NOIR {ON THE RUN}

Call a cab

[Ad Bot]

[Potatoh]

Call another cab while inside of the cab you are in or soon to be in

[Rabbot32]

>CALL CAB
You step to the sidewalk. All around you are worn-out places, but no familiar faces. On a corner not too far off, a paperboy holds a paper up and shouts the headline to anyone passing by. There's a mugger doing his mugging thing in an alley on the other side of the street. Traffic is passing slower here than at the heart of the city, icier roads facilitating more careful movement. Out on docks proper is a racketeer's hideout, a man selling counterfeit cigarettes, and a handful of docked military ships. They're being covered in snow, slowly but surely.
You step to the edge of the sidewalk and fling your arm out into the road while shouting for a taxi. One damn near parks on you. You get into the back, rubbing your hands together and wishing you had a pair of gloves.
"Where to?"

>CALL ANOTHER CAB INSIDE THE CAB
Realizing that this cabbie is speaking in Comic Sans, you scoot over to the window of the cab and shout for a taxi again. The driver looks at you in the rear view mirror like you've lost your mind.
"You a basket case or somethin'?"
Well, at least he isn't a skeleton. You give him the location you want to go to, it's...

You're perfectly healthy.
You are carrying: .38 Colt, Multitool, Lockpick, Kar Ceys, Check, Knife, Whippet, Ravioliravioligivemetheformuo li. You have 23.92$.
You are wearing clothes made for the cold. A black wool coat falls to your calves and a felt flat-top boating hat rests on your head. Underneath you are wearing suspenders over a shirt and a holster with a gun in it. Your coat is buttoned up, making it impossible to draw the shotgun quickly. However, the shotgun is also nearly invisible now.

[TheKid]

where do YOU want to go?

[tber123]

Let's go to our car

[Potatoh]

Call another cab

[Rabbot32]

>WHERE DO YOU WANNA GO
...you ask the driver, who's head slowly sinks to the steering wheel. It rests there for a moment while the driver starts to swear furiously under his breath, slamming his head against the wheel in tiny motions.

>CALL ANOTHER CAB
You stick your head out the window and shout for a taxi. The driver's head continues to meet the wheel repeatedly. You catch snippets of his swearing, something about 'motherloving Christmas' and 'goddamn fruitcakes'.

>GO TO YOUR CAR
You tell him you've been screwing around and give him the address of where you want to go. He looks at you hesitantly. You expect him to start hitting his head against the wheel again.
"Ain't that the corner the PI killed that girl on?"

Oooh forget. Think fast, Patterson.

[TheKid]

oh really?!?! what a tragedy!!!! what happened??????

(also maybe not go there because cops could be there. maybe a block away thats closer for less money spending)

[Refticus]

say that you've heard of it, but you're not looking any further into the story

[Rabbot32]

>USE YOUR AMAZING LYING SKILLS
You tell the cabbie you heard about it and that you heard about it, but you're just a tenant. He nods and begins to drive. He still seems suspicious.
"So, nutbar, whaddya do around here?"
Ffforget.

>CHANGE LOCATION TO JUST AROUND THE BLOCK
You dodge the question by mumbling something about work. He looks at you in the mirror. You lean against the door for a moment like you're thinking, then tell him to drop you off a block away from the place. He raises an eyebrow, but slowly nods.
"Whaddeva, fruitcake. Yer payin' the bill."
