With a playboyish public demeanor, <That Guy> aka Mista Clean, has recently arrived from Russia?, Japan, a stint in Africa? in Seattle, as he waits for his contact to arrive, he connects to Infinity, "Seattle's Newest and Brightest Nightclub."
The following is a clipped transcript of <That Guy> and <Racer> from the node #Infinity @ irc.dumpshock.com.
TG: May I ask what brings you to this establishment at this hour?
R: Mostly just a time to relax, wind down for the day.
TG: I am looking for some assistance if you would be willing.
R: Perhaps... what do you look to do?
TG: I need assistance in acquiring particular things of value.
R: Teknodragon smiles. "I have knowledge of how to get such things..."
TG: Some of these items are, how should we say a bit out of reach than others.
R: Racer's smile grows sly. "That, I've definitely knowledge about; I'm good at finding hidden things."
TG: Some of it has not accessed the 'trix since 15 years ago if not more.
TG: One item should be the easiest of the these, my sources have indicated possibly there is an item of value being handled through some collectors shall we say.
R: Hmm... so you seek to have a few things from meatspace 'rescued' from where they languish?
TG: Yes. Thankfully, this piece and its counterpart, are both physical and Matrix, I can see if these items are no longer cutting edge of the ones that have not been misappropriated.
R: That would be helpful, yes.
TG: If said items are retrieved they are your to keeps with a few conditions. Small, minor if not trivial demands.
This post is for a sanity check and general place to pick up some ideas.
More to come, overcome by sleep ...
