( muffled voices in the background, and then a clear voice speaking directly into the pendant: )

I need at least one person to run distraction while I invite myself into this study, who's here? At the auction, in this House of Commerce nonsense.

( Light help her. She looks skyward for a moment, simply shaking her head. )

Who'd you leave hanging on the high bids?

[beitangmoran]

I didn't take names, and ultimately, it doesn't matter. I wasn't planning on closing any of them from the start, simply give them something to hang onto.

Now that's the most sensible thing I've heard tonight.
