[redcinemareel]

Character(s): Grell, Marco, Pops, Ace, Espio(?), and their close friends (so...Bulla, Rinoa, whoever are Marco's close friends...? IDEK)
Location: The Ballroom
Rating: G-PG for sap
Open/Closed/Finished: Closed to those listed above. WELP not anymore!
Summary: It's a wedding!



Grell, who was pacing back and forth in her wedding dress, awaited her fate during the final moments of her freedom. It was just a few feet away in a room just off to the side from the ballroom. She was nervous, because the big day finally came. All she had to do was wait for an escort to go down the aisle.

This wedding was severely impromptu. Not all the details had been finalized. Right now, she could care less about food and guests.

[espio]

Y'know...

[Just going to appear casually at his side.]

This feels really rushed. I know why and all, but...

[fierybluebird]

I know, I'm sorry...

[As Espio hits the nail on the head about Marco's nerves.] I hope Grell's okay with it, but if Pops gets sent home before I can... I'd never forgive myself... [Fuck it. Just turns into a bird and rolls about for a bit.]

[espio]

...

[OKAY just gonna watch birdie roll like "wut."]

Well, she knows how important he is to you. It's not exactly an opportunity you can just go and miss.

[Still rolling?

Espio's going to try and make him stop. By sitting on him.]

[fierybluebird]

[Stops rolling just looks up at him warily and mumbles a few phoenix chirps, glancing away.]

[espio]

You know I don't speak tweet.

But hey. You know you committed to getting married the moment you asked her, right? All you really needed extra time for was a big fancy party, and we can always have the big fancy party some other time!

[fierybluebird]

[Meh. Fancy parties. Whatever whatever. Trying to roll again.]

[espio]

[DENIED! ...or rather, attempting to wrestle in order to make the rolling stop.]

All I'm saying is that it'll be okay, okay?! Don't ruin it by getting all anxious about maybe losing your Pops again - which may or may not even happen. Just do the whole happy event thing, get married and eat cake!

[fierybluebird]

[Stills, and starts relaxing until he calms down completely and nods. And then even switches back to human to scoop Espio up into a hug.]

Thanks matey. Is the suit okay? Ties trip me up. Feels like a leash.

[espio]

[WELL AT LEAST HE STOPPED BIRDING. Though the hug just makes him lineface. He doesn't really do the hugging thing.

Anyway. The suit!]

Tell me about it...

[Because he has a tie to wear, too!]

The suit's fine! There's not really a whole lot you can do with a suit, 'cept make sure the colours work and stuff.

[fierybluebird]

Well, she's the one who picked black and red. [Even if he went blue for the tie. Which he's now trying to loosen while staying classy.]

[espio]

Shouldn't the tie be black as well, then?

[fierybluebird]

But that much black is boring.

[espio]

Not that my "fashion sense" counts for much, given I don't have or need one, but... blue tie on a red shirt looks kinda weird.

[fierybluebird]

[Just undoes it.]

Help me find a bow tie. I'll leave it undone and if he wants it done up she can decide for herself.

[He will just be James Bond at his own wedding. Legit.]

[espio]

Go without one. It's bad enough she's got you in a shirt - surely she'll forgive you "forgetting" a tie!

1/2

[fierybluebird]

That or I could wear the blue...

[fierybluebird]

Aye... aye... I'm sure it'll be fine without. [Sigh.]

You look good though, eh? Thanks Espio.

[espio]

[Uncomfortable sort-of-grumble, and he fiddles with the tie.]

Just don't get used to me in a suit, okay?

[fierybluebird]

[Ruffles his head.]

I won't. So long as you promise the same for me.
