Re: Rumblings in the Shadow

Black Swan heads to home briefly, offering to let Emi accompany her if she wants. "Boris, I'll meet up with you later, I'm going to see about getting us a way into the building and to move around for a while unseen. See what you can find out." There, Black Swan takes the time to disguise h...

What Max said. Keep your schedule. We'll adapt or not.

Re: Rumblings in the Shadow

With the knowledge of where a sale was going down, and with her own client list, she begins datamining her clients for any of them with the reach to pull off being in the know and interested in this auction. She has the vague beginnings of a plan, but she needs an angle. Short of that they will inst...

Kas wrinkles her nose at the smoke and gets up, finishing her drink. "Kit, we're going to borrow one of your tables for a few while we run down some leads and such. Then we'll be out of your hair." She indicates one with a good ventilation fan that is popular for gambling for that reason. ...

Re: OOC Chat

Oh I kinda like the idea of the Bratva for the loans (but that may be my Arrow fandom showing) - that would give Bright, Black Swan, and Emi a definite link - could have met making payments, and then run into each other later at the Downside and built up a working relationship.
