[Semi-Closed] Wedding Bliss

Who: Aymeric, Leo, their CR and their +1s
When: April 21st, all day
Where: Odin’s Temple, Glitnir
What: It’s a wedding! Please respond to the top levels provided!



The invitations had been sent, the work has been done (and into overtime after certain events), the orders have been made and the scenes have been set. Trying to plan a wedding without a planner can be pretty tough but the support system both men have did help in the long run. A lot of it even with a computer dying in the process. The point was to have a simple affair, no large fanfare considering this was not one of Heaven’s festivals and just a celebration of love between two people. This what both Leo and Aymeric wished for and they did their dammest to make it come to life, to hopefully a successful and eventful day but for all the right reasons.

They earned this happiness. Today is for them and they can share it with comrades and friends and family alike.

"Ah..." He knows the name 'nora' but doesn't associate it negatively like some others. "Aymeric's, but I used to have two other names as well - at the same time. Three total." So he gets it.

But there's the 'used' to.

"Aymeric has been... steadfast. I appreciate that about him. I'm sure he'll bring that to his marriage as well."

There's the 'used' to. The shinki that have never lost a god are probably far and few. Losing two is difficult. It's not difficult reading his listlessness as grief then.

"I'm sorry for your losses. Losing a god much less two is never easy."

He sighs and holds up his hand, tucking only the thumb. Four. Slowly, he folds a finger down as he says each of their names. "Ran, Lance, Hitsugaya... and Yona."

Then, he shuts his eyes briefly. "Being a nora... I thought it would ensure I'd always have someplace to go to. Now..." He looks over at Aymeric. "It feels like I should be dedicating myself to him more than ever. Like I haven't been."

Ginia winces at her mistake, head bowing in a quick apology. Two is hard enough, four even worse. She doesn't recognize all the names, but it's not the point. The pain of loss is always hard and those who have been around will know it the hardest.

She looks toward Aymeric then back to Yoon. Aymeric isn't someone she knows as well as others, but what she does know of him is he's a man of good character and morals.

"I don't think it's anything Aymeric holds against you in any regard. I think what he wants most is for you to be safe and happy."

A sigh escapes, already quick to write another message as her first one finishes.

"But I know what it's like feeling like you don't do enough for one god."

"I know he doesn't," Yoon says a little intensely, a brief flare of emotion. "That makes it worse." At least to him. "He told me that himself."

Then he rests one hand on his opposite arm, just to stem some of the anxious energy. "What do you do, then? When you feel that way." A simple enough question, but an obvious one in response to her statement.

Ginia can only speak for herself, but sometimes it feels worse when people are so accepting and kind. Maybe it says a lot about her state of being, but sometimes it's easier to deal with when someone is angry or upset in the face of perceived disappointment. She also knows more often, people are only understanding and supportive.

"I think on if there's anything I need to change. If I've talked things out with my gods and know how they feel. If I've made any promises I failed to keep. I do my best to spend time with both."

It's easier than it sounds. Even being able to work through the steps doesn't make the feelings go away. But bit by bit, it's making it easier.

"I know I can't protect both gods on my own, but both of my gods have other shinki and friends. It's not only my job. Realizing that helped a lot."

Unfortunately, most of that doesn't help him, as he only has the one god now. But noing his job... that part he can understand at least. Obviously Leo cares about Aymeric. It's just not as easy for Aymeric to call out Leo's name and have him appear by his side, the way that Aymeric could call Yoon's shinki name and he'd appear.

"Anything I need to change..."

That would be the other thing. His eyes drift over to the happy couple. "Maybe." One does come to mind at least. "I could be better at shinki magic, I suppose. I don't think I could cast spells back home." And Aymeric married one heck of a spellcaster, Yoon knows that much about him.

Just not how much of a ballbuster he is too.

"Knowing more shinki magic or getting better at borderlines doesn't hurt."

Ginia pauses to pour them each a glass of punch and adds an assortment of tiny fruit tarts and some crab cakes to a plate.

"But it's not about work or being better as a shinki. It's taking time to relax or taking care of yourself. Ebisu and his other shinki have been encouraging me to be nicer to myself. That's more important for me to do than to learn another spell."
handsome_genius: (how dare you make me care)

[personal profile] handsome_genius 2019-05-12 02:35 pm (UTC)(link)
"Ah... that sort of thing..."

Yoon does understand what Ginia means, even if some of the weight of her words is lost in the translation of the machine. He knows just enough about his past life to know how little time he ever had to relax the way that some of these more modern people do. His method of having fun was reading. He's been teased before about how much time he spent doing chores around Yona's temple in lieu of any sort of relaxing he could possibly do.

"I... guess... I could ask Keith to go flying again sometime. Or sit with Kosmo for a little while? I don't know - not much comes to mind right now."

[personal profile] unlucky7 2019-05-12 07:22 pm (UTC)(link)
If he enjoys reading, Ginia couldn't wouldn't discourage it. Even cleaning she can understand to a degree. As long as it's something someone wants to do for fun and it's not hurting anyone else, who can really judge?

"It's a good starting place. Spending time with people is important, especially those outside the temple. Give yourself time and space."
handsome_genius: (smile (thin))

[personal profile] handsome_genius 2019-05-20 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Yoon smiles at the image Ginia is helping grow in his mind.

"The way Keith flies Red, I could get very far outside the temple if I asked him. On the other hand, just exploring the way Red is built could be interesting all on its own."

It's a feat of futuristic magic that Yoon still isn't quite over. He's not sure if Ginia's aware of Red or not, now that he thinks about it...

[personal profile] unlucky7 2019-05-23 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
"What's Red?"

She can presume it's some kind of flying ship, fairly big if it can be explored. Maybe something like Hibiki's yacht? Ginia can't remember seeing anything substantial around, but Heaven is pretty big and it's not hard hiding secrets inside a temple.

"I'm still figuring that out myself," he confesses with a wistful sigh - mostly of curiosity. "But on the surface at least... Red is the name Keith uses for a giant red cat that is actually a mechnical thing that can fly through the air. He sits in a spot just behind the eyes and looks out, directing it where to go. It's amazing."

The act of flying in a mecha cat, yes, but his memory of it was with Keith.

A giant flying mechanical red cat. Ginia has heard and seen a lot of ridiculous things since her arrival here and that makes the list because of the seemingly unusual combination of words. Doesn't make it any less awesome through. Ginia's face lights up as she tries to picture it. Maybe it's the size of a bus? Or some kind of fighter plane seems a more apt comparison.

"That sounds incredible! How high can it fly? Is it as fast as a plane?"
handsome_genius: (eager student of everything)

[personal profile] handsome_genius 2019-06-27 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't know! I think it can fly as high as anything could! At least, I'd believe Red is that powerful. I don't know how fast a plane goes, but it's very fast!" It was hard to put in perspective, considering how used to walking everywhere he was. "It's not instantaneous like when we travel with the gods to the Near Shore, or when they call us into vessel forms, but definitely fast!"
unlucky7: (STATUS :: Smiling 2)

[personal profile] unlucky7 2019-06-28 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm impressed I've never seen it flying, but ifit's that fast, I probably woudn't have even noticed." Maybe if it was noisy she'd notice, but nothing stands out. It's also just as likely she's been on the Near Shore when a flight was taking place.

"Did it appear here out of the blue or was it already here?"
