17 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,000 Beth is playing Grace, aka Nightingale. 18 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,000 Val is playing Ollie, aka Boxer. 19 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,000 And Cat is playing Deandre. 20 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,000 This is episode 17. 21 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,000 Our game sessions usually run between 3 and 4 hours. 22 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:42,000 And after editing, that usually leaves me with about 2 and a half hours of content. 23 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,000 Which is why I break the sessions in half. 24 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:50,000 It's easier to manage the editing, and it gives me a chance to actually complete an episode a week. 25 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,000 Usually. 26 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:59,000 We passed 500 downloads about two weeks ago, and I want to let you all know how much I appreciate you spending your time with us. 27 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,000 And I really hope you enjoy the podcast. 28 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:08,000 Recently I've been leaning into the sound design more heavily, and I hope it is a welcome change. 29 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,000 We would love to hear from you, whether it is to be praise or criticism. 30 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:16,000 If you are listening to us on a service that allows you to rate us, please do so. 31 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,000 Help us to hack that algorithm with a 5-star review. 32 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:26,000 Most importantly though, we thank you for listening, and hope you will continue to do so, and spread the word to your friends. 33 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:33,000 Watch your backs, conserve your ammo, scrub the data trail, and don't make deals with dragons. 34 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,000 Hello! 35 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,000 We have a plan. We need a location. 36 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:44,000 Indeed. And I believe I should be the one who selects this. 37 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,000 We have established that it must be an urban. 38 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,000 Dandel, I do believe you said you had some manner of contact. 39 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,000 Contact is a strong word on this occasion. 40 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,000 I have a friend. 41 00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:01,000 Are there sorts of friends you want to keep this little engagement out of the jurisdiction? 42 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,000 Or do you want to ensure it happens in the jurisdiction? 43 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,000 It would be easier if it happened in the jurisdiction. 44 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,000 Then we shall make sure it is within the jurisdiction. 45 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:16,000 In that case I will want to select the ideal position for, let's see... 46 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:23,000 We want it to be relatively isolated filling, that we want it to be an air where civilian presence is minimal. 47 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,000 We want there to be a good opportunity for ambush of our targets, that is the sergeant. 48 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:38,000 In this case, that means a position for me to set up with a rifle, and whatever requirements for the rest of you are. 49 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:42,000 And we probably want it to be in locations as I said. 50 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:47,000 That doesn't arouse suspicion. If you ask him to show up at an abandoned warehouse... 51 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:54,000 Oh, that's not happening. A park perhaps. Or some less active part of town. 52 00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:05,000 One that is somewhat public, but one that is not populated enough, where we will have to worry about people running through the streets. 53 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,000 Or worse, pressing a button to call more. 54 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,000 Furthermore, we have to account for the possibility of him being back up. 55 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:21,000 Ranging from just a couple of police, usually deadlift, or perhaps something heavier if he expects. 56 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:27,000 One thing about George is that he may be a scumbag. He's not dumb. 57 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,000 Exactly. And he has to... 58 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:39,000 He's quite arrogant, so my impression from the meeting with him is that he does not rate us very highly. 59 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:45,000 He looks at Dandere. I think you got the same impression. 60 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:52,000 Dandere... the most you've ever seen Dandere get angry is like her eye twitch. 61 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:59,000 That is probably the exact thing that's happening right now, is Dandere remembering that meeting. 62 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,000 Whatever. I don't read people. I put them in the dirt. 63 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:07,000 And I can do that here. That's what I have to do, I assume. 64 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:13,000 Since I doubt we're going to convince him to get in the back of this suspicious van with us. 65 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:20,000 Dandere lives in Auburn. Would she know of a park that meets our specifications in Auburn? 66 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:24,000 Or just a street. Anything works. Actually, I'm not sure of a park. 67 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:33,000 You guys have enough knowledge of the Auburn area that you can pretty much describe to us where you want to have this meeting. 68 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:39,000 Preferably something with some kind of overlook. Like maybe an abandoned building nearby? 69 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:45,000 Yes, I need the position from which I can engage them. Preferably not so far as to... 70 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:55,000 We can arrange a specific spot. I want sight lines. I want an area that can be easily swept beforehand. 71 00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:00,000 For that, Nightingale, I will be wanting to employ your unique magical talents. 72 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:09,000 I don't suppose you can detect... do weapons register with your magic vision, whatever? 73 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:17,000 Well, if a gun is just sitting there and hasn't been touched in a long time, it won't. 74 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:23,000 But there's a lot of intentionality in the way that metahumans handle their weapons because they're so dangerous. 75 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:29,000 They do look distinct, and if I give them a look for long enough, I'll be able to tell that it's meant to be a weapon. 76 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,000 Excellent. In that case, you're going to be with me sweeping the surrounding buildings. 77 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:39,000 Also, when he arrives, make sure you see anyone new. Scan them for weapons. 78 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:45,000 They will be on their hips or concealed in jackets, depending on if they're being overt about it. 79 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:52,000 On their backs or on slings. I can show you images so you can identify them faster. 80 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:59,000 You will be on lookout for armed people and people who... I can teach you, I suppose, what the kind of... 81 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:09,000 Actually, Diender, you were a police, right? Yes. You would say you have retained a sort of confidence manner that many police carry themselves with. 82 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,000 A little bit. Hmm. 83 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:18,000 I'd define it for a resident magical horse. He needs to be able to recognize it. 84 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:25,000 If not, I can give her something that's close, that is a military bearing, but it would be different, obviously. 85 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,000 Maybe we should go outside before you start doing charades. 86 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:33,000 I can show the horse later, but... Oh, of course. 87 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:42,000 Beyond that, we should probably try to have some good matrix cordon on the area, if possible. 88 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,000 What, you want all the cameras in the area? Yeah. 89 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,000 Okay. Okay. So... 90 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,000 They're cameras. They're like public access. 91 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:57,000 Yeah. We'd like them circulating footage, right? So that we don't show up on them. 92 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:09,000 Oh, I thought you meant watch them. I mean, I can get cameras in the area, but the likelihood that there's a camera with a good angle on where we'll be fighting is unlikely. 93 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:14,000 So, we need two of us to investigate a point. 94 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:21,000 I mean, sight lines, planned out, places to stand. We need a blind spot in the camera, stuff like that. 95 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:27,000 I have to peach the horse to recognize people carrying... 96 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,000 Carrying what? I just need the firearms. 97 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,000 And also that Amina is a police officer. 98 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:38,000 Yeah. I mean, I've seen a lot of cops in my time. I just need the chance to de-arrest with... 99 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:43,000 Not that special. What about a plain clothes officer? 100 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,000 Oh, that may be a little bit harder for me. 101 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:53,000 I think DeAndre starts scanning the streets until she finds a clothes officer. 102 00:08:53,000 --> 00:09:01,000 DeAndre scans the street. It's a good place for... until she finds a plain clothes officer. 103 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:06,000 I'd imagine if this is a busy place, then there'd be at least... every now and again. 104 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,000 Yeah. Probably. It's Tacoma. 105 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,000 You're cutting out a little on every sentence. 106 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:16,000 DeAndre is pointing out a plain clothes police officer with a box one. 107 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:25,000 She's looking for that plain clothes police officer. She also realizes that this place might actually be staked out. 108 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,000 Olga's tea room may be the subject of a stakeout. 109 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:32,000 Cecil, I suggest you find somewhere else to get your tea in the morning. 110 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,000 Let's buy. 111 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,000 Give it a few days. 112 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:40,000 So yeah, you've been pointed out a plain clothes police officer outside. 113 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:49,000 Nightingale, like, slips underneath the table onto the ground and makes a little whining noise and goes to the door. 114 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:53,000 Like she is a dog that needs to urinate so that she can look at them in the astral. 115 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,000 By the way... 116 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,000 To see if there's anything that seems to distinguish them. 117 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:08,000 What I'm referencing here is basically the confidence and the sort of selfishness that comes with, A, training in how to hurt people in that capacity. 118 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:18,000 And the mandate that they have to be able to do that legally and B, the confidence that comes with carrying a weapon. 119 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:30,000 Basically, it's the idea that it registers in the astral that they are armed and that because they are armed, they are willing to do that. 120 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,000 Capacity for violence. 121 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:39,000 Yes, they have a capacity for violence and they have a certain confidence in their ability to use it. 122 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:44,000 So when do we want to do this? At night, probably? 123 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,000 I would be more suspicious if at night. 124 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:53,000 You know, when most people at work during the afternoon, that is my proposition. 125 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:59,000 Yeah, I was going to say, I feel like they might actually have an easier time with the dark than we would. 126 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,000 Speak for yourself. 127 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,000 It doesn't have to be today, does it? 128 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,000 We'd like it to be as soon as possible. 129 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,000 Our Mr. Johnson will get antsy if we wait too long. 130 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,000 Yeah, I imagine George will get antsy too. 131 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:22,000 I'm fine with evening, it's just, you know, how late is it now, Paul? 132 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,000 It's mid-morning. 133 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,000 You guys have been sitting over your teas. 134 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,000 You've had at least one or two refills as you discussed this. 135 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,000 Uh, Boxer would never drink the tea. 136 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,000 She is getting the coffee. 137 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,000 arqish coffee. 138 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,000 So, we're messaging Von Hausen? 139 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,000 No, we're finding a place. 140 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,000 Yeah. 141 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:46,000 Who's got the...are you guys...you guys already have a place in mind, right? 142 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,000 Either D&D or Boxer have a place in mind. 143 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:52,000 D&D probably has a few places in mind in Auburn. 144 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,000 Yeah. 145 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,000 I don't know about Boxer. 146 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,000 They can collaborate on that. 147 00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:01,000 Why don't you guys just give me a description of the place you want, and that'll be the place. 148 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:10,000 Some place not suspicion arousing, with some kind of hidden-ish overlook where Boxer or somebody else can do Overwatch. 149 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:15,000 Preferably, cameras support, that's like everywhere. 150 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:21,000 So, we have found some place, somewhere to have this meet. 151 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,000 Yeah, the place. 152 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,000 So, there's the tower...not tower. 153 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:32,000 There's the area overlook with an unobstructed view to the... 154 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,000 Boxer would absolutely insist there's plentiful cover. 155 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,000 Yes. 156 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,000 How about if... 157 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,000 Covering could see on that. 158 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:48,000 So, we know that Auburn is a fairly industrial area. 159 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:54,000 What if there is a car lot that you know of?

They're just dead. 598 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,000 OK, good.

The elevator takes you up to the floor that you've pre-designated. 627 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:54,000 You find the office number that is currently vacant. However, the door is locked. 628 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,000 Is it an electronic door? 629 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,000 Must are. 630 00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,000 Yep, it is a mag lock. 631 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:03,000 Can Cecile just open that if Boxer complains? 632 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:06,000 Cecile's not there. 633 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,000 He's complaining again. 634 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:24,000 So Cecile's out, headed towards the car lot with Ice and Dandir. 635 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:31,000 Oh my god. There's an intense temptation. Never mind. It's a very niche reference. 636 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:46,000 Anyway, Boxer's just frowning at the door. See, at the moment, her pride is battling with her inability to get through this door without breaking the door. 637 00:38:46,000 --> 00:39:14,000 So she turns to Nightgall. I don't suppose you can peek a lock? 638 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:27,000 The Tops Company, Inc. has sole ownership of the names, logo, artwork, marks, photographs, sounds, audio, video, and or any proprietary material used in connection with the game Shadowrun. 639 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:46,000 The Tops Company, Inc. has granted permission to the Hard Knocks Sorority Podcast to use such names, logos, artwork, marks, and or any proprietary materials for promotional and informational purposes on its website, but does not endorse and is not affiliated with the Hard Knocks Sorority Podcast in any official capacity whatsoever. 640 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:51,000 The music for the Hard Knocks Sorority Podcast was written and performed by Trace Mineral. 641 00:39:51,000 --> 00:40:20,000 The Hard Knocks Sorority Podcast is licensed under a Creative Commons License 4.0, meaning you are welcome to use the material as long as you give us credit.
