You think _you_ can keep me. I am the tide that swallows the shore.” %% ## Notes - [[The Docks]] » Blackpier - deezy wants to do this while on transport - Looking for a new vehicle » [[Red Torque]] » 6 - deezy: Something bulky, box-truck… to crash - SlRvb: Mystery Machine - One they are willing to part with - It's loud and obvious - Prep: - Una wants to know about car and route - Time: 0400h, code word "waterbed" - Called shot: make it happen at the alley way - Both going loud - Dice: - +1d Bold & daring - Not super complex… smashing a car into a thing. - +1d Targeting a vulernability - -1d They're prepped - +1d Ally: Scurlock will be there - -1d Enemies interfering - -1d Tier - +1d District - = 2d = 2 3s! - They prematurely hit the vehicle, but the hearse goes off a bridge and into the water. - Hix/Moth dives into the water - Tarot card reading - Past — The Tower - "A proud house struck by lightning. What was built high has been split, and its stones scattered." - **Meaning:** %%The Rowan–Strangford split in Vesper’s family history, and the long-reaching consequences of that old feud.%% - Present — The Hanged Man - "The one in the center is bound, yet the world turns around them. The rope is choice, the rope is fate." - **Meaning:** %%Vesper’s current role — apparently passive, but central — and the way she’s being maneuvered by the Strelai, Scurlock, and others.%% - Future — The Moon - "The road ahead is silver-lit and shifting. Faces will change. You will see your enemy’s smile — and your ally’s shadow." - **Meaning:** %%The coming double-cross, Padeen’s reveal, and the blurred lines between threat and protector (Setarra, Scurlock, Rowans).%%
