metalogs | ( open ) I'll wear your colors til you come back home to me

Who: Everyone!
What: Masquerade Ball
When: 17th of October
Where: The Opherium
Content Warnings: N/A

[ Much like Loki's last party-venture, this is set up very much in the same vein. a large ballroom for dancing needs. Tables and waiters passing around hors d'oeuvres and drinks. At the entrance of the ball room, there’s a fancy mask waiting for you if you don’t have one already. There’s a strict dress code for the event this time and Loki expects everyone to dress accordingly.

The masks also have a spell attached to them. They’ll afford you complete privacy. No one will recognize you under the mask. Unless, of course, you take it off and let them know. Perfect for the party guest who may want to indulge without causing a fuss. Hit up a partner and see where the evening takes you.

This event wouldn’t be complete without candy, of course. There are candies arranged on the tables in all types and colors. In front of them is a small description regarding each kind of candy. Be sure to read them carefully, as Loki has added a little . . . extra to the sweets, to give them a little . . . zing. ]

🍫 White Chocolate: For those who needs a little honesty ( truth effect )

🍷 Alcoholic Chocolate: For those who need to loosen up ( slight aphro effects, please mark headers accordingly and communicate! )

🍬 Sour Candy: For those who are tired of being nice ( shorter tempers )

🍓 Fruit Candy: For those who need to open up ( increased generosity )

If you have a question or comment to direct at the host, Loki is by the entrance dressed in red and gold with a mask to boot. he’s instantly recognizable, compared to the masked attendees. ]

Welcome.

Obviously. You can't use my own magic to trick me.

That's kind of stink, setting this all up and not being able to participate properly.

Oh, it still works. It simply would not work on me.

What if I put on another disguise?

[He picks up some of the cards used to label the candy and wields them like scissors.]

I could be Miek now.

That's . . . not how it works.

Who knows how magic works?

[Ignore the fact that magic is Loki's thing.]

I do? It's my magic.

You do? I thought it was one of those things where the understanding isn't needed, like how I'm made of rocks, but I don't know how rocks work.

Rocks don't — Magic is different.

Thor says magic is just science we don't understand yet.

Thor has the magical understanding of a rock.

Thor definitely knows more than me though.

I wouldn't put that much stock in it if I were you.

But he knows so many things!

You really need to get out more. Thor may know a great deal, certainly more than most humans, but he was lucky to pass his classes at all.

[At some point he's going to ask Thor if he's stupid by Asgardian standards.]

I should, aye? I couldn't before because I was a gladiator and then Thor was all sad and he needed a friend, but now I'm a streamer and Thor's happy again.

[He puts a hand on Loki's shoulder.]

Has anyone told you, you have really great ideas?

All the time.

[ it's hard to tamp down on the envy. that thor was sad for a while and then simply got over it. got over loki. ]

[Korg can't follow the line of Loki's thoughts, his own taking a meandering path to begin with.]

You should hear it more often even if you do hear it all the time. It's always nice hearing a genuine compliment.

[ loki sighs, familiar with korg by now. ]

It's fine. I don't need it.

As your friend I will insist anyway.

You're Thor's friend.

[...]

I thought we bonded when I offered you a ride?

[ his expression softens minutely. ]

We did. And I am . . . grateful.

[Everything's good now.]

See? Friends.

[ loki sighs. fine, whatever. ]

All right.
