Invitation to a Night Party

"That's fair " He replies with a bit of a sheepish smirk .

(KI)

The Lord Regent wrote:"Love you too" Mari said said sarcastically "How about you vic, tea?" she asked in his head

Orlock was working on  what looked like a really big bronze cannon  turret thing, on a disk being held up by several metal spider legs, something like some sort of walking scifi cannon. He gave her a smile when he turned around. It was an automaton like the ancient wizards used to wage war on the vampire kingdoms. "I've rediscovered the lost magic of Automatons" He said excitedly

Nenet was studying these strange contraptions, a crease appearing between her brows. This would mean her plan for a takeover would be all the more simple. She would just need to get Orlock in on this as well; it shouldn't be too hard. "This is... amazing."

"Oh i thought you'd like it" Orlock said to Ninet "i don't have the resources to mass produce them yet though"  he said casually and  added "Anyway that's not why i invited you down here, I have your information..." He said pulling out what looked like a smartphone "It has an enchantment of my own design. If you touch a vampire with it on your person, it will record their vampire abilities and weaknesses under contacts, I shook hands with every lord at the party, merry christmas." He said offering the phone to her

Nenet really did look like a child at Christmas when he handed this to her. Her eyes lit up like lightbulbs as she flicked through the contacts. She then pulled Orlock into a, probably rather surprising, hug. "How can I ever repay you?"

Orlock was not as surprised by the hug as most would have been but still a bit surprised at her showing legitimate affection, he had missed her quite a bit and part of him wanted to try and get back together with her but he pushed that aside for now. "You can use it to take them down." he responded with a smile at ninet

Victor sips on his tea a bit more.

"This will be perfect," She said with a smile, already trying to form a plan in her mind.

"Perhaps we could... discuss it over dinner on the surface some time" Orlock suggested mostly trying to get a date cassually

Victor just raises a brow at that , is Orlock.... flirting?

Her heart fluttered slightly. Or it could have been her imagination. But no matter. "I'll look forward to it," She said with a smile. Yes, it would be beneficial to get closer to Orlock again so she can have more of his weapons at her disposal. That's the reason she kept telling herself anyway.

Vic sighs internally , well there goes that.

"As do I" Orlock  assured her with a light smile, his hear didn't skip a beat, but he was looking forward to it despite the associated risks with go on a date with ninet "Are you free tomorrow evening?" Orlock wondered

Yup ,he'll never get a chance now , he isn't really upset Orlock tends to have that sort of effect .

"Unfortunately," She said with a slight smirk.

"Supose i'll correct that then" Orlock said with a slight smirk

"I suppose you will," She replied smoothly, shooting him a wink.

Victor watches as his hopes and dreams crash into the ground and explode.
