She smiled and offered a nod of her head, "You are welcome Mr Fierce! I hope you have a pleasant evening, and I will be looking forward to hearing from you in the future." she says.

Letting the Bailiff deal with Jared, Martha nods happily to Miss Keyes. "Splendid! I hope your plan works well, Miss! Do please keep me informed of your progress and do visit again! I should very much wish to speak with you about a great many topics, miss!" Martha smiles cheerily, sneaking a glance to the shape and outline of Catherine's knees under the skirt, before looking back to Catherine's eyes. "Was there anything else, we can help with?" a sincere question, happily offered.

"Of course." she said with a seated bow. "I have the impression that we will see much of each other in the coming years. Do you have my telephone number?" she asked as her hands once again went into the folds of her dress and withdrew a small piece of paper, but no pen.
"Er.... " she looked confused for a moment, "Do you have a writing implement, or something sharp like a needle."

"Yes, Miss...indeed!" With a nod of agreement, Martha produces a ballpoint pen from the inside breast pocket of her blazer and hands it carefully to Catherine. While she didn't get the impression of imminent violence, Martha was wary. But, a happy enough smile accompanied her gesture of offering the pen.

Catherine smiled, “Thank goodness, a pen. They have their own ink.” She scribbled down her number and handed both the paper and the pen back to the herald.
“If there is anything I can do for you, I can accept calls and texts. And I would like to speak more, Ms Villiers.” she stood, “However, I do believe I have a prior arrangement with a story circle, thank you for hearing me out, and giving me your aid.” she curtsied to those present, and if she is not stopped she leaves.

Catherine is not stopped and Martha accepts the number and pen with a graceful nod. "I do hope you have a good evening!" she chirps as Catherine makes her exit.
Tucking the pen and number away for safe keeping Martha ponders, Ms indeed... and pouts as Catherine makes her way out.

Dillon carefully watches both times that Martha's little hand came close to Catherine's, as they pass the pen back and forth. Call him paranoid, or just very, very mindful of the parameters of his duty. No offense to the Mekhet Bard, but the crack about using something sharp cause his brow to twitch.
He regularly carries many sharp objects.
But the Gangrel Deputy's expression remains politely neutral, before shifting to an encouraging smile. Attempting to dispel the Herald's pout.

Daniella watches the exchange and smiles at both woman. When Catherine uses the term Ms, Daniella frowns slightly, making a note to speak to her about it, and offers Martha a friendly smile. Seems it was a rather successful evening she thinks.

Martha offers a happy smile to Dillon to match the one he offers her. His smile can lift many a woe.
