Trog set about propping the door back up. "You should probably answer him omae." After that he moved towards the windows to block Eddie from an escape.

[Gustovness]

Concrete's tone wasn't lost on Eddie.  The man, though thoroughly intimidated, tried to cover it up...

Con 7 + CHR 6 - 1 Suspcious = 12 dice, 2 hits

"Ah, hah? And who are you? Her pimp? Tell your dog to be careful with my door..."


Edit: Brought down the amount of hits from 3 to 2 to figure in for Concrete's successful intimidation.

note: used Ace in the hole modifier, because we have security footage
“I’m the man with the gun, Eddie. And though I don’t get paid to shoot you I might just do it for pleasure if you waste more of my time.” The ork’s smile was more like a grimace, showing teeth and tusks. “So I ask you again: who were the men in the purple van and where did they take the girl?”

[Gustovness]

"Alright, alright, cool it omae..." says Eddie as he puts both his hands up, trying to convey compliance.  He takes his mask off and tosses it on a coffee table.

"Someone is lookin' for sluts for somethin', I dunno, none of my fuckin' business.  I talk to pretty girls, lead them outside, someone picks them up, I get paid later.  I don't know where the girl from last night is, and that's the truth.  Sorry, can't help you there."

[Ren]

"I don't think you try enough." Concrete's voice still carried that aggressive tone. "Just tell me everything about how you got into this gig. You could go on with the names and descriptions of people you're working with, like the one in the purple van you've surely seen. How you notify them if you got a new target. How they pay you." The ork glared at the man. "You see, Eddie, there's a lot of things you can help us with, you just have to try harder."

While he listened to the answer he sent a text to the others. >>This will not be fast, i will have to aks every little question as it seems. If you have ideas what we should ask the suggestions are welcome.<<

[Padawan]

Trog leaned against the wall and chuckled, "Nothing eh? Even a troll knows you're lying." Trog then cracked his knuckles and look at Concrete, "Maybe he's telling the truth though? If he doesn't know anything I guess his employer wouldn't mind if we.... played a few rounds of my favorite game."

[Gustovness]

"N-n-n-n-n-no, there's no employer, just one-..."

Drek, already said too much...

Eddie starts backing up against the wall.

"Uggghhh.... alright man, look, I can help you out, if someone went through all the trouble of sending a couple of goons over a little bitch like that, I'm not stupid enough to not realize I made an enemy with someone not worth the trouble..."

They haven't roughed me up yet, maybe I can save my bones...

Eddie relaxed and slouched down unto a couch.

"Before I start blabbin', know that I'm well connected myself.  That's not a threatening ya's, just lettin' ya know I can still be worth more to you alive rather than dead, so don't go droppin' my name around like an asshole when you go lookin' for Sleepin' Beauty..."

ok so I found out how to roll inside the room so we have a history at least, still can't find that icon that will provide the BB code to post rolls in here.  the first roll I did was figuring stuff out, the next one was this one:

Eddie rolling an Etiquette test to see if he offends Concrete or Trog:

Etiquette 5 + CHR 6 = 11, 3 hits

[Ren]

::Concrete::

"You still don't see the picture, do you? Noone's here but you and us. There's no connections, no buddies, just a couple of men armed and starting to lose their patience." Concrete took a deep breath. "If you still think you can have conditions, reconsider." After leaving a few seconds for Eddie to take the message, he continued. Time to let him breathe a bit. "Look, i understand your position. I'm not paid to make your life miserable so i don't intend to do it unless you do it to me. But you're wasting time." Concrete's voice became cold. "Names. Faces. Places. Now."

[Padawan]

::Trog::
While waiting for Eddie to answer Concrete, Trog sent a text to the rest of the team >> The way is clear guys, we have him taped in his apartment. Not often a stagger like him recognized it was best to sit down in my experience.<<

[Reiper]

Lash

Sends a message to the team <<Heading in, it doesn't look like our running is coming back, If you want I'll fix his memory so he doesn't narc on us to any of his friends>> She walked in the front door and up to the apartment, and into Eddie's apartment, "why hello handsome," she said with a smile. She turned to Concrete, "so what have we learned?"

[Gustovness]

Why didn't anyone roll the counter to the etiquette test?

These guys misunderstood me.  If I'm lucky, I'll tell them exactly what they want to hear and they'll interpret it ass backwards...

"Guy's name is Heizo.  He's a chinpira for the local kanagawa-gumi.  He contacts me whenever he needs girls, I tell him where I'll be, and I escort them into his care.  I don't know where the hell he takes them after that, omae, that's another link in the chain that I know nothing about."

Eddie leans back in his seat and starts to look Lash up and down with all the subtlety of a troll in a china store.

[Gustovness]

Out of the corner of her eye, Siren notices a Lone Star patrol rounding a corner and starting down the street that she's standing lookout on.  The vehicle approaches slowly, the beat cop, an old, tired ork, dejectedly looking around at his surroundings.  He eventually reaches Siren and puts his cruiser in park.

"You call in that shootin' miss?"

He reaches for his cup of soykaf, takes a sip, and half rests it on his huge belly, not bothering to get out of the car.

[Padawan]

I didn't roll because Trog wouldn't be offended by what he said, and actually slightly respects him for the way he worded it.
::Trog::
"Well missing links are bad, and so are missing teeth. I wonder how well you'd pick girls up if you were missing some, eh Eddie? Perhaps it's time you found a new girl to 'escort' to Heizo... Or I can finally play my favorite game."

[Reiper]

"And what happens to the girls?" Lash asked.

She looked at Trog and cracked a smile, then back at Eddie, "I like the way you think Trog, Eddie, my dear dear friend that really doesn't want to piss off my other friends here, you drug the girls, they pick them up. Do you know if they do any more drugging en route to their destination? Of course my friends would like to also know where the girls are being taken. Tell us the truth and I promise you that my friends here won't rough you up."

She sends the team a message <<If this punk doesn't know where exactly the girls are being taken, whats the chances of you guys being able to track me if I let them take me? And when we get the boss's daughter back, I'm going to give him Eddie's personal address, I'm sure he'll be grateful.>>

[Gustovness]

Eddie started talking faster, "No, I swear, I dunno! These Yakuza are a lot of things but stupid ain't one of 'em.  You think they're going to risk their entire operation but letting an associate like me know shit that I have nothing to do with?  Hezio and I set up a meet about every two weeks and my job is to take the girls to him in his van and I get paid.  That's it!  Look, I'm not gonna bullshit you with half truths here, I'm tellin' ya what I know!  I'm just the bottom feeder of this food chain."
