Shelbie finally comes face to face with Kiho Mori, the mysterious founder of the Lamplighters, and to Shelbie's surprise, Kiho and her teammate Itande offer her a deal. With so much on the line, can she afford to turn it down? But with costs like this, what will happen if she takes it?

SPEAKER_07

Hi, it's Little Chomp, and welcome back to the Chaos Crew 2 podcast. Last time on Digimon, we had a very large battle that involved four members of the Zodiac 13, and then five Digimon with Digidestin partners. So it was kind of complicated and messy, but we eventually won, which is great. There's a lot of Digivolutions, and Orgamon thinks Where Garura Mon is super cool, because she has never seen an Ultimate before. She accidentally told Matt's secret about his crush on Zora to everybody and felt bad about it. And Kyo wanted to leave the group and go adventuring as pirates. But um she wasn't strong enough to move the ship that he wanted to sail on, and now he's upset and won't talk to her. The next morning, she woke up and found that he had left the little hut that they were sleeping in. But before she could check on him, the other Digimon asked her to play tag, which was super great. So they did that for a bit. And then saw something sparkly out in the forest. So they went out to find it, and she ran into a an ultimate Digimon that looks like a tree, who gave her a riddle puzzle. If she solved it, she'd win a prize. If she didn't, she'd get beaten to death. She got through two rounds of that, got some prizes, and then he got shot in the back by a gear. Meanwhile, back in the human world, Lena got the name of Sleeker's base out of his underling. Through violence and intimidation, mostly, but hey, we have it. And then she dropped Shelby off to go take that guide to the ministry and told Tojiro to head to the red light district. They called a bit about what was going on and agreed to meet up at a coffee shop. Once they were on their way, Shelby talked with Voxmont a little bit, and everything was going fine until a couple members of Tactics Team 9 showed up. One of them is Keel. The woman she's heard about for ages. They want to make a deal about this upcoming job. And it's up to Shelby to decide. Hey, just a quick heads-up. This session happened on the same night as the Roll 20 outage. So there's gonna be some disjointed cuts in this. I'm really sorry. But if there's like an hour gap in between scenes or in the middle of a conversation or something, I just I can't completely smooth that out. So apologies.

SPEAKER_14

So yeah, we start off as you are standing face to face with Keo Mori and another member of Team Tactics who hasn't really. I believe he told you his name was Itanda Lok.

SPEAKER_02

You did.

SPEAKER_14

Perfect. As Keo stares you down as she oh pretty much we finished on the idea that she was like, it's probably good that we talk. We used to be part of the same team after all.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, more or less.

SPEAKER_14

As yeah. She's staring at you as Lolo just oh, this is interesting. See, sits on the curve, as he oh you're as she looks at your Digimon as she uh is that one yours walking up and asking stuff.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, why?

SPEAKER_14

He looks weak. So do you as you hear I can assure you she's not as you feel something in the back of your spine, as a staff is touching you, as this Digimon stands there, is she? Oh no, sorcery man.

SPEAKER_06

What that ice wisp.

SPEAKER_14

We need to intimidate her. He walks past you, literally like staring wispy down as he does so. Not icewizmon, sorcerymon. That's literally its name.

SPEAKER_07

That's fine, it just looks like based on the pattern I think it's.

SPEAKER_14

Sorry, sorcermon. Uh yeah. It is a very much similar dress to Wizardmon, but it's actually not to wiz uh it's a comrade of Wizardmon apparently.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_14

As based he stares you down as Kyo stands there, she you uh uh have been given a task to go find uh sleeker Iwahiro, right?

SPEAKER_07

There's no reason for me to answer that one way or another.

SPEAKER_14

Let's presume that I'm correct.

SPEAKER_05

She shrugs.

SPEAKER_14

In that situation, uh you're probably going to go there and meet up with one of your other lamp lighters. Let me guess, they're gonna send. They'll probably send someone who's dumb in that sense as well. So Tojuro. If Tojuro is going to be down there, he's a uh he's a hammer that has no real way of getting into Sleeker's compound, finding Sleeker, any of the such. He's sort of point and break. What you need is someone who is capable of finding Sleeker and helping you infiltrate their compound. We're offering you that will leave the door open for you, per se, and allow you the opportunity to complete your mission. In return, we ask only one simple request. Sleek is inside, you can capture him, you can take him. The uh there is another person inside there. Uh Loria Langlorn. Uh, you leave her be, and we'll take care of her. Actually, no, it's not Loria, it's Julian. Julian Van Mo that they want.

SPEAKER_05

Ross girls, girls. Julian what?

SPEAKER_14

Sorry. Uh Julian Van uh Venmo.

SPEAKER_07

I think we need to back up. Which one of five stars do you guys actually work for?

SPEAKER_14

That's none of your business.

SPEAKER_07

Why not?

SPEAKER_14

Because the five stars well above your pay grade.

SPEAKER_07

Then why mention?

SPEAKER_14

Lamplight. Because I wanted to be on the up and up with you.

SPEAKER_12

Um after all, I want us to be uh copacetic in how we work.

SPEAKER_07

Do you still want to be on the up and up? Which one?

SPEAKER_14

Thank you, Lalo. Uh see well, I take uh I take orders from Keo, so if Keo doesn't want to, that's not my business. I see. As Kia stands there, she. You don't need to know the five stars. The lamp lighters are the worst uh cleaners in the business. Which is the case. You're the bottom of the bottom.

SPEAKER_02

Why are you here?

SPEAKER_14

Because you took this. Uh you took this mission, and this mission intersects with our mission. Which is and frankly, I don't feel like none of your business. I feel like I don't really need to deal with you's throwing a fit over here whilst we try to deal with our situation. If you'd like, we can just take sleeker ourselves. Take your bounty completely. I'm fine with that. She stares you down.

SPEAKER_07

I would like to roll crit and then give you the general thing that I want to know. Um, I know I don't have telepathy. We're not gonna get an actual answer. But I haven't even been a cleaner for a week. It is really weird for people affiliated with the five stars to be seeking me out specifically to talk to. Not any other member of this team who's established, but me. So I'm looking to see if any pieces put together because this is just wow.

SPEAKER_05

Nice. Nine? Yeah. Uh you roll a three, it's hard.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, there's not much you can do.

SPEAKER_07

What can I get anything if I get that to 10 or 15? Like, is there a DC I can spend points to roll?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah. If you can get it to 15, I'll give you something like important. 10 will give you like a baseline that might be wrong.

SPEAKER_02

I'll give you six.

SPEAKER_14

Nine is just you don't know. To get it to 15. Sure. Alright. So you realize that she's very like how to put this. As she's talking to you, you can you realize it's weird that she is talking to you, not like going to the others, but she has a pre-established relationship with the others. You realize she knows what they're like. She knows that none of them are motivated. But also, the pure factor the matter here is she seems to have some like thinking that this is like you're in charge here.

SPEAKER_07

What a strange idea. Okay, so I'm not getting the vibe that it's like you don't hate me yet, so I'm coming to you. Or there's something special about you.

SPEAKER_14

This wasn't my idea, but it's definitely not entirely her idea with 15. Uh, and you can tell there's, as I said, there's pre-established relationships with the others. Like, she's probably and you've heard them talk about her, and like we don't talk about her.

SPEAKER_16

Right.

SPEAKER_14

So it's probably a thing of that she's like, mmm, you're easier to talk to, sure, but you don't think she was like, this is a her choice situation. You can tell she doesn't seem to want to do this at all. Her contemplation on taking Sleek's bounty and that was straight up like that's what she wants to do.

unknown

Oh.

SPEAKER_07

Well, it does make more sense to do that anyway. Um so does it seem like it legitimately would actually play out the way that she says that they're going to take the person that they're after.

SPEAKER_14

It seems like it. It's hard to tell. It's very like this whole situation is very odd.

SPEAKER_04

Right.

SPEAKER_07

I wish someone on my team had said something about her. Instead of just like, here's her name, she left. Yeah, that's definitely all that matters. We're still pissy about it, but don't ask for details. And it's like what is the thing they're not saying?

SPEAKER_14

Um, and that's unfortunate. I know.

SPEAKER_07

You know, it really is unfortunate.

SPEAKER_14

It's the concept that people don't bear their souls immediately.

SPEAKER_07

But they offer you leadership of the team immediately while still treating you like.

SPEAKER_14

When you when you come into a group that is filled with a bunch of people that are like, fuck being leader, it's like yeah, random person who has decision-making capabilities. Welcome to leadership.

SPEAKER_18

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

Also, in theory, you're not the leader. Lena is.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, I know. I would like to hear your side of what happened.

SPEAKER_18

About what happened with what? Why we're not on the same team. That whole thing.

SPEAKER_14

We're not on the same team because you're worse than me. That's all you need to know.

SPEAKER_18

That's it. Okay, simple, straightforward. It's fair.

SPEAKER_14

Keo, Keo's pretty mean, but you know, dumb downline Keo's got skills, and uh honestly, we just want help with our mission, and it's professional courtesy, essentially. We help you, you help us, right? Cleaners should stick together.

SPEAKER_07

See, this is the fun thing. You're actually trying to be friendly, and she was like, Yeah, you should have left this one to me, but like, I don't know. I think maybe they should have left it to you.

SPEAKER_14

Haha. I mean, I think every uh every conversation can be solved with a smile and a bit of a a bit of charm. Uh she's just staring me down. She doesn't care for what he just said.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I didn't figure that she wanted.

SPEAKER_11

Yep.

SPEAKER_07

Well, it'd probably have been a better conversation for you to have with Lena, to be honest.

SPEAKER_14

I don't want to talk to Lena. And I don't think Lena wants to talk to me.

SPEAKER_07

So I think right now. But I don't think I have the authority to make decisions on behalf of my group.

SPEAKER_14

I'm pretty sure they'll listen.

SPEAKER_18

Why?

SPEAKER_14

Because they're a bunch of sheep.

SPEAKER_07

And what are you?

SPEAKER_14

I'm a captain.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, I thought it'd be another animal. Well, I suppose I should call my team leader and ask what they want. Would you guys like to wait somewhere else to give me some privacy? Maybe walk down the block a little bit. She'll still be able to see me.

SPEAKER_14

She throws a card at the ground as she call us when you know when you finally make a decision. Uh Lolo. It was lovely meeting ya. Uh you know. We'll talk, we'll talk soon. If not, I'll see you as soon as he shoots your finger gun. Uh as they leave.

SPEAKER_07

I'm gonna leave the card on the ground and walk away a little bit. Just so that if either of them looks back, it's not like I immediately bent down to grab it.

SPEAKER_11

They're not looking back.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

I don't just smell people when I meet them.

SPEAKER_07

Just You were sniffing the air, and that's how you knew he was there.

SPEAKER_14

I just He smells Hmm.

SPEAKER_07

Like violence?

SPEAKER_14

Yes.

SPEAKER_07

And does it smell less like violence? Like are they are they gone or are they hidden?

SPEAKER_11

They're gone.

SPEAKER_07

Great. Can you pick up the card? I'm gonna make a group call, I guess.

SPEAKER_14

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_11

I will He goes over.

SPEAKER_07

I'm off to the side and sit down.

unknown

Cool.

SPEAKER_07

And text in the group chat. Team meeting, five minutes, get somewhere, safe, text me when you're ready.

SPEAKER_14

No response from Lena. Tominaga immediately sends, yep, I'm all good. I'm all set now. Uh no response from Simon. Uh Tojuro sends. Uh no, Tojuro doesn't respond either. Five minutes goes by, you get a call from Tom and Naga.

SPEAKER_07

No, I call everyone.

SPEAKER_14

Sure. Only Tom and Aga answers.

SPEAKER_05

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

Let's see. What's happening? How are you doing? How's the uh how's the thing go as you hear things like breaking in the back as he put that down!

SPEAKER_15

You have to put that down! Did you let it down? That's a knife, you can't have that in your mouth. Sorry. You let him out of the cage. Is there a problem?

SPEAKER_07

You let him out of the cage.

SPEAKER_14

I uh didn't let anything out of anything.

SPEAKER_15

Uh one second. No, no, you can't do that. You gotta put it down. You gotta shut the phone birth street! Put him on the phone!

SPEAKER_17

Put him on the phone!

SPEAKER_14

Uh he definitely can't hear you. He's run around as he comes back and say- Is this important?

SPEAKER_07

Put the put the black Pokemon X on the phone right now!

SPEAKER_13

I can't do that.

SPEAKER_07

Why?

SPEAKER_13

Well, he's in the bathroom.

SPEAKER_07

I don't care.

SPEAKER_13

Okay. Uh well black. The problem is he's locked in the bathroom.

SPEAKER_07

Can you put my tsapatama on speakerphone and put it by the door?

SPEAKER_14

That bathroom is a hundred percent soundproof. How would you why would uh Simon said that it's better to shit in peace?

SPEAKER_15

We used to be a club.

SPEAKER_14

This this whole vicinity used to be a club, so the bathrooms, because they used to have raves here.

SPEAKER_15

Can I I might have to go. Is the important thing important? What do we need?

SPEAKER_07

Okay, fine. Since you were the only one who showed up, since nobody can be bothered to do anything, Kiomori wants to work together to take down the guy, and I'm pretty sure Tojiro will hate that. And yeah. Yeah. So I wanted to have a team meeting to be like, what the fuck did she do? And what do you want us to do, Lena? Because you're in charge, and I should not be the one making these choices.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, I don't know where Lena is at the moment.

SPEAKER_02

Um She's probably dropping up.

SPEAKER_14

Maybe just pay pool. Give me a second. Since they're for a second, see. To Juro's between uh 31st Street and 2nd. He's heading towards the red light district at the moment.

SPEAKER_02

And Simon.

SPEAKER_14

I have no idea where Simon is. I can track I can track Tojiro. He that's we have find my friend apps. But uh yeah, Simon Simon does whatever Simon does.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, cool. I got through the conversation. I got her to leave.

SPEAKER_16

Okay.

SPEAKER_07

If we are too slow or we don't do what she wants, she's going to try to take our bounty too.

SPEAKER_14

That's bad.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

She's really good at taking bounties. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Okay.

SPEAKER_05

Start walking towards the stupid coffee shop.

SPEAKER_12

Sure.

SPEAKER_07

If you hear from Simon Erline, you tell them that she contacted me and I still don't know what happened because none of you guys trust me enough to tell me what's going on and treat me like I'm part of the team. And I hang up.

SPEAKER_14

Whoa! You hang up.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Uh, he's trying to call you back.

SPEAKER_10

I let it ring for like 30 seconds and give it a good glare, but I will answer.

SPEAKER_13

Yo! What was that? Don't you don't hang up after saying that?

SPEAKER_17

Why do I talk to her before I even know what happened? Because you guys don't trust me.

SPEAKER_15

Why would we tell you? What the where is this coming from? Why would we tell you about Kyo?

SPEAKER_07

Because this is part of the team drama that's going to blow up in my face if I'm part of the team, and now it is blowing up in my face, and I don't even know how bad she is, because no one's told me anything except she was real mean. And you can't feel bad for Tojiro or Tomanaga, but no, I won't tell you why.

SPEAKER_15

Do you have a bunch of friends? No. Cool. Cool. Why don't you have a bunch of friends? Did you have friends in high school?

SPEAKER_07

Um I mean there were like people.

SPEAKER_15

Where are they at right now?

SPEAKER_02

I don't know. I think they just go.

SPEAKER_15

We didn't think that this would happen.

SPEAKER_13

We thought Keho was done with us. We haven't interacted with her for about a year now.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, nobody's done. Well, a couple of months. She left. It could have been yesterday. Well, like the day before. Okay.

SPEAKER_14

But uh, but we haven't interacted with her. We didn't think this was important.

SPEAKER_15

So don't get angry at us for being used and sticking up for myself this time.

SPEAKER_17

I'm so proud!

SPEAKER_15

I am stressed, but I am so proud of you. You don't get to yell at me. You don't you don't get to yell at me for being me. I am I am dealing with a lot of my the blue not come out of this bathroom.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, I'm sorry. Alright, I'm upset at her. I'm not upset at you guys, although I still do wish I was on the same page as you guys, so that like The page isn't anything spectacular. But does it say like cool fuck yourself? Join And that's what I say to her?

SPEAKER_14

No, she joined a whole other team. She left us, so Juro's not happy with her, Simon's not happy with her. Um Lena's not happy with her because she just out of the blue left.

SPEAKER_03

That's it.

SPEAKER_14

We were we were good friends and she just left. Which really fucked up the whole situation for our cleaner team. Cause as I said on the phone when I hired you, we needed another person, or else we were gonna be relegated to not uh to underneath, which means they can disband us.

SPEAKER_07

Right, I know. Okay. Um was she one of the other things?

SPEAKER_14

She started this. Tia was one of the few people in this group with a rating enough that they were able to essentially have a group even if four of us left.

SPEAKER_07

Oh wow.

SPEAKER_12

Maybe not four.

SPEAKER_07

She's one. Sorry. So Lena was in the first three as well. Who else? Who's the other of the initial three?

SPEAKER_14

Simon and Lena.

SPEAKER_07

Simon. And then when did you and Tojiro join? I'm walking together. Later.

SPEAKER_14

We join later.

SPEAKER_16

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

As another person gets on the call as you see Tojiro uh go on FaceTime and see how the fuck do you work this thing? As he's sitting at a cafe, see fucking what button.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, you made it to the cafe with this over!

SPEAKER_14

Staring at it. Yeah, he's just talking. Uh he's muted.

SPEAKER_07

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

He somehow muted himself.

SPEAKER_07

Wait, do you see the little microphone icon? You need to push that again so we can hear you. And the one that looks like a video camera, you might want to push that we can't see you.

SPEAKER_14

He puts a filter on. Uh as there's cat ears on him as he Shut screens. He presses another button.

SPEAKER_13

Uh it mutes the lot of you to him.

SPEAKER_16

Okay.

SPEAKER_13

He's still talking. As he presses the button, you tell him and see. Hello?

SPEAKER_03

Hey. Are you there? Yes.

SPEAKER_14

Hello? Hello. Is anybody talking? Oh my gosh. Fucking what is this thing? I Flame Wizmon, do you know how to work a Sapatama? Nah. I'm pretty sure I came out of that thing. I don't know how to work it.

SPEAKER_09

I will turn on FaceTime as well so we can at least see that someone is talking and know that he's got us muted. I can't help him on mute, but he can at least see.

SPEAKER_14

It looks like she's speaking. I don't think she knows we're here, though.

SPEAKER_03

He's not there.

SPEAKER_14

What should I do? Maybe you should throw this up at me into a wall. Good plan. He throws it at a wall.

SPEAKER_09

You know, you you're the one who fixes the tech stuff, right, Tomanaka?

SPEAKER_14

Uh, no, kinda, sorta.

SPEAKER_09

Oh, are you the software guy?

SPEAKER_14

I'm the software assignments more than the hardware. Yeah, yeah, that's yes.

SPEAKER_08

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

And you see, uh it has muted itself on Tojiro's side, but you see the video right now is he is yelling at the coffee shop owner as they are fighting? Because he just threw something at a dude's wall.

SPEAKER_07

How far am I from the coffee shop?

SPEAKER_14

Probably like five minutes, ten minutes down the road.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, hi, I'm gonna just kick into a nice jog. See if I can't get there in like two, you know. It's fine. This is all we got. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_16

Uh oh.

SPEAKER_07

Um, so last question, which why does Lena say that I'm not allowed to be sorry for you or Tojiro? Is it related to the Kyo stuff or is it something else? If it's something else, we could totally jump. It's not important. But if it's related to Kyoto.

SPEAKER_14

I don't think I I don't think I should um talk about uh Toes. Uh it's mostly stuff.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, that's um mostly him thing. Okay. Is it related to her? That's it. Just yes, no.

SPEAKER_14

No, it's not related to Dina.

SPEAKER_02

No, not Lena. Keo.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, Keo. No, no, Keo.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, okay. Cool.

SPEAKER_14

So after everything happened, Keo took us in, but that's about it.

SPEAKER_07

That's fine. That's fine.

SPEAKER_14

I just needed to know, like, this is nothing you get a message as uh you see Tojiro walking down the street in the video. He has left the cafe. Uh, you have gotten a message saying, don't know how this stupid video thing works, but uh since hopefully messages still do, I'm going to McDonald's.

SPEAKER_07

I'm gonna I will text him back and say, Do you see a headphone icon?

SPEAKER_14

Uh he texts back, the fuck is an icon.

SPEAKER_07

Oh my text back, I can't put no, no, I'm gonna delete. I'm gonna delete. You see the dots?

SPEAKER_14

It's funny because he was a smart dude in school.

SPEAKER_10

But I'm typing!

SPEAKER_08

I can't believe you're the one who installed the apps and stuff on my phone. I don't send it, I delete that, but just so you know. Okay, that's fine.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, cool. Um, so so the Kyoto thing really, really is just she left the team, blindsided all of you. That's it. She wasn't dating anybody, she didn't steal money, she didn't do any other complicated stuff I should know.

SPEAKER_16

Just No.

SPEAKER_07

Okay. Everybody's so cryptic about so many issues at once that I'm tying stuff together that's not meant to be tied. And she's like like wiping her rubbing her forehead oh.

SPEAKER_14

I didn't think that it was that big a deal.

SPEAKER_07

I just didn't expect to run into her, and then I did, and I'm just like I don't know what to do.

SPEAKER_18

Okay, cool.

SPEAKER_07

Well, um so, alright, alright, one thing at a time. Remind Black Tokemon X that if he does not behave, he does not get a snack today. This was a deal that we made.

SPEAKER_14

Alright, uh, let's pick back up. You are heading to the city.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, I'm still on the phone with Tojiro and Tomanaga, and he got kicked out of this place. Or is this McDonald's?

SPEAKER_14

Not this place.

SPEAKER_07

This is McDonald's.

SPEAKER_14

This is It's not McDonald's, he got kicked out of McDonald's. You saw that on the theme.

SPEAKER_07

No, he got kicked out of the coffee shop.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, you got kicked out of McDonald's too. I just didn't mention it.

SPEAKER_07

Um okay. Well, I'm assuming that as I stay on the phone with Tom and Aga, he's able to tell me where Tojiro is.

SPEAKER_14

Exactly.

SPEAKER_09

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

You are led to a small diner. Um as you arrive, you can see Tojiro and Flame Wizmon here. Uh they are trying to like fix the Sapatama, but don't know what they're doing. Well, I will as he looks up as he, yo, what's happening?

SPEAKER_07

Oh, a lot.

SPEAKER_08

Um is your supper tama, okay?

SPEAKER_14

It is cracked and like looks pretty shitty, but he's like, yeah, it's fun.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_14

You presume from how bad it looks, the one impact with the wall wouldn't have done that. They've done this before.

SPEAKER_07

Okay. Uh, you We can probably hang up.

SPEAKER_14

This is a man who uses the phone.

SPEAKER_07

We could probably hang up the drip cole.

SPEAKER_14

How do I do that?

SPEAKER_07

Can I see it for a second?

SPEAKER_10

Uh, you're gonna install an app like I did on your I'm gonna submit an application to put you on a different team. That's correct.

SPEAKER_14

Motherfucker! I'll beat the shit out of you.

SPEAKER_08

Sorry.

SPEAKER_14

Who's this?

SPEAKER_08

Swissby. You saw this form before.

SPEAKER_14

Oh. I was pretty out of it at that point.

SPEAKER_07

I know. You want me to hang up the call?

SPEAKER_14

Mm-hmm. He hands you the sapatama.

SPEAKER_04

I'll hang it up and put it right back down.

SPEAKER_14

Cool. He puts it just in each pocket. This is a man that literally is like walked around with no phone case on, and then when it drops and cracks, he's like, oh well, and just keeps going.

SPEAKER_07

SPEAKER_14

Ah, it's Lena. I answer put it like as you say Lena in a video called as she Oh What's up? I just got out of the car. Hey I wasn't gonna answer because that would have ended up killing somebody.

Her team is trying to see a tiger are what yeah I know, I was trying to have a Um And one of the guys from her little tactics squad or whatever, and uh they want some other bounty in the same building, I think, and wanted me to be like, yes! Please break into the building for us. We need your help so bad. And then we just waltz in and we only take Sleeker and they take whatever else they want. I'm pretty sure she does not like me now, which is fine. But um Since you are the team leader, should I call her back and say yes to that roll of things?

SPEAKER_01

Oh Lena.

SPEAKER_14

All right, the charm the fucking dice aren't working.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. We gotta manually so five.

SPEAKER_14

SPEAKER_02

Why? Why?

SPEAKER_14

Because I told you to that's why, as she hangs up the phone. Tojiro sits there leaning back in the seat a bit as he man, what a rough day.

SPEAKER_07

Shelby is just like tense, like bracing against the table. Because it's like I called to ask what she wanted, but I really didn't think she'd want this.

SPEAKER_14

Tajura just don't take it personally. She's Lena's got a lot of uh she's fine shit going on.

SPEAKER_07

She's fine. That's not the problem.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

The problem is she actually said yes, which means now I have to see the pirate cosplayer again.

SPEAKER_14

Don't fucking don't get upper because she wears that hat. You don't know the deal behind it.

SPEAKER_07

I don't know the deal behind anything. I just know she hurt all of you. And so I hate her. No.

You don't get that.

SPEAKER_07

Get to tell me what I care about and what I don't.

SPEAKER_14

I No, you're allowed to care, but you're not allowed to make other people care. What's the problem?

SPEAKER_09

What do you mean make other people care? What?

SPEAKER_14

Or well, you're not allowed to make people care differently, is the thing. I'm uh I'm in a very insightful mood today. Flame Winsmond beat. Good job. Good job, Flame. I know I'm really good at this. I'm great at beatboxing. Uh as Tojiro just alright. Yeah, yeah. Tojuro. Tojuro Hanma. Uh, uh you can only feel what you feel when you feel and what you nothing but what is real. Do you deal? That is how it feels. Anyway you anyway in the real, that is cool, that is chill, that is nothing but still. Yeah. Solid. God damn, that was amazing. I know I'm pretty awesome. But do you understand what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_07

Um Today is a wild day.

SPEAKER_14

But it's a day that we gotta we take today just like any other day.

SPEAKER_08

SPEAKER_14

No, no, I've been Yeah, I picked it up recently. I'm I'm really good.

SPEAKER_09

Okay. Sorry, just the idea of you coming home from school and then rapping about how much we suck. It's really adorable. I'm sorry, okay, it's fine.

SPEAKER_14

I I do have a rap about how much you guys suck.

SPEAKER_17

Later.

SPEAKER_14

That is a thing.

SPEAKER_07

Maybe um yeah, no, I'm not I'm not trying to make anybody else. Okay. Alright, the part the part that matters. If I call her and say yes, and she and that other guy. Acts friendly. Feels creepy. Run into us. Are we gonna end up fighting them? Like, I'm not asking you to predict what I'm gonna do. I'm will you will you end up fighting them if they're there?

SPEAKER_14

Um I don't know. Honestly, this whole situation is really difficult to predict.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. She definitely wants to collect our bounty as well, but I think somebody that she listens to at least doesn't want that to happen. I guess it's my decision to respect the team hierarchy, so I should just call her.

SPEAKER_18

Tell her to unlock the door.

SPEAKER_14

Alternatively, you cannot do that.

SPEAKER_07

Lena said to do it.

SPEAKER_14

Fuck Lena.

SPEAKER_07

I went out of my way to ask her what she thought.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah. And now I'm uh now I'm sitting here across from you going, fuck Lena. I didn't vote her in.

SPEAKER_10

Technically.

SPEAKER_14

He specifically did. He did. They all did.

SPEAKER_07

You said I don't care, but sit counted as an I. They counted you.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, there's no proof. I was You wanna know one thing that lamp ladders do better than anyone?

unknown

Sure.

SPEAKER_14

Our own fucking thing. I don't we don't need to take orders if we don't like the orders. We're all on the same page. We're all equals.

SPEAKER_09

So explain that to Lena.

SPEAKER_14

You can try. I'd be scared to.

SPEAKER_07

No, not me. I said, are you going to?

SPEAKER_14

No, I'm gonna let her figure out what I'm doing after the fact and deal with the consequences too.

SPEAKER_04

Forgiveness is easier than permission. Okay, uh.

SPEAKER_09

Leo. I wanna roll something to try to decide if this is a good idea.

SPEAKER_07

What the consequences might be, because my natural bent would be to not interact with those people. So he's saying what I want to hear. Uh grit? Brains?

SPEAKER_14

Uh give me a charm.

SPEAKER_07

Chu. Okay. Not 20. 26.

SPEAKER_14

Not 20. That explodes.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, right, it does. Um, so let's just roll another 20 and add it.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

That's pretty good. Uh, 42.

SPEAKER_14

42. Cool. Use it there as you're like. The consequences from Lena.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Well probably being Lena's like, you're probably gonna end up doing exercise. But at the same time, from how Lena sounded, the dejection of the thing there, you think she didn't want this? This is probably something that taking charge, like Tojiro putting the idea out, you could do. And it is definitely a doable but uh thing. Would it you don't think that the consequences will be that bad, comparably?

SPEAKER_18

Alright.

SPEAKER_07

Well. We could just do exactly what she said she was gonna do. Break into the place, just take our target and move on. Maybe.

SPEAKER_11

Fuck that.

SPEAKER_10

Your second vote for take everything and leave her crying on the doorstep.

SPEAKER_01

If we're gonna be breaking in, why don't we just do whatever we want?

SPEAKER_07

Okay. Last time we weren't only expecting to be a team and we didn't start the fight at the same time, but this time's gotta be better. Maybe surely. Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Okay. Unless you fuck something up.

SPEAKER_07

Oh me. Yeah, it's only on me. Okay. I will.

SPEAKER_14

Why would it be on me? I was perfect. Did exactly what I normally do. I fought a pneumamon, did you?

SPEAKER_07

I mean, we fought two pneumamons, but we can see you.

SPEAKER_14

Now no, we is a general situation here.

SPEAKER_10

We I'm pointing at wispies.

SPEAKER_14

This fella definitely fought some pneumamon. What did you do?

SPEAKER_07

Oh. Oh. That I see. Yeah, the part where you just run up and punch things.

SPEAKER_14

That's right. It's the only way to solve an issue.

SPEAKER_07

Hmm. I have thoughts on that. I'm not gonna get into them now. You can ask later if you remember. But uh, it's not important. Punching in the butcher shop name.

unknown

Right.

SPEAKER_07

My map.

SPEAKER_11

So where are we going?

SPEAKER_04

Does the dates actually show up?

SPEAKER_14

Closed.

SPEAKER_04

But it shows up.

SPEAKER_14

Uh yeah, it's not a butcher shop, it's a factory. It's an old school like uh shipping freight uh factory for uh butchers.

SPEAKER_07

And it's in the correct district and everything.

SPEAKER_14

It's in the red light district.

SPEAKER_07

Well we're starting here and showing the guy who gave Lena this place, huh?

SPEAKER_14

Pretty close.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. Well that's good. Then we don't have to get your motorcycle, and I don't have to walk anymore.

SPEAKER_14

Um my motorcycle.

SPEAKER_09

I can hear the helmets in the engine.

SPEAKER_14

Oh.

unknown

Oh.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, don't worry about it.

SPEAKER_07

It's okay.

SPEAKER_14

My husband looks at him as he, yes. Oh no, you figured out that we have a motorcycle.

SPEAKER_07

Right, and there's four of us, so it's fine.

SPEAKER_04

I was scared and get off.

SPEAKER_14

So That's right, we definitely couldn't fit on your motorcycle.

SPEAKER_07

Right. So the guy who gave us this location um was absolutely terrified of Lena. And I I think it's probably accurate, but we'll see. Um once we get closer, I'll be able to see.

SPEAKER_14

I'm almost tempted to ask why he was terrified of Lena.

SPEAKER_07

Oh! Uh, because he said he was gonna burn down the bar, and so then we beat him up, and she just turned him into the Soul Protection Office.

unknown

Oh.

SPEAKER_07

Did she know you that Agumans can have hair and swords and stuff?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, Bushy Agumon. Yeah! Did you run into uh frickin' uh Kame?

SPEAKER_07

Yes.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah. It was time.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, you've had the uh misfortune of meeting him.

SPEAKER_14

Yes, well he um Yeah, he was at uh Lena's last um uh Michael Last World Strongest Man competition. Oh World Strongest competition.

SPEAKER_07

Well then I bet he had a great date.

SPEAKER_14

She made she made him let her into the men's one. It was hilarious.

SPEAKER_12

She yelled at him for like 20 minutes.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, well, um we beat him up, and while he was unconscious, he got tied to the front of her car, and then she drove to the city with him at 120 miles an hour, and then he told us where it was to try to barter for his life. So, just that.

SPEAKER_14

Will they have any idea that we're coming?

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, he unfortunately got to call ahead and say that the pneumon had been found by some cleaners they needed to escalate. So I don't know for sure what we're walking into. I probably should have asked the um I probably should have asked the gun merchant what his operation was like. Oh the new gun that lives the trip. Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Right. Right. Yeah, you said something about that.

SPEAKER_07

I'm not good at this. This is my first one, so I will only get better, hopefully. Um yeah. So we're going there. And I'm pretty sure you have to abuse Digimon to get a bunch of new monsters. So if things are bad, I am probably not gonna handle it well, but we'll it's fine. It's fine. Figure it out. Is there anything else I need to tell you? I don't think so.

SPEAKER_14

You good to start walking or yeah, let's let's do it. He gets up as he as you two head out, walking towards the uh this factory on the outskirts of the red light.

SPEAKER_07

Um as we approach her, there are gigantic red lights on the opposite building.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, you would see as you come up a massive across the street, a massive like neon sign that isn't lit up at the moment, uh, that is for Briarwood factory mates.

SPEAKER_07

Okay. And it's red.

SPEAKER_14

Uh you're not sure. It's a neon sign, but it's turned off. Like the lights are off.

SPEAKER_18

Oh. What time is it?

SPEAKER_14

Uh it's coming into the night now. Use were like waiting till the afternoon for Tojiro to be done.

SPEAKER_04

Um I guess we didn't actually eat or anything, but like the more time we spend, the more time tactics team is, so I feel like we should just go take an eat after.

SPEAKER_07

So yeah, I guess early evening.

SPEAKER_12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Well, if that sign lights up red, which I'm hoping it does, then Sleeker's supposed to be on the second floor in this building. Directly looking out to the street. Or at least that's the room the new Momon knows.

SPEAKER_14

Uh as you come up to this place, you would see outside. There are guards here. As one of the guards walks over as he uh How close did we get? Uh, not far away. Like when I say there's guards, you'd see it's not very um like after a while you would have to get close enough to the building to like take a look. As soon as you're close enough to the entrance, this guy in a big black suit with glasses on, he looks more like a bouncer than a guard, or like a security guard. Walks over to you and say, What a oh what's going on over here?

SPEAKER_07

This is why I wanted to talk to Dojiro before we got up to the Dojiro's just looking at this dude. Well, I know he is, but we can't talk now.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah. You probably wouldn't have expected. It's a factory district. This dude shouldn't be here.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

New handle on up.

SPEAKER_07

I gotta ask a little more questions before we do anything. Do they have Digimon? Do they have guns? Are they just dudes? So like scrap the guns.

SPEAKER_14

He looks like a big dude in a suit. Like, he's bulky, but he is just a full-on, like guy. He also isn't reacting to Tojiro uh Noxmon or uh Flame Wizmon.

SPEAKER_16

Huh?

SPEAKER_14

Okay, you hear uh you're here to line up. Is that what you're doing? Because you're standing in the wrong area. Yeah, early, but fucking that's fine. Unless you're here for a delivery or something.

SPEAKER_04

He's just not gonna say anything. He's gonna leave this to me, isn't he?

SPEAKER_14

The jury's confused. So would I. Like, do I like punch him?

SPEAKER_07

Okay, um. Brains are grit to try to like piece together as much as I can. They're the same role, so you can figure out which one you want. It's a natural one.

SPEAKER_14

You have no idea what's happening right now.

SPEAKER_16

Alright.

SPEAKER_07

Um, so the options are lineup. I don't know what that means, or delivery. How many yards can I see?

SPEAKER_14

It just looks like this one guy here at the moment.

SPEAKER_07

There's just one. We didn't want to be late, so we just showed up a bit early, but we're not sure where we're supposed to go.

SPEAKER_11

Oh. Well, it's all good.

SPEAKER_14

Um you got tickets?

SPEAKER_04

You have the tickets, right?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, I've got the tickets. Can I see the tickets? I don't have tickets. Fuck men. Fuck man, alright. Look. That's so as he sits there and say, one second, I'm just gonna roll the thing for Dojiro as he looks at this guy.

SPEAKER_09

Sure. I was expecting to be like, yeah, I got the tickets. Punch! Like, well, that's our that's our ticket now.

SPEAKER_14

Hey, can I talk to you over here real quickly? Behind this garbage bin, as the guy No. No, I'm not going behind a bin with you, Matt. You'll see. Fuck.

SPEAKER_06

It's there. I look around and say, I don't have tickets.

SPEAKER_14

Can I buy tickets? Yeah, look, it's fun. It's fine. You guys are here pretty early. We want more people, and uh girls are always welcome in. So, how about you slip me 40 bucks right now and I'll let you in early?

SPEAKER_07

I'll give him 40 bucks.

SPEAKER_14

Alright. Hand him 40 bucks as he sits as he. Alright, come with me. 40 bucks each.

SPEAKER_04

I'll give him another 40 bucks.

SPEAKER_14

Uh, what's your resource level at the moment?

SPEAKER_07

One, so I have multiple hundred dollars in the bank, but I'm not at thousands yet.

SPEAKER_14

Uh isn't uh Isn't resources one is couple of hundreds in the like.

SPEAKER_07

That's what I just said. Yes.

SPEAKER_14

I should be impacted then.

SPEAKER_07

Um can't keep taking a whole box away every time I spend a portion.

SPEAKER_14

You're not gonna take a box away.

SPEAKER_07

Uh because I don't even know that I should be down to one because I had a few thousand and I only spent a couple hundred and you bumped me clear down to one.

SPEAKER_14

Why'd you spend a couple of hundred on?

SPEAKER_07

I gave it to um so that he could survive without his phone for a day.

SPEAKER_14

Well, that shouldn't never cost you a resource.

SPEAKER_06

But you said it did, so I clicked it off.

SPEAKER_13

Yeah, probably because I thought you had like one resource. I thought that you've been running off one resource.

SPEAKER_06

I was at one, I got paid, so I was at two.

SPEAKER_13

Okay.

SPEAKER_06

So am I actually at two?

unknown

Cool.

SPEAKER_13

Uh you would actually- I just got paid yesterday, and I got paid for the ogre man job.

SPEAKER_00

Mm-hmm. Yeah, you would be at two.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_07

Uh, I don't know what the Do I need to just have a sheet where I track my finances?

SPEAKER_14

No, no, no. It should this should be simple. This should be very easy. So, with two pips, I'm actually wrong. Uh, he's gonna charge you a couple of hundred each. Uh, it would be 120 each, but you can definitely pay that. It's not impactful, it doesn't take a pip, but it is like someone giving up $120 for nothing. Like, yeah. I don't have money.

SPEAKER_18

I know.

SPEAKER_14

How the fuck do you know?

SPEAKER_18

Don't worry.

SPEAKER_14

What's that mean?

SPEAKER_18

You have to do this in front of the guy.

SPEAKER_14

Oh man.

SPEAKER_13

Well, I wanna know what you fucking mean. You starting stuffing?

SPEAKER_15

No.

SPEAKER_14

Mate, maybe you should like calm down. Your girlfriend here says that she's gonna Fuck you, man!

SPEAKER_13

You don't get to this? You stay out of it.

SPEAKER_07

Is there like I turn back to the guy, is there like a a private room where we could just sort this out before things start so that look, I can probably get you VIP tickets.

SPEAKER_18

Really?

SPEAKER_14

Uh but we're talking a bit more than 200 here. Let's see. You slip me a good let's say slip me one five and I'll get you into the back.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, I don't have that much money. Um I just wanted to have the argument like not disrupting the other guests.

SPEAKER_14

Have it over there in the alley. Also, there are no other guests right now. You guys rocked.

SPEAKER_07

Fair enough. Never mind. Just let us in. We'll talk quietly in the corner and be done before the next people show up.

SPEAKER_14

Whatever then. Alright. Walks over a seat. Basic rules, pulls out a stamp as he stamps both your hands.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Uh, you go in and come out. Make sure people see your stamp. Uh if you get drunk, you can be removed from the premises.

SPEAKER_16

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

We do not take any acknowledgement of if you fucking do anything here that is problematic, that's on you.

SPEAKER_16

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

We'll throw you out in an instant. Alright. Uh, your Digimon, uh, they're good, right?

SPEAKER_03

Yep.

SPEAKER_14

Cool. They start causing a problem, they're fucking gone too.

SPEAKER_16

Yep.

SPEAKER_14

Uh. In fact, I need another I need an additional 80 for the tour.

SPEAKER_07

I wanna roll Grit and see if this is a real rule or if he just thinks if he keeps saying I need money, then I'm gonna keep giving him money.

SPEAKER_14

What? No, no, 100%.

SPEAKER_09

14.

SPEAKER_14

He's overcharging you, but you think that that there might be a reason for that? He is like treating it like, oh, your Digimon aren't worth a ticket, but I'm still gonna take money from you for them.

SPEAKER_07

So this is more of like kids come in half price thing.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, something like that.

SPEAKER_07

Then like there normally isn't a charge, and he's just made this uh like he he probably would charge other people.

SPEAKER_14

There's definitely a charge. You can tell there's he's not like swindling you for everything. This definitely costs money.

SPEAKER_07

Okay. So I'm at a hundred I did 120 each.

SPEAKER_14

120 each, 240, plus uh plus eighty each.

SPEAKER_18

80 would be each. Okay.

SPEAKER_14

So you're looking at 400? How much are you earning from this uh thing?

SPEAKER_07

From this job?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

My share was 660. I don't know what I was getting from Hame, we haven't found out.

SPEAKER_11

Yep.

SPEAKER_07

There's no way I could convince you to just drop them the 55 each. Just call it good at 350 total.

SPEAKER_14

You want in here, right?

SPEAKER_16

Hmm.

SPEAKER_14

I'm doing you a favor, this thing's been sold out for weeks.

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_12

Who's gonna know?

SPEAKER_03

Who's gonna know if you have you take an extra like 25 off?

SPEAKER_14

I'll know because that's my money that I'm losing out on.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, how much how much of the 80 does your boss actually get? I'm not gonna ask about the 120s. I assume there's a margin on that. How much of the 80 does your boss?

SPEAKER_11

My boss ain't getting nothing.

SPEAKER_07

Nothing.

SPEAKER_11

No, he doesn't know about it.

Oh right, we're here on a mission.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, this is not a date, I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_14

I thought maybe you fucking I didn't ask you on a date, gross.

SPEAKER_07

No, I mean I paid for everything 100% than the other one.

SPEAKER_11

Sorry. I see.

SPEAKER_09

The guy at the door completely thinks I'm your sugar mama, okay?

SPEAKER_14

Well, I have to inform you.

SPEAKER_09

What?

SPEAKER_14

You might have bought me vex tickets, but I don't fucking put out on the first day, so good luck.

SPEAKER_11

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

It's close. I'm almost I'm almost tempted just for the Vex tickets. Wow, no.

SPEAKER_07

Uh wow, that's not. Okay. I was expecting you to say like I I hate to tell you, but I'm in love with Tomanaga or something.

SPEAKER_11

Bro, what the fuck?

SPEAKER_17

That's my boy.

SPEAKER_06

I know.

SPEAKER_15

Guys are really comfortable together and you use nicknames and stuff and No, because we we're friends. You just I'm not fuck. You just led with Christ.

SPEAKER_17

You led with a hate document.

SPEAKER_13

That's not cool. That's not cool. Uh Tom.

SPEAKER_14

Tommy's a good friend. That's fine.

SPEAKER_15

You can say shit like that's kind of the misunderstanding. Get your get your human in line. Get him in line, or I'll put you in line.

SPEAKER_14

I think we all need to just calm down right now. Uh or else I will unleash extreme violence upon you, Flaming.

SPEAKER_07

No, we are not gonna do that. We, you and me at least have a job. And we're going to do it so we can get back to Black Togemon X before he destroys everything. Okay, right, anyway, so as clearly established for multiple reasons. This is not a date. Everything is fine. And since I'm not gonna be able to pretend that I want to be at this place that I stumbled into, you have to- Why wouldn't you want to be here? I didn't know Sky existed.

SPEAKER_14

You don't know Vex?

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_14

God, are you living under a rock, Shelby?

SPEAKER_07

No, I'm living in a sad little apartment full of plants.

SPEAKER_14

That's somehow worse. Somehow I feel worse for you.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, that's fine. Okay.

SPEAKER_14

She smells of loneliness.

SPEAKER_07

Thank you for sharing that box, mod.

SPEAKER_14

Uh, you're welcome. I thought he should know.

SPEAKER_10

Okay, well, I guess it's fair. I know what he smells like, so it's fine.

SPEAKER_14

Um do I smell like? Is it her uh. Are you saying that I smell? No. I fucking I use shampoo and conditioner. Yes, it's an all-in-one, but I use it.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, that's definitely something I'm not gonna tell you until after you. I hope you do get to jo enjoy the concert, and whatever we have to do doesn't interfere with it. But I have to go to the second floor of this building.

SPEAKER_14

Alright.

SPEAKER_16

Look.

SPEAKER_14

I'm gonna go look around for clues by the stage and stuff.

SPEAKER_09

Shut up! I'll call you if I run into any problems.

SPEAKER_14

Cool.

SPEAKER_07

Oh wow, okay, you really threw me off. Um so I'm going to uh wander around a little bit. Um first I'm going to keep an eye out for a bathroom. I know that's very exciting, but you still need to know where these things are. You dropped out a room.

SPEAKER_14

Uh it seems like when it comes to bathrooms, they are upstairs.

SPEAKER_04

Excellent.

SPEAKER_14

Which is through the door over here, up these stairs.

SPEAKER_04

Wait, I'm gonna go up and change them.

SPEAKER_14

Sure. Head upstairs. Uh there are a bunch of people upstairs, essentially, like staff and that. They've cordoned off areas sort of leading you to the bathrooms. Uh, that's about it. There's a few offices up here, but they seem all shut up.

SPEAKER_07

The bathroom's like right at the top of the steps, or do you have to walk through a bit to get to them?

SPEAKER_14

Gonna go up the steps and then around a bit.

SPEAKER_07

Alright, then I'll just kinda meander around slowly. I'm looking at everything, but I am ostensibly making my way to the bathroom.

SPEAKER_11

Yep. Do I observe anything? Hey. Oh, you. You don't work here, do you?

SPEAKER_14

They shouldn't be letting people in yet. As you see, uh this guy walk up to you.

SPEAKER_10

Uh just looking for a bathroom.

SPEAKER_00

Alright.

SPEAKER_07

Sorry, I didn't I talked a guy into letting me in early for that, then but then there aren't any on the first floor, so I just No, you're allowed to go to the bathroom, don't fucking worry about that.

SPEAKER_14

But um that you're a Digimon.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah? Any chance we could have this talk in like five minutes?

SPEAKER_14

Sure, I'll stand out here and bite.

SPEAKER_07

Thank you.

SPEAKER_14

Like a fucking weirdo.

SPEAKER_04

I will go in the bathroom.

SPEAKER_09

So there's this definitely a real reason I had to come up.

SPEAKER_16

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_07

You can't look over something like that and then just be like, oh, I've completely forgotten it's 45 minutes later. At least go in the bathroom, whatever. Come back out in a few minutes.

SPEAKER_14

Come back out. Boom. He's sitting down there saying Thank you.

SPEAKER_18

Sorry.

SPEAKER_14

You forgetting something?

SPEAKER_18

Huh?

SPEAKER_14

Your hands are bone dry.

SPEAKER_07

Why would you assume I didn't wash my hands for the charade, Leo? Because you didn't say it!

SPEAKER_10

Come on, man!

SPEAKER_14

Nah, it's fine. Uh Asen's there's a cult, so this is your Digimon?

SPEAKER_16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

It's pretty dope. He's a champion level. You ever thought about putting him into a fight? I have some pits that could use something like this.

SPEAKER_07

I guess I would have to hear a lot more about the setup, the situation.

SPEAKER_14

Pretty simple. We give you some money, we put uh we put your boy here into some fight pits. He goes uh goes through at the end of the night, champion gets uh a big bonus as well. Though he probably won't take down the current rain uh reigning champ, but he looks like he's got a little spunk in him. I think we could definitely use him. What do you say?

SPEAKER_07

I'm assuming because I'm used to Wispy communicating non-verbally, he is not just like excited by this possibility.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, he seems pretty like what are you doing back? A little bit, yeah. He's not saying anything because he doesn't know how you want to play it, but I'm just here to watch tonight. But if I like what I say, what you're afraid of making money?

SPEAKER_07

Is there a reason that I wouldn't wanna come back if I watch tonight?

SPEAKER_14

The fights are happening tonight. And never fucking in next week we won't be here.

SPEAKER_07

Oh. I see.

SPEAKER_14

You want you on in, you're in tonight.

SPEAKER_07

How long does it take to cycle back?

SPEAKER_14

You gotta fucking cycle back. We find out other ways, other places, other times, and I'm not inviting you to aunt.

SPEAKER_18

Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I get you.

SPEAKER_07

Um I have to run it past my boyfriend, but I'm just we're supposed to be watching Vex.

SPEAKER_14

You can watch Vex. It's fine. He let him watch Vex. You can come down uh and watch something more interesting. After all, I wouldn't From what we were from what I heard, you're not even interested in Vex.

SPEAKER_10

What did you hear?

SPEAKER_14

That you're not interested in Vex.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, just that. Okay. Sometimes you gotta pay attention to this. Okay.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_07

Um I'm still gonna go talk to him first. You gotta understand. If somebody disappears in a place like this once the crowd's in here, it could make people worry.

SPEAKER_14

I get it, but at the same time.

unknown

What?

SPEAKER_14

I'm sorry, but if he let a pretty lady like you walk off on your own, he obviously doesn't have uh any brains in his head.

SPEAKER_04

Why is that a threat?

SPEAKER_01

Why would I be threatening you? I'm hitting on you.

SPEAKER_07

What's the bad thing that's gonna happen if I'm off on my own?

SPEAKER_01

Maybe someone will scoop you up.

SPEAKER_07

That sounds like violence.

SPEAKER_14

I ain't talking violence. Plenty of other things that you can do besides violence.

SPEAKER_04

What?

SPEAKER_14

This is a moment of like I just love this moment of like uh this shit look am I going to

SPEAKER_07

Go talk to him. You don't have to like it.

SPEAKER_14

Definitely don't like him.

SPEAKER_07

Well, too bad.

SPEAKER_14

I much prefer. I much prefer we hang out.

SPEAKER_07

I get that. But I'm telling you what I'm going to do. And you're going to have to.

SPEAKER_14

Maybe I can have a talk with your boyfriend.

SPEAKER_07

I'm just gonna start walking. Huh?

SPEAKER_14

Have a good night.

SPEAKER_07

Come back down the stairs. He's still like fangirling.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah. Yeah, he's just at the stage just watching it all as he wow. Just awesome. Just awesome.

SPEAKER_06

Walk over. Hey.

SPEAKER_14

Hey, I'm there's no evil Digimon over here. Flame Whiz, what fucking what were you doing? I was I was watching the people move and stuff like you. Fucking you were supposed to cover for me, motherfucker.

SPEAKER_07

We have enough space that there's nobody you can hear us talk.

SPEAKER_14

Doesn't seem like it.

SPEAKER_07

Did that guy follow me down the stairs?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, he's walked over to the bar. He's watching you though.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. Okay. Um. If you can manage it, I need you to just at least pretend like you don't. Well, you tell you don't actually hate me, so that's fine. Okay. There's um there's a fighting ring? Did you and also there's a guy hitting on me. He wants to have a talk with you, but I think it's probably a fight.

SPEAKER_11

What the fuck does he want to talk to me?

SPEAKER_07

Because I played it.

SPEAKER_11

What do I do?

SPEAKER_07

I'm carrying on the uh I bought my boyfriend here to see the concert thing.

SPEAKER_02

They believe it, okay?

SPEAKER_01

What I'm saying. What do you want me to do?

SPEAKER_18

I don't know.

SPEAKER_07

I feel like the bad thing that happens to Digimon is probably Well, but can't it can't just be the fighting ring because they're moving the fighting ring. So it's not like they just battle down there until everybody just turns into slime monsters. But I'm not gonna get to see the second floor unattended. And I don't know what that guy is gonna do if I wander off alone again he's gonna do. I mean, he openly said he's hitting on me and wants to spend time together and thinks I should ditch you and stuff, but he doesn't see how it's um threatening and disrespectful to just decide that the person that you're talking to wants this attention. And I never had to deal with this. So, uh Okay, it's fine. I just expected that like I don't know, to just it'd be a simple thing, and there'd be like bad guys and to Digimon in cages and stuff, and we'd just be like, ah, we're the heroes, and I watch too many cartoons.

SPEAKER_14

I see. Yeah, you watch a lot of cartoons.

SPEAKER_07

I do. I didn't get to.

SPEAKER_14

Do you want me to go like beat this fucker up?

SPEAKER_18

Um is he? Set the bar.

SPEAKER_14

Okay. He starts walking over there and see, yo fuck nut! You are you hitting on my girlfriend? Let's see. Yeah, what is it? What's it to you, mo oh dickweed? Let's see. This fucking guy. This fucking guy, flame wisdom. You wanna fucking go or see? I'm happy to fucking go. I'll take you and your Digimon down fucking pound town. See, I'm gonna kill you, and I'm gonna spit on your corpse when I'm done. Uh, as they just like get right in each other's face, as you hear, gentlemen, as walking out, you would see the person you've seen before. You would see Sleeker. There is he. Uh, there'll be no violence up here. Uh, not yet. If you wish uh if you wish you have a Digimon, perhaps you should head down to the subcategory with my friend uh Julian here. Am I close enough that I can sort of know? Oh yeah. Yeah, you can. You've you hear it. He's being very like announcing, and there's no one else in the club. Is he? Perhaps you can sort your petty shit out down there. Does that sound good, Julian? Let's see. You got it, Sleeker. Oh, what about you, sir? Let's see. I don't give a fuck what you say, cunt. Oh, but you. I'm gonna beat the shit out of you. Let's go. Sleeker walks over and see, my my, what a rude fellow. Sorry about that, miss. Uh they let you in pretty early here.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Are you are you here to enjoy the the uh concert?

SPEAKER_07

I bought tickets for my boyfriend to see it, yeah. And he's so busy now.

SPEAKER_14

Um don't worry, they'll get back before the concert really swings in the gear. Uh how about you join myself and my partner for a drink?

SPEAKER_05

Why?

SPEAKER_14

Well, if we're gonna have if I'm gonna have my people yell at your boyfriend and uh take time out of your day and cause you a hassle, I feel like I owe you a plus I like interesting people and you seem interesting. Come, please, come to the VIP section.

SPEAKER_07

I watch it get made. I do not bite, and it never leaves my sight.

SPEAKER_14

What's that?

SPEAKER_07

The drink. I watch it get made and it never leaves my sight.

SPEAKER_14

SPEAKER_07

I'm gonna watch the bartender do it.

SPEAKER_14

SPEAKER_07

You just gotta be careful. Um you never know with people. It's not you personally.

SPEAKER_14

Sure. Sure. How about you grab a drink and you join us? Okay. We'll see heads down, walking into this room as you would see red light spilling in, as you realize that's the office. That's the room they describe.

SPEAKER_07

Okay. Alright. Um I'm so glad again that I didn't do shots earlier.

SPEAKER_14

Would have made this such a better session.

SPEAKER_17

Okay I don't know what you're trying to pop, Pump, but if you think you're trying to stop it, I'm gonna finish that beat you up My boyfriend can beat up your boyfriend.

SPEAKER_07

He clearly has one. Alright.

SPEAKER_11

For sure.

SPEAKER_07

Um I'm just gonna get a cocktail or something. Probably a sweeter one, but uh just they have plenty. Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

They take your drink ticket as they give you a free drink.

SPEAKER_07

They took my drink stick. He just said I got a free drink and announced your voice. That wasn't gonna give up my voucher. We could have three free drinks.

SPEAKER_14

Sure. That'll that'll cover the cost of the drink.

SPEAKER_09

As he just said, huh?

SPEAKER_07

Alright, then I'll carry my like pina colado or whatever VIP section, I guess.

SPEAKER_14

Cool. You enter in and should hear them. They have music on, they have a TV uh here for uh uh the stage. They're like they're planning on yeah, being in here just VIP experience. Let's see. Ah look nice to meet you. Uh Sleeker, our hero.

SPEAKER_12

And this lovely lady here. Uh, this is Loria Langhorn. My partner in crime.

SPEAKER_07

I see you. What type of crime?

SPEAKER_12

I'm partner in life.

SPEAKER_07

What type of crime?

SPEAKER_14

What type of crime?

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

You know that's uh that's a question that'll get you stabbed in certain places, I thought it was just like a like a fun saying.

SPEAKER_07

I didn't expect it to be actual crime.

SPEAKER_14

Please come take a seat.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. Sorry.

SPEAKER_12

It's oh, you know. We all have our vices, all have things that we do.

SPEAKER_07

I just thought it was gonna be like gambling or something, but that's my bad.

SPEAKER_14

We do what we do. But more than anything, I'm interested in you. That's a champion level Digimon.

SPEAKER_07

How does everyone know this just by looking? I haven't seen a single one of you scanning it.

SPEAKER_12

Let's just say I have.

SPEAKER_14

This place isn't just set up with nice little laser shells. Everything here's monitored.

SPEAKER_07

Monitored how? Like, do they have cameras in the bathroom?

SPEAKER_14

That would be gross and inefficient.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, good. So just the general sweat dripping off your brownies.

SPEAKER_14

Oh fuck. Thank fuck.

SPEAKER_07

Although, of course, also sweat dripping because uh if it's cameras, we're fine. If it's audio, I've had multiple conversations in this place.

SPEAKER_14

It's all stored on our system.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

Who knows? It's not about any of that. What we've really are looking for. You seem like you could use a f uh maybe you might be interested in earning a little bit of extra cash.

SPEAKER_07

Is this gonna be the join the fighting ring pitch because Julian mixed that in with the hitting on me?

SPEAKER_14

Jul that's Julian's pride and jewel. That's nothing to do with me. Okay. No, I have I have much bigger ambitions. I have a job that I might be interested in someone helping me out with, and I think you would be perfect for that.

SPEAKER_12

What makes sense but powerful?

SPEAKER_07

Ah. Okay. The kind of person people overlook.

SPEAKER_12

That's right. What's and you don't even have to do much. All I need you to do is deliver a package for me.

SPEAKER_07

It can't be that simple.

SPEAKER_14

Absolutely is. Very simple. I'm presuming since you have a Digimon you're a cleaner.

SPEAKER_07

It would be an odd choice to walk around with one publicly, otherwise.

SPEAKER_14

I you never know. Here, every Digimon is welcome. She walks over with a package uh that is clearly a sapatama. It's a box with sapatama in it.

SPEAKER_09

Alright.

SPEAKER_14

I would love for you to hand that in uh to the oh what's their name?

SPEAKER_18

Ministry of civil protection.

SPEAKER_14

Every week. Ministry of Civil Protection. There's little uh once you do that, I'd be happy to give you let's say eight grand Her eyebrows go up a little bit.

SPEAKER_07

Too little how about ten for delivering a box for doing what you're told There is a difference This is not what I expected when I came in here.

SPEAKER_01

What did you expect?

SPEAKER_18

Uh just the music mostly.

SPEAKER_16

Hmm?

SPEAKER_07

Just the music mostly.

SPEAKER_16

Ah.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, I didn't mean in the VIP room. I had no idea what to expect in here, but I just meant tonight.

SPEAKER_01

This is I understand.

SPEAKER_16

Look.

SPEAKER_14

An opportunity presents itself. It's one of those situations where you have to question, is it worth taking?

SPEAKER_01

And right now I can tell you a hundred percent worth taking.

SPEAKER_18

For you or for me?

SPEAKER_01

I'm only looking out for you.

SPEAKER_08

That seems like a problem.

SPEAKER_07

Shouldn't we all be looking out for ourselves?

SPEAKER_14

I think we should I think that's the correct idea. This person gets to. Uh Lyra, what do you think? She just stares you down. She's very like quiet. See, I think Loria likes you. Well, how about you scratch my back, I scratch yours? And money is the big key to that. If you don't want to make it money, we can do this some other way. What do you want? What do you need?

SPEAKER_07

I think it's a little early to answer that type of question to someone, and I'm sure you can understand because if you do tell people specifically what drives you, they'll use it. And we're just getting to know each other. Money is a better place to start, I suppose. But what would the details be? What's your time frame? How are you going to get the money to me? That kind of stuff.

SPEAKER_14

Well, very simple. You take that and you take it in by tomorrow. Tell you can head there right after the gig if you'd like. Hand it in. Money straight in your bank account.

SPEAKER_07

How will you get it to my bank account?

SPEAKER_14

Well, all I need is your name. What's your name?

SPEAKER_07

I haven't told to.

SPEAKER_14

Exactly. That's why I'm asking it. Keep up.

SPEAKER_16

Oh.

SPEAKER_07

Um man, I just want to roll all of the insight checks constantly tonight. You just It's like what why would we need to roll? It's not combat.

SPEAKER_14

Nothing nothing to roll about.

SPEAKER_07

I am pretty sure I understand what the job is out of character.

SPEAKER_16

Hmm.

SPEAKER_07

I'm pretty sure I understand what the job is in character too, which is fortunate. But um. I am still supposed to be taking this guy out tonight.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, 100%.

SPEAKER_07

So uh I know he had a Digimon. It's reasonable to assume, since he's had a gang of Digimon, that he has access to some somewhere. So I guess I wanna try to get a read on the quiet one.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, she's just staring at you.

SPEAKER_04

Um that's only a token.

SPEAKER_14

A read on her?

SPEAKER_04

Well, one grit.

SPEAKER_14

Nothing. There's no emotion. There's no token. It's like looking at a puppet.

SPEAKER_07

Is it a hundred percent like looking like at a puppet, or is it just like looking at a person who has full control of them?

SPEAKER_14

That is a name the different chump.

unknown

Huh?

SPEAKER_14

I'm supposed to explain the difference. Okay. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Sure, I can explain the difference. So if I'm looking at her and it's like looking at a puppet, then there is something wrong with her brain. Maybe she is drugged, maybe she has had a brain injury. If she is just a living doll that sits here and does everything and does not think, that's one thing. If she has complete control over herself to the point where she has an unbreakable poker face, she can always control her posture, she's disinterested, reserved, whatever. That's very different. So I guess look at her eyes.

SPEAKER_11

Because if they are the look of someone.

SPEAKER_07

I don't know that I'm gonna get anything with 12. Okay.

SPEAKER_15

That's yeah, with a 12, you don't get shit.

SPEAKER_07

You as a person, do you understand what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_14

Because in one case sort of, but at the same time, like the concept between the two of them, the only difference of like what you're saying, someone drugs, someone there, they're like, Oh, I'm zonked out, my brain isn't on. Whereas someone who has full control is on, but they're just like not showing any emotion. Yeah. It's more like the first one, but that's also like more like the uh second worry, less like the first one, but because it's very much not like they're rocked. That's the beat thing.

SPEAKER_07

Alright, so it's not I'm not getting the vibes that she is being forced. To be in here words.

SPEAKER_00

You don't know.

SPEAKER_04

And you got a six. I got a twelve.

SPEAKER_11

You got a twelve. Sorry.

SPEAKER_04

I need my bonus. You can't take that from me. Okay. I would just really like to know if she has a digiwand somewhere. Not with the 12. You don't get that with the 12.

SPEAKER_14

But yeah, you don't get that with the 12.

SPEAKER_04

Do I want to give this guy my real name? I don't think I do. Because I have no intention of actually doing what he expects me to do.

SPEAKER_07

Now, world question. How possible is it to give a fake name or somehow pretty impossible. Okay, so it's not like you're talking I walked through a scanner and it scanned my sapatama and everybody knows Shelby Koji is here.

SPEAKER_14

No. No, no. Uh you can't just instantly know who people are, etc. etc. It's nothing like that. Um there are ways to look you up, so like giving a fake name will get you so far. But if he's gonna look you up and seems to be positive that he can find you just by your name, you might be probably can't walk on borrowed time. Yeah. If he's that confident, it's probably a thing. At which rate, as I said, you're walking on borrowed time.

SPEAKER_07

Well, I know. I'm I'm trying to walk on a razor blade's edge right now. I could tell you what I want to do because you are my friend and you are also playing all of my allies. But I don't know if it's a good idea or a bad one, actually. You're not a hostile idea.

SPEAKER_11

I'm not.

SPEAKER_07

Uh okay. So the reason that I think it's probably okay to give a fake name is because I'm taking the egg, but I still fully intend to beat this guy up and turn him into the cops tonight. So he will not be finding me tomorrow anyway. Uh if he gets out, then you gotta deal with the same problem that you gotta deal with with any uh criminal who gets out. But that was gonna be the case with my real name too.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Okay. You're gonna actually require me to come up with a name. I can't just tell you. I give him a fake name because what is the fake name?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, I want a name. I want an actual fake name.

SPEAKER_05

Actual fake name. Alright.

SPEAKER_07

Let's do the thing you do. We're gonna pull it name generators.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Actually, at this point, as you go to we're just gonna do this because we're getting to that stage. As you go to say your fake name here. All the lights go off. As he sits as he what the hell? As you see the red light from across the street come on as he It's a bit early for them to open them. If they have power, why don't we have power? I'm confused. What is going through the window? Shattering as he What the hell? Coming straight through.

SPEAKER_05

I see. Oh my gosh, we're starting.

SPEAKER_14

Actually, no. It wouldn't it wouldn't be that, it would be a small little Digimon as you'd see this guy as he looks around as he ha! It seems like this was the correct place. Greetings, trans, as he oh, what's this Digimon doing in my area? As you hear just you don't know how. As you've turned to look that way, but sitting over here, you hear, oh don't worry. You're not gonna leave here to find out. None of you are. Should have probably taken the deal. He holds up his digives and he's gonna dock Digivold. That's where we're gonna end the section.

SPEAKER_07

That's at least a good distraction for that. Well, it was a bit of a shorter one this week, but I guess the Lateral 20 was down for basically an hour in the middle of this. Um we did what we could.
