Griddlebone entered the Demoniaque the day after Growltiger had returned, uncertain of actually being there. She'd told 'Tiger she was going to the jewler's to see about her necklace, and she supposed part of that was true, she just wasn't at the jeweler's. Her gaze swept around the reception hall and she hesitated before moving over to the front counter, waiting to catch Smith's eye.

Martin didn't even bother to look at her as he continued. "After all, you're loyalties seem to have reverted to their natural place. Good to see Thames back in town, is it not?"

She paled at that, "How did..." The white queen swallowed hard, "I take this to mean that you were kind enough to tell your employer then?"

Martin gave her a long look. "He doesn't want to see you. Period. So no, he's not in his office."

Grids ran a paw over her eyes, "You know, until this happened I would have sworn you hated him." She shook her head slightly, "Good day."
