❛ it's dynamic. ❜ val coos, eyes ablaze with a concoction of pride and unadulterated affection. —a sliver of sentiment that burns out like a falling star the moment vox's assistant crosses through the room. he steps back to admire his handwork, gaze lingering a moment too long on his partner's luminous visage.
❛ it will change to suit the viewer. like mine but curated for your features and objective. ❜ the moth's fingers absentmindedly trace the lapels of the media's crisp suit. ❛ kind of like the one i cast for you when we cross planes. ❜ an amused grin flickers across carefully glossed lips. ❛ but instead of making you more palatable for humans, it just softens your edges, alters the coloring... ❜ he gyrates his wrist fluidly, fingers curling in a vague gesture of wordless implication. ❛ you're still you —just the you that your viewers imagine you as in their deluded little minds. it's barely even an illusion really, just a projection of desire manifested through aural transmission. ❜ one set of shoulders round idly.
val steps back or a moment, cerise eyes narrowing slightly. he has cast variety of projection spells to ensure the glamour is effective. —pulling aural energy from employees in the surrounding area to witness their own perception of @voxistem actualized by the spell's manifestation. despite the cross-hexes and layered enchantments, val can never see to replicate the sensation on himself. the counter spell's 99% success ratio must be a fallacy, considering he not once glimpsed anything other than the media as he is, unaltered by any illusions that are not of vox's own making. ( a frightening thought, swiftly entombs inself deepest catacombs of his mind. ) valentino swallows the unsteady thrum within his center in favor of a coy smile.
he runs the pad of his thumb along a lower corner of vox's face. ❛ i had to cast an alteration spell to make it work on camera. that one is a fucking nightmare if you don't have enough blood. ❜ he hisses, teeth bared beneath a pouting curl of his plump lower lip. ❛ but worth the effort. no one will be able to resist you now. ❜ he chimes, dipping forward to trace his tongue along the media's lips, a humming chuckle reverberating through the fleeting tangle. ❛ but that's nothing new, is it? ❜ he purrs, one smoldering eye dimming beneath the dip of lashes. ❛ you ready for your speech, baby? ❜
