C&C plot ideas - possible spoilers
As of late, I’ve been giving some thought to the information The Shadow has gained through the Major concerning the Wingboys. I’ve been watching some interactions on logs, particularly Seras’ attempted investigation into Weasel’s apartment, and I’ve gained a few ideas I would like to pass by everyone, and see what you think.
Currently, the only information that The Shadow has concerns the Wingboys and the fact that The Major has deduced their involvement in the incident in Korea. I was wondering if it would be alright to propose The Shadow sowing the seeds to attempt bringing down or severely hampering Weasel’s illegal gun trade, by using this avenue to work his way into things.
At this current time, my train of thought is as follows:
~Lamont determines that the Wingboys must be getting their resources from someone
~He looks into their source of weapons and links them to Weasel
~Weasel hasn’t appeared to be making any attempts to keep the fact that he’s dealing illegal weaponry out of his apartment a secret, The Shadow tracks this location, possibly making a sneaky visit to appraise the location and his stockpile
~Either by commissioning Weasel, and setting him up; or some other method of exposing the operation, The Shadow makes an attempt to get Weasel arrested, or at least force him to shut down his operation. There also remains the option that The Shadow would consider using Weasel to track clients who might be up to criminal activities.
Right now, I will admit that I lack a lot of information which would help determine if this progression is even possible. I know the Wingboys are tech-extraordinaires, and that Weasel is a technomancy super-nerd, but I hope, considering The Shadow pals around with the likes of James Bond and Jack Bauer, he might have a way to work his spy-thing and telepathy to get results.
