[22:06] <+Armature> ..
[22:06] <+Armature> .
[22:06] <+Armature> .
[22:07] <@Prox> +++
[22:07] <@Prox> so okay
[22:08] <@Prox> a detective guy in Delta City calls you up in the middle of the night and tells you to meet him at a warehouse
[22:08] <@Prox> there's been a break-in
[22:08] <@Prox> when you arrive at the warehouse, there's a guy in a black suit standing there.
[22:08] <@Prox> a light rain is falling
[22:08] <@Prox> ---
[22:09] * +Armature looks up at the sky
[22:09] <@Prox> good evening
[22:09] <@Prox> or good morning
[22:09] <+Armature> Could be a good night too.
[22:10] <@Prox> I had to call you down here because none of the other detectives took the night shift
[22:10] <+Armature> That's fine, I get calls like this alot
[22:11] <@Prox> i'm glad you're not mad
[22:11] <@Prox> anyways
[22:11] <@Prox> as you can see, the door to this warehouse has been forced open
[22:11] * @Prox walks into the open warehaus
[22:11] * +Armature follers
[22:12] <@Prox> there are boxes stacked everywhere
[22:12] * @Prox looks closely at the ground
[22:13] <@Prox> there's dust on the ground, but not enough to make any footprints visible
[22:13] * @Prox sighs and rubs his eyes
[22:13] <+Armature> Looks that way.
[22:13] <@Prox> [you see a square shape on the ground where there is no dust]
[22:14] <@Prox> [i think they call it a "void"]
[22:14] <@Prox> [yeah]
[22:15] <+Armature> What did ya have herE?
[22:15] <@Prox> hm
[22:15] <@Prox> i'm assuming it was a box
[22:16] * +Armature rolls eyes
[22:16] <+Armature> What was in the boxes?
[22:16] <@Prox> i really don't know
[22:17] * @Prox looks at the side of one of the boxes
[22:17] <+Armature> Can you phone in who owns this placE?
[22:17] <@Prox> sure
[22:17] <+Armature> And help me capping my last Es?
[22:17] <@Prox> surE
[22:17] * Deck has joined #rpg
[22:18] <@Prox> sup dack
[22:18] * Prox sets mode: +v Deck
[22:18] <+Armature> You haven't missed much, fill my friend in mr...?
[22:18] <@Prox> Prox.
[22:19] <@Prox> [whodathunkit]
[22:19] <@Prox> anyways
[22:19] <@Prox> we're in a warehouse
[22:19] <@Prox> there's been a break-in
[22:19] <+Deck> Ooh
[22:19] <+Deck> Ahh
[22:19] <@Prox> we're looking for clues
[22:19] <@Prox> it looks like whoever broke in took one of the boxes
[22:19] <+Armature> So, phone.
[22:19] <+Deck> Accursed box thieves
[22:19] <@Prox> yeah, phone
[22:19] * @Prox calls
[22:20] <@Prox> Hello.
[22:20] <+Deck> When will they know the damage they do? One family will not be able to hold or ship something
[22:20] <@Prox> Yeah.
[22:20] <@Prox> Hmm.
[22:20] <@Prox> Okay.
[22:20] <@Prox> Bye.
[22:20] <@Prox> Peanuts.
[22:21] <@Prox> These boxes are full of little packages of Planters (tm) peanuts.
[22:21] <+Armature> ...
[22:21] <@Prox> but that's not all
[22:21] <+Deck> But they represent fresh taste!
[22:21] <+Armature> How man-oh alright
[22:21] <@Prox> the guy also said that the organized crime often uses this place for other goods
[22:22] <+Armature> Deck, open a box
[22:22] <@Prox> and as you know
[22:22] <+Deck> >open box
[22:22] <@Prox> Delta City has organized crime.
[22:22] <+Deck> >eat contents
[22:23] * +Armature slaps deck on the back of the head
[22:23] * @Prox walks around to the back of the warehaus
[22:24] * Buzzard has joined #rpg
[22:24] * Prox sets mode: +v Buzzard
[22:24] * +Buzzard jumps out from the shadows
[22:24] <+Buzzard> sup guys!
[22:24] <@Prox> omgwtf
[22:24] * +Armature grabs Buzzard, shakes like salt
[22:25] <@Prox> hey, look over here
[22:26] <+Buzzard> so I hear we're looking for peanuts or something
[22:26] * @Prox points to the back door, which has also been forced open
[22:26] <@Prox> well
[22:26] <@Prox> yeah
[22:26] <@Prox> it's still stolen property
[22:26] <@Prox> but there might've been more stolen than just peanuts
[22:27] <@Prox> let's go to out of the warehouse
[22:27] <+Buzzard> kk
[22:27] * +Buzzard walk walk walk
[22:28] * +Deck straps himself to mets, sleeps
[22:28] -Buzzard:+#rpg- so where in RPG land is this, anyways
[22:28] * +Armature explodes
[22:28] * +Armature i mean follows
[22:28] <@Prox> delta city
[22:28] -Buzzard:+#rpg- kk
[22:30] <@Prox> i'm bakku
[22:30] <@Prox> sorry about that
[22:30] <@Prox> so yes, outside
[22:30] <@Prox> [it's raining a little harder now]
[22:31] <@Prox> [the ground has turned to mud]
[22:31] <+Deck> good lord they stole a rain machine!
[22:31] <@Prox> >roll eyes
[22:32] <+Armature> I thought you were napping
[22:32] -Buzzard:+#rpg- just for further reference I have my bike with me
[22:32] <+Deck> I talk in my sleep
[22:32] -> -@+#rpg- all light then
[22:32] <@Prox> it looks like there are wood splinters here on the inside of the door frame
[22:33] <@Prox> so, whoever stole the box, they carried it out this way
[22:33] <@Prox> wouldn't you agree sirs
[22:34] <@Prox> i'll keep talking
[22:34] <+Buzzard> maybe they carried out the box then broke it open
[22:34] <+Buzzard> outside
[22:34] <@Prox> they might've
[22:35] <@Prox> but I don't see the box anywhere around
[22:36] <@Prox> I do see some blatantly obvious tire tracks though
[22:36] <+Buzzard> could be from loading it onto a truck
[22:36] <@Prox> most probably
[22:37] <@Prox> if i know this area well enough, which I don't, those tracks are headed towards the marina
[22:37] * +Armature has been tapping chin all the while
[22:37] <+Buzzard> I'll follow them if you want
[22:38] <+Buzzard> be back in a very short time, prolly
[22:38] <+Armature> in your junk heap you mean?
[22:38] <+Buzzard> if that's what you want to call it
[22:38] <@Prox> i'm guessing your bike can't carry 4 people
[22:39] <+Armature> in your crappoop you mean?
[22:39] <+Buzzard> only seats one
[22:39] <+Buzzard> if that's what you want to call it
[22:39] <@Prox> i drove here
[22:39] <@Prox> i have a car
[22:39] * +Armature rolls off a long list of insults
[22:39] * +Buzzard keeps repeating the same thing
[22:39] <+Armature> p.s. your fly is down
[22:40] <+Buzzard> o shi-
[22:40] <+Armature> is winner (me) ^^
[22:40] <+Armature> So yeah anyways
[22:40] <+Armature> Let's pile in Proxo's car
[22:41] <@Prox> so somehow my car ends up in the noir-style alleyway behind the warehouse
[22:41] <+Buzzard> Can't leave my bike here, so I'll follow you guys
[22:41] <@Prox> kk
[22:42] <@Prox> so, we follow the tracks all the way to the docks
[22:42] <@Prox> or the wharfs
[22:42] <@Prox> or the marina
[22:42] <@Prox> or whatever
[22:42] <+Armature> pier
[22:42] <@Prox> that too
[22:42] <@Prox> there's a medium-duty truck sitting in front of one of the piers
[22:43] <@Prox> and the tire tracks lead right up to it...!
[22:43] <@Prox> there is a streetlight-style lamp on the pier which allows you to see two men carrying a box towards a rather large boat
[22:43] <+Armature> Welp
[22:44] * +Armature unhooks Deck, tosses him into the water
[22:44] * @Prox takes out one of those red police lights and puts it on Armature's head
[22:45] * +Armature makes siren noises and runs up to the men
[22:45] <+Deck> Zzzzzzzzz
[22:45] <+Deck> bubble bubbl
[22:46] -Deck- @+#rpg: I dunno my heart hasn't been in RP's lately
[22:46] -Deck- @+#rpg: So solly
[22:46] -> -@+#rpg- it's fine
[22:46] <+Armature> Excuse me sirs, but may I inspect that box?
[22:46] -Buzzard:+#rpg- brb
[22:46] <@Prox> "We've been seen!"
[22:47] <@Prox> "(other various criminalesque phrases)"
[22:47] <@Prox> somehow we end up fighting them
[22:47] <+Armature> Hey, my mother was a saint!
[22:48] -Armature:+#rpg- I'm out of practice, sorry
[22:48] <@Prox> i guess we'll have to wait for buzbar to get back
[22:49] <@Prox> and/or/maybe deck
[22:50] -Deck- @+#rpg: Don't wait for me

I don't know if we're still doing that rank thing, but if so, that was a Rank A adventure, 100 credits.

Damnit, I missed one. I'll need to visit chat more often.
