>>>>>[Still a pretty big place.  *Emote:  Raspberry*  OK, I sent you a list of Fixers I know, some have retired to the area for a variety of reasons, but they probably keep their hands in the business.  The ones that are bolded are folks that still owe me from long ago, and don't let them try to tell you it's the other way around.  Hope it helps, I'm not about to go back there for awhile yet, so someone might as well get use out of it.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Madre, your South America job, if you dont mind me asking, where abouts? I have a couple of ops that could use a medic going on around the northern coast. I'm sure you know how the big A treats its POWs.

Murphy, theres an apartment that i use on the Redmond border that i have a few toys stashed away at, feel free to use what you need on any mission. Also feel free to crash there when things get hot as well. The security is good and the rent is covered until i die. Just make sure you clean up after yourself. Also the furniture is rated for trolls since the last time i had my team over a mate was a cybered up human that was about as big as an ork and twice as heavy and would break anything that wasnt up to that standard. Comfy too.

Money, i have a little file here that you might like, its what happens when you dump 100K gallons of liquid propane down a bug nest and then throw in a white phosforus grenade. Also have some e-mags for you.

>>>>>[ I can't be any more specific, Money. He might be anywhere in there by now. He went missing in the Zulu nation, but it's highly unlikely he stayed there. Thanks for the info and the contact list though. I'm sure I'll get a lot of use out of it. I owe you another one.

Wolfgar...it's around Aztlan of course. I might be able to help you out. Still have a lot of contacts down there, inside Aztlan itself and in the Yucatan and Bogota. Let me know, and I'll see if I can arrange things so it all meshes together.

Mirikon...yeah...I know. I have no intention of going to that place. Mmm...scum and villiany, huh? Don't tell me you're a fan of ancient scifi shows? ]<<<<<

>>>>>[I was thinking of a old cartoon from old Japan. Involved a smuggling group in a torpedo boat based out of South Asia. I'm still wondering if someone may have actually founded a town in that area specifically for scum and villainy.

Someone remind me why shows almost a century old are better then today's trids?]<<<<<

>>>>>[Xerena, I'm a magician who follows a tradition based on maintaining a discipline of both body and mind, and use a sword quite extensively. While not all sci-fi from the period appeals to me, the draw of those movies should be fairly obvious, no? And don't tell me that if you were able to get your hands on one of those lightsabers, you wouldn't geek out, if just for a moment. Ah, if only such things existed, and could be made into weapon foci.

In other news, I'm likely going to be taking a trip out of town sometime soon, as well. Nothing so high profile as that jaunt to Denver, of course. More the kind of thing where you round up a couple week's worth of nanopaste before heading on the run. Should be exciting, if nothing else. My last trip to the area had me laid up in a hospital for a couple weeks as they grew me a new leg. Got a souvenir from that one like you'd never believe, however, so it wasn't all bad. I don't like to show it off, though. If the creature I took it from has kin, they may not be too pleased that I have it. Dragons can be so touchy about these things.]<<<<<

He got me the bat'leth replica I used as a model for my weapon focus. I "geek out" almost every day. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[Madre, I'm sending the info now as a secure attachment. The problem with one of the missions is that its so hard core that i'm having to send out of town runners on it, the locals just dont feel up to it. The other might be called off but i doubt it, timing has scrubbed it twice already and  think this will be the one to make it.

As to "geeking out" I would love to have a real bat'leth, was raised as a trekkie as well as on other turn of the century stuff like "Bubblegum Crisis" and "Tank Dominion"

>>>>>[Well, well! Autumn just popped her cherry tonight! Not bad for a Corp Exec princess. I think she's a little freaked out though. She puked for half an hour and now she's been showering for nearly two hours. Meh, it'll pass, or not.

I've been contracted by someone to kill a girl under witness protection services. I think she was a witness for some drek I really don't care about. Anyway, I asked my pals at the UCAS Marshals and after a little bit of palm greasing, I got what I needed to find and neutralize her. Autumn and I got there, I took care of the agents there while she was waiting. Well, I knocked them out and wiped their memory, don't want to upset my good pals. We get inside, fought off the agent with the witness. I actually took a bullet, been a while, I healed it completely with a little sorcerous trick. Then, with the agent out of the way, I asked Autumn to kill the girl and that she had to do it with whatever she had at hand. So they both fought for a few entertaining minutes, none of them really knowing how to fight. Autumn finally grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed her a few times. Damn, there was blood everywhere but the girl wasn't mortally wounded and she succeeded in disarming Autumn. She wrestled a bit with the girl but she finally grabbed a towel and choked her to death when she tried, still bleeding, to crawl her way out. We went home after cleaning up the mess.

It's been an entertaining evening.]<<<<<

>>>>>[MACCALLISTER!  Get your blown up hoop working on that Spam filter!

Good to see she's doing well, Smiley.  Good idea with the "Anything at hand", glad to see she got creative as well.  Few people consider a towel a good weapon, but I've used one a few times.  (I travel with a towel that has a cut-proof center but feels like a fluffy towel.  Great for disarming people with swords or axes.).  As I've said more than once, the world is made of weapons.

What?  People are looking at me weird for being positive about Smiley's apprentice?  She started out trying to kill an expert at the job.  She'd either be dead now, in Corporate Therapy (AKA:  Brainwashing with BLT-Level Conditioning), or exactly where she is.  When I get out of the tank, I might take a page out of Grandpa's training manual and give you a hand, Smiley.  Nothing like a nice walk through gang territory to educate someone on how to use an environment to their advantage.  If you want, that is.  She's your project, until she's able to stand on her own.]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Mmm...got them, Wolfgar. I'll run them by my partner in crime and then get back to you. I just skimmed them quickly for now. They look more or less similar to the runs my old team and I used to pull off back in the day. I'm sure they won't be a problem, provided we can work it into the larger run.

Wyrm...thanks. I have a feeling I'll need all the luck I can get. ]<<<<<
