::An average height blonde woman with a slightly poofy haircut, and glowing blue eyes, enters the shop. (Seren, for those of you on TSAW 3.0) She stretches out, yawning very softly and glancing around. She has her helmet off, but is otherwise clad fully in a clean, new looking CVR-3 armor with REF 163rd Reserve Unit and Angel Squadron markings. She smiles towards everyone around the shop, slipping into a seat near the counter and offering a cheery smile to one of the attendants.::

"Hi there! Need a 32oz straight black, and a jelly donut, please." ::She sets her credits down to pay for it, quickly.

::The attendant looks her over and nods a little bit, taking the money and offering her the donut and coffee.:: "Here you go." ::He offers change over then.::

::Seren gets a little distracted on seeing some of the others there, offering the Praxian a wave and raise of eyebrows. Then she turns back, taking the change.:: "Thanks!" ::She slips for a seat then, looking for somewhere close to everyone else.::

OOC: Like the setting :D All sorts of interesting possibilities ;) Though police being heavy handed about weapons isn't quite as fun. ;) (votes for option 3 :lol:)

Three Tirolians in beat-up looking jumpsuits/mini-toga combos come striding in...or rather straggering in under the weight of the middle one, who looks utterly blasted(I mean drunk)...They're obvious triplets, but are sporting facial beards, all cut differently, have bandoliers, vests, and an assortment of odd gear on their webbing harnesses, and a collection of patches and insignia from various military groups, squads, and political alliances....

Clone1: (clumping up to the counter)"Service? ....We'll have the Deep Dish Carbohydrate NUtritional Supplements 4, 12, and 32, a Horizont Tanker of black coffee...an IV for same...and a hangover remedy for him(nods at the middle clone)."
Clone2: (rouses himself enough to stare blearily at the waitress)"AAARRRPPPP!!!!"
Clone3: (under breath)"'I can handle it, just one more, he sez...he never sez that when we're under fire...'"

(The two motile ones drag their blato ballast(er, brother) to a corner stall to await their order...)

:::A man in his 40's dressed in an REF uniform with the rank of a Colonel enters the shop. His hair is mostly silver although he still retains a full head of it. He walks with a slight limp. The name patch identifies him as "Anderson". He crosses from the threshold to the counter as quickly as he can. :::

:::He looks at the clerk.::: "Can I have a coffee and make it strong and I'd like a chocolate donunt. Please." :::He looks around the cafe and his eyes stop briefly on each person present. He raises his cup to the LT. Colonel when he spots him. He moves over to spot not to far from the Lt. Colonel.:::

---Waitress rolls up a cart to the wall table where the Triumvirate has taken up station, propping up the drunk (though he keeps sliding under the table if not watched)...She does indeed have a large pot of black coffee , a pizza, a plate of bread sticks, and a salad...

Waitress: "Sorry, the coffee tank's reserved for engineers...and we're still waiting on the IV rig. The hangover remedy's still being cooked up...would you like some Vitamin C capsules in the meantime? "
Clone 1: (with a neat cut mustache and beard)"In that case, just keep the pot here and filled. And get us a funnel."
Clone 3:(Clean-shaven except for a small goatee)"He ain't going anywhere soon(points his thumb at the third)."
Clone 2:(with a rather wild beard and mustache) "...glarge..."

While they wait for a funnel and other supplements, they dig into the pizza and side dishes. .....

::Seren slips up, peering over at the clones and just shaking her head, laughing and sipping her coffee for the moment. She smiles towards the Colonel and Admiral, waving a little bit before going back to watching the clones.::

"What the heck did he drink? I should probably find out, so I know to avoid it. Even if I might not be effected as much." ::She shudders.:: "Probably should take him home to bed."

Clone 1:(noting the attention)"We're celebrating a bounty...we just bagged a former 'employer'....He tends to get rather more intense about it than we do...or maybe he's just more susceptible...or maybe he gets drunk for the rest of us...We haven't figured it out yet..."

Clone 2: "And we can't take him back to quarters...His 'WIFE'(rolls eyes in combination disgusted disbelief and annoyance...with him or her it isn't clear) learned where we were living and has staked the place out...We're not about to walk into a combat zone with part of us impaired..."

Yeah, I got "volunteered" to rescue a bunch of wet-behind-the-ears cadets on a FTX. Spent the better part of a week trying to round them all up. Seems none of them ever received proper training on how to read a damned compass or map.


Clone1:"Bad side of being regular military....you get volunteered for excrement-shoveling jobs at the same pay rate...That's why we quit..."
Clone3: "We quit because we weren't being paid ANYTHING..."
Clone1: "Right...so we went into private practice...Our card if you ever need any help...(flips Fury an e- card...activation of which zips up a holo- ID: "The Zod (pronounced 'Z-Ode') Brothers: Aries, Leo, and Skor: Special Services-Reasonable Rates-From Personal Intervention to Private Mecha Action"(short micro-holo of what looks like a trio of Bioroid Terminators wrestling various mean-looking characters around in handcuffs, then what look like a trio of heavily modified Bioroids on equally heavily modified hovercrafts doing the beauty-shot)

Clone1(Aries): "Sorry we're not at our most presentable right now, but like I said, we're celebrating a big win..."
Clone3(Skor): "Or at least HE's celebrating...otherwise he'd be the epitome of professionalism(indicates the third brother)."
Clone2(Leo): (grunts what sounds like an affirmation, then settles into a purring snore...)

::She smiles at Tolval, cocking her eyebrows slightly and sipping her coffee, wincing at Fury.:: "Ouch..."

::Then she looks back at the clones, rolling her eyes.:: "You're supposed to be getting paid. I'm in the reserves, and I'm paid for when I'm on active status. Even if my regular job pays better. I somehow don't think anyone would appreciate my reserve unit going into private practice for ourselves, for some reason."

Aries: "Well, the pay is good for private wetwork..."
Skor: "Except when somebody decides to play cute and stiff you, or hide behind the regular military for something they didn't want to pay for...or draft official orders for some poor sap to take a mission for..."
Aries: "And bear in mind they like to send us out on jobs where politics would prevent them from sending in the regulars...which means a higher chance of us eating a missile..."
Skor: "We have the option of refusing a job, but you get addicted to eating regularly..."
Aries: "...Or they don't tell us that a simple in-out bail-jumper tag-and-bag is really some ex-REF major turned protoculture dealer and gun-runner..."
Skor: "Of course, he had favors owned him by some of his old commands, which made it all the harder when we started tracking him down..."
Aries: "As for 'stooges'...We play cleanup on a lot of the domestic strife and grey space the regular military isn't allowed to, or can't, take care of and the local police don't have jurisdiction to follow up on..."
Skor: (stabbing a tomato with a salad prong and wolfing it back)"...And arguably more job satisfaction..."
Aries: "Sure, the health plan sucks.."
Skor: "But compared to WHAT?....Another clone with my face if I take an overdose of laser?"

:::The Colonel eats his donut slowly and nurses his coffee while listening to the conversation going on. He looks over at the LT. Col and the Admiral.::: "Forgive me sir. I've been on detached duty for way too long. I was on a LRRP mission. I only got back recently. My squad were on a deep penetration mission. Our mother ship did something and got killed while were out carry out our mission. We're not entirely sure what happened. I only know that the information we had on our sensors was classified by the intelligence boys when we were found on that planet. I know we were way out beyond the areas patrolled by any of the Robotech powers. We spent nearly six months out on some jungle planet, of course I was the only member of my squadron to survive the ordeal. It was bad!"

"Thank you Colonel Fury. I thought I'd recognized you when I entered this place. I appreciate both the Admiral's and your concern. I have to mind my Ps&Qs for awhile since I was pretty pissed when I finally got picked up a few weeks ago. The loss of my entire command shouldn't happened. But that planet was uncharted."...... :::His eyes hide the horrors he seen during the past six month's.::: "My team made it down intact to the planets surface after our Garfish was destroyed. My second in command and I almost made it out." :::He looks at both of his fellow officers with sorrow filled eyes at first which harden up to megasteel as the milliseconds click by.::: "Debriefing was a pain in the arse. I'm on a light duty until my wounds have healed up. The planet I can talk about. It was as I said a few minutes ago an unexplored and uncharted jungle world. We found out it was inhabited by a savage people who took to our flesh like mosquito's love blood."

::Seren snickers softly at the Colonel.::

"Oh, I don't plan on going rogue, I have no real reason to, after all. I'm happy with my job, as are all the other pretty little Solugi girls in my squadron. We generally work as troubleshooters, anyway. Find trouble, go deal with it, then send a report back before moving on to find the next problem. Since finding the problem is usually up to us, we have nearly that kind of freedom in it anyway."

::She glances over to the clones then, sipping her drink and listening, wincing just a little bit.:: "Er... ouch. Politics are stupid anyway. Eating a missile is not fun, seen it happen to people before. REF Corruption is never fun to deal with either. Trying to poke a nose into it from within, and you risk getting busted down or drummed out, or worse..."

::She shivers slightly at the thought, peering over at the RDF guy and shrugging slightly.:: "I've got the other girls to be thinking about still. And we aren't spies by trade."

::She glances to the other Colonel then, and frowns just slightly.:: "Whatever it was, I suppose if it didn't like you enough that you lost a Garfish, we'll wind up running into it soon enough. Maybe someone not as tasty smelling will have to be sent out, if the planet has anything important."

Skor: (Drops his voice to a low Southern Tirolian accent)"Men....they say they are brave...but they go out there(points vaguely to the sky)...and then they are afffffrrrraaaiiiiddddd..."

:::Col. Anderson looks over at Khytahn after watching the Col. Fury preparing the hangover remedy for the drunk clone.::: "I'm not at liberty to say anything sir. It could be them and maybe it something else. I don't rightly know. But I think sometime soon we'll find out. It'll be interesting to see how your cure will work Colonel Fury!"

::Seren glances over at the yelling Praxian, blinking just slightly and raising eyebrows, offering a smile, before listening to the others, blinking just slightly. She nods to Colonel Anderson.:: "Yikes. Ah..."

::She listens quietly then to the Zentraedi telling his story, nodding just slightly and considering it.:: "A pleasure for me to meet you as well, Lt. Khytahn. Sounds like something nasty going on, where you were, though. Still, at least you made it out all right. I'm sure they've checked by now for any problems with you." ::She shakes her head a bit.:: "Just another report of what happens when cloning is meddled with too much. I've heard rumors of other nasty results of that, as well. Mostly when the body of an ultra-rare psi sensitive on Earth was found. The story I heard was that the Regis wanted to incorporate some of it into the Solugi. Just that when they reconstructed the brain well enough to get to it all... the latent memories all woke up. Didn't hear much, mostly that, and that was just second hand. No trace of anything like it after the Genesis Pit exploded. Though it was sworn the person cloned had done it." ::She shrugs.:: "Might poke around and see how much truth there was in it, sometime."

::She blinks at the men walking in, raising her eyebrows and laughing very softly at the discussion, then shakes her head and smiles towards the RDF guy, when he speaks to her. "Well, I only brush against them depending on the problem my crew is trying to deal with. I do try to avoid direct contact..."

::She just... stares at Fury's coffee antics then.:: "Er... I'd think it'll make him more violently sick, than sober him."

::She glances up when Kichirii addresses the shop, nodding just a little bit. and blinking at the statement just said. She holds back any snickering though, at least till the far taller woman walks out. Then she blanches at Khytahn, frowning.:: "I dearly hope not. If so, others need to be informed about it as well. That's something that needs to be interdicted against quickly." ::She glances to Anderson.:: "You know how some people might react to even the rumor of such a thing going on. Or is that why it's not being said? To avoid stirring up a panic with some groups?"

Aries and Skor look dubiously at the cure...then nod 'What the hell..."...Pick up Leo and forcefeed the mixture to him...

No reaction at first...
Then Leo starts up with an abrupt 'erk!', his eyes roll about for a moment...he reels back for the pitch...
then slams back down...
dead asleep again...

Aries: (to Fury)"Good try...but I'm afraid we were designed with caste-iron stomachs....and Leo's less discriminating than either of us..."
Skor: "I don't think he'd bat an eye if you offered him a baked Pollinator..."
Aries:"Some of the things we ate when we were stranded on that Karbarrean world...I don't think a spit-cooked Stage One Invid could be more disgusting than some of the meals we had ...oh sorry, ma'am(looks at a slightly greener Seren) ..."
Skor: "What was it he was drinking anyway?"
Aries: "Don't know, but it was green....We may have to up it..."
Skor: "You mean...?"
Waitress:(Listening in) "You mean...?"
Aries: "Yes...(whispers in the waitress's ear and hands her a credit wafer..)

Aries:(Turning back to the rest of the room as the waitress walks away)"If that doesn't sober him up, we bury him until self-preservation wakes him up....Now where were we?"

Aries:(Taking note of the tattoo)"Some of the post-Fall clone batches took to tattooing as a means of identifying their group affiliation...Taking up artificial 'traditions' as a way of bonding in absence of the Masters' oversight....Most of the early tattoos were based on clone-vat or assignment codes, but later on, they became staylized to the point of Yakuza-styling...In fact, the conflicts between the Neo-Yakuza and the larger, more organized Tirolian gangs became known as the 'Skin Wars' among the authorities..."

Skor:"Plenty of opportunity there for taking bounties if you dodin't mind two sets of lunatics shooting at you..."

Aries: "Some of those 'lost boy' gangs grew into full-blown criminal organizations...and some of them got access to spacecraft, Protoculture, and even had some high-echelon Clone and Science Masters calling the shots or providing augmentation and advice...I don't recognize that particular icon, though..."

::Seren just... stares at the clones for a moment, before hearing Khytahn and laughing softly.:: "Perfect. Heh. Right." ::She makes a silly face.::

::She looks upward towards the much taller Korlina, blinking slightly.:: "Your sister? Hmm... Well, depending on what she's said, of course..." ::She almost looks nervous at the concept.::

::She looks over towards the clones then, her tone turning sarcastic.:: "Nice to know things are getting so much better there... I can see why there'd b e plenty of bounties. Gangers with access to enough equipment to be dangerous like that, especially with deposed enemies behind the scene, need to be dealt with. Quickly. Better hurry and find em up, or the 163rd will beat you to the punch."

Aries: "We're between jobs...and most of our work isn't gang related...A lot of governments would prefer a big showy success by the regular police or armed forces, rather than a band of hired guns doing the job when and where a politico can't claim credit..."

Skor: "Except when the raw recruits who get sent on 'urban patrol' get totally avoided by the criminal element, or worse, subverted...And nobody likes bothering the veteran special forces, because then they have admit they screwed up in the first place...And for some community leaders, that's hitting too close to their campaign..."

Aries: "But by then the neighborhood folks,,,those who haven't been totally intimidated by the gangs...frankly don't mind if a Bioroid does a high speed straight down drop out of the sky, punched a hole in the side of a gang hideout, grabs the bandit leader and his lieutenants, and pops a few polymer-crete missiles into their arsenals before pullinga Mach 1 vertical ascent...hard to get into your blackmarket mecha for a pursuit when it's covered in a thick layer of quick-set armor-acrylic(g)"

Skor:"...And they're too busy hugging cover because a Terminator's laying down sniper fire while another Bioroid's piling their rides atop one another..."

Aries:"The great joy of mecha is that you CAN apply a maximum of force in a minimal amount of space....Taking out a gang by conventional means would mean blocking off a city block, going in in armored vehicles, going door to door separating civilians from bangers, and ending up firing thousands of rounds in a shoot-out with them...With a Bioroid, it's just a matter of using sensors to lock on, punching through a wall, and wrapping Jo-Jo's bedframe around him before taking him taco-style, bedsheets and all, to the local lock-up."

Skor: "We just take advantage of the naturally quiet and stealthy operation of our hovercraft and Terminator armor...those overcoats and large feet-pads are really good at muffling noise...plus we've added a few of our little innovations...I spent enough time with an Recon Escort Patrol squad after the 2nd War to pick up a few tricks..."

Aries:"Flashy? I've seen spec-force Saber Cycloners do pretty much the same thing....volley of flash-bang missiles or tear gas to keep the soldiers' heads down, while going in and slicing down doors to get at the meat."

Skor:"And don't forget the EP-shots to the engine blocks..."
