    When the helo suddenly lurches to the side, Gregory is alarmed for a moment.
    (Under fire ? No, can't be... so what ?)

    But apparently that is some mages idea of a joke and he relaxes again, instead massaging his arm a bit, where the wires form his wired reflexes run along.

    After a moment of static in all his displays, Frank easily regains control of the copter.

    [Physical diagnostic running...........No damage. All systems green.]

    The flight attendant apparently felt the abrupt movement also, as she drops both cup and pot. After making a surprised face, she makes a stern face and starts wagging a finger reproachfully at Frank.

    Frank begins maneuvering around this part of the tarmac, skimming the floor and swerving around a little. The current location map shows a white marker with dark red text incoming from the north:
    BiggerThanABreadbox - VectorThrust - Downtown

    [Incoming message from BiggerThanABreadbox]
    [Oi! Land or get moving, Kitty! New guy, yeah? Get outta the way so the evening shift copters can land. You want to impress your date, do it someplace else.]

    "Nina's day shift. And she wouldn't try to hurt Kitty. She has to ride in her during the day. She was probably in the middle of something as we flew by, that's all. Hermetics do strange things like that." Gatto grins at Brachial, then settles into her seat to wait for the first call.

    Brachial chuckles softly, relaxing in his seat and flashing a grin back at Gatto. "Well, Sidewinder never bothered to change it," he says aloud. "Maverick set it. There's a few rumors as to why... Ex-wife, sim actress... most popular is its his favorite meat puppet though." He chuckles, shaking his head.

    En route to Auburn
    8:52pm

    Frank gets the copter moving on its way to Auburn, still skimming the ground. The buildings close by the airport are all warehouses and similar sorts of buildings. The current map display shows three more white contacts converging on the airport:
    Excalibur - Merlin - Renton
    RockBox- Hollywood - Tacoma
    Kryptonite - Superman - Outremer


    They are all coming from a direction appropriate to the location noted.

    The flight attendant, apparently satisfied that she has told off Frank enough, begins to giggle silently and pulls the little blue hat off her head. She tosses the hat and it disappears. Then she gives Gregory a full lip pout and unbuttons the first button of her suit jacket. She turns around so she is facing Frank and looks over her shoulder, obviously undoing the rest of the buttons, and also obviously enjoying it.

    {Sorry, Leshan, it was partly my bad.}

    Seemingly having satisfied his urge for conversation for the time being, Gregory just stares ahead a bit, then goes to watch the show the flight AI is offering. When the 'fight attendant' winks at him, he replies with a broad grin.

    After a bit, however, he adresses Mig again. "You wanna go out first or do backup ?"

    Frank

    After having righted the chopper Frank looks over his shoulder to see if everyone was all right, and notices the flight attendent. "What the? Who or what is this? Look it wasn't my fault; it was that mage." He returns most of his attention to piloting, but glances everynow and then at the "flight attendant". When she begins performing her "show" and turns so she's facing him he begins grinning, but still concentrates on flying. He does steal the odd glance or two. Or three.

    Gregory grins at that "I was a machienegunner. If anything got into pistol range, i already screwed up."

    He seems to brood a bit, then continues "Listen, first man out is the first one to catch lead. I can take it, i've got experience with that. Just let me take point, 'kay ?"

    He falls silent once more, scratching his right temple. Then, suddenly, he turns to Brachial. "You're the medic, right ? Why's there only one of you ? Does take two to carry a stretcher after all."

    Auburn
    8:56pm

    The flight attendant continues her little stripper act, back still turned to the cabin, getting herself down to just blue pasties with gold tassels and a blue thong. She has a rather impossible physique that absolutely defies gravity. There is a tattoo of the Ares logo in the middle of her back, just above the strap of her thong.

    Frank gets a new contact on his map just as the copter passes over the border into Auburn:
    BoomChikaBoom - Cougar - Auburn

    About a second after the contact appears:

    [Incoming message from BoomChikaBoom]
    [Here Kitty, Kitty.]
    Pause.
    [Oh, crap. Sorry, I forgot Sidewinder retired. Heh. I even went to the party Saturday and got completely wasted with him. Hey, new guy. I’m Cougar, passing the Auburn flag to you guys. Dimitri swears he saw some Ancients scootin’ along over by Tapps, but none of the rest of us did, and nothing else of interest to note. Auburn’s been pretty quiet this evening, and it's all yours.]

    Gatto, being relatively sure footed, unbuckles her harness, stands up and walks over to where she can see the flight attendant better. Now isn't that interesting. We lose our maps and get to actually meet Kitty instead. Looks like Sidewinder had even more issues than I thought. She thinks for a second, trying to find the best angle to approach this from. Do I take away our entertainment out here or try to embarrass the new pilot. Or both? "Pilot boy Frank, not meaning to sound pushy but you might want to, I don't know, consider changing the display back here. Unless you like the idea of sharing Kitty with the world. Or maybe we should all join in?" Gatto starts humming off-key porn music as she saunters back to her seat. Her eyes get slitted again and disco ball rainbows begin to flit across the inside of the helicoptor while soft, 1970's porn music covers her humming.

    ((Oh, to have taken Orgy as a spell... Ah well, too late now. I shall have to make do with Chaotic World - very low force level.))

    Frank

    "She turned on all by herself, have no idea how to turn her off. I'll ask Kitty to turn it off though, as we are now officialy on duty. And actually I think it's more interested in Gregory then me."

    [Kitty, please turn off the sim-person.]

    Turning his attention to the transmission from Cougar Frank responds.

    [Outgoing Message to BoomChikaBoom]
    [No problem; I'm sure you won't be the last person to forget Sidewinder isn't behind the stick. Call me Frank. And thanks for the headsup on the possible Ancients activity. Have a safe landing.]

    Switching to sub-vocal, Frank says to everyone, "[Cougar just transimitted to me that one of his crew thinks he saw Ancients activity near Tapps; but no one else saw anything. Otherwise nothing to report. We're approaching the center of Auburn. We'll hover in the area until we get a call.]"

    [What is a 'sim-person'?]

    [Incoming message from BoomChikaBoom]
    [Sure thing, Frank. Oh, Thomas wants to know if you have any new hotties on board. Since every other woman in the fleet has shot him down already, he's hoping for a chance at fresh blood.]

    The BoomChikaBoom contact starts moving slowly towards SeaTac.

    The flight attendant shimmies and dances a bit to the music.

    The music and rainbows are incredibly distracting, but anyone who puts a little effort into focusing can overcome it.

    The spell imposes a -1 penalty to everything, but you all succeeded at your resistance tests, so if you want to not be affected by it, you may. If you'd rather just sit back and enjoy the show, you can do that, too.

    [Oh, for god's sake. The peep show going on behind me: the "stewardess". Turn it off. Or if you can't tell me how to.]

    Frank on his own though starts hunting through menus in an effort to turn off the striptease.

    "[Having minor difficulty getting Kitty to turn off the display. And Gatto: it's not that distracting but stop whatever it is you're doing. I don't like magic being used on me.]

    [Outgoing Message to BoomChikaBoom]
    [I'll assume he's knows about Gatto, but there is someone who was in the orientation with me. Her name's Ritsuko. An elf and one of my tactical support. She seems to own her own guns; so I'd warn him to watch what he says and does or the only fresh blood he'll be seeing is his own.]

    Brachial chuckles softly, stretching in his seat slightly as he loosens his harness. "Hmm, don't remember Sidewinder ever showing that side of Kitty before," he says aloud. "Maybe she's taken a liking to him already." He stretches out in his seat, crossing his feet out of any aisle and putting his hands behind his head. "Anything on the news feed?" he asks. "May want to monitor Lonestar's channel as well, give us an idea if there's any trouble in the area."

    [I do not understand your command. What do 'peepshow' and 'stewardess' mean?]

    The in-flight stripper winks at Gregory with a grin, then pouts with exceptionally full lips at Frank before disappearing completely. The image is replaced by a map of the copter's current location, which is identical to the one Frank can see. The ground you are current flying over is marked in blue, with a couple of little islands of red not far away. There are dozens of blips all over the place, mostly yellow, with a few black ones sprinkled in. There is also a flashing green dot just at the edge of the map.

    [Incoming message from BoomChikaBoom]
    [Hahaha. Fantastic. Say 'hi' to Gatto and Brachial for us. Cheers.]

    The BoomChikaBoom contact zips away, headed straight for SeaTac.

    Frank sifts quickly through the menus, but the only thing he thinks that might be related to the appearance of he stripper is the Divider Color submenu under Profile. It currently reads:
    Divider Color: Current map

    "It isn't there if you don't want to see it, pilot boy Frank. It's all a matter of perspective. Everyone should be allowed to have a little fun." Despite these words, however, Gatto slashes the air with a hand and dismisses the illusion, then sits back in her seat and astrally perceives towards the back of the 'coptor.

    "[Gatto, Brachiel; Cougar says hi. And I'll start monitoring the news feeds and Lonestar transmissions.]"

    [Kitty: querry any local news feeds and pull up anything about crime in the area lately. Also, scan for the local Lonestar transmissions. When you find them pipe the transmissions to everybodies PANs: text only. If we get a call halt scanning for the transmissions until we drop off the client.]

    "[As soon as we tune into the fequency the LS are using I'm having Kitty transmit the text of what they're saying to each of you. You'll continue to recieve it until we need to pick up a client; at which point it will resume once we've dropped them off. Let me know if you'd rather not get that.]"

    Looking warily at the Divider Color menu, Frank decides not to mess with it now for fear of starting something he can't stop.

    [Kitty, no matter what keep the Color Divider at Currant Map. If anything except me, even some program that's a part of you, tries to change it deny it access. Understand?]

"The entire team is the extraction unit, not just me. You will be required to assist with it, in firesupport and transportation of the client to the chopper." He grins slightly.

    Gregory just sits quietly. Its hard to tell if he's enjoying the ride or not. He just massgaes his arms a bit every now and then and scans the incoming messages as they come in. Then he sends a message of his own.

    In response to the ork's question, Mig starts to translate. [Aggravated assault at Bermuda and Garrison. Possible Robbery at the Stuffer Shack. Possible rape at Bollinger.] She grates out the word 'rape', clearly displeased by it. [Breaking and entering in Vernon was a false alarm.]

    Gatto takes a mirror out of her bag and appears to look at herself in it. She is, in fact, reading the activity list reflected in it. When she finishes, she snaps the mirror shut and puts it away.

    "You just want to go check out the new girls at the Stuffer Shack, Brachial. You can admit it to us. We're your team after all." She grins, but does not turn around.

    "[Unless the robbery is being commited by someone who's heisted quite a bit; it's unlikely the person at Stuffer Shack is a client. We'll get a bit closer just in case though.]" With that Frank maneuvers so they're a bit closer and oriented towards Stuffer Shack.
