  1. Aug 05 20:02:35 <~zoofman> It's a rather brisk morning today. While most the other Exploring vessels around you have left by now, those closest to you are still here. The girls of both The Elemental Regalia and the Moon Wardens seemed intent on lingering in town a bit for various reasons. The THUNDERCOCKS, on the other hand, had to get back to their day jobs. Other than Shawyun, who stayed behind, not really wanting to leave without seeing Gen
  2. Aug 05 20:02:35 <~zoofman> evieve off.
  3. Aug 05 20:03:58 <Genevieve> "What, not going with the boys?"
  4. Aug 05 20:05:39 <~zoofman> He was hanging around on your boat that morning, as is Gabriella still. Though the former is packing and getting ready to go. "Well, wanted to see bye to you first," Shawyun says as you notice him. "And thank you again for getting me this guy!"
  5. Aug 05 20:05:58 »» Chase stretches a bit. "Back to actually doing our jobs, huh? Well, this should be getting exciting."
  6. Aug 05 20:06:18 <~zoofman> He gestures to the little pony at his feet, pale with blue, wispy flames. It's currently snoozing at his feet.
  7. Aug 05 20:07:22 <Genevieve> "You're welcome, glad you're happy." She gives him a peck on the cheek and a hug. "Stay safe~"
  8. Aug 05 20:08:01 »» Chase looks down at the ghost pony with some thinking. If Ammy's not there he says, "Man, I gotta think about getting her something too, sometime..." If she's seeing them off too though he keeps quiet on that.
  9. Aug 05 20:08:57 »» Rosetta is sitting at the very top of the rock wall installed on the deck of the ship, peering out over the dock and watching the wingulls fly by. She waves down at Gabby whenever she wakes up and comes up on deck.
  10. Aug 05 20:09:11 <~zoofman> He returns with an actual kiss and hug. "I'll make sure whatever I get for you later is just as perfect. You stay safe as well, yeah? "
  11. Aug 05 20:09:19 <Rosetta> Trilloby is perched on her head, and she has Fugue held in her arms.
  12. Aug 05 20:11:01 <~zoofman> Gabriella does eventually walk on out with a rucksack slung over her shoulder. She looks up to you and smiles. "Having fun up there?"
  13. Aug 05 20:11:10 <Genevieve> "Will do. See you later~"
  14. Aug 05 20:12:46 <Rosetta> "Yup! Nice morning for this sorta thing, yeah? Just a last break before everything's back to the normal biz."
  15. Aug 05 20:14:19 <~zoofman> Ammy is indeed walking over as Shawyun returns the ghost pony and releases his winged Rapidash. Gabriella shouts over to him, "Hey, if you're off to White Chord gimmie a lift on your pegasus horse there!", then returns her attention to you. "Next time you're free, swing on by will ya? Any place on White Chord works."
  16. Aug 05 20:16:52 <~zoofman> "Look at you all, prime and ready for work already," jokes Ammy from portside. "I can barely get the others to wake up still."
  17. Aug 05 20:17:17 <Rosetta> "Share a soda before we leave?" Rosetta lets go of Fugue and slips down off the rock wall, warping down to the ground about halfway down and leaving Trilloby to catfall the rest of the way.
  18. Aug 05 20:19:15 <~zoofman> Trilloby does indeed catfall and land back on your head. Gabriella can't help but laugh at it. "Alright, sure."
  19. Aug 05 20:21:52 <Rosetta> "Shiny." Rosetta grins and dashes into the boat's interior to grab two creme sodas, or one creme soda and whatever Gabby seems to have preferred over the past few days.
  20. Aug 05 20:22:30 <Chase> "Hey, there you are." he grins, then sighs. "More out of necessity, really. Everyone's kind of had it rough, haven't they? Heard from Saryx that your sis wasn't feeling well... so give her my best, alright? I worry about her, sometimes... As for you..." he smiles. "I wanted to let you know I had a great time with you. I don't when we'll get to see each other next, but next time
  21. Aug 05 20:22:30 <Chase> we get some time to ourselves, how about we do something you like?" he steps forward, embracing and kissing her briefly, then steps back, grinning again.
  22. Aug 05 20:22:31 <Rosetta> "By the way, that club soda and protein powder thing is like...soda heresy. But I'll accept it, just for you."
  23. Aug 05 20:23:56 <~zoofman> "...Soda heresy." Gabriella is dubious, but grinning none the less.
  24. Aug 05 20:23:57 <Chase> *don't know when
  25. Aug 05 20:25:55 <~zoofman> Ammy seems a bit reluctant to let go, but eventually does step back as well. "I had a wonderful time as well! Anna's a bit under the weather at the moment...I think whatever they slipped into the drinks that night wasn't very kind to her stomache, but she'll be alright. We're going to stay around here a while and let her weather it out."
  26. Aug 05 20:26:07 »» Chase nods.
  27. Aug 05 20:27:03 <~zoofman> "Just stay safe, alright? What happened this weekend feels like the start of something larger than life, and you guys are at the center of it."
  28. Aug 05 20:27:54 <Chase> "Yeah... I'd be lying if I said I wasn't apprehensive of what could be on the way. We kind of picked the damndest team initiatives, huh?" he tries to laugh it off.
  29. Aug 05 20:28:08 <~zoofman> "I can think of a thing or two for when we do meet again, though," she continues grinning and sounds rather chipper, but you can see the worry in her eyes.
  30. Aug 05 20:28:47 <Chase> "Thatta girl. Don't worry, we'll manage and then be back to goofing off again in no time."
  31. Aug 05 20:29:37 »» Chase can't resist bringing her in for another hug. "You stay safe, too."
  32. Aug 05 20:29:40 <Rosetta> "Anyway," Rosetta clinks bottles with Gabby - yes she only buys soda in glass bottles D:< - and gives her a quick hug and kiss. "tell Norina I said hi when you get back, and assure her I'm okay. Not that I think she'd be that worried about me, but hey she sorta knows how big this all this."
  33. Aug 05 20:29:58 <Rosetta> "And we'll make some time for you to give me some sailing lessons next time I'm in town there, yeah?"
  34. Aug 05 20:30:40 <Chase> "Guess we better start getting ready to shove off..."
  35. Aug 05 20:31:55 <~zoofman> Gabriella doesn't really seem to care about leaving Shawyun waiting and takes her time with the drink. "Your bird watching idea was pretty cute too, you know. We'll make time for whatever when we can. I'll be sure to slip you all the embarassing details on Norina as well."
  36. Aug 05 20:33:04 <~zoofman> Ammy nods and waves. "We'll be fine. You guys take care."
  37. Aug 05 20:33:38 <Rosetta> "Excellent." Rosetta grins wider at that. "Though I gotta admit, the Gastrodon costumes they had were pretty cute."
  38. Aug 05 20:33:47 »» Chase nods. "Arright, later, then..." he backs up, giving a farewell wink, and heads back on deck.
  39. Aug 05 20:36:38 <~zoofman> Gabby finally looks over to the impaitent Shawyun, "Guess I can't leave the Mongolian Horseman waiting forever. I don't think I mentioned this earlier, but I'm really happy with how things sorta happened between us given you're sorta unsure about all this," she gives you a quick kiss and hurries on down the docks.
  40. Aug 05 20:37:33 <~zoofman> And with your biggest goodbyes said, you guys are pretty free to head off whenever!
  41. Aug 05 20:38:01 »» Rosetta gives a wave to Gabby as she hurries off.
  42. Aug 05 20:38:47 <~zoofman> Watching both her and Shawyun try to fit on this poor Rapidash is pretty funny, but eventually it gets off with a rathe pitiful neigh.
  43. Aug 05 20:39:32 »» Genevieve heads to the bridge to get the boat out of port.
  44. Aug 05 20:40:48 »» Rosetta rushes over to the rock wall and gets it folded back down before the boat starts getting too far out.
  45. Aug 05 20:43:36 <~zoofman> Ammy continues waving from the portside as you guys make your way out, as do the girls from The Moon Wardens. The last thing you catch is UPROAR walking down the dock and scowling. "AW FUCK THEY LEFT ME WITH ALL THE CHICKS."
  46. Aug 05 20:45:22 <Genevieve> Gen steers the ship away from Darkfeather and towards Thundercry. Turing floats nearby and Fourier is out on deck as an early warning weather detector.
  47. Aug 05 20:46:48 <~zoofman> With Turing and Fourier's help and guidance, you make great time as you speed across the waters toward Port Goldcloud. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNzXmY0w3Po
  48. Aug 05 20:47:01 »» Chase just grabs a deck chair and practices his guitar the whole trip over
  49. Aug 05 20:47:12 <~zoofman> You see a bunch of Tentacool, as to be expected. And at one point you spot a school of Wailmers and Wailords HRRRRRROOOOIng on by
  50. Aug 05 20:48:36 »» Rosetta finds an empty side of deck and practices with her kusarigama, swinging it harmlessly through Fugue, Nocturne, and Dolore who she's let out to chill.
  51. Aug 05 20:49:34 <~zoofman> Near Port Goldcloud, you also pass right over a large school of Goldeen, Magikarp, Feebas and Remoraids. Beyond that, you don't notice much but the occassional Wingull, bright skies and warm winds.
  52. Aug 05 20:50:36 <~zoofman> Fugue and Dolore seem rather amused by this game of sorts (to them), but Nocturne doesn't seem to quite get it and dodges the weapon as much as possible.
  53. Aug 05 20:52:08 »» Genevieve texts Chione once they're on open water to let her know that they're all on the way.
  54. Aug 05 20:54:09 <~zoofman> Chione's response is [Holy shit already? Well stop on by if you guys want to. Sorta busy today but figure ya'll ain't here for more vacation either], and around 2 PM you arive at Port Goldcloud.
  55. Aug 05 20:55:56 <~zoofman> It's a rather small marintime, fishing and farming township, if you could call it that. Though it's quite alive today as several large shipping vessels are unloading raw materials like lumber, cement bags, and tools. Which leads to it taking a while to get your boat anchored. Doesn't seem to be any wait at the train station, however.
  56. Aug 05 20:56:26 »» Chase looks around as they get a good look of the city.
  57. Aug 05 20:57:06 <Chase> "Man, shit be busy."
  58. Aug 05 20:57:27 <Genevieve> "It's the big port on this island. Thundercry is too inland, yeah?"
  59. Aug 05 20:57:27 <Chase> "Wonder if port's usually this crowded."
  60. Aug 05 20:58:48 »» Rosetta isn't paying too much attention to the surroundings, instead tapping out an email on her phone to Mikhail to let him know that she's going to be in TC soon.
  61. Aug 05 20:59:34 »» Chase just nods and strolls causally, watching the shipments go
  62. Aug 05 20:59:46 »» Chase gets onto the train once they can
  63. Aug 05 21:01:35 <~zoofman> Your response asks if you'd be free to meet later tonight then, Rosetta. Seems he's busy at the moment with work.
  64. Aug 05 21:03:45 »» Rosetta takes a quick second to browse the internet for good late night coffee shops in TC, then fires back a reply suggesting a meeting at the most promising one she can find.
  65. Aug 05 21:06:08 <~zoofman> Before too long, though, you guys are situated on the train, which curves through the flatlands until it reaches more mountainous terrain. It snakes its way up the paths and bends, somewhat like a rollercoaster. As it hudles over the mountains, you see the city, a glistening, gunmetal structure overlooking the sea from a cliffside. Each level of the pyramid is painted with advertisements, digital displays, neon lights
  66. Aug 05 21:06:08 <~zoofman> . It's larger than life, and could easily fit both Veilbeak and Red Blade within it. "We will soon be arriving at Thundercry City." an automated voice says over the speaker system of the train.
  67. Aug 05 21:07:05 <~zoofman> And shortly after that, the train enters through the base of the pyramid, and comes to a halt in the business district.
  68. Aug 05 21:07:11 <~zoofman> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWqCGxm0e6Y
  69. Aug 05 21:10:30 »» Rosetta tilts her head as she gazes out the window, this being the second time she's been to this city - and for fairly similar reasons.
  70. Aug 05 21:10:55 <~zoofman> The city is...well...to say the least, awe inspiring. You're no strangers to sky scrapers and such, but looking up to see a dark ceiling as oppose to a sky is quite an adjustment. Most the lighting around you is ambient, neon, and L.E.D. It's a loud, boisterous place, even at 2 PM in the center of a bunch of office buildings.
  71. Aug 05 21:11:20 <Chase> "...Daaaaaaaaaaaamn."
  72. Aug 05 21:11:48 <Rosetta> "Yeah, sorta regret not getting a better chance to look around last time, but you know, circumstances."
  73. Aug 05 21:11:49 <~zoofman> In the distance, what you'd guage is the center of the city, is a large pillar of metal and light from the ground all the way to the cieling.
  74. Aug 05 21:12:13 <~zoofman> It's worth noting most the pedestrians you see on the street are either rather pale, or obviously have a spray tan.
  75. Aug 05 21:12:36 <Chase> "And you -grew up here-?" he asks Gen.
  76. Aug 05 21:13:13 <Rosetta> "I wonder how they deal with the lack of vitamin D down here." Rosetta thinks aloud, the thought not having crossed her mind last visit due to the urgency of things.
  77. Aug 05 21:14:27 <Chase> "Supplements?"
  78. Aug 05 21:14:54 <Genevieve> "My whole life. Barring we find out that I'm the clone and my memories are all implanted."
  79. Aug 05 21:15:41 <~zoofman> Genevieve would know the pillars at the center are basically giant elevators to the upper levels. And that Chione's crib is at the top.
  80. Aug 05 21:16:23 »» Genevieve points at the pillars. "Those are the elevators to the upper levels, Chione's place should be at the top."
  81. Aug 05 21:16:36 <Chase> "So, we each got an idea of how to go about things, right? This is my first time here, mind, we doin' anything first?"
  82. Aug 05 21:17:21 <Genevieve> "I hadn't thought about it before, but we should probably take to Chione before we make any kind of big play here. And I should check on the robots."
  83. Aug 05 21:19:00 <Rosetta> "Sounds good. I sorta gotta talk to Jeremiah some about what spots in the factory to investigate and if he's got any bugs I oughtta plant while I'm in or something."
  84. Aug 05 21:20:43 <~zoofman> As you make your ways through the city streets, roll me Perception.
  85. Aug 05 21:21:11 <Genevieve> 2d6+3
  86. Aug 05 21:21:12 <DiceMaid-9001> Genevieve, 2d6+3: 9 [2d6=1,5]
  87. Aug 05 21:21:21 <Rosetta> 2d6+1
  88. Aug 05 21:21:21 <DiceMaid-9001> Rosetta, 2d6+1: 9 [2d6=5,3]
  89. Aug 05 21:22:18 <Chase> 2d6-2
  90. Aug 05 21:22:19 <DiceMaid-9001> Chase, 2d6-2: 5 [2d6=5,2]
  91. Aug 05 21:23:19 <Saryx> 3d6+1
  92. Aug 05 21:23:19 <DiceMaid-9001> Saryx, 3d6+1: 18 [3d6=6,5,6]
  93. Aug 05 21:25:12 <~zoofman> Genevieve, Rosetta and Saryx all see a good bit of mechanications doing various mundane tasks throughout the city, and a few working at registers in shops and restaraunts. Not all of them have humanoid shapes. Pokemon based ones seem even -more- common than humanoid, in fact. More than a fair share of robot Growlithes on leashes and such.
  94. Aug 05 21:25:26 <~zoofman> Chase doesn't really notice them much, sort of lost in the sights.
  95. Aug 05 21:25:33 <~zoofman> Though, Saryx, you notice something else
  96. Aug 05 21:25:47 <Rosetta> "Gen do they make those in bird shape?"
  97. Aug 05 21:27:00 <Genevieve> "Probably, but building wings that work like bird wings is pretty impossible, so they'd be for show. I'd put rotors in the flats of the wings so they could still get lift, like a helicopter."
  98. Aug 05 21:27:49 <Rosetta> "That sounds pretty nifty too. I wonder how much it'd cost for that." Rosetta tilts her head.
  99. Aug 05 21:28:57 <Saryx> "Hey, Gen?" Saryx prods at the side of the mad scientist to be, speaking in a low-ish tone. "I don't mean to be getting you nervous any, but... The robots are all kind of staring at you."
  100. Aug 05 21:29:01 <Genevieve> "Depends on what you want it to do, yeah? Expensive, but a toy is less expensive than a Pokebot."
  101. Aug 05 21:29:32 »» Genevieve just kind of waves Saryx off. "Yeah, they started doing that since we did the hookah thing. I'm ignoring it."
  102. Aug 05 21:30:20 <~zoofman> WHen you guys get at the pillar, it's more clear that it's more a column of small, regular sized elevators, and larger ones for vehicles as well.
  103. Aug 05 21:31:14 <~zoofman> You guys wait your turn and eventually get on one. You see a map and four buttons. Ground floor: Industrial and Business, Second: Residential, Entertainment, Third: Residential and Government, Forth: Sports and Pokemon Arenas.
  104. Aug 05 21:32:27 »» Genevieve dials for the fourth level.
  105. Aug 05 21:33:28 <~zoofman> Vrrrrrrrrrrm. The elevator makes its ascent through the levels.
  106. Aug 05 21:34:09 »» Chase watches the city shrink down as t hey rise.
  107. Aug 05 21:34:19 <Saryx> "... And that doesn't bother you any?" Saryx tries to shrug it off, but the robots continuing to throw glances their way does have him on edge a bit. "With everyone having to wait on all these elevators every day, I imagine rush hour traffic's gotta be a thing here, too." His attempt at humor's clearly an attempt to dispel his uneasiness.
  108. Aug 05 21:34:34 <Chase> "Shit, why couldn't Red Blade be this fancy, huh?" he jokes.
  109. Aug 05 21:34:45 <Genevieve> "It bothers me, but short of shutting down the whole city, I can't do much about it."
  110. Aug 05 21:34:50 <~zoofman> On the first, you can clearly see the landfill between the Industrial District and The Drift. The location you guys used to drill down below at. On the second, you see a university campus, large amounts of apartment housing. The third is much larger buildings and estates. And the forth...you're at the center of a large multicomplex, with arenas and stadiums for various sports.
  111. Aug 05 21:35:04 <Rosetta> "I bet flying pokemon are pretty popular here, yeah? Just to get between levels without a wait."
  112. Aug 05 21:35:47 <Genevieve> If you can find another pass between levels sure. Service tunnels, remember?"
  113. Aug 05 21:36:03 <~zoofman> There's a fair amount of people and Pokemon up here, along with the robots Genevieve claimed. These ones seem to be working souvenier stands, food stands, and general cleaning. They don't stare like the others did, and have been noticably cleaned up and upgraded since you last saw them.
  114. Aug 05 21:36:48 »» Genevieve taps a finger to her lip. "I'll ask Chione, maybe she's been replacing the old ones, which would be a good idea."
  115. Aug 05 21:36:58 »» Rosetta nodnods as she looks around and steps out of the elevator, hopping in each direction in turn to take in everything.
  116. Aug 05 21:37:03 <~zoofman> There's also a large 'YOU ARE HERE' sign that has the office of Chione Masri marked out.
  117. Aug 05 21:37:26 »» Rosetta then jogs over to a food stand and buys a bottle of soda.
  118. Aug 05 21:38:00 »» Chase grabs a hot dog or something for lunch and has a bite on the way over.
  119. Aug 05 21:39:02 <~zoofman> "Good Day. Rosetta Whitacre. One. Bottle of soda - " The machine rattles off over a speaker as you make your purchase. Seems they recognize you by name.
  120. Aug 05 21:39:20 <Rosetta> "Holy shit what."
  121. Aug 05 21:39:30 »» Genevieve puts on her stunnas and walks over to the sodabot. "What?"
  122. Aug 05 21:40:00 <~zoofman> The robot looks over. "Good day. Gwinny. How may I assist you?"
  123. Aug 05 21:40:46 <Genevieve> "You just keep on doin' you, robot." She looks at Rose. "Yeah, looks like Chione made these ones."
  124. Aug 05 21:41:19 <Rosetta> "So she programmed them with face recognition for us?"
  125. Aug 05 21:42:52 <Genevieve> "Seems that way."
  126. Aug 05 21:43:26 <Saryx> Saryx gets caught once more in 'jaw wide open as he's about to take a bite into the pretzel he picked up from a stand' position as the robot calls out both Gen and Rosetta by name. "Maaan, that's creepy. ... I could understand Gen, maybe, but how does it know Razor by--" his thought's interrupted by Rosetta's comment. "... Ohhh... Right, Chione works with all these robots,
  127. Aug 05 21:43:26 <Saryx> doesn't she? ... It's still real creepy, though."
  128. Aug 05 21:43:45 <Rosetta> "Geez, she coulda warned us, but I guess this was the point." Rosetta cracks open the soda and takes a chug.
  129. Aug 05 21:43:52 <Chase> "Naw, it seems pretty convenient to me."
  130. Aug 05 21:44:55 <~zoofman> "Chione Masri. Is currently awaiting your arrival."
  131. Aug 05 21:45:07 »» Chase packs down his food and heads on up. "Thanks~"
  132. Aug 05 21:45:24 <Genevieve> "Let's go, gang."
  133. Aug 05 21:46:09 »» Rosetta nods mid-chug and starts off wherever the robot indicates.
  134. Aug 05 21:47:02 <Rosetta> "Sheesh," She says as she takes the bottle from her mouth. "If Chione started replacing all of them she could have a fuckin spy network through the city and see everything."
  135. Aug 05 21:47:13 <~zoofman> These arenas are rather high end, elaborate and impeccably tidy. They look quite similar in design to the ones you saw pictures of for the Battle Frontier, and it's safe to say the same people probably designed them both.
  136. Aug 05 21:47:23 <~zoofman> Chione's 'office' is anything but high end, elaborate, or impeccably tidy.
  137. Aug 05 21:48:39 <Genevieve> "What? You think she doesn't already~?"
  138. Aug 05 21:49:00 <~zoofman> Before you sits a rather cluttered garage in the wallside, filled with scrap parts for vehicles and electronics alike. Two robotic Houndooms jog over to you, wagging their tails. "Bark. Bark."
  139. Aug 05 21:49:53 <Rosetta> "Couldn't get actual recorded houndoom barks for that? I guess it's sorta funny though."
  140. Aug 05 21:50:32 <~zoofman> In the garage you can see Chione, wearing a tank top, sweat pants, and safety goggles. She's covered in oil and dirt and under the hood of a sports car, fiddling with something. Cherry Boy, her robot assistant, is standing next to her with an assortment of tools in hand.
  141. Aug 05 21:51:49 »» Genevieve gives the two Houndooms some ear rubs. "Hey boys~"
  142. Aug 05 21:52:13 <~zoofman> The robot Houndooms flop onto their backs. "Woof."
  143. Aug 05 21:52:46 <Saryx> Saryx was almost about to kneel down to scratch one behind the ear himself just with how they came up to him so friendly before the barks come out. "These are actually pretty neat, these robots." Robot or not he's impress.
  144. Aug 05 21:53:03 <Chase> "Yo! Nice place you got here."
  145. Aug 05 21:53:27 <~zoofman> (They were friendly barks, Saryx :P)
  146. Aug 05 21:53:35 <~zoofman> (about as friendly as microsoft sam can get.)

  148. Aug 05 21:53:54 <Rosetta> "Heya Chione." Rosetta bounces up and down in place, looking over the garage.
  149. Aug 05 21:55:52 <~zoofman> She tries to look up and hits her head on the underside of the trunk. "Oh h- ow!" She pulls her head out and hops around a bit, rubbing the back of her head. "fuckfuckfuckfuck. Okay. I'm okay. Man you guys don't mess around with business time huh? Figured you'd all be hung over still or somethin'."
  150. Aug 05 21:59:04 <Genevieve> "Should know better than that. What's up with the robots up here? You're freaking these guys out."
  151. Aug 05 21:59:18 <Chase> "Yeah, but we've kind of been taking it easy for a bit now anyway, pretty sure we actually have to do some work eventually." he laughs.
  152. Aug 05 21:59:23 <Rosetta> "Yeah, I almost dropped my soda when one of those called my name."
  153. Aug 05 21:59:32 <Chase> "I got the impression this was pretty usual."
  154. Aug 05 21:59:38 <Saryx> "Hungover three days later? Maaan, you guys must have some fun parties here if that's a thing." He almost sounds jealous.
  155. Aug 05 22:01:10 <Chase> "To be fair, those weren't ordinary drinks either."
  156. Aug 05 22:02:11 <~zoofman> Chione points at Saryx. "Well given your lil' entourage you left with Friday I imagine YOU were havin' a fun enough time yo'self. Anyway. Uh." She walks over to a control panel on the wall and clicks something. The garage door closes. "The robots freaked you out huh? Sorry 'bout that, part of a security feature I put in place."
  157. Aug 05 22:02:43 <Chase> "Hm?"
  158. Aug 05 22:03:11 <Rosetta> "Whatcha mean there?"
  159. Aug 05 22:04:24 <Genevieve> "Well the lower level ones are obviously compromised. These ones have better facial recog."
  160. Aug 05 22:05:34 <Saryx> "I'd guess she puts it in robots so she knows which ones are hers, what with how many seem to be all over the city and how many she works with."
  161. Aug 05 22:07:27 <Saryx> "Least, as one means of identifying them."
  162. Aug 05 22:07:40 »» Chase lets the poor woman explain it
  163. Aug 05 22:07:47 <~zoofman> "Close. Anyone on my white list, they don't watch like a Skarmory lookin' for dinner. Those things were a pain in the butt to get safe and operational again, Gwinny. There's a virus in almost every damned bot in the city. Had to bust out a custom O.S. and wipe them all to ensure they are safe - whoever wrote that damned thing will spend five times as long trying to crack the kernal before I'd finish another new one."
  164. Aug 05 22:09:01 <~zoofman> "Of course, tellin' the whole city somethin' like that's going on would inflict wide scale panic, which I'm sorta tryin' to avoid here with the other shit going on."
  165. Aug 05 22:09:03 <Genevieve> "Figured they had something like that. I don't remember the bots reacting to me like that before?"

  169. Aug 05 22:10:12 <Genevieve> "Well, the REALLY old ones might not be networked, but even the ones with Genesis were salvaging each other, so."
  170. Aug 05 22:10:26 <Chase> "Hm."
  171. Aug 05 22:10:28 <Rosetta> "It'd be safer then to not have them all on the same network, yeah?"
  172. Aug 05 22:10:56 <~Chione> "Guessin' it's the same bitch that has a Mewtwo infection in my basement. Next thing I'll learn is there's Dittos in the walls." She knocks on a wooden work bench for safe measure on that one. "I dunno how it's spreadin', but it's got all the hosts of it sharin' their audio and visual sensing like a damned hivemind."
  173. Aug 05 22:11:56 <Rosetta> "Oh that's super creepy. I sorta feel like given that we oughta be wearing disguises or at least hiding our faces in the city."
  174. Aug 05 22:12:42 <Rosetta> "Or, I dunno, you guys got any sorta clothing material that makes it hard for cameras and shit to pick you up?"
  175. Aug 05 22:13:06 <~Chione> "Network, VP.P.N., shit doesn't matter, something's spreading it and it's taking all my attention just to try to mitigate it. The city administration system is a -bitch- to try to safeguard from this thing."
  176. Aug 05 22:13:53 <Genevieve> "Virtual viruses are a bitch. If it was a bioagent, I could at least do something."

  185. Aug 05 22:18:32 <~Chione> "Funny you'd ask that, Gwinny. I'm gonna do a bit of deputisin' and do what the Rangers can't seem to get right this week or next. Not quite done with the prep for it."

  187. Aug 05 22:18:57 <Chase> "What kinda cultists?"
  188. Aug 05 22:20:38 <~Chione> "I'm gonna get the Bad Girls together, arm them, and we're gonna have ourselves a lil' malitia for when these asshats do get into another shoot out. Rangers are doin' what they can, but hell has no wrath like a P.M.S.ing bitch, after all."
  189. Aug 05 22:21:09 <Genevieve> "Truth."
  190. Aug 05 22:22:29 <~Chione> "The cults? Fuckin'...rune stuff, and this stuff from a group callin' themselves the Skull Kids that's all holier than thou the lord is gonna purge the sinners stuff. On top of that there's been these cryptic ones about somethin' called The Unfeeling."
  191. Aug 05 22:23:00 <~Chione> "The rune ones are more puzzles for their recruitment sermons, I think, but haven't really gotten to that myself yet."
  192. Aug 05 22:23:25 <Genevieve> "Unfeeling is one of ours. Loosely speaking."
  193. Aug 05 22:23:35 <Chase> "The Unfeeling? One of the Outer Gods, huh. Might wanna look into that..."
  194. Aug 05 22:24:54 <~Chione> "But. That's not the weird part. Even beyond the virus, the fuckin' machines in town are starting to make a religion. You guys hear about the 'robot slasher' or whatever that was?"
  195. Aug 05 22:25:12 <~Chione> "Good to hear it's not -all- out to kill us then," she comments about The Unfeeling.
  196. Aug 05 22:25:51 <Chase> "Yeah, I think we heard a rumor somewhere."
  197. Aug 05 22:26:02 <Chase> "What's up with that?"
  198. Aug 05 22:26:44 <Rosetta> "This is sounding more and more nuts. Shit, why isn't the Guild sending you more support to deal with this stuff? We've still got some teams hanging out in Darkfeather not up to much."
  199. Aug 05 22:26:51 <Genevieve> "I'm sort of already the center of a robot religion. Just...underground. Wow that sounds hipster."
  200. Aug 05 22:26:51 <~Chione> "It ain't a person bashin' them, like the dumbasses in the news think. It's machine on machine violence. If they can't convert it, they'll rip it to shreds."

  204. Aug 05 22:28:15 <~Chione> "This place is a tickin' timebomb at the moment, Rosie. We call on -everyone- and it could provoke somethin' nasty. I dunno the FULL details about this Sons of Grant and Dandyman business, but if they are gonna get violent, it's gonna be here."

  206. Aug 05 22:29:02 <Genevieve> "How are -my- robots doing? Can you upgrade them to the OS you're using for the vendors up here?"
  207. Aug 05 22:29:09 <Rosetta> "Alright, I hope I'm not setting off the powder keg then when I break into that factory we think Grant's usin' for shady shit."
  208. Aug 05 22:29:13 <Saryx> "Yeah, this place really is a whole mess, isn't it? Sounds like everything we're wrapped up in and then some's all got something in place here."
  209. Aug 05 22:29:35 <~Chione> "Those ones out there WERE yours, Gwinny. I touched them up n' such."
  210. Aug 05 22:30:18 <~Chione> "They're safe, for now. Like I said, by the time any of them even get close to infected, I'll have a new one ready. But really I don't think it's gonna be worth this thing's time for such a small population of em."
  211. Aug 05 22:30:36 <Rosetta> "First thing I'm doing is getting some new threads. Something that looks a bit more local and hides my face better for just going around the city."

  216. Aug 05 22:34:01 <Genevieve> "The factory, one of Grant's recruiting stations, and there's something in this tattoo parlor by my place. Which is kinda close for comfort."
  217. Aug 05 22:34:31 <Rosetta> "Well, the deal with that is there's a tunnel leading up to an old maintenance building, yeah?"
  218. Aug 05 22:35:38 <Chase> "I was thinkin' about scoping out the first level, check out what's goin' on in the Drift, maybe help a few people get into a better faith than the alphabet from hell. Good cause and all."
  219. Aug 05 22:35:49 <~Chione> "The Rangers have known for a while Grant's got a bit of a hot spot of recruitin' here. More thugs in this city than any other, sad to say. Thing is, they can't pinpoint a house or anything."

  225. Aug 05 22:38:45 <~Chione> She thinks over that. "I'm not really familiar with that sorta hocus pocus, assumin' it's more mysticy than techy, but that whole place is a mess to just walk into. Like four different groups fightin' over turf there, and one of em' ain't even flesh and blood."
  226. Aug 05 22:39:11 <~Chione> "You say there's a factory you're suspectin' too..and...what now? Tattoos n' maitenence?"

  245. Aug 05 22:50:02 <~Chione> It's rather unfashionable in this city to show much skin. People don't like to really like showing their fair skin much. Masks are a bit out there, but hooded jackets and scarves are rather popular.
  246. Aug 05 22:50:14 <Genevieve> "Unfortunately, my boss, despite being named Deceiver, doesn't actually control deception or I'd ask for a bit of magical camo."
  247. Aug 05 22:50:17 <~Chione> hooded jackets, scarves, and sunglasses is a trend you're seeing for sure
  248. Aug 05 22:51:09 <Chase> "Kay, so we hit up the shops, find a place to change, and then see what we can dig up."
  249. Aug 05 22:51:36 <Rosetta> "Lessee, I'll get myself a new jacket, more of a military style cause that'll look pretty different from my usual wear. Big hood. Some new goggles.

  258. Aug 05 22:54:06 <~Chione> "The factory sounds a bit expected far as what you'd find there, though. What's this about the tattoo place?"
  259. Aug 05 22:54:11 <Rosetta> "Anyway, I figure a lotta people have got that augmented reality stuff wired into their eyewear, and that's gonna end up sorta weird looking if it isn't at least a little opaque."

  267. Aug 05 23:00:39 <~Chione> "Anyway, uh. If ya'll need to set up camp, there's guest suites up here. And I suppose if you -do- got any other groups in mind who could help we could get em' in by helicopter without raisin' too many eyebrows."

  288. Aug 05 23:13:19 <Chase> "Were we splitting up?" he looks at the others. Probably not the greatest idea, come to think of it. I mean, Rose is probably alright on her own, but..."
  289. Aug 05 23:14:32 <Genevieve> "The more I think about it, the more pressing the Drift seems. If Grant is moving people through there, we need to shut it down so he can't get back-up. Or retreat out of here cleanly."
  290. Aug 05 23:22:08 <~Chione> "We could get some of the bots to go find what you want, yeah. That's easy peasy. Tacklin' the Drift's big on my to do as well. Though seems some snoopin' around wouldn't hurt either."
  291. Aug 05 23:24:56 <Rosetta> "I'm not sure what I've gotta get done other than talking to Jeremiah some more about what I should look out for and where to snoop in the factory."

  307. Aug 05 23:33:33 <~Chione> Jeramiah replies to tell you he certainly is still around! He didn't plan to head out before you guys got here at all. You can head on there any time to talk.
  308. Aug 05 23:35:23 <Rosetta> "Aight, I'm gonna head over to chat with Jeremiah then. You guys stay safe with whatever you end up doing, yeah?" Rosetta slips her phone back into her pocket after making her clothing orders as well.
  309. Aug 05 23:35:43 <Rosetta> "Though you might wanna ask him more about the intel he got too maybe?"
  310. Aug 05 23:36:22 »» Chase nods. "Got ya."
  311. Aug 05 23:39:18 <Chase> "So, let's hammer this out. Who's goin' with who to where?"
  312. Aug 05 23:39:30 <~Chione> "I'll help you get your stuff up from your boat or somethin' after I finish this engine work, Gwinny."
  313. Aug 05 23:42:14 <Genevieve> "Anything I can help with? I've been trying to pick up the slack on my mechanics stuff anyway."
  314. Aug 05 23:42:32 <Chase> "We all agree the Drift is something we wanna look into. Goin' alone we risk getting our shit kicked in, and goin' together we risk gettin' spotted... so probably no easy way to go about this..."
  315. Aug 05 23:45:23 <Rosetta> If there's nothing else someone wants to add for Rosetta or if no one's also going to talk to Jeremiah, then Rosetta gives everyone a wave as she heads over alone to have a chat about her infilitration mission.
  316. Aug 05 23:46:04 »» ~Chione hrrrrms. "If she's goin' divin' into that factory," she points at Rosetta as she makes her way out a door, "There's still a number of things we need to look into."
  317. Aug 05 23:46:08 »» Chase probably wants to get some more detailed info on the Drift from Jerry but is trying to hash out plans first.
  318. Aug 05 23:47:53 <~Chione> "First off, yes, the ghetto's a mess and we could use all the hands we could get to snuff out this wave of violence in it. But I wanna know more about these Skull Kids and what's up with this religion of 1's and 0's. If we could get some recon or investigatin' on that it'd help."
  319. Aug 05 23:48:28 <~Chione> "If this Unfeelin' thing's a friend, gettin' it's folks to show themselves would be nice."
  320. Aug 05 23:48:29 <Chase> "And that's the sort of thing I had in mind."
  321. Aug 05 23:48:48 »» <Chase> nods. So far he and Chione are on the same wavelength
  322. Aug 05 23:48:52 <~Chione> "And I wanna get some sorta info on this tattoo joint too. You know that drill you dragged here, Genevieve?"
  323. Aug 05 23:48:58 <Genevieve> "I can help with those. The Skull Kids are a new face. And the robots, so far, can't tell me apart from the other two, so they shouldn't go after me."
  324. Aug 05 23:49:04 <Genevieve> "Sure do."
  325. Aug 05 23:49:22 <~Chione> "Well, maybe we can make more than one way into that little bunker they got down there as well."
  326. Aug 05 23:50:30 <~Chione> "Shit, you even talked to your folks yet about all this?"
  327. Aug 05 23:50:39 <Genevieve> "N...no."
  328. Aug 05 23:51:12 <Chase> "Once this shit's all over with, y'all should make an app game where you gotta drill your way through the layers of Thundercry and fight off robots and Mewtwos - you'll make a fortune."
  329. Aug 05 23:51:54 <Chase> "..." he senses a sort of heavy mood there and decides to let it be. "You know what, I'mma grab another hot dog."
  330. Aug 05 23:52:12 <~Chione> "Might be a good time to try to ya? I imagine with a bit of a disguise you should be a bit better off walkin' around out there."
  331. Aug 05 23:52:19 <Chase> "Take your time, girls, I gotta think on the approach I'm taking into this place."
  332. Aug 05 23:52:24 »» Chase edges off
  333. Aug 05 23:52:50 <Genevieve> "I guess I should, huh? I've been kind of avoiding it. Haven't told them anything that's happened since I left."
  334. Aug 05 23:56:59 <~Chione> "Or hell could put your head down and figure out this virus for those psychic time bombs. You're hardly the princess stuck in the tower here though."
  335. Aug 05 23:57:47 »» Genevieve laughs. "Yeah, this clone bitch kinda picked the wrong girl to try to put in a box. I work better with a little distance."
  336. Aug 06 00:05:16 <~Chione> After a bit more planning, you guys eventually did get over to the suites on your own. A personal room for each of you, and a robot butler on staff as well. It's a rather trendy V.I.P. hangout.
  337. Aug 06 00:05:34 <Rosetta> Do we get a robot pianist?
  338. Aug 06 00:05:48 <~Chione> Gen's bots also eventually dropped off any clothing or disguises you guys requested. And there is totally a robot pianist by the open bar, with the robot bartender.
  339. Aug 06 00:05:56 <~Chione> You're starting to wonder who actually fucking -works- around here.
  340. Aug 06 00:06:24 <Chase> Dey terk err jerrrbs
  341. Aug 06 00:06:38 <~Chione> As for any potential folks who showed up later, well, that's a matter that we'll dove into later~
  342. Aug 06 00:06:43 <~Chione> (/session)
