Vincent nods, "Just as she said. Use your teeth if you must, but try to avoid going full vore in front of the crowd. They want a bloodsport, not an eating competition."

"Killing, as long as you don't do it after you win, is probably fine. In other words, if they are down and out already, killing is probably not okay. But if they are still fighting and you manage a killing blow, that's just fighting."
"Your human aversion to eating each other is stupid. We are just bags of meat after all. I accept those conditions though. I can have fun in other ways." Massari began stretching herself.

"Of what is needth of me compatriots?" Scylla asked.

"Intellectually, you are not wrong. But humans react to things emotionally, and those are the things that become social norms." Breach then looks at Vincent. "Do we need two fighters? I don't think so. But there must be something Scylla can do."

"Scylla will be essential in helping to provide a certain amount of needed charm to for our end of the operation. Well," He starts, looking dryly at the woman state of dress, or more the lack of it. "Provided she abides by the 'No shirt no shoes no entry' policy. Same for you Massari, though I suppose you could get way with being topless in the arena. Might even draw a wider audience that way."

It was a wonder as to why a solid half of this 'team' was apparently nudist.

Scylla sighs. "I can abide by your... clothing desires. At least until thine job ist over."

"Are there events happening now?" Breach asks. "Or do we need to wait before we sent them in?"

"I don't need to be 'sent in'. I shall simply go to the man who runs the fighting, disfigure him, and then he will see how good a fighter I am." Massari examined her claws while she spoke casually.

Vincent sighs, "No, no. That'll simply spark a fight with everyone in the building. Let me scout around, see if there's anyone new trying to get into the ring... Whatever their death wish is for doing so."

He reorients his spirits, taking stock of the area around the ring for a lead.

ooc: Sorry, it's weird how this one always ends up the by the wayside Nowhereman.

ooc: No problem. I keep up on this well enough for the three of us :)

Your spirit watches Quinn walk back into the hallway on the left. Remembering the layout of the warding, you direct your spirit to watch from the arena, where the warding is weakest. A few seconds later Quinn comes into the arena area and makes a beeline to his office. The warding here is slightly stronger creating a strange ethereal echoing effect.

"Margo! Those damned idiots are going to disrupt our fights!" A woman stands up straight. She is in her late twenties, brown and blonde hair, with tattoos on her arms and neck.

"Last nights fight was better than the last one."

"Are you kidding me?! Shocker was playing with him. He barely moved. I've seen that man run down a car!"

"I have been trying to get better talent, but it's hard when the consequences of failure are so dire. The only people who will fight him at this point are druggies, and debtors who are so far into debt that their options are permanent crippling vs death."

"Look. Just go to the club. Find whoever is the most promising fighter there. Offer them however much you need to get them in that ring by 2PM. Do this for me while I work on getting these workmen to stay away from our patrons."

The conversation quickly came to a close and Margo began to walk out the front. She disappeared from your view briefly. A few minutes later she walks out to the front of the building. She says something to a guard on the way out, smiling as she makes a beeline to the south. Following her path, you finally watch as Margo arrives at 'Bags and Knuckles'. A low rent fight ring a quarter mile from the casino.

He opens his eyes. "I have a location. Everyone, suit up. We've prepared enough as is. We'll get her into the ring while the rest of us will be taking point in the casino. "

A wave of his hand and his oldest spiritual slave brings over his scarf to delicately wrap around Vincent's neck. The thought of making it just a little tighter would never occur, all hope for true freedom in death vanished years ago.

"Are you two dressed yet?" Breach says to the aliens. "What you wear during the fight is probably up to you. But before the fight, you need them to think you are normal."

[OOC: Sorry for the late reply. Wonky internet stuff]

"Alternately, from what you told me, they might want an entertaining battle. I can think of little less entertaining than battling without clothing." Massari offered.

"I am dressed appropriately" Scylla said. While what she wore would never make it past a parent, cleavage being far to visible, it was the most appropriate thing she had worn since your meeting.

"I thought I said, during the battle, do what you want. But before and after the battle, I don't think clothing is optional." Breach says to Massari before looking at Scylla. "That is considered risque' but there's probably nothing wrong with it at a casino."

"Yes, in fact for some reason many men seem to like it when a woman's clothing is "revealing" rather then 'utterly non-existent.' Leaves too little for one's imagination if it goes too far I guess. I wouldn't know." He picks up the rest of their stuff and starts to pocket it, before passing his sketched map off to Breach. "See if that eye of yours can fill in the blanks once we're close enough to the casino. Spirits can be warded, but I believe you mentioned just how damn powerful your implant was."

"We'll see," Breach says. "Or I will. And that assumes they don't ban me from the place because of my built in electronics."
