Catch-All for Operation Get Our Stuff Back
Characters: Tony, Sokka, Valdis, Gene, Cain and YOU
Date: December 12 onwards
Location: The Hotel
Situation: Tony is pissed about SI falling into kedan hands, and more levelheaded people have to talk him out of doing something stupid. Once sense and discretion have prevailed, it occurs to Tony et al. that the foreigners might be able to more rapidly regain some leverage in Keeliai if they worked together to befriend/infiltrate the gangs, especially the three major families. Devious plotting ensues.
Warnings/Rating: None so far
[1 - the common room of the Hotel - December 12]
Tony returns from his meeting with Zanru after less than two hours, and he is seething. Sokka had asked him about the status of his job at Stark Industries, and Tony had promised to go find out right away (he'd put off meeting with the new "boss" of SI long enough already). The meeting had not gone well. To put it mildly.
Now he's back at the Hotel, looking for Sokka, to deliver the bad news. And poor Sokka is about to get an earful.
[2 - around the Hotel - the following days and weeks]
Tony had - miraculously - been talked down from teleporting his entire lab and all its contents out of SI and permanently alienating the Metalworker family. A longer-term strategy of insinuating themselves into the families' good graces had been suggested, and Tony, grudgingly, had acquiesced.
Since then, word has been getting around. Anyone who hears about that discussion and wants to ask Tony about it or offer their help should be able to locate him pretty easily around and about the Hotel. That's where he's spending most of his time, after all, since he is currently unwelcome at SI.
[3 - Make your own starter!]
[ooc: the initial discussion will be closed to Tony, Sokka, Valdis, Gene, Cain, but anyone who wants to have their character hear about it second-hand is welcome to post a thread here. You can request a thread with Tony or any of the other original conspirators, but it isn't necessary - anyone can thread out anything related to this plan in this log.
Keep in mind that this is not (currently) a conspiracy to depose the families or destroy the gangs or take over Keeliai - merely an attempt to organize the foreigners so that they can pool information and coordinate their negotiations with the gangs without making the kedan more distrustful. However, this is supposed to be on the DL, so if your character accidentally or intentionally lets the plan slip to the kedan, expect there to be IC consequences!

No luck, I take it. [Obviously not, or he wouldn't still be lurking around empty-handed.] Was there anywhere else in here you were going to check? If you tell me what to look for, we can split up, finish the sweep in half the time.
no subject
[His mock sincerity is showing.]
It's a sword.
[He then goes on to describe exactly what this particular katana should look like.]
Should be on a display rack. It'd better be on a display rack.
no subject
And... this might not be the best time to suggest this, while we're in the middle of a heist on a Metalworker warehouse, but have you tried the Snakes? I'd think they'd be more likely to have picked up loose Foreigner weapons.
no subject
[Mike shifts slightly. He's in peak fighting condition, but even in peak fighting condition one's arms get tired.]
I'm not really on a first name basis with gangbangers, so no. I haven't asked.
no subject
And if we don't get caught and run out of town? You should talk to Valdis about the Snakes.
[She'd agreed to deal with that family, maybe she can help Mike out. Assuming they don't find the sword here, first, of course. But Tony's not betting on those chances.]
no subject
[Then Mike smirks.]
We're not going to get caught. At least, not for long if we do.
no subject
[He will snark back and forth all day, Mike, don't test him. It's good-humored, though. He likes Mike's moxie.]
I think we can avoid that if we get out of here fast and don't, you know, blow anything up. I'll meet you down at the far end. [And he heads for his assigned hallway.]
no subject
[Once that quip is out...Mike is gone. Indistinguishable from the shadows, that is of course unless someone happens to have some thermal sensors on hand. And even then he's only slightly warmer than the ambient temperature to begin with.]
