Summary
Trevor, testing the waters with runners who have been problematic to his organization, sends them to repo ware in a dark wetwork run. The result is infighting and a refusal to complete the grittiest collection.
Background
Since LB is unable to complete his rounds, (see A Lil' Legwork Never Killed Anyone,) Trevor Avila decides to hire ShadowHaven runners to cover up LB's disappearance.
The Meet
The team meets Trevor Avila at E-Vue, where it becomes immediately apparent that he has a working relationship with Cecelia Cross. He lets the team know that there are three collections to be done:
- Mr. X has a modular cyberarm that needs reclaimed. Trevor asks the team not to violently repossess this one; it should be easy enough.
- Lou the XIII has eyes, a datajack, and a neurostimulator that needs reclaimed. Trevor warns that this is a ghoul mage that Tamanous themselves had recruited until they started obtaining meat outside the designated zones, and they no longer employed.
- Cassandra Black, a Cutters Lieutenant, known for their bronzed belt of ears. Having been disavowed by the Cutters, this was now a viable collection target, but they'd be surrounded by a crew.
Babylon, furious with not knowing exactly what Cecelia's angle is, nor why the Ancients would send her to work for Tamanous just to have an easy opportunity to off an old rival, Babylon begins subverting the meet--partially to be able to claim self defense when Trevor attacks her, and partially because she is unable to control her emotions.
After bargaining, the team agrees on taking the job for 30k, with Vip3r and Babylon intending to sabotage, and Swerve and Gav Jacinto planning to complete the mission to get paid and eliminate any previous hard feelings with the dangerous shadow org.
The Plan
The Run
Aftermath
- Trevor Avila believes that Babylon and Vip3r will play ball to some extent, but they are still KoS for Tamanous.
- Gav Jacinto is no longer implicated in the fallout from Never Skip Leg Day by Tamanous.
- Swerve is marked off Trevor's personal KoS list...for now.
- Trevor is forced to make the final collection himself, which may have implications down the road.
- Mr. X is safe--or so the team thinks. Don't even worry about the qualities. It's fine.
