Masks 2

The real Lux hug was happily accepted this time. It was visible, and came with more than the usual number of limbs! "Oh, I know you. You've been ready for this for some time, Candy. I know you'll do us all proud!"

"So, how did you like my sister? Took on my mask for her career and she even beat me to the reveal! Grr, right? Jeanette drives her crazy, but I think that's what happens when you put two thieves together..." She laughed. Lux didn't sound mad at all, and Candy got the impression from her tone that she cared for her sister deeply.

"The outfits? Amazing. Imagine that it's like your hair..." She put up a hand to Candy's tech-dyed locks, and copied the coloration onto her own stubble. "...Only every aspect of your appearance. Don't even have to be restrained to physical reality." So saying, her clothes and appearance underwent a rapid series of changes, from high fashion to armor, to moon-beams and stardust, to a cubist sort of rendering of her entire form that couldn't possibly occupy physical space, and then back to herself in an armored dress.

"So! What kind of solo adventures have you been getting up to?"

She wanted to talk with Candy for a while, just chatting and hearing how she'd been. She'd let her get back to the party afterwards, though--with a mystery. "You know...there is someone else you could meet, here, at the party...How do you feel about doing some detective work? After I clear it with them, of course." She grinned, having proposed a fun party activity for her honorary niece.

And for her other sister.
