Things were happening behind the scenes as Lita stood around mingling with the various guests at the ball. In the grand scheme of things it was interesting that the assassin was enjoying the party while her would-be companions had gone off and killed a a noble. From her current point of view however, it seemed like there was just a commotion happening. Excusing herself, Lita went to go and investigate what was up with the person she was ostensibly a guest through. On the way she motioned for Goldhardt to follow, who did so clankfully.
Catching up with the others she overheard Cecily explain that she just needed her own bodyguard and that she was going to retire to her quarters. That was settled without Lita needed to do much, despite her own bodyguard's intimidating presence. Approaching the group with the upper class veneer she had donned for mingling still in tact to keep up appearances in the open, she said, "Would you like for us to join you as well?" She wasn't going to imply anything about why she had asked that given Cecily's rather heated reaction to finding out about their profession and employer, but Lita still wanted to extend an olive branch.
