“I’m curious whether they’ll be able to wring any leads out of those four,” Raymond said. “I have no doubt the interrogation process will be sufficiently thorough, but they might not even know anything, and they know damn well that they’re in no position to negotiate on sentencing. Hard to...

Okay, well I'll drop you an email I can use in the meantime in PM.

I didn't know that the site would be going down, but sure.

“I’d wager that they couldn’t crack the caches for the time being,” Raymond replied with a small hint of satisfaction. The fact that none of the active caches had been compromised was the best piece of news that Raymond had heard so far, yet he still understood that complacency would not serve...

“It’s understandable,” Raymond said in response to Anthony’s comment, “the updated authority hierarchy and chain of command protocol tests they issue these days are pretty dense. Can’t exactly emphasize the importance of paperwork to the grunts and then not expect them to hold the...

No problem. I had a relative visit for the weekend so I was a little caught up myself anyway.

“Sounds like a sufficiently open-ended explanation to serve as the official story for the time being,” Raymond replied as he placed his hands on his hips and continued examining the scene. “My dossiers on supporting and auxiliary staff were pretty sparse this time around, and in my experience...

Raymond momentarily took in the scene with renewed interest as he put aside his identification card for the time being. He surmised that the forensics team seemed to be having the worst of it as far as the investigation was concerned, at least for now. The alley was absolutely littered with the...

Raymond arrived at one of the administrative service concourses at the vac train station and allowed the biometrics module nested in the wall to take his readings before a blast-resistant automatic door slowly drew its two heavy sections apart. Raymond walked through and entered a small...

Sure thing. I was planning on having my character's field of expertise be more oriented towards operational security protocol, counter-espionage, and information systems skills than forensics and such, so the two characters could more or less be peers in terms of the hierarchy, without a huge...

Whoops. Yeah, you were correct about that. Had it ready to go this since this morning, but I guess it never went through. Sorry about that.

“Jesus, can you believe this shit?” Raymond heard the anonymous man’s voice clearly in the sparsely populated café which sat in the lobby of the Twin Nimbus hotel. The floors were black granite and the mugs were white porcelain, both pristine. Soft yellow hues radiated from dome-shaped sconces...

I figure much of the Raymond character's inspection will take place off-screen, I just started off from his point of view to set up his involvement with the inspection and also to have the first upscale environment in the story so far. Don't worry too much about setting up an encounter between...

The call to charge roared through the alley with violent energy as the boldest of the frontline attackers surged through final threshold of space that the SCC guards laid claim to. And after the Outer Rim dwellers had completely encircled what remained of Detachments #570 and #314, a final hail...

No prob, I sort of got what you were going for. And sure, I would be okay with a scene change like that if you would like to decide where it will be and what kind of people it will involve. As in whether it it will be guards, locals of the area, etc. I think I could jump into just about...

Do you mean "finally making their way down" as in finally being finished off? I was planning on doing something like that. I figured I'd wrap up with a surveillance drone observing the aftermath of the scene from above or something, just to reinforce that the conflict has ended since any guards...

Next dice rolls. We could wrap it up here if you want a conclusion to the scene or make it best of 4/5. 24690 24691 And it looks like the attackers win.

The wounded bodies of SCC guards fell to the floor as their emboldened attackers struck and solidified their terrain advantage. The partial cover which shielded many the guards in the firefight that followed the collapse of their shield now proved useless as their opposition swarmed upon what...

Rolling round 3. 24669 Ambushers keep the advantage. We could have the turn after this one decide the encounter if we feel like wrapping it up, or we could keep going to 4 or 5 if you want it to run longer. Edit: Crap, I accidentally cut out the second dice roll when doing the edit. My...

Velez repeated the methodical process of dishing out another knock-knock round and then shielding herself a second time, and then a third. The computerized rounds carved out small openings in the crowd, but the volley of gunfire only intensified in response. The reflective gold shield...
