[Comrade P.]

Everyone else: "Alright, first things first. Smoky, can you shapeshift?

- To a certain extent.

Try to shapeshift into the closest person.

(Morion, she's a smoky Quartz)

((Clarification for those who aren't sure what's that all about, technically this character has no gender, but her race traditionally prefers to use female gender pronouns. So there's that.))

[Salsacookies]

Dee[2]: Unfortunately, you didn't find anything to tinker with on your way there.

Morion[4]: You successfully morph into the physical shape of Dee, if somewhat larger. Your crystal and main colors remain the same, however.

"Nice, I see you do fine. Now, can you shape into this?"
*You hear a beep in your gps. In it is a video of a Pearl, digging for coal.*

[Comrade P.]

- I mean, my standard functionality does not include mimic options, but as you see I can pull it off sometimes.

Do try to morph into Pearl.
((For reference - Pearl is another subspecies of Gemkind, primarily used as servants. Generally slender and bland in appearance.))

[Salsacookies]

Morion[2]: You fizzle slightly, before returning to your original form.

"Ah, it's fine, you have plenty o'time to get it right. Now, my plan was, to dig behind this friend of mine, and rob him blind. You see, besides the guards, all of his workers are Pearls. Maids, Miners, chefs, etc.. He says it's a cheaper way to mine, but his output says otherwise. I believe he has a thing for them, and he's currently missing "The Black Pearl", until now.

*He gestures his hand toward Morion.*

- I'll need to hide the original gem in my appearance modifiers somewhere... Go on, while I'm thinking of it.

"Yeah, the guy we're robbin', name's Jeremy Lane, owner of the Coal Mine A1. What's makes him a target worth considerin' is that he's somehow managed to become friends with one of the Meritocrats higher up, but isn't Meritocratic. Slimy Landlubber the man, in more than one.
 The bloody Roti is molting, the perfect time to strike, I say. Man's vainer than a Spanierd. Anyways, we rob him, destroy the mine, and gain reputation, with half the risk involved. Sound like a good deal?"

(He's a Roti, a cold-blooded race that looks humanoid, but ages at an accelerated rate. At the end of the cycle, they molt, making them look like zombies, until the process is finished. Afterwards, they look young, and the process repeats itself.)

[TheBiggerFish]

"I like the bit where we blow up the mine."

[Comrade P.]

- So you need me to morph into a black Pearl to pass the security under the premise of special delivery and then just assist the rest in wreaking havoc? Alright. Calling a sixth part of whatever material wealth we carry out of it. Also, are we killing the guy or leave him to face the consequences? Or are we starting with me killing him right away when he gets his hands on a black Pearl?

[Zormod]

"I'm up for it."

[_DivideByZero_]

Emily continued furiously scratching notes, having already answered before.

[Pancaek]

"sounds good to me"

[NJW2000]

Dee arrives.

"I'll help, I have some limited experience with... ahem... security management... you might want a handyman on the place. As my share, I'd like... the most interesting item we find, or failing that, a major share in it."

[Comrade P.]

Bump.

[Salsacookies]

With negotions made and plans spoken, a voice comes from the intercom.

"Captain green blob. Ship fixed. Repairs[1!][4] were finished, and we will be paid in 1,000 ounces of Centralian Coal. Stormalong I3-E7 will discontinue services until then. Thank you, and have good times."

With that, robots come to confiscate your drinks and eatery from the all of you.

"Well, I suppose we be off then. May my crew hitch a ride? Me ships under repair as well, and we best be movin swiftly, before things go bad."

[Comrade P.]

Let's do this! Practice morphing while we're on our way, do the Black Pearl when necessary. See if there's, by chance, a bounty on the head of that Jeremy Lane.
