"Hey!" Loki taps Mau's shoulder, calmly taking a bite of a candy bar. "So, has anyone ever told you your life is like a sitcom? Because... It is."

The soldier blinked in response, turning to glance at his unexpected visitor. An eyebrow rose at the words and Mau’s head tilted slightly.

"What is that supposed to mean, exactly? And how would you know anything of my life, stranger?”

[argentoutlander]

Brows furrowed and lips pursed, tension running along the line of the soldier’s jaw as he watched the other male with an expression equal parts curious and slightly wary. Now that Mau was focusing, he could feel that there was something…different about the stranger. Perhaps he wasn’t just eccentric.

"I’m afraid I don’t….and what about my love life? It’s not really of much concern to you, is it? And there’s nothing wrong with it. It’s fine."

[synvillan]

"Well, I happen to know that you don't have a very good one that's worth speaking of, so, there's that." He replied easily, finishing the candy bar. He paused to snack, cat eye squinted at Mau thoughtfully.

"Fine? Man, you're either lying right in my face or just daft, 'cause I don't think so!" He sang the last words, hands going to his own hips. "Oh, I guess I should tell you my name, huh? Yeah, that might make things easier. Stranger's an awful mouthful. I'm Loki! And I'm here to inform you that'd you've got such a bad love life it's like watching cringe worthy movies where you wanna yell at the characters."

[argentoutlander]

"Hey!" Loki taps Mau's shoulder, calmly taking a bite of a candy bar. "So, has anyone ever told you your life is like a sitcom? Because... It is."

The soldier blinked in response, turning to glance at his unexpected visitor. An eyebrow rose at the words and Mau’s head tilted slightly.

"What is that supposed to mean, exactly? And how would you know anything of my life, stranger?”

[synvillan]

He snickered, covering his mouth with his empty hand. "Heh, stranger. Anyway! I mean, I feel like I'm watching one of those TV shows. You don't see the similarities?" He asked, tilting his head innocently.

"I dunno, I tend to know things. It's what I do." he waved his hand a little, smiling mischievously. "I don't know everything, don't worry. I just know things. You've got quite the love life, dontcha?"

"There is no way out."

"I never wanted anything from you."

"I like to keep to myself, thank you."

"I was dead when I woke up this morning."

"My heart is hollow now."

"They're coming to get you."

"There's a drumming noise inside my head."

"Tell me what you want me to say."

"Leave all your love behind and run."

"There's no light in your eyes."

"I'l be dead before the day is done."

"It's over. And I'm going under."

"It's peaceful in the deep. No need to pray, no need to speak."

"I found the devil in me looking for heaven."

"A kiss with a fist is better than none."

"You are the space in my bed."

"If you're gone, I will not belong here."

"I was just looking for a breath of life."

"I can stay in the dark if you need me to."

"I don't want your money. I don't want your crown. I've come to burn your kingdom down."

"Whose side are you on?"

"Sooner or later, you love the things you lose."

"Would you leave me if I told you what I've done?"

"Never let me go."

"All your love will be exorcised."

"I can hear your heart beat."

"What has been done can not be undone."

"You left me in the dark. What was I supposed to do?"

"I'm damned if I do, and I'm damned if I don't."

"You'll carry it with you if you want to survive.'

"A thousand armies couldn't keep me out."

"The room was so quiet..."

"Things go wrong no matter what I do!"

"You were a falling star, and I caught you."

"You're my head, you're my heart."

"Though the pressure's hard to take, it's the only way I can escape."

"It's hard to dance with the devil on your back."

"You don't have to be afraid anymore."

"They're in my head. They won't shut up."

"I never knew daylight could be so violent."

"What's the point in living?"

"They were there when I woke up this morning."

"I know I can count on you."

"Sometimes I just feel like saying I don't care."

"I'm always in this twilight in the shadow of your heart."

"I started to hear it again.."

"I can't leave the past behind."

"You've got the love I need."

"The dog days are over."

"You can't choose what fades away and what stays."

"Life is just too much."

"I was looking to get a dream of life again."

"I'm not giving up. I'm just giving in."

    Matt was leaning against a wall and he’d all but forgotten he was still wearing the yellow-tinted gaming goggles that he always brought with him. A cigarette dangled from his lips—multipurpose, of course; partially to give him an excuse for loitering around and also just because he wanted to. With a sort of slowness that was supposed to be degrading, he reached up to pluck the cigarette from his mouth so he could speak more easily. 

    “——What do you want, kid? I’m busy.” And he was—tailing people was hard enough when they moved around, but when they stuck around in one place it became boring and risky. If worst comes to worse, Matt could probably just head home and track their cell phone or something, but that’s all he’d been doing for, like, two days, and he was entirely sick of it.

    He could have pushed the goggles up or even taken them off, but the man figured the jig was up already. Through the yellowish glass, Matt glances across the street again, reaching into the back pocket of his jeans for the console he kept there.

[synvillan]

"Busy." He repeated, putting his hands on his hips as he apparently inspected the other, head tipping sideways as his gaze scanned the other multiple times. "You don't look very busy." He continued, not in the slightest deterred by Matt's words, imploring eyes locked on him with the clear intent of staying put.

"I don't really want anything, if I'm going to be honest. I'm just curious. Plus, supposedly you're interesting and I'm sort of drawn to that." He yawned, eyeing the hand that moved towards the other man's pocket. "Though, interesting could mean many things. I usually end up around the kind of terrible but still interesting interesting." He spoke as if his words were to make clear sense, rocking a bit on his heels. 

"Though, since you asked, I'll ask you something. What exactly has you so busy?" He pressed, fluttering his lashes in such an innocent way, yet his grin contradicted it with a sort of mischievous hint to it. "You gotta answer or else I'll NEVER go away."

[dysfunctionalpuppeteer]

Her eyes scanned the area for these said Ravens, making sure to continue listening to the dark haired man. “Mm… so what is it exactly that they want you to learn from m— ” She paused, looking at him just as he asked the question. Valya looked around to her puppet, narrowing her eyes in a scolding matter before looking back at the raven haired mage. 

"Uh… you could say that… he’s sorta my ‘secret’ weapon.. power… whatever you wanna call it. He shows up when he feels ‘we’re’ threatened…" She looked up to try and find the ravens. "Probably the presence of your teachers."

[synvillan]

"Dunno." He replied to the unfinished question, putting his hands to his cheeks. "Wow! That's more than Teach would do for me. They just sit and chuckle if I get into any trouble." He sighed ruefully, before perking again. 

"Oh, it's not teachers. It's just one. They could make it seem like there was more of them, though. They're harmless. I mean, if they wanted to do something downright awful, they just would." He made a sort of whistle, and the bird came down to perch on him, intelligent eyes inspecting Valya and the puppet. "I'd say their name, but they don't like it to be known until you do all sorts of puzzling things to earn it. Too much of a hassle... But anyway! That's neat. Kind of creepy, but I like that."

[dysfunctionalpuppeteer]

They. There was more than one teacher? Rather more than one person who had this interesting power. She quirked a brow, stroking her chin slightly as she listened to him, nodding her head. “People of interest?” Do these ‘beings’ of magic know of her? That sure as hell ain’t creepy or worrying or anything. And as if he could hear her thoughts, she felt the presence of her puppet show up behind her. 

Great.

"Ah….So… I assume then they found me interesting somehow…" She eyed where the Raven might have flown off to. Completely disregarding the fact that her puppet essentially showed up out of nowhere.

[synvillan]

"Yeah! They're not very specific. Like I said, riddle this, riddle that." He shrugged, puffing out his cheeks. "Given, they just follow me around as a raven most of the time. Not even a single word." He tsked, but his eyes darted up as if expecting another swoop. His eyes just as quickly glanced to the presence behind her, head tilting to the side in a curious motion, halting before he turned himself sideways.

"Probably. I don't really know. I get put around allll sorts of people, and it's getting to the point where I'm not sure if it's to bother them or for some actual reason. Do you have a friend?" He broke off suddenly from the topic, gaze unblinking,

[synvillan]

"Someone should buy me icecream. Or something sweet. I need it. For science."

His head tilts back automatically, cat like eyes staring at Ezreal hard, lips slightly pursed. It was more so out of surprise than any sort of anger, but that doesn’t stop his eyebrows from furrowing. 

"What are you doing?" He asked, not yet moving to straighten himself up. "The least you could do is ask first. Being famous doesn’t give you any privilege to not ask.”

[essence-flux-primed]

Though he does let up, the explorer lets his fingers linger for a few moments beforehand as something like a final act of defiance. Sure he’s used to being told ‘no,’ but does that mean he listens? Most of the time, not at all.

"I’m just admiring." Is his response, like that makes his unwanted touching permissible. "It’s long," Ezreal continues, "And yet not… too messy. What do you do to it?”

[synvillan]

"Because I'm worth it." He replied, cat eyes entirely serious as he rounded on the blond, arms crossing. "A.K.A, I take care of it. Gotta look good while causing trouble, right?" He shrugged innocently, tossing his hair as a brow quirked. 

"Plus it's dramatic and I live for that. Why, everyone else you've seen with long hair look like a mess?" He asked, narrowing one eye in a quizzical look. "If so they then need a good hit in the face and pronto. If you're gonna have long hair, at least arse yourself to take care of it. Also, if that's the case, then I guess you have permission to touch my hair. You must be deprived."

[dysfunctionalpuppeteer]

The puppeteer quirked a brow, tilting her head in curiosity. Really, she had a odd habit of just.. meeting the oddest individuals whether in or out of Noxus. Though it wasn’t always too bad. “….. Wait…  your teacher? so does does your teacher control the random poppin’ around or?”

[synvillan]

He bobbed his head in confirmation, giving a lopsided grin. "They take me to people who might be of interest in terms of learning. They know everything- but instead of just TELLING me, they've gotta be a cryptic ass and riddle me this and poof me there." A harsh caw and the swoop of a raven directly at Loki's head made him duck, his head quite literally disappearing for a few moments. His head reappeared, and he looked a bit sheepish.

"I'm pretty used to it. Supposedly I'll be able to do it, but I'm not very good."

[synvillan]

Rattles a purple flamed lantern. 

Aggressively.

[synvillan]

"Nice goggles."

Loki makes no effort to make his presence apparent before he speaks, letting only his voice denote his sudden appearance. His purple catlike eyes make quick work to look over the other's figure, pursing his lips a bit. The other's very person made him think of a video gamer, though it wasn't quite a guess, he decided, crossing his arms.

He was entirely out of place, yet that didn't seem to bother Loki one bit. Instead, he grinned broadly, tilting his head. "Don't people like you usually avoid the public at all costs?" He queried, not pausing to consider the perhaps rudeness of his statement. "If this is an attempt to be social though, maybe you get an A for effort." jxxvas

Malzahar jumps, managing not to drop the Braum-shaped doll he was holding. He turns swiftly to face Loki, backing up as he does. The man’s new costume intimidated the already-shy prophet. Try as he might, the prophet can’t suppress a shiver of fear.

He manages a wave at the other, trying not to shake. “H-Hi, Loki…I-I have been-alright-” which, from his tone, is a lie. “Uhm-I-have not seen much Harrowing stuff-I mean, events-“

[synvillan]

Loki stared at Malzahar with great interest, sidling up and blinking a few times. "Huhu, a little scared, huh?" He teased, a toothy smile growing on his face. How absolutely priceless! He stepped closer, leaning up and peering at him.

"You don't strike me as one to be so stuttery, Malzahar!" He continued, lifting a hand as if ready to prod him. "Something happen?--- Oooh, you should see them though! It's so fun! And you can dress up and trick people!" Or, really, it was mostly Loki's mindset, but nonetheless it was true to him. "Though, if you're so scared, maybe it might not work out." He snickered.

[synvillan]

{ ok so hey like for a starter because I need Loki up and running again omg. He’ll be in his costume. Probably. }
