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?

Money is gained, money is lost, money ends up in places you wouldn't expect. That's Vegas for you; they do call it Sin City for a reason. It's not just for gambling though.

[mjolnir_time]

[Thor just shrugs.]

I have no need of money. I will be guided by your preferences.

[griffonix]

Ah, so it looks like us ladies are paying for this date, aren't we Amelia?

[allfatherissues]

[A brow raise.]

An issue that could be easily remedied, if that proves to be a problem.

[recluserose]

[She has no issues with paying thank you endless teacher fund, but at the word 'date' she shoots Madigan a look, but decides not to press the matter]

It's not a problem.

How does Cirque du Soleil sound for later?

[mjolnir_time]

[The term "date" goes right over his head, as does "Cirque du Soleil".]

I do not know what that is.

[griffonix]

[ She just flashes Amelia a mischievous grin. Come on, it's totally a date ]

Cirque du Soleil? It's a circus, of sorts, with dancers and acrobats and the like. Very stylized, very unique. It's quite impressive.

[allfatherissues]

[So they might get to see mortals run around and flip about while dressed in funny costumes? How droll, he can't help but think to himself. As for the word "date", Loki doesn't seem to mind it too terribly.]

We will have to see exactly how impressive it might be.

[recluserose]

[But Maaaaaaads XO]

The name literally means 'Circus of the Sun.' It's been running in Vegas for a while.

We could do that or go to the Venetian later for Phantom of the Opera. I always enjoy that.

[mjolnir_time]

[It all sounds interesting, but one word catches his attention.]

A ghost?

[griffonix]

Ghost story, more like.

Please tell me you're at least familiar with the concept of theater.

[allfatherissues]

[There's the sound of a short laugh, emanating from Loki.]

I hope you don't think us so primitive and uncultured? I do not think even I could handle the irony.

[recluserose]

We'll take that as a yes then.

[mjolnir_time]

[Thor laughs a little too.]

Yes, we have theaters.

[griffonix]

You can't fault me for asking- I don't know the first thing about Asgardian culture.

Anyway, yes. The Phantom of the Opera is a play.

[allfatherissues]

And what is such a play about? [Loki has gone a record time without insulting his brother, time for a combo breaker.] If it is classic, literary, or otherwise sophisticated, I can assure you that my dear brother will undoubtedly fall asleep during the first act.

[recluserose]

[And a look is shot at Loki that says 'DON'T START ANOTHER THING OR ELSE']

It's a combination of all three really, but it's mainly a musical narrative about... obsessive love you can say.

[mjolnir_time]

[Thor just looks amused by your jibes, Loki. Possibly he's missed them.]

And no matter the subject, I'm sure my brother will provide commentary during the performance. Sometimes in a loud voice.

[griffonix]

Hopefully not so loud as to get us kicked out of the theater.

[allfatherissues]

[Dryly] Only if the material warrants such commentary. Otherwise I have little reason to utter a single word.

[Doubtful this will happen, but still. Not the point.]

[recluserose]

I'm sure you'll have something to say either way.

[Looks like Caesar's Palace is up ahead! :|a]

[mjolnir_time]

[He's taking a look at the buildings.]

... This is the palace you mentioned?

[griffonix]

This is it! Go ahead and make your smartass remark now, Loki. We all know it's coming.

[allfatherissues]

[Loki refrains from rolling his eyes.

But since you asked so nicely, Madigan.]

A magnificent palace, indeed.

[recluserose]

[And going up to the doors to open them and sighing at all of them]

Get along children.
