[He's been trying to take the high road when it comes to the antics of the tiny god of mischief. Not a peep out of him over the candy corn! Did you see that? Not a single word! He may have even managed a chuckle and a thought of "well played", once he finally unclenched his jaw. More recently, he didn't once accuse him ~~verbally~~ of the sex swapping in the days before the culprit came clean.

But today, Dr. Byron Orpheus has had enough.

Maybe he's been called Count Chocula by one too many passersby, as if a cape isn't a perfectly acceptable thing to wear. Maybe holidays focused on family give him an extra dose of missing his daughter and the fact that it's THANKSGIVING IN OCTOBER just further emphasizes the fact that he's not at home.

Regardless of the precise reason, he has set the NV at one end of his dinner table while he sits at the other. There's a faint haze around the food items as he levitates them over the table, making mashed potatoes, rolls and green beans spin and somersault around his reanimated turkey.]

I can make my food dance, too. I fail to see how it's that impressive of a feat.

Through a demonstration of my powers.

A demonstration that you used to show everyone that you were playing with your food.

No, to show Loki that he is not the only one who can pl- who can put food in motion.

You were about to say 'play', weren't you?

Only because you are so insistent on using the word.

Or maybe you just don't want to admit that you wanted an excuse to play with your food with magic and demonstrate it for everyone on the network.

I have hardly been waiting for this to happen!

Well, you'd have some pretty amazing powers of prediction if you knew turkeys were going to be reanimated.

It hardly requires a seer to divine that he will tamper with our holiday food.

Really? You predicted that specifically?

More that I KNOW UPON WHOM TO PLACE THE BLAME.

You're going to feel pretty silly if someone other than Loki pulls something like this.

Is that a threat?

Oh, come on. I'm a sorceror who worked in theatre for over a year. If I was going to make a threat, I'd make a way better one than that.

Fair enough.

Well, if you insist on turning this into a competition....

I am not engaging you in this line of conversation.

[It would be scorpion wallet all over again.]

Folding while you can? [Smiiiling.] I hardly blame you.

[He is going to have to learn some flesh reconstruction spells with how fiercely he is biting his tongue right now.]

Bite it hard enough and it might come off.

Would you then make that dance?

Possibly.

And this is why you will be learning none of my secrets.

Teach me and I'll not do it.

I cannot take the chance.
