Another evening, another court. This evening started with blood though, blood to help heal the wounds Cody had given him. He had been distracted and didn't take care of it immediately. Better late than never.
He found himself looking forward to the event as it was an opportunity for the ever outgoing Carthian to meet more and more people. Last court had several new arrivals, but what about tonight. He arrived in his usual black suit but with a blue pinstripe shirt underneath. Suits were very versatile. With the right change of shirt and tie the same suit because many. He had more than one, but the black one had become his favorite. It always fit and always looked good.
Stepping down the stairs into Elysium he saw he was not the first. His dark passenger noticed as well. Strange that his fellow Carthians would cause such fiery inside of him. All his beast could focus on was there quick and painful destruction, which he knew to be counter-intuitive to his future. He pushed the passenger back into it's cage and stepped off the steps with a smile.
That was because one Kindred had not set off alarms in his nature. A Kindred he had shared some special time with recently. Approaching Martha, Gabrielle, and Konrad he said, "Good evening Priscus Roth and senora d'Orleans. A pleasure to see both of you."
He then turned to look directly at Martha, a sly, flirtatious smile creeping onto his face. They had been close, he knew he could call her by name, but he also knew her penchant for titles and respect. He would honor that...for now. "Keeper Villiers, as always it is a pleasure to see you. You look quite innocent this evening. I hope you haven't you been doing anything naughty." Maybe he wouldn't keep things above board for long after all.
