Party night. The best of nights. An ornate sign on 33 Apocalypse’s door invited all to knock and make themselves known.

The space inside was bigger than it looked from the outside, stretched and displaced by magic. The wallpaper was green and textured, hinting at the English countryside. On one side of the room sat a significant bar offering food and drinks, while the other gave ample space to sit. A large Jenga tower held prominence in a corner.

It was easy to miss it, though, in favor of the little streams of water that ran across furniture and floor. Tiny glass gondolas, animated by magic, made their way back and forth across each stream. The gondolas were real, though the water itself was an illusion. It called attention to the ceiling, doubly enchanted: both to draw all cigarette smoke to itself so it wouldn’t blow in anyone’s face, but also to mimic the starry sky above Venice.

You could watch the stars twinkle, or see the occasional cloud go by. Magical fireflies added to the illusion, dancing through the air like tiny lights. If you listened closely, you could hear the sea rolling in across an invisible beach. Even the air smelled faintly of it: the sea, warm food and good wine.

Welcome to Eliot and Margo’s pad, people. They’d make damn sure you had a good time.

[ocd up, come party!]

Irene had promised to wear something fabulous, and while there was certainly no shortage of fabulousness in her wardrobe, she did only have so many masquerade masks to choose from.

When in doubt, however, make a statement, and there weren't many pieces more statement-y than her raspberry Alex Perry jumpsuit and accompanying matching mask. She'd left her hair down, wavy and swept over one shoulder, and accented the whole thing with some simple silver chains around her neck and a delicate bangle or two at her wrists.

Was it a little breezy for mid-October? Sure, but it would be warm in the party, Irene was sure, and moreover, sacrifices needed to be made.

Well, Wanda had to come and support her employee's party (or was it weird for your boss to come?). In true Scarlet Witch fashion, the mask and dress she wore were both red. It was her thing, okay? Let her have it.

She would be extremely impressed by the house, especially when she discovered it was bigger on the inside. One day she would try that kind of magic on her apartment when she wasn't in fear of destroying the town by accident.

If it were anywhere else, Amaya might have considerable second thoughts about attending some fancy party where magic was likely to be involved, but this was Fandom, so that made it plenty different enough that she supposed she wouldn't feel too uncomfortable or wind up spending all evening rolling her eyes straight out of her head. And since she really only had the one fancy dress, she briefly considered actually finding herself something new, then she staunchly reminded herself that she was not here to impress anyone...no one at all!....so she was sticking with the one fancy dress she had that miraculously didn't even have any oil or soot on it.

Though, despite previous claims about not wanting to impress anyone, she'd spent a good few days whipping up a metal mask to match in her shop that week, which she'd just put the finishing touches on that day, actually, and that she was pretty proud of and might be a little put out if no one wound up being even a little impressed by it.

Lucille might not be on the best of terms with the hostess, but she assumed Margo would get over the poison business soon enough, and things like that were rarely an issue when it came to parties here. She arrived wearing her finest gown along with a mask she had purchased a while ago for an occasion like this.

Lucille found a seat, arranged her skirt nicely, and sipped on a glass of red wine, looking around for familiar faces.

Outside of his Crownsguard uniform, Gladio never really was much of a fancy-dress kind of guy. Thankfully, he was buddies with someone who was, but he was pretty sure Ignis would have a few choice words to say about not being involved at all in Gladio's attempts to make a nice suit distinctly his own.

Look, his other option for this thing involved the words 'sequined cape with a high collar', so....you're welcome.

He was also pretty pleased to have found a mask that really played into his whole eagle/wing aesthetic a little bit.

"Sort of my brand. The red, not the drama," Wanda said with a smile. "Yes, I'm Wanda, nice to meet you."
