Macavity noticed the new arrival and sauntered over. "Welcome, glad you could make it Mr....?" he asked, titling his head as he considered the other. He certainly didn't recognize him, but he must have been on the guest list to get in.

"Skimbleshanks McBride. I believe your brother, Munkustrap, works for me. I assume you're Macavity?"

"Ah yes, sorry I didn't recognize you at first. Too many other cats around tonight and all that. 'lad ta finally meet you, and yeah, I'm Macavity Hollister," he said, holding out a paw to be shaken.

"Aye, that's perfectly alright." He took the proffered paw and shook it. "You should be proud of your brother. He's a hardworking lad. Overworks himself sometimes though."

Mac nodded, smiling and releasing the paw after the shake was completed. "'Straps has always been that way," he said. "Used ta work himself ta sickness. Speakin' of which," he glanced around the crowd. "Ah, there he is," he said, leading the way over toward where he saw Electra and Munkustrap.

He saw where Macavity was leading him and grinned. "Munkustrap, me lad. How are you?" He turned to the queen by his side. "And who might this pretty lass be?"

Munkus offered his employer a smile, the surprise he felt at the appearance completely hidden from the cats around him. "Mr. McBride. Good to see you. I'm doing well." He paused a moment, glancing at the queen beside him. "This is Miss Electra Peirce. Electra, my boss, Mr. Skimbleshanks McBride."

Electra glanced up at the appearance of Macavity and another cat. "Oh, it's very nice to meet you," she said to Skimble, holding out a paw.
Mac nodded at the three of them, and then grabbed Munkustrap's shoulder, steering him away. "Excuse us just a moment you two, I want ta discuss somethin' with my brother."
Electra raised a brow at them, but nodded, turning back to Skimbleshanks.

Munkus opened his mouth to protest, but quickly realized it wasn't up for debate and fell silent, shrugging his brother's paw off with a sidelong glance at the flame-colored tabby.

Mac didn't protest the lack of contact, meandering off into the crowd a little until they were out of earshot. "So, that bracelet..."

Munk's ears flickered at that. He'd been hoping to avoid the conversation. "What about it?"

"It looks awfully familiar," Mac said, noticing the ear flicker. "Any thoughts on that?"

"Several, and apparently so do you. If you've got something to say say it."

"Ah, the pleasure is mine." He placed a chaste kiss on her paw. "Munkustrap is a lucky lad." He glanced around them. "How are you enjoying the party?"
