Suteki Da Ne~ Afterwards

[timenpcs.livejournal.com]

Characters: Everyone invited and anyone who can justify being in Luca on the day of the ceremony (mad clowns not allowed)
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: After the ceremony!
Location: Luca, southern beach
Date: Friday, June 18, 1804
Warnings: We'll have to wait and see

In order to avoid Kefka showing up and destroying the place, Yuna and Tidus had kept the date and the preparations, on the whole, very on the down-low. So far Kefka hadn't actually gone to Luca, that they knew of, and neither of them had made big announcements about the date over the network. Most of the city knew, of course, as well as their friends, but they hoped that was as far as it had gone. Still, most of the wedding party had weapons in reserve, and the guests probably did, too.

But the wedding of a High Summoner was a Big Deal to native Spirans, and the fact that her groom was her Guardian and a skilled Blitzball player definitely drew more interest, leading many of the people in the city who hadn't gotten invitations to show up anyway just to try and catch a glimpse. There was no formal reception, but a large spread of food had been set up down the beach just a little ways, guarded from thieves and onlookers by more Blitz players until the ceremony was actually over. There was also a small musical group off to the side, playing various melodies for whomever wanted to dance. It was a social gathering, mainly, a time to talk and mingle, meet new friends and say hello to old ones, and maybe play a prank or two.

Just not on the newlyweds, please.

((ooc: If you can justify being in Luca, you can come to the party, invite or no. Since there's no real separation of areas, there will be no location subthreads. Just go ahead and tag away! Threadhopping and ninjatagging encouraged!))

"Right." Rydia nodded firmly. "It will be good for Alexandria and good for you. Take advantage of the time you have, before something else gets in the way."

It seemed sound advice to her. If Dagger knew what she wanted and had the time for it, why wait? In Rydia's mind, now was always the best time. Who knew when plans would be diverted, if they were shoved aside for a nebulous 'later'.

I'm sorry about being so late. We can wrap this up or keep going, whichever you like.

Rydia was absolutely, undeniably right. What was it she'd once been told? "Seize the moment"? Yes, that sounded right. As much as she hated to admit it, there may not ever be a later. Slowly, Dagger sat up, shaking what she could of the sand in her hair. Taking a deep breath, she exhaled and smiled.

"Is Edge here?" she asked, changing the subject. "I never did get the chance to meet him at my own reception." If she planned to needle Rydia about her potential beau, she hid it well.

You can make it up to me by having Garnet run into Edge. XD

Automatic paranoid rose at that, but Rydia squashed it down quickly. Dagger wasn't Eiko, nor the busybodies who kept the rumor mill going. She meant well and Rydia knew it. "Oh, he's around. We ought to fix that, then." There was a quick glance around, but she didn't spot him yet. "In fact, the sooner the better. It's highly possible that he's bickering with Kain again and I don't want that to get out of control."

Excellent! : D

Standing up fully, Dagger brushed the wrinkles and the rest of the sand from her clothes. Bending down to brush the sand out from between her toes, she stooped to retrieve her discarded shoes -- though she didn't plan on putting them on just then, she wasn't fond of the idea of losing them.

"Well, then we'd better not waste anymore time," replied Dagger, laughing quietly, and falling into step beside Rydia. "I take it they bicker a lot?"

Rydia snagged her sandals but likewise didn't don them yet. She rolled her eyes while answering the question. "When they meet, it's almost inevitable. Edge is loud, flamboyant, takes very little seriously. Kain is a near-hermit and takes everything seriously. They can get along enough to fight alongside each other, but that's about it."

"Real opposites then, huh?" Dagger smiled. The description of Edge reminded Dagger of her first impression of Zidane, really, and Kain's description reminded her vaguely of Amarant (whom, now that she thought about it, no one had heard from in over a year). "Sounds like a couple of people I know, so I think I can understand."

Now, they just had to find Edge.

A smirk formed as she nodded. "I think everyone knows a pair like that. It's one of those laws of the universe, or somesuch." She tried not to let it get to her, though it wasn't easy. Ever since Kain took it upon himself to involve her in their squabbling, her patience for such antics had dwindled.
