DireRadiant, amra28 & BlackHead If you want to move on, feel free to do so. Wu Si would suggest that he talks to the hospital staff (you could make supportive rolls, if so, roll the hits you scored as aditional dice for my test, so Dire can ad the hits from these without waiting for me), while you are holding the gifts (Blaze may carry the incense - but don´t ignite it before the staff alows it, and better don´t use magic, to do so. He´d ask to see his nephew first and only wave around with his PG SIN after stating that filial conection, adding that he was also there on official business of the hotel.
If we don´t get access, there is no point to stay there, Wu Si will suggest they meet at the safehouse in the morning. He´d then have a short nap in some cramped but secure coffin and go to the safehouse next, after putting on his running gear and wide cloths to cover the armor. Around 0800, he´ll place a call to All Team-Members, asking if somebody already checked out the place. He will wait and watch from accross the street or so for one hour and if nothing suspicious happens or some Teammember urges him to do so earlyer, go at 0900.
First thing he dos would be scanning the flat with all his toys.

DireRadiant, here is a social roll for the hospital staff and a perception & shadowing roll to watch the safehouse in the morning (sitting on a banch and feeding doves or something - if that is alowed in HK and possible at Nathan Road). I won´t bother to roll for all the scanners, unles you ask me to - if you want you can roll for me, or just ask me to do specific rolls.

The hospitals software agents do not admit to having Wang San in their care, however, if you claim to be family, the Hospital systesm ask you to submit a sample for DNA scan... to be destroyed afterwards of course. If you don't provide this, the hospital will not admit you as visitors for someone who "isn't there".

If you do submit a sample, then let me know, at that point it's possible nothing may happen, or not.

As with the hotel, if Wang trusts them enough, ...
I´ll reluctantly accept to give a sample.

Ok, unless they tell me that the revivfication will have any results shortly, I´ll suggest to Blaze & Wu Xian to meet at the safehouse tomorrow at 0900. I´ll than act as posted earlyer. If Blaze & Wu Xian want to go to the safehouse now, I´d follow along (getting my gear, but not the gold from the bank deposit). But still watching the safehouse building for an hour (posing as a drunk from a new years party, waiting fot friends to pick me up, instead of feeding doves).

Here is a Scanning roll for observing the safehouse from ~ 0800-0900. Also some Datasearch rolls for the names and places mentioned in the file Gabe sent. Let me know, if I know something through my conection to Jhonny Wang, too, or if you need me to do some more rolls.

Observing the safehouse for an hour and waiting for any message from the hospital. The scanning-roll btw was for the whole area, not just for the chewing-gum

EDIT: deducted 30

for the coffin - even though it smelled funny

EDIT2: MisterJuan, Si Wu will call Gabe again at some point between 0800 and 0830, asking for a drone-sensor-feed or an access account.

General question to DireRadiant & Everyone:
Should the timestamps show the time of the beginning or the end of the IC post? I am currently using the later, as it was decided on in my other game, but I donÂ´t realy care, it should just be the same with everyone!

DireRadiant

Jan 5 2007, 05:20 PM

As long as the timestamp has some relation to the IC scene it doesn't matter to me much, at least until we get to some scenes with combat of some kind. And those are pretty controlled in terms of who gets to go in what order.

Please try to make the time stamp make sense though. Like the door opening sequence took 1 hour. Wow, if you took 1 hour to open the door and walk in with breakfast, you must have gliched awful lot of times or took 20 in your door opening skill check and your walk through the door check

Hey Konsaki,

Just something I wanted to point out to you (and anyone else)...

Willow actually looks NOTHING like "herself" or at least the woman at the hotel. She's never really looked the "same" anytime you've met her.

Point being she's gone from a more traditional looking Chinese Elven woman to that of a human blonde chick in the middle of the safehouse.

You got a middle lifestyle or better? Otherwise, since you do have alow lifestyle, shipping is 20 nuyen, plus 100 in insurance.

Toturi, why, I did write 'The man gazed at the catgirl for a long moment,...' Maybe should have made that a veeeeeeeerrry looooooong moment

It was a glitch, but not of the PC. I edited it, so everyone, my PC is arriving 08:57:50.

Vegas, I asume we are used to have Willow change her apearance, since you included that fact in her description (though ou didnÂ´t mention the face molding, IIRC). Thuss, I assume grampa is guessing who you are... still he would keep an eye on you, while he is scanning the rooms. After that he will whish a good morning to everyone present and invite them to have some noodles. Unless the situation is cleared up allready, he will bow to Willow and say 'And unfamiliar looks donÂ´t necessarily indicate a fiend, right Xiao Liu?'

It's a 45 minute ferry ride west from Tsim Tsa Tsui or Central districts and is a small dumbell shaped island that is very popular spot on weekends. It's secluded during weekdays, as it's aonly accessible by boat. There is a population of about 30,000. It's well known for the Bun Festival, revived many years ago. Thos of you with appropriate knowledge know that it is also a center of good Feng Shui and several religious and martial arts schools.

Um... wow... Ok, I'm having to think up the wording to my post.

If anyone else wants a reaction from Neko from this, it's surprise at first that quickly shifts to anger at the static voice as she digs her claws even deeper into the table (If that was even possible), then annoyance and insolence to the Japanese voice.
She then excuses herself from the table with a quick 'Gomennasai' before moving into another room, all the while reaching for and messing with her commlink.
