Selina couldn't help but laugh a little. "Very well Mr. Stark. Lead the way."

Hal led Selina to an elevator, taking it up to the top floor. Once they arrived, he dashed them down a hallway to a room labelled 'Stark Suite'. He turned, giving Selina a wink.

"That's my bad," apologized Wanda after a few moments thought. "But it's just been so nice to be able to talk to someone that either isn't a fan or trying to take my soul. I could always erase her memory if it'll make you happy." She figured it may pay to erase Frost's memory while she was at it, just in case... Constantine said, more than a bit annoyed that he had to tell Wanda any of this, "Yeah, it ain't great, but if we're going to protect these people, that means some discretion is required." Damien sat back and watched Lex and Logan partake in a very odd pissing contest, Lex really had no idea what kind of man he had positioned himself against it didn't take much to realize that Lex was trying to assert himself on Logan mentally, just the slightest inkling on what psychic power was. The fact that they were at odds was apparent to everyone with eyes, despite the fact that there we're doing there best to hide it behind personas, pomp and pageantry; animosity is impossible to mask. Out of pure boredom Damien released a small spray of pheromones designed to intensify animosity, hoping to stir the pot a bit more. Logan stood up and walked towards Lex there was hatred in his eyes, "What's the matter with you Lex. Are you really so angry with me for refusing you that you can't even allow me to throw a party without raining on my parade?" |

"Then. Leave. Me. Alone." Logan said to Lex forcefully, "Get out of my life. Stop trying to take my sixteen-year-old ward out on dates. Just stop. You aren't winning. You're just making a fool of ourselves."

"It's not about me, love. It's about making sure that the sheep over there don't view Dr. Strangefate as anything more than a rumor and a conspiracy theory." Constantine said, more than a bit annoyed that he had to tell Wanda any of this, "Yeah, it ain't great, but if we're going to protect these people, that means some discretion is required." said Wanda with a sigh. She gestured towards her new found friend as unobtrusively as possible. "kcigam tuoba tegroF*," she cast with a whisper before doing the same to Lex. * Forget about magick |

She gestured towards her new found friend as unobtrusively as possible. "kcigam tuoba tegroF*," she cast with a whisper before doing the same to Lex. * Forget about magick When Wanda went to cast her spell on Lex the room seemed to pause the expressions on faces went dark and blank. "hehehe Wanda I believe I hand told you would not cast another spell on me, asserting yourself When I meddled in your affair with the fuzzy elf is one thing but to presume to cast a spell to wipe my memory with no provocation..." the scene before shattered into a blank darkness the only light was a figure clad in white walking towards her it was Lex "that must be met with a swift and strong reaction. dont even bother I've muted you and the rest of the room doesn't noticed anything has changed. you may wield magick but i am the greatest telepath to ever live. its incredible who you can manipulate the world when you can control thought itself. I am truly disappointed in you Wanda. I saw such great potential in you. Why do you think I tried to stop you from kissing the gargoyle. You are a strong assertive woman, who remains untouched and un-violated by vulgar male urges. And you look so ravishing in your white "work outfit". But you had to over step your boundaries and presume to toy with my mind." the figure walked up to Wanda and placed his hand on her forehead in that instant Wanda felt nothing but the most indescribably intense pain through out her entire body. The pain was overwhelming like giving birth to a full grown moltres out the wrong hole while having adamantium grafted to her skeleton and acid poured over her body. Lex took his hand away from Wanda's forehead after a few moments that comparatively felt like an eternity in hell to her. "how did I know you ask from the moment you granted me back my power I had you under my illusion, everything you saw and felt thought I knew and I was there in the background, nothing had to come of it, it was just an insurance policy to make sure you could never harm me again if you had happily stay out of my business unless provoked you would have lead a happy blissful life free of my interruption. but you chose in your arrogance to attack my mind of all things nothing is more precious to a telepath than their mind. So this is your punishment Wanda Zatara you will not remember my intrusion into your mind you will now fear and respect my power as you always should have. Next time you cross me you will be reduced to nothing you not be able to speak or move." Lex did the following to Wanda he kept her from fully remembering that Lex has her under his complete hypnosis, and he set another trap in her mind the next time she tries to use magic on Lex. "now I hope you have learned your lesson my dear" the darkness shatters and the room returns to normal none noticing what just happened but Wanda who is feeling the full effect of it. |

The auction finally began, and one of the top valued objects in the bidding was the Alice's Adventures in Wonderland original carving, depicting Alice at the tea party with the Mad Hatter. The bids greatly increased, and Lorina found herself in a bidding battle. Due to Daken's influence, Lorina could feel her aggression rising. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. "I will win this. It's mine."

Lorina looked to Lex and crossed her arms. "I was doing fine on my own, you know."
The competitive bidder knew the reputation of Lex Frost, and gave merely a modest bid.

Lorina sighed and gave in. "Fine fine, go and be charming."
She walked back towards the bar to grab herself another absinthe, looking back worriedly at the auction.

The other bidder gaped at this and backed out. After a few moments Lex was declared the winner of the auction. Lorina came back with an absinthe in hand. "Well, thank you Lex. I'll be sending payment to cover the bid. Maybe you intimidated the other bidder."
She watched the item brought off the stage with glee. Her heart pounded in excitement at finally owning it. Lorina spoke quietly. "Time for tea..."

He smiled .oO(she is a unique person to be sure but her quirks and antics put a real smile on my face not many people in this world can do that.) |

Lorina adjusted her top hat as her gaze moved from the carving to Lex. "Fine I can accept that. And I wouldn't be surprised if it's a trip to McDonald's after that kind of dough spent."
She reached into her matching blue satin purse and pulled out a black business card with her name, number, and a design of a rabbit. "Until then.."

But you've got what you came for I dont see any purpose in staying. Come I dont see any reason I should wait for our date do you?" |

"I will go on this date with you." Lorina smiled at him and took her hand back.
"But not tonight. I have...things to do. I need to bring my new prize piece home. And no, you do not accompany me. And thank you again Lex."
She inclined her head and hurried off towards the man in charge of the auction.

And thank you again Lex."She inclined her head and hurried off towards the man in charge of the auction. Lex couldnt hide his smile and bite his lip a little as he watched Lorina rush off. "oh it was my pleasure" Lex said indirectly to her but mostly to himself. Julian was keeping his distance wanting to talk to Logan but wanting no part of that show down between Logan and Lex. Julian noticed Lex smiling a real smile and was shocked and dumbfounded "my god is that Lex smiling why is Lex... smiling?....run must run.run for your lives. we are all gonna die!" Julian said to know one half under his breath only partially joking. Julian then saw Hal come back into the room a little disheveled. Decided not to pay it mind and approached. "mr stark? I'm Julian Hardy" |
