For a brief second, Block imagines the one liners Ace will be trying out on Leeson's "girly gurl" chummer. He involuntarily pales a bit and then suppresses the thought to focus on the more important bits - we're being offered money to find someone. Maybe the same someone, maybe not.
"Sure, I got no problem with taking a gander for someone. I am curious, though - you say you can hear her, but not see her? What does she sound like?"
If he's willing to cast a low power audible illusion for her sound, Block prompts him to do so. If he has a picture, or can put her face into the illusion, that would be nice, too. Any information he is willing to share (i.e. when she was last seen, her name, picture, et cetera) would be really useful to know.
As he's casting, Block pays attention to what he does in order to cast that spell. Block is *always* looking for pointers about how to use the power of magic.
When the message from X and Tiny comes in, Block says to Leeson, "Ohhh kay. Huh. It looks like things got really messy, really fast. Someone has stirred up a hornet's nest of heavily armed people."
Block adds, "Where is a good place to watch the fireworks, without actually being in the middle of them?"
Almost without thinking about it, Block checks his medkit - making sure it is ready in case it is needed. |
