Conner notes the Gangrel's potential anxiousness fade at the answer to his question. He sighs inwardly; the last thing he needed was someone spreading rumors of Masquerade breach-mongering.
But perhaps Elysium's atmosphere was clouding his better judgement. Conner accepts Mr. Smith's thanks with a grateful nod and a smile. "Of course, and I'm glad to hear that." All that was needed at this point was just an initial seed of interest. The rest would come with time, and possibly prayer. Though he needn't be hasty. There's still plenty more Kindred whose Covenant allegiances are unknown at this point. He was certainly glad of JC's willingness to take him up on the offer of future meetings. "I'm working on finding any old headquarters of the Lancea Sanctum here in Sacramento. Perhaps until then we can find some proper neutral ground, if you'd feel more comfortable there. Hopefully there will be more minds we can sharpen with."
I'm absolutely ready! Just want to leave space for exits. Thanks for the great scene.
