001 🌠 an invitation

[starshower]

Sender: Tifa Lockhart & Eustace
To: Everyone
Subject: A wedding!



Hi everyone! Tifa and Eustace here.

Some of you already know that Eustace and I are getting married this winter but consider this our official announcement. And an invitation!

The wedding ceremony will be at the Corgi Tree at 2PM and will be closed to friends only. However, we will be holding the reception at 5PM along the Riverside and will be open to the public. Everyone is welcome to attend, even if just to grab a free meal. Directions are provided.

So, I've been wondering what kind of traditions you all have in your own worlds? I've never been to one before myself, so I'd love to hear about things you've all seen or done! Maybe even borrow a few to start out a few new Reverein traditions.



OOC NOTE: ALL characters are welcome to the reception regardless of whether or not they have CR with Tifa and/or Eustace! There will be a log will be going up on December 3 for this, so please look forward to it! Both Tifa and Eustace will be responding.

[She doesn't doubt at all that Tifa has changed him. Rather, that he has allowed himself to change. People only change as a desire to do so. His own observation gains a pause from her, though he he would have no idea such a thing is happening.]

Oh? Are you certain that is not something you wish to see? Those are different, after all.

[flamekthunder]

Is there any reason I shouldn't?

[roseofmay]

I would not know. I was not aware my behaviour or any so-called changed would be important to you.

[flamekthunder]

[Hmmm.]

Perhaps, perhaps not. But rather than me, it's more important for you.

[roseofmay]

I thought we were talking about your wedding. You seem to enjoy turning this sort of thing around on me. I assure you, I have no wedding upcoming.

[flamekthunder]

I admit it is amusing how easy it is.

[roseofmay]

I feel I must surmise that you dislike speaking about yourself, Eustace. Every once in a while, you ought to let yourself be the centre of attention.

[flamekthunder]

There just isn't much to say, nor is there much need to.

[Don't see through his plans—]

[roseofmay]

Nonsense. There is plenty to say most of the time. You just do not care to do so, and that I can respect. [Because she’s the exact same way.] I think, however, some exceptions can be made.

[flamekthunder]

And you suggest this is one of those exceptions.

[Wait a minute, isn't he usually the one talking to her like this—]

[roseofmay]

[My, how the tables turn.]

That is precisely what I am suggesting. 'Tis a special occasion, after all, is it not. If that is not worthy of being an exception, I hardly know what one would be.

[flamekthunder]

[He doesn't like it.]

Fine, I'll grant you that.

[roseofmay]

Lovely. I look forward, then, to hearing more about these exploits and watching you attempt to enjoy yourself. As such, try to leave the wedding planning largely to those assisting and take the time to relax and enjoy yourself.

[flamekthunder]

Don't expect too much.

But I will...try. I don't find working that tiresome and it's usually easier if I handle things myself.

[Eustace no.]

[roseofmay]

I am not surprised at all to learn of this. [After all, she views it in the same way. If she does everything herself, she can not only guarantee that it’ll get done, but that it’ll get done to her standards.] Just consider that you are not making a permanent habit out of this. Once in a while, it is fine to step back and stop putting your hands in everything.

[flamekthunder]

Fair enough.

And I do trust and rely in all of you.

[roseofmay]

And we feel the same for you.

With that in agreement, I have to ask—is there something I can do at this point that can assist with all of this? If not, then I will simply let it go, but I have the time and could use the distraction.

[flamekthunder]

At this point time...no, I do not believe. Not from my side, at least. It's too early to really do much more about security than what's already be done, and Tifa may need your help more than I. So as long as you provide her whatever she needs, even if it's just moral support, that will be enough for me.

However, should I think of anything, I'll be sure to let you know.

[roseofmay]

That was a given and never in question. Anything Tifa requires, she can come to me. As long as it is within my power to do so, I shall see it done.

Try to take it easy until the wedding.

[flamekthunder]

I will. And you as well. Don't overwork yourself on our account.
