[CATHERYN]

"Let's go to the diner, then." Catheryn offers, "Rialto's treat." He's definitely rich enough to buy them all a meal, even though the diner is under her care and she could just waive payment, but where's the fun in that? Of course, Bloodfree is technically an establishment catering to vampires, but they do offer some human treats, that is to say, food without any blood in it. Catheryn thinks there's a bottle of whiskey in the very back of the industrial fridge that no one has ever opened because it's entirely ... blood-free. The name is a bit of an irony, don't ask questions.

She cants her head in the direction of the diner, starting to walk forward, knowing that Rialto and Alex will follow even if they don't particularly want to go there. They'll tag along just to annoy her about it, and maybe start a fight in the kitchen while they're at it. "I need a refill on my soda, anyway," she adds, which is not entirely untrue, but also, Catheryn had left a book in her office there, and she'd quite like to get it back.

Usually, she doesn't much care for learning about other people, but the night has just started, and this will be entertaining, if nothing else. Perhaps she'll be able to convince Alex to throw Rialto into the ocean later on, that will certainly be fun to watch.
