Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 9:25:52 PM)
*A near cloudless sky... He was getting used to the lamp light, it felt almost as natural as the slither of moon that was out tonight, bearly obscured. He had walked here, as he walked everywhere, moving from street lamp to street lamp as the world around him changed from dirty, to business like, to garden homes. Beautiful garden homes, arranged in such perfect order. Charming place really. He sung an old Russian Folk song, the beautiful poetic justice of which was comical only to him. It made him smile like a viper, his eyes always alight with predators desire. At last he stopped before the Elders door, adjusting himself before he knocked.*

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 9:29:21 PM)
The tea had been made and the table set out on the balcony, Audreys white wicker furnishings decorated with pretty rose floraled pillows. The many flowers and plants she had out there were just beginning to bloom, filling the air with a sweet aroma that mingled well with the Red Rose tea, her favorite despite its cheapness. The elder sat waiting, facing the old wooden screen door that opened out to her balcony, giving them both a pleasant smile as they were escorted by one of her servants. "Oh dears... dont you look wonderful this evening.." The old woman rising from her chair to greet them both with open arms as she shuffled around the table which sat in the middle of the room.

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 9:32:04 PM)
Amaryllis had arrived just after Mikhail and came up behind him with a slow swagger...She did indeed look rather wonderful, and tossing her red hair over her shoulder she stepped past Mikhail with a grin and moved to greet Natalia warmly, her smile for the elder was one of respect and admiration....."You look lovely this evening yourself.."

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 9:33:21 PM)
*Letting Ama pass and greet the Elder, he waggled his eyebrows at her over Ms. DeCuirs shoulder, saying nothing, even while his hungry eyes sized up her dress. With a smile like the Devil himself, he opened his arms to greet the Elder.* Ms. Rich! Shiva save us, it's always a pleasure to see you. *Pausing, he took in a deep breath through his nose, closing his eyes, letting his auspex flare up breifly* Mmmm, tea! Some traditions of hopsitality are ageless and perfect, aren't they?

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 9:37:03 PM)
Dressed in her favorite designer Coco Channel, Audrey was in a simple stripped cardigan and slacks though she dripped of white pearls upon her ears, neck, wrist and fingers. "Thank you, dear." She took Amaryllis in her arms first but reached over toward Mikhail, pulling the vampire into her little loving circle for a quick squeeze before releasing them both. "That is very true, Michael. One should always have such things in mind when expecting company.... even if they do not partake it is the mere gesture that counts." Nodding in agreement with him as she went back over to her chair and sat, gesturing gracefully for them to join her. "How are you two these evenings? I heard of your new position, Michael. Are you finding it to your liking?"

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 9:39:57 PM)
Drama, politics and gossip? Making enemies of every Kindred you dare question the actions of? Hungry eyes on my back at all times?.... Yes, just my cup of tea, pardon the pun. *Laughing, he waits for her to sit before realxing into a chair, tossing one leg casualy over another, resting his hands in his lap.* I was honestly shocked that none of our blood jumped at the chance.

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 9:41:48 PM)
She seated herself with a graceful slide, smiling at Audrey and listened to Michael speak about his position, feeling /almost/ sorry for him. Save he forgot to mention the good parts of his position... the give and take of the city's Kindred....her mouth perked slightly and she waited to hear Audrey's reply to that.

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 9:43:19 PM)
(( was supposed to read " the give and take of status to the city's Kindred....))

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 9:43:30 PM)
(No, I give the city Kindred sometimes)

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 9:43:36 PM)
(( LOL ))

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 9:45:26 PM)
The elder chuckled, reaching for the silver tea pot, she began to pour the hot water into the china cups which sat, tea bag already placed within, waiting for it. The vampire inhaled the scent of the hot tea happily, setting the pot aside once she was done. "Do either of you still indulge in eating? I do have some scones and this delicious strawberry pepper jam that was fetched only this morning from the bakery.." Looking between the two.

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 9:47:06 PM)
*He bit his lip and gently raised a hand to his face to brush some hair aside, using the time to hide his look of disgust at the idea of intaking mortal food... And the inevitable results of thus.* Oh, no thank you. There's no need to go to any trouble.

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 9:48:34 PM)
"I do..." She smiled pleasantly...her eyes looking over the tea cups to the scones..."And I would have jumped, had I not had the misfortune of being away for my music..." She frowned..."A misfortune that I've remedied with Melanie my /assistant/ and it won't be happening ever again.."

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 9:49:46 PM)
Audrey smiled almost like a mischevious child, leaning forward alittle to whisper

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 9:49:50 PM)
[Ack!]

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 9:53:34 PM)
"Me too." Calling for "Virgina", the pretty young woman joining them moments later with a china plate full of fresh, warm scones, a small jam bowl in its center. She placed it gently upon the table, bowed and excused herself but not before her eyes lingered on Mikhail alittle longer then they should have, giving him a hint of a smile as she exited the screened in balcony. "So then, to what do I owe the pleasure of such good company this evening? I suspect this is not a mere social call hmm?" Already having placed a pastry on Amaryllis plate before she reached for one of her own, broke it in half, and began smothering it in jam.

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 9:55:50 PM)
*Letting his displeasure at the feast of mortality fade, he instead delved deeply into the feast of the senses that any respecting Cainite would savour. He let his eyes linger on Virgina as she served, smiled and left, his own grin a wicked thing... Was this an act to let Ama speak uninterupted, or was he just such a vicious monster, ever hunger for the touch of vitae on his tongue, that even an Elders serving staff wasn't off the menu?*

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 9:59:57 PM)
"Well Ms. Rich, as you know, our Clan remains without representation for the Coucil of Primogen. I was under the impression another of our clan was going to seize the opportunity but he..I mean she...didn't..." She slathered jam on her scone and smiled at Mikhail for a moment before she continued lifting the scone up to inhale its sweet scent. Gold eyes gazing upon the Elder with confidance. "I would like to seize the opportunity, but out of the greatest respect to you, I wonder if there was someone you had in mind, or if you wanted it for yourself, for I would never presume to take something that you might want as your own Ms. Rich..." She smiled and took a bite of her scone, her face melting into pleasure....and internally, she knew she would regret the act later, while she heaved it up somewhere...

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 10:02:18 PM)
Rylie doesn't come without gift. *He interjeted, noticing Ama forgot some parts of the offer* She's working to buying the Princes "Wavecrest Threater" in order to secure it as the clans new Elyisum. She's the first Toreador in this city who's stepped up to take responsability for the clan... Which, while tragic, is also convient, as it makes picking the most resousful all the easier.

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:05:35 PM)
Audrey ate her scone like any proper woman would do in her day, with small dainty bites, each savored with contented smile. She listened to the younger speak while enjoying her mortal delights, sipping at the tea periodically. "Me? Oh heavens no. I have no time for it or the patience." She went silent long enough to listen to what Mikhail interjected, her wispy white brows rising alittle. "Hmm... I dont kno... Oh yes, yes I remember now. Looks like a grand place. I think I was driven past it a few weeks ago on my way home from the airport..." Recalling the theater now. "And you can afford such a venture, Ms. DeCuir?" Surprised it seemed that the other vampire had that kind of funds to access.

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 10:08:25 PM)
Gold eyes went appreciatively to Michael as he acted in her better interests. She wondered what that would cost her, and her mouth perked knowingly before she strayed her eyes back to Audrey and she shook her head carefully. "Not on my own, no...I was considering pooling resources with others of our Clan who are willing to entertain such a venture..."

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 10:09:26 PM)
*Smiling wide, he puts a hand on Ama's, using the other one to wave the issue away.* Avi has also expressed his interest in putting money towards the venture... And, honestly? Money is such a mortal concern. If Kindred like us can't part a few mortals with a single theater, Vishnu save us!

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:15:35 PM)
"Well certainly I could help with the purchase... yes yes of course..." Seeming to get lost in a thought, she muttered the last words before trailing off into silence for a time. "Did you know, when my papa was little, he used to sneak into one of the old theaters in New York, but its no longer there, anyway... yes, he used to sneak in through this tiny little port window in the attic and quite some time later, much bigger by then, he got stuck.. STUCK in that window for 2 days before anyone heard his crys. Can you imagine?" Chuckling a moment, she covered her mouth to do so. "By then he'd dropped just enough to squeeze his way out but not before the janitor found him and dragged him by the ear all the way out onto the street where he waited for a policeman to waltz past.." Still laughing, she nibbled another bite. "Oh those days are long gone now though... " Murmuring once more.

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 10:17:30 PM)
*A bright, honest laugh, slapping his knee a little, wiggling a finger* My brothers and I used to sneak into theaters when they first opened. In the early days we were young enough just to stand near some adults and walk in with them. Back then nobody would have asked a child to prove he'd paid for something...

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:22:00 PM)
Her gaze lit up alittle, as if the lights went back on, looking toward Mikhail. She listened and as she did, the vampire could get a sense the woman was looking further beyond him, digging, searching his being yet she sat there smiling like the pleasant little hostess she always was. The whole affair made Mikhails skin suddenly prickle. "Well my dear, it is certainly a brave venture and generous act to place yourself upon his council. I know Francis was interested in the position, as Elyse was at being Harpy...." Grinning a moment. "...but one has to act swiftly if they wish to get anything done."

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 10:26:13 PM)
She listened to Audrey's story, eyes flickering briefly at the story of a child stuck in a window, amused and then she tried to imagine Michael as a boy....she placed the tea cup to her lips taking a sip before she spoke. "I am very willing to place myself upon his council, for our Clan to once more have representation within our Prince's domain..."

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 10:26:32 PM)
(( afk 2 secs sorry baby diaper ))

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:26:41 PM)
[No problem!]

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 10:26:42 PM)
((You're too old to wear thouse.))

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 10:28:48 PM)
(back)

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:32:04 PM)
The elder sat awhile, finishing her scone and cup of tea. She wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin, placing it upon her plate once she was done with it. "I will speak to him if you wish. Prince Vedmundr may or may not listen to me though. Ultimately it is up to him Im afraid."

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:32:21 PM)
[Sorry, my sister is on the phone so my posts wont be as large\

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 10:33:10 PM)
Joelle Bellefontain, the Princes childe, is already putting in a good word for us. With you showing that the Clans most powerful and respected member is behind her, His Lordship would be hard pressed to choose anyone else.

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:37:38 PM)
She nodded in agreement. "You would think so, yes." Smiling briefly. "But this is not your ordinary Prince, Michael... he is a Ventrue and will do as he wishes regardless of what may be said by me." Leaning back in her chair. "But I will speak to him. Be sure to be at the next meeting. He will likely have your answer."

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 10:40:03 PM)
Those amber eyes flickered again briefly over Mikhail, before moving back to Audrey she said with a confidant charming tone to her voice. "I would never be able to represent our Clan as well as you could Madame Rich, but I promise to strive to..." Flattery got you everywhere with Toreador, especially our elders, and Rylie knew exactly what to say and when. She finished her tea and smiled softly. "The tea was as always wonderful...thank you so much."

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 10:41:15 PM)
You two and your mortal beverages, I dunno. *Shaking his head with a smirk* Ms. Rich, assuming the Prince doesn't pick one of the other clan members just to spite us, can we talk about the issue of Domain then?

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:43:47 PM)
"Oh you are most welcome, my dear." Nodding pleasantly to the younger female in the room. "Do bring me the details of the theater with you next time yes? Price etcetera." Flashing a polished smile to Amaryllis before she turned her sights on Mikhail once again. "It would be a good thing to bring up and have ready and waiting to present to the prince 'if' he agrees for you to sit upon his council, Ms. DeCuir. As you know, he will not let anyone hold domain over the french quarter which would clearly be ours if it werent for that fact..."

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 10:48:29 PM)
She nodded softly, knowing well that the Quarter should be theirs. Her mouth curved and she spoke assuringly. "Perhaps once more in future nights...a goal to work towards.." She nodded her clever gold eyes showing that Rylie would work for the Toreador to gain back ground within Vedmundr's city...

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:48:29 PM)

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:49:58 PM)
[ I could have sworn I put maps up of the city in the Vampire Settings section. Apparently I did not. ]

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 10:50:11 PM)
(There is a map under the general setting area)

Mikhail Poleski (Apr 9, 2011 10:50:24 PM)

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:50:45 PM)

Audrey 'Natalia' Rich (Apr 9, 2011 10:50:51 PM)

Amaryllis DeCuir (Apr 9, 2011 10:50:59 PM)
