[Loki is up at a ridiculous early hour. He hurries to post a message on the corkboard and after that he hurries back into his room to rummage through his stuff and not wake Thor. When it is about sleepovers of a most epic kind Loki needs to come prepared, of course. He figures there might be blankets and a pillow so at least he does not have to drag that all through town.

He picks out some books, some clothes, grabs the notebook where he hid that weird note he has scribbled that one time he cannot remember. He is humming a song to distract him from the fact that he is more confused than anything right now. He has not been able to speak to Leah after their visit to the spa. He has been quite successful in avoiding her, actually, especially since the effect of the chocolates did not fade like they should. Still, sometimes he still peeked out of the window at nights to see if she was sitting there like she always did. Habits never really die easily, after all.

And that is where this epic sleepover comes in! And feel free to bump into him as he is running up and down floor five, making a mess of the kitchen or being far too loud during the morning.]


[Well, Loki arrives at House 44 quite on time. He's holding a bag filled with books and another bag with clothes. Really, the god of mischief is not one for many luggage.]

Hello! Hello! Hello! I have come for the great sleepover!

[He is waving to anyone who might spot him standing underneath a window or in front of the door. And of course he'll knock the door a couple of times for emphasis.]

Dearest land of Luceti,

Since the great feast of Valentine has passed us I think it is an excellent time to assess eachother's experiences during this great feast. Have you been able to achieve great love through my excellent advices? Have you been able to make out with the tongues? Or did you even got the time to rut? After all, the feast of Valentines is an excellent opportunity for such acts of pleasure.

Dr. L. Laufeyson is once again open for all your remarks, suggestions, questions, assumptions, ideas, thoughts, opinions, feelings, views, presumptions, analyses, stories, could be's and should be's.

I am most interested in your stories and I shall answer all your questions just as accurate as I have done before, yes?

All the best in the Nine Realms and the like,

L. Laufeyson

PS: Is there anyone else still suffering from the effects from these chocolate treats? I am still rather eager to engage in the act of hugging. :-/

[ Helios smiles when Luminair's tail wags frantically at those pets. The baby dragon will give one or two more happy high pitched squeaks before running back into the living and settling down by the fireplace. ]

Oh I think we have enough for another cup or two. Would you like some?

[Loki smiles enthusiastically and yes, he is happy to be here. It has been a good choice to plan this.]

Definitely. It is like hot shaken milk, you see? And I will show you my progress in magics in the meanwhile.

I have studied a lot. And I am a quick study. A famous one.

[ Helios returns a smile just as enthusiastically and he motions for Loki to come into the kitchen and take a seat while he makes a hot chocolate for the both of them. ]

Hot shaken milk? Ah! You mean chocolate milk, yes I suppose it is like that. It's funny how many different ways you can utilize chocolate. It's almost like magic too. [ He smirks as he begins to boil some milk. And with that note... ] I'd be very happy to see your progress. I'm sure it won't disappoint, you are quite the studious student.

[ And having enthusiasm and overall willingness to learn does wonders for one's learning output. ]

[Loki latches on to Helios' arm and lowers his voice to a whisper.]

I am still cursed by the Valentine chocolate. I might get clingy. Not because I want to, because they force my brain to do so.

[He lets go when they are inside the kitchen and the second he does so he immediately notices that he craves for contact. Thats why Loki decides to sit on his hands while Helios prepares the hot chocolate.]

Yes! That is an excellent comparison! Would there be a way to practice chocolate magic?

[Loki is very fidgety when talking but nothing he is not able to control.]

Allow me to demonstrate after you have given me the hot chocolate. You will be most impressed.

[ Helios startles a little when Loki grabs his arm. He looks a bit concerned, a small frown touching his features as he continues to make the hot chocolate for the both of them. ] O-Oh! I, ah, I see. I've never heard of it ever lasting for more than the allotted time of-of a week or two. Are you sure you're going to be all right?

[ He knows that Loki won't exactly tell him the truth, but it's worth asking anyway. At least the effects aren't too detrimental, but that doesn't mean that everyone would like to be under the shift's effects for a prolonged period of time. He'll snap out of his thoughts as he regards Loki and his question. The change of topic a welcomed one if Helios' soft smile is any indication. ]

Chocolate magic? Ah, perhaps doing it out back might be best. In the shed I mean. I wouldn't want to repeat what happened last time when I tried magic and food together.

[ He'll give a good-humored chuckle at the memory. But the last think he'd need is Adele getting angry again for exploding the kitchen. ]

It might be a horrible combination between a cruel twist of fate and me overeating on creamy milky chocolates. I will be allright. When haven't I been allright, right?

[He moves to fiddle with the hem of his shirt and his gloves and everything he is able to fiddle with.]

A shed? Is that your secret hide out where you conduct illicit magicks? Do you know forbidden magicks? Of course I wouldn't even think about tampering with such a thing.
