“Go to your happy place, Bill,” he said to himself.
About thirty seconds later…
“Wait, not the happy place with wine in it. Go to the other happy place.”
Mira begins singing about how good a glass of wine tastes after a job well done right about now.
Once all are settled with their wine glass the distinct cracking open of a door can be heard
It Is Requested The Players Cease Posting
Coming through the door is a woman dressed as if she was alone in her own home, Pajama pants alongside a hoodie representing one “Paranoid State”. Her back seemingly heavily hunched. Distinctly she carries also a glass of wine.
She then nods towards Vision, who takes their leave. Seeing at their role has been fulfilled for the time being
“Well well well, kept ya waiting didn’t I! Allow me to introduce myself to ya all, name’s Spider. I am the bastard who brought ya all together this fine fine day in the middle of nowhere. From this motel, as Vision explained to you all, we’ll be living, planning, and prepping all the shit one’s black little heart could desire for taking from the rich and givin to ourselves.”
She then flicks on the screen, showing a picture of an upscale jewelry store
“Now cause I wanna get ya to work and ya wanna make money I ain’t gonna pump the breaks. The first target we have is the Sach Brothers’ store located in New York City. Thing is throughout all of our human history, shiny shit has been the most valuable thing, whether it be gold, silver and in our case diamonds! The great thing about diamonds for stealing em is that ya don’t gotta carry alot to get a whole lotta cash from it. From my rough guesses there’s roughly 15 million worth of diamonds in there all told, cut off 5 million just from assorted expenses and paying back investors and it should work out to a million for each of us. Don’t that sound wonderful!”
She clears her throat for a moment, tempting to regain some semblance of composure from the excitement that crept into her voice talking about the money
“Anyways in roughly 48 hours transport will be arranged to our temporary hideout located in NYC where I will be offering a further more in detail briefing, and to finalize our partnership”
She raises her glass in a toast
“A toast to those tossed away by society, a toast to preemptively mourn those whom will die, and a final toast to thank those with more money than sense.”
She then drains her glass of wine and signals for the rest to do the same

Bill downed his entire glass, drinking like a man who had been deprived of liquid for eleven days.
“Hmph.” I attempt to my best to look displeased as I slowly drink down the… acceptable liquor.
Richard no longer has wine infront of him so he just raises his flask
I shakily place down the glass on a nearby table and hobble off to anywhere else.
“I can drink to that.” Mira called out cheerfully as she downed her glass with gusto.
"Heh… hey, sexy…"
Kit is not listening, instead talking to a handheld mirror. He’s looking good today! He always does.
Bill picked up Richard’s glass and continued drinking, though at a slower pace than before.
“Ya’ll bitches. Lightweights.”
he heads over to the tap to refill his flask
I stumble gracefully into the room and unceremoniously drop into a corner, holding my legs against my chest.
“What am I doing…”
Bill sat down, then pulled a small mirror out of his pocket. He began adjusting his hair.
A phone began to ring.
Bill sighed, then set down his mirror and reached into his pocket.
“You’ve reached Bill!” he said with an enthusiasm that was at odds with his earlier epression. “To whom do I owe the pleasure?”
…
“My… taxes?”
…
“Oh my goodness, really? I had no idea!” He leaned back from the phone and rolled his eyes before returning to the call.
…
He chuckled. “You can have my social security number when I’m dead and buried. I’ll even put it in my will.”
He hung up, spirits apparently restored, then resumed combing his hair.
