deathsmajesty: Artistic Credit Coming Soon (Striding - Descent)
After seeing what this nonsense had done to her store yesterday, Liliana had decided that enough was enough. Did she particularly like being a shopkeep for Nichol Bolas' artifact box store retail chain? No! (And boy did she hate that she knew those words now!) But it was still hers and therefore nobody had the right to touch it, never mind turn it into some kind of cheap novelty shop.

But it was fine. She had a plan. Liliana Vess always had a plan. It would have been easier if she'd had the Infinite Consortium's stock at her fingertips, but no matter. It wasn't like she was lacking in her own artifacts, either.

Including, for example, this Shadowblood Egg currently held in her hand. "This should be plenty," she murmured, studying the heavy thing. But...perhaps a backup. Just in case." She glanced around her vault, looking for just the right thing - it wasn't her only stash, of course, but it was the most extensive. And going to one of her others meant planeswalking elsewhere, which would be a drain on her energy--

And that's when she saw it. The perfect backup. Definitely to be used only as a backup and packed with far more ginger care than even the delicate and fragile egg, but...sometimes you had to be prepared to be a little bit extra when the opportunity called for it.

[Establishy!]
deathsmajesty: Katie McGrath as Morgana from Merlin (Uncertain - Glance)
"Why won't they just leave?" Liliana demanded of the alien beside her as they hunkered down in a booth, trying to subtly keep an eye on the TV-headed creeps milling about outside the restaurant. They seemed loathe to actually come into the restaurant, quite likely due to the staff's absolute unwillingness to tolerate nonsense, but they weren't leaving, either. Just standing there, holding up various reward offers towards the glass like that might entice either person to come out.

Of all the places Liliana had intended to visit today, this Waffle Hut wasn't one of them, and of all the people she intended to see, Stark was most definitely not one, either. But they'd both ended up getting menaced by an ever-growing crowd of TV heads and had ducked into the one place that had offered sanctuary and, well...now here they were. Sharing a sticky booth, getting stared at by the crowd outside and utterly ignored by the staff within.

[For said glowy alien, please]
