WHO: Kia WelBehenna (kia_on_top), Motoko Kusanagi (deuxesmachina) WHAT: One of the bombers tells the AMC what he knows WHERE: A small restaurant WHEN: November 30, afternoon
Motoko didn't frequent places like this. She liked to think of herself as a classier woman than that. She scanned the place over the rim of her sunglasses, taking in all the faces, any escape routes if she had to get the informant out fast. She had no idea what we could be dealing with here. It could be a trap for all she knew. Her trusty gun was hidden in a leg holster under her skirt.
She ordered a milkshake and looked around the place. Who was her informant?
Kia had an idea of who he'd have to talk to. She seemed out of place here, which had been part of the reason for asking the woman to a restaurant he knew he enjoyed. Quietly, he looked up at her and motioned for her to come to his table.
His heart pounded in his chest when he again thought of what he was about to do.
Motoko had a sharp eye. Just the small motion was enough to get her attention, and she walked over to the table with her milkshake and sat down.
She looked the kid over. He didn't seem that old, really. Was this really the face of the Monacello mafia power? She found it a little hard to believe, as well as sad. But it was always the young idealists that got caught up in the worst of the fighting, wasn't it? She had been there once, on a different kind of battlefield. She hadn't decided if this one was cleaner, or messier. Maybe she would never know.
Motoko watched him, carefully. He didn't look like he would risk pulling a gun on her, and it was no secret to her eyes that he was wearing body armor. He was worried. That meant he had something big to tell her.
He opened his coat, first letting her see that there was no weapon hidden in it(though there was one in his boot, just in case), and pulled out a small disc. On it was copies of all of the online conversations he'd participated in that talked about the planning of the bombings. At no point had he ever seemed as eager as some, simply willing to prove that he wasn't a slacker and that he might be trustworthy

"What do you have for me?"
