He sends a message through the chat app Nobunaga has set up.

::Someone grab my shotgun on the way out.::

It's right by Kurtz.

Echo overhears the interplay between you and Celestine. Mostly your words, not hers. She was making him think...things. Question things.

But you...that makes him smile.

Echo positions himself between the pending clash of sharp things and Peregrine P. Olveira and Eir Ascle. Left forearm shield up, sonic disruptor charged and ready to blast if he has a clear shot at Celestine.

Peregrine P. Olveira and Eir Ascle-

"You got it? Is it done?" He's not looking at you. He's focusing on The War In Heaven that's unfolding before them.

**Northeast section of the Pains**

Breaking camp again..

We have made it through most of the hundreds of pasangs across the Plains, avoiding the open parts and sticking to the base of the ta-thassa mountain range..

The men are breaking camp again as they have at dusk every day that we've been here.. I am currently going through a big pile of goods from a caravan that was raiders this morning .. My men will get anything split among them that has not real value other than personal effects , and anything that will fetch a good price I will sell soon..

I look over at the woman Paesyn and wonder what I am doing with her again .. Seeing the shackle on her ankle and the length of chain attached to a large spike driven in the ground.. I don't usually have thoughts about it , not even considering the subject .. The thoughts of the Tuchuk , who never made their move , or couldn't find us , my plans about what lays ahead, the well being and adventure of the men that follow me now , and this damn curse .. The pain is constant now and I can never sleep through the day ..

.. But now.. Times like this I think that .. Even though I Know I need her , maybe I should just let her go .. Again..

Naw ..

I use a shovel and part of a bucket of waste water to smother and douse the fire..

yes.. i love the toy myself..

She sighed in relief as the EMBED took on the brain. She let the body roll back. She gently closed the EMBED and gave it a second to come up to pressure.

She slung the EMBED onto her back.

.:CLEAR! Let's go!:.

And with that she was RUNNING like a fox with her tail on fire.

.:Nobunaga, lead me to safety:.

"Did I miss everybody?"

Looks around a bit.

A bit scared & fascinated at the same time, ya know?

"Ohh!...
Oh!!
OHHH!!!

Each thrust causing her to respond orally,
feeling herself getting closer to climax

The wings remove themselves from the situation, dropping her onto her face with all the force she was pushing against them with. She catches herself on her hands and knees, then looks up at you when you address Dylan.

She frowns deeply. She might not know exactly what you're getting at... But given how she was raised and where she worked before fleeing to Night City she can't help but have a strong suspicion.

"So, what, you want us to just abandon all safety in order to join your crusade? If we don't deliver, things are going to get a whole lot worse for all of us. We'd be pretty useless for ANY crusade at that point."

Steps in here with a smile.

"Hello again, laurelynn."

Nods politely to both you and Neruda Bruise.

"Hello again, Neruda."

it's a good thing I'm not a mind reader of such deflating comments
pinching those perfect ass cheeks as my hands hold you in place
hips moving now, thrusting in and out of your willing pussy
a bow, skillfully playing your violin

EMBED links up...

Processing...

Aligning...

Electrical Impulses Engaged...

For all intents and purposes, Kurtz's body is now dead.

His brain is operating completely independently of his mortal coil now.

you seem to really like the toy

"OH MY!!
OHHHHHH!!
Squirming a little,
realizing my feet are no longer on the cold concrete floor,
my back pressed against the cold steel bars,
Your thick shaft inside me,
deep
It feels much bigger than it looked

(wink)

"Why don't you tell them what Militech, the FIA will do with this information, the way leverage is always used?!"

Once again intercepted, Celestine whirled toward your approach, bringing the flamberge up diagonally across as a means of mechanical advantage rather than a weapon, necessarily.

And with you in melee, those wings retreated from Victoria Forsythe and hovered overhead, hesitating as it couldn't find a good angle by which to affect the struggle productively.

"You add words to their profane vocabulary, when the language of corruption must be silenced once and for all!"

It made no sense for her to be able to test your strength, it was like she contained an unconventional power source within her that groaned within her mechanized joints, suffused a blue glow across her body and she didn't even appear as though she was looking at you in specific. Like she just stared straight ahead, like she wasn't even using her own eyes to see.

It's their insurance policy.

Vasquez, the dutiful spider-bot, starts twitching and flickering as the mag-bomb is attached to their underside. The magnetism just from the repulsor cores is affecting their systems.

"Stay on the target. Within 15 feet. Strike when I order." He gives the bot its command structure. And it awkwardly skitters away with the payload.

Echo rises back up to his feet. Too close quarters for the last incendiary, black foam, or the gallium/magnetite shells. So the M-79 hangs by its strap at his side.

Instead...the circular forearm shield unfolds and extends from his left bracer. Bending outward like an umbrella caught in the wind.

Waiting for his moment on Celestine...

Sorry, still here. It's like standing cats, trying to get the dogs to do what they need to

(step)mom?

Uummm
I guess...
still touching it...
just looking up at you...

Almost... we're almost... Then you fell over. She flinched. Oh dude!

You seemed fine. The good news was... nothing bounced the brain! YAY!! She had a sort of strange obsession to shake him, like she was trying to get jelly out of a jar. She sort of had to keep telling herself. "Don't shake it. Don't shake it."

NPC Overseer

She gently used a probe to keep the black box nestled against the brain. She had to go slow. If she tore any if the internal tissue you'd die so fast she could do nothing. It was a strange moment. She doesn't usually wish she could pray.

EMBED took on the strain. Cupping the brain like it's own little skull. She was testing the blood leaving the brain, making sure that it was where she wanted it. She adjusted Miguel to force more oxygen into his body. She watched as EMBED started to link up with the brain and take over it's medical needs.

So cluse.
