Yeah, but as long as someone's in the safehouse I was figuring it was worth having someone watching it. However, as GM if you want to tell me otherwise...

Xa heads to Tacoma on his Cyclops Monocycle, stopping at a rather sleazy motel called Harringtons.

To get two-way broadcast from drone we are going to have to move a little closer.
I don't think I am much use around here, anyway. Too many people keeping eye out for me.
I'll move within two-way-communication distance for my dragonfly - keeping out of sight as best as I can.

You dont spot anyone following you. You think you see a couple of orcs and trolls watching you leave the Verge, but they just seem to be making sure you are actually leaving.

I assume that you are moving into range so you can spy on the hotel room with the dragonfly? As its a fairly safe bet:

Xa is doing the horizontal tango with some woman. Hubba Hubba. After a bit of rumpy pumpy, they lie back and share a smoke. You can either do a perception roll with your drone to hear what they are saying, or sneak the drone in closer (same roll as earlier in the bar).

You guys get to watch live sex shows and hang out in bars, and I'm being a tramp for a week. I can't help feel I'm getting the bum rap.

Nikolai winces, and reluctantly jumps in to his drone to listen closer.. Ew.

You come in kinda halfway through the conversation, but you get a crystal clear reception:
Xa wrote:...who, but its tonight. We are shifting it well, thanks to that Alec kid, so its probably gonna be a biggy.
Woman wrote:Hmm. Record what you can, but dont get too close, you hear?
Xa wrote:Whats the matter, Carla? You getting worried for me?
"Carla" punches him in the arm.
Woman wrote:Fuck you! Im talking shop here, we cant afford the paperwork. Now get back to work already!
Xa gets out of bed, totally naked, and salutes. Twice, if you get my meaning.
Xa wrote:Yes Sir, Ms Matthews, Sir!
He pulls on his clothes, and Carla does gets the far-away look of someone using AR for a moment. He leaves, and gets back on his cycle.
