PLANS Mostly building a CR base. Reuniting with Billy Kaplan, possible adventures with Magneto, and building both of those relationships. He'll be possibly teaching some low-level sorcery to a few select students, depending on how the idea itself is received. Otherwise, he plans on traveling around to see some of the sights along Dorchadas (and further, depending). He'll be looking into the sorcery within the world, as well as various kinds of sorcerous explosives, and different kinds of poisons. He'll want to examine the political structure, myths and find out more of the details about the war itself. There may be some rebellions and messing-up-of-things included in this, possibly with anti-shardbearer sentiments. SUMMARY OF KNOWN DETAILS ✖ Part-time adjunct professor of illusion at a mage uni. Spreading the general illusion bits around town. Gaining some very interesting information from said exploits. ✖ Saber's super super super secret R&D project. There will be trials and errors. ✖ Possible dabblings with the Midnight Court. ✖ Rin, Johnny, Magneto, Zuko, Sansa, Sam, Maleficent QUESTS ✖ REDGATE | The Walking Dead TIMELINE OF EVENTS SPRING IN 2,701 (Mar, Apr, May) MARCH—Roc, the king of the birds, throws some awful snowstorms across drabwuld. Since Loki's a frost giant, he likely won't become a Lokisicle, but he'll try to find some creative ways to get people un-frozen. MARCH—Boons boons boons boons boons boons boons boons boons boons boons. APRIL—Histrionic Loki with a crazy emotionally-driving harp in his dreams. He'll find it and destroy it. This also might be an interesting time for his CR, since he'll be a little more sensitive and vulnerable. APRIL—Boons boons boons boons boons boons boons boons boons boons boons. MAY—Golden swans migrate, devouring and destroying. Loki will be capturing and collecting them to gain some wealth. MAY—Possibly beginning to find a place to settle after the monarchs leave. Teaching some low-level chaos magic to a few new faces that he's possibly bunking with. SUMMER IN 2,701 (Jun, Jul, Aug) OVERVIEW—Refining his own abilities (depending on his boons) and continuing to foster the chaos magic abilities of those who may be around him during that time. Also helping Billy Kaplan with his finesse. JUNE—Checking on some of the Jabberwock sites that are affected with the rot. He can't do much in regards to healing, but it'll be a good opportunity to meet CR with the people who may have a better those abilities. JUNE—pOSSIBLE MAGICAL TOURNEY?? Using magic? Probably not, but he's very curious to see what other people in the world can do, so he may check it out for observational purposes, and to see if he can learn any new tricks. JULY—The sudden violence wrought by the anti-shardbearer demonstration hits a head, and Loki heads to investigate. Possible meetings with Magneto about this, as well as Acts of Vengeance 2: Electric Bugaloo, but with more good intentions. AUGUST—That sure is a bazaar, Sansa. Insert domestic bazaar stuff here. AUGUST—Leathann's Festival of Lights. SCREW THAT, WE'RE GOING TO THE FESTIVAL OF SHADOWS. Domestic festival stuff here. FALL IN 2,701 (Sept, Oct, Nov) SEPTEMBER—The magic that allows everyone to understand Drabbish goes nuts. Loki has the All-Tongue and can translate. Who am I kidding? He's going to mistranslate everything for everyone. Enjoy your miscommunications. SEPTEMBER—Drunk. OCTOBER—Drunk. OCTOBER—Oh Black Shuck too. NOVEMBER—Rounding up some of the mages/sorcerers from the Leathann prison break—but he's more willing to make deals than he is to turn them in. He'll be looking to gain whatever he can experience-wise/magic-wise/knowledge-wise from the escaped criminals. He also isn't against rounding them up, depending. WINTER IN 2,701/2,702 (Dec, Jan, Feb) DECEMBER—Drunk hunt. JANUARY—Heading back to Caer Scima to blow raspberries at the Seelie from a long ways away. IT'S REBUILT, TAKE THAT, SEELIE. FEBRUARY—Murder mystery at the children's festival. SPRING IN 2,702 (Mar, Apr) MARCH & APRIL—Shit gets real. ref.

Then use both tricks. Old dog, new dog, a little bit of new old dog.

[ Loki wiggles his fingers to somehow further his point. he was about new things, new starts, and even if it was the same old song and dance, it was different with the added spice of this world's integrated sorcery. ]

[uneulogized]

[As simple as that? Jason doesn't know if it's possible for it to be as simple as that. He still has his doubts, but he doesn't bother expressing them again. They've already been vocalized. There's no point in doing it again.]

Then show me.

[selfimage]

[ never as simple as that, but it's a place to start. he wasn't going to discount Jason's adaptability, he's done good integrating himself into a world that from what Loki's seen, is completely different than the one he's used to. that's part of it—and whatever he believes he's stuck on, well ... they could work on it.

Loki beckons to him, leading him around the corner where the cultist thin. he keeps talking like they're taking a friendly stroll. ]

Magic, at its most basic, is about taking thought and making it real. That's it, that's the secret. You can forget runes, grimoires and hocus pocus, even if some of the more old fogies of the magic world will tell you otherwise.

[ he twists his finger in the air, a disorienting green light following the motion. ]

So, you build a story. A lie. You tell reality what you want others to see, and it reflects back at them. Therein lies the tricky part—the lie has to fool them, your own senses, and the cosmos. It has to be perfect.

[uneulogized]

So it's a matter of deception. Creative deception. [The way that Jason lies will never be the same way that Loki lies. But he understands mischief and misdirection, having had to learn it both as Robin and for the last two years. In order to keep alive, in order to remain undetected, he's had to pretend to be someone else. No one should be able to guess that the rich boy, or frat boy, or adventuring idiot, is someone who was once trained by the world famous Batman.

He prefers certain parts of playing the fool, but he's flexible enough to do it in a lot of ways.]

I can handle that. But maybe not the way you need me to.

[selfimage]

If I thought you'd handle it the same way, then I would've started with the whole rune thing. Best to cut to the chase when it comes to the finer points in illusion magics.

[ there's hands on his hips and his cheeks puff out slightly in response. ]

Besides, you're not exactly about to win the prize for Mister Conformity. [ but he sounds all too pleased about that. ] Shall we get started?

[uneulogized]

That's just because there's nothing worth conforming with. [Jason's seen and met too many people who are too caught up in particular ideals and behavior that end up driving them against a wall. It's his need for nonconformity that drove him away from Bruce in the end.

At least, it's the better part of all of that. There's still the tricky bit where he's died.]

But let's get moving, pal.

[selfimage]

Pal. I like that.

[ and Loki whisks him off around the corner to find somewhere quiet to weave, pull and outright lie to the fabric of reality. it takes some getting used to—finding where the lie meets the truth and holding it. the cosmos ripples in response, and there are failed attempts that are all too real, as well as those that end in tears of laughter. Loki warns not "push the red button" too hard, 'less there be some kind of consequence that comes with it. ]
