    Elle

    Even if the preparations of her new haven had been draining most of her will to go out partying and enjoying herself Elle just can't help it but keep a silly drunken smile while holding a glass of whatever young adults drunk these days to fuck and forget - was that part of her hunting strategy? For sure not, she wouldn't dare hunting in the rack... but keeping a few handy contacts for later, that was a different story.

    When the Daeva finished the stairs that led her to the court underground she was no longer the drunken available girl. Despite the way her innards churned and turned into a vigorous knot as her beast rioted Elle was now in control.

    Her outfit was a re-edit of the previous one she used for court, a small black dress a leather jacket and some black heels. A few silver jewelry including her pierced nose, her rebellious white hair hanging just like if she had woke up - and she had just woke up - and a curious mix of attitude and playfulness in her.

    She saw the Keeper Mable Wood , one of the kindred she had met before and a slender man Seth Kind engaging in conversation - both with weak beasts. The Carthian decided to approach and engage in conversation. As she did so she nodded to her clan elder Twist from a distance, just a way to let her know she was still around. Secretly she hoped to avoid notice of the Prince and her limb devouring hell hound - she was wary of them and they were cause for discomfort and fear.

    "Keeper Wood, nice to see you tonight." She didn't pry much giving the conversation couple room to continue by themselves if they so desired. It seemed the night was already on and several kindred were attending to, other potential acquaintances.

    Dirt Nap scans the room, his fixed stare not focused on any one person in particular, just watching the patterns of movement. He is slightly apart, not in active conversation with anyone at the moment, just watching and listening, content to be seen to be in attendance and in turn see who else attends.

    Nosferatu Curse
    Something is...off about Patience’s face. Or is it her body as a whole, the way she carries herself? Something’s not quite right in any event, though you can never seem to say exactly what that may be. A subtle asymmetry of her features, an odd cock of the eye or twist of the lips? A barely detectable wrongness in the set of her limbs, in the rhythm of her walk? An unlocatable strangeness: it’s all the more disquieting because that ‘something’ can’t be named, tracked down, and assigned a place. In fact, it seems to change moment to moment, depending on where she is in the room and where you are in relation to her.

    Her discussion with the Prince and Reeve at an end, Patience retreats to the periphery of court.

    The Bishop settles in a chair to watch the maneuvering of the Damned with filmy eye. Contemplating the developments of the evening thus far.

    After retreating from the Prince's company, Derek makes his way over to the mysterious form of Elle , in the company of Seth Kind and Mable Wood . He overhears the mention of stepped up security and deigns to field an answer.

    "Security measures are being considered in response to present threats, but there is nothing of immediate concern, merely preventative," states the Reeve dispassionately.

    "Hello, cousin," he adds as an afterthought before turning to face Elle and almost shrivels in the swell of her predatory presence.

    "Hello, Ms...?" the hesitation and lilt in his voice suggesting a question. "I don't believe we've met. I am Reeve Mitnick of Clan Mekhet. A pleasure to meet you." There is some shakiness to his voice that betrays his nervous nature.

    Elle

    Noticing the approach of another kindred Elle makes room to welcome the stranger.
    The Daeva realizes then - once he finally speaks - that he was in fact a kindred she had shared but a few moments in the previous court. Maybe it was the insecure manner or the lack of beast that made him so easy to just be dismissed - a useful trick for sure...

    Once he finally reveals the reason for his approach with his questions and introduction it seemed to become a bit clearer how Reeve Mitnick rolled with his many cloaks? And how many did the Reeve wore?

    Determined to know more, she engages in the conversation.

    "I'm Elle Grey." She seems she was about to add information but the Reeve continues and she remains quiet.

    "I don't think we have met, no, I would remember for sure..." The Carthian kindly replies, even smiling, her words contrasting with the obvious fact that his bland manner made him quite forgettable and his cloaked beast somewhat more imperceptible.

    "It's a pleasure to Reeve..." As if finally noticing the man's shakiness she inquires: "... is everything ok Reeve?" Concerned domain dwellers always tried to know more about what bothered the kindred in charge of everyone's security - Elle was a concerned domain dweller, it was a natural question.

    As the Archon departs, stoic Lenora watches. She remains for a moment, allowing for the growth of a comfortable distance between her and the Alder. Then she departs, ascending the stairs to greet the cool Autumn night.
