Franklin closely watches the man.
"There is a horrific preponderance of syringes in this area of space."

"And how do we get to this plain? If it's an overland trek you all need to get suits and gear. I can rig up carriage for Frank but the rest of you are going to need your own kit. I'll need maps and the latest weather reports if I'm to plan a route."
Despite only just returning from an overland trek, the illicit nature of this job and the frankly bizarre company she'll be in has her excited. She's got enough reserves for another trip, though she'll have to stock up on anti-rad treatments going out again so soon

Frank looks across at the man as he hands some very old and moldly bread under the table to somewhere...
(Quietly)
"Now then. You were saying that the Zhodani were performing psycho-alterative experiments on you?
To what end?
Why You?
Do you mean "the Zhodani" as a general people or the action of a specific group inside the Zhodani Consulate?
What is your overall physical state now?
Have you eaten,slept?
(Frank's eyes clearly narrow)
Do you have any diseases?"
You may have said these things before in your previous ramblings. But here we look for truth. As you say.

Owen joins in Pantera's planning discussion.
"We'll all need a few of those ponchos, like the kind you have. Lots of food and... well, you're the expert. If you could, it'd be nice if you could make sure we all have the right kit. So if you could take care of survival supplies, that'd be great.
What about the local wildlife? Is there anything we need to defend against? Are sporting weapons of _any_ kind allowed? Or is it bare fists against nature? I'd like to know who lives around the place, if any. And I'd like some kind of forward base. Hell, we could just get a cargo container, grav it out there and insulate it as a base for our 'holiday'".
[OOC: do we need a medic?]

Frank looks over at the woman as he stares into the salt shaker...
"Indeed. What are your thoughts? My first notion was personnel breakdown due to drugs. Some disease. Or perhaps sloppy cloning practices.
As to the attackers, whoever they were, they were extremely sophisticated in technical applications. The Machines used strategy on an almost Sophontic level."
Produces a small bit of the smashed spider robot's leg armature from his pouch of broken camera parts...

"Yadda yadda politics"
Deftly pocketing the cr1000 bill with which to purchase supplies, Panthera checks her aide and logs on to a wholesalers for trekking kit. She orders what she reckons the party needs, with lowest value items first. Therefore: rations, water vaporators, glare goggles, snow shoes or skis (if affordable). She tries to get a reasonable second hand tent (rad certified), and checks her own stores to see what see can share out.
It is probable that the cr1000 will not be sufficient for ponchos, serious ski's, and most definitley hostile environment suits. Once she has purchased all she can she'll have to ask the others, in the nicest possible way, for funds to get the rest, and will then pack it all in the grav vehicle Owen has hired.

OOC: To make a successful haggle.
Difficult. Streetwise, Negotiation, Persuasion or Trader only one may be used. 2min.
If Exceptional Success is one of the rolls - roll 2D10 (01-99%) and this will be the percentage of discount. Treat 00 as 0% If regular success then just 1D20 to calculate discount. If failure results then task may be retried at the next level of difficult. If another failure results or Exceptional Failure is the result then the doors are slammed in Panthera's face.
Quality roll 1D6 for each item purchased (only after puchase has been made)
1 Excellent 2 Good 3 Fair 4 Poor 5 Exceptionally Poor 6 Unusable.
Buyer beware is the unofficial moto of Traveller, afterall.

"Staggering implications. If it is some intercorporate conflict. That usually means trouble for us consumers. The details elude me at the moment. But do both parties involved (OOC: Meaning Naasirrka and SuSAG)have overlapping fortes? Do they compete in the same markets for the same goods and services?"
