Summary
Background
"There's a truly despicable man who both owns something of my Lady's and draws breath. We'd like you to fix both of these. Are you willing to make the world a better place and earn a favor from the Queen of Cats?"
The Meet
A Young Oni, Tatsuo, sitting at picnic tables opposite a gyoza truck meets the team on the edge of Marymoor park. Troika and Twitch all grab some gyoza from the nearby food truck before the team goes to meet with the envoy. Queen Elizabeth XXXII has asked another favor of Skylark. Someone has succeeded to bind the Queen. The group are tasked with killing Carlos Jones, an Aztechnology employee who somehow got themselves booted from the Arcology, who managed to bind the Queen, and possesses her spirit formula, as well as stealing a black book with said spirit formula. They collectively adjourn, heading to Skylark's house to await the Queen spirit's arrival.
The Plan
The Queen arrives, tentative introduction are made, and the Queen opens with an offer- loyalty and/or money for their contribution to their formula. The team does their legwork, getting a lay of the land, the understanding of a strong force guardian spirit at his apartment, and his predilection with a club called Medusa. After some planning, the team secures some Forget-Me-Not, in hopes of getting Troika to get into his presence to knock him out with a neurostun grenade. The team politely stays for dinner at Skylark's place.
The Run
The team arrives and Troika strikes up conversation with the target, moving to one of the corner booths and having a brief, if shallow conversation. The wing-women do notice that there's a magical aura around him, and a fire spirit keeping an eye on things and making him far more suave than he ought to be. A few drugs later, and the pair slink off into his car, him making attempts to make moves on the runner. She feints, flubbing attempts to try and get them to turn the vehicle around. As they arrive a failed surprise and a neurostun grenade ends up knocking out the both of them. As others arrive, a quick stim-patch later, the group begins moving a now-unconscious Carlos towards his (not) penthouse apartment. Twitch takes the time to, with some difficulty, disable all the cameras on the way, tripping the IC in the process, but also taking out the poor spider sent to investigate the disturbance. The team arrives, and Troika takes the moment to knife the unconscious man, slitting his throat and letting him bleed out just outside his front door. Trash Panda takes both the opportunity to clean the scene as he's dragged in, before setting out on liberating the contents of his safe (which includes several spirit formulae). The team makes their way from the apartment to the garage, stumbling across two well-disciplined officers investigating the matrix intrusion. A couple of casts of forboding by Skylark sent the two officers running into the night as the team drives off back to Skylark's house.

I was not supposed to be a part of that part of the run. I said this at the beginning. You said okay. I am not cool with how this went down. I'm glad the spirits are free, but... I'm going for a fly to clear my head.
