"Ah, you're talking about identifying you as Eve sometime in the future, not about identifying Eve as you now. We can still mask your aura later - otherwise we'll have to lose another week.

About replacing Eve. From my side, the only thing I can try to do, is to create a new entry in the personnel database, then hack their base of transactions, and replace Eve with the new created entry. Anyone's got a better idea, honeys?"

[gilga]

Anna texts >> Hack eve's comlink and cancel her 'date' ? 

[Volker]

"Might work. Only problem is that we should distract her for the evening, lest someone spots her while she should be at work."

[gilga]

Anna texted: >> Perhaps we can do without hacking, simply have someone in a suit pick her up and take her to some expensive restaurant and then to an hotel room.  Does Eve knows how her client really look like? She clearly have never met him - and probably have a different one (or some?) every night?

Edited because now i am next to a computer, figured I'll post a bit from mobile to keep the discussion, and now had time to write it more properly.

Mike entered the conversation:
<<Do I see this right: We need to disguise Anna's aura on short notice? In that case I should hurry to go to my contact and buy some Manascape preparations. Afaik those only last minutes, so you probably should ask the mage to assense you under a pretense, asking him if he could check if you have magic in you. That way he might not get suspicious if the ruse fails.

Oh and in case you need someone to go out with this Eve, I'm totally prepared to take one for the team ;-)>>

"Well, anything besides voice recognition would be great. Or, you know, they could pay a handsome guard to check who is getting in." She was once again poked by her friend who whispered: "Break's over. Rick just gave me a message that we need to enter the new hires' data asap."

Slobber came back to the conversation in time to hear her companion let them know break was over. "Well lets not keep the ladies from their work, Johnathan. You can annoy me by getting every pretty lady to gawk at you later. "

"Observe the process of them passing through security and see if you notice any problems or glitches that they've forgotten about."

[Jack_Spade]

The observation didn't show any anomalies: Charleen entered the PIN and said her Name... three times. The last time she even hit the terminal, before the door finally opened.

Yael texted --> so we have the beginning of a plan, Mike picks up the real Eve and then I am being picked up as Eve, we may not need to hack any of them, just make sure that our client is a bit late.

[Volker]

"Wait, what? Where is this a "beginning of a plan"? She's got a job, she won't just go out with Mike when she's on duty. Am I the only one to do thinking in here? Come on, boys..."

bnc sighs, then inhales deeply before starting to talk in a stressed voice, indicating she's fighting down something.
"Look, I do understand that you rely on me when it comes to intel and technical stuff, and I know that you more experienced in terms of action than plannung. But until now, the gros of what we did was planned by me. I refuse to shoulder the whole mucho förböveln run myself, however. I help with the reader, I deal with the database, I get all the data, I fly the spydrones. But I don't fucking run this shit alone. If you bad-ass runners who already Ran when I was learning how to calculate the area of a triangle, don't come up with something better than "Mike will pick her up" anytime soon, I'll safe comme enfer burn some drek. It's not like I didn't give you some time to think."

[gilga]

Anna texted without seeming too emotional.

>> Well, if Mike thinks that he can pick Eve up - he is either a charmer - a briber or a sadistic SOB...  He is either BSing her into believing that he is her client. Throwing some money at her and hoping she'll cancel or Eve makes the journey in the trunk. 

This plan can benefit from some matrix magic as well - e.g. how does Eve normally identify her clients - do they really send her pictures... I mean most would want to be more discreet, so perhaps it is something more subtle like a red rose on their suit, a secret password on their commlinks? Perhaps they even say something a bit unusual to her. 

[Jack_Spade]

Mike replied:
<<Girls, that was meant more as a joke on my part - I don't actually think a beautiful escort girl would fall for an old ork fart like me. That said, if I had to do that instead of say Slobbertooth or Krestov I'd go for a simple approach: Some Laes and having her wake up in a paid hotel room without remembering how she got there.
That is unless you want to hack her commlink and just replace my old mugshot with that Zola... I mean Lavadora guy.>>

[gilga]

Anna answered >> Careful what you toss out there... this is how I got my part of this operation.  So we can either hack Eve's link or kidnap and drug her - any other suggestions?"

[Volker]

"I wasn't talking to you, honey. I just hoped that our troggeys wouldn't support common prejudice."

[spoiler]This post is partly intime, partly outtime. It feels like gilga and I are drawing the whole storyline. I remember Squirrel and Qwikfix/SgtBoomCloud as awesome players with grand ideas, and I'd love to hear some of them. So, Jack, this was actually about being at a loss of ideas. I just wanna shake the team a bit.

[SquirrelDude]

@all>> We've got the basics of the security info for how to get into files up here. We can get through the voice, and probably crack the keypad with some basic tools. We could just put Anne's pseudonym in the system directly instead of going through the process of trying to replace Eve.<<

[gilga]

Anna texts >> if you send me speech records I can just impersonate that girl - what is the big deal. It is a low quality audio. It is enough that I sound vaguely like her. I do not even have to be there, I can make you a premade recording.
