[OPEN] WEDDINGS!

Who| OPEN to all. Starters in the comments!
What| Marius and Cosette's garden wedding
Where| Aphrodisia Garden
When| 28th December, evening
Warnings/Notes| Dubious consent of the garter toss kind



On that breezy and festive night, the Aphrodisia Garden blazes radiantly enough to blot out the light of the crescent moon and the stars.

The wedding ceremony itself progresses without a hiccup; first is the procession, and then Maximus escorts the bride down the aisle in her blue-and-floral wedding gown; Marius ends up crying a little; vows are exchanged; a kiss is made; a union in love promised never to be broken. And soon, the reception begins.

Yellow-white fairy lights curl and twinkle around the trunk of every tree in sight, while bright bulbs encased in glass jars hang from their branches. To one side is the plentiful buffet table, the succulent aroma of meats and fruit wafting through its surrounding area. Crystal chandeliers spaced at about a meter apart shedding their light onto the meticulously-plated food and intricately-designed dessert towers interspersed in-between white-gold candelabrums. Any empty space on the white-clothed table has been covered with the same glass jars that hang above the guest's heads, a solitary candle burning brightly inside each.

The circular guest tables seat eight persons each, the tablecloth woven with dark-green moss. A thin trunk wrapped in twinkle lights protruding from the center of the table and ending with a bouquet of flowers, fruit, and leaves serves as the centerpiece. More flowers of varied colors and sizes are scattered underneath the table, giving off a mild, floral scent that carries throughout the rest of the garden.

On the opposite end of the garden is a small, man-made river with a bridge arching over it. The lights of the festivities reflect on its rippled surface, seemingly transforming it into a river of gold.

Stare.

"No. I don't."
casaerotica13: (wait)

... Someone probably caught the damn thing by now while Gabriel stared down at the girl.

"What-... Then what's the point?"

"To look interested in the practice. But do you think I look ready to marry? After all..."

Someone probably did.

"...I'm only 13."

"But... Why even-?" Why did you have to confuse him so much? That wasn't even right.

"I'm a guy and I wanted to catch the damn thing!"

"Because..." She flipped her hair with a casual flick of her hand. "I had no real choice in the matter."

All creatures shall make merry upon pain of death, after all. Even if it wasn't spoken out loud, it was obvious to Homura that it was the point of the evening. And she knew, also, her death in this place - her true death - would allow for certain others from her world, those more piable, more selfless and willing to help others, to take her place.

That was a possibility which she simply wouldn't allow.

"I'm sure you'll come to understand what I mean."
casaerotica13: (turned)

"... Are you emo?"

He just stared down at the demented child. Yes, he got the gist of what she was saying and it was entirely possible that she had been in this place much longer than him, which was saying something in regards to her age, but.

Still.

"...Excuse me?"
casaerotica13: (dr sexy)

[personal profile] casaerotica13 2014-01-05 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
"You are emo, aren't you?"

[personal profile] iflipmyhair 2014-01-05 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
Stare.

"I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about."
casaerotica13: (welp)

[personal profile] casaerotica13 2014-01-05 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"Then you are before your time, my child."

Oh and look, he missed the bouquet because of your black eyeliner, Evanescence crap.

"... Maybe if you actually tried to have fun, you would."

[personal profile] iflipmyhair 2014-01-05 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Silly angel, eyeliner's for emos!

"I don't need to have fun. My purpose here is clear."
casaerotica13: (cmon now)

[personal profile] casaerotica13 2014-01-06 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
"What's the point if you're not having fun?" Then the bad guys win.

[personal profile] iflipmyhair 2014-01-06 03:48 pm (UTC)(link)
A pause.

"Self-preservation."
casaerotica13: (r u srs)

[personal profile] casaerotica13 2014-01-07 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
Good answer, but uh. "And you can't do that while enjoying yourself, because...?"
