After a two-month break, we're back in New York. The Prince's ghoul delivers a note to Lottie which confirms that the broken ghouls are indeed Abrogard relatives, and they are indeed Jeanine's. The letter is the Prince's handwriting, but it's perfumed. Is he siding with the Toreador for some reason?
Lottie and Frankie drop into Theo's to let him know maybe getting too hard on the Toreador is ill advised at this stage.
Lottie and Julius go to Angela and instruct her to get Andreas into whichever nursing home will take him at short notice. She's also instructed to (and then made to forget having done it) calling a particular phone number to say on behalf of Charlotte Hansard, "J Calloway" isn't to disembark any ship. Could Jeanine be headed for Staten Island, where the Anarchs are?
Frankie, meanwhile, goes to get both the knife and the plans from Benny. The note left by the contact in the planning office is weird. It's in English but is hard to read, and looks like a lot of nonsense? Frankie brings it to Lottie and Julius, who get weird vibes off it. They try to look at it in a mirror, in case of some kind of magic filter, but it still doesn't work. It's put in a locked drawer for later.
The three of them then go over to the Staten Island ferry. Frankie drops the two of them off and drives off. Lottie and Julius are met by Tommy the Fool, a fairly useless mook, in case they need someone to do the heavy lifting. Or maybe in case they want a snack on the way, you never know.
“I mean, how big’s this apocalypse? Is it going to hurt Julius? No? Then it can fuck off!”
Lottie: “He’s crazy.”
Player: “And that’s coming from a Malkavian!”
(Lottie still not getting dressed in more than Julius’s dress shirt)
“We don’t need this level of fanservice!”
GM: “Val briefly sticks his head through the door saying ‘BOOYAH! Charlotte was actually trustworthy!’”
GM: “So, job list:
1.) Get Lucrezia (GOLCONDA) info from Benny
2.) Get Jeanine knife for Frankie
3.) Get Andreas out of house
4.) Get message to Theo
5.) Find Jeanine and FUCK HER SHIT UP!
6.) Break Sixth Tradition, which is kind of a biggie”
GM: “Julius is coming down the stairs looking …”
Player: “Hot?”
Player: “Nicolaj Coster-Waldau has higher billing in this game than Henry Cavill.”
GM: “But what about Henry Cavill’s moustache?”
Player: “Probably that has higher billing at this stage too.”
GM: “Val might be at Charlotte’s.”
Player: “I did try to tell him not to hit that, but sure.”
Lottie: “How do I kill a vampire? Hypothetically speakin’.”
GM: “Frankie, you’re—”
Frankie: “Weirded out? So what else is new?”
GM: “These are not Julius’s thoughts, by the way.”
Player: “They better fucking not be or AltLottie will stake him in his sleep!”
GM: “Just making a note of what weapons you have. Lottie has—”
Player: “A shit ton of fucking weapons!”
GM: “What does Frankie have?”
Player: “Apart from a growing sense of dread.”
GM: “Julius will stare at you until your skull explodes.”
Player: “He’s so sexy when he does that.”
Player: “Are they devoted or stupid?”
GM: “They’re devotupid.”
Player: “Yeah, they’re not mutually exclusive.”
“If a Brujah dies in a warehouse and no one’s around, did she really die?”
