| The cat continued to accompany the duo on the way back, where they discovered that the Olsen twins do not see the cat ("mortals!", sneers [[B|B.]]). Even Magenta seems to notice he is fading away, until she reaches out to pat him, at which point he regains realness. In any event, the cat continues to be far more helpful than his master. It is his suggestion, eventually, that leads them (sans the cinema trio, which were put back in the city safe and a little dazed, if you must know) to a USAF base, to check any suspicious satellites. | The cat continued to accompany the duo on the way back, where they discovered that the Olsen twins do not see the cat ("mortals!", sneers [[B|B.]]).

| After a short show of not being afraid due to being an oh-so-cool [[Technomancer]] ("if it's that important, go fetch me a note from your Prince") he agrees to cooperate in exchange of a lesser [[boon]]. Using strange devices that plug in to his head he examines the astral security tapes and states that there is no correlation between the spread of the "disease" and any satellite he can see. Upon further prodding he finds a constant angle between the moon and the earth where the thinbloods were dying, but he also explains that there has to be one, so it's really no big deal. | After a short show of not being afraid due to being an oh-so-cool [[Technomancer]] ("if it's that important, go fetch me a note from your Prince") he agrees to cooperate in exchange of a lesser [[boon]].

| Before they leave, he tries to inject Smith with something ("to seal the deal"), but Smith teaches unto him that vampires are faster, and he has to settle for a contract signed in [[Vitae]]. | Before they leave, he tries to inject Smith with something ("to seal the deal"), but Smith teaches unto him that vampires are faster, and he has to settle for a contract signed in [[Vitae]]. | ||

She puts Smith in a room he can't leave without setting off an alarm and goes to sleep somewhere else. She also talks to [[Primogen O'Hara|Coney]] and learns that the Prince is away on important business, which lends strength to the Technomancer's claim. |
| When "morning" comes she sets him free and goes to take care of some business (lit. club) while Smith takes care of his. This he does by sitting at the [[Smoke]] café, drinking a mean bloody mary and running tests on the cat, which is feasting on several cans of tuna that might have been actually eaten by Smith himself. | When "morning" comes she sets him free and goes to take care of some business (lit. club) while Smith takes care of his.
