Creepy old abandoned mansion on Phoenix Way, Wednesday evening

[locointhecoco]

Pinkie had spent all day -- barring her class, of course -- getting the mansion ready for the Halloween party. If anyone had any protests over her rather liberal use of black and orange balloons, streamers, party hats, table cloths, and confetti, she wasn't hearing them over the noise of her party cannon.

Kitty made a fantastic party helper, at least, helping rearrange what little furniture was already set up (so that's what hands were for!) and doing the many things that even the party cannon couldn't do (such as keep Pinkie from eating all the snacks before the party could even start).

Then, at last, it was time to get into costume. Pinkie had promised to show Kitty just what Nightmare Night was all about, and her Nightmare Moon costume delivered in spades, if she did say so herself. Sure, the glowing contact lenses were uncomfortable, and the black make-up was going to be rather difficult to get out of her coat later, but she was rocking those plastic fangs.

"Seriously?" Victor asked, and laughed a little. "Um ... knowing you like it will probably do it for me, as long as I don't have to go to class looking like I stepped out of some '80s pirate movie."

He brought his nose closer to sniff her hair. Mmmm, Olive hair....

"I have better taste than that," Olive assured him, inclining her head a little. "What can I say? I'm a weird girl, but I'm still a girl. I like a guy in a dashing mask and sword combo, even with an irregular jawline." Pause. "No facial hair, though. We don't need that to come up again, even if it works for some be-masked antiheroes."

"I appreciate the compliment in there, and I get that you didn't like the mustache," Victor began defensively, ignoring the fact nobody liked the mustache, "but -- wait, what's wrong with my jawline?"

His fingertips went up to pat it, as if it might have moved since he last looked in the mirror.

Oops. "Nothing. Stiles and I were maybe talking about Scott's redeeming qualities, 'cause I said he was dumb and then said he makes up for it by having a cute face -- " See, that was nice "-- and then Stiles tried to ruin it for me. It's okay, I tried to ruin his non-girlfriend back home in return."

She had failed. Stiles could not be swayed on Lydia.

"Also, no one liked the mustache. Tony asked that I use feminine wiles to keep you from regrowing it. I don't even have feminine wiles and I told him I would."

"Yeah, I wouldn't trust Stiles' opinion about my face," Victor decided. Nothing against Stiles, he just wasn't trying to date him. "And ... okay, fine, I surrender on the mustache, but as the one dating you I will disagree that you don't have wiles."

"You're just susceptible to really weak wiles," Olive decided. "I didn't even have to do anything to convince you! I was prepared to be...wily."

She didn't know what it would involve, exactly. But she'd been prepared!

Victor laughed. "What, sneak into my room at night and shave me if I tried to grow facial hair again? Or is that more psycho than wily?"

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[dirtiest-skank.livejournal.com]

"Totally more psycho," Olive replied. And if she was sneaking into his room, it would not be to shave his face, thank you. "I think being all wily in this case means like, batting my lashes and flashing a little leg or something. I don't know. I told you, I'm wile-free."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[ultron_junior]

"Wait, you flash your leg and I'm supposed to want to shave more? Wiles are weird," Victor decided. "No insult to your legs. They're nice legs and everything."

"You're supposed to do whatever I say, because I'm just that irresistible," Olive replied, shaking her head. "I'm telling you, I'm bad at wiles. Or at least, I am now. There were a couple guys I once totally sent into a tizzy because I sucked on a spoon in front of them, but a) I'm on the straight and narrow and un-corseted these days, and b) I think you're too smart for that, anyway."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[ultron_junior]

"Right," Victor said, if not completely convincingly. "You could suck on 500 spoons and I'd remain stoic. You'll have to convince me in other ways."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

"How about by saying you look way cuter without the awful mustache?" Olive tried, delicately. "Oooor how about telling you I like kissing you without getting tickled?" She leaned over to demonstrate.

Okay, so she some had wiles, maybe.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[ultron_junior]

"See, but you never kissed me while I had the mustache," Victor said, once they pulled apart. "So technically I should grow it back and then kiss you, as an experiment."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[dirtiest-skank.livejournal.com]

"That," Olive said, shaking her head, "is terrible logic. Do you have to kiss me with a mustache to know that it'd be unattractive and horrible? Some things are instinct."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[ultron_junior]

"It is excellent logic," Victor told her. "And anyhow, I don't know. I can say I'm not really attracted to women with mustaches, but you might still be good to kiss with one."

"This is where you choose to go all empirical evidence on me?" Olive asked, tsking. "Tony's going to be so disappointed in my wiles if you decide to grow a mustache to re-experiment."
