Giger, Greenville, Tommy, Mike
Tremere, Mortal, Mastiff
Mike's Place

> "Tommorrow will work."  Tommy reached behind his and
> grabbed a business card which he handed to Giger.  

Giger takes the card and studies it for a moment,
taking note of the card stock and the type and
coloring of the lettering. As a librarian, he was
familiar with a wide variety of type fonts.  Once
assessed, he tucks it into the breast pocket of his
suit.   

"I am looking forward to it already."  He replies. 
That book was a rare volume he'd been trying to track
down for the Regent of Baltimore for a little while
now.  While he was no longer under the Regent's
tutelage, it could be parleyed into a favor owed, or
at the very least, a modicum of respect from the
Regent, which in the rigidity of the pyramid, was
worth its weight in platinum.  
   
> "Is there anything else I can help you with?"
 
Giger puts his hand on his chin in thought.  He could
ask about Warding spells, but he'd rather not reveal
too much to the mortal.  "No, not at this time."  He
says, offering a debit card to pay for the purchases,
which he does not take his eyes off of.  He may be a
Childe of the last century, but that did not mean he
was firmly stuck in it.  Unlike some of his
contemporaries, he had chosen to adapt to the changing
world.  And unlike them, he still walked the earth.   


He looks then at Elizabeth.  She was definitely a
creature of a time and a world long past.  Could one
so ancient truly adapt to this new age?  He hoped so,
as he wanted to continue to enjoy her company.   

With the purchases paid for and safely bagged, and
Elizabeth at his side, Giger puts the debit card back
into his wallet and tucks it away into his pants
pocket.  "Thank you for all of your help.  I believe
that we can see ourselves out."  

With that, Giger leads Elizabeth toward the door,
taking care to hold it open for her, even though he
was already somewhat burdened with the purchases.  A
small burden should not dissuade a gentleman from the
practice of proper etiquette.
