Let's play a game

❝uh ... dear god - this lady , she’s MELODRAMATIC. maybe we should let her have a moment. she’s needs UTMOST recognition that she too , is a child of that monkey thanos. ❞ there’s a lot of humor pouring out of his words ! but no one should assume his inability to be grimly serious , with what he’s all about. some get so wrapped up in his game that they even forget he’s CYNICAL. he’s THE GRANDMASTER.  proxima midnight. a goddamn tragedy! he only feels slightly jealous for the fact she wants to steal the show. MORE SO the reality stone, but she can wallow in her own annoyance because he won’t let her have it.  ❝ ONLY ROYALTY gets the divine jewel , king. queen. OH SORRY , both spots are taken !  ❞

uh ... oh ! why are we pissing her off ?! 

THE GRANDMASTER turns to a stranger ! oh , and how he must cling this very moment. he’s not nervous , no. maybe.   ❝ HEY UH LUCKY NUMBER GUEST , this isn’t my kind of party and ... no time for exceptionally long intros but i’ll protect your pretty face if you’ve got mine.   ❞

   “  Want some ? “  she offers, though her voice runs a bit muffled on account of the few grapes she had in her mouth.  She uncurls her leg from beneath her and stretches a bit from the surface she’d been perched on.  Try and be more sociable ——- so . . here she was. tucking a strand of white behind a pointed ear, she pops another grape in her mouth.  “  Who’d of thought that we’d be having this .. thing , you know on the account we’re all stuck in a stone and all —- plus the weather change .. “  she offers, cracking a somewhat nice smile of her own. 

Granted the food wasn’t really helping; it just felt like a voiding pit in her stomach, but the act of consuming something did help some.  “ They have fish, too —– not sure about the booze, but, I might be up to grab some in a bit. “

A crooked grin takes on a further appearance. Uh oh !  But oh yes! He wants to see this lovely woman he’s assumed to be a queen ... because oh , oh she is.  His hand passes slowly through her white locks, eyes glued to her entire being like he’s in a dream. In a trance ! Oh no... what is this???  ❝ DARLING... darling oh , I think you know me baby. ❞ The grandmaster might be hovering, but who’s call was it???? There is, a caress. Something that falls short just in case. Oh, just in case. 

He didn’t care about anyone there really. No. Not at all. But she... she is.  ❝ I want a drink. With you. ❞ But he could sound, as if that meant entirely something else; the way his gaze surely devoured her very presence.

“There’s a party?”

Tony could use a party. His insane partying days are long over, but a bit of a celebration can’t hurt. Thing is, he’d not entirely sure what this guy is high on. Some kind of fruit, maybe? 

Well, at least he seems happy. 

“So … what kind of party are we talking about? And when you say ‘best of both worlds’, just… what sort of best do you mean, exactly?”

       ❝ Maybe a game, a fun DEAL ❞

 He croons with a tilt of his head.  More analyzed intent. Switch up the mood! Even if he couldn’t completely play out his very own game war. It’s just not attractively BIG enough. Well, if the Grandmaster wanted to.  A smirk lands on the man. 

      ❝ Whatever you ... uh want it to be, I mean.  Both questions answered for the man of the hour. ❞

thor-o-thunder:

Oh no…

No, no, no, no, no, no… He knew that voice, he turned around, anger clear in his eyes, well at least his eye, he wasn’t sure if his new brown eye conveyed his emotions just like the other.

He called upon on Stormbreaker. “YOU!” He said, arm still reaching out and calling on Stormbreaker. “You’re here… You.. dared to enslave me, Thor, Son of Odin, King of Asgard… What are you without your shocking devices and all your guards?”

❝ ME!   ❞ He chimes back with a wide, ostentatious grin!  Uh oh. He remembers so quickly but the impression left was not the one he wanted. Grandmaster keeps dancing, fruits raining, yada yada. 

He tilts his head and the grin is still very much there! Oh yes, the one with the green guy!  ❝ No hard feelings you’re still alive, did you die?? You’re still king of ASSBURG,  ❞ He places a finger to his chin in thought, not really giving much thought!  ❝ To answer that uh, I’m much sexier and I’ve got the fruit.   ❞

femmeciel:

      fingers run themselves over every forgotten curve  in her face when he shouts. She’ll peek between her fingers .. and there he was.  Shouting about a party, and uh .. fruit ? Best of both worlds ? “ That’s my line, big man. “  she calls out to him, in almost the same volume. 

    Rising up from where she was seated, she closes the distance between them. “ Party, “  she finds herself mouthing the words.  “  Dancing fruit, huh … well  “  she’s seen worse out there, crazier things ! And the temperament she’s noticed about this one, oh, that’s right. 

    She’ll bite, why not ?  “  Lead the way. “ 

     Oh he likes her. Oh, he kind of remembers her!   ❝ What ARE you going to do about it?  ❞ It rolls off his tongue in his casual playful manner, but the truth is in what others perceive correctly about him- because the grandmaster’s no wildcard! Except that he REALLY IS. 

He becomes utterly cynical just as quickly as the humor fades. Painted eyes  study an intricate form, and one might say this was a DEAL! You’ll notice in the way he stops dancing. How the fruit isn’t as interesting no matter its foreign nature. Oh no! His deals one up the devil himself. 

  His hand is extended. The LACK of transaction or form of deal has left him STARVING.         ❝ I’ll show you DIVINE INSPIRATION.  ❞ His voice is low. But oh, they need to be careful! Once the grandmaster LIKES something, good luck trying to get away.

This was the same dude that Peter had watched for pure entertainment back when this place was Sand Land. And once again, he was fulfilling his need to watch this guy be entertaining as all hell. Only this time, he was standing in plain sight and watching.

“Me?” He glanced around and pointed at himself while raising a brow. Giving it some thought, he shrugged and decided that wasn’t a terrible thing. “I mean if you’re insinuating something sexual, I have to tell you, I got a girlfriend and she ain’t likely to share but-” He glanced around, “I can’t say no to dancing!”

And just like that, Quill started to dance to the invisible song that the Grandmaster seemed to be grooving to.

The Grandmaster is no picky man!  Not with women, nor men; otherworldly beings?? Of course not! He thinks this man in particular is familiar, but only by the notion of a glimpse. Something passed in the corner of his eye, or even seen miles away!

 So he just keeps that rhythm!   ❝ Well I do LOVE a passionate woman! Man, being- alien. ❞ He adds on with a signature smirk, much much in thought! 

❝ Ever been to one of my amazing world games?? Tournament. Gladiator-esque.   ❞ To the death! An invasive thought tackles his mind then.

“No, no, no, no, – How are you here?” 

“Nevermind, don’t answer that.” He tried his best to disappear but he couldn’t. Instead Loki found himself holding a coconut and sighed. Out of all people, he would run into the Grandmaster. But suddenly his expression changed. What if the Grandmaster could be the key to getting out of here? 

A smile appeared on his face. “It’s been awhile.” 

    ❝ Oh yes, yes, yes.   ❞ The grandmaster will sorta throw it back at him, a wave of his finger at the same time for all the humor that might reveal in this. He takes some steps forward all while balancing several fruits in his hand. 

   There was a lot of acknowledgement on his part. Oh, come on! Loki’s gonna be a friend. There’s a lot of watching, a lot of hm. Entertainment.  Grandmaster sets his eyes on the other man, almost like he’s remembering.   ❝ It has been a while and you know, why not catch up? All the craziness happening here and we see each other again? Amazing! Though your dear brother still can’t get over the uh, standard greeting on my planet.    ❞ He smirks.

    ❝  Did you want to see me? This feels so very planned.  ❞ 

[grndrule-blog]

   HE’S DANCING!   and oh? some fruit?  no one’s starving and it’s on him ! the grandmaster isn’t even sure where he stands with the others he’s found, and you know... it’s not cool. HE’S USED TO BEING SURROUNDED, praised. worshipped. 

   ❝ you’re invited to my party!  ❞ he shouts to the one he immediately notices.  and we’re gonna play some games, he thinks.  powers that transform to dancing, fruit, fruit and more fruit?  ❝ i’ll give you the BEST of both worlds, JUST. FOR. YOU.  ❞

   thats JUST how you do it. never expect anything less!

“I can’t imagine what you must be going through .. to have lost all of your brain cells because why else would you try to steal from me?” She tilted her head, amused at the other before throwing a knife at them. “This is the part where you run.” 

[grndrule-blog]

      ❝ Well I love this game ! ❞ The grandmaster finds the woman all too interesting to simply be on his merry little way.  Oh but that knife she’s throwing, she’s going to be disappointed. It’s gonna, stick him !  ❝ Uh, you can’t kill the grandmaster but thank you !  ❞ He’s clapping as if there was an audience !  ❝ Will you be here all week? Gotta uh, let the people know.  ❞

[grndrule-blog]

                  ❝ Darling this is, a tragedy right before my very eyes. ❞ The grandmaster will look so graciously at this beautiful creature, oh no. Wait, why? Why, why... why.  ❝ I just had an epiphany, and you are the queen of Sakaar. And uh, before you shoot the messenger...  ❞ He taps the side of his temple with a wink, a smirk that seems everlasting. ❝It’s oh so true.  ❞

  to give someone the most extraordinary gifts , would confuse their role in existence. make them believe they are truly meant to rule all worlds. they are known as the false gods , as proclaimed by the most unruly. the most sinister. and this is where charles begins to understand , this sort of pocket of a dimension was not one several luxuries - but one that reveals itself as purgatory. 

   it is the screams , the agonizing pain , the relentless transference being forced to be acknowledged. to be heard, unforgotten. though charles has never been so weak - for something his mind cannot comprehend. 

        “Stop,”  his hand is raised toward the one who approaches, perhaps a quiet warning. 

but it’s his mind. there a form of insanity - one so painful , the kind thats constant. unforgiving. to be read in-between lines as if this was something he had coming. it was - 

     “Whatever it is you’re feeling you must - “  it’s an intense pressure in all parts of the mind, one so horrible he’s begun adding more pressure to his temples; and with no luck it becomes worse.  “Stop, just god- please ,  stop.”

                  He feels the power within this one ! And that alone is enough to attract the grandmaster to almost an obsession. The grandmaster raises both hands in defense, pointing at himself mockingly as if he wasn’t really aware the great mind wasn’t talking about him.  Within his own field of mental ability, he can’t help but feel like it’s time to enlighten his path. Tell the guy he can actually breathe !  However, he follows no rules. He continues toward the telepath one SLOW step at a time. 

               ❝Well doc, I feel like love is just outta the question. I mean, I love so many people. I’m always giving. Emphasize giving, by the way. NEVER on the receiving end.  ❞ 

  A laugh here, a laugh there. No, it’s not fun when the other person is still in pain ! Although, don’t get him wrong. Pain happens to be one of the many leading pleasures of life. 

      ❝ You sir are talking to yourself !  Before you’re starstruck, I’m technically a GOD, but uh, they call me grandmaster. Gonna just jump right in by the way ! Your problem I think, is that you’re letting everyone in. ❞

After the disaster that was Tony Stark had happened to his makeshift hut of sand, Stephen had decided to rebuild and to make it far sturdier than it had been. I.E. giving it a rock base and using the clay that the dimension had to reinforce his walls and ultimately making the inside cooler.

And Tony Stark proof.

Not that he was trying to keep the billionaire out – but he also didn’t want him to destroy his permanent temporary home again.

Still, his magic had sustained for the most part, only losing access to opening portals, and the time magic, but otherwise – he could still conjure, astral project, and build. So when he was done withe finishing touches, Stephen smiled to himself, only stopping when he felt the presence of someone behind him.

Without turning around, he rose a brow and began to speak. “Well, it’s no Sanctum, but it’ll do. Would you like me to make you one too?”

He’s been dancing around this little place, and really he finds it not so glamorous as he’s used to. Just like a tiny little snow globe with a bunch of desperate, suffering souls to paint the picture; minus himself of course ! HEY NOW , he just might be starting to regret this whole shebang. 

   Oh look, his first encounter ! 

The grandmaster approaches such a being, with narrowed eyes and a cheshire grin. He carries his staff oh so carefully switching between his left and right hand, a light toss here and there. But he’s still very interested. And even more, that this figure seemed to spot him right away ! His hand meets a place on his heart , sympathy , sympathy ! 

        ❝Wait a minute, wait a minute.  you wanna┈ build some sandcastles? What about a stadium. What about a fortress with the conditions of Sakaaran customs? I had a... pretty sweet thing going on with modifications on my uh,  aircraft back home.   ❞
