[attr="class","spiral"] Devon Corp. Disgusting. Even from the lobby, Fernando can feel his distaste for the competition. The legacy of his father still resides within him and despite knowing that the rivalry between them is some nonsensical pettiness, he cannot escape the hold of a multi-generational feud. The son of Devon, , had been both a thorn in his side and also his greatest threat to power. The daughter of Devon, @devon, had been a non-factor that he had entertained in other to spite her brother. But ? Fernando regards her as he does his siblings, a faux impostor who's related by name and nothing else.

Emma may have preferred to stay out of official Devon business but her name was branded onto them whenever she used her standings to brute force her way into high society. Being a socialite is not cheap, both financially and in regards to her time. Her limelight in the media, as short lived as it was, was vibrant with tying in her association with Devon. That alone, is how Fernando kept up with her.

The same cannot be said for Daphne. Fernando's never heard of her and that alone points toward her being alienated. By choice or due to some internal factors mean little difference. If the eldest sibling cannot hold the mantle of heir then they are useless. Yet, to Fernando's surprise, her name becomes the new Devon representative after Alexander's self imposed 'exile'. The transition in power is one that ripples across Hoenn, repeated in several offices by a new set of players. Fernando squints at the news, reading over it again on his computer screen before rubbing his temples.

The purge of old pieces give way to new ones and when enough of them change the game board becomes unrecognizable. A year goes into setting the game heavily into his favor and now Fernando must step up once more in order to maintain his dominance over the region. His first objective is to scout out the new heir while providing some closure to his victory over the former Champion.

Fernando waits in the lobby of Devon Corp with a folder of paper files deemed to sensitive to deliver digitally.

She hates this. [break][break]

She didn't want anything to do with this business rivalry; she never wanted anything to do with this. Yet, with her brother's absence, she was suddenly thrown into the position with little more than a letter, a phone call, or an e-mail. In spite of her ability to situate herself in this new position quickly, she can't help but to be slightly discomforted or even spiteful towards the brother who left so suddenly. Her presence in the company was scarce - she's aware - but she'd, at the very least, would like to know why her brother would leave so suddenly. [break][break]

The feud suffocated her, almost as much as the stagnant air in her office did. Windows were always kept open, but she'd miss the coziness of her little clinical office. Yet, she couldn't bring herself to turn down the position; this was her family, and she had both an obligation and desire for the corporation to thrive-- Even if she contributed so little in the past. In spite of this, the corporation did well under her supervision; quality nor production nor research were lacking. She could meet with others, and she had in the past. Many who attempted to use her for profit, or take advantage of what they assumed to be a sprout in business. To their dismay, she was thoroughly exposed to the shark waters of society from young, even if she had little chance to participate. Call it delayed imitation from watching in the background. [break][break]

And now, she had to meet with one of the Silphs. [break][break]

She's nervous, but she can't show it. She knows it improper and uncouth. Take deep breaths, in spite of the pit in her stomach and the slight, malicious bias that festers in her heart. It was a complex feeling; did she hold any personal grudge against the man she was to meet? No, she coudn't dislike a man before speaking to him. Yet, there was something about the Silph name that sparked both animosity and hostility. She couldn't put her finger on it (and for this unreasonable dislike, she feels shame). [break][break]

She doesn't know what to expect. [break][break]

Her back presses against the chair, and she sighs. Sooner was better than later, and she wasn't intending to keep a Silph for longer than they should be. She presses a button the phone and, though hesitant, speaks to the desk "Call Mr. Silph up". One of the women raises from the desk, now walking to the man with the intention to escort him to the office. [break][break]

Now she waits.

[attr="class","spiral"] There is little reason to berate a receptionist for something outside of her control. At the same time, there's even less reason to be courteous. Fernando takes the middle ground and keeps things concise, blunt with an equally flat expression that is only here for one reason: to conduct business. The elevator ride ride is met with an awkward silence stemming from Fernando's refusal to make small talk and the pressure of having to escort the CEO of another company. It isn't until the secretary leaves him in front of Daphne's office does he make any outward action.

Knock, knock.

Fernando knocks on the door several times as a forewarning before opening the doors to allow himself and audience with Devon's remains. A manilla folder lies in his right hand with several papers peeking out from the edge of the folder's dividers. "Good afternoon," he greets in monotone, approaching her desk.

Fernando. [break][break]

She's heard a few things about him; his reputation both good and bad. Still, this is business. She must leave the bias asides so that they may work together. Daphne leans forwards to straighten herself up in her seat once she hears the knocking. Left leg crossed over the other, with her hands resting against the surface of the desk. Her fingers tent against each other and with a simple "Enter." she sees his figure approaching the burgundy desk. [break][break]

He is greeted with stoicism; almost cold. She puts in slight effort to hide distaste when she motions to a chair across the desk from her. "Good afternoon, Mr. Silph." She motions to the chair opposite of her. "Take a seat." Her words were as flat as her empty expression.

[attr="class","spiral"]Every head has their own method of enacting exchanges between their peers and rivals. Fernando has no qualms with taking a seat despite his own disposition for standing. The lack of a handshake is a minor detail but one he holds in silence. While he may hold the title of Silph CEO he comes today as a representative of the League, to relieve Devon of the burden of chaperoning a Champion.

"There are some loose ends that Stone left behind prior to his trip to Sinnoh." Fernando's habit of referring to others by their surname is not suppressed despite being in front of the other Stone. He assumes she'll be able to read between the lines of his mannerism, with it being painstakingly obvious he's pointing toward the sudden excursion of her old brother.

"I figured I would drop by to entrust them to your hands personally."

He places the folder onto her desk, sliding it forward, toward her.

her brothers disappearance wasn't a secret. Not anymore. [break][break]

naturally, it would reach the ears of someone (if not those in the league, then it be the higher powers in the region). it was a major tear through the region; without their champion, who would lead as a governing power over the region? though she knows, she had long tried to push the political obstacles around her brother's disappearance aside. she didn't want to think about it. [break][break]

she quietly takes the folders and papers, then quickly skims through the pages that she assumed all needed her attention. she raises a brow.[break][break]

"and this is?"

[attr="class","spiral"] Fernando keeps his eyes on her own, tracking which document she's on and trying his best to trace along which section Daphne is reading. There's no way for him to memorize the contents of the documents but he has a general grasp which sheets cover which topics. "A formal agreement to relieve Stone of his association with the League and the re-installment of Devon's assets he may have used for League sponsored activities."

With Alexander out of the picture and therefore out of his way, there's no competition to conspire against his agenda to further integrate the League into deeper ties with Silph Co. This may not yield a profit our any obvious benefits to himself but there is value in being the primary benefactor to a governmental office. Combine that with his position as councilman and the possibilities are endless.

"I presume you will be the acting head of Devon. Those resource will now be under your jurisdiction to use as you see fit. It would be inappropriate to keep resources that were lended."

displeasure is like the taste of steel in her mouth; uncomfortable and unnecessary. that being said, this proposal was unnecessary. as far as she was concerned, devon was and always had been a strong power in hoenn; hoenn was the home of devon corp, and devon corp was the heart of hoenn (an egotistical and needlessly patriotic or prideful statement to make). nevertheless, she takes another gander and look through the papers before setting them back, neatly in their ordered pile. "i see." [break][break]

though she took alexander's position, she wasn't under the mindset of completely pulling out of what he had invested in. though the corporation was adjusting to her abrupt rise and shift in power, they were at no loss in resources. especially not when they had already formed a connection and relationship with the league. to some degree, she had to question why they would bring the proposal up; but she also knows that it should be mandatory, even when they know she will keep the investment into the league. [break][break]

"indeed, these resources are under my jurisdiction" she repeats, before closing the file. "and i have no intention to pull them out from the league. i will read the rest of these forms and files, and i will respond to the league at a later date."

[attr="class","spiral"] Daphne provides the predictable response, the correct response all things considered but Fernando expects that much. Anyone with an ounce of business acumen knows better than to retract their standings with a governmental office. The deeper their pockets the better hence his visit to sever their ties. If she won't budge then he'll use her for his own means, twisting with just enough pressure to re-purpose her in Alexander's place.

"Regardless of your intent, this is non-negotiable. Since the League is liable for borrowed resources we must return all assets until Stone returns to resume his preordained Devon-League affairs. Once a Devon representative has confirmed that the League has returned the assets and in acceptable condition, we can move forward as business allows." However, if she's insistent, he might as well offer the alternative. "Unless, of course, you were to forfeit the rights to any borrowed assets. Liability isn't a concern if the League owns such property."

it might as well have been, with how she was biting to hold it. in spite of that, she maintains composure. was he serious? of course he was; he was a silph. she wasn't keen of pulling the assets out of the league, nor was she keen of forfeiting them to the league. he offered two options that, in her humble opinion, were mightyena shit. his final words, however, has the woman take a deep breath and shake her head. "that will not be necessary." she says, leaning forwards to the desk and resting her hands against the table top. [break][break]

a deep, blue gaze spares the files a sparing glance, and she shakes her head. "my brother's disappearance is irrelevant to the assets devon offered to the league. i am aware that he was the champion, but the transaction was with the head at the time. and as the head--" until her brother returns, that is. "-- until i can properly read the forms and speak to another representative at a later date, i will with-hold any decisions regarding it."[break][break]

she was the head of devon; her brother made that decision while he was the head of devon, and as the head of devon. his presence in hoenn was irrelevant at this point; the fact was that the head of devon made the choice, and now the head of devon is standing with it. she didn't see an issue. "and if there are any issues, i will arrange a meeting, myself."

[attr="class","spiral"] How cute. The stress of being cornered shows in how she carries herself. At least that's how Fernando interprets it. The more she squirms the more pressure he wants to apply, until her pulse stops and she asphyxiates on her family's incompetence. But at this point, her strangulation looks self-inflicted. Who said he was here to barter? The fact that Devon thinks it has any control over the matter shows a gross disrespect to his time and presence. Fernando does not make personal trips over matters that are negotiable.

Fernando is absolute.

"Do as you will. Unfortunately, the League will move forward as scheduled. If a Devon representative will not serve as an auditor then the League will hire a third party on its behalf and return the goods accordingly. Legally, it's against the League's interest —against anyone's interest — to hold onto something it does not own yet remain liable. Naturally, Devon will be billed for the cost of the third party consultants."

Fernando pauses, frowning.

"But I understand the difficulties of having an abrupt departure and the bottleneck it places for those transitioning. If you cannot make time for such a decision I can foot the bill for the consultants myself. Consider it a gift from a friend of your brother."

he was toying with her; looking down on her. the gaze in his eyes and the way he carried himself was clear. it wasn't anything she was unfamiliar with; perhaps that's why she felt more distaste than what should have been pressure? she didn't know what nonsense this oaf was spouting, and she can't help but to worry, subtly, under the icy exterior she held. was this the same way he had treated her younger brother in the time he was head? she shudders to think of it. [break][break]

shudders in frustration. [break][break]

she'd thought him taught better than that. pursing her lips and directing an icy glare to the man, she leans back to cross her arms and legs. "no." she says, flatly. he was a representative of the league; and that's all he was in her office, at the moment. "i do not believe i made myself quite clear, so i will repeat myself; the issue here is that the previous head is no longer in hoenn" she says, narrowing her eyes to the file "indeed, this would be a problem where the league would be liable - and it would be in their best interest to return what the previous head had offered." she shifts her gaze back to fernando. "but it will not be an issue if the current head were to reinstate a contract for the league to continue using said assets." [break][break]

she sighs and rubs the back of her neck. "this is a pressing matter, if it really is as you describe. it requires my immediate attention, among other things." but she knows that she can't act rashly without thoroughly looking through the files. "i appreciate the assistance from a fellow--" a pause, and slightly nauseating feeling "--business partner, but that is unnecessary. you are aware, as well as i am, how important a connection the league is." and this woman - the nerve of her - gives the man a slight smile in gratitude. [break][break]

she felt disgusted.

[attr="class","spiral"] Fernando's expression evolves from one of sympathy into one that's questioning both her understanding of the issue and her perception of how much influence she truly has. The quizzical look that settles on his face is both apparent and purposeful, allowing her to read him to better gauge his intentions. "You do understand what it means to renew a governmental contract, right?"

Fernando sounds more genuine and curious than condescending, trying to probe into Daphne's facial cues to measure her own stance on the subject. "Private businesses have very little power in negotiations when it comes to legal obligations. Even if you were to reinstate Stone's previous contract, that would, again, only be after someone, be it Devon or the League, assesses the state of contractual assets and confirms their status — to ensure what we hold currently matches the condition of what we were given. Disparaging claims between two parties gets too messy for how much bureaucracy the government already has to handle."

good, so she was being coherent. [break][break]

she waits for him to finish before nodding her head. her hand reaches towards the folder holding the forms, and she pulls it towards herself. "precisely why i said i will deal with the matter and speak to them myself." her smile had shrunk, as her expression returned to the normal, cold stoic she had grown familiar with. "i intend to speak to a league representative shortly after i read on the details and obtain a better grasp on the situation. if i pursue the new contract, i will organize a meeting and schedule for an inspection of the previous assets. this is also for me to get a grasp on what exactly the previous head provided." she pauses "i will also take another look over the current - or, previous - contract." [break][break]

in any case, she was already prepared to clear up any messes or loose ends her little brother might have left for her. was this his way of spiting her for being so absent in the family? if it were, he got her good. [break][break]

"... of course, it's still far too early to rush into things. i have not read the documents in full, after all." but he was right; she sorely underestimated the power her name - and her position - had over people. on the other hand, she wasn't pressured to rush and make any hasty decisions. it would look bad on her - and by extension, devon - if she were to fly into a panic or stress.
