Firefox accepted the proffered card, glanced at it briefly, then passed it back.
"What time?"
She made polite conversation with the dwindling team as she finished her salad and a single glass of the wine. She finished before the arrival of Snow's date.
"A word of advice. Mr. "F" doesn't think he's paying. I'm going to see what I can do about this with management, but if you start running up too big a tab, they may re-think whatever arrangement I come to.
Have fun with your girl and I'll see you soon."
As she slid back her chair and stood, she gestured to the bottle she'd been enjoying.
"Happy to leave that for the two of you if you wish. If not, I'll take it. Shame to have it poured down the drain."
Picking up the bill, she headed back to the kitchen entrance, pigeon-holing the maitre'd.
"There seems the be some confusion as to who is responsible for this. It is the understanding of myself and my companions that this should be charged to Mr. F's account. We will discuss with him later whether it shall be debited against the reimbursement for our services. In any event, it would be unfortunate if this understanding were inaccurate. Some of my friends are not as familiar with the nuances of etiquette in an establishment such as yours. It would be a shame if some of your other guests were to be disturbed or injured as a result of a disagreement."
Placing the slip of paper on the wall, she added a 30% tip before passing it to the server and concluding in Sperethiel
"I presume my understanding of the arrangements is accurate?"

08:15, Today: Firefox rolled 6 successes using 6d6 with the Shadowrun system with a target of 4 with rolls of 5,(6+3)9,4,5,(6+3)9,(6+3)9. Negotiation - bargaining.
Hopefully 3 9s will do it . . .
Negotiations concluded, she contined out the back door, grabbing an appetizer from a waiting plate. Quite good actually. She'd consider returning in the future, but serving live cats was a bit much for her taste.
The others seemed to have departed, but her bike was still where she'd left it. Time to see what she could learn of drop bears from her library before trying to find Carver's warehouse.
