Peitho knew full well the words and conversations that followed her as she moved and as she walked amongst the crowd and headed for her destination. It was part of who she was but also because it was what she'd planned. She would be lying if she denied that she didn't like how she affected others as she passed by either. But her attentions were focused elsewhere and they took priorities over anything else.
It wouldn't sit well with her if Lottie was put out or hurt in anyway while here. This was her idea, and and wanted her to have fun, not be subjected to riducule or interrogation. If that was what was truly happening, Petty would make sure it ended and the old bitties didn't get away with it. She carried far more weight than they would like to admit and she was wealthier and more influential than them all and they knew it.
She smiled and took notice of the change in the others as she moved beside Philotes. It did amuse her so how ones like these to over tried to surpass her. She couldn't fault them of course but it just made them bitter and jealous and they had habit of being mean gossips so they deserved what they got. Of course Peitho could be mean and vengeful herself, but that wasn't for times like this, not completely. Oh the gossip would be rife from this but she would curb it to good attention for her and Philotes, for those few others who had gained favour for her.
"Hello my darling," she said with her own grin and kissed Philotes back on the cheek as well. She didn't know what her friend has planned but she would definitely play along. "You know me, always in the right place at the right time." She pat her arm as they linked their and looked to the two women. "As they say I'm the persuasive one. You flatter me love, for you outshine many others as well." Peitho beamed at her, the two of them standing likely far too close but she didn't care.
Peitho curtsied as was custom and put on her most charming of faces. "Ah, ladies, of course. You are absolutely well known no question." She turned back to Lottie and sighed. "It's true. I must beg your forgiveness as well but I simply must snatch her away for a bit. I shall hopefully endeavour not to keep you abandoned for too long though. It is after all the least I could do."
