Thread: Decisions Decisions (ATTN: Amanda & Bishop)

Amanda entered the theater in one of her business casual outfits and seemed well rested and ready for business. When entering the room she automatically bows to Maddalena, "My Prince; good evening." Amanda continues to approach closer as she looks at the Bishop and shaking her head. She then turns her full attention to Maddalena.

Bishop stands motionlessly, in complete silence. As Amanda enters, he watches her with a malicious, blood thirsty look in his eyes. However her remains silent, standing perfectly still holding his head high.

Maddalena looks at them both unhappily.

"Amanda, Bishop, both of you will discuss this matter with the utmost professionalism, I will not bear witness to childish banter. As I told Bishop, if the two of you can come to an agreement on reparation for his hiding in your clan, Amanda, then this issue will be resolved. If not, well then, I will deal with Bishop privately. There is very little time for me to referee this issue, so I suggest you do not dawdle or I shall be forced to reprimand you both."

Maddalena sits back, motioning for the discussion to begin.

Amanda looks back at Bishop, after a nod to the Prince. She studies
him for a moment, nearly emotionless. She then turns to face him
directly. And gives a weak smirk at the being, that evaporates before
she speaks.

"Since there is little time to discuss this, let us get to the point.
Toreador gave their support for you to be Acknowledged. That is worth
a Major boon for the Toreador clan. You voted against me as Primogen,
and weren't of clan. For that I demand a one drink blood bond, to
yours truly. You kept from us that Lisette and Tripp were not
Toreador, as well. For that, I demand another drink, the next night."

Looking down upon Amanada, Bishop replies in a condescending tone. "I agree to the boon owed to the CLAN. As for the bonds to you, I would rather be cast into the light of the sun. When that attempt was made to remove you from the Primogen seat I did NOT vote against you. I questioned that facts brought forward that you were blood bound to the Colonel. I even brought that damaging accusation to your attention. As for my knowledge of Lisette and Tripp, I had know for just two weeks and had not seen you in that time. These kind of issue should be handled with some degree of delicacy. Throughout this entire ordeal I had offered you my loyalty, but you have slapped my hand time after time. I believe at this point we should all part ways with my debt to the clan."

Amanda looks at the chained Bishop as he speaks and then turns to Maddalena.

"There we have it, words from his own mouth, he wishes to be ashed."

Bishop turns his attention to Maddalena. His head still held high.

"It appears the discussion between Ms. Winters and myself has concluded."

Maddalena frowns deeply at Amanda.

"Leave, Ms. Winters. What I have to say is for Bishop alone."
