The human replies,

The Frother starts poking at Mama's corpse, and looks over his shoulder.

He then shuffles off into the back room.

Well, like I told Haynes, we met up with these two ops in the market place up top while tracking down the thieves that took all of Dirk's stuff. In hindsight, we should have dumped the two of them when the Waster decided that roasting our captured Mama's Boy lead. Burned him to a crisp without even asking a question. Well so after some trouble we got a hold of another one, which we interrogated ourselves. We were able to get some info on this place and tracked her back here. After the load of traps they had guarding the place, we made it down to this lair. I popped a smoke grenade and Mama decided to show herself enough on my IR and I got in a full burst into her chest. Once she went down, the kids scattered and ran. Well anyways, we secured the rest of this place and started gathering up all the stolen gear the kids had accumulated. The Waster for some reason decided to claim the bounty for himself though and was taking Mama's head off for ID. Naturally, since he really had nothing to do with taking Mama down, I objected. A few words got exchanged and out of nowhere the guy lights on fire again and attacks me. Well, I didn't do all this work to not get paid because I was dead. I think it's safe to say he got the bum end of the deal. I am mad now though because he apparently did collect on the bounty and I'm not sure if we can get our hands on those credits. I need every bit now, I mean you can see my armor is pretty ruined, and it ain't going to be cheap to fix up.

Danny wrote:Okay. Well if nobody else has anything to add to that I'll get onto the footage back in the office. I'll get it cleared as soon as I can so your media Op can air it, hopefully tonight, but the investigation'll probably be open for months. These things don't move quickly. I reckon you'll be okay though. Alice!
The Frother reappears. He's produced a burger from somewhere.
Alice wrote:We done? There's kids back there make this guy *he gestures to Mephit* look like he passed away in his sleep. Few serial killers in the making here. Come on the Dan, let's go to the pub.
Danny wrote:Office, Alice. It's called the office.
Unless you've anything else for them they picke their way back out again. The Shivers are still bagging stuff up under the supervision of a sergeant.

Poor spindle, although that conversation at the bar was awfully long.
If that's everything, then I guess I'll help people carry stuff back for reprocessing, and then go and get my armour patched up.
It's 1c/ID, right?

If by 1c/ID you mean 5c/ID, then yes.

The Shivers cart everything off eventually, although you don't have to stick around for it. I can't be arsed roleplaying any more trader Vs Dirk encounters, but you get all your stuff back from the traders if you go looking for it. Mama's Gash Fist was yours, if I didn't already mention that. Also, Tezz, if you like you can just get up and run out of the bar. The gangers will just look on in bewilderment. It's the perfect end to the BPN for you I think.

Later in the day Haynes calls up Deject and explains that he can't do anything about the bounty.
Haynes wrote:Sorry Deject, I hope you gave those guys a sound kicking. They fucked you right over. I'd be careful of this Langley character too. Good news is you're due a bonus from the equipment you recovered. I don't know how much yet, but I'll get onto the Shivers and let you know.
By that evening Dirk gets a phone call from Danny Southwell.
Danny wrote:We checked over your footage and we think you're okay to use it. I've put the report in this afternoon and we've not been given further action so that means you're in the clear from the threat of violence at least. Worst'll be a fine and SCL decrease. Oh, and if Alice tells you to call Haynes names again you'd be best to ignore him. He's not a full SCL level below me for no reason.
And finally Breton calls Dirk a few hours later.
Breton wrote:I've gone through your footage with the editor of Slaughterhouse Six and reckon I can get a twenty second piece, with about eight of those being your footage. I've got to edit it tomorrow, but I reckon for a high profile kill you might be looking at about 30c/second for your footage with maybe a lump bonus for the interviews if they use them. I'll call you tomorrow night.

I definitely meant 1c/ID. Thanks, that should be pretty cheap. :ignore:

Footage;
8 Seconds x 30c = 240c.
240c / 4 surviving ops = 60c each.

Blue BPN;
50c each.

Hunter Sheet;
BUGGER ALL.

Total before interview bonuses;
110c each.

Don't forget the bonus for the recovered equipment. And the .1 SCL increase.

I haven't been tracking my AD though. Let's see:

Girl taking a spanging my armor with her knife
1 10mm bullet from ambush
Bitten by psycho/retarded Waster

Is that it? I only know the AD from the 10mm, so you'll have to tell me how much it costs.

Sorry guys, I really was in two minds if to do that or not, but then Mephit was as much a git as Toast was ;)

You took 1 AD from the MAC Knife and 2 from the teeth.

You also get 185c bonus from the gear you recovered, and 70c for the interviews Dirk and Deject gave. The footage airs the next night on Slaughterhouse Six, and while it doesn't show the Op-on-Op combat, it does show a good report on you ridding a poor Downtown sector of a violent criminal gang.

As well as the money and SCL increase Dirk, Deject and Grim gain 4 XP, while Tezz gains 2 for a partial BPN. It doesn't really matter how much Toast and Mephit got.

Debrief later once you've all digested the results.

Is that 185c for all of us together or per op?

All together, so 255c on top of what was posted up there by Grimmie to split between you.

EDIT: Assuming you and Dirk are chucking your 70c (between you) into the pot too.

Do you guys mind if I take the extra bits left over? I did kill Mama Krutch on my own.

Also, I'm spending my XP on increasing Hide from 3 to 4.

Paid for standing in a bar being generally useless and nearly getting your head beaten in with an utterly inept attempt at negotiation? You are funny Grimmie!

To be fair, Tezz doesn't have much experience with these things. I think this is only the second half-run he's done.

I want to know how Dirk's wooing of Ms. Breton went.

I've increased my Persuasion to 5 and Forensics to 6 - will whip updated sheet over to you later, Doggers.

I will do the same once I know for sure what the final credit distribution is.

How about Spindle gets 113c and we split the 60c among the rest of us, so the three of us would have 233c each and I claim the extra 3c?
