(Are you eavesdropping or just logging? :D) (Actually eavesdropping.) (I have the power of sound!) * Montana walks up to the blond woman with a nice, white smile and one hand tucked into a pocket. "Tilda," he says, tipping his hat. "Fancy seein' you here." [Montana approaches a very attractive woman. She's wearing a white jacked lined with feathers, a black silk top with a collar so low it ends less than an inch above her navel (and yes, her chest is quite large), a short miniskirt and some leather boots. Her hair is shoulder-length and slicked back, her eyes a pale blue. And her lipstick is a deep red. "Montana, my American friend. How are you?"] * Montana shrugs. "Not bad, all things considered. Heard about the artifacts here, and I had to take a look. How about you?" [She smiles, "You know me and my love of history. I can't keep away."] * Montana snerks. "You and few other people, yeah?" [She grins. "Such as yourself?"] * Montana glances back at the display. "They *are* gorgeous, but..." He sighs. "No. I'm thinkin' this one might not be worth it." ["Oh? Gone soft have you? Not that I mind. I could do without the competition."] [Then Alysha comes over, standing next to Montana, and she grins wider. "Oooh, I see."] * Shiho has joined #MCtana [Alysha looks back and forth between Montana and Tilda. "Huh? See what?"] * Montana puts a hand to his forehead, then turns to Alysha and says, "Problem?" [And then Shiho follows over. The woman grins wider. "My, what a lucky man you are, Montana."] [Alysha looks from the woman to Montana. "Who's this?"] Riiiiight, sorry about the slip of manners there. * Shiho raises a hand in greeting. "Don't mind me, just following the boss." * Montana gestures to the blond woman. "This is Tilda, an old colleague of mind. Tilda, I'd like you to meet Alysha and Shiho." He pauses. "And I am thinkin' I'm pretty lucky, given I still have my hat." [Tilda smiles. "The pleasure's all mine. Montana and I go way back."] (s/mind/mine) ["Right," says Alysha. She turns to Montana. "Well when you're finished doing... whatever, I need you back with the others." And then she heads back, just like that.] * Shiho rolls her eyes. "Nice meeting you, Tilda." She follows Alysha back. * Montana rolls his eyes once Shiho leaves, which makes a nice eye rolling chain. ["She's cute," says Tilda. "I wonder who she is, that she needs a bodyguard. Perhaps your latest mark?"] * Montana hehs. "She's more dangerous than she looks, trust me." Mostly because of her bodyguards, but he doesn't say that. "Helped me out of a scrape once." ["Don't tell me you're working for her."] * Montana offers a small, crooked grin. "Then I won't. How about you - flying solo?" [She smiles. "Not this time. Speaking of which, I'd best be going. I have to meet my collegues."] [She blows Montana a kiss. "Take care of yourself, my American friend." Then she leaves!] * Montana tips his hat to her with a smile, which vanishes as soon as she turns her back. He gives her a moment's head start, then looks back to Sonia before moving to tail Tilda, at least as long as he can reasonably get away with. ( Stealth roll! ) ( I'll say camoflauge spec, camoflauging among the crowd. And no I can't spell camoflauge right. ) (Think that might be good enough!) (Ah, I went with silent. If it's camo, I got a 19.) ( Good enough. ) [Montana tails her! The good news is she uses the stairs to get down. It's a bit of a walk, three large storeys. But at least he doesn't get crammed into an elevator.] * Montana uses the stairs as well, then, removing his hat as he does so he's less easy to spot. [Montana tails her to the museum's entrance, where she gets into a car at the bottom of the steps. In the car with her are two men. (Sight rolls)] (If that's not high enough, I'ma DR it.) ( It's not ) (Also, I assume mind is the stat in question?) (Since his body's higher. XP) ( Yep ) ( It's pretty much always mind unless it's like touch or something. ) (Enough?) ( Nope ) ( Are you sure you want to burn through all these DRs? :o ) (What's the TN before I blow another - 12?) ( 12 :P ) (Well, I really want to know. :/ Tailing for no reason stinks!) (But we'll take it. What kind of car?) ( A sleek Alfa Romeo ) ( Black ) (Okay. ^^ I take it they drive off as soon as she gets in?) ( Yep ) * Montana watches them drive off, squinting to get a look at the license plate but there's really no way, and then turns and heads back into the museum. Oh, he puts his hat back on his head, too. (Unless I did see the plate - do I roll for that? :D) ( Nope, too late :P ) (Aw.)
