I give her 150 nuyen.  Well if we are allowed to touch I'm next and you can do my other friend after that.

[Mercy Merchant]

Kandy look amazed at the amount you are paying.  "Wow.  Alright, for that amount you can touch anywhere you like and I will fuck all three of you, if you like and are into that."  The expression on Corbin's face says that he could be very much into that and Shelly gives a low moan at the thought.

[Ennui]

Well...chop chop then.  Shelly keep an eye outside for our guests.  I let my friends enjoy and will accept petting and licking but I'm keeping my pants on.  The others can do as they want.  I'll do some reagent gathering afterward the meet too.

[Mercy Merchant]

Corbin clearly does not want to keep his pants on and lets Kandy do him expertly.  She has probably done this many times for clients but she makes it seem special.  Shelly comes back to the booth after Corbin stumbles out to relieve her and she, too, does not keep her pants on.  Kandy gives you a look and a smile and whispers to you that you can come visit her any time and she will take care of you.  Corbin pokes his head in and says that a bunch of bikes have just roared into the area and seem headed to the garage across the street.  Kandy nods, "That will be them.  Bunch of noisy bastards will be all over this place in about twenty minutes."

[Ennui]

Well good timing then pet.  We best make ready for a visit.  Send anyone looking for us over here would you?

You know I didn't mean you guys had to leave.  I just meant Shelly should keep an eye on the drone feed, but this works too.

I keep an eye on the door and watch for anyone who might be looking for us.

[Mercy Merchant]

Kandy smiles at all three of you, giving you a wistful look, and pushes the buttons to stop the music and cancel the screen.  She steps away from the booth and goes back to work on the floor.  Just then, there are loud noises as several men wearing gang jackets enter the club, headed for the stage area.  The girls on the floor yell and wave at them and the other patrons make room.  During the jubilation, a woman walks into the bar, accompanied by several more men.  They are quieter and from your vantage point you think that you see the locals, including the two large bouncers, move aside to give the group lots of space, even in a crowded room such as this is.  The girl has long, dark hair and you can see the handles of two swords poking up above her shoulders from her back.  She moves to a central location and stands, scanning the room then stops as she faces your booth.  Her face remains expressionless as she nods to her companions and sets off in your direction, leaving them to sit at a couple of tables where they can observe you.

[Ennui]

Hi.  You must be Jessie.  I've heard good things about you.  Would you like a drink?  I order a round for everyone and turn back to Jessie grinning.  I have a business proposition for you.

I slide the packet of goodies over to Jessie and continue.  This is pharmaceutical grade cram mostly, there's some bliss and eX in there too to give you a sampling of the other things I can do, I find cram is my best seller though.  This is a gift to you, in exchange for listening to my proposal such as it is.

I would like to provide pharmaceuticals to you in bulk.  You can use them for whatever you want, sell to your gang, your more discerning clientelle, even expand your sphere of influence if you think you are able.  I will sell bulk to at 80% of street and you can keep the difference.  Are you interested?

[Mercy Merchant]

The woman does not smile but she does reach out and take the offered package.  "I like business deals that might benefit me.  Tell me more about these drugs and how much you can provide."

[Ennui]

I shrug.  My drugs speak for themselves.  Have them tested or try them out, that's what the samples are for, but it's top shelf stuff.  I can provide conservatively 1500 doses a week, though most people prefer to commit to something a bit smaller at first.  If you can move that much I will most certainly make you a priority though.  Though if you can move that much I would suggest coordinating with me so that my customers aren't stepping on each others toes.  Bad for business all around you know.

[Mercy Merchant]

The woman does smile at that, showing even, white teeth.  "No, I think that I will go for something smaller than 1500 at first.  Say 300?  Will you need the current price up front?  If so, I may have to start smaller until I can get the first ones sold.  Running a gang in the Barrens is not exactly a money tree, and my.......predecessor......was not particularly good with finances.  Or discipline.  Or just about anything that did not include riding a bike, drinking lots of whiskey, and laying whores, all of which he excelled at.  Even with him now out of the picture, it is taking time to get things organized here.  So, can I take the first shipment on spec and pay you as they sell?"

[Ennui]

That type seems to be normal around here.  I don't know how people like that manage to stay in power.

Unless you have something you'd like to use as collateral until you are more liquid 300 seems a bit naive of me.  I could cut you a deal on 100 you pay half on delivery then you pay me in advance for each batch after that until you can afford to pay in full.  Does that work for you?

[Mercy Merchant]

The woman shrugs.  "Not much to use as collateral.  I will take these and have them analyzed and will randomly select a few samples from every batch you deliver to be tested.  I can get back to you tomorrow afternoon about accepting the deal or not.  I will accept your terms for now and will have a deposit ready for you if the deal is a go.  Good enough?"

[Ennui]

I hand over my com code.  Sounds good.  I look forward to doing business with someone more...disciplined than usual.  Oh, and people call me Lizzie.

I head back to home territory with Shelly and Corbin and pick up my supplies for Pulse.  Thanks for the escort loves.  I'm heading to Pulse, you two have fun.

[Mercy Merchant]

Corbin smirks.  "Yeah.  Call me if you ever need an escort back to that bar."  As the three of you  split up, Shelly looks thoughtful.  "Did anyone else think those two were eerie?  I mean Jess and Jessie seemed so much alike to me.  Almost uncanny.  Anyway, luck to you tonight."

The pulse is hopping when you walk through the door; men and women filling the dance floor and most of the tables already occupied.

[Ennui]

Yeah I noticed that too Shelly.  Even their names were similar.  Perhaps they are part of some weird Jessie order, trained by a Jessie master in the ways of the fierce.  Even I groan at the pun, then laugh and wave as I leave for Pulse.

I set up at my regular table and watch the crowd for a bit.  The power of the Seductress is strong here as usual but something seems to have changed in the air.  I flex my magic muscles a bit and find that my overall strength has increased.  The seductress must be pleased.  I put in call to my Talismonger Red Eye Jill.

>>>Hey Jill, it's Lizzie.  Looking for a spell focus or two, big ones, would normally run 20k legit.<<< 

OOC not sure how you handle RP for magic ratings if it would be okay to just say  level 5 or it needs to be more esoteric.
