(1602) Couches Along a Corner

‘You say goodbye and I say hello…’ That’s what the quick whirlwind of Konrad bringing Martine felt like to her. No matter, they’d surly meet again soon.

“Good evening, Priscus Roth.” The guy had an oddly rugged look to him. For a Gangrel, he wasn’t half bad. Though the Daeva was sure that someone in his Family found him attractive. She could too, if it weren’t for a thing or two…

But no matter for her thoughts to run amuck. The new woman had stolen away the Seneschal for now. Looking to the Savage family head. “So, book or study club? Something of interest to you?” She shrugged in an attempt to bring up the conversation.

“I’m not sure how you fair with Egyptology, or weapons for that matter, but that section is yet to be taken for our exciting gathering coming ner’ too soon.” Vivian didn’t think the Priscus would bite at joining, but she was at least polite enough to offer. People, particularly Kindred, did surprise her sometimes.

"Oh, uh, no problem," offers Konrad as Katya is quick to escort Martine away from the conversation in short order to conduct an Acknowledgement interview. It left Konrad in place of the two, wondering what he'd just walked into.

A quick nod to Sarah. "Miss Townsend," he says, noting her own introduction. "A book club, huh? I appreciate the invite, but it's not really my thing. I might be able to point Egypt out on a map, but I doubt I'd be able to add much to the chat." He answers with an awkward smile as he shifts his weight to a more relaxed standing position.

"Though I'd bet Keeper Villiers would be all over that sort of thing. As for weapons, I've been known to move some around, but I get the sense that you mean the historical type."

"Do you know how to fence?" Sarah asked, when the Prefect mentioned that he knew how to move weapons around. He probably didn't - fencing was something of a niche hobby, after all. "I used to do it a lot, but haven't had a real chance to return to the sport in the last few months." What with her new sleep schedule and everything associated with it. "I'd actually have to find a new foil..." She mused out loud. All she had was the rapier - museum replica piece she'd bought on a whim to have as a conversation starter. She could use it as a weapon - she'd practiced with it, since its balance wasn't the same as a foil, in any sense.

And if for some reason I ever need to fight another vampire, it would do better than a gun. Not that she knew how to use a gun anyway. Point and shoot, yes, but it was more complicated than that, in the same sense that using a rapier - or any sword - was more complicated than 'pointy end goes in the other guy'.

Nell nodded easily her teal hair swaying with her, not everyone enjoyed studying, she just offered for politeness sake and well...she didn't want to stereotype the Gangrel Priscus.

"Oh. Sorry." Nell says wanting to smack herself. 'Such are the things that slip your mind.' "I'm Nell Cooper. Mehket. Ordo Dracul."

"You know how to fence?" Nell asks blinking a little wildly. Nell's initial thoughts when she heard 'fence' had been 'can you fence' as in stolen goods. It took a bit for the rest of Sarah's words to filter through Nell busy beehive of a mind. "I can barely even throw a punch! I'd be up for learning if you'd like to teach!" a bright smile appears on Nell's sweet face.

"Fencing?" echoes Konrad with more than a little surprise and a small chuckle towards Sarah.

"Now that's pretty old school. I don't know if I'd be any good, but I'd be up for trying my hand at that. You let me know if you need a sparring partner and I'll get my hands on some equipment. Shouldn't be too hard to come by."

At least he doesn't have to be a history buff to wave a sword around. From what he knows of fencing it is pretty safe, and after refusing their book club it might be a nice alternative to finding out more about these new Kindred women.

He looks to Nell next after her eventual introduction. "Ah, suppose I should have guessed it, since you sought out the Grand Wyrm here." He looks to David with a momentary smirk, knowing the man will be having more company before looking back to Nell.

"You a sports fan, by chance?" he asks her with a curious playfulness.
