Focus on a slight feeling of shame, but overall a feeling of not wanting to miss-out as it were. I'll handle the wording. Loki likewise was gathering the spell and energy. Be prepared to follow my lead in the dance as it will be easiest to cast that way.

Waiting for Christine to be ready, whereupon Loki smiled, nodded, and moved to twirl her in a soft spin. Using the motion to free a hand to cast subtly--it would be easier with a gesture given the size of the group they wanted to effect. Christine would also hear him suggesting that the cameras should be put away--there were better things to do.

[drpalmer]

got it.

It's an impressive bit of teamwork to cast and suggest at the same time, all the while dancing like there was nothing going on at all.

They are truly imposing pair, incredibly strong together.

[whose_son_am_i]

It is new for Loki to cast with a partner, but it feels right with Christine. She's pulled back in as if nothing had happened beyond the dance move. As they continue around the floor, Loki lets a little satisfied smile come to his face as most of the cameras he'd spotted are no longer there.

There is at least one intrepid guest who'd resisted the suggestion, and Christine will feel Loki's fingers shift against her back. There is a slight kerfluffle as that camera turns into a glass of something, which startled its owner. Nor could Loki help the slight chuckle.

[drpalmer]

It's like second nature to work together, their magics are quite complimentary.

What did you do?

The message comes with amusement. She hadn't been able to see it, but she knew that chuckle meant mischief.

[whose_son_am_i]

Took care of a camera from someone particularly strong-willed. Loki's tone was entirely matter-of-fact. I turned it into a glass with a drink, instead of snakes. Which was my first impulse, but would be quite obvious.

[drpalmer]

The glass is much less obviously you.

There's a bit of pride with her amusement, he's being protective, and it's rather sweet.

[whose_son_am_i]

Wouldn't do to be boring, now would it? With amusement and a deliberate caress of her mind. You *do* look absolutely beautiful. And the cape helped conceal my casting quite nicely.

[drpalmer]

I was just getting jealous of everyone having a cape but me.

There is laughter though the link and a smile on her lips.

but now it's also practical.

[whose_son_am_i]

Have you figured out your own 'uniform' for being a sorceress then? Amusement in Loki's mental voice as well.

[drpalmer]

Do I get one? Am I a super hero now?

She has her armor, and she's charmed it to be available whenever she needs it.

[whose_son_am_i]

You participated in the Battle at Wakanda, and will be a Sanctum Guardian, with sanction and approval of the Sorcerer Supreme. I'd say you are.

[drpalmer]

I don't think I'd be invited to be an avenger.

She is really rather pleased to be thought of as a hero, even if she was one long before she got magic.

Shall we get a drink? I saw champagne flutes.

[whose_son_am_i]

*I* certainly won't be anytime soon, and I am okay with that. Loki's mental voice was filled with soft laughter and amusement. Besides, I've heard that Doctors of your caliber are considered heroes already many times. With clear pride for her.

Moving them towards the edge of the dance floor, where it was easier for them to then exit to find a table. "Go find a seat, Christine. I'll bring us something to drink."

[drpalmer]

You do much better with a loose definition of rules.

Even when he's doing things for the right reason he can't be constrained.

"Thank you." She slips off to find a seat near Brunhilde, who she greets with a wave.

[whose_son_am_i]

Brunhilde had attended in a very sharp, tailored suit instead of a gown. She smiled at Christine when the other sat down, and had a glass over her own. "Ah, you two finally going public?"

[drpalmer]

Christine laughs.

"How could you have possibly known before now?" It's obviously a joke, everyone at least suspected.

[whose_son_am_i]

"He hasn't exactly been subtle, nor have you." Brunhilde replied. "At least at first, we might've all just thought it a whim. Glad to see it wasn't. He needs someone to occupy him to keep the rest of us from dealing with him."

[drpalmer]

"Honestly? I thought it was just a whim at first too." Christine chuckles. "Was he honestly that bad?"

She doesn't often get to openly ask about Loki, especially while he's not around.

[whose_son_am_i]

"I'm not the best person to ask. I only know him from reputation after meeting him just about a year ago. I honestly thought he was one of the Grand Master's lackeys and hangers-on, on Sakaar." Brunhilde said genuinely. "I can say most of the reputation matched, from what I saw on Sakaar and have heard since, except where you're concerned."

[drpalmer]

"I think I've just gotten very lucky, he's always been rather nice to me."

Christine never ceases to be amazed by Loki's reputation vs what she's been with.

"I was living in New York during the invasion, so I didn't have the best first impression."

[whose_son_am_i]

"Yet...you helped him, from what I understand?" Brunhilde tilted her head, confused. "To meet him originally. That's how the rumors are going. You found him injured."

[drpalmer]

"He was bleeding out." She nodded. "I couldn't just leave him, it's not in my nature, no matter who it is."

[whose_son_am_i]

"He probably deserved it. At least..." Brunhilde had a thoughtful look on her face. "At least back then. He's still far too secretive, sneaky, and conniving, but the general mayhem has been more...useful?"

[drpalmer]

"He's very secretive, but I think he's been using his talents for things that are a bit more useful and positive."

She likes to think she's played a hand in that change.

[whose_son_am_i]

"Let's hope that's what it is, and that it sticks." Brunhilde said with a smile and soft laugh. "Anyway, are you having fun?"
