''I thank you for the offer mr.president, but NCR is our biggest customer, and with all due respect sir, its not open war we fear, but rather the loss of a... lets call it a friend.''

By all means, Mr Matthews is free to buy his weapons from wherever he likes. I will not stop him. I do feel, however, that the Van Graffs are in a position to offer a more attractive deal, without any need for opportunistic profiteering.

Mr Matthews, due to the close proxmity between yourselves and the Silver Rush, I can have have some of my people take a sample of our quality merchandise to Gomorrah this afternoon, if that is convenient? Naturally, the no weapons policy at your establishment would have to be waived on this one occasion, but I'm sure you understand.

"Well then, It seems out business is concluded"

The Lobotomite - Ambassador of Black Mountain

*Lobo starts emitting a deep rumble that could only be interpreted as a slow chuckle as he turns to face the Enclave President*

"I will listen...Mr. President."

Sammy Rallo, Chairmen Rep.

*Having heard the Don's bid for weaponry, Sammy chooses to confront him*

"So, why do you need all of these weapons, Don? I know the Omertas are far too reputable to be planning anything... shady. But your purchases beg the question."

*Sammy scrawls something on a notepad produced from his suit, and tucks it back away.*

OOC: I'm dropping my BoS spot, as there's going to need to be a courier to finalize decisions. I'll start posting in a bit.

President Sutler

"The matter in question does not partain to FEV-Mutants themselves, but rather that the FEV-Mutants residing at Mt Charlston are in posetion of something I require - alive and unharmed; I am considering posting a bounty for the capture of this individual, tell me Mutant - what is your relationship to the other Mutants. Bearing in mind of course that my predecessors are responsible for the creation of the majority of your kind."

Please, keep that poison to yourself. Agreed, although we both know what would happen if you end up betraying us

Captain Connors- Boomer Represenative

Excuse me Mr. Van Graff and uh... Mr. Raynor was it? But I couldn't help but hearing that you are both weapons dealers. We just so happen to be facing a shortage of explosive weapons, just 5 years supplies. Disgracefull! Do either of you sell missiles, grenades, artillery, and mini-nukes, or really anything that goes boom?

The Lobotomite - Ambassador of Black Mountain

*A darkness flashes over the Nightkin's eyes*
"I am of the Master's Chosen human, I'd expect one in your position to remember that. Besides, the majority of super mutants would not be intelligent enough to remember the imperfect bond they share with the Enclave."

*Lobo calms himself*
"As for the Enclave scientist you are no doubt referring to, this is entirely for him to decide. He is responsible for the sanity of every Nightkin who now resides on Black Mountain and none of my kin will force him into your custody."

Also, if you happen to wound an attacker andnthere is a legion outpost nearby, we will supply you 50 caps a head.

Omerta Don-Andrew Matthews

*Matthews turns to Rallo before addressing the Van Graff and Gun-Runner Dealers*

I assure you, the shipments are nothing more than our normal allotment of personal-firearm ammo, which is allowed by all the families.

*a slight grin is barely detectable on his face as he turns away*


We will fulfill our end of the bargain for the current contract that we've agreed to, and our caps will be delivered to your New Vegas location as scheduled. However, because the business dealings as of late between our two groups has left a rather sour taste in my mouth, the idea of future contracts is certainly in question. I don't appreciate being extorted Mr. Johnson, even if you did rectify the situation. It is the principle of the matter.

I'm very...careful..with my finances.


*Matthews takes a sip of his Champagne*

Of course, I would very much like to test out your energy weapons. I've been considering a changing of our armament for quite some time. The recent business dealings with the Gun-Runners has only increased my interest.

A future contract with the Van Graffs may be in order.

President Sutler

*Sutler moved his hand closer to his Gauss Pistol*

"It'd be prudent not to threaten me Mutant, and as for the Dr Henry it's clear that you're willing to sell morality for results; Henry was a brilliant geneticist but as amoral as could be expected of him, he was there at Mariposa as just a young scientist barely out of education - he found the whole ordeal most fascinating. What-ever value he is to your kind now I'd consider you to remember he just-to-say covers his previous attrocities; maybe he grew a heart, who knows, I never did try to figure out deserters. I am obliged to persue methods of bringing him to justice before the American people on the crimes of desertion, theft and proliferation of classified, secret and top secret materials and assisting an enemy during a state of war; he's crimes constitute treason and I'll see him brought to justice for it."

Ooc I am now using my tablet to type

Robin Van Graff - The Van Graffs

Very well, Gloria will visit Gomorrah later this afternoon with four of our guards and a crate of Plasma Rifles, all in perfect condition. Weapons will not be relinquished upon entry. If you wish to try them out then there is plenty of wildlife on Freeside to use as target practice. Naturally, you will pay for any ammunition used.

If you are satisfied, we can then discuss prices.

*Azmond is hoping for a good show here, it will give him a reason to get rid of a few threats to the legion

The Lobotomite - Ambassador of Black Mountain

*His eyes briefly flash to the Bumper Sword leaning against the table next to him*

"I am not threatening anyone human, merely speaking of history. You are doing the same, whatever Dr. Henry did before he saved my people from madness is irrelevant to us. He may not care about us, but he has earned our respect nonetheless."

*He notices a slight smile from the man sitting next to the Courier*

Sammy Rallo, Chairmen Rep.

*Sammy gave the Don a long stare when he wasn't looking.*

"Excuse me Gentlemen, I need to step outside... think about some things."

*Sammy stood up and left the room, closing the door behind him, trying to hide his sudden discomfort..*

(OOC: Going to bed, then School, this seems like an appropriate point for me to finish the day.)

Jacobstown Representative - Neil


*Neil smirks and looks Sutler in the eyes*

"Yes, Mr. Sutler, I will listen, because, unlike some, I see all variations of humans and mutants as equals and am willing to hear all parties out."



*Neil's brow drops and a slight twitch can be observed on the left side of his mouth*

"I assure you, Mr. Sutler, that Jacobstown is not in possession of anything belonging to you. I'm going to assume that you are talking about Dr. Henry, who, and you probably know this already, is living in Jacobstown because he disliked the practices, or rather atrocities, of your group. And if you think even for a second that we will throw him -- who found a cure for the Nightkin and who has helped more mutants than anyone in recent memory -- to your wolves, then you're insane. The choice would be up to Henry of course, but, knowing what you probably have in store for him as I'm sure you have labeled him a "deserter," I doubt he will go with you, and we will not let you or anyone else take him Jacobstown."

*Neil calms himself and turns to Lobo*

"Thank you for your support, it is much appreciated. I have other, more promising things to discuss with you once our problems with Mr. Sutler have been worked out."

Edit:



*Neil's lip curls*

"You're delusional, Sutler. Your concerns about Henry are completely irrelevant to us. He has done nothing but help the mutants in Jacobstown, and we will not stand for your views of "justice" infringing on the lives of anyone in Jacobstown, which is, by the way, territory out of your jurisdiction."

Captain Conner- Boomer Represenative


*Conners stands up, his face red*
WE'LL HAVE NONE OF THAT AROUND HERE. If anybody pulls thier weapon out, or threatens attack again, they'll be blown up.
*Gestures to armed guards around room, all with grenade lauchers*
This is supposed to be a peaceful meeting! You Savages may act like that out here but no "President" or Centurion or Casino boss will act like this while these proceedings are on Boomer property.
*Sits back down, panting slightly*

Omerta Don- Andrew Matthews

Calm yourself Captain, no one will be shooting anyone here.

*eyes some of the Boomers in the room*

Although it would be preferable if those men with the ordinance perhaps stepped outside? Your men have more fire-power than anyone else in the room after all. Seems bad form for what is-as you yourself said-a peaceful convention.

*Azmond glares at connor

Are you sure thats wise? Not only do the other group members here havebackup, I have my own little way of supporrt.

President Sutler

*Sutler snorted derisively.

"Then your both fools, or perhaps I am for expecting pragmatism from you; what I've heard from Henry's confidents... regardless, I knew it was an impossible errand. My position however demands that I try. Your protecting a criminal and a thief who spent years developing biological weapons specifically against your kind, all he's done is repaid what he owes you whilst I offer you a blank check for something - on my part - entirely symbolic. As for my juristiction, it remains infinite; we are dealing with a man whom betrayed and stole from my people, don't expect anything less from me."

Sutler cast his gaze at the Vault Dweller shouting at him.

"That would be an unwise move on your part, I suggest you listen to the advice of the mobster over there and leave us too it... and that's Federal Property."

Omerta Don-Andrew Matthews

*turns to the Courier seated at the table*

I was wondering if I may speak with you on matters?

Captain Conner- Boomers Represenative



But this is our home, aren't we entitled to guard the many people here with unknown intent while our most vulnerable are only a short distance away?
Mr. Azmond, as Mr. Matthews said "we have more firepower then anyone else in the room" and your backup will have to come along ways to get here.
