Jacque grinned as Twist seamlessly pivoted his gesture into calling the meeting's first agenda item. It was clever, really. There are plenty who would leap at any chance to keep attention off themselves by casting a negative light on others. Thankfully for him, he was not one of those types.
He listened carefully as the higher chairs answered the call, noting particular information or lack thereof as they discussed. Once it was clear it was his turn, he responded with the confidence only fitting for the Ventrue:
"I am the Whip of Lords and also served as the Herald of the Prince until recently. Needless to say, I am ready to answer the call should the Domain need my service again." His eyes assuredly moved to Alessandra before they floated back to the Judex, "With the guidance of this covenant I've exceptionally increased the resources available to me, which in turn provides a necessary leverage to influence and manipulate the kine allies I've previously promised to this table."
Alessandra's vagueness was not unnoticed, so Jacque followed her lead by not repeating those allies, "I've also been pursuing deeper understanding of the Occult, both for providing long term solutions to previous quandaries as you already know," his hand tilts, motioning to Jennifer, "...and in sharing the Lady Notary's sentiment that the Oaths are an enormous asset to the Invictus. I hope to one day boast a complementing set of those masteries, but it is a long and difficult journey full of study before I get to that point."
