[With the rains pouring down acid, Kara decides it's best to stay at work even when she clocks off at the end of her shifts, preferring to avoid getting her wings wet. There are the tunnels, of course, and other ways through the Badlands, but then there's also the increased Company presence to contend with, which might actually be worse than the acid rain. It makes for an interesting atmosphere, especially when this Derrish bullshit is tossed into the mix. Any crook for hire worth their salt is scrambling for news from the rest of the Nine, hoping to get a job taking out the rumoured heir. Most of the idiots only care about themselves, so they haven't even considered what the fallout will be.
It keeps Kara busy, feeding names and faces and tips to any of her Killjoy contacts. It means she has to actually pay attention to what's happening around her, so she drifts from bar to bar, finding good spots to people watch without being too obvious.
She has a feeling it's going to be a long few days.]
> closed; Ginshu; day 3
[Ginshu isn't someone that Kara spends a lot of time with; not that she doesn’t like him (she doesn’t really have an opinion on him), but because it's too risky for two people from the Resistance to be seen together. Still, it doesn't surprise Kara all that much when he reaches out to ask for her assistance with something dangerous.
Those in the Resistance who know Kara are aware of her military history, making her a good choice when dirty work needs to be done. She isn't sure exactly what Ginshu has in mind, but with the increased Company presence and the executions, she can't imagine it'll be simply.
Right now, something challenging will be good to distract her from all the bullshit going on, so she's happy to make her way into the deeper tunnels to where Ginshu told her to meet him.]
> closed; Itsuki; day 5
[The Red Stag is one of Kara's favourite bars, mostly thanks to the level of discretion that both the owner, and the other patrons, are willing to uphold. A lot of shady deals go on in the Stag, but it’s a different calibre of criminal than the type who frequent Eulogy, so Kara doesn't need to worry about any overlap. And a little bit of Joy slipped to the owner means that if anyone decides to ask whether he knows Kara, he'll always say no.
It makes it a good place to hold meetings with Killjoys or other information traders, even ones as annoying as Itsuki. If he has information about the attack on the FRB, she's willing to deal with being hit on.
The bar is quiet when she slips in, likely due to the rains, because not everyone knows the city as well as Kara. She can hardly blame them for not knowing how to get from place to place without exposing themselves to the acid. No one inside pays her any mind as she orders a whiskey and takes up a seat in a booth near the back, settling in to wait.]
> closed; Jason; later on day 5
[There are leads to follow, and Kara is trying hard to keep her anger at bay so she can focus on the task at hand without losing her cool. Right now that means arranging a meeting with Jason, at Eden, so they can update each other on what they've got so far. She has a feeling that Jason shares her current sentiments; he tries to hide it, but he seems to have a protective streak when it comes to underdogs, judging by the warrants he favours, as well as his methods.
It's her second meeting of the day, but she needs to keep moving with the information she has, so it's worth it. She just hopes Jason doesn't decide to run late.]
