Sam shrugged. "I don't have any significant allegiances or enemies. I know a pretty wide variety of people, though."

"I'd rather not kill anybody," Sammy said, ignoring O'Connor's remark, "but I do understand that such is sometimes necessary.  But if possible I always go for the non-lethal option, like stunbolts or the like.  Having people to question afterwards can be very useful and corps are also less likely to go after you if you don't go on a killing spree in their facilities."

Snow nods.  "Good point, Sammy. I can switch to some gel rounds or stick n shock.  Anyone got a line on any of that sort of ammunition?"

O'Connor sneered at Sammy's concern over nonlethal options, but didn't verbally comment. He turned to Snow, "I can get it, but I've been burning through most of my contact's nonlethal ammunition training Torley. Depending on quantity, Clem can you cover any shortages?"

Clem shrugged. "Unless it's some strange calibre, my guy can probably get it" said the ork as she turned over to Snow.

O'Connor turned to Sammy and Torley, "Anything for you two?"

"Not for me, thanks," Sammy said, "I haven't fired my gun during the last run and a katana doesn't need ammo."

O'Connor jotted Snow's order down on his commlink, and put his hand out for payment. He pulled back his hand after a moment, "If we're officially getting buddy-buddy, we pooling cash and picking out a team name?"

Snow does not hesitate before bringing out a credstick and slotting it to Con's 'link to transfer her 1700 nuyen.  "Here is my ten percent.  I guess you are volunteering to be the team banker?"

"I'm in two minds about a team name," Sammy said, "on the plus side, it makes us easier to find, but on the minus side, it makes us easier to find.  I do support the idea of having a sort of team fund to buy certain communal things.  But we'll have to decide what will come out of that?  And how much we're going to put in.  I like your ten percent idea, Snow, if that's okay for the rest?"

"Let's not rush that decision, shall we?" Sam interjected, barely containing his shock that Snow would trust Con as team banker. "If we're going to pool resources, I'm fine with that, but I think one of you ladies would be best suited for holding the purse strings. Snow, can't you set up an account that we can all contribute to directly, or some such?"

OOC: I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything when I read about Snow just blithely volunteering Con as team banker. She's been around long enough that she's aware of his general character, not to mention his drug habits, isn't she?

Sam shouldn't be the banker either, for what it's worth, because a) his gremlins quality could play merry hell with that if the GM decided it should, and b) he doesn't care (or worry) about money much. During runs, as long as he's got enough handy to pay the occasional informant (or bribe), he's fine.

Snow pauses in the final act of transferring the money and nods at Sam before hitting the "send" button.  "I can do that, yes.  Do you think it is safer that way?"

After everyone had chimed in, Clem agreed. "Yeah, I think 10% is fair. It should cover bullets, transportation and whatever else we may need as a team. For the ammo, we can use my guy, he's got a pretty good pipeline on those."

After a short pause looking around, Clem asked "So, do we stay the Nameless Runners, or do we choose on a team name?"

O'Connor raised an eyebrow at Snow for volunteering him for team banker, *Does every thought that pass through her head come out her mouth?* He put his 1,700¥ into the group pool, "The Nameless Runners isn't a half bad name actually, but I think we need something with a bit more oomph to it. How does Purgatory's Interned or The Valhalla Bound sound?"
