of beneath big bad shadowrunners like us, but a sammy's got to inject those
anticoagulants. I need a decker, a rigger with CCSS experience, and a mage
for astral backup.

Easy, Lyting, Peter, you still out there? Remember the run on Nova
Research? This'll be another like that. Unfortunately, Phoenix and Johnny Q
are now dead, so I can't ask them along. If you guys are up for it, you've
got first shot at the positions I'm trying to fill.]<<<<<

which is a lawyers office. We have to break in and get copies of some
hardcopy documents, then put 'em back in the safe without anyone noticing.
I've done a preliminary check of the site (had my will changed while I was
there), and I'll include details of what I saw. We'll be wanting more info
though, I saw a "Hardware by Knight Errant" sticker on the front door.

+++++Include WhatRSaw.txt

Still need a Decker to take a closer look at it's matrix profile. Know
anyone? I can probably get hold of a projectable mage and a rigger
through... shall we say other channels.]<<<<<

*****PRIVATE: Lyting, Ronin
>>>>>[I have to confess this job doesn't sound like something I can do
very well.

I can get you in there easily, past almost any opposition. But
unnoticed? That isn't my scene. At the least, you have missing guards
and odd brown stains in the rug if you use me. Not at all what you
wanted, and I've got an offer from some British-connected person to play
enemy to their Army for a week or so.

Try Krzdan- Kryzdyn- Marlowe, a PI based out of Auburn. He's not bad in
a fight, and smart enough to know when to fight and when to run like
hell. He seems better suited to this kind of work. Just use 'Marlowe' as
the address - if you get a daguerrotype of some guy from the last
century, that's the right address.

If you need straight muscle, though, let me know. Breaking people is
what I do best. Sorry to let you down, Ronin, but I don't want to frag
up your run by pretending to skills (like, taking people down without
killing them or permanently damaging them) I don't have.]<<<<<

And what about that rigger Evita mentioned, Runs Over Pedestrians or
something?]<<<<<

General info though... the target is a lawyers office which aparently has a
CCSS system. Are you familiar with this sort of gear? The pay for the job
is >>amount<< each, and we are required to break in and make copies of some
(hardcopy) documents without anyone noticing.]<<<<<

If you can make it to >>place<< by >>time, soon<<, then you can

BTW, Easy was the one that put your name in my ear, in case that matters to
you.]<<<<<
