Summary
runners met at the funny cold bar with a dying I-Con-struct, get the job after realizing the AI largely got the details from a trauma-induced delusion it deemed to be visions of the future. they do the run prep, then intercept the hellhound with 24 guns while running away from the cops and shoot it several dozen times in under a second with sniper rifles and grenades. they get the data from it, shoot a homeless poser, and then go to the final arc of the run, massacaring the local ganger group who held some woman hostage and turned her to the hospital, getting paid by a war buddy of the I-Con-Struct, saying it data spiked after messing around with legendary smuggling group Kosharl.
Background
I-Con-Struct “Spectre Fire” gets data spiked by the Kosharl after trying to be a hero. gets trauma-induced delusions thinks these are visions of ht future. sees a terribl efutre where the "human city and bone unmaker" will become manifest, decides to hire runners to prevent this.
The Meet

They see the AI possess a humaniform drone made by Ares, and realize that the poor thing is almost dead from a recently inflicted wound directly on the Sapient rather than the drone. They don't ask why or how the J was hurt and get to business. they not apprehension of the J's apparent ills.

Pell
Well, this whole run was something. Weird dying AI Johnsons and armored trucks laden with terribly armored drones. Can't say that the latter wasn't already seen by a Haven runner before. Still, the job went without a hitch.
