HOUNSLOW TERRITORY CLAIM

As per this month's faction reward, the Hillingdon Clan will successfully take the territory of Hounslow from the Redbright Institute.
Here is how that comes to pass and the agreements made to make it possible...
Closed to Daryl; Tuesday, August 30th
Oh yes, that had Faolan thinking about the vampires alright. And just what to do about the situation. Because something must be done. They can't continue on now as they had, not after this. Faolan doesn't care if he has a bias on the matter. They had their chance to do this peacably, and now Hillingdon will make them pay.
The question, of course, is how. A question that Faolan sits in his office contemplating for hours on end. And that should be where he is, if anyone should happen to be looking for him...

Closed to Arthur; Tuesday, August 30th - later
He hasn't heard from Arthur since before recent developments, but he figures that he should know about them as well if he doesn't already, and so it is with determination that Faolan sets out to locate the other man. It will be good to talk this out with someone who wasn't just involved in the rescue raid. Just in case this is more of a kneejerk reaction to that than he thinks it is.

Closed to Hillingdon; Thursday, September 1st
And so it is that Faolan calls a Hillingdon Clan Meeting together. One of the only meetings they have had in the last while. Gathering all who attend together in the dining room and setting as many chairs around the large table and about the edge of the room as he can, to give everyone the opportunity to attend that he can.
When the meeting starts, Faolan is not sitting at the head of the table but rather in the middle of a side. A deliberate move, to demonstrate that at least in his mind, he is not holding himself in as high a position as the head of the table might imply. He glances around the room at those in attendance before he takes a deep breath and begins.
"I have called you all here today because I believe that we have something to discuss. A dilemma of which I'm sure we've all been aware for some time. Possibly longer than the city itself. But I also believe the state of things has reached a point where it cannot continue. Something must be done. And though Hillingdon has long sat out of the matters of the city, we are hunters. This is what we do. If ever there were a time for us to step up and defend what is ours, then I believe it to be now." He throws another glance around the room, gauging what reactions he's receiving across their faces before turning the question onto the people themselves.
"Hillingdon cannot stand against such a power such as we are. Thus we are faced with three choices. We may turn to our neighbors in battle, to try and take from Redbright for ourselves in a way that will put us on the playing board in a way we may not want to display ourselves. We may turn to them in peace, lending our expertise against this unifying threat in negotiation for more territory. More people. Or we may do nothing. And allow the vampires to continue their path of murder and destruction."
He allows another beat of silence, to let the three ideas sink in, before sitting straighter in his chair and continuing, "All those in attendance, I would welcome your opinion and your vote on the matter." And then he sits back to listen.

Closed to Lancelot; Thursday, September 1st - evening
He spends the rest of the afternoon after the meeting contemplating the situation itself and how to approach it before, while going through his fifth possible 'worst case scenario' he knows that he has spent too long in his own head. Glancing up from the table he has found himself in the now almost-abandoned cafe and finding himself almost alone save for the waitstaff who continues to float around and attempt to refill his coffee, he realizes he needs to approach this differently. So after a moment he produces his phone and with another moment's thought, opens up a text to Lancelot:
Hey, are you working tonight?

Closed to Sylvia (& Guards); Saturday, September 3rd
He knows what Hillingdon is after. He knows what they are willing to give up to get it, and the line that they are not willing to cross. He's been a member of the clan itself long enough to have a pretty good grasp on what it is to belong to it, as much as a grasp on what it is to run the thing. But this is Sylvia Redbright. A woman who, as far as Faolan is concerned, seems to almost have a monopoly on the supernatural community of London itself. Whether she means to or not has yet to be seen.
All that Faolan knows is that he must be very careful here. And careful, while in his vocabulary, is not always an achievable concept as far as Faolan's reality is concerned...

Closed to Hillingdon & Redbright members; Sunday, September 4th & onward
For now, Hillingdon is to work with Redbright. And as such they need to know what it is that they are dealing with. Faolan encourages Hillingdon members into the territory, to seek out those of Redbright as an escort of sorts. Have the Redbright members show them the lay of the land. And if they should happen to be able to weedle information out of them about Redbright itself, then that is encouraged as well...
