As the note drops into the armor, it seems to freeze. It's head remains on the table. After a few moments the armor slowly raises it's head back on and looks at Whisper. Then the slight clinking sound begins from deep within the construct. Ghost lights begin to flash in it's eye sockets and it springs up from it's seat.
The Guvners at their bar go quiet all of a sudden, and then someone yells and they all begin rushing toward the armor. The armor itself is jittering and jumping around like it's possessed, ghost lights and sparks emanating from it's many cracks and holes.
Eventually it doubles over and "throws up" a jumbled maelstrom of paper and sparks, causing a small fire next to the booth it and Whisper had occupied. Then it rushes to the other end of the Wayfarer, to the exit to the Clerk's Ward, pursued by the mottled group of Guvners. With a poof, the suit of armor is gone, as well as the Guvners.
Of the small, already burning pile, of notes, you manage to see a few interesting ones, before they're consumed and the bouncer rushes over with a bucket if water.
"If Peasant is screaming, then crank the lever to the toll booth"
"Variable "Gold pieces" must be---"
"Figure out Vecna--"
