Carlo looks Sinn up an down for a moment, with more than a bit of disdain and annoyance on his face. He waves the women away for a moment. Oncec they're gone , he leans forward to Sinn.
You must be new kid. Listen, that ain't exactly the kind o' thing people talk about in a place like this, ,and I don't like to work with amateurs. I know some street dealers that deal in kid stuff. Maybe you should go talk to them.Roll Eiquette/Influence Group
- 1 for notoriety, which cancels out your street cred
-2 Character has the wrong atire or doesn't have the right look
-1 Annoying to NPC
[ Spoiler ]
You can roll etiquette to cover for a social blunder as described in the BBB
those are the modifiers that would apply as listed in the core book. Like Julian said
#1 Keep it quiet #2 works his gear out of a van, but meets people first, obstenibly to get a feel for them #3 Retired merc, so probably a bit more professional #4 very posh club, and you come in dropping pretty a blatant reference to buying explosvies in front of people whose affiliation you don't know. Roll and see if you can cover it or not. Remember that your Edge has not refreshed yet.

Sin swallows a bit of his pride, not biting back.
I apoligise. That was very rude of me. Perhaps we can talk somewhere else?

Carlo looks him over again for a moment, then nods. He sends Sinn his commlink number.
Give me a call in an hour. I'll be out of here by then. Be ready to to roll and I'll tell you where to meet me.
SinN
Apr 19 2007, 10:16 PM
Will do.
Tosses down 100:nuyen:
Buy your girls a drink, on me. Call it the other half of my apologie.
Sinn walks out of the bar, and back to his truck.
I got an hour to kill? Hmm...I wonder how Snake is doing.
Pulls up his com, calls Snakeskin.

The comm rings a few times then goes to a generic answering service message.
SinN
Apr 19 2007, 10:22 PM
Guess Ill leave a message.
Waits for the beep.
-beep!-
Hey Snake, its me. Just thought I'd drop you a line. Let you know, Im alive again. Call me back, whenever.
Hang up.
Dial Lucky.
Lady Door
Apr 19 2007, 10:27 PM
Lucky answers...
Well, if it isn't the bad penny. Where ya at, boy? Lucky smiles. From the looks of it, she's sitting in her office at the Strike.
SinN
Apr 19 2007, 10:29 PM
Im good. Where you at?
Listen, Im headin over to the strike for about a half an hour. I got a job to work on. But I needed to discuss something with you. You free for a moment?
Lady Door
Apr 19 2007, 10:36 PM
Listen babydoll, I would love to, but I, as you may remember have a job that needs done... and truth be told, rumors are flying about your little encounter down at the Ace. They're saying you're a marked man.. that someone close to you is the one that set you up for that first brawl with the orks... someone that wanted you dead. According to my sources, someone from within the Ace made a phone call right before you walked in, they were the ones that called those orks and let them know where you were. And, they made another call right before you walked out... making sure the orks were in place, would be my guess. I'd keep a low profile if I was you right now, sweetheart. You know I would love to help you out, but I got three NOPS officials here tonight for a little "downtime". There's no way I can risk a brawl starting up. Soka?
SinN
Apr 21 2007, 05:21 PM
Right. But what you've just said confirmed my suspicians. Im sure you know who I'm talkin about. Thanks Lucky, I knew I could count on you. Good luck with your NOPS friends. And take care. By the way, can you have someone take Dante back home. I dont think its safe for anyone to be seen with me.
Snakeskin?! How could he do this? Ive never done anything to betray him! Well even if it wasnt him who made the call, he knows who did. After this job, I should go the dear old visit a visit.
Sinn looks at the time.
Damn Ive got forty-five minutes till I call Carlo.
Lady Door
Apr 21 2007, 05:44 PM
Lucky smiles and nods.
I'll take care of Dante. Don't worry bout that. Lucky gets serious for a moment. Sinn, seriously, what's going on? You seem... on edge... more then usual, I mean. You know I can't do anything with the Strike tonight but I can still help in other ways. Where you at?
SinN
Apr 21 2007, 05:50 PM
Some things have changed Lucky. Im not like I used to be. Wether thats good or bad, you be the judge. Sin Smiles at that last comment. The the smile fades. Ever since Sirene died, nothings been the same, not even after taken out that spirit chicka. Dante is aware of what happened to his mom and brother. I dont want him to lose anymore .Listen, I wanted to make sure Dante was safe, so if anything happens to me, take him to Bourban. She'll know what to do, she is his godmother after all.
He looks around for a moment.
Look, We've both got more work to do, you got your jobs, Ive got mine. We'll talk after words. Give me a call when you finish with whatever it is your doing.
Sin Hangs up the phone and heads back to his place to wait for the call.
I wonder if Nathaniel is still there?

No one is at the aparment when Sinn arrives. Lights are down, the security system says that Nathaniel left just after Sinn did.
SinN
Apr 21 2007, 06:14 PM
Hmm..I geuss he left after all. Too bad.
Sinn tosses his com onto the couch, and looks at the clock
30 minutes. Damn time is going by slow.
Sinn does a quick check around the house, astraly as physical. Just to be safe.

Apr 21 2007, 06:23 PM
After a quick scan and finding nothing, Sinn sets him self in to wait, catching a bit on the trid for once.
AFter appx a half an hour, his commlink rings. It's Carlo.
The screen is black, showing only a text with an address and the words ASAP. A quick address check shows a closed and condemned grocery store in a D rated part of down town.
SinN
Apr 21 2007, 06:28 PM
Sinn hops up and out the door, getting into his truck then to the address given. Once he arrives, does a quick astrally scan of the place.

Like most of N.O., the area has a slught back ground count of 1. Nothing else of note in the space there.
There is a gray van at the back, with the engine running.
SinN
Apr 21 2007, 06:35 PM
step out of the car quietly, and walk towards the van, predator in the holster with one hand on it.
Once Sinn gets to the van, he speaks in almost a whisper.
Carlo?
fistandantilus4.0
Apr 21 2007, 06:38 PM
The van opens slowly. Carlo steps out, this time wearing what looks like an armored jacket. He steps out of the passenger side door. Apparently someone else is driving.
Alright tall man, we're here. Let's do some business. What do you need?
He lights a cigarette ,offering one to Sinn.
SinN
Apr 21 2007, 06:50 PM
Sinn takes a ciggarette.
Im gonna need something for disposing a vehicle. I dont want the charge to be too strong. Ive seen what kind of trouble that can lead too. What would you suggest?
fistandantilus4.0
Apr 21 2007, 06:52 PM
You want the vehilce and it's occupants , if any, destroed though I assume. What kind of vehivel?
SinN
Apr 21 2007, 06:56 PM
Wasnt told, but lets assume its gonna be just your run of the mill car.
fistandantilus4.0
Apr 21 2007, 06:57 PM
Well run of the mill would only need a kilo or so. Add armor or something acutally worh blowing up, that could be four or more. This business is built on details omae.
SinN
Apr 21 2007, 07:03 PM
I understand. Details are a plus. Ok. Ill take 4 kilos. If I should need more some time, can I call you?
fistandantilus4.0
Apr 21 2007, 07:11 PM
Not if you need it on short notice. I assume you need it rigged with detonators and a remote?
SinN
Apr 21 2007, 07:24 PM
That would make things a bit more convenient, yes. Sin Smiles as he turns his head to the left.

fistandantilus4.0
Apr 21 2007, 07:52 PM
Carlo takes the cred, taking a few minutes to verify the cred. He then goes to the back of the van. It opens, and someone hands him a bag.
My associate has taken care of everything you need. This remote is simple. Turn it on with the on switch, hit arm to arm the device, then push the covered red button. That's it. Has a range of 300 meters. The explosves are set and primed. All you have to do is push buttons.
Carlo climbs back in to the passenger side. Then van slowly pulls away.
SinN
Apr 21 2007, 07:55 PM
Sin waves as the van drives away. Walks to his truck and puts the explosives carefully in the back seat.
After getting into the front seat, he pulls out the ciggarette that Carlo offered and take it apart, looking for poison, or a tracking bug.
Jakob ol boy, you are getting too paranoid. But I guess it pays to be.

Apr 21 2007, 07:57 PM

Good evening Sinn. What can I do for you?
SinN

Sinn congratulated himself on how clever that code was. He knew it wasnt neccessarry, but he'd always wanted to do that.

Sinn arrives home just before midnight. The apartment is quiet.
SinN
Apr 21 2007, 08:20 PM
Walk in. Leave the bag in the car, and set the alarm.
Get into the apartment and go into the kitchen for a glass of water and a bite to eat.
fistandantilus4.0
Apr 21 2007, 08:22 PM
It's past midnight by the time Sinn finishes eating. His leg is still sore, and hurting a bit from the heavy use it's recieved today. He's also more than a bit tired, having gotten up early thanks to the nurses.
SinN

A gun. How quiant.
SinN

God Damn it, Nathaniel
Sinn lowers his gun, then placing it on his counter.
How'd you get in here and not trigger the security? Thats it, Im getting a friggin dog.
fistandantilus4.0
Apr 23 2007, 06:25 PM
You're joking right? Jakob I've been in and out of places much more secure than this without a soul knowing. Your apartment would hardly be called 'secure". Eggs?
I know you're all about your business tongiht, so I thought I'd drop in and see if you had any more questions.
SinN
Apr 23 2007, 06:29 PM
None that I can think of.
Sinn grabs two plates from the cubbord.
Well, I guess theres one. This Hellfire club, what else can I know about it?
fistandantilus4.0
Apr 23 2007, 06:34 PM
At this point, nothing. Not until you prove your self, as I said, by acquiring something, then take the oaths. None that have not sworn an Oath may know anything about the Club.
How are you feeling after last night? Up for more exercise? He grins
SinN
Apr 23 2007, 06:39 PM
Strangley Sinn cant refuse Nathaniels offer.
Sure, Im game.
But what kind of somethings do I need to retreive before I take the oaths?
fistandantilus4.0
Apr 23 2007, 06:41 PM
Something magical, wheter text, artifact, or foci. And come by it by illicit means.Paying for it is cheating
Nathaniel sucks at his fingers, getting the egg juice off. Then without preamble , he moves over to Sinn, kisses him hard, then leads him in to the bedroom. They are there for several hours.
SinN
Apr 24 2007, 05:29 PM
After finishing up with Nathaniel several hours later. Sinn gets into the shower, then checks his com for any messages.
None, damn. Mancusso is certanly taking his time with the details.
Head back to the kitchen and poors a cup of coffee.
Hey Nathaniel, Ive got a question. I do have a magical item that I aquirred the last time I visited the underworld of spirits. I sword cane. It was an empty foki. Like a battery that needed to be charged. I took it to a talismonger to charge and need to pay for it to get it back. Does that count? It was very diffacult to acheive. Aquiring it and all. I had to fight a horde of undead, including an undead dragon.
