Hey, sorry It'll probably be later today before I post. I'm going to see my grandparents its my mamaw's birthday.

 I was thinking we get there like 5 minutes before. Unless anyone has an issue with it, we'd meet n greet and Zippy would decide to stay with Taco and the other cars, but he'd ask for a live AR audio and/or video feed of the meet. The crowd of people zipping in and out and fighting over gas would have him uncomfortable at best in addition to the locale, so he would grab his Enfield out of Taco's trunk. Ya might wanna shoot the escape route to zippy when he arrives too, if we make it to yall before the meet starts.

If we make a hard exit , are we all riding together? I imagine Zippy probably has everyone here beat on driving.

If the meet starts without us, Zippy'll escort Athena to Baba, and then depending on what happens in the IC, he'll probably make it back to Taco and wait.

Although Zippy is fond of Baba, I think he''d be leery around Francis. (It doesn't matter how Baba feels about Zippy, she's Athena's mom so he likes her. He's also not quite right enough to understand that if she wanted to Baba could rip his spine out. He's not oblivious to danger, he just trusts her because she's Athena's mom.) Zippy just doesn't know how to deal with a sharp, suit wearing fast talker. He's not too used to people, and zippy probably wouldn't have had any reason to have experience with a lawyer type or a face type in general.

Just my impressions and they're not set in stone. The bit about Baba is, though :p.
Laereth if you don't want to wait to post you could totally talk to Zippy. If you don't talk to him hes totally probably talking to himself or Taco or something. I'm not sure how far we are from the meet at Zippy's beachside "resort," but I imagine we left 5-10 minutes relatively "late" and arrived 5 minutes early.

Edit: Is there any danger of being "pulled over" en route from zippy's to the truck stop? I'm not sure how well traffic laws are upheld in shadowrun. Although in a shady area like this, it probably doesnt matter, eh?

seems i forgot this.

You can't move forward seamlessly until you tie up some loose ends. Synchronously, today's void-of-course Moon is a stellar time to do just that very thing. Tonight's Pisces Moon aspecting Venus is a combination resonating with the light of love, or at least the opportunity.

Not this early in the game, no. But soon... Why do you worry?

Well I'm not too familiar with the road rules. I know these types of areas have a low level of response time. I didn't know if that also meant they weren't really patrolled or not.

Also, the wall safe thing. I guess I took a liberty there. The place was extra secure, so I thought it wouldn't be too much of a stretch that it might have a nifty feature like that. If ya don't like it, then I can just make it so they're mounted in the wall somewhere with pegs or something like that. There's not really anything more to it than I described though. Its just a portion of the wall that slides down. There's no locks, and its not reinforced like a safe. If someone found the spot somehow, they could probably break it open without too much hassle.

I didn't finish the post making it to the meet because I didn't know if you wanted me to make a navigation test or something to see if I made it on time or not.

Baba is just going to waltz in looking for the Johnson. Do I need to roll anything? Do my previous perception checks still apply?

And yes, Athena is listed as 'Baby Girl' in Baba's comm. This wouldn't be apparent on anybody else's end, that's simply the label she put on her commcode.

it'd be known already that the johnson is expecting four people.
You'd also assume since he wanted to meet all the way out here, he's probably not gonna be comfortable with a video feed.
If you wanna edit your post, feel free kosh.

The way rolls are gonna work is, if you wanna make one for whatever reason, make one and tell me the reason.
If i need you to make one, I'll letcha know.

Doesn't Baba have cyber eyes? I figured she could just show him what she's seeing in real time. If that's not going to work, oh well. Will I be able to hear the conversation with Mr. Johnson?

Baba has cybereyes, yes, so she could just send you the feed. Unless the Johnson gets antsy at the idea of part of the team waiting outside.

If the Johnson doesn't try to stop her from picking up the commlink and reading the details, Baba will share the contents with the group. I imagine Hornet is gonna do some talking once we get some real info to work with.
