Even in jeans, Gwen carried herself with confidence and grace. Which is why she walked straight up to the Praetor's door and knocked on it, the moment that she and Jonathon arrived.

The door was opened by Richard the Butler.

"Good evening."

She gave Richard the Butler a smile.

"Good evening. Gwendolyn Brailsford. I believe that I am expected?"

Methuselah Posts : 1376 Join date : 2011-10-11

He nodded.

"She is waiting in the library. If you'll come this way?"

Elder Posts : 569 Join date : 2012-11-18

She nodded and turned to follow.

"Of course."

He lead her down the hall and into a beautifully filled library. Two stories high, filled with books. There was an elegant lady sitting behind a desk, writing.

"Miss Gwendolyn Brailsford to meet you, ma'am."

She waved a hand, beckoning the woman in, without raising her head.

"Just one moment, if you please."

She smiled, but folded her hands behind her back.

"Of course," she said again, though this time to Christine.

She wrote for a few more moments, then set her pen down and looked up.

"Good evening."

Elder Posts : 569 Join date : 2012-11-18

She nodded. She was polite, but the gesture was telling. Her submission only went so far.

"Good evening to you, Praetor."

Methuselah Posts : 1376 Join date : 2011-10-11

She gestured to a chair in front of her desk. It was a comfortable one.

"Please, sit."

Elder Posts : 569 Join date : 2012-11-18

With a smile, she sat. Crossing her legs, she leaned back comfortably in the chair, though her eyes? They never left Christine.

"Thank you."

Methuselah Posts : 1376 Join date : 2011-10-11

She nodded and leaned back in her own chair.

"So. What brings you to Port St. Lucie?"

Elder Posts : 569 Join date : 2012-11-18

She smiled.

"Fresh start, really. New-ish domain, not as many troubles with the drug trafficking and other such business that Chicago offers."

Methuselah Posts : 1376 Join date : 2011-10-11

She nodded.

"I can understand that. It is truly a good Domain for fresh starts."

Elder Posts : 569 Join date : 2012-11-18

She smiled.

"I wasn't sure if it would be or not. But I figured that I should at least give it a try."

Methuselah Posts : 1376 Join date : 2011-10-11

She nodded.

"I'm guessing that you don't go in for this clan thing very often?"

Elder Posts : 569 Join date : 2012-11-18

She smiled.

"Not often, no."

Methuselah Posts : 1376 Join date : 2011-10-11

She nodded.

"Well, I'm likely to leave you alone most of the time. But you ever need anything, you come to me. My home is yours."

Elder Posts : 569 Join date : 2012-11-18

She nodded.

"Who is the Prince here?"

Methuselah Posts : 1376 Join date : 2011-10-11

"Jamie Alexander, clan Brujah."

Elder Posts : 569 Join date : 2012-11-18

She smiled at that.

"And his feelings on our Clan?"

Methuselah Posts : 1376 Join date : 2011-10-11

"We're a bunch of sticks up the ass who are a waste of his time with our ways."

She said it matter of factly. Because...that's how she thought he felt.

Elder Posts : 569 Join date : 2012-11-18

She nodded.

"Fair enough. Where can I find him?"

Methuselah Posts : 1376 Join date : 2011-10-11

She smiled.

"Regency, sixth floor."

Elder Posts : 569 Join date : 2012-11-18

She nodded.

"Thank you. I should probably get myself introduced. Does he have a Seneschal?"
