### Gossip

* Vittoria has been "Next in queue" for right of Progeny for so long that I'm beginning to wonder if they've found something troublesome in her background.
	+ It's always the same. Been dead for a few years, they think it *must* be their turn...
	+ The lad she fancies is *so lovely* though, heavens...
		- If she waits much longer, he won't be *nearly* so lovely.
		- His stained glass sculptures are *tres haute*. There's one displayed in Ashford.
			* They say its particularly clever the way he works his light sources into the piece itself: the one with the candle inside is said to look like it's alive when it's lit.
			* They replace the bulbs in the Ashford piece with twinkly ones at Christmas
	+ Perhaps she should do what the Nosferatu have: arrange a *short holiday* in Los Angeles, and come back with an "orphan" in Account. La Croix probably *wouldn't even notice.*
		- Respectable kindred prefer *legitimate* childer.
	+ They say she's tried to speak to The Herald herself, while her Primogen was off *gallivanting* or *whatever*. Lehner explained *exactly* how many rungs are *between them* on the ladder...
	+ Looks like she's getting what she came for... after throwing a tanty in the middle of Court...
		- In front of *all those Anarchs*...
			* We must look like idiots to them. Laughing stocks, we'll be.
			* *"In front of all those Anarchs"*, some neonate Malkavian stood up and proved to everyone who's holding the whip.
				+ Considering what happened AFTER all of that, I'd say that *that 'somebody'* had to *pay* for getting her family's business put first...
* Bit of a reputation as a harpy. She hasn't bagged any names worth dropping yet, but she's supposed to have torn some of the other neonates to tatters.
	+ The Tremere kept Aethyr 9teen stashed up somewhere for like two months in 2017.
	+ She's turned Bevis Nobbend down for a date to the Christmas thing like eight times, but rumor is she finally said yes *this* year, now he's Primogen.
		- That'll be quite a step up for her, if she doesn't wind up with Corvyn Fathom by New Years
		- Now he's *Primogen*, shouldn't he set his sights a little *higher?*
		- Looks like poor Bevis is going to have to angle for someone else... Vittoria will likely be bringing her *boy du jour.*
			* *RIP Bevis, quelle triste.*
	+ Word is she might get tapped for Council for Opposition for z3r0's Release?
		- Does she know that title's usually just a *formality*?
			* She does *now*. They didn't even *tell* Vittoria when they released her.
	+ Tore into that Waffle for interrupting Court with personal business.
		- Only because she had skin in the game.
			* A neonate, even one as infamous as the Waffler, does not get to arbitrarily over-rule the Prince saying "your suit will be *our next* *business*", no matter how urgent he pretends it is. We can't even have a civilised Court where things are handled in their proper order, *that's* why the moron brigade is laughing at us.
			* The Prince *let* himself be contradicted, in the end. Family Business must come first.
	+ Word around is she almost had herself some status, until she mistakenly claimed Nina Naira Mendoza was an Anarch.
		- An honest mistake, being fair: she was reporting that time Nina punched out 2too.
* She got kicked out of Papi Chulo's for something that not even the Head Harpy will say out loud, which means it's pretty fucking bad.
	+ It's because when you put that much cattiness together in an enclosed space, people die.
		- I think that's *ammonia*.
	+ *That's* not the way to score Harpy points.
* Her biggest phobia is Bronze.
	+ Still?!
		- *Still.*
