He often even<em>looked</em>faded to other fae when they looked at him. The fact that he had not been approached before tonight about the Queen's concerns, or that Brandi had apparently not heard his comment, was therefore not a surprise or a bother to the little man. He was happy enough to have been remembered for dinner and be served such a sumptuous meal by the rather sumptuous Robyn.<br/><br/>As he looked at his glass, there were traces of the powder that had not dissolved. Taking a finger, he reached into the cool wine and swirled it a little to help the mixing. A quick poke of the finger in his mouth to clean it off, and he seemed satisfied as he continued to drink and take another bite of the steak.<br/><br/>"Well, Joe if you are interested you should visit "The Rowan Cane and Leaden Chain". It is a semi private club where you might find some nubile young playmates to suit your wildest fancy. It has been maintained by the Autumn and Spring via much networking and exchange of services that I arraigned. It's main purpose is as a place where our kind may find a safe place to gather.<br/><br/>Despite the exodus of the others from the freehold, as Autumn's representative, my symbol is still on the doors and I still maintain hospitality over the location.  Therefore as long as one is not instigating violence or stupidity that could harm us all, then they are free to come for fun, or to seek food, drink, shelter, and other needs and assistance. If they do choose to violate my declaration of hospitality, then they had best of slept well. " He chuckles and looks to Robyn and gives a little dark laugh "Because I suspect it will be the last time they do no?" He chortles again slightly to himself as he drinks more of the wine.  "Oh what a wonderful grape this is!" his voice rises, in almost an ever so slight agitated excitement.<br/><br/>"The tavern, hidden behind the club facade, " he begins again, looking to Joe "also borders into the local Hedge. No one is allowed into that area save us, and those whom you vouch for, such as perhaps one of the encorcelled that you know very well. Security must be maintained lest prying eyes be our downfall. If any should need to contact me, that is one place to do so. Miss Hughes' ladies also know how to find me should you wish to give them a message."
