((Moff was one of the ones captured. I think he was locked up in green chains at one point.))
"Yes, and perhaps to bid," Willow says. "Do I know you?" Her tone is somewhat arrogant. Well, she does think she's better than everyone else. :smalltongue:

Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
((Ok, wasn't that Moff Clumsey?))
Such things aren't that strange for him after all, sadly he sees that as a bad sign. This talk could end earlier than he thought.
"It seems we don't got the honour to know each other. My Name is Andreas Emeral. And you are?"

Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
((I think Moff Chumley was there too, but he didn't get caught.))
"Willow Warwick," she says. "Have I missed much?"

[Cabaret]
The other devil in the room smiles as the auction comes to a close as well, though Lanthil's is not quite so mischievious. Rather, deftly taking a glass of champagne from a passing server, she drifts over to where Dionysis is, falling in place beside him.
"You don't seem to be enjoying yourself as much as you could be. May I ask why?" She says.
Cabaret
Well then, another lovely sight to perk up his spirits. Instead of responding verbally to Lanthil, Dionysius will attempt to graciously sweep up her free hand in his and plant a gentlemanly kiss upon her knuckles.
After that is done, whether it succeeds or fails, he shall speak, "Power and responsibility. I'm expected to temper one with the other, keeping both in equal measure. I am withheld from bidding, because I have the power to bid highly. I am forbid from reveling, because I have the power to breathe life into this stuffy event. The more power one has, the more restrictions one deals with, and some nights I question whether the shackles of power are worth their cumbersome weight."
A rather somber, mellow thought for a god of revelry. Perhaps the night's wine has loosened his lips in entirely the wrong way.

"You only missed the first person wh felt under the hammer. It was a woman named Jezebel, she seems to be the leader of these masked guys."
He saids with a friendly sound. His outfit should tell her that he is no Butler here or anything. Maybe you saw the TekTek when Andy appeared.

Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
[Jezebel's Auction]
Kyranis does indeed come up to the stage to take Jezebel's hand and guide her down the stairs, using a bit of ice magic to form a tray, and float the money to Tualth as he does.
"Mysterious? Clearly, the rest of my House hasn't arrived yet...", he says, smiling back at her.
((I'd say one auction at a time, since that way those that will bid on either won't end up having to pick between two people they want to buy...))
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
Jezebel's Auction
Jezebel takes his hand and looks down at the man. "Who are you though?" She asks as she's guided away. "And for what reason did you bid on me?" She asks, curious.
On stage, Tualth reaches into a hat and pulls out a slip of paper. "Lord Magtok. If you could come up on stage..." She asks of him with a slight smile, amused.
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
[Jezebel & Kyranis]
"Kyranis m'Kybrae ir Ostrim, Sorcerer of House Ostrim. Though I suspect that the title is, at best, a relic here," he replies, shrugging. "And I bid on you because it appeared that the auction was drawing to a close, so I had a fair chance of success, and you interest me."
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
"Oh good. I would have been here sooner, but there was an explosion in the lab... had to clean up..." Then Magtok's name is announced, and Willow looks positively diabolical. :smallamused: "I did not know he would be up for auction. Wouldn't that make a nice little present for Daddy." She moves from the bar area to get a better view of the auction.
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
Defelent and Naethalee
Defelent also ogles Jezebel. Perhaps he should have put a bid down, seeing as both he and Naethalee enjoy looking at her so much. Too late now, though, and it's a bloke up next. Defelent turns to Naethalee after Jezebel is out of sight. "I'll head up to the bar now. Is there anything you would like?"

The clone sitting amongst the auction-goers doesn't even budge from his seat! What the heck is his deal?! Magtok signed up for this thing, he shouldn't be a jerk and try to weasel his way out of it now, when it's far too late to do-
Oh, my bad. Sorry, I didn't see that other Magtok, the one who gave Missy a glass of water earlier. He walks right up onto the stage, trying to ignore the nervous butterflies bouncing around in his stomach. This is almost certainly a terrible idea that will end in disaster, but since it's for charity...well, we all have to make sacrifices to help out those less fortunate, right?

Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
MagAuction
Magtok's text gets no answer.
His auction, though...
Willow Warwick is sitting and waiting for it to start, her little auction paddle at the ready. :smallbiggrin:
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
MagAuction
Tualth smirks and slams down the gavel to signal that the auction is starting.
Jezebel and Kyranis
"Yes, but who are you and why did you vote for me?" Jezebel tries to ask again, unsure if the man understood her question. "I don't mean just that you might snipe out the winning bid, but for what purpose?"
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
MagAuction
"100 gp!" Willow says at once.
Cecily is watching Magtok and pondering, but doesn't put a bid in.
Moff has no interest in winning a Magtok, because he thinks they're all butt-ugly. :smallyuk:
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
MagAuction
"400 GP." Reinholdt says, holding up his paddle with his nice hand and giving Magtok a mischievous smile. :smallamused:
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
[MagAuction]
"500 gp." Samona is on screen for the first time since she showed up. No doubt she's been enjoying the party greatly so far. If maggy looks her way when she makes her bid she'll give him a wink.
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
[MagAuction]
"700."
Grace isn't precisely sure what she'd have Magtok do for a day, but if nothing else, she could put him to work filing her paperwork!
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
MagAuction
Willow frowns. The pot is getting a little high for her. She loves her Daddy very much, but maybe she could get him a nice necktie instead.
"800 gold" Cecily bids, grinning to show her sharp Jaeger teeth.
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
[MagAuction]
A simultaneous cry of "900!" will sound from a pair of voices, one feminine and one androgynous. Integrity and Aubrey look at each other for a moment, before Integrity turns back towards the stage and says, "1000 Gold!"
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
[MagAuction]
Reinholdt twirls the paddle in his hand, as if deciding if it's worth it. But in the end, keeps it down. Having Magtok at the palm of his hand is worth something. But not that much.
Ilpholin doesn't intend to bid.
Butler on the other hand, does! Magtok is one of his favorite people.
"500 gp sirs!" Butler says, waving his paddle enthusiastically.
...
Maybe Moff should explain to him. >>
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
MagAuction
Wouldn't Butler say "ma'ams" since Tualtha started the auction? Then again, she changed gender midway though the show, so maybe Butler is confused.
"You have to pay more than the last person, if you want to win," Moff explains to Butler.
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
MagAuction
"Oh... but... 500 gp is all I have sir." Butler explains back to Moff. He can't bid higher than that!
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
MagAuction
"That just means someone else will win," Moff says. "Don't worry, Magtok will understand." :smallsmile:

[Andy - Willow]
Andy follows her along.
"Magtok is someone who allways suprises you."

Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
MagAuction
"Mhm. He used to work for my dad, you know. Way back when I was a kid," Willow says. You're still a kid, Willow. You're only 18. :smalltongue:
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
MagAuction
"He worked for your father? Strange I never heared Magtok beeing an employee. Did he make his well known speeches in that time as well?"
Andy sais with a smile imagine a younger magtok making a big speech about candys, which wouldn't fir here, but is amusing.
-
Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
MagAuction
Willow shrugs. "I was in pre-school. How should I know?"

"Your questions about my identity are hard to answer without you being more specific, especially since I share it, to some extent, with another...", he replies, shrugging. "As for why I bought you, I find you interesting, as does my soul-bound. Up until now, you haven't been a public figure, from what I've seen - no appearances, at least not publicized ones, no donations to any cause that get announced, not even an obvious use of power - yet you, when you do decide to come into the public eye, can get one of the most prominent people in the Nexus, who's also more powerful than most, to completely close this place for your event, and auction off one of his bodies for a day. I'm sure you can understand why we find that intriguing. And of course, it doesn't hurt that you're beautiful."

Andy shrugs as well.
"Maybe your father told you. You seem to know Magtok a bit and his speech have allways been of note as long as I'm here."
He just tries to have some small talk, but it should be obviouse that this isn't his strongest theme to discuss.

Re: [NEXUS] MaGLoG II: Alcoholic Boogaloo
Dani looks around and waves cheerfully to the newcomers!
