RP - A Sudden Wedding At The Cathedral (Johanes)

Location: Huola, Planet SevenSetting: A palatial manor house situated at the top of a cliff, with spectacular views across the ocean. At the foot of the coastal path, a beautiful bay with white sandy beach allows Manor regulars, and their guests, a private and serene location to take a dip in the warm water.The house, surrounded by acres of lush gardens and tropical palm-trees, boasts a terrace bar lit by torches; flickering with naked flame. ((image here))From the landing pad, visitors are escorted to the terrace after having their weapons confiscated by the privately employed security detail. The terrace is scattered with tables and chairs, chaise lounges, rockers, and several outdoor sofas. Drinks and food are served upon request by a dedicated team of smartly dressed servers. The terrace is also fitted with several holodrones and a retractable roof that is used during the rainy season. A three tiered water fountain sits directly in the centre of the terrace - the base having been decorated with floating flowers, and is home to several species of Koi.Visitors are allowed to stroll the gardens and visit the nearby waterfall, the menagerie, and the public rooms of the Manor house. Overnight accommodation is also available in the Guest House, which is located opposite the house, near the menagerie.
[ 2014.12.13 01:40:45 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote sighs, "The Holder above me... issued a directive regarding my holdings and affairs."
[ 2014.12.13 01:41:56 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote quirks a brow, "Oh? Want to talk about it?" she asks as she nears him and slides into a seat at the bar.
[ 2014.12.13 01:42:29 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote sighs again, "Would you care to read the directive?"
[ 2014.12.13 01:43:07 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote nods, "Yes, if you are okay with sharing it."
[ 2014.12.13 01:43:35 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote sends Shalee the message via neocom, then looks away, trying to calm himself.
[ 2014.12.13 01:45:30 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote opens up her neocomm as the message.
[ 2014.12.13 01:47:22 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote wrinkles her nose. "You think the MIO that was stalking Katerina has now involved himself into your affairs?"
[ 2014.12.13 01:49:51 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "Possibly," He rests his elbow on the counter, then presses his face into a hand, "But there was no mention about the Sani Sabik in the directive... I think he was referencing her commoner status."
[ 2014.12.13 01:50:31 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote says "commoner status" sarcastically, mocking his district holder.
[ 2014.12.13 01:53:01 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote nods. "Probably, yeah. That will be a battle you will always fight against, no matter what."
[ 2014.12.13 01:55:14 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "And then I'm supposed to just ignore that Vlad killed me?"
[ 2014.12.13 01:57:42 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote chews her bottom lip, her expression troubled. "I do find it rather odd that he would mention Vlad. How would he even know of Vlad?"
[ 2014.12.13 01:58:04 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "I don't know," he sighs, "But I'm bound by the directive..."
[ 2014.12.13 01:58:55 ] Shalee Lianne > I suppose we should lift the ban.
[ 2014.12.13 01:59:26 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote looks up at Shalee looking defeated, offering weakly, "He's not your district holder..."
[ 2014.12.13 02:01:18 ] Shalee Lianne > No. But, the whole 'keep your friends close and enemies closer' comes to mind.
[ 2014.12.13 02:04:47 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods quietly, "All right... But, I don't want Kat to be in danger... She'll remain safe when she visits?" He looks at Shalee, more than willing to sacrifice himself for Kat's safety.
[ 2014.12.13 02:09:20 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote nods, "Yes, of course. I wont let anything happen to her here. I have upped security inside of the house."
[ 2014.12.13 02:09:46 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods thankfully, looks away, then sighs, "I wish I told you under better circumstances..." He looks up at Shalee, "But I've proposed to her."
[ 2014.12.13 02:10:34 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "So... I'd be devestated if anything were to happen."
[ 2014.12.13 02:10:47 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "I know it's selfish of me. Forgive me."
[ 2014.12.13 02:11:02 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote quirks a brow and opens her mouth about to say how foolish it is to propose to someone you've known a whole minute, then decides better of it. People in love never listen to reason.
[ 2014.12.13 02:11:06 ] Shalee Lianne > Congratulations.
[ 2014.12.13 02:14:14 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote frowns at Shalee's facial expression, then looks surprised. He manages a clumsy, "Thank you. We haven't set a date, yet. Lady Aspenstar believes it will be several months at least."
[ 2014.12.13 02:15:46 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote nods, "That is a good idea. There really isn't a need to rush into anything is there?"
[ 2014.12.13 02:17:24 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods in agreement, "To be honest, I was surprised she accepted my proposal."
[ 2014.12.13 02:18:45 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote becomes solemn, "Any leads thus far? I'm sorry for hijacking the conversation for my own issues when the wider problem has yet to be resolved."
[ 2014.12.13 02:22:33 ] Shalee Lianne > Before we talk about that, let me say something else. I know I have no right to, but, I feel I must. And if you hate me for it, then...alright.
[ 2014.12.13 02:23:52 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote looks at Shalee with trepidation, "What's on your mind?"
[ 2014.12.13 02:25:49 ] Shalee Lianne > After Tiger and I broke up, I soon started dating Xolve- he was a militia pilot at the time. He was charming, charismatic, and we fell in love so quickly, within two months he proposed and I accepted.
[ 2014.12.13 02:26:50 ] Shalee Lianne > He was a rebound, I didn't realize it at the time, but I fell in love with him because it was easy and it was nice to have someone and it was a huge mistake. I didn't know him, not really. What can you know after two months?
[ 2014.12.13 02:28:18 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods quietly, listening attentively.
[ 2014.12.13 02:28:27 ] Shalee Lianne > I ended things a while later, but- my point is. You can't truly know the measure of a person in such a short space of time. You shouldn't marry someone without really knowing them, and letting them know you. Completely. And that takes a lot of time.
[ 2014.12.13 02:29:18 ] Shalee Lianne > So I hope that you will give your engagement the time it deserves instead of blindly jumping into something so serious.
[ 2014.12.13 02:29:52 ] Shalee Lianne > You are at least the third man she has been deeply in love with this year alone.
[ 2014.12.13 02:31:08 ] Shalee Lianne > So. Go slow. You are a capsuleer, and you have all the time in the world.
[ 2014.12.13 02:31:13 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote looks solemn, "I see... I didn't know that..."
[ 2014.12.13 02:32:08 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote breaks through the cloud in his Leopard, then slows down as he roars over the house, coming to a hover over the landing pad. Easing down, he gracefully touches down and emerges from the shuttle moments later.
[ 2014.12.13 02:32:50 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "Please excuse me." He says, downcast, walking towards the garden to clear his head.
[ 2014.12.13 02:34:23 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote sighs and mutters under her breath, "Shoulda kept my big mouth shut."
[ 2014.12.13 02:34:42 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote heads up from the shuttle pad, just in time to catch Regi leaving the terrace. With his bag over his shoulder, he walks towards Shalee. "Good evening!" he booms.
[ 2014.12.13 02:41:28 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote had turned her attention to her neocomm just as Regi left. She lifts her gaze as Tiger returns and grins, "Tiger!" She slips out of her chair and makes her way to him, arms slide around his neck.
[ 2014.12.13 02:42:57 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote drops his bag as Shalee nears him, and wraps his arms around her. "How are you, darling?" he whispers, his cheek pressed to the side of her head.
[ 2014.12.13 02:44:11 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote "Better now that you are here." She pulls her head back and smiles, "Can you stay all weekend?"
[ 2014.12.13 02:45:42 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote nods his head as he pulls back to look at her. "Of course I can. I have everything I need for a few days with me!". Leaning back towards her, he places a soft kiss on her lips. "How have you been?"
[ 2014.12.13 02:48:46 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote furrows her brows slightly, "Oh, fine. I've been away this week. I needed some personal time."
[ 2014.12.13 02:50:01 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote smiles adoringly at her. "and yet you didn't think to call me? Did you go to our country retreat?"
[ 2014.12.13 02:51:49 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote shakes her head, "No. Somewhere we've never been. But I am ready to tell you about it." She takes him by the hand and drags him over to a sofa.
[ 2014.12.13 02:53:30 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote follows after her, hand in hand, leaving his bag behind on the floor. "Tell me everything, Shalee", he says, sitting down on the sofa beside her. "Where did you go?"
[ 2014.12.13 02:55:00 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote "To a funeral." She keeps her hand curled around his while they sit.
[ 2014.12.13 02:56:01 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > "A funeral?", he asks, softly stroking the side of her hand with his thumb. "Whose?"
[ 2014.12.13 02:58:06 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote takes a deep breath and exhales slowly. "My daughters." She looks to the sea, trying to keep her emotions in check. She'd simply exhausted herself this week crying.
[ 2014.12.13 03:00:59 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote freezes, his thumb no longer moving against her hand. "Your daughter's? I've known you for so long, Shalee, yet you've never even mentioned her to me"
[ 2014.12.13 03:04:35 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote watches the pewter sea, scalloped by white. Birds sail across the grey sky. "Before I met you. It was...it happened just after I'd been cloned and hadn't taken the time to see to the necessary precautions. I mean. It shouldn't have even happened....
[ 2014.12.13 03:05:30 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote But it did. Once I found out, I cloned jumped out and gave the baby up for adoption. She couldn't be used against me. Or her father."
[ 2014.12.13 03:16:03 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote looks down at her neocomm. "Something has come up. Maybe I can meet up with you later." She exits the terrace.
[ 2014.12.13 03:16:33 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote watches her go, then heads off to his suite.
[ 2014.12.13 03:20:21 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote walks onto the Terrace dressed casually, but still aware of the new ring, hoping to run into Shalee. She takes a seat at the empty bar with a slight sigh, and orders a glass of wine.
[ 2014.12.13 03:28:45 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote walks onto the Terrace looking perturbed. He sees Kat, but his smile is brief when he sees her.
[ 2014.12.13 03:33:13 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote smiles back at Reginald, "Hey."
[ 2014.12.13 03:34:27 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote gives a small smile, "Good evening, Kat." He walks over to her looking bothered.
[ 2014.12.13 03:36:43 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote finds a seat, shifting his gaze from one side of the Terrace to another, "How are you?"
[ 2014.12.13 03:37:24 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote frowns, Reginald's making her nervous. "I'm okay, you?"
[ 2014.12.13 03:37:34 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote heads back to the terrace, surprised to see Regi and Kat and not Tiger.
[ 2014.12.13 03:37:38 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "Not... not a fantastic day."
[ 2014.12.13 03:38:41 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote glances over at Shalee, then looks back at Kat, smiling a little, "But... we can talk about later."
[ 2014.12.13 03:40:30 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote nods, "Okay." She follows Regi's gaze to Shalee, then gets up and goes over to give Shalee a huge hug.
[ 2014.12.13 03:40:45 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote heads over to Regi and Kat, "Sorry to interrupt." She looks between the two, "But I want to tell you..." stops talking as Kat hugs her.
[ 2014.12.13 03:40:57 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote hugs her in return, "Whats this for?"
[ 2014.12.13 03:42:14 ] Katerina Tzestu > Reginald told me, about ilaw. Let me know if I can do anything, okay?
[ 2014.12.13 03:42:42 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote nods. "Theres nothing much to be done, most everyone has left."
[ 2014.12.13 03:44:56 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote nods, "Well I meant if you want to go after them..."
[ 2014.12.13 03:45:36 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote nods. "Oh. That. Yes, I do. But that is a conversation for another time. I need to say something to you both now."
[ 2014.12.13 03:45:59 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote just nods, letting her continue.
[ 2014.12.13 03:46:08 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote looks up at Shalee attentively.
[ 2014.12.13 03:46:45 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote looks between the two. "Earlier, I told Regi that he should wait a very long time before you two married, and just now, thinking about it- I shouldn't have given that advice."
[ 2014.12.13 03:47:03 ] Shalee Lianne > Your marriage is your own affair, no one elses. And you will know when it is right.
[ 2014.12.13 03:47:28 ] Shalee Lianne > Don't let any outsiders influence what is between the two of you, okay? Even me.
[ 2014.12.13 03:48:58 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote smiles and hugs Shalee again, "Even if you have our best interests at heart?"
[ 2014.12.13 03:49:12 ] Katerina Tzestu > Don't worry though, I won't.
[ 2014.12.13 03:50:05 ] Shalee Lianne > I do have your best interests at heart. But your experiences and mine are vastly different. I have no right to give advice based on the things I've been through.
[ 2014.12.13 03:50:23 ] Shalee Lianne > That being said, I have something else to confide. I want you two to be the first to know.
[ 2014.12.13 03:51:23 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote has been smiling this whole time--even if something else weighs heavily on his mind. He remains silent and waits for Shalee to continue speaking.
[ 2014.12.13 03:53:18 ] Shalee Lianne > I'm getting married.
[ 2014.12.13 03:54:02 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "Really?" Reginald's eyes widen, breaking into a broad smile, "Congratulations!"
[ 2014.12.13 03:54:40 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote smiles, "Congratulations. To Tiger?"
[ 2014.12.13 03:55:15 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote nods, "I've decided it is time. He doesn't know it yet....will you help? I want to do it tonight. In the cathedral. You could be witnesses."
[ 2014.12.13 03:55:46 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote nods, "We'd love to."

[ 2014.12.13 03:56:59 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, "Absolutely."
[ 2014.12.13 03:57:25 ] Shalee Lianne > If you two can go arrange the Cathedral I'll find Tiger.
[ 2014.12.13 03:57:40 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote nods, "Lets."
[ 2014.12.13 03:57:56 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods at Kat, and follows her off towards the Cathedral.
[ 2014.12.13 03:59:54 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote wanders from the guest house carrying a bunch of suitcases and swearing about his God-danged grand niece.
[ 2014.12.13 04:00:37 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote "Wait!" she calls out to Kat and Regi.
[ 2014.12.13 04:01:02 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote stops and looks towards Shalee, "What's up?"
[ 2014.12.13 04:01:39 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote nears Kat, wearing a giddy grin. "Be impulsive with me. Why don't you and Regi get married too? We can have a double elopment here."
[ 2014.12.13 04:02:13 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote frowns at his shoelaces and bends down, muttering to himself.
[ 2014.12.13 04:02:43 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote stops dead in his tracks and glances over at Kat, "Elopement?"
[ 2014.12.13 04:03:11 ] Shalee Lianne > Well, it sort of is an eloepment. At the cathedral, anyhow.
[ 2014.12.13 04:03:18 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote looks a bit shocked, the idea hadn't even crossed her mind. "Yea, lets."
[ 2014.12.13 04:05:03 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote looks at Kat, his heart skipping a beat, exhilirated at the notion. He asks quietly, "But... would it be... legal and accepted?"
[ 2014.12.13 04:05:48 ] Shalee Lianne > Yes. And yes.
[ 2014.12.13 04:06:42 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods excitedly, "All right, then."
[ 2014.12.13 04:06:46 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote finishes tying his shoes. He notices a beetle on the ground and watches it before he gets back up, though.
[ 2014.12.13 04:07:23 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote grabs Kat by the arm, "Then we will meet you at the Cathedral." She drags Kat off to the house to find dresses.
[ 2014.12.13 04:07:56 ] Johanes Beaumonte > "Eh, a cathedral?" he straightens up. "When did they build that?"
[ 2014.12.13 04:07:58 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote waves a quick goodbye with a laugh as she's dragged off into the manor house.
[ 2014.12.13 04:08:18 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote looks after them, speechless. He then realizes he needs to prepare also and provide a ring. He sends out a series of messages to his staff at Myyhera.
[ 2014.12.13 04:08:52 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "Indeed, sir. It was completed a fortnight ago." He smiles widely, "And I'll be getting married there, tonight."
[ 2014.12.13 04:09:26 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Mwaggiage! Good luck my good man!
[ 2014.12.13 04:10:10 ] Johanes Beaumonte > I can tell I am looking at is kind of an old fashioned guy who really believes in the sanctitity of marriage! *he slaps Reginald on the back heartily*
[ 2014.12.13 04:10:17 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, "Thank you! Thank you! Now, if you'll please excuse me, I'd best go and get prepared."
[ 2014.12.13 04:13:15 ] Johanes Beaumonte > God Bless my good man!
[ 2014.12.13 04:13:30 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote grins widely, then walks off of the Terrace.
[ 2014.12.13 04:13:34 ] Johanes Beaumonte > I will go and look at this Cathedral and see if it's been constipated yet.
[ 2014.12.13 04:13:38 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote wanders down the path.

Channel MOTD: Cerra CathedralDeep in contested space, on a planet run by the Matari hordes, a single shining beacon to Amarrian faith stands majestically, providing hope to the many loyal pilots of Cerra Manor. Built of white marble, white granite pillars and gold trim finish, the Cathedral has been lovingly built under the watchful eyes of the Matari oppressors, currently stationed in Huola. Set in a clearing a short walk from the Manor House, the Cathedral towers over the nearby trees and is surrounded by statues of Amarrian religious figures, carefully crafted beds of flowers, and small circular water fountains. At the entrance is a large three tiered water fountain, with water jetting up from the mouths of lions in the centre.Inside the Cathedral, a white marble floor decorated with golden pyerite tiles leads from the entrance foyer to the large wooden pews - crafted from wood specially selected from near the house. Despite the natural feel of the pews, the rest of the Cathedral is lavish, rich in valuable art and golden altar, rood, beams and statues.Image here
[ 2014.12.13 04:00:51 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote walks with Kat to the front of the Cathedral, "Tonight is quite a night, then, isn't it?"
[ 2014.12.13 04:13:34 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote after much time of finding a suitable sparkling white ballgown and having her hair done into a mass of curls, she walks with Kat to the Cathedral, giggling, arms linked.
[ 2014.12.13 04:14:23 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote enters the cathedral and looks about and chats with the staff here and fades into the background until later.
[ 2014.12.13 04:20:14 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote moves up the steps, the hem of her dress flows across the steps behind her. Once she reaches the top she pauses, glancing around for Tiger. She has a moment of panic- maybe he wouldn't be there.
[ 2014.12.13 04:20:23 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote is standing near the entrance to the cathedral with members of his staff. He's dressed in surprisingly well-tailored formal dress, as he paces nervously waiting for the pair to reach the cathedral.
[ 2014.12.13 04:20:54 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote stops in front of the alter, her smooth ivory dress feeling amazing for a last minute find, her hair done in a similar fashion to Shalees, but gathered behind her head.
[ 2014.12.13 04:22:58 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote stops next to Shalee, her smooth ivory dress feeling amazing for a last minute find, her hair done in a similar fashion to Shalees, but gathered behind her head.*
[ 2014.12.13 04:23:29 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote arrives at the Cathedral, later than everyone else. Approaching slowly along the path from the Manor, he's dressed in his smartest, most formal dress uniform.
[ 2014.12.13 04:24:48 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote hands Katerina over to Reginald as Tiger approaches. She smiles adoringly to him, "Are you surprised?"
[ 2014.12.13 04:25:41 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote walks up the steps, stiffly, nervously. Nodding his head, he returns her smile. "Completely. I didn't think you ever wanted this"
[ 2014.12.13 04:25:53 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote, blushes as he sees Kat, "Good evening, Miss Tzestu."
[ 2014.12.13 04:27:06 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote "That is the last time you'll call her that!" she says to Reginald, then links her arm with Tigers. "I've always wanted it. It just took a long time for us to get here. But now we are."
[ 2014.12.13 04:28:35 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote blushes, "Mr. Torpedo."
[ 2014.12.13 04:28:56 ] Katerina Tzestu > And Mrs. Torpedo, soon.
[ 2014.12.13 04:29:10 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote smiles at Reginald, no worry this time.
[ 2014.12.13 04:29:20 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote links his arm around hers and pulls her tightly to his side. With his free hand, he taps the back of her hand softly. "Good evening, my friends". He glances from Kat to Shalee, then to Regi.
[ 2014.12.13 04:29:26 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote returns Kat's smile with a bright one of his own.
[ 2014.12.13 04:30:19 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote was surprised by the request of the Staff, but borrowed a pair of fine robes. The altar is resplendent with candles and he is sitting inside waiting, pondering furiously to himself and reviewing scripture madly.
[ 2014.12.13 04:31:20 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "Good evening, Mr. Torpedo." He says, smiling for once genuinely.
[ 2014.12.13 04:32:17 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote from the open doors, she can hear the music softly playing. "Shall we go inside?"
[ 2014.12.13 04:33:35 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "Before we go in, I think we should wait for any guests that might still be arriving."
[ 2014.12.13 04:34:13 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote bites his lower lip, then looks back to Shalee once more; her beauty beyond compare. Despite this being the moment he'd longed for since they first met, he whispers to her. "You're certain about this?"
[ 2014.12.13 04:35:00 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote nods, "Yes. I am ready." She then looks to Reginald, "Are we expecting guest? I didn't think to invite anyone."
[ 2014.12.13 04:35:19 ] Katerina Tzestu > I didn't either. Should we have?
[ 2014.12.13 04:35:39 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote sees the doors open and is standing placidly in front of the altar with his hands clapsed. Altar servers at each side.
[ 2014.12.13 04:36:21 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote looks towards the path, indicating two figures being escorted down by one of Regi's servants. He says aloud to Kat, "I was hoping I'd get to meet them beforehand, but... I sent for them." He glances at Kat smiling, "I hope it was okay."
[ 2014.12.13 04:37:43 ] Reginald Sakakibara > He smiles innocently at Kat, "I mean... they are your parents, after all."
[ 2014.12.13 04:41:07 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote looks surprised. "How did you..." She shakes her head, "nevermind, it was very thoughtful of you."
[ 2014.12.13 04:43:20 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote smiles, "You shouldn't look so surprised. Will you introduce us, love?"
[ 2014.12.13 04:44:03 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote waits for Katerina's parents to be seated, and while Regi and Kat go over to speak to them, she turns her gaze to Tiger, "You don't seem to be happy. In fact, you seem nervous. Is this not what you want?"
[ 2014.12.13 04:44:42 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote asks one of the altar servers to hand him a chalice while is waiting. He takes a deep draught. It is filled with brandy. He hands it back and gazes beautifically up the aisle, his hands reclapsed.
[ 2014.12.13 04:46:21 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote gives Shalee's hand a reassuring squeeze as he turns his body to face her. "Of course this is what I want, Shalee. You know how much I love you; how much I've always loved you. That said, it's no lie that I'm nervous".
[ 2014.12.13 04:46:57 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote gives her parents a huge hug, born of not seeing them nearly enough. She then sits with them and Reginald for a bit, both introducting Reginald and catching up with them.
[ 2014.12.13 04:48:37 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote "There is no need to be nervous." She leads him to the alter and waits for Kat and Regi to join them.
[ 2014.12.13 04:49:12 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote smiles graciously as he's introduced to his to-be mother in-law and father in-law, all the while admiring Kat's radiance and her smile that shines brighter than Caroline's Star at its zenith.
[ 2014.12.13 04:49:26 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote gives her parents another hug, then joins Shalee at the altar with Reginald.
[ 2014.12.13 04:50:20 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote glances to see if the couples are ready.
[ 2014.12.13 04:50:39 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote walks by her side to the altar, still holding her hand, then turns his attention to Johanes.
[ 2014.12.13 04:51:06 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Intones "We are all gathered here today," *gives a nervous smile at the assembled, wringing his hands slightly*
[ 2014.12.13 04:51:21 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Mawage. Mawage is wot bwings us togeder today. *looking more confident as he goes on*
[ 2014.12.13 04:51:41 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Mawage, that bwessed awangment, that dweam wifin a dweam... And wuv, tru wuv, will fowow you foweva... So tweasure your wuv. *gazes at the couples*
[ 2014.12.13 04:51:53 ] Reginald Sakakibara > (lmao)
[ 2014.12.13 04:52:04 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Think on the Twue and solemn meaning of mwaggiage, which is a time for peace, love, and quiet contemptation.
[ 2014.12.13 04:52:14 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Think on a husband's conjungal and a wife's convivial obligations. *gives the men a pointed, conspiratorial look*
[ 2014.12.13 04:52:23 ] Johanes Beaumonte > And now for yer promises and committments,
[ 2014.12.13 04:52:33 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote takes a deep breath.
[ 2014.12.13 04:52:48 ] Johanes Beaumonte > *smile at Shalee* Lady Lianne, I know this has been a long time coming, Like the Good Book says "Patience is a virgin"
[ 2014.12.13 04:52:59 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote glances back to Shalee as Johanes talks.
[ 2014.12.13 04:53:28 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Do you, Shalee Lianne, take this man to be your husband, to love and to cherish till death do you part, *blinks slowly* Umm... until your clones are used up, For better for worse, in secrets and in health?
[ 2014.12.13 04:53:59 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote lifts her brows as Johanes speaks, obviously having never heard the man before. She stiffles a giggle, trying to keep her expression serious. "Yes."
[ 2014.12.13 04:54:19 ] Johanes Beaumonte > *looks at Katerina* And dew you, Katerina Tzestu, take this man to be your husband, to love and to cherish, until your clones are used up, For better for worse, in secrets and in health?
[ 2014.12.13 04:54:45 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote smiles at Shalee, giving her hand another firm squeeze.
[ 2014.12.13 04:55:00 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote nods, a large smile on her face as she says "Yes."
[ 2014.12.13 04:55:04 ] Johanes Beaumonte > *nods at Katerina with approval and adds* A woman should cleave into her husband. Right here in this Cathedral is where her cleavage belongs
[ 2014.12.13 04:55:19 ] Johanes Beaumonte > *looks at Tiger* And you.. well, Like the Good Book says: "Let him who is without sin be the rolling stone...."
[ 2014.12.13 04:55:37 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Do you, Tigerfish Torpedo, take this woman to be your lawfully bedded wife, to love and to cherish, Until your clones are used up, For better for worse, in secrets and in health?
[ 2014.12.13 04:56:40 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote nods his head, keeping his eyes on Shalee, a proud smile on his face. "I do"
[ 2014.12.13 04:57:03 ] Johanes Beaumonte > And dew you, Reginald Sak.. umm.. Saki.... umm Sakibarra.. umm. Reggie! take this woman to be your lawfully bedded wife, to love and to cherish, Until your clones are used up, For better for worse, in secrets and in health.
[ 2014.12.13 04:57:39 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote is too blinded by Kat's heavenly magnificence to even care what the words are at this point. He says firmly and without hesitation, "I do."
[ 2014.12.13 04:57:46 ] Johanes Beaumonte > I now pronounce you, husbands and wives! *raises his arms with a gestures towards the couples* Good God, kiss each other!
[ 2014.12.13 04:58:19 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote tilts her chin up, offering her mouth to Tiger as her eyes start to close.
[ 2014.12.13 04:58:37 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote grins at Johanes and leans towards Shalee, kissing her passionately on the lips, his own eyes closing as their lips touch.
[ 2014.12.13 05:00:03 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote leans in towards Regi, pressing her lips to his.
[ 2014.12.13 05:00:31 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote looks into Kat's emerald eyes and seems almost reluctant, for fear that kissing her would ruin the angelic image before him. He closes his eyes and accepts her kiss with the grace and nobility expected of a Holder.
[ 2014.12.13 05:02:25 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote tries to savor the moment, the first kiss of their marriage. She commits it all to memory, the feel of his soft lips upon hers, the smell of the cathedral: cloying scent of flowers and incense. The bells begin to ring, marking the occassion.
[ 2014.12.13 05:03:56 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote blushes at the passion displayed before him and waits placidly for the kisses to be finished.
[ 2014.12.13 05:04:45 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote takes her other hand in his, as he pulls away. Staring into her eyes, he beams with pride, overwhelmed by the fact they're joined together in marriage. "I love you, Shalee" he whispers softly, his words muffled by the bells.
[ 2014.12.13 05:04:52 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote breaks the kiss after a long moment, wishing she could stay there forever. She opens her eyes, then takes Reginalds hand, looking into his eyes for a moment before turning back to Johanes.
[ 2014.12.13 05:05:30 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote clears his throat. "Now for the four of you to confirm and seal your vows to be intricate together with the rings you have for each other."
[ 2014.12.13 05:05:58 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Please present the rings for their blessing.
[ 2014.12.13 05:07:15 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote glances at the couples for those holding the rings to bring them forward.
[ 2014.12.13 05:08:08 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote looks a bit embarrassed, knowing she doesn't have a ring for Reginald, however, her father steps up and brings a ring forward, his ring.
[ 2014.12.13 05:08:35 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote glances at the others.
[ 2014.12.13 05:08:52 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote had one of her handmaidens holding the ring she's picked out earlier during the day. She'd had it inscribed with 'love, trust, commitment'. The girl steps forward and hands over the ring.
[ 2014.12.13 05:09:34 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote takes a ring off of a soft velvet pillow brought up by one of his servants. He hopes that Kat doesn't mind yet another heirloom, much like the engagement ring he presented her. Nonetheless, the ring itself is priceless and he presents it to her.....
[ 2014.12.13 05:09:59 ] Reginald Sakakibara > ... as his equal, and in his eyes, elevating her from his commoner heritage before all present and for all who would claim otherwise.
[ 2014.12.13 05:10:07 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote clears his throat, "the blessing first, Milard"
[ 2014.12.13 05:10:09 ] Reginald Sakakibara > her commoner*
[ 2014.12.13 05:10:51 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote glances at Tigerfish.
[ 2014.12.13 05:11:11 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote laughs, "Of course." He waits patiently, accepting that marriage traditions differ between constellations.
[ 2014.12.13 05:12:19 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote delves into his pocket and pulls our a beautful ring for Shalee. Although un-inscribed, it marks his love and affection for her in the sheer craftsmanship of its construction.
[ 2014.12.13 05:12:59 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote glances at the collected rings and raises his hands.
[ 2014.12.13 05:13:27 ] Johanes Beaumonte > May these Golden rings be Blessed Lord, and shine like these wuvers wuv, and bond these couples with bonds of platinum and wuv so that together, none may surmount or divide them. So say we all. Amen.
[ 2014.12.13 05:13:55 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "Amen."
[ 2014.12.13 05:14:21 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote lowers his hands slowly, as if radiating blessings.
[ 2014.12.13 05:14:50 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Ladies, you may give your Gentlemen their rings.
[ 2014.12.13 05:16:01 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote takes her father's ring, admiring it for a minute before giving him a smile of immeasurable thanks, and takes Reginalds hand to put the ring on.
[ 2014.12.13 05:16:36 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote gently glides the ring onto Tiger's finger, smiling adoringly at him as it settles into place.
[ 2014.12.13 05:17:00 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Gentlemen, you may your ladies their rings.
[ 2014.12.13 05:18:23 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote tilts his hand upwards and looks down, breaking eye contact with her to see the ring on his finger. Turning his hand over, he drops Shalee's ring into his other hand and slides it slowly onto her finger. As it settles in place, he looks back up t...
[ 2014.12.13 05:18:28 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > to meet her gaze.
[ 2014.12.13 05:19:48 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote looks at Reginald.
[ 2014.12.13 05:20:58 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote tilts her head as she gazes up at him, the corners of her mouth curled up. Her eyes are wide, lit with love. "I'm truly happy."
[ 2014.12.13 05:20:59 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote smiles happily as he gracefully takes Kat's hand. All of the inhibitions about moving too quickly seems to have washed away in the span of a few hours, and before he knows it, the ring is on Kat's finger. He returns his attention to her...
[ 2014.12.13 05:21:20 ] Reginald Sakakibara > ... emerald eyes accentuated by the passion of her copper hair.
[ 2014.12.13 05:21:54 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote nods with approval. He claspes his hands back together.
[ 2014.12.13 05:21:58 ] Johanes Beaumonte > Go with God and Be blessed. *He says in farewell. triumphant wedding music resounds*
[ 2014.12.13 05:22:56 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote smiles back at Shalee, happier than he's ever been before. "I am too, Shalee; my beautiful wife"
[ 2014.12.13 05:24:22 ] Shalee Lianne > I'm keeping my name.
[ 2014.12.13 05:24:55 ] Katerina Tzestu > /emote takes Reginald's hand, keeping close to him as she savors the moment. "I love you, Reginald."
[ 2014.12.13 05:25:10 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote chuckles and nods his head. "I never doubted that for a moment"
[ 2014.12.13 05:25:46 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote "And titles." She curls her fingers around his. "I guess this means we are officially on our honeymoon!"
[ 2014.12.13 05:27:07 ] Tigerfish Torpedo > /emote raises her hand to his lips and kisses it tenderly - pausing to admire the way his ring looks on her finger. "Anywhere you'd like to go? Just name it!"
[ 2014.12.13 05:28:00 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote squeezes Kat's hand, "I love you, Katerina." He adds, smiling widely, "I didn't say beforehand, but you look amazing, exactly as I might picture an angel. But then," he muses, "My eyes are unworthy to look upon you."
[ 2014.12.13 05:28:02 ] Johanes Beaumonte > /emote slips into the sacristry to disrobe and whatnot, leaving the couples to their happy day
