Summary
Background
During the events of A prior run, the Shredder and Red Ribbon came across the Red Vory known as Deadhead. After experiencing the "shotgun roulette", both Shredder and Ribbon vowed they would shut down Deadhead and end his sick, cruel, games.
The Meet
Shredder reaches out to Ribbon about going back to Stairway to Heaven. After considering that they want to do so during the bar's off hours, they begin reaching out to other runners. Ribbon pulls in Bhop for matrix overwatch, and then Alkali for magical support. In the case of Bhop, the DNI reaches her amid a small resonance realm amid floating islands and gears built into the side of them. In the case of the maid mage, Ribbon and company dox the frag out of him first making the initial contact, despite Alkali's very thin and suspiciously clean matrix presence. The mage, exhausted from his recent adventures and iniation, agrees to the meet.
The meet happens in a park in Snohomish and the various runners make their way there. They discuss the background of Deadhead and Dealer, determining how much Alkali is going to charge them for his magical services.
