The Heist

[crypddyd]

They had been investigating for weeks, planning and setting up for what seemed like forever. But now was the time for everything to go into action. One team dressed up and settled into various undercover positions in the casino- including Lion himself over at the slots, in case he needed to call Greta and let her know someone was calling her out. Though hopefully, word of mouth would find her first.

Another at the bank, Mona using her Executor weapon to prove they could break-in at any time. It was all or nothing now- either way Greta was about to learn there were way more Executors than she previously assumed.

That is, if the Executors were right in their assumptions. But after last time who knows what might happen...

...Let's not get too carried away, Medic.

[mementomoritz]

I know, I know... Don't count your chickens before you get your grant funding for avian research studies, right? [...Sure, let's go with that.]

It's just an interesting problem to puzzle out.

[discutio]

Or we can just hope the next layer is a bit quieter and I'll handle that if and when we arrive there.

[mementomoritz]

Probably! [She sounds fairly agreeable about it, at least.] But it's always nice to have an extra pair of hands, for handling it.

[A brief pause.]

...Metaphorically. Although I have done the literal kind, too. [Is anyone surprised at this point.]

[discutio]

I don't know that anything about you surprises me anymore, Medic.

[mementomoritz]

[She giggles a little at that- although very quietly, so as not to trouble his poor overworked ears.] I'm glad!

...I hope it doesn't mean I'm getting stale, though. It's important to always reach for more knowledge. [Her sin is greed for a reason.]

[discutio]

Well, let it never be said I'm unwilling to be proven wrong.

[mementomoritz]

That's important, too- after all, you can't learn anything if you get stubborn and cling to your pet theory despite the evidence.

[She tilts her head back, meditative.]

It's all about what we don't know that we don't know, I guess...

[discutio]

You've certainly a point there. I've the constant impression that what we aren't aware of vastly outweighs what we are, in any imaginable sense.

[mementomoritz]

Mm-hm! [She nods in emphatic agreement.] That's pretty much always true, considering the sheer volume of knowledge in the universe, but it would be nice if at least we knew more about our situation, specifically.
