Money in hand, Diablo goes to cook their food.  Whatever is going on with your links almost cost you this lead, but fortunately, money can go a long way to sooth hurt feelings.

The smells coming from the bus are working up your appetites, in spite of your late lunch.  After about 10 minutes, Diablo comes out with two trays full of food, which he places on the table and steps back, clearly expecting you to eat before he speaks.

O'Connor dug in immediately, eagerly and sloppily. Per his original plan, he focused primarily on carb heavy dishes.

[HydroRaven]

Clem sat down with the rest, staying quiet the whole time. Greasy spoons weren't really her bag, and to top it off she didn't understand a word of what was being said. Once the food came and the cook was standing there watching them, she looked around at the different dishes, seeing O'Connor wolfing it down like a ghoul on a fresh corpse. Clementine simply tried to spot the leanest-looking dish she could find and had a taste, washing it down with plenty of liquids after.

Snow digs into the special enchiladas sent over by the Ork in the truck.  She smiles at him and waves as she finds that the food really is pretty good.  She looks at Sam.  "This is pretty good stuff.  How do I say Thank You?"

[Crossbow]

"It's gracias pretty lady," says Diablo in accented English, looking at the group enjoying his food, the big ork finally gives up the goods, "The boys looking for Bacchus mentioned that they were heading for Club K to get back with the Kidz.  Someone named Leo that they were really nervous about seeing."

Club K is is easy to find when you look it up , it is a hard drinking and gambling establishment downtown, though it's location comes bundled with a suggestion that you would have more fun at a juice bar down the street that is inside a fitness club.

[Mercy Merchant]

Snow smiles at the man in the truck.  "Gracias."  Turning to her companions she finishes her enchilada while waiting to see what the plan is and what her part will be.

When they walked to the tables, Sammy gave Sam a quick kiss on the cheek.  She wasn't bothered by playing this up, as she had been doing so during her trid career with people who were a lot less good looking.

The food was remarkably good and as soon as she had her commlink back in working order, she would put in an appearance as Samantha Delavine and promote it on her Pito.

"So, a guy named Leo in Club K," she said when the guy is back in his truck, "either we arrive there as a group, like a group of friends celebrating a birthday or something, or we go there in small groups."

[HydroRaven]

"I don't think we all need to go inside. Some of us could stay outside and cover the exits, just in case" said Clem to Sammy's idea. "And what the drek was that kiss for? What did you tell this cook?" The ork had a puzzled look on her face, but she was sure it had something to do with getting them their next location somehow.

[Necrogigas]

O'Connor spoke up between bites, "If we're hitting up a gang, I should go in." He raised an eyebrow at Clem's comment on the kiss, it hadn't really registered as a thing with him. He turned to to her, "What's wrong? Anti-pda or do you have a no frada...fretra..." A look of frustration crossed his face as he failed to remember the word he was looking for, "A no fucking your teammates policy?"

[farothel]

"I only said that I was his lover," Sammy said to Clem with a grin, "it's acting.  And you must admit, our Sam looks kinda cute."

She looked at O'Connor.
"That might be a good idea, although I would suggest we try to talk to them first," she said, "we need Bacchus, at this point there's no reason to believe that the rest of that gang is involved.  And the bar is quite rough, from what I know about it.  Bikers, heavy metal, that sort of thing.  O'Connor would fit in there.  I would also suggest that we all check their old shows on Pito, so we can have an idea on how they react to certain things and how good they are.  I know it's edited, but it can give us a rough idea."

[Crossbow]

You already have a few files of the back catalog of episodes for Gang Life, though accessing them becomes a problem, as each time you try to look at a new episode for review you get a pop-up suggesting a nice rom-com or family drama instead.

Working around this you figure out that the K Club is one of the main hangouts for the A-Kidz, and this Leo is their boss.  His appearances on the show are infrequent, his lion-head cosmetic mods used for best effect on storytelling, though his instructions and orders are a constant for the bangers who are on camera.  Club K looks pretty wild, with real and virtual gambling and a featured arena for expensive tech toys like drone racers and anthropomorphic gladiators to meet their doom in competition.

[Necrogigas]

O'Connor snorted derisively at the spectacle of the A Kidz, "First goat-legs, and now a cat-faced freak. Is this a street gang or a group of furries? Sammy, is this really what passes for a gang down here?"

[HydroRaven]

Clem just roller her eyes at O'Connor's comment. His lack of class was usually funny to her, but in this instance she didn't have time to pursue this further. "Fine, you go in and work your street charms. Snow, I will need schematics of that place to see where the exits are" said the street samurai, turning to the pale woman.

[Mercy Merchant]

Snow nods, "I can try that, although with this stuff going on, who knows what I might end up with.  So, does that feed indicate how they treat Keebs?"

[farothel]

"yes and no," Sammy said to O'Connor, "if you want to be a gang with a pito feed, yes you have to be special in some way, but there are others who don't make as much publicity and they are more in line with what you know about gangs.  They are mostly in the less reputable parts of town."

"Snow, just go to their public node and there you most likely have a virtual tour.  You can maybe use that to get schematics."
