RAC IC for The Warrant

I'm starting to get used to cat fur being trapped in my whiskey. There's something wrong with that.

[Rene]

What are you doing?

JEM

If you hear anything from your former crew let me know, darlings. Do not engage otherwise. [...] This is an order.

SLING

You've heard the announcement from Vanya, and as it stands, unless the director wishes for us to intervene I do not intend for the Sling to go anywhere. The situation has too many variables that remain unknown, and regardless of circumstances the CL is not a ship to be underestimated — whether it is still piloted by fractions of the crew or new members.

Furthermore, there is plenty of work for us to do here. If you have not already done so, please get a quick medical check.

Have there been any strange happenings? No electrical failures? Engines in order?

Thank you.

JUDE & MATHIAS & SOL & RENE & ELYSIAN & WINSTON

There is not enough alcohol on this ship to get me through the next few days, which is rather alarming.

Yeah so watch out for the creeper who will try to sell you kittens out of his coat on your way home.

Book club. Tell me.

Even with the destruction, the view of Earth is still pretty spectacular.

I do not advise coming here for a bounty, but it was worth the trip, this time. The Tequila Sunrise has apprehended one of the politicians who is heavily implicated in the Astral Gate incident that cost billions of lives and drove us and our parents from their home. It is never more clear than when you are standing in the ruins of a beautiful city how important it is to bring the people who caused this tragedy to justice.

We will see you all in a few days. Long trip home.

[LONDON + TS]

We are a little bit worse for wear, this time. Did you know there are crazy doomsdayers living beneath Paris, in the catacombs? Neither did we.

If you wish to alert the media, let us know. Not all of us should be on camera right now. We should be back by the 15th.

[Tequila Sunrise]

I'm flying into Tijuana tonight. I was planning on sticking around for the party and that's what I did.

Also I got into a slight (emphasize: slight) dust up with a couple of Cuba Libre arseholes at the party.

[Ireland]

Thought you were coming last night?

[ posted is an unhackable & untraceable (non-live) video feed of the following: our masked kidnappers against a grey, stony backdrop without a single thing to identify the location. they're relatively jovial throughout the whole thing as they greet the RAC and introduce themselves as the ones who left the little present last month, DID YOU LIKE IT? :') because there's more to come!

edited throughout are short snippets of video surveillance of RAC members and footage of outside HQ as they launch into how the RAC would be nothing if not for them: the bad guys, the villains, what would you have without them? all you are is a bunch of desperate wannabes; it's just sad, tbh. we've been watching you, looking so safe and snug, but how safe do you feel now, reclamation agent coalition? are you missing someone, maybe!? :(

the terms are laid out: five names listed of vergil's incarcerated men to be released in exchange for the five agents they have. no footage is released of the agents, sry gaiz. the cost of failing to comply? in 72 hours, your agents are dead. bye bye now! :) ♥♥ ]

[ OOC: characters may reply to this!!!! there will be no replies back, though, obviously. also feel free to retcon in your character(s) into that video surveillance (it's like CCTV; it can be from anywhere in ganymede, but probably around HQ/the downtown core). this is the official kick-off of the 4-day kidnapping plot! ]

[the morning after this]

KAJAL SINGH

How many vacation days do I have?

JUDE NOVAK & RENÉ BEAU— SEPARATELY

I need a drink.

EDEN LANDO

Think I could make it as a bartender?
