...alongside destroying a large part of the already underperforming NCPD, which now resulted in heightened activity of the gangs within multiple districts of the Night City, thus if you thought that the Night City was already an utter shithole in regards of the living conditions of the normal folk, now it was closer towards a hive city that has been infiltrated by a Nurgle's cult...

Where have I heard that one before?

Otherwise the day after the "Gig" was a rather awkward one, as we could see nearly all of the girls sleeping all around the Martinez's family apartment - cramped, yes, but far better than the alternatives in girls opinion...

You might ask yourself how in the Golden Throne's shine could one flat accommodate this many people?

As most of the girls have began to slowly wake from their impromptu "Slumber Party", the doors to David's room opened to reveal said boy already clothed - a useful habit instilled into him by his early mornings to school, who was then bombarded by a barrage of pillows and colorful curses, as most of the girls slept in pleasant, yet rather revealing clothing, thus giving the young punk quite a show...

Said little punk turned towards his temporary roommate with a pleased grin on his face, but before he could say a thing a metallic hand quickly pressed on his lips, cutting him off before he could utter a word...
