[Housekeeping notes: we're fast-forwarding a bit to the security conference itself. Y'all can be assumed to have obtained anything reasonable during the shopping trip, from toys for the mothlings to jams for Sasha, and whatever else. We can also assume that Seyli more than adequately trained the Lanterner assassins in the use of the equipment sold to them.]
The Cantata docked smoothly in its assigned berth at the conference's hosting station. Remi promised that he would keep the mothlings out of sight, although it seemed suspiciously clear that he was looking forward to running intelligence tests on them in the guise of "games" manufactured with the aid of the matter printer and some toy schematics he picked up during the shopping trip.
Meanwhile, Fluffy the Vraselian pseudo-dragon keeps having to be shooed out of various public areas and appears to be building a nest out of scavenged materials.
It wasn't too difficult getting basic tools/implements/weapons past the conference's security. Paranoia is high, but so are distractions. The designated "dueling fan" is within sight at the far end of a hall with highly decorated vendor booths and poster displays. She is plump, wide-eyed, and deceptively excitable in affect, although Seyli knows from working with her during the trip that she's a quick study and she's really good with knives. She is, in fact, in duelist cosplay, complete with a hot pink Space Styrofoam boffer weapon.
Two booths away from the Lanterner "dueling fan," General Shuos Jedao can be seen with his aide, talking seriously to a highly muscular, tattooed, and decorative company representative. The banner behind the booth advertises "delicious hazelnut gianduja" ration packs laced with various popular stimulants.
[NOTE: So there are two big options for getting involved in this move!
(a) Part of the extraction team removing Jedao, or
(b) Staying behind and preparing the Cantata for extraction. In particular, Remi is looking for one or more volunteers to help him socialize and/or test the mothlings.
Obviously, you're welcome to take a third option if one occurs to you. If you need help brainstorming involvement, please feel free to message me or ask in the comments.]

Plan outline - paging everyone
Date: 2019-03-19 12:05 pm (UTC)Ione's drug is in a diffuser inside a cleaning drone. Sasha and Alaric have used the Rahal accesses to make the code look like it was written by adherents to a minor heptarchate heresy.
Reshad is at the booth. She waits till the duelist makes her move, then triggers Ione's drug to hit an area including both Jedao and the other assassins, and fakes being disoriented as well.
Seyli, dressed as Kel, runs over and walks Jedao away from the scene. They take him to the back of a small, anonymous delivery trike which Ione is driving.
Alaric is backup (in his white coat). He retrieves Reshad.
Sasha and Aymad hack the station, keeping it from recording details that could be used to identify Ione and Seyli, and blocking any attempts at decompression.
If you don't have character plans for this move & want an assignment from Sasha, or want a different one from the plan outlined above, say the word!]

Date: 2019-03-22 11:41 pm (UTC)[It wouldn't astonish me if there were other assassins Flute didn't tell us about, so having a Rahal around to scry for signs of stress makes a lot of sense!]
