[plot] Gathering the threads, interweaving our stories

Hey everyone!

While not the end of a season, we still might be approaching the end of an arc, and as a number of things might move and change, this is a kind of pre-plot-post post to gather information to be able to properly plan IC happenings on the one hand and OOC who will do whats on the other hand.



Please comment with a link and the briefest description of all large-scale events happening in this post here. This includes killing/injuring mafia higher ups, collateral damage and everything else that could affect the political and public relations situation in Locke City.



There will be tense downtime of five days after the attack. Anyone who would during this time or shortly after
- go to police, FBI, military, media etc (the media in all three countries *will* reach out to the numbered shortly after (specifically to people who have reached out to these media within the last few months), no matter the outcome, and there will be a special political event in Locke, too... The FBI is in the loop about the going-ons (which is a part of the reason why they are on the side of the numbered), yet can of course still be contacted in addition to this)
- would themselves go, or send their family to one of the safe houses that the FBI offers outside of the echo boundaries thanks to numbered requests
please comment here.

Aftermath

Shou had been in contact with the FBI liaison for the Numbered giving him information about how the yakuza see the Italians and also some of the trading info that he had known before he told the mob to screw off. He may not approach them directly, but will use the arm of the family lawyer types to suggest a meeting and explain things with them.

And now that I am actually thinking and such, Shou can offer to act as a liaison between the FBI and the figurehead of the yakuza clans if they really need to know what is going on. Otherwise, there will probably be some stirings in the clans as they move in to clean up the contorted deals they had to make with the Italians while settling a few disputes that they weren't able to due to the same Italians. There might even be talk of a consolidation among the groups, especially if there is like a Mr. Chan type person around (mr. chan is a reference to a moon child person who basically took over all the various groups in order to keep trade and businesses to flow smoothly though in the movie, he was a bit of an a$$ about it and got killed by his own people. oops).

That alone would make the hackles of some older yakuza members rise since to them, it's almost a repeat of what was happening when dear Alberto waltz in, so I can imagine that they would pull back as things get a bit weird and solidify their own borders and people, so I can almost imagine the Yakuza acting as a kind of guard for their territory and rioters not associated with that area, might actually find themselves being told to back off in no uncertain terms. (This is sort of a thing that is historically accurate in that the Yakuza were street gangs that kept their streets clean of trouble in exchange for goods and stuff. Sort of a proto-police and/or old school clan thing because trouble is bad for business and they do not want bad business to happen.)
