From its very dawn, the darker side of metahumanity had been there. Famously, the many ladies of the night had been registered in the census as "Seamstresses", marking Seattle as a place where everything was permitted from the very start. But some were interested in more honest pursuits, and bringing that darker side to light. Some like Elizabeth, a mysterious woman who seemed to be entered in no databases, who barely existed until she formed the Latex, Leather, and Neon Detective Agency. An Agency that required its members to be futanari, with a boss that was quite adapt in carnal pleasures...even the lightbringers had their darkness.<br><br>Today's case, however, was more cut and dry. After several low paying jobs barely keeping them all afloat, they had scored something a bit more impressive...and lucrative. Elizabeth smiled as she opened up a virtual, video chatroom, streaming out her lovely face in her office to everyone. They had the option of being their physically or virtually, a VR node had been set up, so it was up to them, as long as they were there at 10 AM sharp. "Wonderful to see all my lovely ladies." She said. "We have a real case this time. Something that could result in a great boost to our reputation if successful." <br><br>She waited for the group to confirm their presence before continuing. She was nervous. Anyone could tell, she was very excited. Once they were in, she planned on giving them the briefing...

The flustered bookworm then sat up on the couch and thrust her mind straight into the way she always preferred to communicate if she was actually left with no choice but to talk to other people. Nonetheless, she was once again cutely bothered as she looked upon Rose's personal avatar, never really getting used to those spiders and dark shadows!<br><br>Then again, she herself had the appearance of a cute goat girl. It was supposed to be some sort of "wise goat" thing, but her tastes had accidentally leaked into it to form a rather busty anthro-woman. The thematically-fitting overalls didn't exactly give her the most proper of looks after all. Still, it seemed an answer or some sort of reply was expected of her by her perverse employer. "Wh-What does the case in-involve?" She slowly asked, hoping it was something professional since Elizabeth's excitement always had her wary.

Carefully extracted herself from the sleeping form she was spooning, she stealthily got out of bed. She smiled at the naked female still sleeping. Carly was one of her favourites, then again they all were. They all treated her well. Picking up her clothes from last night, she slipped into the en-suite. Looking into the mirror, she sees a girl of Japanese descent, an almost exact replica of her popular VR porn actress at the moment. Picking up the toothbrush Carly had set out for her she began her morning ritual.<br><br>It was not long before headed into the kitchen and open the fridge door for a juice and some fresh fruit. Carly was well to do and paid well. Letting herself out quietly, she took the lift down. It was not long before she was heading out the door and out into the sun. Just before she headed out, she looks a row of mirrors that decorate the foyer. This time however another face greeted her. Yes, it was hers, at least she thinks it is. Her long platinum long hair, her small porcelain tapered face which had a hint of Norwegian and Asian, but she often wondered if it was really her staring back.<br><br>Yes, it was about time to head to work. Elizabeth had rules and she followed them. She is a good employer and one that helped her in her time of need. It was not too long until she walked into the office. She preferred to come into the office. It was more professional. Besides she did not really have a permanent place to stay. Greeting her boss, she makes herself comfortable as she waited for the rest to join in. ‘Morning Everyone&gt; what do you have for us boss?”

"<br><br>Domino had woken up feeling like both her head and mouth were filled with cotton. A long night of drinking at the bar would do that. But hungover wasn't the only thing Domino was feeling. A tongue was running up and down her hard shaft, Doing a damn fine good job of it too. Domino looked down and saw the blonde tussled head of Nina, a waitress from the bar, giving her time, energy, and mouth to Domino's erect member. The ten inches plus that perv of a quack had given Domino pretty much took deep-throating off the table unless someone had gotten their jaw modded. But the tongue bath she was getting was working just fine.<br><br>"Hey there, kid," said Domino in a voice raspier than usual. Her dry mouth did stop her grabbing her smokes and lighting one up. Nina paused from her own oral fixation to give Domino a smile.<br><br>"Hey back. Sorry but I just couldn't let this morning wood go to waste."<br><br>"Don't apologize," Domino said after exhaling a cloud of smoke. "There are worse ways to wake... oh shit!"<br><br>Domino realized that time it was and quickly, her practically perfect bare breasts jiggling. The sudden motion did her head no good, so the former wagemage slipped on her shades in hopes the dancing lights would go away. It didn't help. Muttering profanity, she backed the vocal command to turn on the VR link. Domino didn't care about avatars or her current state of address. There was one thing she cared about... Nina's tongue wasn't where it was supposed to be.<br><br>"Didn't tell you to stop, kid."<br><br>The waitress wasn't quite as comfortable with being watched as Domino was but she didn't wanted to disappoint the older woman either. She resumed her efforts as Domino logged into the morning meeting<br><br>"You have my attention, boss. Well, most of it."

				<div class="floatleft">(https://i.imgur.com/QH0gNWG.jpg)</div> As one might have expected, Elizabeth was wearing her usual tight body suit. Melanie had chosen to appear physically, while the rest used video calls or VR to appear. Domino, however, got a giggle. "You sure? We can wait until you're done. Though I suppose if we did, I'd be wanting to get Melanie here under the desk..." She smirked. "Please make sure you have headphones in or some way of securing the area. I don't want anyone hearing this that isn't us."<br><br>"As for the job. We're being hired by a manager at the local Mitsuhama office. As it happens, their kid has gone missing. The corp itself assumes the kid is just out for a joy ride on Daddy's credstick, but he hasn't seen any transactions that he can't explain. He's afraid the kid's bolted for some reason, or worse, has been kidnapped. He wants to get out ahead of any potential ransom. See if he can't beat them to the punch." She explained. <br><br>She sent an image of the kid, not a very flattering one, (https://i.imgur.com/qJK7QkE.jpg) but it got the important details across. "He loves VR, as you can see. The goggles are a little strange, but it's one of his most favorite things. If he's not wearing them, he's probably dead." She said. "So. As far as pay goes, we're getting 5,000 nuyen each for actionable information-who has him, where he is, stuff that he can send an extraction team out to do. If we're the ones who bring him in, the contact has promised an additional 5,000 each. So, 10k if we bring him back alive." She said. "And that's each, including me. I have as much a stake in this as you do, so if you need something and your contacts can't provide, I'll see if my network can." Elizabeth smiled and leaned back, waiting for the inevitable, and even inviting it: "Questions? Concerns?" She asked.<br><br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Game Mechanics</div><div class="spoiler_body">Knowledge skills related to Corps or Mitsuhama can be rolled to get an insight into the company.

She certainly felt a lot more like a squeezable mouse than a sturdy goat around so many people! Nonetheless, an adorable blush adorned the flustered bookworm's face as Elizabeth's causal lewdness gave way into her bringing some rather perverse images ot mind with her words. At least the job she began to explain seemed far more serious. <br><br>Especially with the information the dorky tenchnomancer had just managed to find in her browsing once Mitsuhama was brought up. As usual, it quickly made the meek geek chime in with concerns whenever a job meeting occurred. "W-We might be dealing with some more notable thugs than usual. I-It might be likely the manager may h-have upset th-the company's connections...w-with the Yakuza...." She awkwardly pointed out.

Anyway, Kuroi is right, my methods may not be magical in nature, but we might be able to, if we are lucky, gain some invaluable magical and mundane knowledge. Where was he last seen? Someone may have seen something, even if they do not know if they did.”<br><br>Closing her eyes, she wondered if she used to be a lone star operative. She had lost much of her past and any form of electronic search comes up empty after 24 hours have passed. “The case is low on the Lone Star list. The have only put tags on the kid’s and his parent’s SINS, hoping for an outlier to trigger a lead. That means they are not treating it seriously. To have them think like that, perhaps there is a past history of it. Maybe we can ask his friends too, that is if he has any.”<br><br>

				<div class="floatleft">(https://i.imgur.com/QH0gNWG.jpg)</div> "Yes, the Yakuza could be involved. Could also explain why Mitsuhama security forces aren't as interested in this case, they may have received word from the top." Elizabeth said.&nbsp; "Though I am a bit doubtful. As far as we can tell, the kid was a VR junkie and I don't think even the oyabun of our local families would care if the kid trash-talked him while beating his high score." A little joke, but hey. Worth the effort. <br><br>"You'll have to ask about getting into his room. They lived on Mitsuhama territory, so you'll need permission...or need to sneak in. Astrally wouldn't be a good bet-Mitsuhama has a lot of magical security." She pointed out. "Though, trying to get permission might tip someone off that our contact is going off the reservation. It's up to you how you want to do it. I'm just here to give some advice, I guess."

				There was a minor detail being left out of the plan: The vehicle. More specifically, a vehicle dolled up to look like a Whistling Pipes van. After all, they needed their gear, didn't they? Luckily, Elizabeth was prepared. Once the plan was detailed out, they received a message. A van was waiting outside, with Chameleon Coating active to make it look all official. Misha could doll it up by activating the van's internal systems, but this time, she didn't need to worry about the fine details, so no need to worry about how good it looked. Also inside were four blue jumpsuits, since Elizabeth had heard about the plan, and decided to give everyone a suit. <br><br>It was up to them how they approached it, but there was a hotel close to the target site. Of course, the van was also roomy enough, she could just lay down in the back seat, and without windows, no nosy neighbors would see her.<br><br>The neighborhood was indeed nice, though once they were inside, they were expected to broadcast a valid SIN...of course, that only mattered if a drone took a peek at them. They had parking in front of the very nice house that the Mitsuhama manager paid for, and he was even outside to greet them. Can't have cleaners over if you weren't home, right?

				As Melanie shows the badge to the scanner, it throws up an unreadable error. Then, for just a moment, it throws up "Access Denied"-and then Misha is in, able to enter their badges into the database, and the sign flips to access granted. "Ah, this old thing, I keep telling them to upgrade it or at least replace it, it keeps denying my badge too!" The man said, clearly attempting to play a role for the good of anyone who may be watching. Indeed, every detective could see that some neighbors were already looking over their fences and hedges at the new van that clearly didn't belong here...<br><br>Misha could wipe some sweat from her brow. The system nearly caught her, but she was able to get a legitimate security account and stop the system from coming at her on the last possible chance. The older system had some architecture that was hard to navigate. But the team was in, and could distribute themselves appropriately.<br><br>(Note where you are, if you're going inside, staying in the van, etc. I'll detail the son's room when everyone's decided where they are)

				While there were internal cameras, none were connected to Mitsuhama, the manager here had total control over them. This all the manager explained, before continuing. "Well I didn't really notice much of a change. I did notice that he was in VR a lot more, but I just figured he was playing a new game or something. I didn't see anything on the cameras, or any logs of people opening the door. Well, he opened the door, but I should have caught him leaving on the outside cameras. There's just...nothing there." He explained.<br><br>The son's room was your typical VR junkie room, tons of wires and rigs, a full body suit for the full immersion experience, the works. Plenty of devices, all of which could hold some clue to where the kid disappeared to, especially if he did go off on his own like some were suspecting. They were all locked, however, meaning they'd have to get a password somehow...<br><br>There was a watcher spirit observing the room they were in, that Rose managed to spot.

				"I wouldn't call him a child." The man said. "But I see your point. My team is involved in a little bit of simsense tech, so maybe someone could have grabbed him to try and get at some of our stuff? It's supposed to be bleeding edge.

Though, this did open up the possibility that his son could be simsense addicted...<br><br>The watcher spirit continued to keep an eye on things. However, when it spotted Rose's Astral form, which wasn't too difficult, it suddenly booked it. Strange behavior. Perhaps it had been told to run if it saw magic? It wasn't going to any of the neighbors, and the ones trying to peek in weren't magically active, from what Rose could see. A bunch of plain jane auras, with varying levels of disruption depending on how many cybernetics they had installed.

				<strong>Melanie:</strong><br><hr>"Well, they tell me they didn't see anything out of place. Which could mean anything." He said in response to the neighbors. "And yes, please, look around, that's what I've hired ya for." He gave a forced chuckle, clearly for his own benefit, trying to keep himself together. "Unexplained disappearances, usually only when someone pisses off the higher ups. And then it's not so much unexplained as, don't talk about it."<br><br>Her search around the room revealed no struggle, but her idea that he left out a window was correct. Some stuff on one of the nearby desks had been roughly shoved over to let a person step onto it without disturbing anything, but on that same desk she found what looked like a password: "FCH0lk45". It didn't have any significance, it was obviously a rando password generated by a crypto service, but she had access to plenty of systems here, maybe it would let her into the kid's stuff.<br><br><strong>Rose:</strong><br><hr>She was, luckily, able to manifest away from any prying eyes. It was worth noting, the house, while well secured on physical and matrix fronts, had minimal magical security. Not even any Awakened plants to prevent astral entry. For shame.<br><br><strong>Dominia:</strong><br><hr>One neighbor, a crotchety looking old lady-you know, that kind on every block that knows everything going on because she can't resist sticking her nose in everything? That one. That lady laughed as soon as Dominia mentioned associates willing to help. "Knew there was somethin' more than just a cleaning company around." Some other neighbors, however, didn't take to kindly to this. "Stuff it, Doris." A younger woman said. "So um, what are you two cleaning in there? Specializing in pipes, I guess?" The younger woman asked. It was clear there was some suspicions, and Dominia might need to play crowd control here...

Returning to what she found on the desk, she starts to systematically use the technology left behind by the kid, she was in no way a computer whiz, but with the password, she hopes to find out more about what had happened to the kid. <br><br>OOC: what rolls do I need?
