Norum shoots back a text. "'Ey look snorty you and I know we had nothing to do with your boss getting upset at you in the first place. I got work to do." Norum turns off notifications except from Elena and let's out a heavy annoyed sigh, stuffing the phone back into his pocket.

Norum looks up, checking to see if the door barrel is on the outside. If there is, he would attempt to break the chain spool on the side on the ground.

Ryde looks around the nearby street to see if they are being watched.

Rog attempts to text back.

not

Frustrated by his inability to press the right keys on such a small screen, Rog settles for "n".

Elena's response is quick.

"I mean like welding, metalworking, or machining?"

The door barrel is on the inside.

You don't see anything that grabs your attention.

"Damn" Norum utters under his breath. "No way to do this without making some noise. Anyone got a pipe, crowbar or something," Norum asks, looking around the alley.

Ryde sniffs the air a bit, looking back on the garage door to see if theres anything Norum missed.

     Daniel flexes his mechanical fingers, they bend farther back than a regular hand.  He then worms them underneath the garage door and attempts to lift it, stressing most of the weight on the mechanical servos of his elbow.

Elena's response is quick.

"I mean like welding, metalworking, or machining?"
Rog sighs in frustration and decides to simply call her rather than fiddle with the touchscreen again.

Amanda looks around to see if anyone is watching then proceeds to pry off the boards

You wrench your fingers under the garage door, and begin working with it, but you cannot leverage to the door enough to get it open.

"Need help?" Norum offers.



Rog sighs in frustration and decides to simply call her rather than fiddle with the touchscreen again.

Elena picks up instantly.

"Yeah?"

You hear absolutely no background noise through the line.


Amanda looks around to see if anyone is watching then proceeds to pry off the boards

The board comes right off. The inside smells like stale meat and chemical cleaner. There is evidence that someone has come through the window before you and had pilfered the store.



Zhang gets to Rog's location without incident.



Jae arrives home. There's a package at the door.

Ryde bends down to help him lift the gate up

     Daniel looked up at Norum, "Yeah, yeah give me a hand," he said, scooting over to give Norum some room as well.

Amanda slips inside and puts her hand up to her ear instinctively.

"What am I looking for, Elena?"

Elena picks up instantly.

"Yeah?"

You hear absolutely no background noise through the line.
"Yeah, what's this about technical skills?"

    Daniel looked up at Norum, "Yeah, yeah give me a hand," he said, scooting over to give Norum some room as well.
Norum nods, squats down, and gently slides his hands underneath the gate palms up, and, after Ryde is prepared to lift, Norum speaks out in a hushed tone,

"Alright, on three.

One... Two...

THREE!" Norum says, heaving as he strains to lift the door, pushing with his feet against the ground at nearly full force.

On Norum's cue, Ryde lifts up as much as he can in synchronization with the rest of them
