| Welcome To The Night You find yourself in London on a dreary, foggy night like any other. But what lurks in the shadows is the stuff of fantasies and nightmares, far from mortal reality. This game uses the cursed and immortal vampiric condition as a backdrop to explore themes of morality, depravity, the human condition, salvation, and personal horror. We are a writing and roleplaying community dedicated to telling complex and engaging stories. Your fate is your own. Mingle among the ivory-tower elite in the Camarilla, join the fight of the discontented and chaotic Anarch rabble, or set out independently and attempt to survive in London's nighttime underworld.

Cornwall confirmed that Margo was in her suite, apparently waiting for her meeting with Jeremy. Lisbeth glanced over at Jeremy. Puzzled. It should take less then five minutes, if that; to retrieve Ms. Carter and Oliver. And Jeremy had only just mentioned to have Lisbeth waiting outside his office in case Margo needed to be... arrested. More importantly, Lisbeth didn't want the primogen out of her sight until he was safely out of Anarch territory. Lisbeth said "If you are eager to get started to the Clermont Primogen Starling; we can go there directly and I can have van 2 transport Ms. Carter and Theo. Until we are out of North London I would care to stay by your side, sir." |

Jeremy was confused. It sounded a bit contradictory what she had said. "I might have misunderstood something...I thought it was you who first said that the two vans go seperately, and I don´t mind...and you might as well come with me to the Clermont Club with some of the men." Or did she want to get out of the van as soon as they were out of Anarch area? "I don´t think Mrs. Carter needs you urgently right now?" |

Lisbeth closed her eyes a moment for patience, then nodded. She understood the confusion now. The tall Ventrue was unaccustomed to working with untrained field operatives. She replied hastily to Mr. Starling. "Sir, Signora Carter and Theo should be here in a moment; joining us here in van 1 (which also has Jeremy's security men from the Clermont). Van 2, which is maneuvering behind us is going to retrieve the rest of my team. Both vans are to rendezvous at checkpoint beta, which is just outside of Anarch territory. This is to confirm visually that all team members have exited the field safely. Van 1, ours; will then return us to the Clermont Club. Van 2 will return the rest of my security team to base." Unless the primogen objected, Lisbeth would then follow the plan and wait for Lessa and Theo. She didn't want to leave Anarch territory until all the kindred involved in the operation were gathered.

Miss Sherwood bade her brief guests a polite goodbye, enabling them to return quickly to their van. |

He had indeed misunderstood what Ms. Blücher had said. But he hadn´t done operations of that sort before. "Obviously I got that wrong, but now I understand. O.K., so we´ll wait." |

On the way back down the stairs, Lessa unclasped her necklace and put her ring back on her finger. She clenched her hand around it for a minute, glad to have it back where it belonged. Once downstairs, she took two fifty pound notes out of her purse and put them in the tip jar. "For the information. And for not turning me away as soon as you heard I was Camarilla. Thank you for your time. Look, I know this may not be much consolation, right now, but for what it's worth..." She held her left hand up, showing her ring. "The man that gave me this ring died centuries before I met him. Even my kind are still capable of love, Mister O'Rourke. I hope that you and your CJ are able to make things work. Somebody in this fucked up world should get to have a happy ending. Have a good evening." She turned and walked out of the pub. But she didn't get into the van right away. "Theo, I just wanted to apologize for my actions at the MadHatter. You really did look like you were going to pass out. I should have just asked you there if you were okay... But I didn't really trust you to be honest with me. It was a combination of the doctor in me being worried about a patient, and the mother in me treating you like a misbehaving child. But I was out of line, and I'm sorry. I hope you didn't get into trouble for that mess." The speech was as much for Lisbeth's benefit as Oliver's. She had noticed after leaving the party that her text hadn't gone through, but had been too frazzled from getting ready for tonight to talk to her about it. As she climbed into the van, she already had her phone out and was sending a text to Margo. Text message for Margo This was definitely one of Arthur's clusterfucks. She seemed to be having a lot of them, lately. Edited by Lessa, Friday, 12. September 2014, 19:28.

Miss Sherwood's indulgence was appreciated, and the ghoul was feeling relieved to be leaving now. He thus followed Lady Alessandra down the stairs, and watched as she put the money in the jar. Her words for Mister O'Rourke were kind, and he nodded in agreement to what she said. So far as he was concerned, there was no time for love when one was waging a war - but if it helped some people get through the day, and fight said war, good for them. He opened and held the door for her as they left, and followed in silence to the van. When she turned to him, he gave her his attention, thought Domina was waiting. And so as he listened, he had one hand ready to open the side door. "Theo, I just wanted to apologize for my actions at the MadHatter. You really did look like you were going to pass out. I should have just asked you there if you were okay... But I didn't really trust you to be honest with me. It was a combination of the doctor in me being worried about a patient, and the mother in me treating you like a misbehaving child. But I was out of line, and I'm sorry. I hope you didn't get into trouble for that mess." His expression softened and he offered a warm smile. "I know, Lessa. But it is I who should apologize. I was not myself, that night, to be honest. All part of my training, but I am learning. Thank you for your concern, it was appreciated nonetheless," he said, with a bow of his head. "And no, Domina was most understanding, as always," he added, his deep voice gentle, and his expression suggesting that he was grateful for both. And, with this, he opened the door, and offered a hand to help her up; after which he climbed in after her. When he was in the van, he bowed as best he could to his Stăpână, and to Primogen Starling, and took up his former position, awaiting further instructions. Edited by Oliver, Saturday, 13.

Lynx looked up from where he was talking to Reggie as the vampires walked back down and through. He listened to Lessa and politely nodded his head. It wasn't until they left the room that he picked up his glass of scotch and squeezed it, his knuckles whitening as he took several deep breaths. Like they knew ANYTHING of what his world was going through. He worked to appreciate that she was trying to be kind, so he took several deep slow breaths. Then he poured himself another glass of scotch, sipped it and walked over to the piano. He opened the lid and closed his green eyes, his body relaxing slightly as he began to play Night on Bald Mountain and let one of his favorite classical pieces wash over him and drive the spike of rage and agony in his chest out into the air through his fingers. |

Lisbeth closed the book on Operation: Rodeo. The Gangrel she had expected to encounter, wasn't. But she still considered the effort rewarded. They had a solid, if unexpected lead. The van containing the three Venture, Theo and four security men (two of Jeremy's, two of Lisbeth's) headed to the Clermont Club. There was a Rose that needed picking. |
