" Thank you, Conrad. I would enjoy joining our host in the VIP section, but I need to speak with... a relative... for a few moments first," Lorelei says, nodding toward Dalt before giving Dio a slight smile. " If you would inform him that Lady Dionisia and I are here and will be joining him shortly, I would much appreciate it." . I slip Lor the two Trump cards from Dalt i've had my hands on so she can give them back to him. I follow Conrad to the VIP section

"Certainly. If you will follow me." Conrad leads them into the club and through the tables and chairs, until he reaches the steps up tot he VIP section. The divider rope slithers back on its own when he arrives, granting access. He nods and half bows, letting Brain and his wife proceed up the steps. When they are up the rope moves back across the gap, closing off the section. He then motions with his arm, to allow Lorelei and Dio to head out into the club on their own. He then return to his station at the front desk.
As Brian and his wife reach the top of the stairs Hammett comes forward and greets them, "King Brian, I am glad to see you have recovered from you injuries. And this must be your wife, Queen Annue, whom I've heard so much about. Welcome. I am glad you were able to come this evening."

And this must be your wife, Queen Annue, whom I've heard so much about. Welcome. I am glad you were able to come this evening." I nod to Hammett. When he mentions my inury there is a slight annoyance....the sort that two kinsmen could have to each other and not be bothersome to their relationship. "Your boy at the front door had he of a mind to kill him....you might want to work on training him to deal better with the sort of VIPs you can get. " I turn to my wife "My dear Battle Crow...this is Hammett a Scion of some one in Amber. And like me not aware of it. Unless he is lying or some one tampered with out memories."
I look at Hammett seriously "Have you had reasons to question your memories of late? Beyond the whole explosion thing."

Hammett gives him a quizzical look, "That is an unusual question, and definitely not one to start off an evening or an after party. You haven't even had a seat yet. Nor drinks." He makes a slight motion with one of his hands and one of the staff begins to head over to get their orders. "Please, sit here." He motions to a table.
The waiter takes their order then hurries up to the bar to have it filled. By the time they've even fully settled into their seats and gotten comfortable, the waiter has returned and sets their drinks down before them.
Hammett takes his drink for his nearby table and raises it up, "Cheers."

When Lorelei and Dio get the gesture from Conrad that they can move on to the interior Dio smiles brightly up to Lorelei.
"Thank you for taking me along, and i won't be long. I just want to say hello and thank him for the great fighting together. "
With a bit more of a sly grin she says
"And stare at him a bit more from closer up.... oh and ask him if he can help Kat. Kat does need a man...."

Lorelei accepts the cards from Brian with a silent nod.
With the gesture from Conrad, she and Dio begin making their way toward Dalt. She smiles at Dio's excited chatter. "Assuming he stays in one place long enough, what I need to say to him won't take long... but I'm willing to wait an extra moment or two afterwards so that you can stare at him. I am beginning to wonder if you are wanting him for yourself as well as to help Kat." There is no reproach in Lorelei's voice, and only a little amusement. .

Dio blinks at Lorelei shocked at the mere suggestion, she then smiles wide. "That would not be a wise thing to want someone for myself, as i have no idea what comes next, and when i will be claimed back by Chaos or who-ever in Chaos. SO just staring listening and enjoying the moment seems the wisest thing to do for me. Least i want is to drag someone else with me to the mess that is my past probably going to hunt for me again. " After a few steps she then looks with a certain twinkle in her eye up at Lorelei again. "Although having more people around me that would care at least what happens to me, like you... would not be bad either. " She nods slowly as if processing a train of thought.

"Sometimes it is not that simple. When everything is right it can be wonderful. Occasionally you might choose someone that is less than ideal so that you can share a pleasurable experience - my mother is a prime example of this behavior with the power, position, and appetites that very few can resist. And sadly, sometime you find the perfect one and events force you apart, but even then the memories, and usually the friendship, remains..."

Annie sniffs as she is seated in the VIP section.
"This is for important people? It is much the same as everywhere else in this place other than the strip of rope. Do you not entertain Queens and gods often, mister Hammett?"

Dio stops in her walk towards Dalt and looks at Lorelei confused. Clearly Lorelei her words do not comprehend. After a few seconds Dio smiles again and continues her path to Dalt, with Lorelei. "I am just happy to watch and listen, i do not get how someone can be the perfect one."

#s://i~ibb~co/gymQ9Gp/Dalt~png Dalt's companions drift away from the table as the women approach. They slide amid the crowd and make for the exits. Alone, staring at his beer, Dalt says "Didn't Hammett tell you that me n' my business partners were to be left alone?"

"So you'd rather leave what has been started as unfinished, and not get your property back either, uncle?" asks Lorelei... .

Dio looks slightly shocked at the reaction from Dalt and she wants to start to apologize profusely but then hears Lorelei speak, Dio takes a slight step back to give Lorelei the space to speak on which subject she wished to speak about with Dalt. She doesn't mind to just keep watching Dalt.
She does give a little wave to Dalt but remains silent.
