"So let me get this straight. Ajak chose Sersi to be the Prime Eternal, she's dead, Deviants are back and they absorbed Ajak's powers?"
"Pretty much."
"Ikaris! How does it feel to know that you're no longer mother's favorite?" I smirked patting him on the back and Sersi stifled a laugh.
"Vena, I am this close to throwing you off a building if you don't shut up. And do you seriously have to get all dressed up?" Ikaris scoffed and I kicked his shin. "Stilettos, Vena! Stilettos!"
"It's called enhancing your already good looks and being confident, Ikaris. You should try it sometime." I shrugged and looked at him up and down. "On second thought, maybe not. You'd never pull it off."

"Have you seen Kingo's movies, Vena?" Sersi asked pulling me away from Ikaris.
"Who do you think he takes to the premiers? I've been his date since the first one!"
...
"Hello, I am Karun Patel, Kingo's valet. Its truly an honor to be in the presence of the great Eternals."
"Karun! I missed you!"
"Miss Vena, it's an honor to see you again." Karun smiled and I pulled him into a tight hug.
"It's my friends from college and my favorite date! Looking as amazing as ever, Aphrodite."
"And it's my favorite Bollywood star!" I yelled back as Kingo picked me up and spun me around.
"Perfect timing! Welcome to the set of 'Shandaar Dastaane Ikaris'. I am playing you." Kingo told Ikaris with a huge grin. "Do you like the costume? Druig said that the one I did of him was tacky."
"It was missing sass, Kingo. You know you can't embody Druig without the sass pouring off his veins."
"We need to talk." Ikaris butted once Kingo put me down.
"Tell the director I have notes for him."
"We need to talk in private." Sprite said pointing to Karun.
"Oh Karun, he's worked for me for 50 years. I trust him completely. Actually, when we first met, he thought I was a Vampire, and he tried to stake me through the heart." Kingo shrugged walking towards his tent with an arm around me. "I was thinking for this premiere, you and I should match! We could wear some blue and black-"
"Kingo! This is important." I said pushing him away and he frowned. "Deviants are back... Ajak's dead."
"D-deviants?"
"We don't know how many there are. You need to come with us." Ikaris said placing a hand on his shoulder.
Kingo turned to me with tears pricking his eyes and I nodded softly holding his hand.
