"Thank you," Mick responded with pleasure that he might have some semblance of the coterie he was once in in San Francisco. "I'm doing fine. Largely getting area acquainted, scoping out who's who... and making sure that everything is set in my haven. Ironically, for our current clan plans, I do squat. The abandoned house I found still has some electricity available for my laptop in the basement, and there I reside. As for time being spent, the Circle, such as it is, needs to meet."

Martha nodded respectfully to Tyler as he entered Court. Seeing that things were about to commence, she made her way over towards the Prince. Pausing in her traverse of the Court to listen attentively to his announcement.
Jillian didn't flinch or even cower hearing her name called by the prince. She figured that her wrists were gonna get slapped for popping claws. But meh, whateves. This wasn't the worst thing that could have happened. Imagine if she had ashed someone.
Jill stood up and said, "Prince Clarke, Members of the court, I appologize for Ms. Sherbotsky and I popping claws and using them in the duels at the last court. Heirophant Dirge," Jill looks around for a minute to see if Staley was there, once she saw he wasn't she says, "I appologize for my clan mate using Claws against you. And I offer ya a major boon as an apology." Jill said. She was prideful and at times stupid, but she aint stupid enough to cross the Prince and not do as she was told.
"Yeah, that's me, I'm the new guy," Scott replied to Ajax, as he eyed the catwalk, "Hey, do you know what this is all about?"
When the Prince began his speech though, Scott quieted down and listened.

Alice smiles at Ariana, 'I belong to the Succubi as well Madam Donovan, and as Mister O'Connor already implied by adressing me with a title of esteem, I hope to be accepted within the First Estate.' Her words said, she looks up when the Prince says his thing.
Alice is kinda surprised at what he said. Though she agrees with the fact that those claws are a big 'Just No', it seems strange to say it so openly. While Jillian replies, Alice starts to think of something to her advantage, well, it could be. This would be a good moment for a Harpy, wouldn't it? I could give it a try...
However, she first waits for the Hierophant's response before saying anything out loud. The risk was too big and she couldn't afford a big social blunder. It wouldn't be fair against her Sister, somewhere on the other side of the world, who Alice promised to try to behave better in public.

Several thoughts ran quickly through Dirge's brain as the Prince made his announcement and the following one by Jillian. The most prominent one Dirge immedately realized was reactionary. No matter how immensely satisfying it would be to tell Jillian just what exactly she could do with that offered boon, the haunt realized that likely wasn't in her best interest or the answer that the Prince was looking for. Besides perhaps they could put this whole thing behind them with this after all.
The blind haunt waited a few moments turning to face Jillian and spoke her reply.
"I thank the Gangrel Priscus for her thoughtfulness and generous offer. I accept hoping that through this we can move on without any lasting negativity between us."
Once she was finished speaking she turned toward the prince and bowed her head in acknowledgement and thanks.

"Then shall we begin?" Asa asked, looking from Dirge to Conner.

Still facing the prince Dirge straitened her self up and replied.
"Prince Clarke, if it should please you I have one simple request that I be allowed to use a weapon i've selected for this duel, a spear. Due to the nature of the weapon I thought that I should ask your permission to use it."
If the Prince gives his permission dirge will immidately go to fetch the weapon and take her place to begin.

Asa will give his permission --- feel free to start a new thread and post initiatives. When it's done, we'll put it back over in this thread in a single post.

About the time that Asa spoke to the those assembled at the evening's event, Victoria had made her way over to conner and realized that things were about to start. As conner moved to take his position or acknowledge the Prince's question, she smiled pleasantly to the man.
"I just wanted to wish you well in your duel Mister Greyson. Have a good fight," she said honestly.
