[OOC] 2086 - A Cyberpunk RP

[Dark Cloud]

@VeyrinDay Oh I thought she was getting involved with my character somehow whoops.

[Sniblet]

Murder is interesting! There's surely no way Mira learns anything useful, I'm kind of just putting her there because it's the big plot hotspot. If she hits enough of those she might find another player. Or get killed by one. Or hit 100,000 subscribers.
Wherever things go.

[Sniblet]

Speaking of finding other players, @Hyyde322, you live close enough to have heard the Plot Murder (I assume) so Mira's in your area right now. I'm open to anything you want to contrive.
Maybe you're a viewer :), maybe she makes too much noise on your rooftop after she leaves the scene, maybe you see a weirdo walking around inside the yellow tape?

[Dark Cloud]

@Sniblet Just be careful the murderer...MIGHT BE A SUBSCRIBER D: *AUDIBLE GASPS*

[Dark Cloud]

@Kiragan_Natsuki So how do I tie into your post?

[Kiragan_Natsuki]

@Dark Cloud Because it was 5 AM when I started typing it and I was half asleep and hung over. I shall edit.

[Dark Cloud]

@Kiragan_Natsuki Lol

[Hyyde322]

@Sniblet that sounds like a good idea. I have her near the scene and she's heard about the murder. I'm thinking maybe she's gone out to grab something and Mira spots Leigh near the crime scene and comes to question her as a potential witness or something. Or we can just go with your idea of making too much noise on the rooftop after Mira leaves

[Kiragan_Natsuki]

@Meleck Don't know how I didn't see your CS! Really sorry about that! Everything looks good so far. Once you have it done, I'll review it.

[Sniblet]

Wait, how do players talk to one another under these rules? I can imagine how we'd work around no one-liners, but two other posts between each message... how do we run interplayer dialogue? Do we?
@Hyyde322 relatedly, I can't do a post yet, it's been a bit since you said anything so you get to initiate.

[Kiragan_Natsuki]

@Sniblet Well seeing how the RP is moving at a slow enough pace, I guess I can redact that rule to make things easier.

[Dark Cloud]

Would someone post a god damn IC I need something to read RAGH D:< jk

@sniblet I'm stuck at work right now but I can post when I get home

@Dark Cloud@Sniblet@Hyyde322@Eviledd1984@VeyrinDay

Just a reminder, the two post rule has been eliminated. You are now free to post whenever. This has been your useless update from your incredibly useless GM. I'm gonna go drown my sorrows in a bottle of whiskey now...and maybe a bowl of ice cream later.

Since we're going with this idea, lemme give you guys some notes on what exactly would be found

1) Yamagata is not aware of what the data they're after contains. They know that Doctor Cadmus communicated with another corp between being informed that she would be let go and her murder. They assume corporate espionage, but unless the data is turned over they do not have any knowledge of additional androids beyond the Zeta series that Cadmus turned over.

2) Cadmus sent location data on Epsilon Thirteen's hiding place, but it was encrypted and she died before sending the encryption key. At present no one has fully cracked it, but I think we can assume Maggie's crew will manage.
The location was sent as a show of good faith, basically like "look what I can bring to the table" but what technical data she provided is shallow and incomplete, because she didn't want to give them too much until she had a good contract. It does show enough to indicate that the android in question is quite strong, and very expensive. Possibly worth more than what Yamagata is offering for the data, just saying...

3) E13 is hidden in the Venus district. There's a defuct established that once offered pleasure bots(little more than realdolls that can move and speak a little, they were actually quite unconvincing, hence the place being shut down). E13 is hidden in the basement, where there's a series of charging and repair pods for the pleasure bots. One of them has been modified and is still active, but now it is charging the new android instead.

It's not an ideal hiding place, but it was supposed to be temporary, unfortunately Cadmus was killed and the deal fell through. Some techs have been working half-assedly to decrypt the location data, but with Cadmus dead it hasn't been considered a priority, so they simply kept the data locked up.

It has been about 16 months since Cadmus's murder, and by a stroke of luck, nobody else has stumbled on the hiding place(yet). The sex-bot establishment has been closed down for years, and nobody expects there to be anything worth finding left in there, so it isn't explored often.

Any other character is still free to stumble upon this first, but I'm just watching to see how this plays out.

[Kiragan_Natsuki]

Alright, time to inject some life into this rotting corpse!

@sniblet I'm stuck at work right now but I can post when I get home

@Hyyde322

Are you still in this? My condolences if you’re still on overtime

[Eviledd1984]

@Kiragan_Natsuki

So quick question, are you taking about Maggie and her group getting arrested? Or being chased down by Hiro?

[Kiragan_Natsuki]

@Eviledd1984 *facepalm* Maggie and her group are being arrested by Emma while Hiro is busy interrogating Sweetie.

[Eviledd1984]

Okay...
