    First thing you will notice about Ale is the abundance of her tattoos. They go from her face all the way to her feet, and not much is left bare. The second thing? Her strong Italian accent.

    Seemed others were going to join her in the effort to increase their power.

    This was good.

    She nods to Edward, silent agreement in his decision to peruse the digital side of things. Not something she had much knowledge in.

    Jack offering to work the City Hall and Judicial side was meet with another nod. But he was right, it should come naturally to him. Then he made a good point, one she hadn’t considered. “That seems like it would make for a good avenue to explore. Personally, I keep myself as far from the news as possible. Sort of bad for business.” There was a smirk on her face. Those that knew what she did would understand.

    Even Twist offered to expand her own networks. Looked like the Savage could have a good idea every now and then, and she seemed to sit a little straighter.

    A nod of her head, “That sounds wonderful.”

    Edward appreciated the light touch; each would succeed or fail on their own merits. As it should be.
    He shook his head at Jacque's qualifier, dismissing it, "That would pair well, a valuable adjustment to the plan. I shall incorporate it."

    At Twist's question/suggestion, Edward gave a reserved smile.

    Goes by Jack.

    Educated, scholarly, lawyer, scientist.
    Jack's outward demeanor and tone are a baseline of respectful and calculated.

    He actively debates, persuades, negotiates and even at time tries to intimidate, as core skills of any lawyer worth his salt.

    The faintest gesture of pride pulled at the corner of Jacque's lips as he accepted the feedback. His suggestion was well received by all at the table, and the move would make just one more skill in a certain rival's repertoire obsolete, should he ever show his face in Sacramento again.

    "No objections here, though I am quite curious on what that entails."

    From the shadows of the room Kalos stepped forward, whatever it was that summoned him unseen. Lifting the tray, he approached to table. Starting with Jacque, then Edward and finally Alessandra he laid a box in front of each Kindred. Opening the box, each would find an uncut gemstone glittering against the velvet pad of the box.

    For Jacque.
    For Edward.
    For Alessandra.


    Tucked underneath each uncut diamond was a business card for one of the finer jewelers in the city. Should the new owners of the gems take their pieces there, they would find the cost of cutting, polishing and setting the stone to be covered.

    It wouldn’t be a surprise to anyone that Ale knew very little about gems. Or wore jewelry for that matter. But the fact that Twist had been thoughtful in such a gift, had her desiring to have the stone made into something she could wear and display at Courts.

    Her heads bows deeply to the Judex, “This is most generous and thoughtful Your Grace, thank you.” Her words humble.

    She then stands and proceeds to hand out the gifts she had selected. The order the same as Kalos.

    Each box was wrapped in fine paper and placed before each member. For Jacque, it was a first edition law book. For Edward, fine silver cufflinks with amber adorning them. For Twist, a hand crafted jewelry box made of the finest materials from Italy. If she looked closely, there was an engraving on the bottom.

    Edward lifted the gem to eye level; it was beautiful. "Perfectly gorgeous. You honour me, your Grace."

    And then, the cuff links, something he needed so beyond the thought there was a great utility. "Your excellent taste extends to men's fashion; this will pair perfectly with my attire. Thank you, your Grace."

    For Jacque, an English Translation of Le Language des Fleurs by Charlotte de la Tour with pressed Volkamenia and American Starwort inside the front cover. It was not his place to offer guidance or direction to Jacque, but it was his way of offering welcome.
    For Alessandra, a pair of red, brown, and silver leather earrings. A hard gift to decide on, but the Prince's apparent love for all things leather was one of the few things Edward had to go on.
    For Twist, a Skyline chessboard. Edward had no idea if Twist played, but for the leader of the Invictus, he found it irresistably thematic.

    Due to the site downtime we didn't get to do a fancy wrap up, but I'm going to go ahead and close this scene. We can tie any remaining threads in other social scenes. PM me if there are any issues with this.
