Alex - "Julian, I'm thinking about getting a job. It's been awhile since I ran a business
and my ventrue blood wants that again. Whats open for me to stick my fangs into?"

Julian - "I can always use a brilliant venture mind like yours. What were you thinking
big, medium small?"

Alex - "It's always nice controlling a lot of money. But I've got business running still in NYC.
I was thinking about scaling back and being a little more hands on. Something just to
fiddle with. I've gotten interested in clothing. Maybe develop a clothing line. Nothing like
designing. I leave that creative stuff up to the toreadors. More like a backer."

Julian - "I think that's a great idea. We have a lot of connections w/textile and manyfacturing.
You find the talent and we can start working on the rest."

Alex- "Great, I think it will be fun. I'll need another distraction..other than Cash." smile.

Julian - "So how is it going between you two??"

Alex - "Wonderful. I'm having a great time. I haven't seen anyone blush as
much as you used to until now."

Julian - Blushes at the memories "I guess you still have that effect on me." we laugh.

Alex - "How is Sasha doing? She was here the other night. I felt her presence.
She was in the garage, probably waiting for Cash."

Julian - "How strong are your powers these days? "

Alex -"Really strong. If you want to step into the ring with me sometime, I'll show you
some new ones."

Julian - "I'm afraid I won't make it out in one piece."

Alex - "The brujah around here should really watch it. I have to hold back from killing
them for thier insolence. Has Eddie been teaching them anything?"

Julian -"Just how to steal and kill. He is pushing for a fight. He's coming right after
me hoping to keep the other clans out of it."

Alex -"The attack on Sasha is unforgiveable. The other clans should be worried. Do they
want the Brujah taking over? They are being short sighted if they can't see what Eddie
is doing. Even if they don't take your side, I'm still Ventrue and I stand at your side
ready to do your bidding. I could become your enforcer. Cash has potential but he
still is young. Imagine the Grangrel Primegon not being able to fight off two brujah.
Maybe I should give him a few drops of my blood. He might need it to be a better guard for you."

Julian - "Just a few drops, is that enough?"

Alex - "Have you forgotten how old I am? I think I've lost count! I'm not even sure if I've tapped
into all my powers. Most of the time I try to block them. I was even thinking that if we
drained Sasha of her brujah blood and gave her some of my blood, it might
help. Maybe not transform her completely to Ventrue but less brujah . It may give her
her control back. We could then claim her to our clan. But this will definitely start a war
with the brujah. But I'm willing to try. Actually if you allow it I'll take care of them."

Julian - excited "If you think the transfusion will work then I want to try.
War with the Brujah will happen anyways."

Alex - "We should do it right away before the Brujah find out our plan.
I will go tell Cash to find her."

Julian - "What about you and Cash? If you can stop the hate then he may go back to her."

Alex - "That would be too selfish even for me. I do this to right what was wrong. For you,
Sasha and Cash. I can wait if I need to. But I want to remind you that I don't know if
this will work. But I will do my best. It is early in her transformation. I know
it will help, even if it is just a little. I'll find you when all is ready."

Julian - Hugs & kiss "Thank you Alex, You already have my love and loyality
and now you have my unending gratitude."
