Who: Anita Blake and Loki Laufeyson (MCU), with possible appearances from Sirius and mini-Loki.
When: New Year's Eve
Where: All over town.
What: Win a Date With Anita Blake (Courtesy of Sirius Black)
[It was oddly ironic, Anita thought, that she was putting a hell of a lot more effort into her appearance for this particular date than she had for more legitimate outings in the past. Of course, if her actions tonight were to obtain the desired results, she would have to give off the appearance of having a wonderful time and make the whole thing look genuine, which was likely going to be harder than it sounded. She had never been a hearts and flowers kind of girl. She had dated, sure, but she was bad when it came to things like being doe-eyed and devoted, which was something she was going to have to work around tonight.
After all, she had to make a statement. Sirius meant well, of course, but after tonight he would see that pushing her into the arms of strange men was not the best way to cement their friendship or cover up any of the awkwardness that had threatened to settle between them. He was so keen on her finding someone to bat her eyes at? Fine. She would just go ahead and choose someone he didn't approve of -- to the extreme.
Bonus points for the opportunity to get some intelligent conversation out of the evening, though. Plus, Loki's penchant for mischief meant that she had an incredibly competent partner in crime for the evening.
As eight o'clock neared, she gave herself another quick once-over in the mirror. The dress was far shorter than what she would have usually cared for, but it would annoy the right people. Perfect.]
