More Crossover Continuity ⇒ Double Date, Double Trouble

[recluserose]

[After a wild weekend in the town of Blackgale, specifically at Amelia's house, the witch spent most of her time smoothing things over with the questioning locals, grading all of her student's neglected essays, and trying to apologize to the talking cat commune for not warning them about the huge human gathering. It's tough being the only witch in town sometimes. She needed to relax. What does she plan?

Why, another trip to Las Vegas, Nevada of course! Well, it wasn't so much to enjoy the tempting offers of Sin City, but to visit the person Amelia was now comfortable calling a friend, the owner of the... interesting club, Griffonx. Madigan of course!

A quick magic teleportation and search for the hidden club later, Amelia opens up the door to the establishment, dressed casually.

It should be a normal day with nothing unexpected happening whatsoever...]

Hello?

Better than stomping about like an over-sized Jotun with no sense of subtlety, Thor. [Ball in your court - he dares you to bring up the subject of Jotuns and what that might entail while in mixed company.

But that bitter knowing grin is soon wiped away when he turns his attention to Madigan. Despite the warning, he doesn't sound too bothered.] I would not think of causing trouble; that is not why I am here. I simply wish to spend more time with a friend of mine.

[Isn't that right Amelia]

[recluserose]

[Oi B| She crosses her arms letting out a sigh]

You could have asked before I went all the way out to Vegas to visit Madigan instead... And now you're both in each other's faces again.

Don't worry Madigan, they won't start anything. Isn't that right both of you?

[Dangerous edge to her voice there boys]

[mjolnir_time]

[Loki gets a glare, but then Thor smiles for Amelia and Madigan.]

You need not worry on my account. I would never be so poor a guest as to cause trouble for my hostess.

[Unlike some people, who shall remain nameless but like to spike the punch at parties.]

[griffonix]

Good. Thank you.

As for you-- [ her gaze snaps to Loki again ] --I get the feeling you'd follow us even if we told you to get lost, so you might as well come long. Just dial down the creepy stalker thing you have going on, okay?

[allfatherissues]

As I said, I'm not here to start any quarrels. [...Maybe. Yet. Depends on how nice he feels like being to his brother. To Madigan:] Very well - no magic for the sake of being unseen by others. A simple enough task.

[recluserose]

Vegas is a popular city. It's still midday, but come evening when the crowds increase, you two really have to tone down... Anything you usually do when I'm not around to see it.

I suppose Madigan will be leading us around then?

[mjolnir_time]

[Thor isn't exactly pleased about Loki tagging along, but he isn't going to say anything about it.]

What say you, Madigan? Will you be our guide?

[griffonix]

[ LOKI THAT WASN'T WHAT SHE MEANT BY BEING CREEPY. This whole situation has "disaster" written all over it, but she manages a smile. ]

It would be my pleasure.

[allfatherissues]

[WELL, IF YOU THINK LOKI IS GOING TO CHANGE MUCH OF HIS CHARACTER FOR THIS LITTLE SIGHT-SEEING TRIP, THEN YOU'D BE VERY DISAPPOINTED.

In any case, he simply approaches closer with something of a casual smile.] And where shall we head first? What spectacular sights does Midgard have to offer us?

[recluserose]

[Why are you her friend again]

There's plenty to do if you want to burn your money at least... Maybe the gardens at the Bellagio...? It's up to you though Madigan.

[mjolnir_time]

[Yes, definitely will be keeping an eye on Loki.]

... I have no money, but why would anyone wish to burn it?

[Princes of Asgard don't carry wallets.]

[griffonix]

To burn money means to spend it wastefully, Thor.

And the gardens would be a good place to start, but I have a strong sense of irony, so we definitely have to hit up Caesar's Palace at some point.

[allfatherissues]

[Loki somehow manages to not say something demeaning to Thor, concerning his obliviousness. Good job, Loki!]

[But he does laugh a little at Madigan's suggestion.] A palace? It will have to be quite the sight to impress us.

[Since, you know. Grew up in a palace themselves, here.]

[recluserose]

[Raises an eyebrow at Madigan. Ha HA.]

Interesting choice. It's been a while since I've been inside the palace anyways.

... Also, I do want to check the Bellagio for a fairly good reason and not just for the sights.

[mjolnir_time]

It sounds interesting. Does this king allow anyone to visit his palace?

Do you have business at this Bellagio place, Amelia?

[griffonix]

Ah, already the palace is a good idea. [ she chuckles- she just likes messing with you boys, don't mind her ]

Yes, Amelia. Do tell.

[allfatherissues]

[The idea of visiting a mortal palace intrigues Loki, and he won't argue against going.]

[However, he looks interested at what Amelia has to say, as well, and he waits for her to answer.]

[recluserose]

There's something living in the fountains. A colleague of mine who lives around this area asked me to check it out while she was out of town and 'fix' things if necessary.

[She also wants cake from the pastry shop inside, but she's not going to say that aloud :V]

Other then that, we're good to go.

[mjolnir_time]

Then that's settled. We will visit the palace and the fountains.

[Hope you're ready to go now, because he is.]

[griffonix]

I think fountains first, palace second. Business before pleasure.

Just give me a second to get things wrapped up here.

[ she comes out from behind the bar and heads up the stairs to the back, and eventually disappears from sight. She won't be long though. ]

[allfatherissues]

[Loki will just lean on the counter of the bar while they wait for her. He aims a question at Amelia, with a raised brow.]

'Something' in the fountains?

[recluserose]

[She casually brushes her hair behind her ear and says]

Sirens.

[mjolnir_time]

Perhaps we'll be able to assist you again.

[He's speaking to Amelia, but he keeps glancing at Loki.]

[griffonix]

[ Madigan comes bounding back down the stairs with her purse slung over one shoulder ]

You want to take a couple of boys to fight sirens?

[allfatherissues]

[Loki is aware of those glances, Thor, but he ignores them quite expertly.

He glances at Madigan coming down the stairs.]

You underestimate us. [And by 'us' he just means himself.]
