Assembly, Anyone?

[Sand]

A return nod 4/ Nemo. Statement = true.

A thoughtful look w/ Knot's early words. Despite that no offense = almost as bad as advance apologies. But @ least comments =/= actually offensive. Just b/c it wasn't planned didn't mean it wasn't currently the case.

Putting down water bottle, notebook is pulled out w/ pencil.

"Recognized by the Council as under the Authority of the Assembly... Ok. That's good to know." A pause, "If that is the way the Assembly goes..." Didn't want to jump to conclusions. Simply note one route for when that decision needed 2/ b/ made.

A small sound @ verbalization of the Free Council tenant. New page. New note. Small. 4/ herself 4/ later.

Stepping back, allow a show of privacy 4/ their vote.

[Bacchus]

While Bacchus accepted the paper and eventually the marker, his attention never left Cricket. He backed off the animal comparisons, so that was a start. Now they just had to deal with the bitterness. Or, rather, someone who was still listening would have to deal with the Libertine's bitterness.

Bacchus had already said he wanted an assembly free of the Council's derangement, and so he didn't see the need for a private vote. Still, he wrote his support for secession and handed it to Banshee.

"So how do we tell the concilium when we secede?" Eyes flicked to the other magi before he reclaimed his cup from the cooler. "I vote costumes. Dress up like George Washington and his peeps and invade the concilium. We could buy some tea bags to throw at the councilors if they try anything or get smug."

He doubted they'd appreciate the assembly showing up with muskets, but the Shaman still smirked at the thought of what they could do. "What was that flute they used to play with the drums back then? We should get one. Do a procession to Yankee Doodle."

Sip. Sip.

[Banshee]

Banshee receives a call, alarmed she takes it. Disappearing from the event.

Banshee Exits the Scene

[Bacchus]

One fish, two fish, bye fish, finished.

"So is that a no on the costumes?" Bacchus said as a chunk of the caucus left. "I'm feeling like that's a no to the costumes."

Eyes flicked to Knot and then Cricket.

"I voted independence if we're still doing this." Confused and a bit nervous he continued to sip from his cup. After a few sips turned to a few gulps the empty cup was placed back on the table and the Shaman's attention switched to Cricket. "Stop calling me an animal Cricket and we can call this little grudge match closed."

It was as good an offer as he could manage. They didn't seem to have similar beliefs, but the very least he could do was offer a clean slate to start over on.

With that he finally turned his attention to Sand.

"Your welcome to stay, but would you prefer to do so as an observer or a member of the Assembly?"

[Sand]

"I would advice no costumes." Drily.

Costumes = children (usually)
Appearance thus = children

Soft sigh.

"I will make sure I save the contact info." B/c more info was never bad.

To Bacchus, "Observer for the time being, I think. But if the offer remains open, I'll definitely keep it in mind."

I think it might just be down to the couple of us so do we wanna wrap the scene or is there more to talk about?

[Bacchus]

Message received. Bacchus thought the costumes would have been funny, but he wasn't going to make everyone else look bad just to make a few puns.

Sand gets two thumbs up as Bacchus then moves to repack the drinks and pizza.

"You want any of the pizza?"

I think we got the bases covered so I'm good to wrap. Fun scene!
