January 30th, 1623. At the docks, noon. Andromeda will be there as well.
Ic: Not long has it been since Seria was attacked, and Mr. Thompson could see it himself that it was still a royal mess. He knew for a fact that Andromeda would be around here, and spoke to O'Reilly about it. The both agreed to scour both Seria and Truesdale, to see if they could gather clue in Dula. They both smelled something fishy, but it was their own nature. Dula had a wicked underground operation system, and Swire Inc was usually behind it. Thompson was more than willing to gather up members and see for himself.
Plus? As old as he was, he knew the rumors about what happened to Andromeda and his friends, and he wanted to expose the company. Give Truesdale and Seria a reason to destroy the Dulan royal family once and for all. He watched as a couple of his men were moving timber out of the way and helping some locals.
"Careful with those timber, young chaps! You don't want to hurt more people, it would put us all in a sticky wicket, eh wot!" And with an audible harrumph! he would skiddle over and spot a familiar brunette face.

Andromeda had gotten word that one of the companies who supported his friends was around. At least it was now run by that Thompson guy. he'd met him before, pulling some Bounty Hunting work for him once in awhile. It's probably the only company that actually wasn't afraid of him by now. Though Thompson was making a huge risk being around here. He was still a Dulan trading company despite all the support it had in assets.
For now, Andy breathed in the cold January air as he wandered around the docks, possibly with his son. Andy stuck his hands in his pocket, looking around at the damage. A pang of grief and memory moved through him, as he knew how chaotic it must've been. His mind was eased though. Reuben, Benedict, and his friends were safe.
Andy turned his head and noticed the old pudgy man looking at him, and the man gave him a half smile and a wave.
"Nice to see you again, Mr. Thompson."

Sitting on one of the rooftops, masked and costumed, was The Star Man, watching over his family in hidden silence as he watched his brother meet the man. Andy trusted him, but Ceph still was hesitant. He'd only speak with the man in private, when it was only Andy, this Thompson guy, and himself. He didn't want to risk a random dock worker letting slip that Andy and The Star Man were buddy buddy.
He continued to watch in silence, not saying a word as he observed, ready to act if necessary, and slip into any structure after Andy gave the signal.

Andy's son was indeed there. Reuben was feeling a little bit better now that he knew that Caden was still alive and safe, as was Lapis, Julian, and Benedict. He wasn't all too sure about the man that Andy was meeting, but he simply stuffed his hands in his pockets, watching the two of them from a distance. He might be on good terms with Andy, but...
It would probably make people less willing to trust him if he was seen in public on good terms with the man so often.

Thompson had the same concerns as Cepheid and Reuben had about associating with the most wanted pirate in Dula. Wouldn't be good on his work if he was associating with him. So once he spotted the man, he would motion for him and then walk over to the storage compartment area. It was out of the eyes of of any Serians, and his workers would know better than to bother to come in. As soon as he spotted Andy, he would hold his arms out and give him a big grin.
"Andromeda Callidum! It's been a dog's age, eh wot! How have you been doing, you scoundrel, you?" Yep, he was pretty friendly this time around. Thompson would them hold his hand out to give Andy a hearty shake. "Nice to see you again, eh wot!"

Andy knew his son and Cepheid were around as well, watching over him. Perhaps he could introduce them to Thompson, especially since this man was one of his buddies, and worked with his close friends. He did wonder how Greg was doing, after all. Either way, the man would walk over to the storage system, looking at the man. Well he'd certainly gained weight since the last time he'd seen him. Andy grinned and then shook the man's hand.
"Indeed. I believe the last time I had to recover some stolen crates of spices, right?" He then smiled. "My brother and son should be here shortly as well. Maybe."

When he saw Andy and the man enter the storage area, Ceph would look around quickly and, after ensuring it was secure, quietly slip over there, entering via a different route and coming up behind Mr. Thompson.
He'd not make a sound for a few minutes, letting Andy and Mr. Thompson talk for a moment.

Upon seeing the two of them, and Cepheid, head on over to the storage area, Reuben nodded to himself. Taking a glance around to make sure that no one was watching him, he slipped on over to the storage compartment to meet up with Andromeda, Cepheid, and Thompson.
However, he didn't say a word as he adjusted his coat, though he did nod at Cepheid.

Thompson was as friendly as ever. He totally didn't mind the fact that Andy's son and brother would be here, in fact he was pretty excited to meet them, and in the case of Andy ever getting jailed, Thompson would have to help break him out along with the others. Might as well learn who they are, either way. He would tip his hat towards Reuben and Cepheid.
"Nice to meet you two, eh wot!" Thompson grinned before adjusting his hat again and then putting his hands in his pockets. "This mission mostly has to do with everyone's least favorite company, eh wot."

Andy wasn't sure what he would do now. After all, this was going to be an important mission and he knew what might head out of this. It could go either very badly or go perfectly, and it could end with then knowing the secrets to Swire Inc. It was so tempting for the child victim of the company. He would definitely pour his efforts into all of this. Andy folded his arms and then nodded to Thompson.
"And you know me. I'll do whatever to screw up that company's plans." He then smirked. "So what is the plan?"

Showing himself, The Star Man gestured widely in greeting to the man before him. "Ah, Sir Thompson, 'tis a very good honor to meet you, I've heard of your exploits in these tough times." He would shake Thompson's hand, having a firm grip. "I am, as I am sure you know, The Star Man."
He listened and put his hands on his hips. "Yes, I'd very much like to put that corpulent company back in its place. Dula's claim to innocence strikes me as a rather boorish claim, and completely false." He'd flick his cape slightly for theatrical effect. "I have very little doubt it was this company which set up the attack for the purpose of bescumbering the Truesdale name. With the sister kingdoms at ends, Dula would be in a better political position."
