGato's offer is still on the table or not, but I suppose Adam wouldn't be sure either. I'll post his intentions, in any case, but if the limo 180's and takes off, consider the negotiations over, and I can edit the post to cut off my backing up.

Otherwise, I'm interested to talking, and assuming her window comes back down, I can post something about what I do next (removing trodes, for one, that would look silly) and maybe get the first word in. I'll wait for a queue from Adamu that its an option though.

SLedge won't be making any sudden moves though....

Sledge is all about helping Adam meet the ladies. The van wasn't named the Love Machine for nothing...

Hey, I really got to catch up on your IC thread again

Okay, Smith has primary control of the vehicle. Assuming he does not oppose what Sledge's icon does, stalling the van out should be no problem for Sledge...

I don't remember what control, if any, we have gotten for the drone, other then the visual feed, from Caittie.

Sledge - Hammering away
Adam - Time to Face up to his job
Angel - head in the clouds
Cerberus - See Cerberus Run
Rocky - Time for yet another comeback
Conall - Gruff Knight in Seattle
Etain - Time to join the party!
Carla - Working on her J
Krait - From Macro to Micro economics

I'm a little drugged up right now, but IIRC I didnt give anyone access to the drone. You are all just getting a feed from the drone through my commlink.

Adamu used GM power to have Angel give Johnson user rights for the van. I think I only gave rights to Sledge.

Timely entrance, Konsaki - I was just about to ask you to chime in on this issue. Sorry about the van - thought you'd opened that up to everyone - but Sledge could have transferred her access to Smith.

Anyway, thanks for the clarification on the drone - looks like Angel is the only one that currently has command access.

Just to clarify even farther, Caittie is the only one with 'Admin' rights to the van and drone.

Johnson and Sledge have 'Standard User' rights.

The Drone had Firewall 5? Sledge can probably hack it, but would set off all the alerts while doing so.

Is anyone else actually conscious in the van?

Fort, Rocky, Cerberus and Kyle as far as I know.

Also, Rosso (the hostage/informant) will be conscous for the next half-hour or so, and is probably currently calling his wife (at Fort's discression) to say goodbye in case we all die.

We took away his commlink.

I was planning on dialing for him and having him talk into the mic. Can IC that if appropriate.

Sounds like we might have some time to do that... and, well, I'll feel really really bad if he accidentally dies before getting his call.

pragma

Rosso is very very out of it right now, and now that he is in the van, your mind probe is telling you that he really is convinced you are going to let him live, so he is no longer urgently interested in calling his wife right away.
That said, if you do make an offer, or interact with him in any other significant way, let's IC it.

Trolls

This seems (for the moment) the time for some of the non-combat types to do their thing. Spotlight comes around and goes around. But if you have RP you want to do back there (or think of something constructive to do), don't hesitate - it won't stop other people from posting.

More than willing to toss around any dice that need to be chucked - just let me know what you need. I think my overall intentions were made pretty clear in the post.

As I understand it, it isn't completely out of the question that Angelo would be allowed to call some shots and maybe kill a guy or four in a Bigio neighborhood - but that the FInnigans would, like, owe a favor, or need to have something to offer in return... the fact that they used Shadowrunners says "plausable deniability" to me (that's the reason Franco uses them)... so I'm gonna go with that as though it is fact. That being the case, I'm assuming their faces are a little bit red, and that Angelo was negotiating, and maybe getting a scolding in that limo earlier. Then again, they could have been sharing a drink, and toasting to our deaths, for all we know.

I figure that there is also the chance that she knows what Angelo is after, and supports his right to have it, but for some reason doesn't think I have anything to do with it - and that's why she's willing to dismiss us... but that seems unlikely. Then again, she might just be as happy letting Angelo's men handle us while she makes sure the Bigio's investments are all okay. *shrugs* We'll find out soon enough, I suppose.

Troll on a bike?

Erp! Ork! My bad, will edit.

I've heard of mixing metaphors, mixing metahumans is new.

Y'all look alike to me!
(*ducks randomly thrown object*)

Ok, back from the Con.

Still trying to catch up on stuff but should be good to go.

Rocky is just waiting to see what happens.

JD

@adamu

In retrospect, Fortunato doesn't like Rosso enough to give him the call without direct orders. Not going to make the offer.

@Pragma

You need to edit the end of your last IC post. I was just having Caittie sleep until someone or something happened to do something to try and wake her up.

I'll write up an IC post about you shaking her into an awakened state, but Fort basicly sees her slowly open her eyes and try to focus on him while letting out a slight groan of annoyance/tiredness.

I think everyone is posting very nicely.

Sometimes I like this thread so much I just have to gush a little (no, I REALLY am a guy).

Reckon in a forum setting like this, it's pretty hard to simultaneously be interactive, keep our creative juices flowing, and keep the game moving forward at a reasonable pace if we have to constantly be pussyfooting around each other over relatively minor distinctions.

So I appreciate the very conscientious way everyone has been handling their PVP interactions and their references to one another in the IC posts.

Oh, pragma -
dude, you continue to be at, like, hyper-speed on your time-date stamps - jumped us forward another ten minutes there...
Sorry to be so anal on the headers...

Sorry, bad habit. I have a time stamp saved and forget to change it before posting. Fixing now.

I'm back in IC, though I wont be able to post again for around 12 hours.

Adam doesn't, by chance, happen to have Francesca's number already? Seeing as she isn't a contact, and he never had to call her on the job before, I'll assume he doesn't, but if he does, that'd be sweet.

Otherwise, if he makes it home, he'll have to do a little more dirt-digging.... you know, after class.

For those interested, Sledge's grid map route runs directly over Angelo's SUV.

I thought we didn't catch which SUV he got back into? But, if we can, that's awesome.

Well, we do know which "chokepoint" he was at. so we just go there.

I am surprised Adam didn't invite Francesca to dinner at Rudolphos.. you know, when it's under new management.

Oh slam!
I hadn't thought of that, but that would have been hilarious. A bit more information about my plan than I wanted her to have right now - but, hey, if we pull this shit off, it might not be a bad place to meet. Sort of like a "Look what I(we) did! Now, what I(we) can do for you?"

Going to be out of town until Sunday night -- computer access will be limited. Fort plans to maintain spell deffense, keep an eye on Caittie and use the air elemental to get the team out of the car chase (movement, concealment and accident combined should help out a lot).

Sorry to push things along, but we might as well get to the chase. If it takes Fort and Angel more than a few seconds to vomit, make nice, and climb back in, Smith will lay on the horn.

I'll look up the vehicle acceleration rules when I get home and post some rolls, but it might be nice to know what our ETA is on collision. Meanwhile, it seems like a perfect time for the Shadowrunners to discuss plans and tactics and whatnot.
