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!]

[Shrugging.]

It is something we are still committing to but the realization that there are more people than I had realized we know is surprising.

[Immune to your grump.]

[ Aymeric speaks fluent dragoon, it's true. This grump is nothing.]

That is not a surprise to anyone, if anything you have the gift of the gab.

You make it sound as if I am unable to resist holding my tongue. Tis true in certain matters.

I only speak truth in that regard. A shame your other skill sets don't quite match it.

[ A small jest if anything.]

This way is also more efficient, otherwise you would need to enlist help for all those letters I presume.

You might be surprised.

[Grin Grin]

There is quite a few to send...unless if I am hearing your idea of volunteering...?

[He knows that he will refuse but still. A bit of a jab.]

You're not one to slack, though I do wonder what you have been working on since your arrival here.

[ Wow. No. No thank you, Aymeric.]

I was not offering. It is not my problem you speak with too many people.

[Oh you know, crimes that would get anyone arrested but hey, gods and shinki need to investigate things too! For the good of people and to stop cults.]

A few things here and there.

[Maybe he needs to show Estinien his investigation journal. Normally this kind of thing is best left to the Scions but this time, he wants to do something not sitting at a desk.]

Quite true but that does not get you off the hook so easily. I do want you involved but you won't be in charge of invitations I can assure you.

[Best friend has dibs of being Best Man or whatever they call it here.]

As if that is not suspicious enough.

[ It's true, the investigation journal would definitely be a use, but at least Estinien knows that if Aymeric isn't going to say what he's been up to then it's best saved for an in person conversation. Otherwise there's no way of knowing who's listening on these "networks".

As for the best man thing, Estinien would be quietly thrilled with the usual huffing and grumbling.]


Then you'd best think of something apt that needs done.

All matters that I must do here.

[That is kind of a lie: he does answer prayers and works but that journal he keeps all his information from the investigations so far...are not meant for Heaven's eyes. Moreso when it says that he does not trust them. There's a bit of a reason why he does not give his full information here; if they knew the truth, everyone he knows might be in danger.]

I am sure I will be able to.

[He's gonna ask in person, not over this.]

I see it as stepping out of your comfort zone. To try something new.

[Shush you.]
