[Event Video] Be Prepared! For the Death of the Duchess!
[The video feed opens to Loki, once again, clad in his green and golden royal regalia. That ridiculously large horned helmet was polished impeccably! He was dressed to the nines and his ego was just spilling from his leather and metal robes.
He's grinning far too wide, showing all those pearly whites. Bright green eyes nearly glowing with vigour. Oh, this man had something important to say. Something very important. And somehow, his lips pull back to reveal even more teeth as he laughs at the camera. God of Madness? Why yes, he certainly fits that title today. Chaos. Insanity. Pandemonium...]
You are, all of you, beneath me! Is that not what you said? [No, wait, that's what HE said. But close enough. Why yes, he's addressing you, Duchess.] I know not who you are, but I am here to answer that challenge. Show yourself and we shall see who is beneath whom!
[If he looks a little crazy, well... he really is. Even the Avengers didn't see him this unhinged, because he's never been pushed this far. This man has an ego large enough as it is, but when the magic of Wonderland goads it--inflates it--agitates it further, he can easily fall to the madness of his own mind. Wonderland, this is a very, very dark mind to be unleashing on the residents. How fortunate, that he's suddenly trapped in a Disney movie.]
Be prepared, you snivelling sow! I shall find you! And when I do, you will answer to each and every one of us here! They may be mortals, but they... [He laughs lightly, humorously.] ...they can be quite useful. And they deserve their just dues, paid by none other than you, Duchess!
[And that's when the unhinged prince of Asgard begins to slip into song, completely with his own background music and shifting scenery as his magic swirls and seethes within him, giving physical representation of the state of his mind. His surrounds sink to inky blackness, painted with low-lying green mist, and poisonous fires erupting around him, casting him in more green lighting.]
I never thought mortals essential,
They're crude and unspeakably plain,
But maybe they've a glimmer of potential,
If allied to my vision and brain.
I know that your powers of retention,
Are as wet as a bilgesnipe's back side,
But thick as you are, pay attention!
My words are a matter of pride!
It's clear from your vacant expressions,
The lights are not all on upstairs,
But we're talking kings and successions,
Even you can't be caught unaware!
So prepare for the chance of a lifetime,
Be prepared for sensational news,
A shining new era,
Is tiptoeing nearer.
I know it sounds sordid,
But you'll be rewarded,
When at last I am given my dues,
And in justice deliciously squared,
Be prepared!
Of course, quid pro quo, you're expected,
To take certain duties on board,
The future is littered with prizes,
And though I'm the main addressee,
The point that I must emphasize is,
You won't get a THING without me!
So prepare for the coo of the century,
Be prepared for the murkiest scam,
Meticulous planning,
Tenacity spanning,
Decades of denial,
Is simply why I'll,
Be king undisputed,
Respected, saluted,
And seen for the wonder I am,
Yes, my teeth and ambitions are bared,
Be prepared!
Yes, my teeth and ambitions are bared,
Be prepared!
[As he comes out of the song, the background of twisting smoke and fire settles into the inky blackness. Yes, to anyone actually watching this pretentious display... well. Likely, when he comes out of this temporary insanity due to overinflated ego (because, again, who thought it was a good idea to pump Loki's ego up on steroids?!) he will probably feel the strong desire to kill anyone who brings this up later. It's also quite possible he won't be showing his face around for a good long while.]

video; locked (I think the feeling's mutual!)
Something like that. A partnership, is it?
[His smile only broadens and he holds himself with even more pride.]
King of Asgard is synonymous with King of the Gods, as the King of Asgard rules over the nine realms. The King of Kings and a God of Gods.
Another demon? [He seems almost pleased to hear that.] And the first of their race? You must be incredibly powerful, Lady Lilith.
Re: video; locked (The mutual praise certainly seals the deal)
It certainly would be wise to seek the friendship of such a powerful and...handsome god.
[That he doesn't look down on her race makes him even more delightful.]
Then I suppose King is a perfect title for you. You have the bearing of King, the...regality.
I do have some ability. [Feigned modesty] I prefer brains to brawn, of course.
video; locked (Indeed it does!)
From a beauty such as yourself, I will gladly accept that appraisal.
[That she doesn't shriek "trickster" and make jests about horses, (of which he knows nothing about) makes her that much more appealing as well.]
Then you are investigating the correct ally. Power is one thing. Having the intelligence and cunning to wield it properly does make all the difference. I see this partnership, if that is what I am to glean of this, to be a very fruitful one, indeed.
video; locked
We are at least well matched in this, as I hope, in many other things as well.
[She is pleased by his open appreciation of her thoughts. He seems to be a forward thinker, something that pulls her in further.]
I do indeed hope for a partnership. There are so few allies about that have any shred of intelligence within them. Have you ever felt surrounded by idiots?
