The APC itself.

Ms Kirk has gone off ordering people about, although you could go catch her up. The Shiver Captain who's by the APC will answer some of your questions, but he's not under your command.

I don't know who the prisoners are, but you can bet your ass they won't be let go and DarkNight should know that. So who the hell knows what it is they really want.

Kt'rr looks like he is getting all hot and bothered about how naughty they are being, and shouts the last bit whilst thrusting his warbastard into the air. Just in case theres any news crews filming this:

I usually take point as I am the sneakiest and thus the least likely to be spotted. Let's figure this out right now: are we going as one group or are we splitting up?

Well I count 7 of us for this shindig. We could go into a group of 4 and a group of 3, or two groups of 3 and I can actually go off and do some scouting.

I'm thinking if we have a group of 3 and one of 4, we should have the three sneakiest in the group of three and the rest in the other group. Who else has Sneak/Hide? My guess would be have Dirk, Eraser, Spindle, and Grimmie go together, and me, K'trr, and new guy Brainrot go the other way.

I have Hide of 5 and Sneaking of 2 if that's worth something.

Yeah that's good. I think K'trr has some sneak as well, though I may be wrong.

Tunnels with subhumans are one thing, lit offices with Darknight...

I might stand out!

hahahahahaha!

I mean, no. Not so much. Not at all, in fact.
Besides, even if he had the sneak skill, I imagine he would be on some serious negative modifiers, what with being in what is essentially a giant, bright red robot suit.

Well, I guess I could try going it alone and then the rest of you go, I'm fine with that, or we could have me, Eraser, and Brainrot as a team.

I have sneaking 4, but no hide. So I can be silent but seen. Like a mime!

Grimmie, looking muddled wrote:New guy and Deej', sneak around the back of the lobby and take a look inside to see if you can see anything, careful of traps.
If the coast is clear I guess you could head in and see if you can see or hear any patrol groups - if so we can try and take the maintenance route instead.

Alright, I'm going to head to the rear lobby entrance and get a look. Brainrot, come with me and stay out of sight.

Sneak (4): 1, 7 + 4 = 12
Hide (4): 8, 1 + 4 = 13

The lobby is a grand room in chrome and glass taking up most of the first three floors. On the ground floor there is a square reception desk with an elevator shaft on each corner and a stairwell and ducting system in the centre. There’s very little in the way of cover, having glass exterior walls on all sides facing out onto the surrounding courtyard, although support pillars are spaced along the walls. There is also a pair of Hijoule Makari on tilted stands, one the most recent top of the range model, the other the classic 844SD original.

I will check around the door as best I can for any kind of trap or alarm.

Detect (4): 3, 8 + 4 = 15

There are a couple of electronic thingumajigs connected to the doors. You don't know what they are, although it doesn't look like it opens manually.

Grimmie, ask those guys if they know how these rear lobby doors are supposed to open. It looks like it's supposed to be automated, but it's not opening on its own.
