We have no more tables available at The Gilded Griffin until late January, and that's only if I like you.

What do you want for Christmas?

[Daphne]
A belated congratulations on your new position, Lady Daphne. I do hope Lady Yaxley appreciates your talents as much as the rest of us.

[Fletcher]
You'll never guess who I bumped into at the local Macmillans' store this morning.

[Pettigrew]
I'm starting to believe our King may be cursed. Curious, don't you think?

[Augusta's employees]
A noble lord stepped on my foot at the gala in Knightsbridge last night and his apology was as poorly executed as his outfit. I want his name and sexual fetishes (real or not) scrawled on every bathroom wall between St Paul's and Hampstead Heath. Little shit.

	I will keep that in mind. I'd hate to ~~waste~~use such powerful weaponry. I'll pack a bag. Should I set my own arrangements? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Good. Of course not, you are my guest. I shall be staying at the Chinzanso hotel, and I have already booked you a private room on the floor below. It has a balcony and free room service. Come to The Gilded Griffin on Thursday evening, and we can arrange travel. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'll be there. Forgive me if this is a foolish question but should I go as one of your associates, Lady Daphne Greengrass, or a bit of both? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Neither, for now. When we leave the hotel, you must act like we have never met. You shall be arriving at the card table with a lady named Sophia, whom you shall meet on Thursday. She will be the one playing cards - so you needn't worry about that. Make up an alias, wear a red dress and be your usual self. Smile, listen, observe and above all - pretend to be interested in whatever is said at the table, no matter how dull. Especially if Boss Tanaka is saying it. Do you think you could do that?

In the meantime, there will be cocktails, fine food and a lot of art. Perhaps you'll even find some inspiration for your fashion line whilst you're there.

	Not to worry. If there is one thing that being to Court has taught me, is knowing how to find anything people are discussing seem unequivocally engaging. Ecpesscually from self-important men. I'll make the red dress just as inviting as my smile. I think I'll go with Demelza Thatcher. This all sounds like a very fine time. I'm already looking forward. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I knew you were just the right woman for the job, Demelza. We shall see you on Thursday. (Reply to this) (Parent)
