Clarence arrived quietly, as he often did. Not one to draw attention to himself in a crowd, the man made his way between a few other members before settling down and fixing his eyes on Atticus to hear what he had to say. While it'd been a little odd at first, he had to admit that the weekly meetings were a nice aspect of his life here. Thanks to them, he always felt as though he knew what was going on and where he could find it. Even if he'd struggled with the idea of a community of talking animals at first, he was learning more and more each day that they were just like, if not better than, the community he'd had in his old home. Clarence understood what Atticus meant when he discussed various events but then he went on for some time discussing traditions, something the panther hadn't really taken the time to familiarize himself. He kept thinking he needed to ask someone about all of that, but he just hadn't really gotten around to it. Then his own named was mentioned. His dark eyes widened in mild surprise as the Seraph looked towards him and spoke of some kind of 'promotion,' saying he'd now be a lieutenant. He wasn't really sure where that fell within all the ranks here, but it sounded rather important. He waited until he heard Orpheus' name spoken and and then the last bit of announcements before he spoke, "Congratulations to Orpheus for his title and thank you very much, Atticus, for my promotion. I'll do my best to serve you well." And he meant it. Clarence wasn't one to pledge loyalty lightly, but he felt it was the only reasonable response in this case. The Ascendants had taken him in without a second thought and put up with his endless questions and 'discoveries.' They'd truly welcomed him. For that, he was in their debt.
