Jane is pushing the timeline up a bit, but part of the debt that Dr. Temple owes Taryn involves her partying at The Pit.<br/>Bewitched - John is offering something in return for a Debt. Frank can accept, decline or counter.<br/>ihinka - Blaine wanted the fight to submission - which would have been interesting if it had gone the other way. Now Carlos is submitting to the superior Alpha.<br/><br/><hr/>The loud crack of Carl's arm breaking echoed. Fight Club has some weird hybrid of magic and or technology because everyone in the Club could hear the arm breaking. Additionally, the fight appeared closer for those on the upper level than it should be.<br/><br/><strong>"Stay down, boy, lest I break something more than just your arm!"</strong>Blaine warned in a deathly tone, belied by the sweetness of her New Orleans accent. Blaine wasn't consciously aware, but she used the same inflection and tone of voice that Loup Garrou.<br/><br/>Carl called on his Wolf in an attempt to heal himself and get back in the fight. However, Carl's Wolf had enough. What started as a partial change became complete as Carl shifted into his full wolf form. This shift did heal the damage to his arm, which was now a wolf leg.<br/><br/>However, there was no fight left in the Wolf. The Wolf slunk over to Blaine, rolled onto its back, and began whining - a submissive gesture. Blaine felt the magical wards that had sealed off the Fight Ring release. The fight was over, although the question now was - what was Blaine going to do with Carl?<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u">Ring Side with Frank</span><br/><br/>One of the burly bearded Russians growled to a Hell Hound beside him,<strong>"This is what happens when you send a boy to do a man's job. You should have sent a snatch team and grabbed her. Instead of an in-road, you have an even bigger threat. She cannot live out the night."</strong>If looks could kill, Blaine would be in serious trouble given the looks she was getting from the combined Hell Hounds and Russians.<br/><br/>John pulled Frank aside,<strong>"It looks like Blaine has won the skirmish only to be at risk of losing the battle. What's it worth to you to get out of this mess?"</strong><br/><br/><span class="bbc_u">Private Office with Jane and Taryn</span><br/><br/><strong>"Impressive,"</strong>Jane told Taryn,<strong>"The pawn has become a knight or perhaps a rook. She will be a target in the unfolding fight, but her positioning denies one of the Factions access to her territory."</strong>Jane ran her hand down one of Taryn's legs.<strong>"The question is not if, but how and where they come after her."</strong>Jane smiled at Taryn,<strong>"For me, the question is somewhat academic, but your Club is in her territory. You could become merely collateral damage, or perhaps even the target of their reprisal."</strong><br/><br/>Jane's eyes twinkled; Taryn remembered this twinkle from the past. It was when she came up with some devious plan and frequently a plan that involved some danger to Taryn,<strong>"You and must consummate our deal quickly. I know someone who might - for a price - be willing to host a Demon. I'll have her come to your Club tonight. I advise you not to negotiate too long, as having a Demon Lord vacationing in Vegas will add to the Chaos."</strong>Taryn's eyes flashed red for a few seconds.<strong>"Similarly, I suggest you reach out to Dr. Temple tonight. If you can close the deals tonight, you and Blaine will be in a stronger position when they decide to move on your tomorrow."</strong><br/><br/><hr/><div align="center">Sometimes it takes a Brick (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=345659.0) <br/>We've Got a Problem (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=344700.0)  <br/>Characters (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=344531.0) <br/>Game Palette (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TQjkX1IbaF79Bcze6X7lX2ynGcwkx4AukKLXuqPe8WA/edit?usp=sharing)<br/>Urban Shadows Cliff Notes (https://docs.google.com/document/d/10Wjn-Pim2L0qUYcSCW7z6HzDZO0O5_1UQVbg1QWcGLc/edit?usp=sharing)<br/></div>
