    "The motivation is, doing things for the prince gets him on your side, and having the Prince on your side is like having a king or the president on your side. As much as I dislike stealing, this would probably be a really good idea. For somebody who actually has something to contribute. I simply don't." Evelyn says.

    Howard nods at Evelyn's words. Somebody gets this, he thought. "With regard to the speakeasy, the Prince's favor would be better than that of a dozen crooked cops."

    "...Oh right...that would make sense...alright then, has anyone got a plan of attack? Because I for one am not sure how we're goign to get into the museum in the first place without being noticed as a bit...odd."

    "It might help to know which museum in the first place. Ol' princey left out a lot of information that could be helpful." Velma scowled.

    The rest of the evening is not too eventful. The Prince's bodyguard shows up eventually and gives Evelyn a slip of paper, which has the name and address of the museum scrawled on it. He also informs the group that a ride is available for them whenever they desire to leave, which will take them all back to the bar.

    Georgia is saved from further awkwardness when the Mekhet Priscus is called away by business.

    Howard is given a piece of paper which has Max's address scrawled on it.


    Eventually, the five vampires regroup, and accept the ride back to the bar. Mr. Wolf is driving, and all five should be able to fit in the car.

    (Feel free to chat in the car, or go straight to being dropped off at the bar.)

    Howard continues mulling over his thoughts in the car. "Do any of you have any ghouls or otherwise-faithful mortal allies? They could look into the place during the day, find out a little more about our target..."

    It is at this point that Clayton demonstrates his stellar knowledge of the inner workings of vampiric culture.

    "...you can do that?"

    "If we don't have any now, we'll just have to deal with it in another way; I don't advocate blood-bonding just so we have someone to check out the museum."

    He puts a hand to his chin, continuing to puzzle this out.

    "Not much time for it tonight," he says. Plus, he thinks to himself, I've other things to see to...

    He remains pensive until the group returns to the bar. Stepping out of the car, he murmurs to Clayton. "You want me to show ya how to really scare people? I'll teach ya how, but it's gonna be worth a future favor, if you catch my drift."

    Turning away from Clayton, Howard nods. "He said it would be put on display in a few days' time."

    "Seems a bit...vague. He didn't give us much to go on, but maybe that's because he only has what he knows?" Clayton shrugs. Art Theft is not exactly his prime forte.

    "I'll do what I can, but what I can isn't much. I'd rather just go to sleep personally." Evelyn says. She looked kinda tired. "At least the prince here is relatively nice. I've heard horror stories about some princes." Evelyn says with a shudder.

    "Right, we'll check out this museum early tomorrow night. In the meantime, I'm gonna go lock up. Er...Howard, Georgia, you're free to use our guest rooms tonight I guess...." Clayton shrugs, locking up the door down to the speakeasy, the back door already locked.

    It should be noted that the type of door that they use requires a key on both sides.

    It wasn't really much to look out down here, nothing fancy, but it was nice and dark during the day and secure.

    "Just don't make yourselves too comfortable,"
    Because Velma's suspiciousness was so subtle.

    "Too comfortable?" wide eyed curiosity, seemingly honest.

    Clayton grinned a little, taking a closer look at Georgia for the first time.

    "Oh you know...taking a bit of comfort in our company is what she means...not that it would be all that terrible to have a little personal comfort from a lovely English Rose like yourself~"

    Why yes, Clayton is entirely shameless. How did you notice?

    She blinks several times, and breaks into a wide smile. "Oh, my. Are such things spoken of in these parts? I always assumed such clandestine appointments were kept... secret, even when the offer came from one as esteemed and handsome as yourself."

    Nah. He wasn't doing it in spite of her.

    "Ah...heh, well, we are among friends, yes? Secrets are hardly a large matter between good friends."

    He wasn't even thinking about her at all. She underestimates his piggishness.

    Howard has the decency to wait 'til their backs are turned to roll his eyes. Then, since the attention is off of him, he wills himself invisible once more; the offer to let him stay through the day is quite generous, but he feels he has time still yet to find this "Max" and get properly acquainted.
