Hey, Eskaton, nice to see ya! :D
I finished with all the things up to connection adjectives.
Here's the story of how Rabbit knows Goodchild, hope it doesn't seem way too out of character for Trevor!
[ +- ] Rabbit and Goodchild
The most important information for White Rabbit, the card that he always holds close to his chest, is his persona. Of course, the closest neighbourhood of his clinic suspects things, and there's only so high a limit in masking your features, but not many wish to get on a bad side of the most qualified surgeon in the area who doesn't ask questions. Unfortunately, sometimes James slips up, and the leads to connect his two lives end up in the hands of people whose eagerness for financial gain is stronger than desire to keep a useful connection. And usually, they don't have much patience, and the whole thing ends up resolved quickly one way or another.
But a few years ago, Rabbit managed to get entangled into a deal much larger than his usual connections, with double-crossing players who were willing to stretch out their blackmail routine, long enough to unnerve even the usually collected doctor. Realizing that with them having information on him there will never be a guarantee of his safety, Riverguard broke one of his original principles - never involving anyone in his business, - and started to search for a hacker with a low enough profile to not attract attention, and not that bad a reputation to profit from the data themselves. Eventually, he found Goodchild.
Initially hesitant, White Rabbit nevertheless approached the hacker, with an offer of a job in exchange for money and future medical support. Trevor agreed, apparently unbothered by a gloom surgeon in a rabbit mask asking to break into some pharmaceutical company's servers, and even though their personalities, speaking lightly, didn't mix well, the entire deal was a success - with a minor exception of the duo having to approach the company's warehouse and almost getting caught by the security.
Since then, White Rabbit has some respect for the hacker, and keeps him on radar - even though they rarely cross paths, approaching each other only for minor favors. It's not very surprising that once there was another threat of his identity being revealed, White Rabbit connected Goodchild again, despite some apprehension about once again dealing with the same person.
And here's my items (assuming that I can use Shark from Krishna). :D
[ +- ] Items
*Scalpel is just a knife with a different name.
*Hornet is a custom drone that is something like a flying Spyder loaded with tranquilizer. I wasn't sure if I had to make tranquilizer a separate item or if it's acceptable for it to just be an upgrade tag (Technoir doesn't really use ammo, right?).
Specs (display, gesture input, linked, sound, firewall, encryption) - 6
Medikit (bandages, linked, stims) - 3
Hornet* (small, syringe, tranquilizer, rotor-fan, linked) - 5
Scalpel* (small, sharp) - 2
This leaves me with 4 kred and a debt of 10 to Krishna. :D
Edit: actually, if I want to have a mask, should I make it an item? I'm not sure what adjectives it would have. XD
