Loki smiled as he laid eyes on the weapon, no it didn't look like a rifle, Sol, it didn't even remind him of a fire arm, but alien Ceremonial Weapons would be, well, alien. the He examined the Uniform, a very bright, flash, but not ostentatious presentation. The man looked like the Kind of Guard he had envisioned, so he was quiet pleased, "That works" he said.
Next, Loki's eyes fell on the floating mask, the creases in the face, the dead on stare, Loki nodded, "My method of speech will have to be rather curt and less gilded, but i think i can Manage."
Loki smiled, "no, i wish to be quiet visible my friend."

Terent nodded, "Okay then." He shrugged, and the face was transferred to Loki's. "And now dahhhling, how would ye like yer clothes to be lookin' like?" Terent joked, making his voice sound like some odd mixture of his normal accent and some French fashion designer or something of the sort. It was really humorous to listen to. "Because we 'ave some blue, or maybe some of zee red." He nodded, swathes of fabric appeared in the air and Terent's own outfit seemed to change slightly, military forms of identification hidden on his jacket, and it seemed to miraculously grow sleeves, making it look much different, actually. He crossed his arms as he awaited Loki to voice what might be a respectable outfit for the particular event. Because to be honest... he wasn't sure about such matters in a place like this.

Loki looked at the soldier and nodded, "i assume something like his? it works, but i would suggest that we place some sort of insignia on the sleves, a row of rings maybe, three irridium, to show the emperor that I'm Marquee, i think that will be effective as a follower of a Prince."
Loki looked around the Plaza, of the torrist who had gathered, nto a single one of them seemed to have any interset in what was happening, as if they thought the group of strang people where simply holograms. "convient" he said, smieling. "What eles is on the list before we march on the Palace?"

Terent nodded, a similar uniform appearing on Loki, some kind of marking on the shoulder, a rectangle with some odd sort of writing and underneath that, there was a shiny metallic symbol, some kind of officer's rank. The wonderful thing was that Terent got to be as origional as he wanted with this. "Lastly, I would think we'd want people to know that there's a foreign monarch in town... since with the more knowlege of yourself there is... the more power you'd have in a situation. What's a good way to get yourself known around here suttle-ly and legally. We don't want to break laws just yet... atleast nothing too obvious."

Loki's eyes went narrow and he scratched the back of his head as he looked up into the sky above the buildings as the clouds of winter rolled in from over the sea to the west. He saw his sleeve go right though his face and then smiled, distracted. then he got the better and continued to think. A split second later he dropped his hand and smiled at Terrent, "We could go the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, requesting an audience with the emperor to facilitate official diplomatic recognition. I think that would a be a good guise." Loki's head moved to his left side, as if another idea had hit him with the force of a sonic charge, "or, we could just go to the Imperial Palace and request it directly of the Emperors' Minister of Foreign Affairs, in all likelihood, he's there right now. It shouldn't be too difficult, as, if your assessment of the Emperor is correct, he'll want anyone to come and acknowledge him, and maybe even bow down to him." Loki smiled again, "This will be easier than i thought."

A small creature made itself known from atop Terent's head, a gecko-like creature with transluscent wings on it's back, it stared boredly at Loki and opened it's little mouth wide as it yawned, "Mraaaaaaaaaaawwwaarrr...", after it's long little croak, it made it's way, almost burrowing into Terent's hair and hiding from sight.
Terent nodded, "Smitty says he likes the idea... and that he wants us to keep it down so he can sleep... but yeah, I think it's a pretty good idea- you lead the way." Terent looked at the guard that had been produced and smiled, this should be plenty fun.

"Smitty..." Loki said, then he gave a sharp exhalation of breath that sounded slightly humored, and he smiled, "Cute name. looks like the mascot for Hyperia's fighter corps." then he looked out at the street, "we head south three blocks,: he said, not facing Terrent, "and we will reach the EMRS, Elevated Mono-rail System, station. From there, we can take it to Avenue and then walk the half mile to reach gates of the Palace grounds, from there, we will probably be on the Emperor's private monorail system." Loki then turned and his glance sharpened as his eyes narrowed, not threatening, but accessing, "You're not human, what do you call your race?" he asked.

"I am an elf..." Terent spoke slowly, his mind still assesing the information it had just recieved and the question was kind of making him stumble, he didn't know if Loki was just curious or there was a specific reason for the questioning, to keep him ready when they reached thier destination or something. Terent's respirator hissed slightly as he breathed, he was kind of wondering if they'd need money for all this transportation they'd be taking. His ears drooped at the side of his head, this was turning to be quite the eventful day, wasn't it?

Loki's eyes widened, then he shook his head, "ah, we cant go in as 'elves' that blows our cover immediately. No one knows what an elf looks like, but they do know that elves don't exist... We need another species name." he thought for a moment, then held back a laugh and grinned, "I've not been at the Academy long, but i hear a few people talk about "Vulcans" and the way they describe them, they look an awful bit like you. The word is no where in our myth, our history, or popular culture, so we could probably use the term to great success." He then smiled, seeing Terrent's Distress from the fallout on his train of thought, "if you are wondering about the price of transport, don't worry. Just thank Sol for Imperial Socialism!"

Terent looked up at Loki, "Yeah, because tha conceept o' elves is absolutely redi'ulous! Of course they don't exist!" he sounded somehat annoyed at the concept that he, and his people didn't exist... it was kinda insulting. "If elves existed, then we'd all 'ave ta bae a bit loose in tha 'ead, wouldn't we? Even though I'm standin' right 'ere!" he narrowed his eyes, "Of course, because if it were true and I really am an elf than I must be a looney, eh?" Terent asked, "Are ye sayin' that I'm not of elvin' blood, boy?" he asked, his slender, pointed ears twitching slightly from irritation. - Terent's elfness
- Terent's height

Servaeri bastards of language! "Thats not what i meant! This is a complete different universe than the on the school is in. There are no actual elves in this one, but there is in its popular culture. I'm not saying you don't exist, i can see you and this magic you've been wielding defiantly proves your exist! Its just we must be mindful of the way the culture is so we don't end up laughed out the court or thrown in the assylum." Loki sighed heavily, hoping what he ment got across.

"And I'm a wee bit sure that if I made the slightest attempt tae prove that I was a genuine elven, then they'd blame it on some science or another, am I right?" Terent seemed to be formulating some side mission of proving to this world that elves did infact exist. Which might prove to be quite a dangerous side mission to have at the moment. "Shall we get started, then?" He asked, already started walking out of the alley and started heading south, on his way to the palace.

Loki thought about if a moment as he scurried up to fall into step behind Terent, as an aid certainly would. "no." Loki said after he had caught up, "They would most likely just throw you in he Asylum. Though i guess you could prove that you were, in fact, and elf if you wanted to say that they had been visiting Sol for Millenia...but that sparks some questions like 'why didn't you contact us earlier?' and the like" Loki shrugged, "I guess i just became enamored with the idea of going as vulcans, and i apologize that i insulted you." Loki smiled as the biting winds of winter cut though Capital, it was going to be one hell of a storm.

Terent nodded, "Very well... perhaps we could simply introduce ourselves to be as from Virisea, my 'omeland. It might be a tad easier to keep our lies as close to tha truth as 'umanly possible, though I think your homeland might be a wee bit more well known around 'ere." (I like dropping the H in Terentfs speech) Terent thought of it to be a lovely idea, being called a Virisean again, for the first time in over three hundred years was bone-chilling, but not quite in a good way. Virisea was the land Terent no short of dreaded, but nonetheless, he had carried the title 'Prince of Virisea' for quite the longest time... Until of course a rather unfortunate turn of events, but that had nothing to do with the current situation. "What'd ye think of tha?" he inquired, looking around the city with an official look on his face, for such a short man, the way he carried himself demanded respect. Terent had quite the experience in making yourself look royal. To be honest, Terent was having his ass iced off at the current moment, considering the fact that the sleeves on his jacket were tricks with the light and provided no safety from the cold air, but Terent had had worse... but the summer uniform he was in reality wearing was terrible for the current situation.
Following in suit behind the two was the guard that Terent had conjured up, silent and with a deadly gleam in his eyes, he watched everyone around them, to see if there were any threats to His Majesty's health and well being.

Loki Blushed. "I hadn't thought of that, I confess that i thought you primitive in a way I guess, I guess thats the Curse of Imperialism in many ways. You're obviously not, and i see that now. let us hope everyone Else does, otherwise...we may have a repeat of what we did to races like the Gerzo." Loki followed on, his voice falling silent as his expression turned to one of embarrassment and shame. His somber face moved from the path in front of him off to the left several times, examining sites he had seen often, and then back to the pavement and the way a head.. he'd live his high school Career here, he'd see all of it...but he still couldn't' help himself but look...weather it was not to look at the man he had insulted or a sense of Nostalgia that he knew he had, after being deployed for so long...he really couldn't say. He had a feeling though, it was both.
