Laughing she rest a hand onto Dae's shoulder momentarily. "I wish that were the case, I really do. Trust me while I love the idea of opening a Colletiva, opening in Chicago is not my place of choice." sighing she removed her hand from his shoulder before settling onto the arm of the couch where her coat was resting. "Lucian, Damian, it's a pleasure to meet the both of you." she nodded respectfully towards them. It was back to her business face, hiding the arrogance she typically showed.<br/><br/>"The good news is, we don't have to stay here in this crappy little apartment any further." she smiled hoping that this news would be enough to make them all happy. "The better news is we have two choices of where you can stay until the Colletiva is up and running completely. The hotel that Galen told me about, I stayed there last night and eventually bought it this morning before I left. It took a little bit of doing but people this day and age are fairly responsive to large sums of money. The service and food suck, but I find that is something we can work on improving now that it is under new leadership."<br/><br/>Shifting her weight on the arm of the couch she continued. "Also the building Galen so graciously looked at for me this previous night is now ours as well. The real estate agent was most generous when it came to showing me around just after sun up. Also he gave us a bit of a deal on the property. While there is some furniture there isn't enough to house a large number of us. Some may have to stay at the hotel until I can get us entirely set up which I hope to do within the next seventy-two hours."
