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?]

...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.

[legendofthelion]

[Most people still wait longer than a week to get married. But she's already got the idea these two are stubborn.]

I'll even help with the makeup if you want. Just maybe nothing TOO expensive? The money here is good but not that good.

[empyrean_mirror]

[Most people probably don't already live together and do 80% of all activities as a unit, either.]

I can cover that, but I won't say no to a shopping trip either way.

[legendofthelion]

How much you still need to get? This is pretty quick for a wedding.

[empyrean_mirror]

the seamstress promised me she could get the suits done, but I'll need to find a good substitute for henna, or fish henna berries out of the rift myself. I need to find catering and also a good place to order a cake--apparently that's more traditional here--but the people on Latrommi said they could handle arranging for most of the venue.

Ah, and I need to finish the rings, but that's almost done anyway. So really, I just need to find accessories I like and whatever ones I can convince Alhaitham to put up with for a day.

[legendofthelion]

That still sounds like a lot. Let me look into the henna. There's gotta be something similar.

[empyrean_mirror]

I hope so. It's silly, but even as a kid I used to dream about the designs I'd have drawn on my hands.

Well, I guess in this case I'll be drawing them on Alhaitham's hands?

[legendofthelion]

Wouldn't you both be getting something anyway?

[empyrean_mirror]

Well, yes, but I can't draw on my own hands, can I? So I'd be drawing on his.

[legendofthelion]

But that doesn't have anything to do with the designs on YOUR hands. Right?

Shouldn't Alhaitham's be his own idea?

[Let him integrate sacabambaspis into his design.]

[empyrean_mirror]

...Yes.

[He is going to find a way to make those little fuckers gorgeous.]

[legendofthelion]

Soooo are you gonna let him draw on your hands or you need someone to handle you.

[empyrean_mirror]

oh god

i'm gonna have to give him strict instructions

[legendofthelion]

You know you have ways to make this easier for yourself.

[Like, ask for help.]

[empyrean_mirror]

but it's more romantic if he does my hands too...

[Dehya he's hopeless.]

[Just giving Kaveh a look here because of course he was going to do henna on your hands?? Why did you think he wouldn't??]

[empyrean_mirror]

[He knows? That's the plan??? He just forgot about his designs thinking about yours!!!!]

[indispensable]

[Well time to correct that mistake then, senior. Chop chop, those henna designs won't actualize themselves.]
