Apologies for the delay. There were... ever the obstacles to overcome.

We would be delighted by your presence. All are welcomed.

1/2 accidental video lmao

[Please excuse the clatter and the shellphone pointing up at the ceiling. Kaveh dropped the phone in excited gay panic. Do you get this weird sense of deja vu?]

Haitham! Haitham get in here, check your phone, come look, hurry--

[After a moment, Mehrak comes into view! She beep boops and makes a ^_^ face before picking up the shellphone and shutting it back off.]

2/2 text

[empyrean_mirror]

Mehrak: Kaveh can't answer the phone right now! He will respond as soon as he can! ^_^
Mehrak: Scenario: "Clive and Jill are getting married" has been detected.
Mehrak: Loading message: "Congratulations! Please let me know what I can do to help, it would be my honor!"
Mehrak: "P.S. You are getting a paid honeymoon, Jill. I will go mysteriously deaf if you try to argue it at all."
Mehrak: End of prepared message! ^_^

[She is just going to go ahead and say what everyone else is thinking:]

It is about fucking time.

[gruffier]

[ If anyone was going to say it out loud, it should be her. ]

I will be the first to admit the fault falls to me. I was hesitant. But hesitant no longer.

[tilfrosset]

Thank you for your congratulations, Benedikta.

[Surely this is her way of saying so?]

Congratulations, Jill! Oh my goodness, I'm ever so happy for you!

[gruffier]

[ WOW Clive had never seen that sticker before? It's so cute!? ]

Jill has brought mention of your friendship. I thank you for being so kind to her.

[tilfrosset]

Is that a frog? It's quite adorable.

[But no, back to the point of everything!]

Thank you, Zelda. I still have a bit of difficulty believing it's actually happening.

[haveaflare]

Truly a cause for celebration. It would be my honor to attend.

[gruffier]

We would be misplaced without your appearance, Dion. You have done much and more for my family, and I thank you for that.

[tilfrosset]

In that case, we shall make sure to seat you at the table for honored guests.

[Probably closest to the bar.]

I wondered if this would ever happen. We also need a book you an appointment at the barber's, it is long overdue.

[tilfrosset]

We just wanted to take our time with such life changes, Cid. Plus we didn't want to do anything behind other's backs.

Unlike someone I'm familiar with.

[YEAH YOU, DAD. HOW COULD YOU GO AND ELOPE?]

[gruffier]

A barber?

[ Brb pausing to actually consider his appearance for a moment- ]

I... suppose it has been some time.

Congratulations to the both of you on this step in your journey. May it be one of many you share together.

I know naught of wedding customs among those here. Are there any rules of ettiquette to be observed by those who attend?

[tilfrosset]

Honestly, Clive and I don't hold fast to many particulars of civility. I suspect it would be hard to expect any while surrounded by pirates, really.

All we ask for is your presence and no taste-testing of the cake before its served.

[gruffier]

Your kindness is much appreciated.

And as long as you don't plan on breaking anything, our doors are open to you.

[eternalhymn]

Oh! Congratulations!

[Harding and Jill have only spoken briefly, but they have friends in common— and a wedding is always a happy occasion.]

I'll have to think of a good gift.

[gruffier]

Thank you.

Gifts won't be necessary... for me, of course. I'm certain I could put together something for Jill's liking, though.

Congratulations. I am glad you are able to move forward together.

[ And not just because this means the pattern he's been seeing on the shellphone continues to go strong after questioning its validity after Clive left. No, he's truly happy for Jill; she regained Clive and their engagement is still going through, just more delayed than either of them likely expected. ]

[gruffier]

I thank you, Sherlock. Your words are most kind.

I'll make certain the Rift's remain at ease until then.

[indispensable]

[Once again... guess who was bullied into saying something.]

Congratulations once more. Hopefully it'll actually stick this time.

[Yeah he's getting an elbow jab for that one don't worry.]

[gruffier]

[ You comments are always welcomed here!

... Maybe not everywhere, but certainly here! ]

Should the Rifts choose mercy, I intend to remain here for as long as I can, and even further still.

[crack_shots]

[ Though she may not know Clive or Jill, it's a public message and a joyous one that deserves more than a casual glance. ]

Congratulations to both of you! May your union be long and filled with happiness.

[gruffier]

Your words are most appreciated— thank you, kindly.

Our doors are open to all, should you like to attend.

un: feralhumanity

[feralhumanity]

Oh, this is exciting! Congratulations, you two!

I'll definitely be there! I'll even wear a suit for the occasion!

[gruffier]

A suit? Now that's something I'm looking forward to see.

Perhaps Torgal should do that same.

un: midifications

[midifications]

I have your flowers, Jill. Not even gonna ask if you want them, I already know you do. Don't ask how I got them, just know I've had them ready since you asked before.

I'll make sure I find something nice to wear and even scrub extra grime off, promise.

[gruffier]

You know you are always welcomed as you are, Mid.

Though... I am curious about the flowers.

I suppose this would be where I say... about time?
