Re: Hoi Chummers IC
Saito carefully watches the man's gun and trigger finger, for any sign he's about to give up and execute the hostage. He reaches out with his intellect, coils of thought snaking outwards and wrapping around the gunman's psyche like the tendrils of a deep sea predator.
There's no subtlety in his manipulations, he doesn't try to carefully insert a single idea in between the sparking, flowing river of the man's neurons; he simply seizes control of his thoughts and clamps down hard, squeezing, exerting his will over that of the gunman.
After the spell is cast, he sends to his Watcher Spirit, ::Have any of the other spirits taken an interest?:: He has a hunch that the security spirits will be ordered to respond only to combat spells, rather than potentially innocent Illusions, Healing or Manipulations, but he can't be sure...
SpoilerDelaying until after gunman's action, so I can take three initiative passes against him before he can react again. Unless he looks like he's going to shoot, in which case I'll fire off a Control Thoughts now and hope for the best.
Control Thoughts, Force 5 on the gunman, given orders and further actions to follow once I know if I've succeeded on the first try or not.

Re: Hoi Chummers IC
Nathan
Ignoring his first instinct to just ram the glass shard into the man's spine (killing a man, even one holding a gun, in the middle of a crowded club is more attention than any sensible shadowrunner really wants) Nathan instead focused on the gun in his hand. One good slash down the back should do it without any risk of the man setting it off accidentally, severed tendons have a habit of doing that.
Crossing his fingers mentally, he got as close behind the man as he dared before lashing out.

Saito feels the power of his spell claw into the man's mind. His mind is dull, drunk, and angry. It is unlikely the spirits are his.
A bright lance of pain shoots through his mind as Nathan leaps forward through the crowd and slashes into the man's wrist. The man drops the gun, and screams, clutching at his bleeding extremity. The girl he was holding onto wrenches herself away, lashes out with a kick to the man's face, then runs into the crowd, extremely distraught.
The spirits coming after Neimand and Saito do not dissipate.

Re: Hoi Chummers IC
Saito instructs the man to spin around, facing his assailant, and briefly explain who he is, why he shot the other man in the crowd, and whatever he knows about the spirits attacking the two mages.
The man then abruptly turns, and lunges for the spirit attacking Saito. He aims to grapple with it and prevent it from moving forward to attack Saito, wrapping his arms about its neck and the rest of his body around it's torso, but will settle for simply putting himself in between it and Saito.
The ork turns away from the spirit and the gunman both, and starts pushing through the crowd towards the downed victim. The man only went down a scant few seconds ago, and maybe he can be saved.
As soon as the gunman is entangled with the spirit, he releases his mental control of the man, and attempts to seize control of the spirit, instead.

The spirit easily defends itself from the man, but Mark determidely stands between it and Saito. The spirit starts to move forward, but stops as Saito's spell hits it. The watcher spirits reports the magical security in the place going into an almost frenzied state. More guardian spirits appear, all staring angrily at Saito.
The spirit attacking Neimand lets out a bloodcurdling roar. Roll willpower.

Re: Hoi Chummers IC
Saito looks around, his calm, utterly unruffled exterior slipping a little bit as his eyes go wide at the opposition before him.
As the spirit he's co-opted lunges for Mark Duggan, attempting to wrap him in a subdual hold and drag him towards Saito, he hurriedly orders the spirit to telepathically relay the following message to it's controlling conjurer;
::We should desist our attack. This ork is currently tending magical healing to the solitary injured victim, and it would be especially risky to assault him as he does this. He claims that he and the other mage are private security contractors who were asked to assist concert security in apprehending the lone shooter, Mark Duggan. The situation is now resolved, and he asks that you instruct all spirits and their controllers to stand down, as violent intervention will only serve to further panic the crowd.
He emphasizes that neither he nor his people initiated hostilities, and says that he will not perform any further sorcery or make any hostile moves if we hold off on attacking him, so that this can be straightened out. Furthermore, he asks if he can be of any further assistance. I am ready to relay instructions. ::
The spirit also extends it's Counterspelling to bolster Saito's own counterspelling aura, in addition to whoever else it's currently protecting. Saito also requests that as it lunges for the gunman, it subtly points its mace in the direction of it's conjurer.
Saito kneels next to the man with the gunshot wound, picking him up and laying him accross his lap. He lays a hand upon the source of the blood, closing his eyes and channeling his energies into closing the wound and preventing shock and blood loss, hoping to stabilize the man.

Re: Hoi Chummers IC
The people controlling the spirits must have heard Saito's message, because the spirits stop their attack, then fade back into the astral.
The man who was shot is grievously wounded, but Saito's quick intervention and the force of the spell have saved his life. It is likely that the club has a contract with DocWagon, and that the man will be able to recuperate in decent medical facilities.
The spirit Saito was controlling is dismissed. Luckily, Mark Duggan is in no shape to even try and make a run for it now that the spirit is no longer holding him. Even over the noise of the crowd, the group can hear the bellows of Knight Errant officers forcing their way through to get to the man.
Hiro notices the gun weighs far too little for what it is. He surmises that it likely contains plasteel or ceramic components, explaining how Duggan got it through security. How such an ordinary man got his hands on such a gun is not so apparent. While such a weapon would be valuable for nefarious purposes, it was just used in a crime with possibly thousands of witnesses.
9 succesfully infiltrates Duggan's commlink. The banality of the man is overwhelming, the sheer level of "average and boring" of the man's life almost infectious. There are children who lead more interesting lives! The only thing of any note are a few screeds and rants about how his wife cheated on him (with his best friend), how he bought the tickets (and a spot on the guest list) for far more than face value, and generally incoherent plans of revenge.
The various service staff quickly rounds up the runners (one having to chase down Neimand outside the club), and escorts them to what must be the only empty booth in the club. Despite the violence, people are still eager to see the show, and the club is ready to give it to them. Besides, this bit of action is just the perfect story for me-feeds.
A man gets up on the stage. Middle-aged, nice but not flashy suit, and a well-trimmed goatee mark him as management, but trying to fit in with the sort of crowd the club attracts. "All right, you collection of mutants, chipheads, burnouts, and worse, settle down! I know why you're here, and why you've been sweating over our nice clean floors all night! Ladie, gentleman, and anything and everything in between and outside, I present to you the one, the only, MARIA MERCURIAL!"
The crowd goes wild as the lights dim, and then everything goes quiet as the first haunting synthesized notes of Mercurial’s hit song “Take It To Mister” swell up from the speakers. A spotlight comes on, illuminating a slender, lovely figure wearing a short dress of midnight blue. Her legs and arms gleam with polished chrome from her trademark cyberarms and legs. Her voice is lovely as ever, and the first lines of the song wash over you.
The group is seated in a deep semi-circle booth on the second level. An AR projector is available for 9.

Re: Hoi Chummers IC
The orc mage sits down at the table, tsking over the bloodstains now present on the pants of his immaculate, fashionably neo-Japanese business suit. Ah, well. It is upsetting, but such things are the cost of doing business. He sends a polite, perfunctory message to the comm profile of the man who was shot, stating that he was sorry he could not provide him further medical aid (or prevent him from being shot), and wishing him a speedy recovery. In truth, he doesn't care too much whether the man lives or dies, but the gratitude of strangers is often a useful thing to cultivate. You never know who might be useful.
He nods respectfully to Nathan, Hiro and Niemand. "It seems we may soon be working together. You reacted quickly, gentlemen. It is a good thing, to be in business with men of action." His English is careful and precise, slightly accented. He has sharp, asian features, and his tusks are quite small; if it wasn't for the very vivid shade of green that is his skintone, he could pass for a muscular human.
He looks over his shoulder with mild disdain as the American singer crests the stage. He watches with interest, regardless; their employer clearly meant the free admission as a gesture of respect, and he might enjoy it anyway.

Re: Hoi Chummers IC
The hand on his shoulder pulls Neimand's mind from the ragged panic that stole his thoughts. Wiping the sweat from his face, he allows himself to be led back to the booth.
He is only vaguely aware of Saito's comment as the buzzing in his ears threatens to drown out the frenzied crowd below. Man of action... that's me... he says uncomfortably. His rash act had triggered events he should have forseen and been prepared for. He grabs a waitress by the arm "Bourbon... neat." he says and lets her go.

Pit-Stop just sat listening to the music waiting for whatever this was all about. She didn't particularly know the act but she had heard worse...
So the I am's had already set themselves out as the men of action... She didn't really care much, she much preferred just being a driver.
Besides it looked like one of our men of action was feeling the repercussions of going toe to toe with some security spirits.

Leaving the man's commlink, 9 retreats to the node he wasn and activates the node he was in before. He activates the projector and the image of a sharply dressed human male appears. "Before you ask, I'm an AI. My name's 9. Use the number if you ever have to write it down."

Re: Hoi Chummers IC
Hiro nods at Saito's comment, and Neimand's response. "That was a fancy bit of wiz yourself, omae." He says to the ork, as he raises his finger and smiles to the waitress indicating that he will have what Saito is having. "Don't have much of a chance to get the real stuff, seems like whoever set this up is pulling out all the stops for us...could be a good job...or it could be trouble."
He eases himself back in the booth as the music starts and the AI appears. He raises an eyebrow, and gives the projection a nod and respectful smile.

Nathan shuffles agreeably back to the booth to join the others, tossing his glass shard into a bin along the way, happy to be rid of the stupid thing. All things considered, that went very well. The others that had been apparently summonsed by their mysterious benefactor put on a solid showing, he made mental notes of what he'd seen each of them accomplish. Can't hurt to keep such things in mind.
"I'll join in the back-patting. Good show all around. Rare occasion something like that ends without anybody dying."

Re: Hoi Chummers IC
Saito requested a glass of hot shochu from the waitress, apparently in a somewhat nostalgic mood this evening. He looks at 9 in confusion for a while. An AI? What is it doing here? He isn't sure of the etiquette in this situation; his first instinct is to ignore it, or chide it for interrupting the real people. A vague memory tugs at him, telling him that some of these programs start acting as if they were real individuals; it is perhaps best to be polite.
"Good evening, 9-san. I am Saito; it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance. I have never worked with an AI before. I am unaware of your working requirements. I hope you will forgive any lapses of decorum on my part."
He nods at Hiro. "I did not come here to provide free security for a crowd of shrieking children and their idol. We can hope our intervention is taken into account when we negotiate compensation for the job."
He glances around at the others, particularly at Pitstop. "So, you have seen what I can do. I am guessing that you two are soldiers, samurai, as you responded with much focused aggression and no hesitation. But why do you think that you were contacted for this?"

Re: Hoi Chummers IC
Pit-Stop sits gazing into the club listening to the group speaking: she takes a brief look at the new AI fella as he pops into artificial reality at the table but her gaze wanders off once again.
She cant help herself smirk a wide grin as one of the men, Saito, makes his discontent known about being asked to assist with the gunman. Turning back to the group to re-familiarize herself with the face of this man she meets his unexpected gaze and nervously smirks even wider.
I wa' thinkin' that m'self to be 'onest, they take us tools from us then ask us to kill armed nutta's...
With a few other faces now looking at her she realizes its probably polite to finally introduce herself.
Pene... Just call me Pit-Stop, i'm a driver.
Deciding to risk it she waves to a waitress...

Hiro pulls his gaze from the stage and nods to Saito again, his chrome fingers tapping in rhythm to the booming bass from the speakers. Maria Mecurial wasn't a favorite, but she wasn't bad either. Hiro tried to remember if he still had one of her discs in a box somewhere, leftover from an ex.
"Samurai, yeah. I assume I'm here cause this McCallister cat knows talent when he sees it," he says with a grin. "Speaking of our mystery employer, does anyone know anything about him? Cause, I sure don't."Last edited by kind_of_a_ROBOT; 2013-02-04 at 02:15 PM.

Turning to Neminad, at the mention of "old school". "He was forged in the wired age. Guy still has a cyberdeck, "old school" is a bit of an understatement."

Re: Hoi Chummers IC
Nathan smiles to himself. The camaraderie already building was refreshing. Reminded him of his days working security. Bunch of misfits united by a common cause: to make more money and live long enough to spend it. "I say as long as the job's real, the money's good, and I don't end up with a bullet in my head, McCallister could be a gorram winged pegasus and I'd accept at this point." He raised his glass slightly to Saito with a slight nod; he moved quick after the gun was out of the man's hand. Man does good work. "Haven't had to work this hard just to hear the pitch in a while."

Re: Hoi Chummers IC
Mercurial plays a two-hour set before wrapping up. Many of the club-goers begin to exit, even though there are a few bands are coming on after her. The crowd has come to see what they wanted to see, and after tonight's excitement, many are eager to get home and rest. For the group though, the night may just be getting started.
As Mercurial leaves the stage, a waitress comes up to the group and escorts them backstage. You can all see MacCallister chatting with Mercurial. As soon as he spots you, he gives her a nod and heads over to the group. He looks the same in meatspace as he did in the Matrix, cyberdeck and reading glasses. He looks a bit more casual now though, wearing faded jeans, a patched leather armor coat, and a Mercurial t-shirt that may have been from her first tour. "Hoi chummers! Good work out there! If you'd follow me, we can get started." He leads you all to a small backroom. As soon as he closes the door, the noise from the outside is cut off.
"So, let me tell it to you straight. This is a missing person biz. Her name's Fiona Craig." A file labelled "Fiona Craig" pops up on everyone's comm, asking for permission to download and open up.
"Shes an archaeologist, got here last night on a flight from Greece. Problem is, she didn't show up to some meetings she really needed to be at today. Her bosses want her found ASAP, so time is of the essence.
