It's going to be fun writing Fionn's reaction to a more extended conversation about the whole "spying" thing - largely because he's just going to be insulted.  Previously, his reaction was more of a simple "what the hell is he on about".

Yeah, I can definitely see the proverbial shit hitting the fan on that one.

Johnny will have changed clothes if Sam suggested it otherwise he will have stuck with the Walker Texas Ranger outfit. He will have grabbed some sunglasses though (mirrored if they are available) . He will try to stay close enough to Matty and the contact so if anybody draws guns he will be close enough to try to disarm them (he told the team this in the car). Otherwise he's gonna be the strong silent type, taking his cues from Sam and Sammy.

My apologies for the delay; I've been fighting a cold since we got back (I blame the sub-par hotel we stayed at on the final night). Will have an IC post up shortly.

Hope you are feeling better dude, here are the results for Sam's rolls.

Diner- Eight people in the diner, including staff (1 cook, 1 waitress).  Everyone who is a customer looks road weary and minding their own business, two are armed, a trucker at the counter has a pistol on his hip, oblivious to the world beyond the disgusting mess on his plate, and the back-up for your contact, who really sucks at being inconspicuous with a mystery bulge under a coat (upwards of an SMG, maybe), in the corner of the diner behind Greasy.

Greasy- Medium fish in a small pond with delusions of grandeur, he is a local fixer that is taking the wrong cues to how the game is played. Probably self-taught, or he did a short stint with some real criminals and learned a few things.

Jonny- No threat, and you basically got the same description.

Sammy- 'fixer' is eager and happy, with some headware.  The backup is on guard, with some bodyware mods, but nothing major.

No active magic in the diner.

Too bad Clem's not around to see it? ;D

Sam doesn't go for small. He's willing to swap personas frequently in order to get what he wants, and he felt the best way to deal with Greasy was to appear as a powerful Johnson who has had a temporary setback, but who would recover soon--and remember those who'd helped (or not) in the process. So he was willing to go to the diner because he needed to, but he's not about to let Greasy set the scene for their negotiation. Pity about Matty getting a bit thrown under the bus, but Sam isn't about to let him know that this isn't his real persona, and anyways, I expect he'll recover. Heck, if we're lucky, this'll just lead to some hero worship. ;)

Hopefully your con roll is strong enough to pull it off, but even if it isn't, kudos for the originality.

It's a pretty good tactic, really - it should throw the guy off balance and give Sam the advantage.

Johnny will attempt to politely play bouncer letting only the "fixer" by. He will let the muscle keep a visual on everything but out of earshot. Also he wont take his eyes off the muscle.
