Who: Ange, Ruby, and you!
What: Ruby and Ange's wedding, and all their CR is invited!
When: Late October
Where: The rebuilt Clockhouse

Content Warnings: Semi-irresponsible weapon usage.




Sometime around the beginning of October invitations would have started to be sent out to the various people in Trench Ange and Ruby know - announcing the two girls' wedding at the end of the month.

When the day itself comes, people will find the location - the newly rebuilt Clockhouse, which some of the invitees may have helped rebuild in the first place - tastefully decorated. Some of the house's stranger features have been covered up by decorations in red and gold, mostly taking on the shapes of roses and butterflies all over the place.

[if sansa looks more than the usual amount of alarmed at the axe-throwing, it passes quickly. she has a plate piled high with sweets, and flashes ange a smile.]

It was a beautiful ceremony.

[she manages to say this with the correct amount of irony and sweeps gracefully into a chair next to ange.]

I've never been to a wedding where the tourney takes place during the banquet before.

[probably bringing up weddings she has and hasn't been to before is a bad idea. she offers ange her plate of sweets before taking one.]

Do all 'party games' involve throwing things at targets?

[sansa arrived during the moss king's festival and she has noticed some trends.]

[entreats]

.. they do when Ruby is involved.

[ If Ange is offended in the slightest, it sure doesn't show on her face - because she isn't. Not much could offend her when she's in such a good mood, after all. It's why an easy smile instead lingers on her lips, nodding a little in gratitude as she takes one of the sweets.

She's not going to turn that one down, though she makes sure to first finish speaking before putting the thing into her mouth. Ange has some manners. ]

Honestly, I've never heard of weddings where they did anything like it at all. [ Though Sansa seems.. a little bit more familiar? It's not too surprising, given how different world can be, and how some worlds almost seem like they could be from her own world's past.

Where they probably did do stuff like this at weddings. ]

But if it makes Ruby happy, I'll let you throw absolutely all the weapons she wants. It's her special day too, after all.

[sansa finishes her cake as ange speaks and smiles.]

It's not truly very different from the darts games they have at every other festival. I think even Viktor and Palamedes had some at their party in May.

[not their wedding, which apparently happened with the bare minimum of witnesses? also she is talking about cornhole. it's still throwing things at a target.]

I haven't been to very many weddings. I think this is the first one where the couple even liked each other. I'm very happy for the both of you.

[she leans forward a little and lowers her voice.]

A friend once told me he hoped his brother might have a tourney at his wedding, [to her. at willas tyrell's wedding to her.] but I've only ever seen a song contest at one. I suppose it was nearly as long as a tourney...

[that's not a joke anyone here is likely to get, sansa. she smiles at ange again.]

Weddings and marriage here are different from what I'm used to, but that's a good thing. Everyone is so...happy!

[ It's kind of nice to see people in good spirits because of the wedding. Even though Ange was a little bit antsy about having to do so much socialisation - it's nice enough when she's around people she's comfortable with, and Sansa seems pretty easy to talk to.

If not just because she does not seem to be quite like some of Ange's more extreme extroverted friends.

It leaves her smiling when Sansa proclaims that last part, just glad to have given her a chance to see a different sort of wedding. Especially since-- ]

I get it. I think.

[ Even though they're most likely not from the same world. Most people in this place aren't. ]

You must have seen more arrnaged marriages, right? Where people mostly marry because it's convenient in some way, for the sake of money, or power, or diplomacy.. [ Ange has seen the like too, having been trapped in that world full of uncaring rich people for so long. ] Those are really a pain. It's enough to make someone forget romance exists altogether.
