Right on the heels of Jynx, Loretta and Emma's entrance was D and with him in tow was Darion, the shady looking character who people were calling "Tony" or "Tone" and Emma. Everyone nodded to each other as glaces passed over the room, everyone trying to size up the other and find their own "comfort" place within the office.<br/><br/>Not wanting to make Becca feel any more off-balanced as she was, Fanya chose to remain standing to address the group as the door closed behind D who naturally remained silent but nodded a friendly smile at everyone he head met before.  With that, everyone who was suppose to be here had arrived now. Fanya knew it was time to begin...<br/><br/>Her eyes draw across the crowd, all dressed in the "Sunday's best" outfits, she smiled at that, not in a seductive way but with a sense of almost.. relief that she may have chosen to work with some of the best the wasteland had to offer, the fact that they even considered this moment worthy of a new pair of clothes.<br/><br/>"<span style="color: purple">My, it would seem that for the first time in my life, I feel somewhat under-dressed for the occasion...</span>" Rather than laugh herself, she let everyone laugh at her remark and at herself, well, at least those who were in the mood to laugh at her self-depreciation.<br/><br/>"<span style="color: purple">Thank you everyone for coming so late today but I felt that we had a lot to talk about and the sooner that we did the better for everyone involved. I also believe it's time for everyone here to come clean. I know this doesn't involve most of you but does involve me as I vow to also come clean on a great deal of things tonight.</span>"<br/><br/>She paced the floor as she typically did, pursing her lips on occasion and looking up, thinking of her words carefully as she normally had. Her ability to put this motley crew together would make or break the success of their future endeavors, including their own personal ones.<br/><br/>Gone was her natural sexual exuberance. The dice had to be rolled... now. Everyone needed to place their final bets and show their hand.<br/><br/>"<span style="color: purple">As you are already aware, I've been tracking the one here that you know as 'Duos' for some time now. At that time, all I knew was that I was tracking some lost 'Project 19'. What I knew about this Project 19 was that it was some secret program by an even more secret organization. A shadow org that seemed to have reaches into the many organizations that already exist today in the wasteland. I can combed through the evidence, I realized that pieces of the chess board were moving in strange ways. Organizations that we know for being ruthless removing spheres of influence in strange areas. NCR, Ceasar's Legion and the like. So while I established my own business here in dealing information to those same orgs, including the ones who have established themselves here, I realized that I was playing into their hand as well. Until I came upon some stolen data sheets and records on this Project 19. I knew that, with the information I was able to recover, I needed to know more.</span><br/><br/>"<span style="color: purple">I hired a few of you, Annie for your skills as a field medic and more. Black Tony for your... forgive me for the dramatics, 'shadow' world contacts, and Doctor Simon for your elaborate scientific skills, but I knew it wasn't enough. When D and team eventually ran into Duos so close to our home and seemingly so close to Emma Starr, I knew there was more to learn here than just what Duos is or turned out to be. I was making progress on IDing the man who was responsible for recovering Project 19, in which I understood that Emma Starr could help identify that man. Which would naturally lead me to being able to help Duos figure out who he really is someday and possibly even go further in identifying what this shadow organization is about and their goals and purpose.</span><br/><br/>"<span style="color: purple">But before we can really begin to help Duos and hunt our shadow organization, first we need to come to an agreement with our situation with Emma, Darion and Loretta.</span>"<br/><br/>She then looked at Emma, Loretta and Darion to make their final bets.<br/><br/><br/>((Sorry for the fucklong but now is going to be a lot of back and forth dialog which should be rather short))<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
