Summary
Background
"Why do I get all the fraggin' weird ones.... right. Well. Client is putting their star talent in the upcoming "Winter in the Emerald City" Ballroom competition and is worried about extraction. Problem is, client got no idea where the extraction is coming from. Good news is, client's got deep pockets to go really wide with this one.
Long story short - client wants to flood the competition with runners who can handle being inside a place like this just in case something goes sideways. Low pay if it's nothing but boring guard duty, pay goes up if you gotta blow your cover and shoot someone.
Leave the FBA and longarms at home. Concealability is a must. Fellow trogs gonna have a hard time with this one, the pretty privilege is pretty fraggin' high on this one, but if you got good manners and a good suit, you can probably hang.
No need to meet. Have your fixers contact me, show up individually, dance or whatever I guess? Don't blow the place up unless someone tries to grab our VIP. Hope nothing goes wrong and we get to milk some rent subsidies outta a client with deep pockets and deeper paranoia."

The Run
Session 1: Social Hour
A number of runners make their way into the Fairmont Olympic Hotel, passing through SIN Scanners as well as Cyberware and MAD Scanners. They mingle, chatting between the lobby and the bar, while Tsarina moves to the ballroom and manages to spot two people working set up who seem to have a much more 'aware of their surroundings' vibe than they should have. While other runners generally keep their eyes open, nothing on the surface seems to be amiss.
Session 2: Formal Ballroom Competition
As the dancers take the stage, there are a number of excellent performances, notably by the run's VIP, Ms. Tasha Persephone Juarez. Some of the stand out runners dancing as well are:
