(According to Deric, he don't speak Portuguese so well, so below is only Vic's perspective. All parties mentioned have approved.) Vic sat in a cement holding cell picking at paint chips on the bars. He could hear talking from the guards and from the two ACME agents, everything in... -

Vic "the Slick" Fumigali was happily napping when somebody shook him awake. He was ready to pounce the other way and run when he saw it was the pilot's navigator. "I'm awake, whatdayawant?" "They're on to us, Vic," the navigator said nervously, "the Brazilians sent an escort team of a attack... -

Somewhere between Tunisia and Brazil... In the plane going from Southern Tunisia to Brazil, Vic the Slick was still getting sand out of his shoes. Hailey Weller was asleep. The three watches on her wrist pressed against her cheek, so Fumigalli moved her hand down a little. He didn't... -

It was barely an hour after the ACME Press Conference, and The Master Thief had already told her Lowly Follower everything he needed to know. Carmen was going to take care of the front, while Vic was to take the little girl to a half-way point for her safe return to ACME. Fumigalli was still... -

(Another co-post with @Carmen, hot off the burner.) "Sonova..." Vincent 'The Slick' Fumigalli drew a comment while in a chair facing the satellite feed from a news channel. Live from ACME Headquarters. The man on screen was Chase Devineaux, ACME's Field Director and poster boy, blatantly... -

(Co-post, written by yours truly and the Lady in Red.) When Vic "The Slick" Fumigalli got a message on his phone that his bonus came through and that Carmen wanted to see him, he had conflicting thoughts. The result could be either very good, or very bad. The titillating thief had good... -

Was asked to write the first of 4 posts that's going to end this here RP, so everybody play along, ah? If it's all botched up, and I need to fix, msg me. Vic picked up the hacker, then the trio (Vic, Flag, and the hired hacker) made it up to ACME's Dome, the security area on the 16th floor... -

Flag said: "Actually, he should be fine in whatever he's wearing. could provide a further sense of authenticity for us." Vic grinned as he took the 'bump keys' and joked about the hacker, "He can fake looking like an ACME agent, got a baby face an' all." When he was ready, he checked... -

((OOC: Evening in San Francisco, got it. We’re workin towards 3 am, like you said.)) “10 grand, all yours,” he said, “I guess you hadn’t talked to Carmen recent or she’d arrange it already. I’m getting about the same myself.” Vic followed his partner’s instructions and put on the uniform... -

Vic grinned to his new partner, "I'm prepared for just 'bout anything," he said, "part of working with VILE, ah?" With that, he looked through the plans and the circles, trying to understand them better. "I'm no hacker," he answered to what Flag said about him manning the console, "but I know... -

Vincent Fumigalli followed his new partner into the restaurant and put his briefcase down, sitting with a nervous look, glancing around the place to make sure they weren't being watched. When he was sure they were clear, he got started. "You know Carmen wants something, right? Something big?"... -

Fumigalli was a good Fixer. Fixers were people that got things, set up things, "fixed" things so that the rest of the team can function. He was the guy people went to with a shady "shopping list" of equipment for a heist, and he was the guy with most of the contacts. Vic got Flag's message... -

Somewhere in San Francisco: Vic "The Slick" Fumigalli got news from Eartha Brute all the way somewhere outside of Luxembourg City that the team in San Francisco was ready and waiting for him. All other plans, she said, were cancelled. Being the nervous man that he was, Vic told Dragon, then... -

Montreal, Quebec, Canada Vic the Slick scratched his scalp through the gel-hardened hair on his head. He had been following Carmen's directions for 12 hours straight. Now he was in Notre Dame des Neiges cemetery in Montreal, looking for a bronze statue called L'ange à l'aile brisée by some guy... -
Archived La Vie de Luxe - Oh Canada!
(OOC: Timeline for Canada is a little faster than main Luxe to compensate travel time. Carmen approved the info below. We'll meet up with you Luxembourg guys about after your little action sequence ah?) First, Vic watched the cops arrive, and then he watched the girl go crazy. He couldn't see...

Did you know David Attenborough was knighted twice? First in 1985, and again in 2002

Jon Eckart:
@Lucy ... don't know if you really want wolf spiders in your home... I'd go for jumping spiders, they can't bite... wolf spiders are the fast movers, and they can bite. -
Jon Eckart:
((Will lose my ACP internet towards the end of the month, unless anyone knows about it ending sooner. Trying to switch my Lifeline phone to a better provider that doesn't shut me off after four and a half gigs of data, nothing but failure so far and "call here" and "it's on their end" and the back and forth crap... in the morning, it's time to demand the supervisor and might even get to harsh language (after three days of that). I plan to use the Lifeline phone tethered as Internet source, share that to my own router... I've done it before (it's messy, and not 100% effective, but it works). ))

Jon Eckart:
((The 'net is the main way to apply for jobs now, so I need that, and I've moved/changed Lifeline providers before without an issue, so no idea what the problem is. I have active Verizon through ACP, active Lifeline through Airtalk... is that somehow the issue? If anyone knows, please let me know before I tear someone a new one (ya know what I mean). After three days of this, and two days about a month ago, I'm ready to walk there with katana in hand.))

((And, thoughout this process, I want to port my number (have the info for that) and use the phone I have (Samsung Galaxy S9... gotten for free through Airtalk... note to anyone: if you choose a nice phone through them, you are locked into a 120 day "commitment" to get the phone for free, and they have a very hard data limit... once you use up your data, they cut you off, point blank.))
