WHO || Everyone! [ota]
WHAT || Shenanigans.
WHERE || Anywhere in the castle, surrounding environs, London, Andres Isle, etc!
WHEN || October
HOW || Actionspam

[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of the first half of the month. Because not everyone is into parties, ok.

Also, following the promotion and squiring parties at the beginning of the month, Wynn will be taking any willing Knights back to Andres Isle to further reconstruction efforts there.   There's plenty to be done - and an election to gear up for, to find out who will rule Andres Isle!

You are encouraged to start your own threads and tag around, and feel free to threadjack into any on-going threads that aren't specified as 'closed' in the subject lines since people can enter into rooms even in the middle of what's going on. WE ARE BIG ON THREAD-JACKING HERE. You can also specify 'single thread', meaning you want only one response for all participants, rather than multi-thread, where a number of different scenes/threads can be done as replies to the top prompt.]

[Myri has been watching Mark, seeing the way he speaks to the people of Anders. It's a bit like watching him grow into a king right before her eyes. But in the first few days of October, she finds him.]

You know... [She says, approaching him with a gentle smile just as he finishes a conversation with a local family.] I only ever knew one king. And he never dared to do so much as leave his castle, let alone strike up a conversation with a commoner at random. [Her smile grows, practically bursting with pride.]

I was... hoping to ask you something, if you have the time?

[nosdacariad]

My father always said that your subjects should be like family. [ that's all he has to say on that though. myri knows just how often he used the term interchangeably when he was hiding the truth. ] Anything.

[witchwoman]

[She just can't help but smile brightly at him when he talks about his parents and the lessons they taught him. But she has to focus on the matter at hand.]

Finnick and I were hoping to get the wedding planned. And well- I thought it might be nice to have a bit of a celebration here during all the rebuilding. Something for the knights and the people who live here to use to take their mind off all the work left to do. [She needs to just spit it out.] So what I wanted to ask... Could we use your palace? For the ceremony and the reception?

[nosdacariad]

[ he watches her for a moment in surprise, before he reaches out and takes both her hands, giving them a squeeze. ] Myri, not only can you - I insist.

[witchwoman]

[Her whole face lights up, a slight bounce given on the balls of her feet as she grips his hands back tightly.]

Oh, really? [She bites down on her bottom lip, nearly brimming over with joy that this is all going so well and falling into place perfectly.]

Thank you, Mark. And you have to invite everyone. Nobles and Shadowkind alike. Anyone who wants to come and celebrate with us.

[nosdacariad]

Maybe I should make it a national holiday.

[witchwoman]

[She laughs, shaking her head and reaching up to give him a playful shove.]

Nothing like that. I just... I want to help remind people that Andres doesn't need to be a place of fear. And I want to remind myself of that too.

[It's still hard for her some days. The nightmares still linger, but this is important to her. Helping Mark has always been important to her.]

[nosdacariad]

How could I say no to that?

[witchwoman]

[She's just too excited for words, so she rushes to close the little distance between them and hugs him close.]

Thank you.

[nosdacariad]

[ he wraps her up tightly, grinning widely ] Whatever I can do, you just let me know.

[witchwoman]

Letting me use your home is more than enough. [She pauses.] And maybe a dance.

[nosdacariad]

Now that one wasn't up for debate.
