*Ana sat in the library wearing her usual clothing,one leg over the other at the knee her hands rested on her lap she sat in the chair as if waiting for someone or at the very least expecting someone*
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 8:20:03 PM)
*The black BMW rolled to a halt at the curb and Marc got out in a 3 piece black suit with a black shirt and white tie on. He straightened his tie and headed for the Chantry, and shortly was inside, thanking the attending ghoul, and quietly heading to the library...*
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 8:20:42 PM)
*Marc walked in, straightened his tie, and smiled* Good evening Miss Montrose.
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 8:21:05 PM)
*Ana heard Marc's voice before she saw him*Good evening Mr.LaSalle...have a seat if *lifting one of her hands and motioning to one of the many empty chairs nearby*
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 8:21:30 PM)
*He walked over and parked himself in the proffered chair* of course. I hope the night finds you well?>
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 8:23:27 PM)
*she watched him with her eyes only*thus far it does yes....Now then to elborate a bit more on what was talked about lastnight or do you wish to wait until you can speak with Ms.Snow?
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 8:25:08 PM)
I don't. I am so far behind the power curve here I doubt I can manage any... leverage, let's say. I do indeed intend to speak to her, but I am not sure if making a decisive move when so many people know a lot more than I is anything but a foolhardy play.
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 8:27:42 PM)
*she gave a slight nod of her head*Young and wise very good signs indeed..Very well I shall inform you of what you need to know for now....As you were told lastnight the Prince and Mr.Vargoss are being less than cordial,by making several scenes at Court...*she paused a moment to see if he was going to say anything on that matter*
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 8:30:00 PM)
*he steepled his fingers in front of his face* what I foresee is Mr Vargoss and the Seneschall calling the prince on his usurping power without a single valid primogen's marque. Not if, but when. As such, I would think the clan Tremere would back Mr. Vargoss unless the Regent thought us powerful enough to assume the throne for ourselves. Given the Sheriff's lack of regular presence, I doubt that is the Regents feeling, but it is *not* my place to assume the Regents mind. I will ask the question humbly when I meet the Regent, but until then, I'm playing stupid.
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 8:30:53 PM)
(Excuse me, the prince on *her* usurping)
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 8:37:10 PM)
*she gave a slight nod of her head*You are correct on several points Mr.LaSalle...The Seneshal and Mr.Vargoss along with the Tremere in this city are indeed backing the Ventrue to for the lack of a better term kick the Malkavian Prince out of her seat...The Archon is here for that reason as well she is also here on the Pontifex of Connticuts orders to help do what needs tobe done to establish the Tremere more so in this city..The Regent is less than pleased by this of coruse but he has little say in the matter...As for the lack of a Sheriff, I intend to bring this fact up at Court(which I can not attend but the ST's have been notified) I believe he needs to be removed from his station and replaced with obviously a more competent one...If you do not agree by all means I wish to know this....Our lacking of a Primogen is also an issue however I have not come up with a solutioin to that issue,unless you have any ideas on the matter?
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 8:40:57 PM)
*He shook his head* Mensonge is, regardless of anything else - absent. That boeds poorly for our clan as he is in a seat and obviously his absence is either negligent - given your own disdain for the situation - or serves a purpose only he, or he and the Regent, are aware of. To that end, I believe removing him to be in the clans best interest. Losing the position is a lesser political blow than to hold it and continue to be in-effective to the point of uselessness. That being said, can I ask a question of yourself, Miss Montrose?
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 8:45:16 PM)
*she gave another nod of her head*It indeed does look poorly for our clan as you heard Naji say lastnight at the Calypso*furrowing her brow for a split second* Iam uncertain how Ms.Snow or the Regent feel about the Sheriff's lack of appearance for I have not been able to speak with them on the matter...If I shall have to step on toes to do what needs to be done then so be it*said matter a factly*...And of course you may Mr.LaSalle,that is after all why Iam here..
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 8:46:44 PM)
What happened, if I am not overstepping my bounds, that you are no longer Primogen? Because, honestly, I'm not... we have to have a primogen and one who's present but the thought of being thus as short as my years as Kindred are scares the ever loving shit out of me.

(WB. need a repost?)
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 8:53:57 PM)
*she was silent for a moment as she just looked at Marc* The Regent thought that I would be more useful for other matters within the Clan....How he managed to see this Iam left wondering to be honest with you...And do not let such a thing scare you as you said,it is not as difficult as you think...
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 8:57:04 PM)
*He shook his head* It's not the difficulty I'm worried about, I've plead cases before the circuit court of appeals and filed suits involving hundreds of millions of dollars. What concerns me is how it will paint the clan that our primogen is not three months in the city and barely worth calling anything but neonate. *He frowned* It means there's no one else, and while I am... I'll do whatever the clan needs me to do, I just fear it'll make myself a target and our clan look weak.
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 8:57:38 PM)
And I've already made one bone headed mistake in the short time I've been here...
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:01:49 PM)
Human Court is vastly different than Kindred Court which Iam certain you are aware the principles are still there but different...And we can not be perfect all the time no matter how we see ourselves...And if you wish for the seat of Primogen then you need to speak up at Court not to mention have the backing of your Clan..Primogen's should be choosen by there Clan not the Prince*frowning a bit at that* Speak with Ms.Snow or the Regent on the matter if you feel you must which I do suggest,there input in such matters is very wise indeed...
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:02:42 PM)
I am. I wasn't aware miss Snow was a Tremere until you mentioned it now, or I had intended to avoid the Archon like the plague, but now that I know I will indeed be speaking with her as I indicated.
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:02:51 PM)
I will find out what the clan wishes.
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:04:38 PM)
Now then as for Mr.Vargoss the Tremere are backing him as I stated previously,however none know of this of course which is how it should indeed stay...And yes the Archon is of House and Clan Tremere,Iam not certain many know this which is why I did not say such when you were speaking with Naji...
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:05:26 PM)
I will keep my whore mouth closed. *he smirked* And I won't get in anyone's way.
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:06:19 PM)
*she gave him a curious look at his choice of words*May I ask why you say it like that?..And I doubt you will be in anyone's way..
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:08:14 PM)
*He waved a hand* Being facetious. Forgive me. And indeed, I won't be in anyone's way, I'm fairly certain I've little to no reputation in Kindred society yet except perhaps as a bit of a joke. Give it time, I'll change that.

Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:12:54 PM)
*she shook her head a bit*I see....and why do you say that you do not have a voice everyone has a voice...
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:14:18 PM)
I didn't say I didn't have a voice, rather, I don't see as how I have a reputation that carries much weight... *yet*. I've had too little time to develop an eternities worth of power. But that's okay. Better to be invisible until you're in a position of power.
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:18:03 PM)
*she gave a nod of her head*I stand corrected.....And a reputation sometimes is not always needed for you to carry weight,granted it does help a great deal*slight smirk*...Being invisible even in postions of power is useful for people tend to forget you are there and speak without thinking..
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:20:44 PM)
I had hoped that by coming to New Orleans I would find a place where there wwere more powerful Thaumaturges I could learn under and remain invisible among the neonates until I was skilled enough to not need to worry. Instead I find myself one of only a small handful, and thus I need to learn more and faster than before. Speaking of which, when can I trouble you for time studying ritual application....?
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:25:04 PM)
There were more in our city however they were transferred for reasons that Iam not aware of,and our numbers have slowly dwindled since then*she took an unneeded breath and exhauled slowly* Myself and the Sheriff have been here the longest besides a few others of different Clans...The Regent that we have in New Orleans has not been here that long either...
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:25:41 PM)
*he frowned* Why such an old city isn't home to more of our numbers I'll never know.
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:25:49 PM)
(Do we need rolls witnessed to learn rituals?)
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:26:20 PM)
*she shook her head*Neither will I...And as for helping you with the Rituals you requested I am avaliable whenever you are(and yes you do)
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:26:51 PM)
(Hrm. Gotta make that happen...) I hate to be intrusive, but I know far too *few* rituals.
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:29:26 PM)
*she smiled a for a single moment* You are young of course you do not know that many..However I know enough to help you Iam certain...(usually I BB learning them and who helped me learn them IC made rolls then witness rolls etc..)
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:30:05 PM)
(I shall do that. BB will be far more useful in this case. Do you have to roll or just I?)
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:30:21 PM)
(nah just you)
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:30:35 PM)
(I don't want to hassle GG or Jme right now since they are both in scene. And how many can we learn in a week? Just one?)
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:31:10 PM)
( there are times for rituals so only one at a time...)
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:31:23 PM)
(Gotcha. Thankee sai.)
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:31:37 PM)
(the Ritual times are on the forums somewhere..lol)
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:31:57 PM)
(oh and btw you can learn enrypt missive ana knows it now =-)
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:33:50 PM)
(Good good! That's level 1 or 2? 1 I am thinking....)
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:33:58 PM)
(lvl 1)
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:34:03 PM)
(that one takes a week to learn)
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:34:14 PM)
(oh and I always put the effective date in my bb as well)
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:35:08 PM)
(I'll do that most likely tomorrow. Do you need to go soon?)
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:35:19 PM)
(nope)
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:36:13 PM)
(*nod* i unfortunately do. I need to... uh... do some ST type stuff tonight.... >.> <.< )
Anastasia Montrose (Dec 5, 2011 9:36:37 PM)
(ah okay hun thanks for the sceneage =-)
Marc LaSalle (Dec 5, 2011 9:37:18 PM)
(No, thank you! I will bb Marc learning Encrypt Missive from Ana - or BB it anyway and indicate that he'd learned it from Ana as it were.)
