Flea heads out into the cold, the arctic wind biting at the exposed parts of her neck and face as she tries to bury her chin into the lapels of her jacket.
A light snow blew in gusts, caught in the glare of the Diner's LED lighting as Flea climbed into Lynx's van.
So you think this is gonna work out?

Lynx fires up the old truck and cranks up the heat. "To be honest I have no idea.  If all we need from the kid is another set of eyes sure it should not be a problem.   If the mission demands more of him his inexperience could prove troublesome.   Though if he has magical abilities who really knows?   The kid could be capable of anything.   At least during the dry run we can see how well he follows orders."

All right, lets go see what we've got to work with in that park and at the tram stop.
Flea was apprehensive. She'd worked with Lynx, knew his abilities and how he worked. "Icer" was an unknown, and that troubled her.
She didn't really have any idea of whether he could even be trusted, which troubled her even more.
She snuggled into her jacket as the ancient clapped out heater breathed tepid air weakly in her direction, barely scratching the evening cold.
Syncing her image link to her comm again, she called up her NavSoft, inspecting the target area from the aerial view, not really sure of what she was looking for; more of something to keep her mind occupied instead of worrying about the new kid.

The day starts to brighten up as you head towards to tram stop park and subway portion of the good professors route. As you approach there are very few people around. and you find a place to park up subtly without any trouble.

There is constant rustling of the autumn leaves in the breeze and the dapples light constantly shifting like a kaleidoscope being cast down through the foliage. the whole area is picturesque and almost feels like being lost int eh country if it wasn't for the telltale noises of the trams and traffic around. A large construction site of the far side of the park that you passed on your way to your rendezvous can be heard faintly in the background over all the other noises of the surrounding area.

Icer gets off his motorcycle glad the day is starting to brighten up. So this is the place. Icer grabs a Black Cigarette from his long coat's inside pocket, lights his zippo and drags the flame down the end of the smoke. Well being the new guy with little info. best let the others decide which of them will take the lead. Icer walks over to the other two runners. So guys point me in the direction of what needs to be done. Icer starts wrestling on his insides trying to give in to telling the two a bit about his skill set. With this not being a private place Icer feels better about the two, if they had wanted  to set him up for an attack instead of giving him a real job, odds are they would have made it more remote, public places are not the best place to geek a person if you have a choice. Icer decides to wait and see what the runners ask and if any thing shows up that needs a more magic approach, until then best not to tell the other two too much.

Flea stretches out as she climbs out of the truck. The sunlight glints off the light scattering of snow as Flea takes a look around.
construction site looks good, plenty of elevation up there for a stake out.
She leads as they enter the park, trying to look like they were just enjoying the autumn sunshine.
Icer, you're a mojo slinger right, as in, you've got Mage-sight?

As he exits the truck Lynx activates his cybereye recording unit and falls in behind Flea.  When she mentions the constitution site he zooms in and looking for good vantage points.   He silently follows the others taking in the beautiful scenery of the park.

OMG awesome roll man,

There are indeed several vantage points of great use in the construction site. The easiest  one is a platform on the scaffolding it is quite discrete and currency the building work is on the other side of the site so should be easy to stay there without being noticed.

The park is quite large and the heavy foliage will provide plenty of cover form any elevated surveillance platforms however.
As you look around you see the tram approaching the station at the far side of the park near the construction site.

The walk from the tram stop to the subway will take about 5 minutes through the park.

Icer Looks over at his new teammate. Ya I got mage sight it was one of the only reasons I decided not to make a move on the van. Thought with what you two have with magic and cyberware that you guys might have a way for me to get into the shadow life. So is there anything in particular you want me looking for? Icer looks over at the construction zone as he drags on his black smoke.

I dunno really, take a look around, see if there is anything of note. Guess we won't know what we're looking for until we see it.

Icer switches his vision over to the astral and scans the area to see if anything pops out at him.


I'll roll perception first then Assensing use what ever roll you think fits Cr4kp0t

Perception (Visual) 1(3) + Int 4 = 7

http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4434456/ 3 hits

Assensing 1 + INT 4 = 5

http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4434460/ 3 hits


After Icer's first scan of the area to see if anything stood out he decides to keep his eyes searching the astral, unless he sees a good reason to stop. Ok I'll keep any eye on the astral overlay, I'll let you know of anything interesting.

@ Scawire:

[spoiler=Assensing Results]
As you open your mind to examine the mists of the astral plan your vision is filled and you suddenly see everything clearly.
The grey objects of the buildings encasing the vibrant auras of the the local flora; the tress swaying in the subtle breeze. The earth is bold and the park is alive with movement. you see a few aura and signatures around the park as you examine them you are able to ascertain:

There are many astral being present in the park mostly benign simple plant spirits savoring the lush vibrant aura of the local pant life they pay you no attention and all have a low force and seem at peace and relaxed.

There is one watcher spirit that seems confused and is patrolling the park looking for something and failing.

There is a hobo on one of the park benches he is seriously unwell and severely depressed.

Ok guys I got my astral eyes open nothing right now screaming at me that needs to be double checked. Icer blows out a puff of smoke giving the watcher in the area a second look. Ah might be nothing but those guys can also be dangerous, best keep an eye on him and see if more arrive. Icer will fallow the other two runners since his is the wingman on this part of the run.

As they continue to stroll through the park Lynx forwards snapshots to the team from his eyes showing the vantage points he spotted.  "There are certainly some good spots to watch the park.  Perhaps this will be a better place to meet our associate than we originally thought... especially if it quite after dark."

*As long as the park is mostly empty we should be able to snatch the professor and find some cover in the trees long enough to make it to the van.*

Icer switches over to his normal vision to check out the pics he was sent, right after he gives them the once over he shifts back to his astral sight. Icer loosens the blue silk tie he is wearing inorder to relay a bit as the three take a stroll through the park.
