WHO || Vi, Luthir, Wynn, Jack, Myri, Finnick, Francesca, Val'drin, Spike, Dumage, Felicity, Gus, Astrid, Fred Jr., Kat, Gar, Buffy, Rafael, Elena, Alaric, Rose, Dimitri, Aedan, Dovan, Lan, Zero, Koraith, Mark, Dawn, Archer, Des, Zarad, Alex, Faith, Faye, Sean, Anastacia [closed]
WHAT || Vi and Luthir's wedding
WHERE || Chelsea Physic Garden, London
WHEN || June 6th, evening
HOW || Actionspam

Now officially Knighted, Vi exchanges her ceremonial armor for a wedding gown, and the guests head into London to gather at the Chelsea Physic Garden.  The evening is warm and clear, and the flowers in full bloom, chairs set up on the main lawn with name tags on them for people to find their seat.  Gentle Elvish music plays everyone in, and at the front of stands an arbor covered in wisteria.  It's a remarkably peaceful setting, enough to dispel further some of the grimness of the past few days and create an atmosphere of smiles and warmth.    It seems to reinforce what Luthir has been telling Vi all along: that maybe now more than ever, this is the sort of thing they need, in order to remember what they're all fighting for.

table five ❧ des, zarad, alex, faye, faith, sean, anastacia

[fornicator]

[ zarad is just going to let des handle the introductions since he knows ... some of you at least. ]

[nothingsodivine]

[what introductions. des doesn't know anyone at this table except Anastacia and vaguely faith.]

If I didn't know any better, I'd think Vi wanted me to meet new people. [he smirks at Ana.]

[reallywicked]

[Faye is pretty stoked about this table tbh. Her date is hot. Des' date is hot. Des is okay (sorry Des). And Sean ain't half bad either. She owes that bride a damn drink later for this set up.]

Hi, I'm Faye. [She says, gaze locked on Zarad because hello.]

1/2

[silvermaid]

It's certainly never hurt anyone. [ ana is a fucking vision with her 30+ disguise check. faye has one thing right: this table is surrounded by some out of this world levels of hotness. ] Des, this is my daughter Faith, Sean, Faye, and... I don't believe I've had the pleasure. [ who u alex ]

[fornicator]

[ zarad grins back at faye, and his unfairly attractive smile only really makes him harder to look away from. ] Zarad Lorel.

[imgonnadie]

[ yay sean's two favorite ladies. ...and his lady's mom... you know what, that works too. anastacia is the chilliest of ladies. he swans up to the table with drinks for faye, faith, anastacia and himself. because he is a champ with 1960s manners still. ] Hey.

[ambitionist]

Alex. [he gives Ana a little wave. he didn't call des being gay but man he is jelly of his date ngl.]

[nothingsodivine]

[if des is offended by all this objectifying of his boyfriend, he says nothing.] Des.

[he gives faith a wink. a non-sexy one god.] Heard a lot about you, kiddo.

[moonheart]

[ faith looks gorgeous too with her 17 in a bright bold pink dress. she perks up, looking over at des with excitement in her eyes. ] You're the one Mom was telling me about! You knew another aasimar of Sehanine.

[nothingsodivine]

[ZERO TO MOOD KILLER. EXCELLENT WORK FAITH. Des looks pained.] I did, yeah.

[imgonnadie]

[ also sean looks adorable, if not disheveled as he takes his seat next and faith and glances over at her and her mom. ] Your great aunt... thing?

[ambitionist]

[alex is looking fly as hell with a disguise 26 btw. JUST THOUGHT U SHOULD KNO. this is boring. he's going back to making bedroom eyes at zarad.]

[reallywicked]

[Look this table is hot okay. Faye got an 18 and Lila helped her pick an outfit so it's super fly. I linked it earlier. I'm on my phone now tho. Also she might be putting her hand on Alex's thigh. While still looking at Zarad. This could get weird...er.]

[moonheart]

[ faith nods to sean ] Yeah, the one Wynn told us about. [ she seems to at least realize THIS MIGHT BE A DELICATE SUBJECT, ish. ] Sorry, I just... I've never met any others, outside of the ones I grew up with.

You're the one who knows the unicorn, then.

[fornicator]

[ zarad smirks in des' direction at that, eyes glinting ] He does lead an interesting life like that.

[nothingsodivine]

Interesting's a good word for it.

[he grabs zarad's chin in a gesture that's familiar enough to suggest he does it all the time, but that smug bitch expression suggests he's half doing it this second to pee on faye and alex's hopes and dreams.

and to possibly distract himself from crippling angst.]

I mean I showed up here with you.

[welcome to descant terms of endearment.]

[reallywicked]

[Des, she is already here on a date that's not a date with a guy who isn't that into her. Do you really think a chin grab is gonna deter her???

Gonna just creep her hand up Alex's thigh. No big deal.]

...You know a unicorn?

[ambitionist]

[he doesn't make any overly obvious reactions to faye feeling him up under the table. (will save 16) he also ... makes no apparent attempts to stop her. B) but he's also undeterred by des's attempt to piss on his territory, so. ] I didn't even know unicorns are real.

[nothingsodivine]

[yeah tbf des has actually forgotten where he was going with that. zarad just has these gorgeous blue eyes. and now he's sort of... lost in them.]

Why does that surprise everyone? You're at an Elvish wedding right now.

[graveflowers]

They're the national animal of Scotland! [ HI Y'ALL IT'S THE BRIDE. and she comes up behind alex to give him a kiss on the cheek. she escaped to steal cake and took a detour. ] Hello, hero. [ she glances at faye and there is no other way to describe her expression but, "you go get it girl". such pride in a girl she's never met. ] Hi everyone! Hello special boyfriend shaped guest. [ that would be zarad if you're not fluent in vi. ]

[fornicator]

[ yeah, well those gorgeous blue eyes had been raking across des' face in a way that was positively scandalous before the bride comes up all interrupting cow, and then he turns a smile towards her, leaning back in his seat and draping one arm casually across the back of des' chair. ]

And the lady of the hour appears. [ he extends his free hand out towards her ] Zarad.

[graveflowers]

[ shake shake shake. ] Vi. Violet. Violet Reedhym, that's me, that's my new name: Violet Reedhym. But call me Vi, you're so fucking pretty, I'd hate to punch your hideously beautiful face. God, you're really gorgeous up close, your face is like the reason faces were invented, I just want to slap it. Or kiss it, I don't know, I can't decide, I'm very conflicted. There's an existential crisis happening right now. You can totally kiss the bride.

[nothingsodivine]

[holy shit, vi. did you even breathe once...]

She's usually so quiet and shy.

[ambitionist]

[SNORT.] When? [he is v proud of her btw. get it gurl.]

[fornicator]

Well, I know which one of those activities I generally prefer. [ it's... probably not getting slapped. maybe. #wejustdontknow

his eyes glance over towards faye and alex, and then towards the table as if he can see right through it and knows exactly what's going on under there, you crazy kids. his lip quirks up further as if the thought entertains him greatly, but then he focuses back on vi. ] But I think the groom should probably have the honor tonight. [ and he'll toss a wink at des just to assure him that this is all just friendly, flirty banter, bb. he is probably not going to kiss all your friends. ]
