((Well, even if he was dead he'd probably just be annoyed later.))
Conall nods in approval at Kate's plan. Then he quickly walks past her towards where Lenny went.
"Let's go, let's go, let's go..."

[AlleeCat]

"Well, 'at's a right fine mess, innit?" Kate realizes her mistake and clears her throat, "I mean, err... We should get out of here."

She then runs after Lenny, attempting to knock over that market stall to block any pursuers if possible.

Ulgurk smirks. "I dunno about my associate here but I'm always willing for a little extra money. I'll do it Quickdraw." He turns to John, "You don' have to help but I suggest you do. More money is always welcome." He grimaces for a second, "If you do help tho' don't go telling the others, we don't need them breathing down our neck asking where their share is." Without waiting he sets off to look for the others and tell them what they found out.

Accept the job then go and try to find the other members.

[Tack]

John gives a greedy grin. This was why he liked working with Ulgurk.
"Sure, sure. Business as usual, as long as we know where my share is."

He points an accusing finger at the Blackguard.
"And your eyes on it, Quickdraw - it had better damned well be expensive dirt."

John & Ulgurk



"Let's just say that I know a certain lady who would be willing to pay generously for the dirt. I don't skim on shares. And now, I have businesses to attend elsewhere." With nary a farewell, the Quickdraw Blackguard disappeared into the gaggle of dock workers again, managing to be unnoticeable despite his conspicuous cloak.

Of course, the pay is encouraging, but would the ____ Club be that easy to learn from? The Blackguard Quickdraw didn’t say anything about what happened to the other people who tried to spy on them, but that attitude never made anyone rich down here.

Josephine, Jonathan & Charles

One of the urchin sniggered at some jape Josephine is not privy to, and is promptly shushed by One-Eyed Urchin.

“I appreciate your enthusiasm, Miss, however, there is a reason I specified later…” his one good eye glanced at the Constable who is apparently too busy gnawing on some rubbery lumps to notice the rooftop conference. As sudden as they appeared, the urchins dispersed into the darkness of the roofs.



Jonathan’s Investigation roll: ( )(+)( )(-) VS 2: Failure!

Pendle went back to scout the apartment building, hoping that the other two would join up with him. Unfortunately, he is one of the poor souls who does not possess an ability to see through walls, and so he must resort to reconnaissance through windows, of which are all closed.


Kate and Conall

Kate briefly admired the mess she made, and as she followed Conall she casually pushed over the market stall while attentions are directed at the constable.



They took a shortcut to Lenny the Nose’s hideout which, unbeknownst to Burbon and the rest of the Constables, is very close by. A monocled and elderly gentleman walked out of the door, and sniffled.

((Of note, Fallen London updated most of their art lately [unsure when]
I do however, adore the formalities and complexity of this narrative vocabulary. ))

Josephine, Jonathan & Charles

Noting the sudden lack of urchins, Josephine turned to her otherwise environmentally oriented ally, Charles.

"Now that we're alone, I do notice that we've spent quite some time here. Do you think we should get back to the rest and continue with our task?"

[Tack]

"... Charming chap, that... Let's get back t' the group. This gear's burnin' a hole in my pack."

[kj1225]

Conall walks up to the older gentleman.
"I'm sorry to need to tell you this sir but we're out of Burbon."

[Sergius]

"Agreed, we should join the others. They seem to know their way around this area than we do."

Josephine, Jonathan & Charles



Finding their trail stopped by an irritable landlady who is likely accustomed to burglars, the three decide to look for Kate and Conall who seem to be more at home on the streets of Spite. Finding them wasn’t all that easy, but than again it’s not often that you see uniformed monster hunters walking around the streets and after some exchange of secrets a kindly old man in a ridiculous hat recited his impromptu riddle which led the three to a meeting of a certain monocled gentleman, Kate, and Conall. The riddle was probably worth the nights that they will lose, having to recall their primordial memories, things buried so deep they do not even remember they know.

Let's move on and never mention it again.

Kate & Conall



Lenny the Nose chuckled. “Well then, I’m guessing that now it’s my turn to scratch yer back, eh?”

He glanced at the three briefly and doffed his hat, figuring quickly that the five are working together.

“Yer two be working with the Department now, is it?” he asked, “Just to make it clear, I might be a master of disguises, but I’m not a Snuffer.” he added with a sly wink.

John & Ulgurk



John and Ulgurk made an agreement to keep their little job a secret from the others. They did not shake their hands on it, lest it look even more nefarious than it already is. They head for Caligula’s to begin catching up with the others.

Their travel was relatively uneventful, of course, this being Fallen London there is a few affair with a lion chasing them down a street, a rat-Prince in hiding trying to enlist them for his aid and instead getting the business end of Ulgurk’s fist, a runaway blemmigan which the two informed the nearby Constables to catch, and last but not least a gargoyle which tried to steal John’s liver. The usual.

You already know what the others were up to during all that time. Soon the two caught up with everyone else.

[AlleeCat]

"Hey, who do ya think we are? We were gonna tell ya! Just gopt caught up in the moment is all. We're lookin' for somebody, by the by."

"Well now, miss... Kate was it?" Lenny the Nose is already thinking, likely guessing about which bogey the five would be hunting "You'll have to be more specific *snft* than that. I haven't figured out how to *snft* read minds yet. I don't even know if this somebody is human, clay, or squid."

[Tack]

"We got some info on our Mr Baker." John gives a suspicious nod to the monocled gentleman.
"Also:"

Code: [Select]

Experimental Blunderbuss: A blunderbuss modified to be able to use nearly anything as ammunition, for the resourceful. Judging from its look, though, the rounds have a tendency to blow up in the user's face.
Aspect: Junk rounds

Stonework Rifle: A rifle apparently made entirely out of stone. These sort of things would fetch a high price as a curiosity. Judging from its wear, a lot of people used to think so, too. Too bad aiming is difficult when something is this heavy.
Aspect: Elegant and Heavy

All guns are equipped with bayonets, allowing them to perform close-range attacks.

Glistening Chitin-plate: A light armor made out of some unknown chitin. Probably something big and common, judging from the price. In certain light, it looks like it's made out of mirrors.
Aspect: Walking Mirrors

Far Khanate(?) Fullplate: You weren't sure this counted as light armor, nor why Mr. Carrow is parting with it at such a cheap price. Until you realize it's a costume. The leather is firm enough, I suppose.
Aspect: Costumed Vigilante

Midnight Sable: A unique and elegant attire, although it may attract the wrong sort of attention.
Aspect: Anarchist's BlackHis eyes light up."Guns."

"They seem busy," Josephine said to the gentleman near her. "Let's collect our findings when they're done talking."
