"Not usually. Something seems amiss." DI Ty'lr says looking at the older man in a white linen suit and white hat walking down the hall.
After watching the older man walk into the room, Jax asks DI Ty'lr "Who is that?"

As Jax waited for the Migs to emerge from the interrogation room, he noticed that Migs' personal effects, including his comlink were on DI Ty'lr's desk. Picking it up, Jax says to DI Ty'lr, "You don't mind if I borrow this for a moment."

Use the Force: Mind Trick (1d20)17+8=25

Jax motioned for Slick to come over. "Slick, download all the data and logs on this comlink for me."

"I don't know who that is." Says DI Ty'lr.

Jax picks up the commlink "You don't mind if I borrow this for a moment."

DI Ty'lr replies "I don't mind if you borrow that for a moment."

Slick downloads the commlink data and chirps he is done.

"So Mr. Migs, let me ask you, what do you think of your current situation?" The man in white asks with a slight scowl to his face.

"In a nut shell? Annoyed. It seems that in this day and age, those that stand by their principles and defense of their friends are cast aside in the pursuit of selfish gain and vindictiveness. Perhaps I have spent too much time in the wilds where cooperation and sacrifice for the benefit of the group is a necessity of survival not just a set of lofty ideals that get thrown away at the first hint of adversity. Either way, I'm stuck here waiting for my face to get smashed thanks to my 'friends' with nothing to get me out of here save the cold hard facts and evidence of my innocence.
Let me ask you a question. If one of your friends set you up to get executed, what would you do? "
Bulwark shrugs, "Anyways, what is your story, are you the one they sent to rough me up, or I get another chance to play dodge the first with Inspector Hunt?"

"Oh I'm not with the police. I'm sorry that wasn't obvious. However depending how this conversation goes you might not be facing execution, or they may throw you into the Sarlaac. A lot has to do with you. My sources tell me you have considerable talents. You are not like most men, but as fate would have it, it appears as though you've made some poor choices." He motions to the room you are in. "So Mr. Migs, tell me what you have to offer in exchange for your life."

Bulwark frowns, "I'm not going to sell myself as your slave in exchange for my freedom, if that's what you are asking. Id rather die in here my own man than be someone elses manslave."

"Slave?" The man chuckles. "Oh no. I don't need slaves. Maybe I haven't been clear. Your record as a safari leader is well known. Your recent escapades have also increased your reputation as a man who can do things, difficult things. What I'm wondering is what kind of services can you provide that would be worth my time to prevent your death."

Bulwark thinks for a moment, "A job in exchange for my freedom. Given the circumstances, that does seem like the lesser of two evils. As for what I am willing to do, you seem to have a pretty good idea of my capabilities. What exactly are you looking for?"

While we wait here, look at the history you downloaded from Migs' comlink and give me a list of all communications with the device after excluding the numbers for the Sweet D crew.

"I'm recruiting operatives to my organization Mr. Migs. Your talents seem to suggest you could be made into a capable sniper. What I would be looking for is an operative capable of following my orders and instructions without question and without delay, regardless of the target. And you need to act in accordance to standards of behavior I set up regardless of personal bias. Are these conditions acceptable?"
The man asks.

"Are we talking a one time job, a series of contracts I can accept or decline, or endentured servitude?
Also, despite what the locals say, I don't kill innocents.
Don't get me wrong, I am grateful for someone that will offer to get me out of my current predicament, but a strange man who walks in handing out candy raises a lot of red flags. I don't even know your name, but judging from your offer and your knowledge of my past, I assume you are in bed with the exchange."

Do you see any trace of the message he claims to have received from 'Ro'Talth? What calls did he make after the altercation with Ro'Talth?

"The Exchange? Oh no they are ruffians and neerdowells. My name is Nolan Tsont'Ar. I'm not going to get into the particulars of my work, but if I send someone to your door with a blaster, you did something, probably pretty awful to bring me there. Innocents are whom I aim to protect. As for the conditions of your employment. You will be a normally paid staff member. You will get contracts and you will execute those contracts. When you have completed 10 you are free to go your own way. That is my offer and all I'm prepared to say about it. I'll give you two minutes to decide." He sets a chrono on the table set for two minutes then slightly recline sin his chair studying you.

I'm torn. Should I leave the planet or stay and go my own route once I get my cut from the 50k get solvent and get my own ship. Just to maintain my sanity with all this in-fighting.

I guess I'll grudgingly go along for the ride. But I really think we have 0 reason to go to bothuwai. Dood and his family need their time to get this issue resolved. The band of merry idiots (my explosive fixated self included) should start following the tordassium leads. And not waste time.
I'd prefer to go to coruscant. One for their law enforcement to keep us in line and because that might find us a better lead on the ore and I thought one of the lieutenants was on coruscant.

No trace of messages received. After the altercation there was the normal group chatter channel accessed by Sweet D crew and a single exchange between Cuspar and Bulwark.

If anything we're goint Bothuwai to tell Dood what has happened, pick up Klak and wait for Mr.T to provide more details on his job. We are low on credits and it seems like information is pricey so this is our best bet at the moment. I believe the general plan was to head to Ord Mantrell to go for the Ore lead, but with all the IG drama we've overlooked the information you got. That and we haven't seen you around much to get your opinion (we miss So Leet :woe: ). Bothuwai should just be a quick stop to regroup and refocus (I hope) and get out of the Tatooine mess.

[OOC: let's consider this So/Syric discussion as actually happening]

Look guys. We've dug our own holes. Not even a mass grave. INDIVIDUAL FUCKING HOLES. Let's do this together. Let's go get Dood and Klak, and do this job for Tsont'Ar. I just have a feeling that this is the quickest way to Jounville. We won't forget our leads on tordassium - but we're going to Dood's home planet. A planet OBSESSED with information - and information is what we need. I have to believe that we can pull it together. And we HAVE to pull it together. The Bothans will look at us with utter disdain, so if we show up acting like idiots - we're doomed. We need to be a team.
