[7:32 PM] Caleb: So previously you all got out of the temple and reunited avoiding Two creatures you also passed by a ship leaving a building but you all made it safely back to your ship where you start still docked on Iktotch

[7:32 PM] Esren'nilos: snoozled!

[7:33 PM] Zubi: was busy goat grooming.

[7:33 PM] Coil: is going to fly the ship out of here!

[7:35 PM] Esren'nilos: ((I will awaken when I've slept long enough to get rid of that point of exhaustion.))

[7:35 PM] Zubi: will come and pester Coil when she's done with the goats, though.

[7:35 PM] Coil: How are the goats?

[7:35 PM] Zubi: Hungry! They're always hungry.

[7:36 PM] Coil: They are goats, after all.

[7:36 PM] Zubi: Well, yes, obviously! But they're not that big and they eat a lot.

[7:37 PM] Caleb: You take off and head into space

[7:37 PM] Caleb: ((Coil or anyone looking at monitors or screens give me a perception check))

[7:37 PM] Coil: ((12))

[7:37 PM] Zubi: isn't.

[7:39 PM] Caleb: Esren  you can come in whenever you want I will say your dreams had Esren echo and the voice from the pool ((actually give me a wis check))

[7:40 PM] Coil: turns to Zubi.  "Well.  That was... a strange world.  I kind of liked it."

[7:40 PM] Esren'nilos: ((10))

[7:41 PM] Caleb: Coil you notice a ship similar to the one you saw take off  hours ago near the mountain seems to be hanging around the gas giant Iktotchcon

[7:41 PM] Zubi: It looked scary, but the swimming was fun!

[7:42 PM] Zubi: ... I don't think I liked how neutral everything was, though.

[7:42 PM] Caleb: Esren  you don’t remember what they were saying or if you do it is just what you heard at the time

[7:42 PM] Esren'nilos: stumbles in, kinda groggy.

[7:42 PM] Esren'nilos: "Hey, how's it going?"

[7:42 PM] Coil: keeps an eye on it.  "I don't know if it was neutral so much as.... caught between two poles."

[7:43 PM] Zubi: You have sheet fold marks on your face. Good, I think!

[7:43 PM] Esren'nilos: "I have what?"

[7:44 PM] Caleb: Coil  as you continue to fly away towards hyperspace distance you can see it move in your direction keeping a very healthy distance though

[7:44 PM] Zubi: You know, your skin has weird patterns on it from being against the sheet.

[7:45 PM] Coil: We're being followed.

[7:45 PM] Esren'nilos: "....you mean my scars?"

[7:45 PM] Esren'nilos: "...we are?"

[7:45 PM] Coil: Same ship I noticed taking off as we left Ikotch.

[7:45 PM] Zubi: No, of course not. ... I wonder who it is.

[7:46 PM] Caleb: Coil points out a ship way behind you that looks similar to the one that launched from the building at the base of the mountain .

[7:46 PM] Caleb: It appears to be a small freighter but that is all you can tell at this distance

[7:47 PM] Coil: It's another small freighter, like ours.

[7:47 PM] Esren'nilos: "....wonder why they want us so badly."

[7:47 PM] Zubi: Are they flying like they want to hurt us?

[7:47 PM] Coil: They're keeping their distance.

[7:47 PM] Coil: They might be more interested in where we end up.

[7:48 PM] Esren'nilos: "Any chance we can lose them?"

[7:48 PM] Coil: Once we jump we should be able to.

[7:49 PM] Coil: .... but I"m curious.

[7:49 PM] Zubi: closes her eyes and reaches out with the Force to the other ship to see if she can work out what they want.

[7:49 PM] Coil: flies directly toward the ship to see what they do.

[7:51 PM] Caleb: ((Zubi wisdom check))

[7:51 PM] Zubi: ((Save or just straight wis?))

[7:52 PM] Caleb: ((Dave))

[7:52 PM] Zubi: ((THERE IS NO DAVE))

[7:52 PM] Zubi: ((ONLY ZUUL))

[7:52 PM] Caleb: ((Autocorrect thinks Dave is better than save))

[7:53 PM] Zubi: ((18 in that case.))

[7:53 PM] Esren'nilos: ((Your autocorrect is wise.))

[7:53 PM] Zubi: ((That means Jesus Daves.))

[7:54 PM] Caleb: Coil as you turn the ship around the ship immediately reversed direction heading at top speed out of the system

[7:56 PM] Caleb: Zubi  it is a long distance but you sense 1 sapient being at least, as Coil turns the ship and the other ship flies away you get an unexpected feeling of success as if they confirmed that something worked

[7:57 PM] Zubi: ... at least one person is on that ship and they were glad you turned around at them.

[7:57 PM] Coil: ...huh.

[7:57 PM] Esren'nilos: "....I wasn't sure I could sense them from here."

[7:57 PM] Caleb: ((Coil are you pursuing?))

[7:58 PM] Coil: isn't.

[7:58 PM] Caleb: You see the ship jump to hyperspace in the distance

[7:58 PM] Coil: That was weird.

[7:59 PM] Caleb: ((Coil roll me technology))

[7:59 PM] Esren'nilos: "...who would've thought we were so important."

[7:59 PM] Zubi: makes a face.

[7:59 PM] Zubi: I don't want to be important. It's boring.

[7:59 PM] Coil: ((25!))

[8:01 PM] Caleb: Coil as you go back to flying you check your system scans and notice an extra very faint signal coming from within your ship somewhere you recognize it as a very old style of tracking beacon

[8:03 PM] Esren'nilos: "Also dangerous."(edited)

[8:03 PM] Esren'nilos: "...were you important before?"

[8:04 PM] Zubi: sticks her tongue out and squinches up her eyes again.

[8:04 PM] Zubi: Maybe a little bit.

[8:04 PM] Coil: blinks.  "Hold on."

[8:04 PM] Coil: gets up with a scanner.

[8:05 PM] Coil: goes to find it.

[8:06 PM] Esren'nilos: follows Coil.

[8:06 PM] Caleb: Coil it seems to be coming from the speeder ((roll me technology with advantage))

[8:06 PM] Zubi: ... what are you doing?

[8:06 PM] Zubi: follows them.

[8:07 PM] Esren'nilos: "At this point, I've stopped asking questions.  I'm just gonna follow and wait for the weirdness to happen."(edited)

[8:07 PM] Coil: ((23))

[8:10 PM] Caleb: Coil  you find the signal coming from within one of the hover pads to take it a part and keep the hover pad functional you would need at least two hours someone meant for it to be hard to remove and took their time installing it

[8:10 PM] Coil: sighs.  "Someone stuck a tracker in the speeder.  IT's going to take me some time to get it out."

[8:11 PM] Esren'nilos: "...can't we just...cut it out?"

[8:11 PM] Zubi: Do we want to?

[8:11 PM] Coil: not without damaging the speeder.

[8:11 PM] Zubi: ... can we get it out without damaging the tracker too?

[8:11 PM] Coil: I should be able to.

[8:11 PM] Esren'nilos: "What do you want to do with the tracker?"

[8:11 PM] Zubi: shrugs.

[8:12 PM] Zubi: Bring it with us somewhere, set it down and see who shows up to watch?

[8:12 PM] Coil: I should be able to get it out, it'll just take me a couple of hours.

[8:12 PM] Zubi: Or whatever they want to do.

[8:14 PM] Caleb: ((You all stay in space around Iktotch while Coil works?))

[8:14 PM] Zubi: will do whatever Coil thinks is best, in this case.

[8:14 PM] Coil: will take us into a stable orbit while I do this.

[8:15 PM] Esren'nilos: will hang with the others as he works.

[8:15 PM] Esren'nilos: "Will we be able to tell where the tracker originated?  Maybe we can figure out who's after us from that."

[8:17 PM] Zubi: Coil is pretty smart, maybe he'll know.

[8:17 PM] Caleb: ((I assume Coil is monitoring external sensors while he works? If so roll me a perception check))

[8:18 PM] Coil: ((17))

[8:18 PM] Coil: Once I can get a look at the tracker I'll be able to tell more.

[8:21 PM] Caleb: Ships are coming in and out of the system none seem to be interested in you  you do get scanned a couple times but they seem passive just people being safe.

[8:21 PM] Zubi: Maybe they're still looking for Force-sensitive people.

[8:23 PM] Caleb: The tracker itself is  a small  metal cylinder  with the symbol of the Confederacy of independent systems on it and it doesn’t look new.

[8:23 PM] Esren'nilos: "...that's not good."

[8:23 PM] Coil: More Confederacy tech.

[8:24 PM] Esren'nilos: "Which means it's probably tied to that new First Order group."

[8:24 PM] Zubi: What would they want us for?

[8:26 PM] Esren'nilos: "They know we were there.  They pegged us when we went back to the lab."

[8:26 PM] Coil: nods.

[8:27 PM] Zubi: Well, that's true.

[8:27 PM] Esren'nilos: "Which means we are definitely on their radar."

[8:27 PM] Esren'nilos: "Maybe they're hoping we'll lead them back to the academy."

8:29 PM] Zubi: ... then we definitely shouldn't go back right away.

[8:30 PM] Esren'nilos: "You may be onto something with luring them out, though."

[8:30 PM] Esren'nilos: "If we can use the tracker to get them to follow us elsewhere, maybe we can lead them into a trap."

[8:30 PM] Esren'nilos: "Learn more about who they are, what they want, and what they know."

[8:30 PM] Coil: nods.

[8:31 PM] Coil: works on getting it out.

[8:31 PM] Zubi: nods.

[8:31 PM] Zubi: I think so too.

[8:31 PM] Caleb: ((You already have the tracker extracted the speeder is just nonfunctional if you want it put it back together))

[8:32 PM] Esren'nilos: "Any ideas where to lead them?"

[8:33 PM] Zubi: Um... someplace with lots of people. And then maybe we could put it on a different speeder.

[8:33 PM] Coil: nods.

[8:35 PM] Esren'nilos: "...oh, you want to just send them away?  I thought we could capture and question them."

[8:36 PM] Zubi: Well, or we can put it somewhere and then try to see who comes, and see who it is.

[8:37 PM] Esren'nilos: "I think I see.  Coil, you know any planets not too far from here that could work for this?"

[8:39 PM] Coil: thinks.

[8:40 PM] Coil: I have an idea.

[8:41 PM] Esren'nilos: "...ok..."

[8:41 PM] Coil: ((How close are we to Hutt Space?))

[8:44 PM] Caleb: (( two jumps to reach the edge of hutt space ))

[8:44 PM] Coil: Let''s take them to Hutt Space.

[8:45 PM] Esren'nilos: "...why Hutt Space?"

[8:46 PM] Coil: It's dangerous, overpopulated.  And I know it.

[8:46 PM] Zubi: Okay!

[8:46 PM] Caleb: ((You have a specific planet in mind?))

[8:47 PM] Coil: ((Nar Shadaa.)

[8:50 PM] Caleb: You head to hyperspace as you guys progress in the jumps  you notice less and less Galatic alliance ships and the ships you see appear more armed and on alert

[8:51 PM] Caleb: You all would know that Hutt Space is involved in the Galactic alliance but more in a we stay out of each other’s business officially than any actual cooperation between them and the other powers involved in the G A P

[8:52 PM] Esren'nilos: "...huh...I feel oddly at home."

[8:52 PM] Zubi: That's probably not good.

[8:55 PM] Esren'nilos: "...it's not necessarily...un-good."

[8:55 PM] Coil: I wonder what's going on?

[8:56 PM] Caleb: Roll perception or lore coil

[8:56 PM] Zubi: I don't know. It's all really strange.

[8:57 PM] Coil: (20, unnatural.)

[9:02 PM] Caleb: Coil  as you keep jumping you do notice that there are more patrols than you are used to and the planets all seem to be more on lockdown than usual you decode a couple transmissions with some of your old codes that basically are a warning of various attacks on protected planets in Hutt Space from an unknown aggressor and of course a bounty for any information on the attacks

[9:03 PM] Coil: Huh.

[9:03 PM] Coil: Well, either my plan is super efficient or Hutt Space is being attacked.

[9:03 PM] Zubi: ... what?

[9:04 PM] Coil: no full-scale, but there have been some attacks on Hutt-protected worlds.

[9:04 PM] Esren'nilos: "...wow, we have...such bad timing."

[9:06 PM] Zubi: Who would attack them?

[9:07 PM] Caleb: You all come out of space around Nal Hutta which is a giant planet  which is a very polluted swampy green color Coil points the ship towards the largest moon around it which also appears very polluted

[9:07 PM] Esren'nilos: "...charming system."

[9:07 PM] Caleb: You see a lot of ships around Nal Hutta including some that seem larger than regulations and treaty allow

[9:09 PM] Zubi: They wouldn't attack us, right?

[9:09 PM] Caleb: As Coil takes you in to Nar Shadaa those of you who haven’t seen it before see basically the evil twin of a coruscant instead of being a planet covered by a gleaming city this planet city just looks rundown and completely unwelcoming(edited)

[9:10 PM] Coil: Welcome  home.

[9:10 PM] Coil: Hold onto your wallets.  Hide your lightsabers.

[9:10 PM] Zubi: You lived here? ... on purpose?

[9:10 PM] Coil: It's where I was raised.

[9:10 PM] Esren'nilos: "...I suddenly feel so much better about my past."

[9:11 PM] Coil: takes the tracking device and puts it in a satchel.

[9:11 PM] Zubi: It always looks so grimy.

[9:11 PM] Coil: Mmmhm.

[9:12 PM] Esren'nilos: "...the food around here must be amazing."

[9:12 PM] Caleb: Coil you manage to find one of the docking bays you remember being as trustworthy as anywhere on Nar Shadaa is

[9:13 PM] Coil: makes sure to pay the fee with a sufficient bribe.

[9:13 PM] Esren'nilos: "...is it safer to leave the speeder or take it with us?"

[9:13 PM] Coil: It's not going anywhere, I haven't put it back together yet.

[9:13 PM] Coil: BEtter to just go on foot.

[9:13 PM] Esren'nilos: "Sounds fair to me.  You have the tracker?"

[9:13 PM] Zubi: Some of it, but you have to be careful....

[9:15 PM] Coil: nods.

[9:16 PM] Caleb: ((You guys disguise or hide lightsabers and things?))

[9:16 PM] Coil: does.

[9:16 PM] Esren'nilos: does

[9:16 PM] Zubi: does too. Probably gets the boys to help her.

[9:18 PM] Caleb: ((Roll me stealth or deception everyone ,Zubi if they help you take advantage))(edited)

[9:18 PM] Coil: will help.

[9:18 PM] Zubi: ((18!))

[9:19 PM] Esren'nilos: ((Nat 20.   ))

[9:19 PM] Coil: (25))

[9:20 PM] Caleb: You all head out of your ship looking pretty much like every other person on this moon

[9:22 PM] Esren'nilos: "So, who do we want to plant it on?"

[9:22 PM] Zubi: ... I don't know if we want to put it on a person, do we?

[9:23 PM] Coil: It might not be a bad idea.

[9:24 PM] Esren'nilos: "Keeps it moving.  Makes it look like we're going somewhere."

[9:25 PM] Zubi: What if they kill them?

[9:25 PM] Coil: We could find someone who deserves to die.(edited)

[9:25 PM] Esren'nilos: "Or, we jump in to save them from being killed."

[9:26 PM] Zubi: Um, I'd rather save them.

[9:27 PM] Caleb: Coil you are currently near the promenade so it is a rather busy area you can see the levels of the undercity below you and you know there are some casinos and cantinas and some less reputable businesses for Nar Shadaa nearby

[9:27 PM] Coil: We could leave it in a casino.  They tend to be very well guarded.  And we could stick around to see who shows up.

[9:28 PM] Esren'nilos: "Could work."

[9:28 PM] Esren'nilos: "Also, gives us more control of the environment."

[9:29 PM] Esren'nilos: "We'll know where it is at all times and where it'll be when they catch up to it."

[9:30 PM] Zubi: Okay, I guess! ... I don't like casinos very much. It's hard to talk to people in them.

[9:30 PM] Coil: We're not exactly here to chat to people.

[9:30 PM] Esren'nilos: "In this case, talking to people might be a bad idea.  We don't want to attract attention."

[9:31 PM] Esren'nilos: "The fewer people even realize we're here, the better."

[9:32 PM] Esren'nilos: "Coil, if you plant it, Zubi and I can keep a sense out.  Watch your back.  Then...we wait."

[9:33 PM] Zubi: nods.

[9:33 PM] Zubi: This isn't the kind of place where I'd want to bring you to a party anyway. It's too dangerous.

[9:34 PM] Zubi: And the people aren't very nice, usually.

[9:34 PM] Coil: nods.

[9:34 PM] Esren'nilos: nods

[9:34 PM] Coil: finds a casino that would be a good possibility.

[9:35 PM] Coil: Preferably one of the floating ones that moves around a little.

[9:35 PM] Caleb: ((Roll me lore with advantage))

[9:35 PM] Coil: ((16))

[9:40 PM] Caleb: Coil you know of two near here  both do float one is  more exclusive and attracts more off workers Club Vertica , the other is known as a major underworld meetup the Star Cluster

[9:43 PM] Coil: wants to go to club Vertica.

[9:43 PM] Esren'nilos: follows Coil, wherever he goes.

[9:45 PM] Zubi: sticks with her boys.

[9:52 PM] Coil: (Sory, my computr lockedup there, seems okay with a restart though.))

[9:53 PM] Caleb: You all head down a bit a little more into the undercity then back up and you see floating ahead of you a large 5 domed hovering structure there is a line outside consisting of people who tend to seem more well dressed and have obvious protection with them you also see the line is managed by two gamorreans and one human male with a datapad

[9:54 PM] Esren'nilos: "...I might be able to get us in."

[9:54 PM] Zubi: Why wouldn't they let us in?

[9:55 PM] Esren'nilos: "Exclusive looking place.  Wouldn't you say, Coil?"

[9:55 PM] Zubi: That's usually why they let me in.

[9:55 PM] Esren'nilos: "...yeah, I don't think so this time."

[9:56 PM] Esren'nilos: will walk up to one of the gamorreans.

[9:56 PM] Caleb: ((You are cutting the line?))

[9:57 PM] Esren'nilos: is, if the others follow him.

[9:57 PM] Zubi: does follow!

[9:58 PM] Esren'nilos: "Excuse me, we were invited here and we're already late.  Party in the back.  If we could just squeeze through."

[9:58 PM] Coil: lets Esren do the chitchat.

[9:59 PM] Zubi: smiles at the gamorreans and waves.

[9:59 PM] Caleb: ((Esren persuasion at advantage))

[10:01 PM] Esren'nilos: ((15, not great for me.))

[10:02 PM] Caleb: The gammoreon grunts and brings you to the man near the ramp in he is dressed in very fine clothes and looks at you as if you are entirely beneath him

[10:02 PM] Caleb: Man : ...Can I help you?

[10:03 PM] Esren'nilos: will wave his hand over the man's face and say "You want to let us through."  And I'll use coerce mind, which is suggestion, which is JEDI MIND TRICK!  He needs to make a wisdom save.

[10:06 PM] Caleb: ((13))

[10:06 PM] Esren'nilos: ((Not good enough!  My DC is 15!))

[10:07 PM] Caleb: The mans eyes glaze over

[10:07 PM] Caleb: Man : I want to let you through

[10:07 PM] Coil: is looking around making sure no one notices this.

[10:08 PM] Caleb: ((Perception Coil))

[10:08 PM] Coil: (18))

[10:09 PM] Zubi: Okay!

[10:10 PM] Caleb: Coil  most of the rich people in line and the Gamorreons don’t seem to notice or care but you see a one or two  of the locals around watching and are pretty sure that word of a Force user near here is going to get out

[10:10 PM] Caleb: The man moves to the side and motions you in

[10:10 PM] Zubi: heads in.

[10:11 PM] Coil: moves past.  "... we got made."

[10:11 PM] Esren'nilos: does so too.

[10:11 PM] Esren'nilos: "...damn."

[10:11 PM] Esren'nilos: "Ok, we need to keep eyes out, then."

[10:11 PM] Zubi: We might just have to give them a bribe.

[10:11 PM] Coil: It's okay.  The locals might not even care as long as we don't try to gamble.

[10:13 PM] Esren'nilos: "Fair.  ...so no cheating at gambling, then?"

[10:13 PM] Zubi: It's not really any fun anyway. A lot of games are usually rigged and then it's not chance anymore, and people get grumpy if they lose a lot anyway.

[10:14 PM] Caleb: You all enter a large room you see hall ways branching off it is incredibly ornate you see many races all around drinking gambling smoking you see a lot of security all armored and masked all marked with the clubs logo a burning feather

[10:14 PM] Coil: nods.  "The games are always rigged in the casino's favor."(edited)

[10:15 PM] Caleb: Looking up at the top of the room you see a large Hutt looking over the main concourse and being attended to.

[10:15 PM] Coil: ((Do I know what hutt that is likely to be?)

[10:15 PM] Zubi: waves at said Hutt.

[10:17 PM] Esren'nilos: grabs her hand and puts it down

[10:18 PM] Zubi: ... what? You can't not greet the host, haven't you ever been to a party before?

[10:19 PM] Esren'nilos: "Not a party.  And he's not a nice host."

[10:19 PM] Zubi: Hutts almost always aren't.

[10:20 PM] Caleb: Coil this is Plunar the Hutt you have had dealings with himin the past not the worst Hutt you have dealt with but also doesn’t pay well and is paranoid even for a Hutt

[10:20 PM] Coil: Plunar.  He's... okay.

[10:20 PM] Coil: Stingy and a bit paranoid but not given to double crosses.

[10:20 PM] Coil: pulls up his hood.  "Still, I'd prefer not to be noticed by him."

[10:21 PM] Esren'nilos: "Is he gonna be an issue for us if he knows you?"

[10:21 PM] Zubi: Oh, I don't think I've met him before.

[10:21 PM] Esren'nilos: "Ah, ok."

[10:21 PM] Coil: We'll just stay away from him.

[10:21 PM] Zubi: Oh, all right.

[10:22 PM] Coil: It's generally the generous Hutts you want to be wary of.

[10:23 PM] Caleb: Plunar does see the wave and looks intrigued you see him talking to one of the individuals near him

[10:23 PM] Esren'nilos: would like to sense his emotions!

[10:23 PM] Zubi: The ones who pretend to be nice are the worst.

[10:23 PM] Coil: nods.

[10:24 PM] Caleb: ((Esren roll me wisdom save at disadvantage))

[10:24 PM] Zubi: The ones who are nice are usually the ones who have to pretend to be extra ruthless so nobody finds out.

[10:25 PM] Esren'nilos: ((Lost my Nat 20, so a 14))

[10:25 PM] Zubi: Hutts are weird.

[10:27 PM] Caleb: Esren  you get a sense of curiosity then nothing

[10:28 PM] Esren'nilos: "...ok, we're going to avoid him as best we can."

[10:28 PM] Caleb: You all see Plunar look around specifically at the people who have just entered including you

[10:28 PM] Caleb: Plunar seems irritated now for those who can read Hutt body language

[10:29 PM] Coil: .... what did you do?

[10:29 PM] Zubi: Me? I didn't do anything. Well, I mean, I waved, but you saw that.

[10:29 PM] Esren'nilos: "And he saw that and got curious.  I was able to sense that before I'm pretty sure he blocked me."

[10:30 PM] Coil: Okay.  Just... dont' try Force stuff on Hutts.  They get annoyed.

[10:30 PM] Esren'nilos: "......oh......um.....ok, in the future, I will not do that."

[10:31 PM] Coil: Let's go get drinks.

[10:32 PM] Zubi: Ooh, let's!

[10:32 PM] Zubi: If I'd known we were going here I'd've dressed up more.

[10:33 PM] Caleb: You all head to one of the bars there is a  Falleen female tending the bar

[10:34 PM] Coil: is on the lookout for anyone he might now, just generally trying to keep a low profile, getting a small table for his friends.

[10:35 PM] Esren'nilos: will try and look like someone who fits in as best as possible.

[10:35 PM] Caleb: ((Coil perception))

[10:35 PM] Zubi: I'll take a Corellian Twister, please! And one for each of my friends.

[10:35 PM] Coil: ((12))

[10:36 PM] Caleb: Bartender : coming right up.

[10:36 PM] Zubi: Thanks! It looks like a good crowd. Kind of boring though, I hope they've been tipping okay.

[10:37 PM] Esren'nilos: "What do you recommend?"

[10:37 PM] Zubi: If you don't want your Twister, I'll drink it.

[10:38 PM] Esren'nilos: "Oh, you got one for all of us."

[10:38 PM] Esren'nilos: "Sorry, I was distracted.  I'll try that."

[10:39 PM] Caleb: Coil:  there are a lot of people it is hard to make out you see a couple bounty hunters you have dealt with in the past you do at one point think you see some familiar faces but then you lose them(edited)

[10:41 PM] Caleb: Bartender : It has been pretty good tonight many worse places to tend bar than here.

[10:41 PM] Caleb: She places a drink in front of each of you

[10:42 PM] Zubi: pays, with a very generous tip.

[10:42 PM] Esren'nilos: "Thank you."

[10:42 PM] Esren'nilos: tries it.

[10:44 PM] Zubi: ((Probably a fruitier drink, and tart.))

[10:44 PM] Esren'nilos: makes a face.  "Not what I expected."

[10:45 PM] Zubi: Try something else, I'll drink that one.

[10:45 PM] Esren'nilos: "No, no.  I'll finish it.  It's fine."

[10:47 PM] Zubi: All right. Now what? Should we dance?

[10:47 PM] Coil: looks around.  Are people dancing?

[10:47 PM] Esren'nilos: "Coil needs to plant the tracker somewhere and we need to watch it."

[10:49 PM] Caleb: There is a small area where people are dancing closer to  Plunar more central in the room then the bar you are at now

[10:49 PM] Zubi: There's usually private rooms too.

[10:50 PM] Caleb: ((Coil roll me stealth))

[10:54 PM] Coil: ((22))

[10:57 PM] Caleb: Coil you do manage to hide yourself as you see one bounty hunter you know has a grudge against you  Myn Phobi  an Umabaran who you have not had good interactions with in the past

[10:59 PM] Coil: doesn't say anything, taking a sip of his drink as a nearby figure passes by.

[10:59 PM] Zubi: You guys don't seem too interested in that, though.

[11:00 PM] Coil: In what?

[11:00 PM] Zubi: Sex. Well, at least with me. But that's okay too.

[11:01 PM] Esren'nilos: "..........what?"

[11:02 PM] Zubi: You're both really weird sometimes. Anyway, what should we do now?

[11:02 PM] Coil: This conversation is very confusing.

[11:03 PM] Esren'nilos: "Extremely.  Coil, did you plant it?"

[11:03 PM] Coil: ((How big is the tracking device?))

[11:05 PM] Caleb: ((It’s a cylinder about the size of a computer mouse))

[11:05 PM] Coil: ((Does Myn have any convenient place I could stash it?))

[11:06 PM] Coil: ((Or is it too unwieldy?))

[11:08 PM] Caleb: Coil  from past experience you know Myn does have pouches that should fit it ((I would need a sleight of hand check))

[11:10 PM] Coil: Okay, I'm going.  Be ready to... I dunno, run or something.  You'll know.

[11:10 PM] Zubi: Going where?

[11:11 PM] Coil: goes into the crowd toward an armored figure.

[11:11 PM] Coil: ((26 Sleight of Hand!  This is a thing Coil is good at.))

[11:13 PM] Caleb: Coil  with your previous stealth roll and the sleight of hand you secure it in a pinch without her even knowing you were there

[11:13 PM] Caleb: While Coil has gone into the crowd one of the armored guard approach you Esren and Zubi

[11:14 PM] Caleb: Guard: Plunar would like a word with you.

[11:14 PM] Esren'nilos: "What?  Oh, we're having a grand time, thank you."

[11:14 PM] Esren'nilos: pretends to not have heard what he's said.

[11:15 PM] Zubi: Oh, sure.  I'll go ahead, Ezzie, you get us more drinks.

[11:15 PM] Zubi: hands him her empty glass.

[11:15 PM] Esren'nilos: "Zubi, I'm not sure that's a good idea."

[11:16 PM] Zubi: I've only had one and I have twice as many livers as you.

[11:16 PM] Caleb: Guard : Plunar does not like to be kept waiting.

[11:17 PM] Caleb: The guards hand is close to a holster and you see another couple guards watching this exchange

[11:17 PM] Zubi: Right.

[11:17 PM] Zubi: heads over to Plunar, whether Esren joins her or not.

[11:18 PM] Esren'nilos: will go over with Zubi, but try and keep an eye on Coil.

[11:18 PM] Caleb: ((And that is where we will end it for tonight))
