Summary; To shake things up and have some fun, or cause trouble as the case may be, someone is throwing a party...
Log;

Sometime Thursday everyone no matter their age (barring the residences of Setsuna Muduo, the angel Michael, and anyone Hatter has been able to determine as friends of the one called Ikki) in the City will have received a notice inviting them to a party on the outer edge of the City.

The address leads to a modest little place with garden and labyrinth that has been decorated in smoke, fog and glow sticks. There is live music thanks to Curt Wild & Time Bomb, food, drinks of the alcoholic and non varieties, along with some more atypical treats (do be careful which pills you mix with which).

The host of the evening, the Master of Ceremonies so to speak, is a quaint thing harlequin painted for those who've yet to meet nem. Do feel free to mix and mingle, the night is quite young and it is a party after all. Just don't forget the overall theme: it's not a real party until everyone's clothes come off.

Just be care of the maze...there's at least one psychotic vampire on the prowl.

((Pretty much this is a giant open log, feel free to comment either openly or in private closed threads. Also Hatter will be wandering about, if you want nem to tag you please let me know via subject line. Thanks and enjoy!))

[And of course, Solomon, resident Chevalier bespelled to believe he's in truth an incubus, is happily mingling amongst the party-goers. At times, he takes to the dance floor showing that at the very least, he hasn't lost his innate abilities at dance. But there are other times, he can be found lounging in conversation on some couch with a 'hapless' mortal. Or at the bar also hard at 'work' chatting up someone.

There is a moment where he takes out his communicator to pass on what he considers a very important message over the network.]

[Text (so the sounds and sights of the party won't give anything away.)]
Master, your presence is needed. Please come. [And he forwards coordinates to Merlin's direct line.]

[The first thing Merlin thinks when he sees that message is something like what has he done now? And it's with a soft sigh that he sends a reply (I'm on my way.), not bothering to ask what it is because he might as well go and see for himself.

He didn't quite expect this, though. When he approaches Solomon, he looks very bemused.]

Why exactly am I needed?

[AKA "hello".]

[Solomon turns, all smiles. It is a party, after all. He bows deeply, very pleased that Merlin came.]

Master~~

Isn't it obvious?

[Without even looking he reaches his hand out behind him and ushers a couple of very lovely young ladies forward. The brunette gives Merlin a shy smile and twirls a lock of hair around her finger as she says hello.]

See? I've procured 'dates' for us. Aren't they simply ravishing?

[Solomon beams, certain that no mortal man could possibly be unhappy with such delightful creatures.]

Oh.

[See, this is why he hasn't said anything about Charlie and he yet. Because he has no idea what Solomon will do with that piece of info and he's sure he doesn't want to find out. Maybe he can... slip out of it.

Ahem.]

I was worried you'd gotten into some sort of trouble.

[Sigh.]

I told you, I don't... [Oh!] I mean, no offence to you, of course!

[That's directed at the ladies, obviously, as he flails a little at them.]

You're, uhm... lovely, very lovely, it's just... I'm not really... looking. And you know that, Solomon.

[Solomon does his best to ignore his Master's dismissal of his accomplishment. For an incubus, it was no difficult matter to sway a woman into his arms... but there was a bit of sweet talking involved to get the girls to agree to so many things, not only with himself, but with some other unseen unknown date.

His hand reaches up to brush back an errant blonde lock of hair and he does his best to retain his pleasant demeanor, despite the frustration that's been growing inside of him.]

Which is why... [And he shoots his Master a momentary imploring look.] you would hate to disappoint them. They've been so eager to meet you after all the kind things I've had to say.

Very eager... shall I tell you what enticing things they've agreed to do?

Err, I think not. I wouldn't have anything against keeping them company, but...

[He makes a vague gesture with a hand, and shrugs helplessly.]

[Somewhere in all of those moments, Setsuna notices him and grins. Might as well at least say hi, right?]

Hey, Solomon! It's so much better when you're in your own body. Less confusing. Anyway, just thought I'd say hi. Bye now. [And he's already turning to rush off before the "incubus" can turn into a girl, too. That was weird enough when Karl did it!]

[Before he can get too far, Solomon's arm launches out, fingertips alighting gently on the boy's upper arm.]

Oh, I quite agree, but please... don't rush off. It's a party, time to be friendly and socialize, yes?

[Setsuna turns, but his grin might be a little strained.]

I think your idea of socializing might not be the same as mine.

[Something strong in the air. Scent of family. Glancing up from his corner, Karl sighs. Solomon. Of course. Enchanted as he is, it's no wonder he's here tonight.]

[Arms crossed, Karl sidles upto him.]

...Out procuring more 'patrons', brother?

[He pauses at the interruption, taking a moment to wave off the incorrect and overly-familiar address.]

One must go where the food and entertainment is.

[Arms still crossed, Karl leans against a wall beside Solomon. Eyeing him carefully from between a dark fall of hair.]

And are you entertained so far?

[Deplorable - a waste - seeing his clever brother reduced to delusions and spellwork. Merlin needs to fix this. Soon. Without a stable element in the City, part of Karl knows he'll grow steadily crazier.]

[In many ways, he already has.]

[Solomon glances momentarily and smiles, turning his attention back to the bevy of potentials in just this one room alone. Merlin might be starving him, but he was more than capable of providing for himself.]

The evening's still young... but I'm confident that I'll have more than my fill tonight.

[A raised eyebrow.]

Of flesh? Or blood?

[Has Solomon even fed since Merlin's enchantment?]

... flesh is always preferable to blood, of course.

Edited 2012-06-22 03:23 (UTC)

[ A huff. His voice dropped. ]

You're still a Chiropteran, Solomon. Regardless of the silly spell.

Deny blood, and you'll starve.

This again?

[Have a slight look of irritation in return but it only takes a moment before his pleasant exterior is once again restored to it's former equilibrium. The corners of his mouth twist into a small wicked smile.]

Your brother's gone, he's mine now. I think it would be best if you simply accepted it.

[ Siiiiigh. ]

You are hopeless.

Once this spell's over, you'll see how ridiculous your behavior was.
