The Culture Tour

[Valentina Audley]

Valentina has by this point, gotten enough of a hold of herself to look up again and is sitting quietly, enjoying the merriment of her elders.

“Elder Keane, I have a dear pretty Toreador friend here, who I think would be able to assist with your lonely spell. If you’re a bit unfamiliar with these sorts of things, you just lift your arm see, and you begin the cuddle that way. If she backs into my lap in horror, you have done something wrong. But it’s all good practice.”

[Posh-Tim]

Keane's aura floods with tension, confusion and panic. To his credit, he doesn't show any of this outwardly. He nods, puts on the mildest face of concentration whilst looking disinterested, and puts his arm around Valentina.
"Ancilla Audley, you looked... Cold?"
The end sort of stutters out. This appears to be the limits of his sensibilities.

[Jerome Price]

Jerome moves to find a seat behind Elder Keane, gently resting a hand on lightly on each shoulder his gaze directed at Aurelia he grins. “I suppose it depends on the elder’s proclivities, while Valentina might provide him with a most delightful cut to his garments perhaps he needs someone a little more experienced to ease him into such things. What say you Elder?” At the last his fingers tighten and release, is hands drifting back and onto the top of the seat behind Keane.

[Valentina Audley]

When Keane puts his arm around her Valentina obligingly shifts so as to be closer to to him.

"Why thank-you for your kindly attentions Elder" She murmurs, a small smile playing on her lips. Unlike him, her aura is radiating amusement and enjoyment, she doesn't seem bothered at all.

When Jerome moves behind Keane she glances up at him smiles languidly and winks. Without moving from Keane's side.

"Oh for-"
The Sheriff stretches back into a seating position, taking off his hat.
"First of all... bravo," he says, smile full of teeth. "Glad we're having fun. Grand, superb. Secondly-"
He turns to look at Aurelia.
"You knew my name was Niketas? Impressive, you've done your homework. We'll talk about that. Third..."
He turns to Hermina and Jerome.
"I'm hardly an innocent. In my mortal days I was the biggest tart in Constantinople. I was indulging in four-ways with nuns when I was a teenager, and when the Metropolitan found out I bedded him too. When I was young I bedded my teachers and when I was old I bedded my students. Nobles hired assassins after what I did with their husbands and wives. None of this is new information, but I do try not to let it define me. And as for my proclivities since then... that's my business."
He rummages into his satchel, grabbing his own hipflask.
"Comedy of errors eh? Seems tame compared to this fine company."
He chuckles, taking a swig and passing the bottle to Aurelia.
"You're a damned clever beast aren't you? Sorry, damned clever elder, Aurelia, to bait that out of me. Well played."

[Posh-Tim]

Keane's aura simmers down as Valentina leans into him. Still a little awkward but enjoying the companionable response. He tenses up a little at Jerome and Herminas suggestions.
"Perhaps, for now, we could settle on enjoying one anothers company. I am sure there will be the opportunity for further... Experienced attention, later."
He pulls Valentina a little closer, hoping Dukes' response will take the attention off him for a moment. It wasnt a lack of interest, Keane just hadn't been in society for quite some time.
