"Alright everybody, chill da fuck out." He glances at Angel. "Dat goes for you, too. Now look, people. We're here to come toge'tter as a group. Horsing around is fine--I like a good gag as much as any of you--but all of 'dis shit is just creating bad blood, and a team can't work wid' half of its members opposed to da udders."
He looks to Four-Eyes now. "Jokes and jibes is one 'ting, but you don't know 'dese people yet. Hell, I don't even know most of 'em, but da fact is dat if we're going to function as a unit, we gotta put all dese petty differences aside and decide dat we're actively gonna work toge'tter." He expands his speech to the rest of the group. "We're gonna be trusting each udder wid' our lives. Da least you can do is not give someone else a reason to frag your ass over."

"Ok I am sorry to have wasted anyones time I believe I have seen enough I do not think this is for me. I understand this never happened and I don't remember faces have an enjoyable life."
At this point Nottingham gets up and heads out the door, when he opens the door there is another elf that seems was just about to be entering the room aswell he passes by him not saying a word and is gone.

Four-Eyes snarled at Angel's response "Like you got any skills with your hands..". His mood changed when Peaches took his side and dished out Angel, but again, 'breeder got picked on.
"Hey Peaches, it's only talking, I know when the lead starts flyin' it's us versus them..and I know 'them even less than the people here" He motioned to the group " Ork, dwarf, troll and yes, even elf, as long as they're on my side of the fence, I'll keep my eyes on them."
He looked at the male elf leaving the room " 'Guess he couldn't stand the heat..or he was looking for that picture-perfect team.." and watches as another elf came in, one he met a few times "Frag....Keep it cool Jack now.."
"Quick" Four-Eyes tried his best to comb his hair back the way they were before the water, giving his watch a quick glare " 'Forget about the time, 'know you're busy at work, sit down we were at getting a building and gear costs." His tone of voice was courteous, friendly even, he was not the same man that came-in a few minutes ago.

"Hello Four-Eyes glad to see a familiar face hope life has been fair if nothing else."Quick grins at Four-Eyes"So this is the meeting I take it?"
As he continues to talk he walks over and sits across from Angel and beside Four-Eyes. Turning towards Peaches he asks."Hope it's ok I was detained but I am here an ready to see where this is heading."

"Yeah Quick" Four-Eyes shook his jacket, small drops of water flying about. "life's nothin' else..." he checked to where the water got on him, but stopped when he heard Quicksilver's question. "No Quick, this is the local farmer's circle and we were about to make pecan pie.....of course it's the meeting"
He sat down besides Quick, taking the plastic glass with him as an ashtray.

Angel looks at Peaches and shrugs. She's made her apology and was already sitting down, listening intently to what he had to say. She watches one fellow elf leave, and another arrive just as quickly. She nods to the man, smiling at him.
She'd made her suggestions and said her peace. For now, she was content to listen...

Wheels is stunned by the rapid turn of events. What had begun as a nicely organized meeting of the minds had quickly degenerated into a gun weilding, knife totting debaucle mostly centered around the one that Peaches was refering to as Four-Eyes. So far the man had been there about 5 minutes and had fragged off both Peaches and the elf woman known as Angel, scared off the other elf, What was his name? Nottington? Nottingham???...Something like that..., jumped up and waved both a gun and a knife around and generally disrupted the whole meeting. Sure Peaches stood by this guy, but drek, Wheels didn't like the level of professionalism shown so far. In fact, Bobby was giving serious thought to hitting the bricks himself...
"Unh....Listen...Peaches. I know this fragger is your Omae and all, but drek man. Can you try and control him? He is making the natives restless." In fact, several others in the restaurant were openly staring thru the semicolored glass windows which separated this semi closed off area from the rest of the restaurant. The raised voices weren't helping either. "I gotta tell ya. If this joker is what you call professional," Bobby stands and throws a thumb over his shoulder towards Four-Eyes, "Then I might just take after our other elven friend there, and walk. I'm gonna need some kind of assurances from you Peaches, that you can keep your gun-tottler here on a short leash. That kind of drek is gonna get us fragged..." Bobby leans briefly on the table to hear their leaders reply.
"In fact, the only thing I have seen this guy do right is agree with me that all our assets in one location is a BAD idea...So, what are you gonna do Mr. Bossman? Otherwise I am going to have to walk away right now too."

Peaches nods at Quicksilver. "Yeah, 'dis is da place. Glad you could make it." (just assume you're filled in on everything going on already.)
Peaches looks at Wheels as the dwarf continues his speech. When he finally finishes, Peaches sighs, rubbing his face with his hands. "Yeah, I admit he's a little rough around the edges. And yeah, he can't talk to women for shit, but he's good wid' a gun--when he's not tryin' to make a show out of it. He's got some prejudices dat need to be worked out, but he can be a good asset to 'dis team. I'll keep him in line, trust me." Peaches shoots F-E a meaningful glance before turning back to Wheels.
"But I agree--we don't need to put all our eggs in one basket. Your whirly birds need to be in a different locale, and we all should have our separate dosses, unless you just can't afford it. In our down time, I'm sure only one or two people will be at da safehouse, but da safehouse isn't supposed to be for a group hangout. It's where we go to plan our runs, prep, and hide out while da heat dies down. I don't mean for all of us to suddenly jump into da same house togetter like da fraggin' Real World or whatever, but I do expect us to trust each udder and give each udder da benefit of da doubt, since we'll be depending on each other to get out of some pretty serious drek."

Four-Eyes stood still while Peaches was explaining to The Dwarf how he acted "He doesn't know drek..except for the show part haha!". As Peaches gave him a glare, Four-Eyes simply nodded, like he agreed on Peaches keeping him in line, and listened to what the ork had to say.
[whisper=Wheels]Yeah, i still call you "the Dwarf" becasue we haven't been introduced yet. [/whisper]

"Alright, but if the drek hits the fan cause of him, AND we survive, we might have to deal with it afterwards..." Wheels gives Four-Eyes a down the nose stare, which results in the human getting a good look at the dwarf's nostril hair.
Peaches continues on with his talking and planning, but Bobby makes a mental note to speak with Peaches later on in private.
[whisper=Peaches,Emyaj]Wheels would like to get Nottinghams number or LTG off of Peaches since Bobby figures Peaches called the meeting and so would have said contact information. Maybe Wheels will be in touch. Always good to have a friendly Mage on the side....[/whisper]
Good, the leader is listening to reasonable suggestions. The helies can stay where they are for the time being. I might make the americar available for general use for the time being though. That oughta be a good enough show of faith. Bobby conjectures as the meeting continues...
"Okay, so, so far, we have agreed to toss in 15% of group earnings towards a maintenance fund, which includes, a doss or safehouse or headquarters, as well as cover incidental expenses for any given run. For the time being, until we get a couple runs under our collective belt, we are going to be supplying our own gear and covering our own expenses. We will be taking contracts from anyone who will hire us, and we will not be discriminating against team members based on race or sex. That about cover what we have covered so far?" Looking around the table, Wheels sees the others considering his summary.
"What next?"

Angel looks at Peaches. She sure hoped he could keep that drek-head in line. He wanted Wards. Hmm, she hadn't gotten quite that far in her studies.
"Maybe. I'll have to talk to one of my Contacts about it." Maybe the Talismonger could help her out with the right spells.
Peaches then asks for questions.
"I'm going to assume after the 15% payment to the group, all the team members get an equal share."
