			Regrettable that my compatriot does not appreciate my tactics. Nevertheless, the team was a joy to work with. Scurvy perhaps could stand to be a little more professional, but it is useful to have a runner by your side who is... bold, to that degree. Ridiculous job, though.

	What to say about this team? [[Good Boy]] is a very good boy. The best boy! Such a good boy! [[Scurvy]] is sensible, with keen perception and navigation, but a bit unlucky. [[Messenger 7]] is an extremely capable combatant but disturbingly violent. To her credit, she went along with saving the Taco Temple fan who ordered the food. But it wasn't her first instinct.

	Luckily, the Laesa syndicate routinely quickly smuggled drugs and telesma across that border, and [[Moth]] was able to get help from her father [[SignificantNPC::King Midas]] to identify a contact at the border crossing who flagged them through in minutes.

	[[Moth]] noticed, with her tracking skills, that an enormous crocodile-like creature had recently passed into the cave. [[Scurvy]] with his parazoology confirmed that it was an afanc, or something like that. This was concerning. There were several possibilities. Was this just a trap? Another prank, like on Bell-Red? Was there a customer inside who had been surprised by the monster?		[[Moth]] noticed, with her tracking skills, that an enormous crocodile-like creature had recently passed into the cave.

Was there a customer inside who had been surprised by the monster? What was in the crates? And why have them delivered to this cave? It might be drugs or something else illegal that was to be guarded by a safehouse with a pet monster.

	The team agreed to go in, not hiding their presence. Perhaps it was an intelligent creature? Or they would find the customer? Their role was to deliver the food, and they were determined to do so, calling out that they were here with the delivery.		The team agreed to go in, not hiding their presence.

	Unfortunately, they received no response until they were at the edge of a large pool of water. They could see an island in the water with a large pedestal or column so high they could not see what was at the top of it, though there was the hint of light. The huge crocodile monster leapt up out of the water and attacked [[Messenger 7]] who was standing closest to the water. [[Messenger 7]] was able to dodge the attack, and drew blood with a first attack with ~~her~~ her nodachi sword. [[Good Boy]] attempted to bite the creature, armed also with an electrical aura. [[Scurvy]] attacked with a full action machine gun fire, while screaming - his phobia of crocodiles very much in play. The creature dove back down into the water.

	[[Moth]] here! This was my 31st run. This was a very unusual job. I'm not entirely sure why the Johnson picked the group of us, other than our immediate proximity to his location. We didn't even have a vehicle among us that could hold the four big crates. I can't tell if this is related to the delivery of all that food to my neighbor [[Ante]]'s house. Was that somehow suggested to a Taco Temple fan by a mysterious card reading? An attack or prank in my neighborhood matters to me. We have known enemies - like NeoNeon - who like pranks. I think my best chance to learn more about these tarot cards is to ask my contact at Aztechnology, [[SignificantNPC::XX]]. Maybe he can help us figure this out. If I can be subtle enough that he doesn't realize I have anything to do with shadowrunners.		[[Moth]] here! This was my 31st run. This was a very unusual job.
