Clan Representative
Questions for Beverly
[The Happy Rebel. Proprietor Beverly 'Lightswift' Puller stops by to find a small group at the bar]
Lightswift: um....look at me. Not dressed for visitors really
Dagget: hello
Nutmeg: giggles
Lightswift: blinks
Lightswift: Oh, Hello
Lightswift: Didn't see you there...gave me a bit of a shock
Nutmeg: I can barely see you. You only seem to partially be here.
Dagget: Nulion had an interesting conversation with you recently
Lightswift: yes....give me a moment...let me slip into something less....um.....connected to the grid
Nutmeg: nods and goes to get a cup of coffee
Lightswift: That's better
Nutmeg: nods
Dagget: yes, and Nulion is on the way, too
Lightswift: Sorry...give me a second here...still kind of coming back to reality. heh
Dagget: Rawenna was wanting to talk to you but she has gone to bed already
Lightswift: Yes, I am sorry i missed her.
Lightswift: I ended up getting caught up in a few things
Lightswift: smiles
Nulion: Hello *smile*
Lightswift: Hello again Nulion
Lightswift: Seems I see you everywhere I go these days
Nulion: Eh, Dagget and Nutmeg asked me to swing by.
Dagget: where did you two bump into each other last time?
Nulion: looks at Dagget
Lightswift: The Truth Tower. I guess I spooked him out a bit yesterday with my paranoid thoughts, he was there, I stopped in to see him.
Nulion: chuckles
Dagget: we were a little curious as to why you wer so interested in the location and disposition of Simon's men; and the security system of the CoT building
Nulion: Scared me to death, yes.
Lightswift: oh?
Lightswift: I don't know. Just questions you know. Trying to get to know my environment more...and paranoia....I am always paranoid of security these days.
Lightswift: Just played some hypothetical things in my head, and so I asked Nulion some questions. no big deal really
Lightswift: smiles
Nutmeg: smiles a little
Dagget: well, it got our attention...that was the main reason Rawenna wanted to talk to you, I think
Nulion: smiles a bit
Lightswift: I see.
Lightswift: hmm....have I got everyones undies tied in a knot? heh
[just then some Omni wanders into the bar]
Nulion: What the...an Omni? How did you get in here?
Seductress: hello
Lightswift: hrm....now that is something that could upset Silverstone
Dagget: especially if he happens to drop by again
Lightswift: heh, might take his attention off of me for a moment
Nulion: chuckles
Nutmeg: Hello, Seductress. Lost?
Seductress: what's up?
Seductress: naa, just checking out this nice little club
Dagget: coughs
Nutmeg: grins
Lightswift: I'm sorry...but I have been asked to enforce that no Omni's are in Tir when I see them
Lightswift: Not that I have a issue, but my boss does
Nulion: takes a seat
Lightswift: honestly, probably best if you go.....
Dagget: Omni-Ent has nice big bars
Lightswift: I would hate for Silverstone to come in and attack you for no good reason that you are a Omni
Dagget: Bah! She's going to ignore Bev
Lightswift: well she aint gonna listen
Lightswift: Can't say i didn't try
Nulion: sighs a bit
Nulion: Well, I personally would love to see what happens if Silverstone were to walk in here again.
Dagget: Simon will undoubtedly find out and want an explanation, heh
Nutmeg: Just to be sure, Seductress. Is your insurance all current?
Dagget: did she finally bolt?
Nulion: "Not sure", and she's in Tir? She just asking for perma-death?
Seductress: so what are you guys talking about?
Nutmeg: The weather
Nulion: ....Oh, this and that.
Dagget: nothing that concerns you, Omni
Nulion: We are warning you again, Omni - this place is being monitored by a man you don't want to be seeing.
Dagget: Bev, just lower the gas please
[Beverly points her weapon at the Omni, who then abruptly bolts the bar]
Lightswift: grins
Nulion: smiles
Lightswift: Didn't even lower the gas...just send a hacked message into her NCU
Lightswift: works everytime
Nutmeg: That would do it.
Nulion: A hacked message? *chuckles*
Nutmeg: giggles
Lightswift: yeah something like "attacked by..."
Dagget: I expect to see stray Omni in The Cup but not here
Lightswift: It is suprising yes
Nutmeg: laughs remembering Meldrek's face the last time he walked in.
Lightswift: So...everyone is just...looking at me....
Dagget: anyway, how is business?
Lightswift: Slow, unless you guys are here. heh
Nulion: chuckles
Nulion: Well, as long as it's -some- business. Even just us.
Dagget: or the stray Omni comes in...
Dagget: don't Simon's men spend their off hours here?
Lightswift: Off hours? Don't think they get many
Lightswift: or if they do, they havn't been spending them here. I pretty much have the run of the place unless Simon comes in
Lightswift: Good like base of operations for me actually. heh
Nutmeg: grins
Nulion: smiles
Dagget: operations for what?
Lightswift: I just handle the cup stuff through comlink, and run my errands from here
Nutmeg: But we really are still awfully curious about all those questions, Bev.
Lightswift: Everyone is on edge these days. Just curiosity really. Don't think to much about it. Let me get you guys a couple drinks
Nulion: ...Sounds good to me.
Nulion: ...You did get that bartender checked out, didn't you?
Lightswift: Oh yeah he's good
Nutmeg: Just my coffee, thanks, Bev.
Nulion: Ohh...okay then...*smiles a little, taking a drink*
Nulion: Thanks..
Lightswift: alrighty
Lightswift: Drink up! Let some of those worries go! It's called the "Happy" rebel after all\
Lightswift: chuckles a little
Nulion: smiles
Nulion: Sometimes it's more the Nervous Rebel *laughs a little*
Lightswift: grins
Dagget: well, be aware that you are going to continue to be scrutinized by a lot of people
Lightswift: seems like
Dagget: stuff like that Q&A session with Nulion don't help your position
Lightswift: Curious. Can't even ask a few questions without people thinking the worst of you huh?
Lightswift: if I didn't know better I'd say you guys are starting to think Silverstone is on to something with me
Lightswift: smirks slightly
Dagget: you could ask a lot of questions and us not be concerned, but you pick the wrong ones
Nulion: ...Sign of the times, I guess. *looks at Dagget and Nutmeg
Nutmeg: nods a tiny bit
Lightswift: What would the right questions be? Hi, how are you, see any good holofilms, go on any good dates,,blah blah blah. Boring stuff wouldn't you say?
Lightswift: winks
Dagget: and Markonen had some sound advice regarding Reform - specifically that no clanner ever scheduled to go there avoided it
Nutmeg: We've tried and tried to think of a way that we can prove that Simon is wrong about you. Do you have any suggestions?
Nulion: chuckles
Lightswift: ponders
Lightswift: No Nutmeg. Honestly I don't
Nutmeg: We couldn't either.
Nutmeg: But we really trust Rawenna, and she swears about your loyalty.
Lightswift: and as for reform, I believe that your friend Markonen is right....of course, if I had actually gone to reform....
Lightswift: shakes her head
Nulion: That's what I said in the Tower last night, Nutmeg.
Nutmeg: nods to Nulion
Lightswift: Would it make you feel better if I went out and killed some omni's?
Nicolina: Hi everyone excuse my intrusion pls
Lightswift: chuckles
Nutmeg: smiles
Nutmeg: It's no interruption, Nicolina.
Lightswift: oh hello Nicolina.....didn't see you come in. Hello
Dagget: I think I would have felt more comfortable had you said you -did- go to reform but fooled them into thinking they had adjusted your attitude
Nulion: smiles
Dagget: hello
Lightswift: Not really any point in Lying to you Dagget
Lightswift: But if it makes you feel better, I can start
Nutmeg: You never really explained "How" you avoided it, though. A mistake in paperwork seems a little bit convienent.
Lightswift: They were looking for someone named Pullman
Nutmeg: nods
Nutmeg: Did they get him?
Lightswift: shrugs
Lightswift: Don't know
Nutmeg: How can we verify this?
Nulion: For some reason, Pullman sounds familiar....I even remember something about a Pullman in IRRK news a long time back.
Nutmeg: shakes her head.
Dagget: yes, Agent the omnis were after
Lightswift: But I wasn't him...or her....so they held me for a while and moved me to reform, and someone pointed out that I was registered as Puller, not Pullman and they let me go
Dagget: thinks
Lightswift: I don't really see where I have left a hole
Nutmeg: That is the part that confuses me. I didn't think they ever let anyone go. It's not like they have a judge watching.
Lightswift: shrugs
Lightswift: Don't know what to tell ya
Dagget: well, James may yet dig up some related records and we might find out more from independant sources
Lightswift: You trust me, you don't trust me...whatever. I'm a big girl, I can handle whatever you guys want to throw at me. I'm not going to bull ya though. take me at my word or don't.
Lightswift: shrugs again
Nutmeg: smiles
Nutmeg: We really want to trust you, Bev.
Nutmeg: smiles
Nutmeg: If anything just to prove Simon is wrong.
Lightswift: yeah. I've heard that speech before
Nulion: ...Well, that doesn't make it less true.
Lightswift: Nicolina you want a drink?
Dagget: she has one, it appears
Lightswift: ah, my mistake. Sneaky one that one
Lightswift: grins
Nutmeg: smiles
Nicolina: oh yes i still have over half left in this
Dagget: so what sort of other business do you tend to from here Beverly?
Nicolina: smiles
Nicolina: Thank you though
Nutmeg: Hey, what do you guys think about the Newland City Militia tring to arrest Markonen?
Dagget: pft!
Lightswift: What kind of business are you looking for Dagget?
Lightswift: grins
Dagget: lame, and they got nowhere with it
Dagget: you mentioned that you operated from this bar...I was curious as to what sort of business you managed
Nulion: chuckles, and looks at Nutmeg
Lightswift: I manage all sorts of business.
Lightswift: Parties, overnight guests, common gatherings....
Dagget: *sighs*
Lightswift: and of course there is the other stuff.. you know selling secrets to the corporation, planting bombs, working on destroying the clans as we know them....
Nulion: chuckles
Lightswift: Come on Dagget. I know what you are getting at
Dagget: I can see you are not going to give anythign other than bland generalities
Lightswift: Your playing investigator
Lightswift: You don't trust me as far as you could grid me
Dagget: correct
Lightswift: grins
Lightswift: Excellent. I find that attractive actually
Lightswift: holds back a laugh
Dagget: though I don't yet share Simon's viewpoint of guilty until proven innocent
Nulion: I suppose we are kind of torn on opinion
Nutmeg: You are right, though. With all the tension in the air, everyone sees spooks in every corner
Lightswift: ]
Lightswift: mmhmm
Nulion: ...Heh, I've been the same way lately.
Nulion: chuckles a little
Nutmeg: stifles a giggle
Dagget: well, Nulion, you are a basket case lately anyway
Nicolina: nods
Lightswift: Tell you what Dagget. you want to know what I am up to?
Nulion: smirks a little at Dagget
Nulion: Not like I can help it..
Dagget: sure
Lightswift: Ok, Meet me here on ******, around the same time. I'll take you on one of my routes and you can really see what evil things I am up to
Dagget: ok
Dagget: * days from now
Lightswift: nods
Lightswift: They rest of you are welcome as well....
Nutmeg: takes a note
Lightswift: and whoever else you want to bring
Nutmeg: I'll be here
Nicolina: smiles
Lightswift: But not too many
Lightswift: Keeping a low profile will be important
Dagget: hopefully rawenna can be here
Lightswift: oh.....and maybe renew your insurrance
Lightswift: winks
Dagget: her opinion is the one that really counts
Nutmeg: Always
Nicolina: nods again
Lightswift: Alright. Until then....
Nicolina: My lips are sealed
Lightswift: Farewell my many investigators.....
Nutmeg: giggles
Nicolina: Stay safe
Nutmeg: See you Thursday!
Nulion: Take care, Bev. *smiles*
Lightswift: curses....
Lightswift: hit the wrong grid out
Lightswift: sighs
Lightswift: This will take a while
Nutmeg: giggles
Nulion: It happens *smile*
Nutmeg: Don't you just hate it when the perfect exit get's foiled.
Lightswift: So much for dramatic exits
Lightswift: chuckles
Nutmeg: Reminds me of my last argument with my ex.
Dagget: hopefully not some nanobot failure
Lightswift: eyes roll back as she becomes one with the grid and dissapears
