File 1-4: Rollout

[Image: 01XNOMF.png]


The proxy tries to catch your attention, her body angular and sharp contrasted with her silly body language. You poke your tongue at her.

Savvy: Sup.

Cevo: Not much. You caught us just as we were wrapping up. You and Justicia about to head out?

Savvy: Busy day for the two of us.. Doing something a little different today?

You gesture to the top of your head. The proxy leans just a little closer to give you a good look.

Cevo:  Like it? Went for a bunny look, something new.

Savvy: Stick with it for a bit, think you're onto something.

Cevo: Maybe, think I could push it a bit further. Wanna drop by and workshop after?

Savvy: Maybe, depends how day plans go. How's the other guy?

Cevo: Viche? Moody, doesn't like me bringing over friends lately.

Savvy: Got caught?

Cevo: I'm allowed! They just get so... doom and gloom, you know? "My proxy's got more rizz than me!" I can introduce you to people! You can ask!

Justica: Um...

The bird raises his hand, looking to interject. Cevo points over to him.

Cevo: Sup.

Justica: Are you... seeing people without your source involved?

Savvy: She's allowed? Dude-

Cevo: It's no big deal, relax. Yeah, serious right now but..

Justicia: Anyone in particular?

She turns her head toward you.

Savvy: Yeah well..

Justicia: O-oh! Just.. don't mean to be rude, not something I've seen much of. Guess I've heard stories here and there...

Cevo: Know you don't, you're fine. Gotta say though, this one here's clearly got a type..

You turn away from the two of them toward Despina, eyes begging for help and only getting a playful shrug in return.

Savvy: I just... connect better with-

Despina: You don't have to explain yourself. Mr. Justicia...

Justicia: Y-Yes?

Despina: I'm goin to send you ahead since you've been briefed. Cevo will give you your routing options.

Justicia: Of course. Um...

The proxy turns toward a laptop set to the side and pulls up a map.

Cevo: Keep to the rooftop routes, detour through safehouse if you can. Objectives done in strict order, you'll be fed info when to be close to the rendezvous point.  Lower routes are too risky, under construct and a massive hazard. You get stuck there, little we can do but hope someone can scoop you on time.

Justicia: Mm..

Cevo: Main roads are high security, setting up for a parade tomorrow so they gotta watch out for people pulling a stunt.... you remember all that?

Despina: Of course he can, we're trusting him with all these tasks for a reason.

Justicia: Mm! I'll keep it quick and simple.

The masked sorceress passes the bird a card, the foxy mask they now wear matching the more serious tone of their word.

Justicia gives a little wave to the three of you, sword on hip rattling against his belt the entire way out.

Savvy: So how about me?

Cevo: Uh.. I mean I'll feed you details too but for now... gonna have to go around til you reach the north central stop. Can't have you both calling attention by sharing the same routes.

Savvy: Figures...

Despina: You're smart, you'll figure it out. Could always do your usual...

Savvy: Yeah.  Anything to look out for while carrying the goods today?

Despina: Normally I'd say look for someone who bares the same mark as the case but.. one of our rivals on the search for it also has it. Heed caution.

Savvy: Who's that exactly? Haven't told me much.

Despina: Potentially a affiliate group of Santanaware. There's a bit of a fixation on collecting this type of old tech.

Savvy: that being?

Despina: To be honest? Not entirely sure. Its a weapon and metal detectors don't like it though.. also try to keep the temperature monitored.

Savvy: Wait, why?

Despina: Contains a type of smart slime as a heat sink, bit of a innovative quirk back then that never caught in as much as it should've. So...

Savvy: Keep things clean.

Despina: please.. Cevo?

Savvy: Train route?

Cevo: Knock yourself out, just uh..

Despina: We can't give you extra pay for choosing a more hazardous route.  Letting you know.

Cevo:  Could take them to eat.

Despina: Maybe, off the record though. More arcane leaning options are also-

Savvy: I'll be fine.

Despina: You didn't let me finish.

Savvy: I'm not gonna get shoved in some portal or walk through paintings or whatever, I'll take my chances.

Despina: Ah.. well.. I could offer you somethin extra as reward for your time if you really have to but-

Savvy: Off the record, like you said.

Despina: Mm.. they don't like me paying people extra for methods they don't approve of on top. Safety hazard.

Savvy; I get it... you changed outfits.

Despina: Heading out myself, going to be negotiating toward some potential partnerships. It'll be okay.

Savvy:.. Stay safe.

Despina: Me? Always.

The masked mage slides over a card to you as well.

Despina: You know what to do with this.

Savvy: Yeah. I'll be back before dark.

Despina: Mm..

You start heading out, giving a wave to both of them. Cevo returns a flirty gesture while Despina gives you a little subtle bow of the head. As you exit, the sound and smell of the city rolls in. It grows stronger, louder as your little path through the alleyways takes you toward the bustling streets.

This is home.
