(2412)Eternal Court

[Alessandra]

A grumble of anger came from her Beast as another weaker Beast entered the room, dark eyes see Marcus. There was a nod of acknowledgement as she mentally pulls the chains on her Beast and place it back where it belongs.

Glancing to Jenn, a bit surprised that she was disengaging from the conversation, but knowing the haunt was not wrong. This was a talk that wasn’t going to go anywhere, but it could still be entertaining, maybe.

She nods her head, “In a moment.” She wanted to see if the Daeva had anything of interest to add, anything to make the conversation worth her time.

What was said though made little sense to the Savage, “There is no secret knowledge, so I will make this easy for your Clan, they have until the next Formal Court to get affairs in order and I expect you to come to Court with a Priscus, or do not come.” Cause this was being turned into a whole affair it didn’t need to be and she was done with it.

Without excusing herself, she walks away to join Jenn. Cain waits a couple heart beats before turning and joining his master.

[Marcus Roman]

Marcus gazes out at the on goings of court, content to sit and watch things play out.

[Jennifer Hazelton]

Jennifer noticed her Clan Mate, Fast Eddie. The proper bows and respect being paid is noted with approval. It is good to see some Kindred do remember the proper forms. Jennifer thought. Jennifer paid the same courtesy in return to Fast Eddie by giving him a nod appropriate for an acknowledged Kindred in the Domain. This, when compared to Jennifer’s behavior in the past to Kindred who were not acknowledged, would signal to those present that Fast Eddie had gone through the proper channels.
Jennifer hears the Alder Prince and understands her stance. The past had proven that some Kindred did not learn from their mistakes. Jennifer strides to a nearby table and sits in a lady – like fashion. As the Alder Prince joins Jennifer, Jennifer gave the Gangrel a look meant to signify commiseration for the Prince’s situation. It was difficult to have to be the one to spell out facts in order to ensure the correct course was taken.

[Alessandra]

Without hearing a reply, not even sure if she had expected one to be honest, she takes a seat across from Jennifer. Cain, sits off to the side, between Ale and the rest of Court, as he always did.

“How have your evenings been Seneschal Hazelton? Anything new and exciting going on?”

[Alicia Silvers]

Deepening her curtsied stance with a deepening nod at having heard the command, and noticing the leave.
"Your Grace." Words spoken more as a formality in both acknowledgement to the words and that their conversation had come to an end. Getting up to near full standing position to be able to lower herself down into a lighter curtsy for the exit to the conversation by the Seneschal.

Not getting up before both of them had properly ventured off and first now noticing the new unexpected arrival, a slight turn of her head as she watched him for a moment before giving him the proper nod of her head to register that she had seen him. Not that she would have been certain if he should or shouldn´t be had it not been because she had noticed him already having gotten one. Then spinning around before walking over towards the ripped man. Bowing her head in an appropriate manner before him as she enters to converse with him.
"Good evening Mr.Roman, all well I hope?" Throwing the new arrival a look for a brief moment then back looking back to the ripped man, leaving an opening for him to join them without formally inviting him.

[Jennifer Hazelton]

Jennifer notes that Mr. Roman and Fast Eddie have remained quiet. Her attention moves onto the one commanding the attention in the room, the Alder Prince.

"I have to agree, I do not know what secret knowledge one could expect to learn. Some Kindred choose to move on without setting thier fellow Clan members up for success. That is all there is to it. " She responds to the topic.
"I hosted an evening at the Salon for Kindred who have recently arrived to get to know one another. My thought is that allies are something one should always be cultivating. I am unsure if we have had much of that lately." She responds earnestly.
"I did want to talk to you on if you would like to visit the Salon for an evening of perusing Art."

"I have been assisting in looking for sculptures for an event that was celebrated in the past. It sounds intriguing. I have not researched it as well as I would like. I plan on researching that, and some goals of my own. You know that I have been focussing on learning different modes of defense. I have pursued Filipino Martial Arts and am considering further practice.

What have you been interested in, Your Grace?"

[Marcus Roman]

Seeing the new guy receive a nod of acknowledgement from the Seneschal, Marcus follows suit and does the same as Alicia approached.

"Ah Ms. Silvers, yes things are well. Just enjoying myself watching others Danse. How goes the flower hunt? Also, have you heard much from Ms. Dawson? I was hoping she could help with the libations and other similar pursuits for the festival but it's been awfully quiet on that front." The Roman sounded a little worried, after all the Daeva clan already has one missing person and Ms. Dawson had promised him quite a lot recently if he put in some work to achieve it.

[Alessandra]

There was a shrug, “Perhaps there was hope that someone would take their hand and offer instructions on how to elect a Priscus. Or perhaps there is simply a lack of motivation and drive. Whatever it is, it is not my problem until they make it my problem and then it will be handled.” And then the Daeva will not be happy.

A small nod, “Ah, well I hope the evening went well. I don’t tend to pry or make it my business when it comes to who allies themselves with who. Unless of course Laws are being broken.” Then she has to.

“An evening perusing art? That does sound like an enjoyable evening, it would have to depend on what evening it was of course. Some things I can move around, and some things I cannot, so let me as soon as you can the date and time.” It would also depend on how social she was feeling, the Savage wasn’t known for her social nights out.

“I’ve been planning an evening at my restaurant to showcase a sculpture I had commissioned. It was a risky piece, as I gave the artist free range with it, and I have to admit, he did a magnifico job. I’ve been ordering some art pieces that will compliment it before having a showcase night, I’ll make sure you get an invitation for it. It’s the first sculpture in my art collection, and I’m quite eager to show it off.” Technically it had been showed off, as it was front and center in her restaurant. But this would be a night dedicated to the piece. And the artist should he wish to make himself known.

“Really? Good for you. How is that going? I’ve never been formally trained myself, but should you want someone to practice with, just let me know.” She had offered that to Jenn in the past.

“Lately it’s been expanding my art collection with a couple pieces from overseas. As well as some, personal, improvements.”

[Alicia Silvers]

Keeping her eyes attached toward the ripped man with a light nod at the comment.
"I have been taking some measures, without a look of the area and how it looks in an aesthetic sense, or what can be used so have my works gone into the more generic aspects sadly enough. But I do have made some strides I hope will be acceptable to you." Lightly tilting her head as she replays the words in her mind. "I must say that I find it quite enjoyable how you assigned the assistance we both offered in this endeavor in such manners." Especially as she is the one who speaks of gardening. "There do is an open line of communication between her and I of course, but she is one busy one. Which is no excuse to be breaking her word though, once given it should be kept."

Throwing an eye to the shy man seemingly hiding away whilst listening to the words being spoken.
"It does seem our latest arrival of the night is a rather shy one though, perhaps you should offer him an invitation to the festivities and see if he will be a bit more relaxed under different circumstances? What night are you planning it for?"

[Jennifer Hazelton]

Jennifer ignored the presence of someone who chose not to interact for quite some time.

To the Alder Prince, Jennifer made a slow nod. This was an indication that she was actively listening. She is right, of course. Jennifer thought. Yet there is no need to continue to think of the Daeva leadership when the Clan in question does not care enough to solve the issue. Jennifer knew that the Alder Prince did not like beating dead horses.
"I am a bit... surprised. Most places, establishing allies are a way of survival. Insulation against attempts on thier good reputation or thier assets." Jennifer shared her interest. "I set the table. If they choose to continue in the spirit the Salon intended, it will serve them well. Yet I do not take a personal interest.

Yes, I have been looking at different artists and looking at different styles of painting. I do find some joy in observing paintings.
That is good that the risk paid off. It can be aggravating to have something unknown while you wait for completion." Jennifer expressed empathy . "I am glad that the risk with the artist resolved itself in that way. I am intriqued about the sculpture. I would appreciate an invitation.

I do not have much standing in the way of art culture. I have been placing most of my priority in other areas.
I am curious if you are free for us to spar sometime after the New Year. I feel that I have become more proficient and would not waste your time, now."
