Video W/ Captions - UN: Runeseeker & UN: Idoloflove

[onerthes]

(OOC: Vira-Lorr is purple and Minako is blue)

[The Video feed started with Vira-Lorr and Minako Aino in Vira-Lorr's living room. It was small, just a bit cozy and currently the three-eyed seer was draped up close to her fiance, positively beaming as she started the post off.

Below, at the bottom of the screen? The words appeared in a text format. Vira-Lorr had suggested it, in case any of the palebloods they knew might have lost their hearing.]

Hello everyone. After a few things we noticed, Minako and I decided to nudge up the date of our wedding just a teensy bit. We just can't trust Trench to behave itself, so we dare not risk October and ... well, I think a few of you might have noticed some problems with some of your senses. So we wanted to make sure nothing else happened beforehand. Just in case. Minako, do you want to tell them?

[Minako currently was showing like she hadn't had any sense missing whatsoever, but that was far from the fact. It just helped with the other being close to her to know where she was and where to turn to. Doesn't mean she knows which way she is meant to be facing though. She could take a guess based on body position though. So currently she was looking over to her fiancee briefly.]

I thought we were going to announce together? Though if you want me to say it I will be more than happy to. You know I love a good announcement after all.

[The fact that she was in this state worried Vira-Lorr a little. She'd been without senses in the past, so she could only imagine what Minako was dealing with right then. Still, it made her feel a lot better that she was able to smile like this. Grinning over at her, she rested her forehead against the other to help guide her facing when she turned it a little with a gentle nudge towards the camera.]

You tell them the big news, and I'll tell them the date and place. That way we're sharing the fun.

[Minako felt like she had said something about it a couple months back, but then again even if she had she just enjoys being able to say it honestly. Mostly because it had never been something she had ever expected.

Bright and bubbly as ever Minako through a couple of misses managed to clap her hands together finally.]

Okay~! As I might have mentioned a while back there is a super special romantic day that isn't Valentine's Day happening. A wedding~ Vira's and mine to be exact.

[She did her part at least and the smile honestly wasn't going to be leaving her face anytime soon.]

That's right. And, well thanks to some recent wiggles? We decided to give it a week and not chance waiting longer. October's October, and we're not sure what the rest of the month may bring. So, we're setting the date for the Ninth of Never Mind's month. So, the ninth of this month!

[She reached back and coughed, her cheeks coloring a little as she smiled in a very self-aware sort of way. She knew that she'd wanted a little more time for folks like Usagi and Makoto to fuss, but this month was already shaping up... safe, but odd and they were hoping that Minako's eyesight would clear up by next week.]

We know it's a little last minute. But here in Trench, you never know what could come. At least none of us have to travel abroad, so we have all week right? And of course, you're all invited! Am I forgetting anything, dear?

[Uh... location, Vira-Lorr? You might want to tell them WHERE this is going to be? Minako chuckled slightly.]

You forgot the most important thing that needs to be mentioned. Venue. Where it will be taking place, which is at your place because my place is too small.

[Which was pretty much everything that she was aware of.]

I hope to be able to see everyone in such a special moment.

Oh yes, of course! We'll be hosting it out back, weather permitting. We hope to see all of you there!

(OOC: Replies can come from both Minako and/or Vira-Lorr! Minako will be blind during this post, so expect Audio replies. We'll post the Log of the event up on Sept 9th!)

[eudaimonikos]

Venue is not the most important thing! What are you wearing?

[ofc]

[onerthes]

[god, it was good to have Michael back to his usual self. She smiled as he hit on what was clearly the most important thing. Obviously.]

I've picked out a white ao dai that I like. One nice thing about the styles here in Trench is that there are tailors who still make the sorts of things I like to wear. Something with just enough lace, free flowing, but a beautiful ivory.

[She'd let Minako say her own plans. Oh how she had so many suspicions of just how beautiful she'd look that day, but she was hiding the actual dress until the day of. Traditions and not being seen in it till that day. She liked superstitions like that.]

[loveandduty]

As for what I am wearing... That is a super duper secret and wont be revealed until the day.

[hopesparks]

[ He doesn't know either of them especially well, but Vira-Lorr had been kind and informative when he arrived. So he doesn't feel awkward responding. ]

Congratulations to both of you.

Re: video ; un: a.solo

[onerthes]

Thank you. We've been through quite a bit, and I've wanted to say these vows with her for a long time. It's good to have happy days here.

[Nope, not gonna let blood shenanigans get her down.]

[loveandduty]

Thank you~

I still never expected this day to ever really happen. So I'm going to look forward to it.

[She really wasn't expecting it with the way the world is and things that happen as well as just the way Minako was way back when and very much expecting to never find love. Things have changed.]

[possessum]

( There's been a lot of bad, lately. It's easy to feel swallowed up in it — but Peter's finding himself giving a rare genuine smile as he watches the video message play out. )

Congrats to you both...! This is awesome news. Do you two need any help with anything? Need anybody to bring food or anything like that?

[onerthes]

[She grinned right back. Yeah, there'd been a fair bit of rough the last few months, so some good news was always nice.]

We... might need a little help with setting up. We're going to get the food arranged for us, but we'll likely want a small amount of help with the setup.

[She didn't mention the fact that Minako had been temporarily blinded, which was part of what solicited the speed up of the date, but they would probably need just a little assistance getting set up. Hopefully her senses would be back to normal next week, though Vira-Lorr really hoped she didn't lose her sense of touch at any point.

That was awful.]

[loveandduty]

Vira said what I was thinking. Just set up for the day really.

[Thankfully by the day Minako will not be having issues with her sight, but who knows what issue that will be that day.]

And that shouldn't be too much.

[imaglyphwitch]

HEY! CONGRATULATIONS!!

You know I'll be there with bells on! You couldn't keep me away!

[onerthes]

It wouldn't be the same without you, Luz. [She laughed.] Are you actually going to wear bells, I wonder?

[loveandduty]

You know I wouldn't even try and think of keeping you away.

[entreats]

The ninth already..?

[ Look, that's definitely what surprises Ange the most here. With how romantic these two seem to be (and Minako definitely excessively romantic, please, it's too much for Ange) it's not too surprising that they'd already be thinking of this sort of thing. The wedding news itself? Totally normal. She's glad for them. ]

I get not wanting to risk anything. [ There's an infinite number of ways Trench could ruin a wedding, it's true. It's something Ange herself has been thinking a lot about for sure... ] But isn't that so soon already? Did you guys already arrange a lot of it or something?

[ Or are they just going to speedrun wedding planning.

Godspeed, if so. ]

[loveandduty]

We've been engaged for a couple months already, so I had some things planned thankfully.

[Guess who has way too much time on her hands and is all about romance so of course she would have been planning this? This girl. She will make a big thing about it since she never expected it to ever happen.]

[onerthes]

[Cough, ahem. She looked a little embarrassed.] We were originally thinking of a little later in the month, but there's some issues with blood. We don't want to chance what might come. October could be even worse.

Thankfully, like Minako said? We've managed to get some but not quite all of it ready in advance. We'll need some help with setup.

[onekindsoul]

Congratulations!

Hope you guys are serving a lot of food!

Leave October to me- I'll take on all the risks with that one.

Can't wait!

Re: Video | Clickclickbloom

[onerthes]

With some of our likely guests? We couldn't skimp on the food, now could we?

[She laughed a bit, shaking her head.]

You're welcome to all you want in October. Got any big plans yourself, you two?

[Currently, she was just glad that Ruby was, ya know, talking to her. What happened when Chara lost it had worried her, and she'd been leery after her apology about pressing too much.]

[Usagi isn't currently suffering from lack of sight (yet), no, right now she can't smell anything.]

IT'S CRUNCH TIME UNTIL YOUR WEDDING DAY!

We have to get food finalized, the dress, the flowers, the decorations, the music, seating, [She suddenly gasps.]

HAVE YOU PICKED OUT WHERE YOU'RE HAVING YOUR HONEYMOON?! We gotta get that ready too!

[loveandduty]

[Usagi, Minako will smell all the things for you if needs be, even if there is probably no need for that.]

Didn't plan a honeymoon, no.

[thunderingcourage]

Congratulations, it's so soon! If there is anything I can help with just tell me!

[loveandduty]

Even though you are one of my bridemaids, I only ask for helping out with setting up on the day and nothing more.

[She knows bridesmaids usually do other obs but Minako didn't think about those other things.]

[chenqing_player]

Congratulations! Weddings are always a wonderful distraction from the less pleasant occurrences of this place. And doing it sooner rather then later is probably smart.

[As someone who had his wedding in the previous world he knows how treacherous things can be when trying to plan a happy day. He is also well aware of what Octobers are like...]

Re: Video

[loveandduty]

They really are, though there are some exceptions, but in this world even those exceptions...

[Considering how more likely they are to happen...]

[creidim]

[ Luna's fairing pretty well, with a loss of taste for the time being. She's been pretty miserable with her cooking, however. ]

Goodness—! Congratulations to you both—! I can understand the caution concerning October, Deerington's certainly left its mark, hasn't it? [ Deerington has ruined spooky season, a travesty. ]

As Peter says, I should very much like to help where I can, should you need it.

Re: video; un: quibbler

[onerthes]

Gods, but October in the nightmare was just... a lot. Every year. I think we'll always be a little gunshy about the month. [However much she was hoping things were different here, no. She wasn't taking a chance.]

And that's wonderful, thank you. I'm looking forward to having you.

video, un: GoldenFlowers, private

[the_obedient_servant]

Congratulations.

Would you like me to stay away?

[You know, because Vira is friends with a bunch of people that they specifically manipulated her into hurting. Several of whom are going to be in attendance, they imagine.

It's hard to remember their names, though.]

Very Private

[onerthes]

[She saw the message and left Minako to take it in another room. She had friends to talk to. Vira-Lorr settled against the wall in the laundry room and sighed. She looked tired, sad. She knew this would come up.]

I don't "Want" you to stay away, even if I'm still extremely angry at you. Ever since I've planned to marry Minako, I've imagined you being at the wedding. Hell, I might have briefly thought about trying to convince you to be the flower child. [Ahem] I won't be doing that, though.

I am not barring anyone from this event. You are precious to me, and I won't barr you. I technically won't bar the Emperor, even though he has no reason to come. We barely know 'of' each other, if at all. Anyone is welcome, but I will ask that all leave their grievances at the door for the day. They may ignore them, but the invitation is for everyone.

You do realize? Many of my friends in this place probably want to kill each other. You aren't the only one. I am... forgiving to a fault. [Another sigh.] But, just be aware. Ange will almost certainly be there. So... there are going to be people who you have personally aggrieved present.

The only way I can handle you... Reaper... Albert... Maul... And let us be real? Luna, as much as I love her and most think fondly of her. [She was WELL aware of just how much Luna'd pissed off a few people right back with the harm they'd done people she cared about.] Is for the invitation to be universal. Nobody barred. Everyone invited. And politely to ask none to fight. even if it means someone I don't really like comes.

[subject_013]

Well. Congratulations are in order to both of you, I see. [He appears to be sitting in his dimly-lit study, a Stairway to the Sun plant in fair condition visible in the light from the banker's lamp on his desk.]

I may not be known for a romantic sense, but I wouldn't miss the festivities for the world. Vira-Lorr has been as a close friend - even a family member, after a fashion - for some time. And Minako has given me some excellent advice regarding a personal matter. I hope that some day, I may put it to good use.

[onerthes]

Wonderful. It will be wonderful to have you here. We have too few pleasant memories in this world, you and I. So I intend to give you one more.

[She was a little curious about that personal matter, but she could turn her little internal gossip down for a moment.]

Let me know if you have any dietary requests. I can't recall if anything was fussy for you or not lately.

[creationrebirth]

This is so exciting! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that nothing prevents me from coming.

[onerthes]

Wonderful. Feel free to drag your grumpy gus along with you if they feel up to it. I am keeping the invite very open and would love to have you two.

… [He is gaping, then blinks himself out of it. Luckily, he has only lost his sense of smell right now.]

You're getting married? Dude, that's awesome! But man, nine days is like no time at all to plan a wedding. My brother nearly went crazy when it was like 6 months of planning.

[onerthes]

Haha, well Lance we did actually get engaged months ago. I just didn't make too much of an announcement back then. we told our friends, and I'm pretty sure some of them were watching her proposes to me that night. [Giggle]

But we'd thought later this month until the whole sensory troubles.
