Hercules

[reginaxgeorge]

Regina wasn’t surprised to hear that her idea had worked. While not exactly artistic, she was creative in other ways, like ideas. She mixed white with a pink to make a different light pink, continuing with her swirls. “I’m making..well, I’m making a pink pumpkin. What did you decide on?”

[zerotohero-tnt]

Hercules couldn't help the chuckle when she told him she was just painting a pink pumpkin. "Hey, that works," he said. He probably didn't need to think that much about what he was actually painting. He turned the pumpkin toward her so she could see. "It's a girl pumpkin," he explained as he got some more paint on his brush. "I need to add the nipples now."

[masquerade-superboy]

Superboy looked away, his brow furrowing as he tried to find the right words. "I don't know, sometimes being good feels like… holding back," he admitted, his voice a little quieter. "Like it would be so easy to just give in to that side." He took a deep breath, glancing up at Herc with a mix of frustration and uncertainty. "Let’s talk about something else." Just as Superboy was ready for a topic change, he noticed a crowd at the end. “I think that’s it!” He moved forward with Herc, leading them out of the maze and towards the rest of the party. “We did it, man!” He cheered in delight. “How about that drink to celebrate?”

[zerotohero-tnt]

Hercules felt like he should find some way to respond to the quiet admission from his new friend, but then he asked to change the subject, and Hercules wanted to respect that. "Oh, hell yeah!" he said, speeding up as they headed out of the maze. He let out a loud whoop and jumped up in the air to celebrate. "Absolutely! Lead the way to the drinks!"

[thegoldenfairyboy]

The fairy's eyes darted to Hercules's arms - yes, this man looked more than capable of handling himself, but he was happy his offer didn't fall on deaf ears, all the same. Reluctantly tearing his gaze from those biceps, he focused instead on Hercules' handsome face as spoke - or tried to, anyway. "As they should be - but if that changes, my magic is at your disposal to ward off unwanted judgments and the people who dare to impart them~." He nodded enthusiastically as he kept painting his little bumpkin with broad brush strokes of pretty, pastel colors. "Oh, yes! It's a hobby of mine - flitting through human parties like this, observing and such. It's entertaining. usually, I use my magic to make myself invisible, but since this is a costume party, it felt safe to allow myself to be seen. People won't know I'm actually a fairy." He said with a wink. "One look at you tells me you're no mere mortal, though - so I feel safe letting you in on my little secret." He said with a giggle.

[zerotohero-tnt]

"I'll be sure to keep that offer in mind," Hercules conceded. "I appreciate it, really." He nodded along while the fairy explained his background. "Yeah, tonight really is the perfect time to come out of hiding and really enjoy yourself, isn't it? That's pretty much how I approached it, too. Plus, you can't keep me away from a good party," he said. "Don't worry, your secret's safe with me."

[baddestdeadpool]

Deadpool grabbed the two biggest pumpkins, one on top of the other, and as carefully as possible he put them on the table where the other was sitting. "That sounds like a good idea, man! Kuddos too for letting me do the wicked one. I don't do good with nice." He sat beside him, this time choosing one of the carving tools they could use and begun with taking the top off. "I'm Deadpool by the way. I know, kinda late but better than never, right? And I think I might have an idea of your name, over those two impressive guns you call arms, but I'd rather you tell me."

[zerotohero-tnt]

"Something told me you'd be on board with that plan," Hercules said with a laugh. "And I'm Hercules. Demi-god, general strong guy, yadda yadda. Nice to meet you." He started to carve his own pumpkin and then pulled the seeds out by the handful, dumping them onto a pile of newspaper. "Have you ever baked these? They're delicious, even if it's a ton of work to clean them first."

[theonlypopstar]

The singer tossed her hair over her shoulder - she knew her talent and beauty knew no bounds, but it actually meant something coming from this absolute stud of a man. Her lashes fluttered flirtatiously behind her mask, his smile both endearing and sexy at the same time. "See, there you go - that sounds like a perfect idea." The singer replied in a silky, seductive voice as she subtly moved in closer to the man under the premise of watching him paint. "I hope you don't mind...I've just never seen a hydra before, and I'd love to see your interpretation of one so I can imagine how you'd look taking one down."

[zerotohero-tnt]

"Oh, hydras are epic," Hercules said as he got some paint onto a brush and set to work. Luckily, it was easy enough to paint the necks and heads. "If you cut off one head, two more grow back in its place. They're a bitch to kill." He glanced over at her, then quickly added, "but don't worry, I'll protect you if you need me to."

[dommharleyyyquiinnn]

Harley cackles "Play ya cards right, Pretty Boy. We'll see" Harley gives a devilish smirk. It's not like Harley's wearing a lot of as it is. Harley leans in, fluttering eyelashes “And don’t worry—I got a pretty high tolerance fo' terrible. Besides, who says I don’t like a lil' mess?” Harley jumps into a seat in front of Herc "Now, c’mon! I wanna see ya try!"

[zerotohero-tnt]

Hercules felt better when Harley okayed him making a disaster of an attempt at painting the other on his pumpkin. "Well, here goes nothing," he said, grabbing a paintbrush and some paints and getting to work. He started with making it all white, but then he realized he had to let it dry before he did anything else. "Why don't you try one of me?" he asked while the paint dried. "I bet yours is going to be way better than mine!"

[thoristotallyadom]

"There's definitely someone who's caught my attention," Thor smiled at Hercules, pointedly looking over the handsome man, checking him out.

[zerotohero-tnt]

Hercules grinned when he saw whom, exactly, Thor was talking about. “Just like I said,” he told him. “You can have anyone you want here.”

[thoristotallyadom]

"I don't know about that, I just like complimenting people and making sure they feel good," Thor smiled, as he reached over and patted Hercules on the thigh.

[zerotohero-tnt]

Hercules raised an eyebrow at the way Thor touched him wile insisting that Herc was wrong about how desirable he was. "Oh, I think I'm definitely right. Is there anyone that's, uh, caught your attention?"

[thoristotallyadom]

Thor beamed eagerly, happy to see that his compliment had landed. "You've got a way with words," he smiled. "I mostly just say nice things and hope the other person thinks they're nice too."

[zerotohero-tnt]

"Not really," Hercules said, shrugging. He stepped around the glass and sat down next to Thor. "You're really good at that, though. I bet you could have anyone here falling all over you if you wanted."

[thoristotallyadom]

He grinned, seeing how Hercules was trying not to laugh, and enjoying that reaction. "Ambrosia, I like it!" he smiled. "I'm talking to a very handsome man, how could I not be enjoying tonight?"

[zerotohero-tnt]

Thor's compliment made Hercules grin. The other man was clearly a flirt, and he was going to have fun with it. "Isn't there some saying about how like attracts like?"

[thoristotallyadom]

"Midgard. This realm, this world," Thor smiled, as he gestured around with his large arms. "Yes! Midgard has produced many wonderful things, but their drinks are some of the best in all the nine realms!"

[zerotohero-tnt]

"Oh." Hercules nodded and did his best not to laugh at how over the top Thor was being. He loved it. "Where I'm from, we call this ambrosia." He took another sip and looked around. "Are you having a good time tonight?"

[reginaxgeorge]

Regina decided to take a break from judging people on the dance floor to do something creative. Not really her thing, but how hard could it be? She chose every shade of pink that they had available and took a seat. She started by painting the pumpkin a medium pink and then going in with lighter pink swirls. “I don’t know. Close your eyes and picture something and then see if you can make it?”

[zerotohero-tnt]

Hercules took the woman's advice and closed his eyes, but he wasn't really sure what he was looking for. His mind kept flashing back to some of the sex he'd seen going on throughout the night between the masked humans. "I... guess that worked?" he said, grabbing a plate to set out brown, white, and black paint to hopefully blend together into various shades of skin tones. He decided that boobs would be easier to attempt to paint than a dick, so he started there, making some curves on the side of his pumpkin. "What are you making?"

[baddestdeadpool]

Deadpool scratched his neck. "Look, I'm sorry for cutting up your pumpkin. Let me get you another one and we'll do it together, yeah?" He looked around. "I see your point there. Should it have a wicked face, or a nicer one?"

[zerotohero-tnt]

Hercules shrugged and tossed the two remaining pieces of his pumpkin into the grass off to the side. "Works for me," he said, going to sit down at an empty table while he waited for Deadpool to bring them new pumpkins. "How about we do one of each? I'll do the nice one, and you can do the wicked one."

[thoristotallyadom]

"It's good," Thor nodded as he took one of the cups. "Nectar of the Gods! Yes, Midgard has captured the drink of the gods and put it on display here!" he grinned.

[zerotohero-tnt]

"Midgard?" Hercules asked, confused. Weren't they in some place called Ohio? Or was Midgard a person he hadn't met yet? He sipped at his cup and grinned as the sweet liquid hit his tongue. "Oh, this is good!"

[thegoldenfairyboy]

The fairy grinned encouragingly. "Mount Olympus isn't a place most people have a clear image of, so really, whatever you create can't be judged - and if anyone tries, I'll sprinkle them with pixie dust so that they and their judgemental opinions float far, far away." He said, turning around and throwing his butt out a little, wiggling it and his wings at the same time. "Soo - what's a God like you doing down here with the mortals for the night, mister?"

[zerotohero-tnt]

Hercules laughed, caught off guard by the fairy's sudden but pleasant threat on his behalf. "Well, that's very kind of you to offer, but I think I'll probably manage. People here seem to be more focused on bodily pleasure than judgment tonight." He tore his eyes away from the fairy's ass and went back to painting. "Attending a party seemed like a fun time. Are you usually amongst the mortals?"

[masquerade-superboy]

Walking beside Herc made the maze feel a lot less tense. Superboy glanced around as they walked, "I get what you’re saying, but… I don’t know. It’s complicated." He shoved his hands in his pockets, his steps slowing a little. "I think sometimes I’m afraid of what could happen if I let myself break too many rules. My other dad, Lex… well, he’s proof of what happens when power and control get mixed up with the wrong intentions. Sometimes, I worry there's a side of me that might lean that way if I’m not careful."

[zerotohero-tnt]

Herc frowned when Superboy started speaking so openly about his concerns. It sounded like this was something that had been eating at him for a while. Herc wrapped an arm around the man's waist and guided them down the right-hand path when they got to another curve. "I think the fact that you're worried about it means that it's not something that's likely to happen. If you want to be good, you'll be good."

[twistedxtinkerbell]

Tink gave a soft hum, trying not to show her disappointment. "Yeah, we probably shouldn't take up everyone else's time on it." She offered him a sweet smile, then manuevered her way out of the booth. "Oh these are cute though!" she said, grabbing the prints from the outside.

[zerotohero-tnt]

Hercules slid his hand down Tink's body as she climbed off of him, letting it rest on her ass until she fully stepped out of the photo booth. He joined her a moment later and wrapped an arm around her waist as he looked over her shoulder at the photos. "Oh, that one's great!" he said, laughing as he pointed at one with both of them pulling faces.
