Socrates shrugged, still distracted from the variety of D-bees. "I have yet to try it, but I once heard it is a useful herd if you need food." Socrates looked back at the sign. "How big is big?" He asked, trying to fit in with what he assumed was normal restaurant talk.

" The pup talks better than you, bud." The waitress chuckled, then made the size of a large bowl with her hand to indicate the size of the bowl," Haven't had anyone have room for seconds yet, except that ogre that Old Man Rollins has working for him in the junkyard. Trust me, it'll fill you up."

Duke played along "oh yeah, he's a bright one. now if he could just make up that over-sized mutant mind of his before I starve, we'll all be happy"

"I suppose I will have the stew, then." Socrates said. "Big should be big enough."

" Just pay him." Shep said, already putting on his new armor He winked at Sam," I'll just put in an expense claim, providing I can get it signed."
Once everyone was suited up, Tyneer led them to the Rusty Anvil. At the door, he turned and cautioned," All species are welcome in here, so mind those CS prejudices." He led them in, stepping past a passed out Larmac near the doorway. Inside, was dark and dirty, but no one paid attention as Tyneer led them towards an empty booth.
[Soc and Duke]
The waitress returned with what were more like soup pots and bowls. " Enjoy boys." The stew was more meat in gravy with a few vegetables chucked in, but it was definitely a bargain. Both notice a quartet enter and sit acrossed the room. Duke recognized the one leading the squad as one of his contacts, a retired CS soldier turned merc Joshua Tyneer. Socrates, on the other hand, doesn't recognize any of them, but the way thier mannerisms, can tell they are soldiers. [ Soc, make a recognize by scent roll]

Looking up from the stew, Socrates looks over at the men and woman. "That is him, is it?" He asked. Sniffing the air (48% to identify specific scents, skill is at 61%), he feels little disappointed. Duke had talked about the Tyneer fellow like he was some kind of CS super hero. To Socractes, he looked just as human as everyone else.

Sam smirks at Shep and tells the shopkeep that she'll take the armour and hands over the cred stick to pay for all the armour. After she slips the armour on, she follows Tyneer and nods as he warns them about checking anti-dbee sentiments at the door, not bothering to mention that for the most part d-bees didn't bother her, unless they were trying to kill her.
As they head over to the booth, she keeps a careful watch on their surroundings, keeping an eye out for any sign of trouble headed their way. (perception: 13)

Rhys pays for the suit of armor, then suits up shifthing his CP-30's shoulder holster to the armor and slinging the CP-50 over his shoulder and adjusting satchels and pouches on the armor. Following Tyneer and the crew into the place he moves with the swagger of a Merc, competent in his abilities. Scanning the common room of the Rusty Anvil.
(Perception: 17 + cybernetics bonus (Still no clue what the bonus from them is due to RUE)

Both Sam and Rhys pick up on a human and a dog boy paying attention to their table. As a waitress approached the table, Joshua slid out," I'm going to put out some feelers, see if I can get you some help." He looked at the waitress as he passed," Hello beautiful."
" such a charmer." The Waitress smirked, then looked at the squad. " What can I get for you folks?"
shep answered first," A mug of whatever you've got on tap, and a bowl of the special."
the waitress scowled," Shouldn't you let the lady order first?"
" She's no lady, she's my boss." He chuckled with a wink to Sam.
[Soc and Duke]
Taking a roundabout route, Joshua slid into an empty seat at the pair's table. " Hello Duke, just the fellow I was hoping to run into. since when did you take on a partner?" He asked, looking at Socrates.

Rhys chuckles, "I will have the same as him," *gesturing to Shep.*

Socrates looked back, visually assessing Tyneer, waiting for Duke to answer. Noting this question as being incongruous to what he knew already of Duke.

"who said anything about partners?" Duke regarded Tyneer knowingly "picked him up along the way. us mercs gotta stick together"
(ooc: just for the record in case it was missed, Duke is a 7' full conversion 'borg. his face is human except for the bionic eyes, and he tries to hide his features with NG non-enviro armor modified for large humanoids, a Branaghan overcoat, tinted goggles and an air filter. he might be mistaken for a large humanoid at range, but probably doesn't hold up well to close scrutiny)

" Yeah, sure Duke." Tyneer replied. " Seriously, are you looking for any work? I have a couple people that need some transportation. The kind of people that you have worked for in the past." He doesn't come out and say Coalition, but he makes a reference he's used before.
