What: A fancy dinner party at Balthier’s house
When: May 14
Where: Balthier’s House
Entry
Living Room
Kitchen
// generally beautifully restored historic late 1800s building in muted green and gold accents with antique furniture. pls compliment or insult him //
Content Warnings: none yet
[ The antique table has both leaves in it, extending from the dining room into the living room with twelve chairs around it. It's got a stately tablecloth and pale gold napkins. All the places are set with white china trimmed in gold, except one, which is green and gold and clearly for Loki, with a matching cup. There are name cards. There's a seating chart. The far wall of the dining room sports a buffet laden with stunning food in matching dishes, and the kitchen counter serves as a bar with a ridiculous amount of nice wine and alcohol.
The furniture in the living room has been rearranged to accommodate the table. The windows and doors are open to create a breeze and the back porch has additional seating. If people are looking for privacy, they can disappear to the basement, which is just a storage room, bathroom, and laundry unit, or upstairs where there is a loft study, a bathroom, and two bedrooms. One is locked. There are no bathrooms on the ground floor so excuses abound.
There’s also Romantic piano music playing on an honest-to-God gramophone. The whole house is restored original wood, antique furniture, old books, and nice art. Balthier is extremely pleased with his ship-like house and happy to finally show it off. He also asked Strange to enchant it to make it more or less metaproof for the evening.
TLDR:
-There will be a fine meal and plenty of alcohol
-Balthier will be giving Loki poison as condiments at some point (don’t @ him David and Billy) ((definitely @ him))
-There’s music if anyone wants to dance
-There are private places to slip into
-The house has been metaproofed to some extent by Stephen but Balthier will frown upon breaking his stuff
-Chaos pls

"I wish I could have a place like this. The farm's great and all, but then there's all the strings attached." He's...still got plenty of doubts about the Alliance. Moreso after what he's heard about with the Expo.
no subject
To the place comment he nods. "I'm not entirely free of guild attachments, but I've made an effort to get things in my name in the event of separation. And store money away where they can't entirely keep track. My spending habits don't make inflated purchases unreasonable." Look he's a pirate with an aristocratic background; he knows how contracts and money work.

"I think they need to be watched more than anything, but I'm not about to report anyone who decides to wear the cape outside of their oversight. I just...don't know. Things are strange. Back home the Justice League didn't tell you what you could and couldn't do as much as set an example to live up to."
no subject
To the latter, he stops and considers thoughtfully. "I'm not remotely abreast of what is normal behavior for metahumans or their equivalents." He hates the word superhero and will avoid it. "But I'm familiar enough with systems of power and the benefits and dangers of them. They are all corrupt, in the end, but order has value, as does resource access. That said, I'm not holding my breath that there isn't something unsavory happening with the guilds, and I have no qualms jumping or sinking ship if it comes to that." Which he isn't being extremely open with, in general, but David knows that about him, and Bart is close to David.
