Avox hears the signal and curses to himself. He removes himself from his low-laying, and heads towards the station. Hoping to not hear blaster fire, at least not until he gets there.
OOC:
I Understand that he likely will not be there until they pass Bo, so its in the hands of our dear Doctor and Talkers.

One of the stormtroopers starts to reply, "Aren't you a bit long in the tooth.." when his companion interrupts him. "Glad to hear it, citizen. The empire is always looking for new recruits." She points to the recruiting office. "You'll want to come back in the morning, though. Just arrived? It takes a while to get used to local time."
Feb 20, 2017 7:08 pm
Doc, as discretely as he can, activates his commlink and sends a brief message to Bo "You may have party guests shortly, the ambassadors buying you a few moments though" he mutters into the comm
Feb 20, 2017 7:44 pm
Jack, upon hearing the beeping in his commlink, takes the bothersome device out of his ear and places it down on the bar. He returns to his drink without further concern.

Savi nods at the more responsive trooper. "I haven't been on planet long, no. And yes, I am a bit long in the tooth, but I have a great deal of experience young man. I might not be able to charge into battle along side you valiant young heroes, but I can pull my weight, I assure you."

He gives a knowing smile and a conspiratorial wink. "I was told this was the correct place to come offer my services to the Empire, but is his just for trooper recruitment? Is there someone I should speak to, or a different place to visit for recruitment into the intelligence branch? I want very much to help deliver information to the right people so that brave young people like you don't wind up charging in to unknown situations. I think you'd agree that good intel will help you guys win the war much sooner and with less needless death among your valiant ranks."
OOC:
Taking a boost from my last advantages, if that's ok.

Bo just keeps her head down. Sounds like the troopers might just be on patrol and have no interest in the recruiting station as long as we don't give them any suspicion. Hopefully this will just pass. Bo watches her commlink for any signs of trouble, but has a feeling that will be obvious from the noise outside. She takes a deep breath and tries to remain calm.

OOC:
Savi: Yes, of course. How would you like to spend your Advantages this time?
OOC:
Boha, give me a Stealth roll. Take a blue die for Savi's distraction and another for Doc's warning. Average difficulty.

OOC:
Can my advantages manifest in the troopers being enamored with my motivations to the point of drawing out the conversation and buying more time for Bo (if they are headed her way), or simply giving me a helpful answer then going on their way (if they are headed away from the recruitment office)?

The troopers glance at each other and the woman answers you, "Yes, that's the recruiting station for Bespin. But if you're saying that you have information already that might be useful to the Empire, that's a different story."

Bo feels the eyes of the troopers on the exterior of the recruiting station. She cups the lights of the cylinder device to conceal the blinking aura. She hunkers down, still and cautious.

"No, not at all. I'm sorry. No, I meant that although I am not quite as fit and physically able as you lot, I could help out in other ways. I'd be more than happy to serve, It's just that I would be better suited toward snatching up tid bits of intel rather than charging head long into a fray. I leave that sort of thing to the real heroes." He winks and pats the trooper on her armoured shoulder.

Unsure just how long he needs to stall these people, but certain their patience will wear thin sooner rather than later, Savi steps aside in such a way as to both clear a path down the street for them while simultaneously stepping inbetween them and thhe recruitment station. If they wish to head that way he will, fumblingly, be in their way.

"Laying it on a little.." the male stormtrooper begins before his partner's elbow cuts him off.

She turns to Savi and nods. "Understood, citizen. The empire is always looking for good recruits who know their value."

She pauses for a moment before continuing, "He's not wrong, though. Might want to tone it down when you talk to the recruiter."

She gives you another nod, as does her companion, before they continue down the corridor past the office.

OOC:
Well done, everyone.
As Bo hears the troopers move off, she feels a slight vibration from the device under her hands. Peeking through her fingers, she sees that the light has changed from red to green, indicating the device has completed its task.
Feb 23, 2017 3:55 pm
Bo twists the device to unlock it from the computer tower. She slinks up to the door. She comms the team, "Any twouble out dah? Is duh stweet emptah?" She glance about the office so see if there is anything else useful.
Feb 23, 2017 3:58 pm
Doc sighs with relief as the troopers move off, picking his drink up without thinking about it and downing it. Hearing Bo's query he starts heading to the door of the cantina and discreetly comms Bo a simple "All clear" in return before heading off down the street.
Feb 23, 2017 5:46 pm
Avox gets to the area in a huff, but calms down as he hears the "all clear" on the comm.
Feb 24, 2017 12:42 am
I did lay it on a little thick. But you lot bought it so, I'm happy.

Savi watches the troopers continue down the street. Unsure whether he did a good job of deflecting a threat, or just prolonged one by keeping the patrol hanging around longer than they would have, he returns to his bench and takes out his datapad.

Bo needs to finish up soon. I'm going to start looking suspicious here.

Nothing else is immediately obvious that would be useful in the office, and the streets are clear.
OOC:
Next steps? Rest? Reconvene? Reconnoiter?

OOC:
I think we were hoping to look through the data we acquired with Kiph and figure out if blackmail is a possibility, or if we're going to have to threaten some of these folk.
Feb 24, 2017 8:30 am
OOC:
Yeah, I would have assumed we'd have planned to reconvene somewhere after the 'caper' to review the data and decide upon next steps
