It just happens to be one of those days...or one of those nights, anyway. Kali is not someone who particularly loves spending time in Elysium but she shows up regularly regardless. It's important, after all, to make a regular showing at Richthofen and keep herself in the public eye, so that perhaps if something were to happen to her someone might take notice. And besides, she is a member of the Camarilla and it behooves her to make a regular showing so she can keep abreast of the latest and greatest news that the Ivory Tower has to offer.
Tonight, as her three-inch heels click on the hardwood floor of the Elysium, she has more specific business here. The Ravnos is, perhaps surprisingly, not in her usual hooker garb tonight. She had just come from another business dealing where she had to look...well, not like a hooker. So instead of the corsets and knee-high boots, she was dressed in a tailored women's business suit, her red-dyed hair back in a ponytail. Still, she wears her trademark smirk as she makes her way into the hall, having paused to say hello to Estelle and go through the rigamarole. She volunteered her gun if asked; these days, she goes nowhere without it. It saved her life in these very halls not so long ago.
When she sees Lucille in conversation with a newcomer, she slows her steps. Kali is a snarky little thing, but she knows etiquette and as much as people might assume otherwise from her because she has a barbed tongue and an occasional (okay, more than occasional) bluntness about using it, she actually follows the rules of etiquette around those people that it's important to. She's a creature of two worlds: the hallowed halls of the Camarilla and the harsh realities of the street. Putting on one of the other...it's just like masks to her.
And so she smiles a little to the duo but doesn't interrupt until one of them calls attention to her. Instead she turns her attention to the decor, looking it over for the umpteenth time. It may look like she's doing busy work while they handle their business, but in truth she's doing what she always does...observing her environment and finding ways that, perhaps some day, it can be of use to her.
