"You know, it wouldn't hurt to set up a dummy business to hide some of our activities...Launder our money, that sort of thing...Thats a good idea there, Four-eyes. First good thing I've heard come outta your mouth so far..."

"EUUUH" The sound sounded like an old buzzer "It's the SECOND good thing that came out of my mouth, the first being not putting all our eggs in one basket, which idea you strongly agree on. Good thing I'm here to keep tabs huh?"

"Well, you know, I thought we'd go wid' sumpin' a bit edgier. Like, "Da Skeleton Krewe" or some crap like dat, but if you slags wanna go wid' da pro' route, dat's cool too. Just to warn ya, 'dough, I tried da "just biz," "Ima pro" ting for a while, and it didn't work for me 'den. But still, a name's just a name. It ain't like it matters dat much."
"And about da dummy corporation--yeah, we can do dat. Like, register da warehouse or whatever under some phony name that links to udder corps like a big shell game. I like it. I'll make sure to ask about dat too."

"Yah, maybe have a couple offshore accounts, in a couple different countries. We get paid to one company. It shuffles to the second, which then pays our company which pays us in salaries, bonuses and expenses....Hmm...Yah. We need a decker on tap hahaha..."

"Yeah...or a SIN too..." Four-eyes flicked the ash into the glass, looking lost in thought "Now, I've been thinking for a second there, having a nice dummy Corp is nice, but what about protection? anybody knows a place where we can get the local street kings on our side?"

"Well, if da place is in a good enough area dat we don't need street 'tugs, 'dat'd be an option too. But da offshore accounts would be too much, I 'tink. I don't plan to keep much money in da account for da group--just enough for rent, travel expenses, and udder expenses. Da bulk of da cred will be going to us individually."
"But here's my to-do list:
1) talk about real estate and get a warehouse, garage, sumpin. 2) look into security system 3) set up bank account 4) talk to local street gangs and arrange protection
Now, remember, if we're going to set up an account wid' all our names on it, all da signatories is gonna hafta have a valid SIN. I'm planning on dumping a load of cash on a new SIN soon, so dat's fine for me, but whaddabout da rest of ya?"
((BTW, except for the bank account, all of that stuff can be lumped into a general lifestyle. It'll be up to a GM to figure out how much it will all cost together.))

"Well, can we afford a place in a nice district?" Angel asks. If they could, it was one less thing to worry about."
Angel listens to the list, then throws in her two cents. "I'd add that we probably ought to add a fifth item: Arrange SINs for those without them. If it's going to be a requirement, then it should be a group project, so the quality is consistent. As for the rest of the list, I know Seattle pretty good, know the gangs, and I'm a fairly decent negotiator, so I can help with that end, but I'll definitely need armed back up for that. On the other hand, I can clean up pretty good if you want me to deal with the suits and negotiate for a place."
(Yeah, as I recall in the RL game, the GM gave us the place for High Lifestyle, and we bought a year's worth of payments.)

"Yeah, we could all use fake SINs, but do you know how much dat costs? I mean, I'm planning on dropping a small fortune on a new cred stick and identity. If SINs get paid for, I 'tink it should be an individual 'ting, 'cos spirits know I ain't got da cred to pay for it."
"And also, I was 'tinkin' about group expenditures and all dat. I 'tink weapons would be all up to da individuals, but would you like to add ammo and 'nades to da list of stuff da group account pays for?"

"Hmm, SINs...Never thought of that, but we'd need them for laundering the money and showing that we are at least supposedly legally employed...Peaches do you have a contact that can hook us up with those? I'm a probably gonna need one or two myself...
I like the personal weapons thing, and agree with the ammo and munitions being added. I'm not so fond of having to pay off some gangers for security, but if we set up a couple of backup safehouses, that sort of scenario would work well. I think a nicer neighborhood would be good for our main office...Anyways, my two cents..."

"Yeah 'could use a SIN right about now" He shifted his eyes toward Angel from behind his sunglasses, weakly smiling "I agree with the guns and ammo deal..We each got our own piece, 'least 'sure hope so..but maybe after a while, 'have a couple o' loose lead-thrower 'round our hideouts..you never know when some two-bit beat pig's gonna ruin your day and take your piece, 'ya know?..Oh and love the main office in some classy part of town idea, that means we'll need a secretary then?

"Group project doesn't necessarily mean group expense." Angel replies. "But the SINs should be arranged as a group project, because one bad SIN could expose the rest to scrutiny. I should have the cred to cover a decent fake SIN. "
She considers Peaches idea. "I'd agree, personal weapons, but the corp covers the ammo. "
At Four-Eyes last remark, Angel looks at him. Folding her arms, she says "Sorry, but I don't take dictation."

Angel looks at Four Eyes and narrows her eyes at his remark. Oh, she soo wanted to zap him. One little Mind Bolt wouldn't hurt him too badly, but it would probably get her bounced off the team. She decided to behave, and say nothing.

Four-Eyes crossed looks with Angel's narrowing eyes "Pff..'was only a joke you know, you should learn to brighten up a bit...Just 'cause you're the only woman here doesn't make you automatically the secretary y'know."

Angel looks at Four Eyes, folds her arms and turns away from him.
