>>>>>[What armoured stuff you need.  I can help you with some links to a decent clothes shop that sells armoured vests and that don't ask too many questions.  If you want armoured vehicles, not only will 2000 not be enough, but I can't help you with that.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Good news! I'm alive! They didn't expect me to be. Apparently my job was a suicide run. Seriously. Elvish mouths dropped. But they underestimate the Dragonslayer's gifts!... it was mostly due to the abiliity I have to walk without making noise. But my job went off without a hitch. Stuff happened. Long story short, Holloweeners are dead in a gang skirmish and now I have some rep going or something. Bad news. The job I was given was, I guess it was meant to be ATTEMPTED, wetwork. And when I got back my fixer looked at me like he thought wetwork would be something I would be good at. Well I mean I know some criminal psychology and I know a girl with access to some forensic tech but... uh... maybe I don't wanna be an assassin. Can someone get me a job that doesn't involve, exclusively, killing metahumans so I can stop this ball before it gets rolling? PS. Kitten I sent you a message about a place to meet. Hope you like ramen! And I will bring the beer so don't worry.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Just crickets? Ive eaten a hell of a lot worse and liked it. Chinatown has... you know at risk of having a considerable amount of jokes at my expense maybe its best I leave this to the imagination. I'll wear the armor. I found this great specialty lined coat. It looks badass. Also apparently my word about that "traceless step" thing went viral. How am I the only adept who has this? Or are none of them using it? Ive got a TON of wetwork jobs for me through my fixer. Apparently gangers who are competing for turf. I don't know if I like this. But I need the rent. Crap. Well I might as well accept this. None of the other fixers want anything to do with me anyway... Ok! Look on the bright side... damnit.]<<<<<
