Once the dwarf delivers his message, Flatline will begin to get a little more into the scene.  He will start tipping a little more and when the girls start to try and butter him up he goes with it, but he will not get crazy.

@Roxxy - You get the mark on the host and you can feel the adrenaline pumping. You can already see the IC scanning for marks, it is not long before they find your illegal mark. The lights are controlled by a small file called lights, to turn them off you need to change all the personal lights to off - you can do so with a single edit file operation.

are you running silent?

[gilga]

When the lights goes off, you hear the security guards moving quickly, trying to spot threats. There is a brief message "We are having some technical difficulty... we'll continue in a few minutes." and the music changes into monotonic trans music. You can spot Candy and her girls and they clearly seem disappointed. They retreat for back stage. The crowd that enveloped move away, people start talking in their comlinks and fetching drinks.

Roxxy gingerly shuffled through the icons as she went to look for the stage controls. Her personal wore the expression of someone sifting through a slimy stack of garbage.

<<I hope this job is worth it. This pigsty is messier than place where we first danced.>>

Gratefully, she finally had access to the controls. For a seedy-looking strip club, it sure had some abnormally high security.

<<This better get her attention.>>

As the groans of disappointment arose from the horny crowd, Roxxy opened her eyes, back in the meatspace. She coughed as she aped stretching.

"Let's get moving before the show starts back up again."

Wait, hack on the fly is a sleaze action. I shouldn't have been noticed. 

[gilga]

@Flatline the stripper that laps dances you looks completely terrified suddenly she feels exposed without the watching eyes of security. She hugs you both arms and legs and whispers "Please, take me backstage before one of these fucks rape me."  Her voice shivers and she is almost crying, perhaps it wasn't the first time they had a blackout?
 

[Crossbow]

Flatline seems a little confused, he figures that he would look that way if he was expected to protect this girl under normal circumstances, and lets the girl lead him to the back.  He figures this must have something to do with the job.

[gilga]

@Flatline  you can never be certain some Jhonsons are especially sneaky, but as you hear the guards talking on how they miss three girls - and they too seem concerned you begin to understand that some people behave completely differently when they think nobody can see them. Back stage is actually the middle of the arena, there is a basement entrance and you do not have any problems getting there.

@All the good thing is that Kyos does not stand out now, the bad: is that nobody seem to be approaching you, Candy and her girls quickly went 'back stage'  to the basement where the strippers prepare to the show.  The gurds are clearly trying to locate a few missing strippers and they seem very concerned.  No one seems to take much attention to you.

"Ok, let's go. If the mountain doesn't come to the prophet, the prophet has to come to the mountain. Let's get backstage without alerting the worker bees. Follow me."
Tipping Roxxy and Duck, Kynos got up and siddled through the throng of the agitated people toward the dancer's entrance.


Sneak: 12d6t5 5 [12d6t5=3, 6, 1, 6, 1, 2, 4, 5, 3, 4, 6, 5]


Remarkably elegant for his heavy frame, Kynos lead the way behind the scenes, keeping open an eye for Candy.

[gilga]

@Kyos, Roxxy and  Duck
It was difficult to sneak downstairs but you somehow manage to do it. You spot Candy and her strippers in a middle of a vocal argument with the technical effect guy. He is surrounded by 3 naked chicks but still seem a bit frightened. You can visualize that it might get physical soon and this is clearly not the first time the blackout have happened in their show.

[Bartleby]

Well, now that we're in, time to let him get control back.

Roxxy let go of the file to let the poor bedraggled techie do his job, and waited for him to turn the lights back on.

[gilga]

As Roxxy release the token to the file the lights quickly go back. Candy punches the tech person right in the eye saying "So now you CAN, get the lights back asshole... you ruined our show." When Candy sees Roxxy she suddenly become all sweet again and say... hey groovy disco lady... how about we continue our party someplace more... intimate. She smiles at Roxxy a very suggestive smile, and moves her body into Roxxy's personal space, her smell is intoxicating and Roxxy has to admit that it kinds of turns her on, even if she is not normally into skinny elf chicks... That smell is just... difficult to shake off.

The rest of you are looking a at the happening and are probobly not sure if seeing candy punching the tech guy - that seemed to freeze in terror makes her even hotter or puts her into the creeper territory. 

[Bartleby]

Roxxy began to gyrate her hips in tune with the stripper's advances. She stooped down towards Candy's ear and whispered.

"Mmm, you know how to make a fellow woman feel good. But before we get down tonight, let's go somewhere a little more quiet so that you can treat me and the boys to a...private lap dance. A little bird told us you specialized in it."

[gilga]

"Well off course doll... I know just the place" she say and lead you to a private and sound proof chambers. "It is completely sound proof... so we can get as wild as we want.". It takes the girls just a short while to get the lighting and music just right and if you do not physically object quickly they are all over you. Delighting you with some very intense lap dancing. You can imagine that the club must charge you a small fortune for the quality of talent you receive.

After a  short while at a peek of your enjoyment (or embarrassment) a soft laughter catches your eyes. The strippers seems completely unaware of it and they continue to please you never the less.
But you can clearly sense a manifested mage, pale fragile and very amused by the situation.
"You'd be surprised how many of my runners hack their system..." she laughs. "Poor Candy I always seem to mess with her show...
Thank you for coming at such a short notice. I am Ivory Tower, but you can call me IT, Before we start I need you to fetch a dwarf that should be somewhere nearby, his name is DemoX, he should have a runner named flat-line with him. Please be discreet, if you accept the job I offer you you are going to need this cover."


 

[Jack_Spade]

Kynos watched bemused as the stripper started her spiel. For an urgent meeting, there was certainly quite an amount of fucking around involved.
"Hello Candy, as my associate already said: We are all a bit under pressure and would love to see what is waiting for us in your private chambers." There was only the hint of an inflection in those words, leaving the listener to wonder if it was sarcasm or mere boredom.

When the ministrations began, he did not resist, but revealed his taser to the suggestively phrased question after the hard object in his trousers.
When the client appeared, he unceremoniously lifted her from his lap and put her to the side:
"You'll need to be more precise than that - or give us their comm numbers."

Straitening his cloths, he walked to the door looking around for a dwarf in tandem with someone who probably was not a dwarf and after finding such a pair tried to get their attention through a short, hard two finger whistle.

[gilga]

@Kyos, IT shares with you the comcode of the dwarf  and say "I know the dwarf but I have never met the doc. No idea whats he like"
