he rolled his eyes and sank back into the arms of the suprized beef. he never participated in any of the silverleaf events only the ones put up by his house. it was all scavenger hunts and best-dress things anyway. he sulked in another few minutes zeus would give a speech and he'd have to leave the floor to call out the house winners too.

[DarkForbidden-Love]

"For the Silver Lead Dance winners we have Flightless and Sephy as the First place couple, and Dragonia has once again taken fist in induvidual." The crowds applauds, and Facade waits for them to stop, "You are granted the Zeus's lightning bolt and the Golden Septer for wining this year." The winners know to collect their prize from his bird not Facade himself. "Second place couple is Hildei and Dazlon, second place induvidual is Mirror Mirror." Mirror Mirror gets several boos and a glare to silence them. "Poseidon's spear and silver septer for you winners." This is all the same old every year and Facade just falls into pattern, "And third place we have Mizuki and Flaw for your couple and Neo for singles. You recieve the Hade's skull and bronze septer" The crowd applaud the dance wins but falls silent quictly.

"Favorite outfits go to Mako, Vocanio, and Misinformation. You guys get the Golden Apple." The items are different every year and with the Greek theme for this party the winners get Greek themed prizes. The three winners for this one did not have to come to the stage, each apple being dropped into their laps. ""And now you all wonder who won the quiz?" Several feverant nodds from the crowd and Facade just gins. "That is last on today's roster," Several people groan at Facade's teasing. "I'll turn my mike over to the next announcer and keep you in suspence for the quiz results." Facade would have winked but the hood covered his eyes so he did a half wave and handed his mike to the next person in line.

[littl3chocobo]

he watched as the boy relinquished his rights to the mike and zeus came on stage to welcome and encourage new members, visitors and those who only came for the yearly parties. he tapped on the beef and was let down. he had no intention on listening to that asshole give his speech he had heard it enough times in the week leading up to the party as was. he knew he had eight minutes of talk and 2-5 of zeus just just filling it in with stupid commentary. some days he wanted to punch the lout. he meandered to the stage-stairs the other may still be in the room beyond

[DarkForbidden-Love]

Facade was behind stage setting up for his next act. He was so into his set up he almost did not here someone come up the stairs. Facade gave a grin, this unsespecting anouncer would be perfect to test his technique. Facade was working on a smoke bomb that once disappitated would leave faint traces of colored paint same color as the smoke bomb. He also need to make sure his rigged trap would actually work. Facade was afraid that the trap would be easily seen and avoided; he needed something to prank the Silver Leaf. Silver Leaf had stopped being afraid of Facade pranks a while ago and that needed to change.

"Gold for you my friend," Facade whispered and then his trap was set.

[littl3chocobo]

he made it to the door mostly unmolested but no farther, he was halted by a sparkle-eyed girl in green. one of zeus's girl he figured from the dress of her. he gave her his obligatory kiss and held the door for her as she passed through. he may not like the king but it was no reason to take it out on the rest.

[DarkForbidden-Love]

Facade grinned when he finally saw his victim. She was one of Zeus's girls and was now had gold lines all over her that made her look as though she was cracked pottery. "Hello, miss. I hope you don't mind standing still for a moment I need to record this for future reference." Facade said politly with a evil grin. The girl would not be able to move if he had done this right.

[littl3chocobo]

he stood at the door his mouth agape '-still for a moment i need to record this for future reference" another moment and his brain began to function again, he burst out into loud laughter

[DarkForbidden-Love]

Facade raised an eyebrow at his second guest who was laughing at the sight of his first one. "Would you like to help, too?" He asked hoping for possible revenge for earlier. "I still need to work on my pink smoke bombs and my paper tricks." Facade hated paper tricks they required so much set up but for this person he would make an exception. The female was standing still obviously deciding to leave the crazy to do his work. Facade pulled out his notebook and jotted down his opservations while waiting for the others reply. "Your names please?" He asked.

[littl3chocobo]

when the laughter calmed he turned to the other. "you know, i figured you to be someone intimidating, but really you are just a dork" he smiled then for real. "though, if i 'help' you out is it as a conspirator or as a victim?"

[DarkForbidden-Love]

"I should be offended by being called a dork but I'll let it slid." Facade said with a grin. "And 'help' is an ambigious term, it is one and both."

The trapped girl finally got the nerve to speak, "I'll tell Zeus that there is a trickster back here once I get out." Facade snapped his notebook shut with a toothy smile.

"Zeus won't care, he knows I exist and that is more then enough for him." Facade said simply, "Acording to him I'm a mostly harmless parasite who has a freakish love for difficult riddles." Facade gave the girl a once over, "And I don't need your name any more, I'll call you Zeus's girly." He finally turned his attention back to the untrapped one, "What should I call you? Flirty?"

[littl3chocobo]

he chuckled at the name, it was so lame but was not so far from the truth, the beefs were not known for their free-thinking that was for sure. he put on a smirk "um, how about king vegan? it's topically relevant anyway" from the corner of his eye he saw the girl give him a dirty look "haha, or you can call me narcissus, though it has not seemed to have taken since the last time i said it"

[DarkForbidden-Love]

"Narcissus?" Facade asked but mentally shrugged he had heard worse. "Ah, well I hope you really don't mind helping me out." Even if Facade could not actually prank him right now Facade could add a little spruce to his pitiful life. "Because I have to disappear and Zeus's girly is about to become unstuck." Disappear was correct, he did need to recheck his trick for the quiz winner. "I so hate to leave a trick unfinished so be a darling and write down how Zeus's girly reacts and if there are any side-effect." A black spiral bound appeared in Narcissus's hand and Facade gave him a wink and disappeared behind one of the stages fakewalls. "And now my darling winners, you get a trick before your treat." He whispered.

[littl3chocobo]

he held the book stupidly. he was not sure what to do with it anyway. he tucked it under his arm and and turned back to go on stage, it would be his turn soon and seeing as the other left he had no business here. he left the girl.

[DarkForbidden-Love]

The trick he was planning was simple but everyone hated it. Normal magicians did it with a willing helper not a few surprised people. And how did not loved being dyed pink? But maybe he shuld change it to another color, purple or silver perhaps?

[littl3chocobo]

he gracefully ascended the stage just as zeus finished his speech, the crowd erupted in cheers and cat-calls. he obliged with a sweep of his hair and a bow. the people knew who ran the events.

[DarkForbidden-Love]

The cheers almost defened Facade as he finshed setting up. He even stumbled a bit at the sudden increase in sound and he could not help but wonder who was talking to create such a reaction. Surely Silver Leaf had not decided to skip several other people's events and go to the end. Facade decided he could find out once he got out of the walls and floor. He made a mental note to actually pay more attention to who the other people who were speaking next time.
