All across the 'hood

The pathetic drizzle of midday had given way to a sticky humidity as the sun set. It wasn't as bad as it would be in summer, but it had been an unseasonably hot winter, and it was worse than April had any right to be. All around the neighborhood, life went on as it always did. Hustlers hustled. Pimps pimped. Thieves thieved. Marks were marked.

Somewhere else, a team of shadowrunners were putting their lives on the line for a mountain of cred, but that was somewhere else. This was just a segment of the urban jungle that was the Seattle Sprawl.

The Fun Zo e


JJ janders back in to the pool hall section of the Fun Zoe with a big grin on his face.

JJ is back…keep yo’ seats.

“Time ta teach another lesson in 8 ball, suckas!” he comically yells. “Who’s next in line to be taught by the grand master himself, JJ the Outrageous 8…BALLER!”

He slings his head back and holds his hands up in the air as if addressing throngs of worshippers. His jacket falls back and his shirt raises a bit revealing the handle of a pistol stuffed in to the front of his jeans. As usual, JJ isn’t bothering with hiding his piece.

Aziz,” he points a finger commandingly at the taller boy. Formally and with chopped syllables he continues, “I hereby challenge you to a duel of the sticks and balls. Choose your weapon and place your honor on the line.”

JJ moves to the back of the table and starts racking up. “Felix, my boy,” back to his normal voice, “watch that hooligan and make sure he doesn’t cheat me.”

“What d’ya say Az, loser gets the winner high?”

Aziz turns away from the Black Knight 2050 machine he was busy tinkering with. Damn thing only worked intermittently, anyway. JJ had called him out, and it was time to respond. He smirked down at the offender.

"A challenge, is it JJ...? Well, I guess I have no choice but to accept.", he says, reaching slowly over and pulling a pool cue off the rack on the wall. With a flourish, he twirls it above his head, and brings it down sharply, pointing the tip at JJ.

"Prepare to be annihilated... and to front some weed. And Felix, that goes double for him. He's the cheater here."

Turning to Toy Robot he sighs.

"Yo, Toy. So anyway, I've heard some mad drek about this guy up in Kingsgate. Boom-dog, or Boom-man or summat. Street says he was taken down by some Ghouls., they thought him dead, chewed off his arm. He came to a few hours later, got right up and beat the cadaver chewers to death with his own fragging arm. Must have been one tough mother, know what I mean? Is that fragged, or what?"

Halo pulled her bike into the garage, her helmet strapped to the back of the bike as her long blonde hair was pulled back in a wind-whipped ponytail. The custom paint job on her bike made it stand out, deep purples flashing with shades of red and blue as she screamed past people tended to get noticed. Either that or the chrome work.

"Hey Thyn!" She called out across the otherwise empty garage as she cut the engine to her bike. "I need your help babe! Something's off with her. She's seizing up going from 4th to 5th. She's a sick little girl, and how can make grown men cry as I take their pride from 'em if she's not running in tip top shape?!"

She flashed a wide grin as she swung a denim clad leg off over her bike.

"Think you're up for the challenge? I'll give you first crack at any goodies I win...."

His girlfriend Rachel browses the teasers of porn e-´zins at the nearby, flickering wall screen.

Rach, pointing at an erotic animation "We shoud try a lesson in this, instead of boring the frag out of us, with korean lessons, honey!"

TF "Very well, we should probably take some pictures for your father, while we are at it. I told you, he will catch wind soon, if you don´t find another excuse."

He turns his head to the observation mirrors at the corner of the store, as his earbuds pick up 0day´s voice.

TF "I´ll just say hallo, I´m back in a second, plumblossom."

He casually wonders down the aisels to 0day and ToyRobot and greats them with some complicated hand shake.

Knives pulled his Yamaha Rapier into the garage. His helmet lay strapped to the side, defiantly, and the black-and-steel-colored paint reflected the lights from the room. He noticed the others already talking, and it looked like he was a little too late since they seemed to be looking at Halo's bike with concearn.

"Hey, if either of you gearheads gets a second..." He gestures to the side of his bike with one hand, where a scratch stands out easily against the paint. "Some bottomfeeder keyed by bike, and I ain't so good with paint."

"I dunno... maybe it is just the timing on the gear box do you think...." She's interrupted by Knives' arrival into the garage. She nods in his direction when he pulls up and then listens to his problem.

"Fraggin' idiots. Gotta mess with something pretty when they can't have it themselves. Just be happy you aren't suffering from mechanical troubles. Cosmetic ones can be fixed easy, like ugly chicks and makeup."

Aziz leans over the pool table, running a finger over the green felt.

"Hey, JJ, look at that, I've got one ball left, and you've pocketed... oh hey. Three." he says, smiling at his friend. Aziz crouches and lines up the shot at eye-level, then stands up. "Eight ball, corner pocket.", he says assuredly. He pulls the stick back, then sends the cue ball into the eight ball, which spins sideways into said corner pocket. Aziz bolts upright, and thrusts his cue stick into the air.

"And the UNDEFEATED Aziz defends his title as KING of the Fun Zoe pool tables!", he calls out. "Thanks for coming out, JJ, couldn't have done it without you."

Beaten? Me?

"That was nothin' but luck," JJ smiles over at Aziz. "Felix, you gotta watch him closer next time." He shakes his head dejectedly as if it was Felix's fault instead of his own that he lost.

JJ looks around the hall, "Neo...Raven, you in?" He points out towards the back door and makes a gesture of smoking. "My treat!," he exclaims as if he didn't just lose a bet, but instead decided to be generous with his dope.

JJ slaps Aziz on the back as he passes by, "Lucky SOB."

Felix

Being his usual self, Felix had been sitting quietly on a single piece neon green plastic chair. His mind kept wondering off left and right, going off on some imaginary adventures. Just like in the books. Both his arms were crossed and resting on a tiny table they had pulled up near the pool table, his chin resting atop them. A gutted pack of some sort of peanut flavored fake nuts layed on it, its content spilled here and there. Daydreaming, Felix didn't even realized that some of the "peanuts" started slightly hovering, dancing in a slow ballet to a music only they seem to hear.

"Felix, my boy,”

Felix snapped out of where ever he was and came back to reality. The sounds and colors of the surroundings assaulting his senses. Like plastic droplets of rain, the few peanuts that had been waltzing above the table all fell back.

“watch that hooligan and make sure he doesn’t cheat me.”

Felix answered back to JJ with a large sincere smile. Aziz was rather good at pool, and probably didn't need to cheat to win. If the usual tendency stayed the same, JJ would get his ass handed over to him on a silver plater. Looking at the players from over his yellow tinted sunglasses, Felix's gaze stayed lock on the entire game. At one point, the young ganger had almost indulged in the urge to alter the course of certain shots... but he had refrained from it. It wouldn't have been right.

When the game was finally over, and Felix's prediction came true, he couldn't help but grin like an idiot... but his grin was short lived.

"Felix, you gotta watch him closer next time."

He straightened in his seat, a slight red mark under his chin.

"But JJ... I...." Felix stuttered. His shoulders slumped down a bit

Next time, he'd have to give a little hand to his friend.

Auran @ gang's primary hideout

Auran sits in the gang's hideout tidying up the place, reorganinzing any messes, and especially cleaning the girl's bathroom. This place is a fragging sty She skips over the boys bathroom in her daily cleaning routine. Once her commlink buzzes with a voicemail she'll stop what she's doing and listen. Sunny? that better not become my new nick. She decides to leave a voice mail for Tao , since that way she can get back to what she's doing.

"Hey Dowy, um, yea we definitely need some stuff around here. Maybe you could get some soycaff, and maybe some burgers or some chicken. I'm starving! I can cook it up if we need to. Also grab some Kool-Aid, preferably red. Grab some other munchies too, but we may wanna hide these from the Deepheads. I'll ask around and see if anyone else needs anything."

After mailing back, she quickly dusts some stuff, and sweeps the main floors real fast before going to find some of the others.

She spots Shade and BronzeWyrm and asks them, "Hoi! Tao's at the stuffer, you guys need anything while he's there?"

Felix

Felix's sad attitude was rapidly replaced by a gentle giggle after Aziz's remark. He always made him laugh.

His tiny frame slid off the chair to follow Aziz and JJ. As he walked, the two cords of his hoody dangled from side to side, follow the movement of the breathing mask that hung around his neck. Once they lit up, he'd have to put it on... and they would probably make fun of him. But he didn't mind. Felix was used to it by know, and knew that it was all in good fun. It was all just a mind game.

Plus; at least one of them had to stay sharp in case something happened.

Then he wanders straight to the Red KoolAid, grabbing a small QuezalCola on the way. As he´s about to take a KoolAid, Rachel surfaces to his side and says with a scratchy tone:
"You´ bringing this for the snowheaded bitch again, don´t you! I thought you couldn´t stand her."
She crosses her Arms before her chest, whaiting for an answer, angry faced.

TF shrugs and smiles, putting the KoolAid back into the aisle. He streaks Rachs shoulder and says with a soothing tone: "Lock, spring breez, no matter if I can stand her or not, she´s part of the pack, so we´ve got to stick. That means I´ll bring her stuff along, when I´m shoping. I´d do this for anyone in the gang, it´s nothing special"

Halo nods to Thyn "You are a life saver doll! I promise, I owe ya. Anything you need me to keep an eye out for that you could use in the shop, if you get my drift?"

She smiles that sly smile again and refocuses her attention on Knives. "Y'know, if you're really desperate to get that prettied up, I think over in the girl's bathroom of the squat we've got a nail polish colour that would match that up real good." She sticks out her tongue at Knives messing with him, she wouldn't dream of putting nail polish on another ganger's bike, well not one of the 410's at least.

The back door to the garage opens and bangs shut. JAX saunters in and over to the others. Thyn is hunkering over Halo's bike with a look of deep concentration. He clasps hands with Knives and makes a pained face as he sees the long scrape in the paint. He gives a 'we'll-get that-fixed-up' nod and moves over to Halo's flashy bike.

He has his shirt sleeves rolled up and he lays his hands on the sleek racing bike, like he could sense what was wrong with it through the palms of his hands. Shoot, he might be able to.

Tagging along in Aziz footsteps, Felix glanced over to the side and over his tinted glasses as he passed Neo. The troll was sitting in his corner, narsasitically polishing the chrome of his already gleaming Ingram. It wasn't that Felix didn't like him... He tried as much as he could to see the good in everyone. Neo was a loyal and reliable member of the gang. But a few days ago, he had once again hit on Halo in a rather crude manner. Felix still hadn't forgotten or forgiven the event.

The young man's usually bright green eyes clouded themselves for a few seconds.

A few quick steps and he was at JJ's side.

"So........." he said almost sheepishly.

He cleared his throat before continuing.

"Are we doing anything tonight?"

Wyrm lifts her head up from drawing, combing a lock of red hair from her face with the end of her pencil, to glance at Auran and smiles. This is the first movement seen from her in nearly the hour since she dropped into the HQ after dinner. An oversized sketch-pad is craddled in her crossed legs. Several little doodles of eyes, hands, skulls and such are scattered around the outline of a standing robotic man that looks to be reaching out towards something. some of his features aren't complete yet.

A small voice answers, still a bit distant. "I'm fine thanks, I already downloaded some grub at my home node, but some yogurt drink or a refill on Coke would be handy" pointing to the now warm half can by her right foot.
She straightens her back allowing the metal-studded black hood of her sweater slide back and bit showing more of her face, taking a break from her work to check out who's gathering. The night life hasn't kicked into gear yet.

Following JJ's comment, Felix's eyes went to the floor, shying away from the attention of his two fellow gang members. He rubbed the back of his neck with his right hand, seemingly uncomfortable.

After a few seconds of fidgeting on the spot, he finally managed to utter an almost inaudible ".......no......"

Aziz steps out of the doorway and into the cooler night air. He unslings Kalila from his back, and holds her in his left hand on the scabbard, just below the guard. He settles into a place on the wall next to Felix, flanking him with JJ.

He reaches out and takes the proffered joint. He sticks it between his lips, and pulls a zippo out of the inside of his armored jacket.

"Hey man, don't let it get you down.", he says to Felix. The kid wasn't having the easiest time of things, and romantic pursuits are the worst bringer of such problems.

He flicks the lighter open and holds the flame to the tip, drawing in some air through it. He replaces the lighter and takes a long drag, holding it in and passing it over to JJ. After a few moments, he blows the smoke in one long jet.

"I could go for some sushi and vandalism.", he says after a moment.

Raven was sitting on a comfy chair in some corner, lazily making weird guestures in the air with her right hand. She was wearing her cap and glove, so it was kinda obvious, that she was being online.

She shakes her head eratically as if to shake something off; she usually does this after her perceptions shift back over to the real world.

“Some ice would be cool now! Hey, Treeno! Why don't you get an ice machine. Uh... where are the others? Weren't they here a moment before?”

Hearing the voices from the door, Raven decides, that they have probably went to the outside, and gets up to go looking for them.

He picks up his QuezalCola and the package of red KoolAid again. KoolAid really doesn´t seam like a smart choice for a trademarke, considering that there are diverand flavors of koolAIDS. he wonders and smirks to himself. Rachel takes a look at the cakes and doughnuts, while he begins his regular path through the maze that is the StufferShack, picking up an aztec classic coke for Aziz, a bottle of JoltCoke for BronzeWyrm and a small bottle of pure mineral water for Nurse´s next visit in the HQ. He skips the pyramide of canned green tea, as his budget doesn´t allow for it. At the instant food aisle, he grabs a tomato soup for Felix, as well, as some Chicken Sticks. He searches through the bags of Ryumyo´s Noodles, to get some with spicy chicken flavour and than goes on to the munchies. After some time, sifting through the AR adverts, he sattles on his usual choice, one bag of Karma Krackers and a small box of Sour Spots, and suplements it with some Blue Dragon Chewies and a pot of salty FauxPopCorn. From the fridge, he gets a medium package of SoylandGray Tofu. Thinking about the half douzed almost empty flasks of flavor, he skips the flavour rack, as well. Finally, he turns to Toy Robot and 0day again.

When Raven poked her head out the front door, he nodded her a greeting.

"Anyone," coughing, "heard from," more coughing, "Slam?"

Felix shook his head from side to side. To be quite frank, Slam made him uneasy. He wasn't a bad person, but he never seemed to take Felix seriously.

Why is it that one must always prove himself...

Tag turned his head toward to JJ, and seemed about to say something but refrained from it. He knew very well that his opinion on what to do would weight very little: it wouldn't be "exciting" enough. Maybe he could send a message to Halo if they decided on going out for food.

"Yeah, thats a good plan.", he says, taking another drag on the joint, and drops the dying stub on the ground, crushing it under his boot. He lets his right hand come to rest on Kalila's handle. He takes a few steps away from the wall, coming to stop behind and off to the side of JJ.

"What do you think, Felix?", he asks, turning his head towards his fellow gang member.

TF is cought off guard, by Toy Robot´s sudden explosion, so he does not react emediatly, as she grabs his shoping items away and replaces them with the cheap stuff.
As she puts her hands on his QuezalCola, to replace it with Ludivenco´s Kiwi Coke, his grip fastenes.
TF: "I´ll keep this one anyway. You know, it´s not allabout the price. Besids, this Genera Soy Tofu is not as nourishing, as SoylandGray. And than red KoolAid was specifically asked for by Auran! Otherwise, if you are the cheff, you are the Chie.."

He is cut mid-sentence by an angry looking Rachel : "So you called her, did you?! What is it with the both of you? Maybe, you might want to bring her home instead. Thats ok with me, I´ll go alone.."
She swings around and heads for the main exit, letting her chery-doughnuts fall to the ground.

Oh, no, not this again. TF is obviously roling his eyes, even though they are hidden behind black shieldy.
TF: "Erh, got to go.."
He drops all the food into Toy Robots arms and hurries after his girlfriend, knowing full well, that it was all just a game.

In leaving he turns his head
TF: "I´ll just escort her home, see you in the Y. Oh and dont forget SoyCaf.."
He joggs across the parcinglot, to catch up with Rach and the both of them vanish from sight.

Felix


Both hands still tucked away, all Felix could do under JJ's assault was to tug his head like a turtle and squeeze his arms agaisnt his body. A sort of high pitch squealing sound came out of his mouth as he twitched under JJ's hands. After a few seconds, he started giggling.... he was a tad ticklish. Nevertheless, he didn't complain a single word, seeing that it was amusing both JJ and Aziz.

"What do you think, Felix?", Aziz asked him.

His eyes went up to look at the greyish sky, as if he was deep in thoughts.

"Well........" he said slowly while jumping from one foot to the other "I don't mind if you want to sell Zen. I mean, it's not mine so I don't have any say in it."

Felix's gaze started to wonder his surroundings again, as if he was looking for something. He continued to speak, turning his head constantly in all directions.

"I dunno.... I mean.... We can do whatever.... I mean... I dunno...."

He finally stopped fidgeting on the spot to lock on JJ's unholstered gun.

"Well.... Like.... I don't want anyone to get hurt..... and.... stuff...."

Both his hands finally came out from his pocket to pull the hood of his sweater on his head.

"Whatever guys." he said in a fake detached tone. It was obvious that Felix wasn't totaly thrilled about the idea of robbing random people... but as always, he'd tag along and help out if thats what his friends wanted to do.

JJ


"Ah," JJ says to his buds, "I only got two hits of Z anyway."

He puts his gun back into the front of his jeans before continuing, "That probably isn't enough to sell. Chances are we wouldn't even find worthy marks to mug."

He yawns. "That deep was good huh Az? I need a drink now."

JJ starts looking all around them, twitching his leg and slapping his hand on it as if keeping a beat.

"So Felix, what do you really want to do?" he asks.

Felix


It was rather a rare thing for his fellow gang members to ask for his opinion. Felix was so used to it, that being prodded like that by JJ was making him uneasy.

"Well... I... hmmmmm..." he started scrapping his left shoe against the pavement of the side walk "I......"

Felix lowered his head, looking at the ground, his hooding coming down to cover his face even more.

"I'm... I'm a bit.... well... hungry." he said in a hesitant tone.

His following statement was said in such a timid voice that it was barely audible thru his breathing mask.

"I heard Halo say she was going to bring her bike in for a tune up... maybe we should go to Jun's and see whats up..."
