Heist the Colours (RP)

- Lio -

Your eye finally settles on a high roottop across the street from the park. A man stands, one hand shading his eyes as he scans the horizon, looking for something. You don't think he was standing there before the order to look for your snipers, so chances are he is this 'Rudolf'.

You can't see his other hand, so you don't know what weapons he has, but you also judge that he barely within effective range of a laser pistol, even a nice one like yours.

The woman appraises you appreciatively as she backs away, still covered by GJ.

"Who are you 'working' for'?" She rebounds your question with a grin. There is no reason for her to answer you, but she seems intrigued even if she does not really care about your answer.

Her mouth is close to GJ's ear and she whispers something into it. GJ does not seem more relaxed by what she said.

What do you do?

- Lio -

Distracted as the woman is by Cat and other events she does not notice your intent or movement. 'Rudolf' has not looked down, he is still searching the rooftops and has moved a little closer to the edge and to you. You figure you are now within the Long Range capabilities of your snazzy pistol and there is some nearby foliage that may provide some Concealment if not any Cover.

Craig stands slowly, not breaking eye-contact as he confirms that you are willing to allow him to even the playing-field... and relieve his cramp. His gun wavers slightly, but mostly remains trained on you and follows as you circle him. His back ends up completely towards your companions.

"Uh? Yeah." He says when you confirm his name. "Funny. Yeah." He does not sound convinced. Standing there he suddenly looks very young.

His eye is drawn to your coat and then the armour under it. He is wishing he had armour right now. "Uh? No." He agrees that chest-holes are not on his todo list today.

"I, uh, have to push a button to talk on the comms." He explains as though this is complicated stuff. One hand moves towards his ear before he swiftly pulls it away again, not wanting risk your thinking he is 'communication without your consent'.

What do you do?

Walking backwards and 'dragging' GJ, the woman stumbles slightly as she leaves the path, but she regains her footing and vanishes into the bushes and trees.

"Tell me when." Bob replies, sounding nervous.

New Round.

What do you all do?

"Ice-cream van!" Bob exclaims in (mock?) outrage, but you can hear the enthusiasm in his voice as he continues. "Yes! I will give them some of the good stuff! And there is only one 'volume'."

The sound of Abby's groan on the comms is overwhelmed by the roar of 'music' from the far side of the park. If the woman holding GJ reacts in any way, you can not hear it.

What do you do?

Craig jumps slightly when the sudden noise-assault arrives, his eyes dart all around for a moment and you see his finger tense on his trigger --this is why one keeps the finger off the trigger right up until the moment one intends to pull it-- but he has enough self-control to not quite shoot you by mistake.

It does not take him long to realise it is just music from the street, before his eyes snap back to you.

You might have a moment of distraction to use to your advantage if you act quickly.

What do you do?

- Lio -

Your target is poised in about the best position if you still intend to take the shot. He is leaning over the edge looking down at the street. A good shot might cause him topple from the roof to the concrete several stories below. He might also be able to report to the boss about Bob's van, but that assumes they know about the connection between that van your party, is that likely? You can't know for sure.

What do you do?

- Cat -

The woman has dragged GJ into the bushes. Right now, in such close quarters and concealment, a gun is less useful than a blade. If you go after her you would have the edge. The noise of Bob's 'music' will cover any the sound of your footfalls, but will cover hers too, your advantage is that you know she went in there while she does not know what you will do.

What do you do?

- Ronny -

Your aural-assault has begun. Your contact and the computer you came for has been dragged away into the bushes. Movement on the path will be faster than in the bushes, so you may be able to circle round and cut them off if you can predict where they aim to come out.
