(SK) A Plan of Action

[Chris Wooding]

Continued from here. We need a short scene to plan things, I suppose.

Now all the others had left, either to bring the coffin away, or to start unraveling other mysteries, there's a small team of Kindred left in the private room at The Reverence. Chris, Daniella Sage and Callum McCann . Brawn and brains.

Chris asks questions to both the Bailiff and the Deputy. 'Do you agree we focus on the woman you saw, Deputy McCann? It happened far more recent than the killings of Sarah LaFleur and Thomas O'Conner. Besides... we might have a trail to follow? From what I understand, you left the museum quite soon, as is understandable with a coffin.'

'But before we make actual plans, do we wish to involve anyone else? A small group can more easily stay hidden and do research at places we're not allowed to be. Then later if we have an idea of what the actual threat is, we could always call for assistance.'

[Daniella Sage]

Daniella listens as Chris and Cal talk, nodding her head in agreement, “A small group would be best in my opinion. And I agree with you Priscus Wooding, we can always call for help if we need it.” She then looks to Cal, “That sounds like a great idea, she might have some insight as well.” She looks back to Chris, “Where did we want to start our investigation? I was thinking back at the museum, it is where the woman was first encountered, and where everything seemed to begin."

[Chris Wooding]

'Sounds like a good start. Although she probably didn't buy her bike in Sacramento, it would at least give us something to look out for.'

Chris then listens to Daniella. The museum seems to be the only place they could start, for real. 'Maybe we can quickly visit several bike shops before they close,' he looks at the time on his phone, 'we should be able to see at least one before it is too late.'*

'Now we should think of anything we could need. We go to the museum tomorrow, I want to be as well prepared as possible.' He also looks at his hand, the Hierophant prefers to feed before going somewhere else.

Since the other scene started early, and this one directly followed, I think we still have one or two hours before midnight?

Possibly, but there's nothing to say when the other thread began. Regardless, most businesses close around 5-6, so it's unlikely you're going to find a shop that's open.

Then let's continue with the other plans

[Daniella Sage]

Looking to Cal, “That would be great if she would agree to a tour. If you need help making any of the calls let me know.” She felt at a loss as to what she was supposed to do at the time, and wanted to help somewhere. “We should probably have some story in place for why we are requesting an after-hours tour.” She said, figuring it would help to have a story all set. “What time did we want to meet up to head to the museum? Are we meeting there or here?”

[Chris Wooding]

Chris nods to Callum and Daniella, as they seem to take care of the bike part.

'We could want to visit the museum for the examination of several pieces, with my academic background I'll try to make it look semi-official, as working on an important project for the Sac State.*' He thinks about an appropriate time, the days were getting brighter already...

'Then 09:30 pm, at the museum?'

Can a small cover story be made possible by using Academic Allies 2 like this?

[West]

Sure, great idea
