Dame Mitra ap Eiluned is doing a rather mundane thing, she's sharpening a blade. The whet stone flicks against the steel

"Yo, Moony!" Tweak approaches the Eiluned, but pauses at the scraping sound of the blade on stone, arms going a bit tighter around Shuri.

"Yes?" She keep sharpening

A frown. "Th'fuck you doin'? 'Spectin' some attack?"

"Blades need to be kept sharp" She raises a brow "But no I..." She notices how close the mother is holding the baby "You're going to make her think swords are bad." But she sheathes her blade

"Huh?" Tweak glances down. "Oh. Din't even realize...." She bounces Shuri a little bit, reassuringly for both the baby and herself. "Lissen, Moony...I gots t' go talk to some assholes, an' I want Crawley wit' me, an' Greasemonkey too, so, uh...somebody gotta watch th' baby. You in?"

"Watch the.." She looks startled then, "I"m sorry I'm not a ..." /Shuri gurgles adorably distracting the Eiluned/ Who then snaps out "I mean, surely others, one of the boggans..."//A grin, or is it gas?//"You ..you want to trust me with her? For..how long? NOt saaying yes"

"I'm figgerin' hour, mebbe two. That way, they try to assassinate me? We leave a bit of time for th' ass-kickin' they gonna get in response." A glance down at Shuri, who is being absurdly cute. "She done bin changed and fed, so you ain' gotta worry 'bout wipin' shit or whippin' out a tit." She holds the baby out to Mitra.

"Oh fine" SHe takes the baby "But I'm really not taht good with.."/Shuri giggles as she's held and touches the sidhe's ear tip

Nec says "mmm who the fuck knew she'd be useful"

Tweak smirks. "No corruptin' my baby, Moony, or I kick yer ass, too." Then a nod to Nec. "Le's go. Bye, babygirl!"

Nec nods, looks at Mooney "ANd careful around my brat wid your sharp ass sword" He checks his ammo in his gun and walks off

Tweak might like to imagine Shuri gave just a little wave

It was maybe more like a power-to-the-commoners fist, but yeah.

Oh definitely that then.

They collect Symond, and brainstorm about what boggan crafter to enlist as another witness.

"Well, everyuone know blasty your guy so not sure if that work or not" Symond says

"Ah, what th' fuck. Sure. Bianci-bitch gonna have her own in her back pocket, too."

The grump was working on a fuel mix, but for THIS, happy to help "Understand, it's Franz who drove a lot of boggans to her..."

"Yeah, yeah. Don' matter. There only one Cooperative, an' I be in charge of it, so she gonna give back what she done stole."

"How we going to make her?" Symond wants to know

Nec pats his gun.

THe boggan frowns "No no, we need to find a away to make her realize she'll lose a lot more than she'll gain if she doesn't, but let's not kill anyone"

A deep breath, with a scowl. "I gonna start by playin' nice. Jus' tell her what I want. But I got big guns on my side, if it come to it. Not like that," she nods at Crawley. "I don' wanna turn to th' nobles, but B got our back, if we need her."

She looks at the boggan. "If you gotta idea, spit it out. You too, Greasemonkey."

Apparently, Crawley's contributions are assumed to be welcome...or at least, unstoppable.

Nec smirks at something, then nods

"Well," The fuel mixing boggan wizard proposes "She may have all the dross now, but not all the sources of it. Eventually she would run out. Ask her if she wants to be cut off for good?"

"Well, she still be able to fleece the folks what stay loyal to her. But yeah...."

Agreements, and they close on the workshop area of el bitch de witcho...as Nec has dubbed her

And so they approach her workshop.

When they get there, if they're not challenged beforehand, Tweak takes a deep breath and knocks. "Yo!"

Guns pop out from the side walls and a speaker comes on "What the fuck do you want?"

"You ain' that stupid, bitch. Open up."

"After you had me shoved out on your little furkin brat meet? Why should I?"

A broad shrug. "You was invited when you was invited. You din't show then. You wasn't invited when you did show. 'Sides...th' freeholder got this thing 'bout violatin' the fire code, an' there be a shit ton of peeps in there, a'ready." A very toothy grin.

"Bitch" The guns recede

And the door opens, there's a buzz

Tweak nods, but mutters to the others, "Watch yerselves. She been puttin' th' weaponmakers to work for herself."

"Yeah, that'll be fun," Nec says drily and they enter in

The work shop has a hand full of nockers and boggans, and Goblins! Yes, Thallian giggling over new devices

Tweak stares at the goblins a moment, then loudly says, "Is you FUCKIN' KIDDIN' ME?"

"What? " Bianca steps into view, "They need a place to go, I'm providing. Didn't you learn from anything? The Co op needs to be inclusive."

"Furkin Franz didn't see that" She snorts

"Oh? I ain' seein' a whole lotta pooka or trolls in here...." A sneer at the goblins. "There be inclusion, then there be straight up psycho." She looks back at her opposition. "You done fucked up, Bianci, an' I gonna help you unfuck shit. Cuz I be a helper like that."

"We wouldn't be the first nockers to work with goblins, they're cousins" She snorts

"So jus' cuz it been done mean it good to do again? Sound like you stealin' ideas from old, failed fuckers."

"Hey... you want me to .." One giggly goblin reachesfor a gun. Nec has aleady drawn his.

"Ohh, you so don' wanna do that, fuck-face." Tweak just narrows her eyes and shakes her head at the goblin.

Baltasar says "Now easy easy"
