Looking over as Arcea welcomes her in, Sevana gives her a little smile when she describes the likely result of the projector’s effect on Trinara.  “I couldn’t be sure without really inspecting it, but the rumors were that it would magnify whatever mental state and emotions that were being displayed.  In this case...I think it would just make her hungrier.”<br/><br/>Although it’s hard to see for those not familiar with her mannerisms, Sevana is overjoyed to see another of her relatives this far from home; one of the major downsides to her posting to Catspaw was the fact that she was going to be effectively alone out here.  Answering Yvonne’s interrogative with a chirping squeak of her own, Sevana grins when Yvonne offers her own perspective of the word ‘theoretical’ in this context.  “Oh, of course.  Much of my own work as well was based on things others thought too difficult, esoteric, or impractical to try.  On the other hand, I’ve always found it prudent to learn<span style="font-style: italic">why</span>a technique, device, or methodology was still unexplored - there’s a significant difference between someone never trying a specific application of technical theory and that same implementation having killed the last one to have attempted it, after all!”<br/><br/>Returning Yvonne’s interest in her, Sevana’s appraisal is a bit more frank, and she isn’t afraid to let her gaze wander a bit during the process.  While it hadn’t ever been a major concern of hers, Sevana isn’t very picky when it comes to potential companions, but with the way that Yvonne was looking at her, she wasn’t going to rule out anything.  At the same time, she’s more watching for how Yvonne reacts to her; while analyzing someone is all well and good, there’s some information that can only be revealed when someone knows you’re watching.  “Well, weapons are only as dangerous as the one who wields them.  In my case I much prefer to deal with issues in a more...proactive manner than most, and that requires the ability to recognize those issues from a distance.  The fact that some of those issues may come from darker areas of the world simply means that one needs to be ready to deal with those elements of society rather than ignore them.  And, of course, the ‘legitimate and conventional’ world can get so dreadfully dull at times…”<br/><br/>The revelation that Catspaw apparently had more than its own fair share of clandestine interests and dealings had Sevana’s eyebrows raising, but it was in pleasure, not concern.  “Oh my, I never would have thought that a place like this could be so interesting.  I wouldn’t call myself a lawgiver, per se, and I think a few of the actual lawgivers I’ve encountered would object rather strenuously, but as times change, one must change along with them.”<br/><br/>When Yvonne mentions her interest in Arcea, Sevana gives a mock gasp and shakes her head.  “Of course, where are my manners?”  I am Sevana De’Bucovina, of the Deneir branch, and it is my pleasure to introduce two of my companions and eventual partners once we arrive at Catspaw - Arcealandria of the Cal’drua, and Celrie Dawnstrider.  For our part, though, pretty much all of us don’t bother with titles and related niceties, and in Arcea’s case, insisting on using them are a prime way to get her to give you a personal re-enactment of the show you just put on.”
