I like the rush sir, of being in the field. The knowledge that you can end a life just like that, and that your'e one of the best there is at doing so, its a thing like no other. Its a combination of pride and thrill is better than anything else in the world sir. Being able to kill anyone in the world when they feel so secure in their position, is a satisfying thing indeed. Then grin, but don't make of a happy grin. Let's shake the fuck out of this suit and make him stir a bit. But then at the end dismiss it slightly just to be polite, play the social game. We might just be able to make him respect and fear us, which is absolutely what we want.

Do you like killing people?

I think we can take Penelope's answer on this one:

Yes. I like it. Because they shoot at me, and also because killing is cool, and I'm good at it, and someone had to.

We prefer the adrenaline of the fight rather than the kill itself. A job well done also leaves a sense of satisfaction as well.
It's really more about being the last guy left standing and looking at what has now been created. I dunno.

Sir, to be honest, we could wax the philosophy over the thrill of conflict all day but that would be wasting your time, unless you don't mind, then I have a 30-hour presentation over what it's like to kill. Not really, but you get what I mean. I can get really into it. I can also get out real easy. I'm not a sociopath, but yeah, no, I love my job and what I get to do when it's done right with style.

"i like it, yeah," 73-6 says. "it's a good rush and they deserve it."
"Good!"
"also there was one guy who when i killed him sounded like a chicken."
"Hah!"
"that was pretty funny."
"I'll bet."
"i'm not a sociopath or anything but it's a challenge and it feels like winning."

"You're not a sociopath?" Sosa asks. "Well I am. But then I'm a CEO and you're just a trained assassin. I'm joking!"
He and 73-6 share another half-mutual laugh.
"Not about the sociopathy, though. High-functioning disempathetic. Which is why I'm so comfortable as an exorbitantly wealthy CEO in an era when untold billions are impoverished and malnourished. I deal in murder and treat entities who could well be called people, that's you, like sophisticated cute little guided missiles."
"yes, sir."
"Luckily for you, 73-6, although my capacity for empathy is chemically stunted to around a tenth of its proper level, I have a profound and jovial appreciation for guided missiles who earn me money and make me look great. You qualify."
"thank you, sir."
"And just between us psychos, kid, I think you deserve a reward," Sosa says. "So let's brainstorm, 73-6. What can I do for you?"

I never got an answer about Sev's feeling's in ITQ over this but a robot body instead of being a corpse would be pretty bitchin', not sure if they'd be willing to splurge on the exchange, but yeah would be pretty good. I mean, they could totally bug you forever, probably, and nuke you any time they feel... no nevermind on the robot body, we can do that after we retire, which I don't want to mention to the CEO as a goal of ours

A hell of a lot of shell upgrades would be cool. To kill better with. Just go "Fuck balance", you know?
Money bonus is actually always good, but something we might not want to ask upfront to hide our retirement plans.
Another idea I have is essentially asking for a batmobile, only I guess it would be a moldy mobile.
And finally a big fat fuck-all weapon. Something that feels really good, top-of-the-line.

We need something really special, like a spy motorcycle with stealth capabilities. We could have him design a prototype that would be immune to radar and would make no sound when it was drove. Also it would be bullet resistant and would have a silenced machine gun in front, maybe a proxy mine in back to drop. Please guys agree with this sev would love of so much.

Since all the other suggestions are for shell upgrades and cool weapons and shit, here's a couple low priority personal ones: How 'bout a fix for your jaw muscles so you can snip the voodoo head mouth stitching. It'd be nice to be able to eat a sandwich without having to cut it into bits beforehand, yanno. And maybe a better vocoder; One that sounds more like a human and less like a cheesy 20th century sci-fi robot.

A modest discretionary budget and some shell upgrades would be nice and helpful for killing. Though that bike sounds mighty cool.

Honestly, we should be focusing on our current mission. I'd suggest getting our wet-work up to snuff with our hacking. A 12 pack of shell upgrades should work for that. Any shells we don't use we can pass on to our crew.

On the other side of things, what can we do subtly to get towards that retirement plan? We don't want to tip our hand so easily about that.
>>
No. 585802 ID: 879a42

For those asking for shell upgrades, I'm pretty sure we wouldn't be able to cram them all in our face, we might have a heart attack something. Even if we have to wait, or split it with pen, I don't think we will be allowed such a supply of lvl ups to pop at as rapid a pace as possible, nor would boss man be onboard with making us too powerful, I think he would be more into giving us a thing. Fear and respect remember? He won't give us 20 shell upgrades for fear we will pull a 14-1, which we do intend to do when this is all said and over with and the time is right. Motorcycle 4lyfe.

If you're going to shoot down the shells, you need to provide a better alternative. Especially given the fact that our next target is going to be a more militaristic force, and we may be walking into a situation where there is minimal hacking.

Yeah, point out given you're the sixth Sev-Three the old body's a bit battered up? Not exactly sure what a tune-up would entail though.

Alternatively, maybe you might want to get something of more than monetary value. A one-use high priority extraction if a mission goes wrong? Sev-Three's already been written off once.

"uh," says 73-6. "well, i was thinking maybe a better stipend, a new gun, maybe a motorcycle, with, like, a gun on top of the motorcycle, maybe some shell upgrades, maybe like, a strix, maybe a retirement plan..."
Sosa bursts into laughter again.
73-6 laughs too.
"You're a funny man, 73-6," Sosa says. "And such refreshingly simple tastes, for the most part."
"maybe a priority extraction," 73-6 says. "if things go wrong."
"I like that, 73-6. Consider priority extraction yours. And I'll talk to your handlers about kicking some more... official tech your way. So you don't have to find it yourself." Sosa leans back. "I'm told you've been visiting the Black Stalls."
"yes sir."
"Very classy, 73-6. Pricy hardware."
"yes sir."
"Not a lot of agents could afford to shop there, but you're not a lot of agents, are you?"
"i saved my stipend for a while."
"And the Strix. That's the favored weapon of former agent 14-1, isn't it? The decommissioned asset. It says here on your file you worked with him for a while."

73-6 swallows. His saliva tastes a little like formaldehyde.

"Working with an unliving legend. How was that, 73-6?"

He was experienced and offered good cover fire. Also Sosa never mentioned the retirement plan so we should act like we think he is still in the buisiness. For all we SHOULD know he is anyway, asking how he got a retirement plan will let him know someone told us it happened at all.

>>
No. 585843 ID: 2fd516

>>585840
Monica told us this:
"He's the only reconstituted asset to ever retire."

So yes, we know he's retired. Monica did not know HOW he retired, though. He told us himself- by hiding money he found, collecting sensitive information on the Bureau by hacking into their systems, and by saving important peoples' lives. He collected assets, blackmail material, and favors. By the time the Bureau noticed what was going on, he was both too valuable and too toxic to take action against. So they just agreed to let him retire. It was like a peace treaty.

I'm not sure we want to go the blackmail route, because they'll be expecting that. We might not want to keep hiding money either, they'll be keeping track of sev-three's finances closely now so we won't be able to spend it. Gathering favors seems like our best route. We may be able to get some legitimate sources of extra money, too. The Bureau won't take money 73-6 gets legitimately, will they?

We should also try to make it look like we're not trying to do what 14-1 did. Keep in mind he was the 14th reconstituted asset. There have been hundreds more assets since then, and many of them have likely tried to do what 14-1 did. None succeeded, as they have likely been killed and recycled by the Bureau.

Overplayed our hand. He noticed us saving money, you mentioned the strix, and retirement. He knows 14-1 got us on his gameplan. The CEO was likely even with the company when 14 made his move.

>Working with an unliving legend. How was that, 73-6?
It was good to have competent backup and unstoppable firepower on my side.

Fun.
I like working with the best. Not just him, either. Our new agent is a fantastic monster that can now block full-auto firepower with a mere sword. I'm IN a japanese anime it's getting so crazy. You could honestly make a saturday morning cartoon about us now.
Honestly not a bad idea to make some money and publicity for the bureau, now that I think about it. There's some risk if there's a moldy protagonist, and a lot networks are going to try and put it on the worst times possible to cancel it if it's good and expensive, like Friday night. But we'll probably be a cult hit with the adult children.

"In a manner of speaking, he's on our side," Sosa says. "I'll tell you what, 73-6: we are not on his side."
"he didn't talk much," 73-6 says. "basically just told me when he had the shot. monica told me he retired or something? i didn't know reconstituted assets could retire."
"14-1 was always an iceman. A glitch in the system. It won't happen again. Don't worry, 73-6. You're a lot more personable than he ever was. Making all your fun new friends. What's the one with the sword again?"
"Pen- uh, 108-1, sir."
"108-1. Right. For a reconsituted asset, 73-6, you're very charismatic. And it was Jenny Holzer I think who once said that lack of charisma can be fatal."
"thank you, sir."
"I like you, 73-6," Sosa says. "You're a valuable asset. A valuable, intriguing asset. I look forward to watching you kick the Fantomas in their Fantomass."
He laughs, again. It sounds like an expensive, friendly chainsaw.
"And I will be watching you, 73-6.

Monica taps the radar blip.

"you got me someone to kill?" 73-6 says. He's itching to go do something he knows he's good at.

"I got you like a hundred," Monica says. "We mined your leak and found Lockjaw's fucking phone tracking system. I don't know how Dartline got it, but our drones just confirmed. Lockjaw is right in the middle of a known Fantomas training ground. We flattened it a few months ago with a few kilotons of explosives, but it looks like they brought it back up. Cockroaches. So, Sev-three. Sosa and his board want me to give you a little more flexibility. It's your op and your call. Do we go in while we have him zeroed here, and strike while the iron is hot and surrounded by other pissed off irons with guns, or do we risk waiting for him to move out and catch him on the road? If you go for him now it's going to be a stealth insertion kind of deal. If we wait we'll be able to come up with a more balls-out solution. Unnnless he finds a way to disappear again."

We really don't know exactly how much of an idea the Fantomas know about if, and how much, this info seizure caught them with their pants down. Our choices are to wait on it and hope they blame something else when we use some of the intel, or try to make maximum use of it sooner before it succumbs to detail-rot.

My read on the political issues is that we're fucked every which way, so it might be safer to be out in the field actually.

"they're going to find out about the leak eventually," 73-6 says. "i'm going in asap."

"Sweet." Monica mashes a couple of buttons and pulls up a 3d view of the surrounding area. "So this place is in the Appalachia foothills, around Old Tennessee. This map is mad outdated, because last time we saw this place we bombed it to the ground, but there were a few freestanding structures that weren't destroyed. The first" she zooms in on a wall "is this. The place used to be a national guard outpost. They put up a thick-as-hell wall during the third civil war."
"was that the water war?"
"The water war was the bible belt war," 63 says. "The third civil was oil."
"oh. right."
"So the last time we hit the place we knocked a sizable hole in the southwest corner," Monica says. "That's probably where the guard presence will be strongest. Patrols are all through the hills around the place, and the wall itself has cameras on the outside and pressure sensors on the in. It's unscaleable. But right here, on the upper western side, there's a hill or two high enough you'll be able to jumpjet or zipline inside."

"And when you're in, Lockjaw is going to be in here." Monica pushes another button and a building fills the screen. "Old command building. Around the top a bunker buster smacked it and took a couple floors out but it's still structurally sound and electricity is still going into it. It's in the center of camp. You're going to have to sneak in unlesssss..."

"unless?" 73-6 crouches and looks at the building. The 3d display shows it whole. He wonders what it looks like now.

"Sosa may be a creep but if he likes you you benefit," Monica says. "I can pull you some backup for this one, 73-6. Limited backup but backup."
"what are my options?"
"Three different possibilities," Monica says. "You can pick one:

"I can get you in touch with the Drowned Kings, a mercenary motorcycle club in the area that the Bureau has in its pocket. They're untrained, loud, and violent, but there's like fifty of them and distractions they can do. Not exactly the most disciplined guys but their chief Arnie is a good guy and they have Bureau-provided weaponry.

"I can give you a personal drone. Stealth-class or combat-class. The stealth one can fly you in and drop you right on top of the building, but it's too lightly armed to support you and stay out of sight, and once they see it it has like no countermeasures. The combat class you won't be able to ride in on without alerting the whole camp, but it has some serious shock and awe on its side."

"I can partner you up with an Agent from DC, who comes highly recommended. Call-number 38-3. He's a stealth and infiltration specialist. He's only one guy, of course, but so are you."

"Absolutely not. Oh, and 73-6: Upstairs says you get a shell upgrade today. I guess Sosa's starting to pull his strings. Go to the armory."
"sweet," says 73-6.

73-6 sets off for the armory.

As he passes the offices, he hears a high, clear scream from Keisha's room.

Use the wire and hacking skills to discretely check the location the local com system last pinged 108-1.

Then having determined she's on the other side of that door, wisely don't interrupt unless you want to be decapitated.

Hey, what happened to our prisoner, I don't think we can get much use or info out of him but if the Agent doesn't work out he will be our stealth guy

73-6 scoots past the door, as aware as ever that while killing is fun and neat, there is a lot he is missing out on.

"This is going to smart," 90-2 says.

"i know," 73-6 says. "just warn me when you staaaa+++ahrrr++++owww"

Choose your upgrade path:

Wetwork: +Finger Guns+ 73-6 can use the magnets already present on his body to forcibly eject his digits off his artificial right hand with the force of a bullet. Every finger on his hand becomes weaponized. The fingers are near-silent. If found and sufficiently undamaged they are re-attachable.

Stealth: +Active Camo+ If 73-6 stays still for 5 seconds, he can fade from sight. The effect ends if he moves.

Hacking: +Master Hacking+ 73-6 gains access to the final tier of hacking skill available. Future hacking upgrades would improve hacking versatility and ease of use.

As awesome as the finger bullets sounds I say go for the hacking upgrade. We already have decent firepower and hacking is so useful.

Man remember way back when we were hiding in bunk beds and stuff? We don't have to do that ever again; we can just stand around wherever and turn invisible and merc people when they go to sweep the room.

Stealth, yo.

as nifty as the other options are, we need to ghost this mission or there won't be enough left of us to make 73-7

Finger guns definitely needs to be the next upgrade after this, but this is a sneaking miss...

I really feel like the utility of these hide-for-X-seconds and become invisible traits is rather limited. A less effective passive camo would probably be better. So with that in mind, Wetwork.

The wetwork is stupid, cripple yourself in the field for the benefit of a five-bullet gunshot? We also know we're going into a place with the Fantomas' best tier of hardware security, I say hax.

I am voting stealth, on the grounds that the next stealth upgrade after this one is probably even better, and (knowing 73-6's luck) might be obtainable before the current mission is over.

He stops by Keisha's room and listens for a second. No sound. He hesitantly knocks.

"Who is it?" Penelope calls.
"sev."
"One sec." Penelope opens the door a crack. "Yeees?"
"we're going after the fantomas paramilitary leader man. it's gonna be all stealthy. you want to come?"
"Jeez, Sev-Three. I would, but I gotta debriefing soon and everything and stealth isn't really my thing. You okay with going Lobo Solitario? Annnd can you explain to Monica?"
"ummm," 73-6 strains his ears and hears ragged breathing behind Penelope. He sees the pleading look on her face. "yeah, ok. i've got other backup anyway. i'll tell her it's not your style."
"Buena suerte!" Penelope says. "Thanks, Sev-Three."
"no problem," 73-6 says. "buena suerte back atcha."

Penelope closes the door.
"Who was that?" Keisha asks, panting.
"73-6," Penelope says. "He's gonna go whack someone."
"Oh." Keisha tries to sit up more and then slumps back down. "Oh my god. Am I gay?"

"If you want to label it anything, label it Pensexual, baby."
Penelope climbs back into bed.
"Are you gonna take these off?" Keisha asks, shaking the handcuffs a little.
"I got 20 minutes left," Penelope says.
"It's only been 10 minutes?"
"Yep."
"When do we stop?"
"When you say Frijoles," Penelope says. "You gonna say Frijoles?"
Keisha swallows. She shakes her head.

"Bacano," Penelope says.

The combat drone would be a good choice if you could be assured of being able to drop in without being noticed falling from the bird. A harrier flying around killing people is about the best distraction you could ask for. You just need to be able to get stealth after insertion.

Your best option though is to go with the agent. Guaranteed skill and reliability, backup if things go lemon shaped. And most importantly, a possible new contact.
