Clem turns to O'Connor and says, in a low voice, "I found us a loan to pay for our trip back to Seattle, but someone needs to negotiate the price with the coyotes."

"Like I said, deals are easy. Don't worry about that. But we do need to decide who's going to the meet--we've only got the one vehicle, and with the kid, we're not all going to fit."

Heron considered, and said, "If someone will watch over my body, I can provide overwatch from the astral. In case things go wrong, you'll be able to count on magical support, at least. And I have a spirit I've prepared, just in case."

"Alright, I'll drive and provide support" says Clementine. "Do you think we need Red for Matrix stuff too?"

Johnny watched the flurry of activity as the comm links hit the table. He almost reached for a link before he realized no one would really be missing him, no one would care if he dropped off the planet.
These are the costs of being a dead man, a ghost among the living.
He looked over at Heron "I can watch over you but it might be an issue for you to do what you do here. Catch my drift Daddy-o?" He grinned and pushed some hair out of his face as he leaned back into the booth.

Heron nodded. "Yeah, 'sleeping' in a diner isn't a good thing. Well, if we could find a nice out of the way place where I can leave my body without getting hassled, that should be enough. Perhaps a rooftop? Fits the budget, and so long as it doesn't start raining, and the cops don't spot us, that should work fine."

"If I can get at someone's accounts, redirecting some funds isn't difficult.  The problem is one of anonymity; without some way to terminate the money trail like credsticks there's no way to avoid getting caught.  If we could get ahold of some certified cred, that opens up some options."  Fionn rubbed his forehead.  "Damn, my head is killing me."

"I could check out the scene" Johnny stood up and smiled."A walk around the block would do me good anyhow. Anybody care to join?"

An unusual looking individual walks into the diner.  He is a heavyset Anglo, which is enough to mark him out of the ordinary in a land of healthy Amerinds, but his every action seems to radiate “I’M FAAAABULOUS!!!” with all included exclamation points, even the simple act of opening the door and walking to the counter.

His look is the closest thing to fashionable you have seen in this town, and it surpasses some of the bleeding edge styles that are floating around the Club Scene back in the Metroplex.  His heavy Mutton chop mustachios and hair are perfectly coifed, and he even has the latest in holojewel accents, stuff that hasn’t even made the jump to a fashion backwoods like Seattle.

Even before the cook’s greeting you can only assume this to be Rudy’s fiancé Liam, the two exchange a few words before Rudy brings him to the table, looking for all the world like an ambassador handling introductions between two heads of state.

“Samantha Delavine, this is Liam Starcross, theatre extraordinaire and love of my life.  Liam, you of course know Samantha.”  Rudy beams, not quite sure who to look at.  Liam graciously greets your resident media star and leans in close for a private word before taking a seat and moving it next to her at the table, his eyes for her alone.

Sammy looked at Liam, then at the rest of the group.
"Our friend here tells me the law is coming and coming quickly," she said to the rest, "now, is it because of those, I assume, 'borrowed' commlinks or is it because of something else?"
The last question was addressed to Liam.

I'm going with the idea that I believe he's telilng the truth.  If not, let me know and I'll adapt.

"I'll start the Jeep" says Clementine before getting up and making her way out the diner. She gets from the entrance to the car as quickly as she can without looking like she's running away from something.

"I am not sure exactly, I just know that my Thesius got called out of rehearsal today for something that just happened at AresMart and that they needed all hands in for a briefing.  If you are together in this we need to get going."

As Clementine gets up and leaves, Matthew moves to the table, "Excuse me sir, Ms Delavine.  You said we are leaving?  Are we going to the truck stop?"

"Might be a good idea," she looked at the rest of the group, "it's as good a direction as any I guess."

"Not that you're wrong, but split up and go where? This town doesn't exactly have a Barrens we can lay low in for a bit."
