Happy Mog's Day!

What's Mog's Day? Well, it's not surprising you haven't heard of it, since it isn't an Earth holiday. It's a fall celebration marking the end of the season, before moogles enter their annual hibernation. A simple drawing of a moogle (a white, vaguely koala-like animal with small bat wings) was included in the invitation. On arrival, guests will be asked to don a large red nose, out of respect for Mog. The hosts are exempt from this, given they're the ones throwing the party and all.

Want a tour of the house? The hosts are not familiar with the concept of a housewarming party, but that's essentially what this is, and any of them would probably show you around if you like. They've just moved, but there's no sign of boxes. Rather, the bookshelves and decor seem a little sparse, their belongings having migrated from a smaller space. You may catch glimpses of a large orange cat slinking around behind the furniture. He has not yet adjusted to his new surroundings, and all the strangers aren't helping.

A catered dinner is laid out on the dining room table. (They can cook, they just... didn't.) There's also a chocolate cake waiting in the kitchen for later. It's for Loki; Sephiroth doesn't really care about cake.

The nearby back door leads out into the yard, and the fire pit. Arranged on a table are some materials one might use to create a simple effigy of someone you particularly hate. There's also a bag of marshmallows, seemingly as an afterthought.

A conquest?

In my own name, I suppose?

[dothelokimotion]

Or in the name of a God.

[unkindled_madness]

So for you, then.

Is there anyone you need conquered?

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki taps his chin thoughtfully. ]

Hmm. I'll have to think about it.

[unkindled_madness]

You know I'll be happy to take care of it for you.

[dothelokimotion]

I expected no less.

[unkindled_madness]

I'm glad you have such faith.

[dothelokimotion]

I have the utmost faith in you.

[unkindled_madness]

And it's mutual, of course.

[dothelokimotion]

I know it is.

[unkindled_madness]

It bears repeating, sometimes.

[dothelokimotion]

It does.

It's helpful.

[unkindled_madness]

...you feel more secure in all this than you used to?

[dothelokimotion]

[ he reaches for sephiroth's hand, twining their fingers before. ]

More than my entire life.

[unkindled_madness]

[His entire life?]

Even more than... back then?

[When he was a child, when he had his parents and Thor and a home.]

[dothelokimotion]

Even then, I was a rather insecure child.

[unkindled_madness]

I...

[He's not quite sure what to say. He knows Loki would choose him now, but to make him more certain that he's loved than his family did in the past...]

...I am glad to help you leave that behind.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he hums. ]

You're not a replacement. You're new and perfect.

And I love you for who you are.

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth leans into him, going in for a kiss.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki smiles as he slides an arm around sephiroth's neck to pull him close for the kiss. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[The wine glasses are set aside for the moment. It's still--always--easier to say what he wants to this way. Let Loki know how much he is valued, how much he is loved.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki certainly welcomes it. and he understands. he meant what he said. he loves sephiroth for who he is. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[He does find his words, eventually.]

...you far surpass any family I could have imagined.

[dothelokimotion]

[ oh. his eyes go wide. ]

Sephiroth . . .

[unkindled_madness]

I mean it.
