"Yeah. . . thanks. You too, Yoake. I'm going home. If that's allowed." Shef shrugged, exhausted. Hopefully they didn't have a mission for him or anything.

[Empiricist]

Shef
"Go ahead."

[Chevaleresse]

"Probably following the supplies in. I don't know how well-informed you actually are on the matter."

[Empiricist]

Noriko
"Wow, you really are a newbie. I don't know about you but if a group of people who look exactly like the people who killed one of my underlings showed up outside my door, I'd stop ordering deliveries. What you need, is this."

She opens the briefcase revealing the various trinkets inside, none of which appear particularly ergonomic. She gestures to one of them a small silvery pill-shaped device.

"Scryer. Careful with that, they're expensive. If they're using something to cloak or bar the entrance, it's going to need a power supply or something, you can pick it up with this. Be glad they picked a private estate, try using this in any city and you'll just get noise. If Faith is a good enough mage, she'll be able to use it directly, otherwise I can have it rigged to vibrate or something. You want it to be discrete and look like something innocent enough. If you bring in anything like a proper camera or sensor they'll think you're a corporate spy."

[Chevaleresse]

"I would probably stop ordering deliveries if they made a habit of sending rude couriers through the television." Noriko said dryly, with absolutely no hostility whatsoever. She wasn't trying to be grumpy, but wannabe horror-movie stars interrupting her newfound free time with her brother and feeling the need to point out her supposed incompetence did not exactly do wonders for her temper.

"How do I know that they're not watching for something like this? I doubt that the people we're after care about corporate spies, but they probably care about Godslayers coming to break their things."

[Empiricist]

Noriko
"No not whoever's hiding in there, the people living there. If a maid started wandering around the house with some gizmo they'd be pretty worried."

[Chevaleresse]

"I know. I meant the people I'm probably going to end up impaling."

[Empiricist]

Noriko
"Yeah, so? They'd be concerned anyway, what're they gonna do about it? Come out and fight you? Either they try and wait it out or they try to make a break for it, either one works."

[Chevaleresse]

"Weren't you just mocking me for being unsubtle? Now you're saying it doesn't matter whether they know or not."

[Empiricist]

Noriko
"Wow you really are a dummy, I wasn't talking about subtlety, I was talking about how they're not going to keep on asking for supplies when the enemy's literally at the gates."

[Chevaleresse]

"I'm starting to think you want a demonstration on how unsubtle I actually am. Fortunately, that would be both impolite and inconvenient. Do you have anything else to drop off, or are you ready to leave before I start working off some stress?"

[Empiricist]

Noriko
"No, well maybe this" she scrawls down a number and leaves it there "It's my number, call it if you need advice or something. Think of it as my professional obligation." and with that she heads for the door.

"Oh and now you use the door."
"Easier going down than up."

[Powder Miner]

Minato rubs the back of his head, blushing himself. Aaaaaand right back to embarrassed he goes as Faith stares right into his eyes. Oh well.

"Well....it's not that I'm dedicated, but uh....well, you know what they say, with great power comes great responsibility, right?"

Faith finds this particularly giggleworthy, grinning at him in a way that is a little bit teasing, but isn't malicious at all.
"Do you read American comics then, Mr. Spider-Man?"

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"I used to, when I was a kid. I know, it sounds silly, right?"

[Empiricist]

Chapter 3 - Seek and Destroy

Everyone
A new week, a new morning, you're now all gathered at the safehouse, uniforms and supplies laid out on the table in front of you. For some of you, namely Minato and Yoake, applying a cover is a must, for everyone else, it's an either or kinda deal. You'll be heading off soon.

So, what the hell is on the table?

((Write-in what supplies you're bringing, things like healing potions, special ammunition and the like, just keep it reasonable. There will be opportunity to resupply during this mission, so just pack what you need from the start or for one or two battles.))
