[ the pendergast manor is a sprawling sight, impressive even to those who live in the world's most ridiculously sized castle. the whole place has a sort of country club air, and white gloved butlers escort the little troupe of knights through the halls, past expensive paintings and all the other old money trappings. ]

[ they seem to be telling the truth, actually. erika pipes up: "Are you kidding? This is the fifth stalker she's had this year, according to her. She's like setting rumors going and watching the fallout." ]

[bluffcheck]

All that for a bit of attention? Seems a bit much, don't you think?

[moonheart]

[ "Her parents have ignored her for years. She's totally desperate for whatever she can get." The other girl shrugs.

"Not complaining though. We get good parties out of it." ]

[bluffcheck]

And I get to meet lovely ladies, such as yourself- so I doubt you'll hear me complaining. But tell me- these other stalkers of hers? What happens when she's tired of them? Never given another thought?

[moonheart]

[ "She throws guys away like toilet paper. We're always telling her it's gonna bite her in the ass some day, but like she cares." ]

[bluffcheck]

So do you think there's some poor soul being wrongfully accused...or has she made him up entirely?

[moonheart]

[ "Oh I'm sure he's real enough, alright. But she probably drove him to it. Don't believe her whole victim spiel." ]

[bluffcheck]

There's rumor that he might be here tonight. Anyone up for a friendly wager?

[Games are fun, especially when they involves Thoster getting other people to do his work.]

[moonheart]

[ "I might be game. Depends on the stakes." ]

[bluffcheck]

A gentleman would never impose a stake on ladies are fine as yourselves. Whatever it is that you desire, I will honor it if you can find him. And if I do? Well...perhaps I could convince you to grace me with a bit more of your company tonight.

[moonheart]

[ roll a diplomacy check, schmoozy ]

[bluffcheck]

[Diplomacy 31 because the dice love Thoster. God damn.]

[moonheart]

Oh, why not? Pays to lighten up the mood a bit. [ claudia extends a hand ] You've a deal.

[bluffcheck]

[This time he shakes her hand proper, since it's just the way you seal deals, after all.]

Come find me before you leave and we'll see who's won.

[He gives them both another quick smile before he's off to slip back into the crowd.]
