[i][color=ec008c]"Hello there,"[/color] she chimed in, glancing at the newcomers with genuine mirth. [color=ec008c]"I don't know we have such an important meeting here. What gives with my invitation?"[/color][/i]

Victoria's head perked up, swiveling away from the Guard Captain to one of the battered members of the team. The blonde elf had spoken up, and despite being in such a state, she didn't seem ready to let that stop her from contributing. [color=ed1c24]"Greetings."[/color] Leaning back in her chair, the pale girl gestured broadly above the map and smiled without teeth. Why have the meeting here, where just about anyone could possibly see? It was beyond Veronica, but Matilda had given the go-ahead, which would just have to do, she supposed.

As for why she'd not chosen to "settle down" where the elf was seated... Slitted eyes drifted to the table in front of the elf, loaded with croissants and teaware. Yeah, there wasn't any space there, and like hell she was going to risk getting food -or stars forbid, [i]drink[/i]- spilled on her map. Her ruby gaze rose from that sight to meet the elf's, a single brow rising with the upward perk of one corner of her lips. [color=ed1c24]"By all means, feel welcome. Any aid you can offer would hardly go amiss."[/color] She could have apologized for the unintentional snub, but given the elf's amused tone, it seemed that would be unnecessary.
