UN: ??? - Video - Forward dated to Nov 15 for plot reasons

[ The Doctor twirled the funny looking little pendant over in his hand. He had used it before to speak to others but this was the first occasion he had decided to make a posting of his own. Given what he had learned though it felt nessacary. ]

Impressive place... the Palace of the Doxe. I do like the floors but I don't think I should like to work here if I were very much younger than I am. I've noticed they have this peculiar hiring habit. Everyone in Bonaccorso’s employ, well... nearly everyone, is quite young. You've noticed that? Perhaps you have also noticed the vacant look in their eyes?

[ And what could cause that! He seemed to know though hesitate to say over an unknown communications device. ]

Little wonder they can't seem to get any of their work done.

Which brings me around to an interesting problem you see... I need something shifted. It's a fairly large item and you are all such innovative people I'm sure you might have discovered the means to slip things in and out of the Palace without disturbing anyone? I shouldn't like to bother the staff or the nobles with this, not with so much else going on. I might also need a safe place to store the item, just for a little while, until we can get it to where it belongs.

Was that vague enough to confuse any unfriendlies but open enough to hint that he had met a 15 year old boy who needed smuggling out of the Palace? No?  ]

I think I will take a tour of the gardens later today if anyone would like to meet in person.



[ OOC NOTES - This post in made in response to the November Plot Roles

I am ICly looking for some help to smuggle a young boy out of Bonaccorso’s employ for the November plot. If interested just reply and have your character offer help. Otherwise the Doctor can tell your characters what he will learn from poking around amounst Bonaccorso’s servants on the 15th.
If you want to plot something OOCly PM this account or hit my plurk - [plurk.com profile] coco_rose

And forgive the vagueness but I couldn't find anything that said how secure or not the communications were and since they are spy gaming things it seemed better to talk in person. If you want more directness just put Gardens in the reply header.

Shame. Seemed like a decent sort. [Poorly-fitting uniform, though.]

That's familiar enough. We'll just have to make sure we're not caught outside after curfew. Besides--I've been out hunting those critters that the invaders left behind. I've got a few bits of them lying around to prove it. Good, honest work to protect the city. Hells, that's the sort of thing we warn the guards away from if we see them--we can't let them go wandering into infested territory, they're not equipped for that.

[Is he willing to use a creepy bit of exoskeleton as a prop to misdirect the guards? Hell yes he is.]

If they hear one of them shrieking, definitely. Not easy to mistake for anything else. [Which also meant he probably couldn't manage that, even with the weird tricks Fox had been teaching him. But the horrible death-rattle clicking, he could probably still do.]

Sure, sure. I can get you a spare. [From somewhere. And someone. To be determined.]
