un: sling shot | audio | after wedding no. 2 goes awry
Hey. [ The voice coming through your magical doohickey is low and maybe congested. Whatever this is doesn't sound like good news. Then the speaker clears his throat, continues in lighter tones, his cadence practiced: ] Are you somewhere private? Because that would be a good place to be right now.
[ There's a good twenty-second pause filled with ambient train noise. Time enough to close your communicator, make your excuses. ] Great. [ Again: it doesn't sound great! ] Um. So, uh, earlier this afternoon as I was leaving the movie theater, I bumped into the bride-to-be...or not-to-be...Like. [ A single solid clap. ] Bam. Well, her little attache case went flying and in the course of helping her, you know, recombobulate herself I may have glimpsed a thing or two relevant to our present circumstances.
[ A beat. Hastily: ] Not weapons. Nothing like that. [ Please don't commit unilateral or joint murder based on his intel! ] But, okay, before we go any further, I've got a few questions for you:
Do we know anyone onboard whose name starts with C? As in crazy, or camembert.
Have any of you talked to Prassenze? [ Rest assured: he mangles the pronunciation. Maybe he'll figure it out by the third wedding. ] Had a little heart-to-heart?
Uh, and last but definitely not least, what the hell?
Great. [ Great! ] Thanks. Over and out.
[ ooc: threadjack away! mod-provided deets on the suitcase's contents are here, since jimmy will share all that info but it'll be run through a jimmy-filter and he's allergic to being direct.
(also if your char would want to talk to him in person, lmk and I can do a starter for that!) ]

don't be sorry! we can merge if you want! or segue this one into action? i'm game for whatever!
[ Jesse might be bummed out emotionally, but if Saul doesn't know Jesse yet, well, he's also missing out on the beaucoup bucks. Before everything started getting a little out of control, the cash flow was nothing to scoff at. ]
Maybe we should talk, like...in person then? I dunno.
[ He doesn't want to seem overeager and, really, he isn't. While he's pretty sure this guy'll look like the same shifty criminal lawyer he knows, it's not like he'll have any memory of anything they've been through. It'll be a one-way highway of information without much quid pro quo. ]
Guess that depends on how intrigued you are.
