Re: Meet-Up at the Seacraft Marina
In reply to Samantha Kilgore (msg # 91):
"Yeah, I'm good." Vonon nods, "The time difference between us walking into that set-up at the other marina, and you talking with this Justev, is just too short. Even if a set-up like I feared was arranged in advance, I just don't think anyone could have triggered it so fast."
Vonon looks over at Sharik and Walter, "So, as soon as these two locate your contact, I'm good to head straight out for the dome."
Vonon pauses a moment to think.
"Now, did you say that Justev already had his own plans to leave the dome at midnight, or something like that? And he wants us to pick him up? Well, okay, I'm just gnawing a bone, here, but once we figger out where the dome is, then we can calculate how fast we can get there. Once we do that, we let this Justev know when we'll be there."
"Now, if I remember right, Sam, you said that Justev told you he wasn't supposed to have a personal comm, but that he'd stashed one, anyway. Okay, then. Let's assume that if he's smart enough to hide a comm, he's smart enough to turn off its ringer. So, once we know where the dome is, we send Justev a text with an innocent sounding message -- something like 'Dannys party has been moved to 2 o'clock', or whatever time we think we'll be there. Then we hope he reads the message before we get there."
"I'm still thinking our best bet for getting into the dome is to walk, or swim, up to it; people-sized targets are less likely to set off alarms, as opposed to big, metal-skinned submersibles. And if we can coordinate with Justev to open an airlock for us, we're golden."
