If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks...

[coldsong]

It's customary to have a Wake after the subject thereof dies. Even Loki knows that. But this is a special occasion. Ego-death is coming to his alternate, and the idea of letting him go off to perish alone, uncertain he will even be mourned, is too dark a proposition even for a flawed and callous person to contemplate.

That, and this Loki has been in a melancholy mood since speaking to the spirit of Frigga. He anticipates a dark choice of his own, sooner or later, and where the fates will send him after that, he can't know. Maybe oblivion, although even at that rate there may be worse places.

What's important right now is that no one dies unremembered. And honestly, any excuse for mischief a party. The first text rolls out to Harley, an innocent enough invitation to join them for milkshakes. Cricket is next, because it occurs to him that Cricket has plenty of liquor, which is good for a reckless celebration.

Things snowball from there.

As long as they don't destroy too much property, they'll call the night a success.

"Did you never study the science of dance?" Harley grins at him.

[lovesuwithknives]

"I did, though one cannot be an expert at everything one studies!" is his merry reply. There just is no easy way to harsh this man's mood, which is useful at a party.

He'll turn this into a whirling reel, then, close and fast, feet a blur. Well, it sounded like a challenge.

It might be a challenge to some... but Harley is a skilled dancer and a skilled gymnast. She will be able to keep up to the close and fast dance. Laughing as he whirls her around the dance floor.

It's a good job both of them are quite fit, as it doesn't seem as though the music will slow down any time soon.

"Is this better?" Azwel asks, what can only be described as a big ol shiteating grin on his face.

[sweetcandygirl]

"Are you having fun? Because if you are... then this is better!"

[lovesuwithknives]

"How can one not have fun while dancing?"

It boggles the mind of even the deepest philosophers.
