[Transcript:
Kaveh & Alhaitham
Invite you to share our joy
June 18th
Latrommi (Ignore the fact that it says Eltrut shhh)]

This is Alhaitham.

Kaveh and I are hosting a celebration as detailed above. RSVP with him if you wish to attend so that we can make the necessary arrangements. You may also do the same with me, but note that I have changed my shellphone ID to the one you currently see.

[...and yeah he's just gonna end it there. Eloquent as always, huh?]

[ ANOTHER PARTY................ ]

Congratulations and well wishes to you both.

If there are any preparations you need help with beforehand, I would gladly assist.

[IT'S FOR A GOOD CAUSE, CLIVE]

Thank you!

Honestly, so many people have offered to help, I'm not sure who is doing what, now.

[gruffier]

[ why do you keep trying to drag him into social settings!! you know his brooding demeanor is not fit for the public eye!!

Alas, it is for this crew members, so— ]

Than it seems you have all your basis covered. Too many more and I fear that would cause more harm than good.

But regardless. I am glad for you both.

will it stop working at some point?

Congrats!!!!

Where's the gift list?? I gotta figure out what to get for you guys!

There isn't one. We decided on keeping it simple.

[Plus if there is something they really want they'd probably go and get it themselves anyway. Or make it, in the case of Kaveh.]

[ramuhs]

[Just watching amused.]

I'm sure the cooks in the crew wouldn't mind pitching in if you really needed it. But if you wanted my own personal services...

Do you have an officiant?

[book2thehead]

I could get tired of it someday if you keep treating me. Or you might catch me when I've already eaten, or simply not in the mood!

[empyrean_mirror]

Yes...but you said you'd answer your phone before you fell asleep, Haitham.

[He says this, but Kaveh's lightly scritched at Alhaitham's scalp as he does, so who's really encouraging this laziness here?]

[indispensable]

[Alhaitham hums for a moment, as if thinking about it even though what he really does is to tilt his head up to further entourage that hand.]

I might be persuaded into it with a kiss.

[Yes, he is being this shameless.]

[empyrean_mirror]

Shameless. Lean up a little?

[Because it'll be more comfortable when Kaveh leans down to kiss him and reward this bad behavior.]

[legendofthelion]

[She was there for some of those things.]

No way am I missing it. We'd be having words if I wasn't invited.

[legendofthelion]

You're a lot more confident about this than before. [From "I don't deserve him" and all. Does Kaveh even remember that.]

I'm happy for you two. Oh but how much do we need to dress up? I've got to do some shopping.

[empyrean_mirror]

...He told me the answer before he even knew it himself. Even I'm not enough of an idiot to ignore that forever, Dehya.

[I mean, he could have. He still doesn't deserve this man. But--he's tired of fighting it, too.]

Now, my answer to that question depends entirely on how much you enjoy getting dressed up.

[empyrean_mirror]

You don't have to bring anything but yourself! We'll be glad to have you.

And you can bring a friend, too.

[empyrean_mirror]

I know it's not your favorite thing in the world, but I appreciate it nonetheless.

I suppose it'll be a much quieter affair for you, won't it?

[:3c]

[empyrean_mirror]

I've always thought of myself as an excellent problem solver, Heizou.

[empyrean_mirror]

Oh, that is very kind! To be honest, I've sort of lost track who is helping with what...

But we'd be happy to have you regardless!

[empyrean_mirror]

an officiant...no, we were thinking we'd ask at Latrommi.

Wait, can you do that?

[you're neither a priest or a government official???]

[book2thehead]

You're also quite incorrigible.

[indispensable]

[Kaveh's response is enough to tell Alhaitham that he's won here, and he shows as much with a quirk of his lips before he shifts to lean up as asked so that he can have his requested kiss. And if it lingers for far longer than what a single kiss should take, his hand coming up to rest at the back of Kaveh's neck to keep him close... well, nobody else is here to see, or know.]

[indispensable]

Good. [Dehya is one of the few who Alhaitham would like to see in the event.] Let me know if you have any preference for food. A good part of it should be familiar to you, but we'll do our best to accommodate for the majority.

[Can you believe people here can't eat spice, Dehya. The travesty.]

[empyrean_mirror]

Stubborn as an ox is how most people phrase it.

[empyrean_mirror]

[Kaveh's certainly in no position to call him out on it, only really pulling away when the angle really makes his back complain.]

You are a menace.

[indispensable]

Mmn. You say that, but I don't hear you complaining.

[Totally gonna call Kaveh out on that. Complete with smile and a mischievous gleam in his eyes.]
