From: Leo (Odin)
Date: Jan. 20th


[As the camera clicks on, you can hear Leo muttering:]

Do we really have to do this, Aymeric? We could simply send invitations out individually when it’s closer to time.

Was it not your suggestion that we do this?

[It’s said quietly as well but the tone is gentle.]

There is nothing to worry about. We will do this together.

[Leo sighs and looks at the camera, trying to smile. It’s obvious he’s kind of regretting this decision, though.]

Right. For those of you who don’t know us, this message isn’t necessarily for you but--I am Leo, currently the god Odin.

And I am Aymeric de Borel, also assigned as a god. [What? God name ain’t important here, the actual one is.]

We--I--decided that this would perhaps be the fastest way of getting the news out. Aymeric and I…

[Deep breath.]

We’ll be married in the spring.

[It’s not shown on camera but one of Aymeric’s hands covers Leo’s, gently squeezing it as a way of reassuring him. He knows how they both are, not the type to make big announcements such as this but also wanting to share how they feel about each other. And with all the bad happening lately, there needed to be some sort of good. But they can see the elezen’s expression as he smiles warmly.

Leo appreciates the comfort, Aymeric, but he’d appreciate you saying something a little more.]


Invitations will obviously be sent out closer to the date. We would have said something sooner, but…

Given the circumstances of the recent events, it seemed a bit out of place to speak of it. However, we wished to tell our friends and fellow comrades of our news as soon as we were able. We are still planning for the ceremony and celebration so we are unable to answer much on that front.
[This is so different than trying to speak on politics or try to sway a group of people; he can do that with his eyes shut. No, this much more nerve wracking and he’s giving a mental prayer to Halone to give him strength not to screw this up.

They both suck at this, huh?]


Like I said, this is mostly for those of you who know us...or rather Aymeric. [He’s seen Aymeric’s contact list, okay.] Hopefully when the time comes, you’ll join us on our wedding day. ...gods that’s weird to say.

A moment I am looking forward to with great fervor.

[Sap. Leo gives Aymeric a slightly dopey look before he turns to the camera.

Thank you for your time.

[End feed.]


[OOC: Both will be responding!]

[ Yon'a's mouth had dropped open at the start of this message, but by the time the pair of them are done, she's ecstatic, practically with stars in her eyes. ]

You're getting married! Oh, that's wonderful news! I'm so happy for you both!

I would, if you wouldn't mind me being there!

Considering Yoon is also named by Aymeric, I assumed his invitation would have priority over mine. But I'm sure Jae-Ha will be thrilled to attend as well.

Tis something we are looking forward to. It would be folly to not invite you and your shinki to come.

[Like seriously, he might be listening in on the conversation between her and Leo but the invitations are a more formal matter. That and she counts as family so there.]

[ Her expression warms when Aymeric responds, fondness audible in her voice. ]

I'm so happy for you Aymeric. I'm sure Yoon will be thrilled as well. Jae-Ha and I, of course, would also be delighted to attend and celebrate with you.

Knowing Yoon, he may ask to help out. But he does need to be able to relax once in awhile and enjoy a day; a lesson I had to learn here...and sometimes need a reminder.

[Sometimes he falls into that overworking mindset but he gets better when someone tells him once or twice to stop and take a breather.]

I am not sure I have met this Jae-Ha but they must be an excellent person.

[ Yona just laughs at this, her eyes glinting with amusement. ] I don't know, Aymeric. Getting Yoon to relax and not fuss might be a harder task than even the pair of us can overcome.

[ It's in his nature, after all. And it makes him happy, she knows, even if she does worry that sometimes he might overdo it. ]

He arrived more recently, so your paths may not have crossed yet, but he's my other shinki. [ Even if there's a flicker of sadness in her tone at that. ]
onedrinkwithme: (Smile (Kind))

I look forward to the challenge.

[Sooner or later, the man in question will see this and probably freak out. And don't think he didn't catch that slight tone change.]

Well then, my statement still stands. I look forward to meeting this man.
