(Clarification Requests: 1 - what time of day/night is it? 2 - How long until the boys have to clock in at work?)
Grunyon whispers, "West 76th, huh? That's maybe a block away from the Natural History Museum and Central Park? I'm up for a Health and Welfare check."
He pauses to listen to see if anyone in earshot repeats any of those words (Perception 3 + Earbud Audio 1, dice rolls 3,3,5,2), and kicks off a Matrix search for anything unusual that has been recently reported in the area (Data Search 4 + software Browser 4, dice rolls 4,4,6,6,1,5,6,4).
Then continues, still whispering, "So what is the time frame on this? Two days? Ten minutes ago?"
Mr. X will clearly figure out that there is no laser link on the comm that Grunyon is using, and will have to shake his head in wonder at the newbies he has found himself stuck with. "Oh, I get it, now. 'Block' is short for 'Blockhead'."
