Club Penumbra.  Is there a hotter spot in Seattle this evening?  Not once these ladies arrive.  Private booth in the back for the Green party, complete with White Noise generator and booth jammer.
That's just like... your opinion, man.

As Tanya moves with Mother through the crowd at the club, she recognizes some of the people present.  Lady Tanya Marisart is fairly well known on both the club and social circuits.  She has cultivated a persona that is at home in these places because it gives her access to people that have things that she can steal.  She stops several times for cheek bussing and to introduce her companion.  Tanya's smile for each of them is genuine and promising as she effortlessly moves through the crowd to the booth indicated by the ARO provided by the hostess.  When they arrive she sits and moves over so that Mother has the better view of the club.  Tanya points out the hidden drink and service console that allows them to order without leaving the booth.  "We are a bit early and I did see several of the people looking at you and wondering who you really are.  By protocol, we will not be bothered her in this booth, but feel free to go out and mingle if you want."  She points off in a direction.  "And to cover the really important stuff, the loo is just over there."

Kumiho sits in the reserved room in the back of Penumbra. While he waits for his team and makes a simple AR 3D map of the Return Safe LTD building with labels mark what security features they know of from observations and the map he found online. He has also added silhouettes of the nearby buildings for reference. He know there is a lot to this they still don't know, but this might be the best they will be able to do. Once done, he will set the image on standby on his commlink until everyone gathers and then activate the ARO after everyone has settled so that it floats in AR above the center of the table.


ARO Creation: 7d6t5 4



Welcome. How was shopping; I guess you were not followed? Kumiho greets the others as they appear. By this time he has already ordered and drinks a Vietnamese Coffee and rum smoothie with his burger and fries. He is dressed in street trendy casual wear as usual.

Tanya nods at Kumiho.  "Nice choice of a place to meet.  You look nice in that."

Kumiho nods, Lyle would meet me here at times. He was a traditionalist - the Penumbra was a second home to many runners he would say. It should always be that way. I felt it was an appropriate choice.

Mother ordered a drink with fruit juice and an umbrella with skewered fruit on it.

"So what's the plan? I can give us spirit concealment and maybe a couple invisibility but it won't work on the spirits we'll have to try to avoid them. Then I guess tanya and Kumiho open the doors and then what?" said Mother

Tanya nods.  "We can get in.  From what was said earlier, it might be possible for our awakened to alert us when the spirits are watching.  Yes?"

Kumiho punches up the layout he made earlier into AR life. Using a AR stylus, he rotates the building - highlighting the entry points that they observed the previous day.

All I need is to be within some link into the building's security pan. From there I can worm my way in; though it would be easier from the security room itself. I added the cameras we say from when you entered the building and socialized with Steelbit, but there is still much about the building that we don't know. For instance, we don't know how much the interior of the building has changed from the layout of the building on record.

Looking to the groups awakened members i don't know much about spirits or magic, but I imagine that they operate much like real guards and move about in a pattern of sorts. So if we can see the pattern then we can known when they might appear at any given point, correct?

Looking to Tanya, Since you have experience with silent entries -  which entry point do you feel is best?

Mother nods.

"Spirits are somewhat like human guards but less predictable honey. We can watch out for them and if there is cover try to keep it between us and them." said Mother sipping her drink.

Tanya looks carefully at the hologram, her earlier carefree attitude replaced by one of studious professionalism.  She has Kumiho turn it in several directions, stopping it to look at one place before moving on to the next.  She even has the building rotated so that she can see the rooftop.  She asks for the scale of the hologram.  When done she looks up.  "Very well done, Kumiho.  You really are an artist.  Thank you."  In turn she points to three places on the hologram, letting the others see them as she talks.  "If I were going in solo I would prefer to use this small hatch on the roof.  But it sounds like Kumiho might be coming along for the fun, and that might present a difficulty.  The chute from the hatch is quite small for a number of feet.  Do you have any acrobatics or gymnastics skills that can assist you in moving through a narrow opening?  If not, I think that leaves us with two main avenues of approach; this ventilation access point here and this window, here.  I intuitively dislike windows because they are so obvious an approach that they are unusually well guarded by sensors.  The vent is also obvious, but harder to manage from a thief's standpoint, so is sometimes not guarded as well.  It also has the narrow size disadvantage, but it appears to be a bit wider than the roof hatch.  Given who we saw at the building, I think it safe to assume that the sensors will be bloody top notch, no matter which entry point we choose.  I have some devices that can help us defeat some sensors and Kumiho can assist with the others.  Comments or questions?"

Mother raises her hand.

"How are we getting on the roof? I could levitate us up there honey but we might as well hoot off fireworks honey the way we'll shine on the astral honey." said Mother.

I had assumed that more than one of us were going in. I'm sure whatever data we are looking for will be on a secured offline system - so i'll have to go in as well. But I don't have any training in gymnastics or the like. But sensors on a door or window can be bypassed.

Listening to mother Kumiho nods, yes, I believe we might want to stick to mundane approaches to the getting in, so as to not get noticed by spirits watching on the outside.

"Then the window might be best.  So just who is coming along inside?"

"Whilst I'm not averse to coming inside, and have some training to assist Tanya, I might be better as a reserve force in case the shit hits the fan. If necessary I can present a certain amount of shock and awe but that has its own drawbacks given the location"

Kachina wasn't dressed in the most fancy clothes or evening suits. She was only adorning her typical long coat that passably hid her machine gun when on a run. Her NAN Jewelry, face painting and skin color made her heritage very obvious. But more than clothes, it was all about body language. Kachina entered with a confident stance, a clear vibe of 'do-not-mess-with-me' followed her with every step she was taking. If her beauty would have attract many men to approach her, only the bravest or foolest would have attempted it tonight.

She made her way to the booth; greeted the rest of the team and congratulate Tanya and Mother on their Job inside the building. Kumiho deserved a good pat in the back too with his well detailed ARO.

The conversation continued a plan was taking form. She could feel the tension and excitement of a run about to happen.

I have an idea... can't guarantee it to work, but it worth chancing it:
We don't need to all break in. Just like you mention, Requiem, you and I can stay out as back up. What I want to do is try to distract the Watchers long enough to get you in. What if an Astral battle between myself and a Spirit happens at very close proximity to the building? Close enough to catch their attention but not enough to make it an alert. Those entities are by nature very curious. Let's give them an astral spectacle. Requiem, you look after my body while Tanya, Mother and Kumiho gets in.
