    Dipsnig steps into the Main Room and spots two people at the bulletin board. I'm glad you two are here. There are some jobs that need doing, as you can see.

    "Sure are," Kuko agrees with Dipsnig, prior conundrum all but forgotten. The boss is glad to see him! Yay! "Is there a specific one you want done, boss?" Kuko is up for anythhing at the boss' order.

    Ashley takes another glance at the jobs before turning to Dipsnig. "Is it safe to guess that I'll be looking for these minerals?" She wasn't entirely sure she could destroy a factory right now.

    Dipsnig nods.
    Pretty much, yeah. Can you two handle this job? I'm not sure how challenging it might be, but I have a list of the places this stuff can be found at.

    "Yes sir!" Kuko answers with aplomb. The problem he had earlier has been solved. "You can count on me! Er, Us!" he corrects himself. "Hi! I'm Kuko," he finally introduces himself. "I'm new. Pleasure to meet you." And that ol' minish attention span showing its colors again.

    "No problem, Dipsnig. We'll get it done," Ashley says to Dipsnig, before turning to Kuko. "It's nice to meet you too. I'm Ashley." she says while looking down at him.

    Like I said, I wrote down where this stuff might be found. Dipsnig waves a piece of paper in his hand. Not sure how we're supposed to reach a goddess' realm...

    "That would depend on the goddess, wouldn't it?" he asks. "I know that if it was my goddesses, we would have to use the Golden Power they left behind when they created the world." That was oddly wise coming from "What do we know about the goddess, boss?"

    Ashley listens to Kuko talking about the Golden Power, and it intrigues her a bit. She might ask later. But for now, she adds, "Yeah, knowing more about this realm would help. If we've got nothing, I can try and do some research."

    Says here the goddess' name is Savorla and that her realm is not easy to enter. However, once you get inside, she's apparently not too stingy about the void-warped citrine, Dipsnig explains.

    There are a few well-equipped libraries in Inside. If that fails, we can always contact our employers. Still, we have a name, which makes looking for data easier. Too bad none of them are familiar with the Internet.

Slii is also paying attention to the three at the board, but not enough to be listening in on them. He's simply interested to see if Kuko will be going on his first job soon.

    Kirk has arrived back here after going to GLoG, presumably with Dena. They collected a few names for the job, so he'll call that a success, despite other issues. That's not important though. "I suppose we should go talk to Dipsnig."

    "I suppose, maybe we should avoid mentioning you almost ended up in a fight like three times in a row too huh?" Dena asks, wondering how Kirk were planning to get back that airship anyway.

    "It was only twice, and yes, we should definitely avoid mentioning that." Kirk says, completely casually. He gives her a sidelong glance.

    "Just as we won't mention your time as a bunny girl right?" The other drow asks, looking ready to start laughing again just at the mention of that. "How much were you paying me to keep quiet about it again?"

    "I figure I have three options. One, I could show you just how much I'd appreciate you keeping quiet in my room. Two, I could buy you something nice; Price is no object. Or three, all of the above." Kirk says with another look. He most certainly wasn't looking at her eyes that time.

    "Prostituting yourself are you Kirk? Why am I not surprised?" Dena chuckles and then throws a side-long glance at the other drow. "Of course, I'm not sure it counts as prostitution if you're looking that way at the client... is there something wrong with my new clothes?" She asks, suddenly suspicious.

    "I find parkas incredibly sexy." Kirk says without hesitation. The honesty and sincerity in his voice is unquestionable, if only his statement had been. Kirk is far too good of a liar for his own good.

    That's disappointing. She'd threaten that? Well, he hasn't given her reason not to spread that around just yet, though. "What if I told you you're only wearing a bikini?" He looks her over again now that the cat's out of the bag.

    Slii shakes his head, a contemplative look on his weathered features, "Half-thing lied to clan NO about the contract, provided false information, and took off with rightful profits. Master Dipsnig has declared his life forfeit, and any NO member who thinks themself capabe should lend aid to this task. However... If kin-mate wishes to take the job, Slii has other, more pressing matters to attend to. Can lend support from here, if you wish it." Slii sees opportunity in this meeting. Perhaps her taking this job from him means he won't have to go outside again, fraying his nerves further.

    Ashley's only beginning to learn about phones, let's not drop the Internet on her.

    "Yeah, it shouldn't be too hard to find an old book or something like that. There's a lot of them in libraries, believe it or not." Ashley chuckles a little at her terrible joke.

    Kuko was absolutely enchanted by the TOASTER. We'd lose him forever if he had access to the internet.

    "Slii feels sorrow in telling you that there are few such members, and most of them have vanished for unforeseen reasons. Slii wishes you luck on your task, but knows you shall find little." Raennall has Slii's pity, if not his trust. That warehouse was one of the more difficult missions they'd been entrusted with so far.

    "The traitor can wait, however. For now, Slii will keep eyes on his movements, and wait until he is most vulnerable. If kin-mate is finished with her mission by then, Slii would gladly take the aid." Not to mention, if she finishes her first mission she'll be a full member, and have gained some measure of worth in the rat catcher's eyes.
