Coricopat unlocked the door to the penthouse, slipping inside and closing the door behind him. He hung up his coat and hat out of sight of the door and moved over to a chair to wait for Mistoffelees to finish bidding his guests farewell. He picked up the book that the owner of the penthouse had left on a side table and turned the lamp nearest his chair on.

A while later a key turned in the lock and Mistoffelees finally pushed the door open. As soon as he spotted Coricopat though, his entire face lit up and he shut the door behind him, leaning against it for a moment. "Hey."

Cori looked up, smiling. He set the book aside, "Hello, love."

Misto arched his brows at that description, but grinned. Pushing off the door, he discarded his suit jacket and draped it across the back of a chair. "Oh, god. I thought that would never end. How was your night?"

"Mostly dull. Macavity stopped by for a while and we talked, but beyond that didn't interact much with anyone."

"No," Mistoffelees remarked with a faint smile. "You really didn't. How often were you watching me anyway?"

"If I say most of the evening, how strange will you find me?" Coricopat's lips curled into a smile.

"Considering how well I know you at this point, not entirely," Mistoffelees said with a grin, loosening his tie slightly and considering some of the papers strewn across the coffee table. He bent down to start gathering and arranging them. "Notice anything particular?"

"Not really. Though I'm curious about the Abyssinian queen who was there, and about the older queen who approached you near the end of the gala," he replied.

"The..." he frowned slightly and considered. "Cassandra A... Adamora? No, I think it was Amonasro?" His tail flickered at the mention of the older queen. "Oh, did you mean the one that asked me for a charitable contribution for anti-indecency laws, including stricter punishment for sodomy?"

"Amonasro? I may have to see what I can find about her... And that queen did what?" The lawyer looked amused by that, "What did you tell her?"

"That I would consider it, but I had many charitable functions to consider," Mistoffelees muttered and pouted at Coricopat's expression. "You're amused by this... I just about had a heart attack in the middle of the floor and you're amused."

Coricopat bit his lip, but his voice still sounded like he was suppressing laughter, "You evidently survived, so I think it's alright."

"I..." Mistoffelees started and put his hands on his hips, considering the other. "You're about to laugh. You're going to laugh at me."

"No. I'm going to laugh at your situation. Not at you," he finally gave up on trying to hide his smile.
