(Vorpal) The Great Destroyer

"Aight Moretti, I like your stones. What's the name?" The Fed holds out a hand with several almonds in it for Lina to take if she wishes.

Lina pulled out her notebook, writing down Arnoud's name and handing it to him so that he had the spelling right. "Thanks, Agent," Moretti said, waving off the almonds with a grin. She'd been joking about that.

Darkness and makeup and whatnot made it tough to see that she was pale, but if she was going to shake his hand, she'd need to warm it up. She did so, and offered a shake. "That's all, then? It's good that these guns aren't on the streets."

-1V for Blush of Life.

"Yep, that's it. I'll be in touch." The agent finishes up the hand shake and walks toward his vehicle. "Nerds! Mount up we done!"

Good to wrap?

Well. It appeared that Lina had scored a new cargo van. With a clean-up and new plates, it would be an asset they could use in the future. Getting behind the wheel, she headed off, the work done for now. She needed to get a hold of the Prince, and quick, if she wanted to ambush the meet.

Steven - is there enough time for Lina to ask Ale if she wants to have the Mafia hit the weapons sale?

Lina Moretti , you can try...

Lina considered her options. If the buy went off and the Mafia smoked the mooks that went to get the items, that might be a short-term victory -- but any survivors or influence tracking would probably lead the enemy to know precisely who had come. The Italians. Which meant that throwing a fuckload of influence back to make war on the Italians was a thing...

And for what gain?

A few mooks?

No, best to leave Alessandra's trump card in the hole for the critical moment. For now, she had the ability to track and find the security chief. In a clandestine war, you wanted to strike surgically, or not at all.

Time to go home. Tonight was a huge win.

Lina isn't going to bother. Best not to expose influence like that so blatantly. Lina will call it a day. End scene.

Good Scene. So ends the Vorpal Plot. Great work to everyone!
