It loses a little something in the translation I think, Señor Mack. In the courts of the Old World an education in such matters is still customary, and I tend to forget that these New World courts are a bit rough around the edges.
In any case, it was simply an old-fashioned send-off. Live or die well. When accosting the Lupines sometimes the best you can hope for is the latter.

Myself, for the most part. I've been spending nearly as much time in their territory as not. Most of my clues centered on the green strip between the two, it looked to me like they were setting up in the smaller location that had been shut down for a while. Where'd you get yours?

Hi there everyone! Your friendly neighborhood Sheriff here with yet ANOTHER REMINDER about some stuff.
This whole offensive thing can get very VERY fuckin ugly. Very fast.
I REALLLLLLLLLLLLY Don't fancy cleaning up anyone else's messes. So let me make this perfectly clear, and yeah I know I've said it again, but I am pretty well INSISTING THIS TIME.
IF YOU BREAK THE MASQUERADE, I will seek maximum punishment to be brought down upon your pretty little heads.
this is NOT up for discussion, nor will it ever be. You have a problem with that? Well then you had best find a way to be keeping that mask up eh?
Thanks so much~
Oodles of love and all that junk, Inara The goddamn Sheriff

Yeah well as Nara is saying in her own luvable way is since we three are the protectors of the gathering perhaps we had better discuss this matter fully. Talk to Kuro Necko and get the location of a meet and greet lets talk and get some things sorted out cuz this thing needs serious planning. Incidentally sister you're the Sheriff you can't completely wash your hands of this matter the security of the city encompasses the moon beasts.

I am of course still available to clean up unfortunate messes that may leak into the media, but be forewarned. Such favors are not free.

Believe me when I say I am not washing my hands of this at all. There are things at work from my end as well. Though my tactics may perhaps be a little less smashy and bashy for this particular endeavor.

The entire point, Mr. La Cruz, is to have those kindred that aren't directly fighting on kine control, so that possible breaches don't happen in the first place. As our Prince said just last gather, the wolves are everybody's problem, and if you wish to argue that he only said for nobody to demand boons from the Sheriff for dealing with this threat, then I will simply pass control of the attack over to her, and that will be that, won't it?
I assume that you have a fair amount of experience working with the kine. You're free to work kine control on this operation, there is a nearby suburb that I expect will require the most attention. Thank you for your aid.

Oh, I sure that the Sheriff has things well under control. The Brujah are after all well known for their close connections to the Kine and their culture.
Nothing is ever free amongst our society Señor, nothing.

I agree on the second point. I believe the Prince's offered method of payment was something along the lines of 'continued priveledge to live in my domain' or something of the sort, the exact phrasing escapes me.
Nevermind the fact that this is everyone's problem. Another month or two and it doesn't matter where you live, you're gonna have garou knocking on your door at high noon. Seriously, I'd rather not jump face first into a pack of rapid wolves either, but I'd rather do it at night, with the entire court's backup, than wake up cause someone was slobbering on my face, and have to deal with it then.

Your faith in your fellow Kindred is truly touching.
Naive and perhaps misplaced, but touching nonetheless.

Alright, fine. If payment will get people to speak up, how about this. Harpy, I hope you're paying attention.
One blood boon to each kindred who stands shoulder to shoulder with me and take on these werewolf in hand to hand.
One major boon to each kindred that physically aids in the killing of these invaders, be it blades, guns, fire magic, supportive disciplines, whatever.
One minor boon to each kindred that aids in defending the masquerade during the attack, be it through influence or manual handling of suspicious kine on site, any of that sort of thing.
Note that I may require proof for some of the more subtle things, within reason, and that I'm defining the worth of the boon I'm giving based on the risk of personal harm -expected- with each general job you're expected to handle.
One boon per kindred, and if for example you are out back dominating a kine to delete his cell phone gallery and wind up taking a potshot at a nearly dead running garou, that's still just a minor boon.
Prove what you're worth, Red Deer.

I do note this Mack. However I shall set precedent. As an elder and officer of this court I do hereby offer my services to protect the Masquerade, as well as provide weapons and ammunition for the initiative, for free. It is your prerogative to offer these boons Mack, however those that actually take you up on your offer may be looked at askance. Remember we are at war. If you feel you must be paid to protect the city that offers you feeding and Haven, remember that those that do so freely are often awarded status and domain.

That is exactly my point, thank you. Nobody seems to want to step up as is, but if this convinces a few more to aid in the effort, then it's worth it.

For those of you with bags of money, no influence, and little imagination might I suggest the following. I count 70 houses in the surrounding suburbs immediately within view of this area. I estimate five persons per household that approximately 350 people. If you post each households five tickets at $20 per person that makes $7000. A couple of phone calls to the vendors I'm sure will allow you to throw in some sampling tokens which will encourage people to go to this event. It not a surety that everyone will leave but I imagine crowd control will get significantly better. I'd say that's a bargain for safety of the masquerade.
Alberta Food & Beverage Expo
