Sorry about last week. Lot came up at home, good news is I got this whole coming week off on vacation (exception of tomorrow) so hopefully I can get another session in and make it up to you guys.

Briggs and Haskill and yourself had been discussing how you're gonna handle this Volkov fellow. You brought up overloading his biotic amp which you were gonna ask Karri about, along with bringing her into the loop.

"We're gonna contact some old friends that don't want us dead and get our hands on any gear we can. I recommend you do the same.", Haskill says heading for the door, "We'll be in contact soon, stay safe Geronimo" he adds opening the door and heading out.

Briggs looks to you and heads out as well. He only turns to say "I'm sorry...I didn't want it to come to this."

Their confession was a lot to take in, but it's not helping to dwell on it.
>Go meet up with Karri and tell her everything.
>Use your contacts to see about getting whatever gear you can. (Sergeant Gardner from the Jakarta's armory and Goldsmith are likely your best bets.)
>Go tell Commander Sardis everything you just heard
>Other
>>
Self Bump
>>
>>19432702
I'll go with meeting Karri and telling her
>>
>Go tell Commander Sardis everything you just heard
>>
>>19432795

You head to Karri's dorm.
On the way you bump into Reggie.
"Hey Geronimo, hear you're my new squad leader. Good to know you picked the best of the best." he smirks
"So got any current orders sir?"

>What should Reggie focus on? Use your imagination.
>>
>>19432884
stay sharp get some rest
>>
>>19432884
Rifle marksmanship. You can never go wrong with that.
>>
>>19432916

"Hey, can do Sarge! Think I'll get right on that..."
Reggie waves and heads off towards his barrack.

You arrive at Karri's room and Hui is working on her Omni-tool

"Oh hey, looking for Karri?", she asks looking up from her work, I think she went to get some coffee, she should be back any minute. So...Jaguar Squad..."

"Yeah?" you reply watching her eyes glance to you.

"You only picked 4 members so far." she says.

>How do you respond
>>
>>19432991
"Yeah, I'm still trying to decide who else to pick. Why, you asking to join?"
>>
>>19433031

"No, that's your decision." she responds a little coldly.
You can't help but feel like you hurt her feelings by not asking in the first place. It strikes you her and Karri had always been on the same team, until now.
>>
>Explain why you didn't select her
>Apologize
>Invite her now
>Other
>>
>>19433115
I'll go with all of the above.

First we apologize, then explain why we didn't pick her initially(we didn't want to pull the rest of the unit's engineer support), and then invite her to join.
>>
>>19433168

Sorry about that /tg/ died, kept kicking me to a 404 page.
Gave it a little while.

You explain to Hui your intentions and make it clear if she wants in she can be a part of Jaguar squad too.

"I see, well I could understand that. Still Haskill is pretty handy with tech too. I think they'll be ok. Besides what is Karri without her assistant." She beams

You make a mental note to send a message to Sardis later about the addition so he doesn't fill in the spaces.
>>
>>19434331
we can tell him about it when we report the human rights violation we just herd about get the two guys who reported it there too and let them know whats going on.
>>
>>19434331

Karri walks in an armful of parts and components. Her face lights up when she sees you.
"Hey!", she sets throws the parts down on the worktable much to Hui's distress and gives you a huge hug,

>Go ahead and break the news
>Ask Hui for a moment of privacy
>Other
>>
>>19434390
>>Ask Hui for a moment of privacy
She might not need to hear that bit of information just yet.
>>
>>19434387

Ok, you want to tattle on Briggs and Haskill (Pollard and Ferris) for being former members of an organization who's very existence is suspect and virtually unknown to all but the highest levels of Alliance Brass, and those very few are all too often sympathetic to their cause at this point in history.

With that in mind what evidence would you bring forth because they're (Briggs and Haskill) are not likely to agree with your idea, they're trying to fly under their radar, not testify against them.
>>
>>19434483
Its the right thing to do .
>>
>>19434457

"Emily, could I get a moment alone with Karri?" you ask as she starts trying to sort out the pieces Karri plopped onto the table.

"Sure, just stay off my bunk, Sarge." she says rolling her eyes and making a smile at Karri before heading for the door.

The door clicks closed and you hear Emily walk away.

"So what's up James?" Karri looks mildly concerned at you.

>Break the news however you like
>>
>>19434493

True enough, but there will be heavy repercussions. Especially with your relationship with Briggs and Haskill, a decision I don't think should be made so lightly.

I'm not here to railroad you into not doing it but it deserves a little more than a single vote if you can be sympathetic to that.
>>
>>19434493
The "right" thing and the right thing aren't always the same.

>>19434516
I'll suggest giving her a quick rundown. They used to do merc work, got hired by a pro-human group, saw some crazy shit, and decided to split. Also that you suspect they met the guy you ran into in the woods.

I only remember the flashbacks going to Miranda slamming the psycho against the bulkhead, so I'll go with that as the stopping point for the explanation.
>>
>>19434603

They joined Cerberus and then something happened to make them leave, they briefed you on Volkov though who is almost certainly the same man who attacked you and "recruited" them, and worse, he's already taken an interest in you.

You tell Kari the gist of the situation.

"I don't understand, then Briggs and Haskill...shit...Have you told anyone else?" she asks pacing the room and finally looking to you

"No, you're the only one. I need your help Karri..." you reply.

"What do you need?" she asks overwhelmed by the implications

>Respond
>>
>>19434649
For now, just for her to keep that information to herself, but also to help you keep an eye out for Volkov in case he tries something else.

(think that's it for me, I got an early day tomorrow)
>>
>>19434801

Right' O sir.
Archived for you.
Guess we'll keep rolling if there is anyone else still lurking.
>>
Anyone still lurking? This is my last bump.
>>
Havn't followed this before otherwise i'd hop in, have a good day op.
>>
>>19435056

Eh, fair enough.
I haven't tried the new multiplayer stuff.
And I still haven't even started the Witcher 2.
>>
>>19435083
Give witcher 2 a go, i enjoyed it quite alot once i got into the combat.
>>
>>19435097

If you're an ME fan I'd love your thoughts on the ending. I can't seem to complain enough about it.
>>
>>19435083
Blargh. Why did I hafta find this right before I needed to go to work.

First all. We do not tell on Briggs and Haskill. They left on their own will and they've already proven themselves loyal.

Second, sure we should get Hui on the team. Do that next. Third, we need to gear up not only ourselves but the entire team.

Oh and lets see if we can't get the geth shielding. If not the prototype. Can it interface with our normal shield? I'm thinking the two shields working together would be great for a Vanguard.
>>
>>19435147
was my post a bit too much whiplash ?
>>
...i'm gonna re-edit my post

>>19434649
"i need to learn how to overload a biotic's implants, disable it so he can't use them"
>>
>>19435487
>>19435171

Assuming Mick is still around let's roll.

"I need to disable a biotic amp remotely, I also want to see if we can incorporate that shield tech into our gear. Anything that will improve our odds, I think we're gonna have a fight on our hands." you tell Karri.

"That's a lot to ask for but I'll do my best. Overloading an amp is nearly impossible without knowing how the hardware is set up. I'd need the manufacturer, even then they're highly resistant to that kind of attack and reboot usually within 30 seconds. I need any data you can get on their type of amp. As for the shield I'll do what I can, I was actually gonna see about making a prototype based on our tech which is what the parts were for." she says, she hugs you tightly, "I don't know what we're in for but they're not taking you from me."

>>19436230

You contact Sergeant Gardner aboard the Jakarta.

"Hey Geronimo, we got word you are officially part of the program now! Congrats son!" he says over the com.

"Thanks, couldn't have done it without your guys support." you reply

"Ahhhh phooey, you're just being nice. So what can I do for you?"

"I'm looking for gear, anything you can get a hold of."

"Well sure! Just tell me what you want and the next time we make port I'll swing by with the assistants and deliver it."

"When's your next leave?"

"3 weeks."

"..."

Everything alright kid?" Gardner asks after your pause.

"That's too long, Sergeant, I need the gear ASAP."

"Well...can't really help there. But I know someone who might could. You're stationed in Scott right? One of my friends helps handle military surplus there. His name is Jack Harken. Here is his contact information. I'll let him know to expect you and that you can be trusted...eh, you can be trusted right?

You send Karri a message to come and train with you.

She meets you in the yard with full combat gear.

"Thought we could have a training battle.", she says tossing you your shotgun, "Mind a friendly wager?"

"Possibly"

"No biotics, and if you can beat me I'll treat you to something a little special tomorrow night." with a coy smile across her face.

There is a waist high group of sandbags to your left.
