Red eyes flicker from one familiar face to the other, finally settling on his long standing patron. Only now does he lower his weapon; clicks the safety back where it belongs.

"If Lord Vayan, renowned for his wisdom and open mind, brings his business into my house, he will suffer the consequences like any other of my guests. However, one wishes not to offend such an esteemed gentlebeing, especially not when the fault cannot be placed squarely on his shoulders." Double meanings and double faces, you should never judge a member of Vayan's species like a book by its cover. Similarly, only someone who knows Lorne will see just how unsettled he is. By all of this.

"Lord Vayan's membership will unfortunately come under suspension for this transgression. For that, and for the lives he has lost, I give my condolences."

His eyes move again to Angel. Gunn. That...Watcher fellow? And Spike. Even Spike had to be here. And back to Vayan, awaiting his next move.
