in-person or text-only? not that i can't get you addresses and stuff, but I've got the basic lay of the land and (no offense, o condor overlords) i know where the registered heroes tend to patrol if you wanna keep off the radar.

plus if you're ever in a bind for money, i know the easiest places to lift food from that aren't nauseatingly gross.

i'll be in a ball cap and a leather jacket. see you then.

[withoutaworld]

Right. This is not creepy or suspicious at all, Mr. or Ms. A.

[notreallygood]

creepy is irrelevant. do you have any useful info?

[withoutaworld]

...really not helping the sketchy factor.

What kind of information are you looking for anyway? Good restaurants in the area? Places for rent? Who's most likely to arrest your butt when someone pays you to commit a crime?

[notreallygood]

what does sketching have to do with anything?

places to rent would be a good place to start. getting sick of hotel rooms.

[withoutaworld]

Nothing, it's... Nothing at all.

I don't actually know where to rent anything. I live in the Trailblazers building. And you are taking those questions a lot more seriously than I meant them.

[notreallygood]

i said i need info. why shouldn't i take it seriously?

[The Trailblazers. That's a good group name to note. Thanks, Rikki!]

[withoutaworld]

Because the very next thing I said was kind of accusing you of being a hitman or something.

[notreallygood]

i've been accused of worse things.

[withoutaworld]

Are you one?

[notreallygood]

if i told you i'd have to kill you.

[withoutaworld]

Funny.

groucho marx, that's me
