Video

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!]

Really? What exactly do you like about his personality?

[ She doesn't know Leo at all yet, so there's plenty of juicy details she could still get here. And besides, there's nothing cuter than hearing people talk about the person they love. ]

That he is truthful. [Looking off screen for a moment before turning back.] Leo is not afraid of speaking his mind and it is what I love most about him; there are times where the truth is needed more than flowery words and he excels at speaking of it.

[His mind goes back to their conversation after the forest kidnappings; the fact that Aymeric refused to listen on rest until Leo had to tell him (as well as cry, that still hurts) harshly about it was more harmful than good. It was a wake up call he needed and is grateful for.]

[ So cute. That's definitely not an answer you hear often - or at least, not the first one you hear, and Minako smiles fondly as she listens to it. ]

And that also means you'll never have to worry about him lying to you, right? You can trust each other 100%!

Nor will I to him.

[There might be some things he leaves out but there are not any lies.]

That goes without saying! You've never seemed like the lying type to me.

[ Or so she says, as if they've spoken way more than just two times before this... But she's genuine about it regardless. ]

I am honored you think so highly of me.

[Well, he is a politician so...]

I only think so highly of you since it's the truth! [ Even though Minako practically flatters everyone aside from the few people she doesn't like, but.. shh.. She still means it! ]

I hope the wedding goes great!
