--Tengshe--
As the song plays, the back door to the chapel opens and everyone stands and turns towards the open door. Under the archway Shen and wrapped around his arm is his daughter. She is wearing the gown that she had bought back in Anvala, has a veil covering her face, and holding a bouquet of white roses. In front of the pair is Huan, who is holding the rings that Roland made. The three then start to walk down the aisle, with Huan in front being followed by the bride and father.
Once at the alter, Huan goes off to the side and takes his seat, while still holding the rings. Shen and Ny-Lee then comes next where Shen hugs his daughter before hand her hand over to Roland who takes it.
Holding both of her hands in his, Roland stares at his soon-to-be-wife.
Roland
"Wow, I mean... wow"
Ny-Lee giggles at him and places a finger to quite him.
Ny-Lee
"I know, but let go through this first."
"Eh hem."
The couple turn to see who made the cough. In front of them is the priest, who looks like he is ready to continue.
Priest
If everyone can take their seats, we may begin. Friends, Family, we are gathered here today to join this man and this woman in holy matrimony. They have been brought together by one of the gifts that have been granted to man, love. And the love that these two share is that one of the purest. If any man can show just cause, why they may not lawfully be joined together, let him now speak, or else hereafter for ever hold his peace."
Silence.
The priest then turns to Roland.
Roland, will you take this woman to be your wedded wife, to live together in holy matrimony? Will you love her, comfort her, honour, and keep her in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, keep thee only unto her, so long as you both shall live?
Roland
"I do."
Then he turns to Ny-Lee.
"Ny-Lee, will you take this man to be your wedded husband, to live together in holy matrimony? Will you love him, comfort him, honour, and keep him in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, keep thee only unto him, so long as you both shall live?
Ny-Lee
"I do."
Priest
"Roland, repeat after me. I, Roland, take Ny-Lee to my wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part; and thereto I plight thee my troth."
Roland repeats what the priest says.
Then he turns to Ny-Lee again.
Priest
"Ny-Lee, repeat after me. I, Ny-Lee, take Roland to my wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part; and thereto I give thee my troth."
This time, Ny-Lee repeats after him.
Priest
"Now, who has the rings."
Huan
"I have the rings."
Huan rises and moves towards the priest and presents the wedding bands. Roland then takes Ny-Lee ring and places it on her left ring finger. Ny-Lee does the same. The priest then takes both of their hands and join them together, he looks over the crowd.
Priest
"As Roland and Ny-Lee have consented together in holy wedlock, and have witnessed by this company, and thereto have given and pledged their troth, each to the other, and have declared the same by giving and receiving a ring, and by joining hands; I pronounce that they are man and wife. You may know kiss the bride."
The priest then let go of their hands, which Roland goes and unveil Ny-Lee and goes in for a passionate kiss. The entire room stands and give their applause as the newly couple goes down the aisle to the doorway. Everyone move from there seats and Liu speaks over everyone.
Liu
"If i can have your attention, the reception will be held in the main dance hall. The is where we will have dinner and the cutting of the cake."
Everyone then heads to the designated room. Once everyone has entered, all the single women crowd around as Ny-Lee goes to the middle of the room and toss her bouquet behind her. Screams can be heard as the many ladies jumped to grab the flowers, in the end, somehow Feng got tossed in the middle of the group and the women disperse and sees him with the flowers. He goes red form embarrassment as a few people sinkers, until a few of the ladies jump him for the flowers, which cause more laughter.
The wedding cake is then brought out. The cake is 5-tiered and was baked on the ships bakery. On top are miniature figures of a bride and groom. Roland and Ny-Lee goes over and are handed a knife, where they take the first slice. Roland then takes a fork and gives Ny-Lee the first bite, where she happily takes.
Soon everyone takes their seats, with the newly wed couple seated at the center, food is brought out and the cake sliced. The night goes on as a live band comes out and plays, and people dance, eat, and all around have a good time.
Yiski:
--Tengshe--
At the reception, Roland and Ny-Lee took the ceremonial first dance. The music was played by an orchestral hired by the cruise ship at Shen's request. The song itself was a fusion of Yeshan and Baronies influences.
Yiski, Lauren, Zill, and Jun'ko were sitting at a table watching the newlyweds have their dance. All were drinking Yeshan sake. Jun'ko looks at Yiski and Lauren and smiles at the signs of their rekindled relationship. Lauren and Yiski were sitting closely next to each other and holding hands on top of the table. Jun'ko giggles.
Jun'ko
"You two make for a cute couple."
Lauren
"Thank you. I know today is for them, but I can't help feeling so happy for myself."
Jun'ko
"I told you he just needed time."
Zill
"And maybe he needs a few smacks to the head to remind him how much of a bad idea this is."
Yiski and Lauren roll their eyes while Jun'ko gives a 'playful' elbow to Zill's ribs causing him to give a little 'oomph'. Eventually, the first song ended and all other couples, married or not, come to the floor and start dancing along with the newlyweds.
Zill
"You know what they're doing for their honeymoon?"
Yiski
"Headin' down to Cathedral for two weeks. Supposedly a festival bein' held there too."
The four watch the newlyweds for another song and laugh in their own fashion. Ny-Lee had her head buried into Roland's shoulder while Roland was talking or singing to her, but the four couldn't tell. Yiski and Zill glance at one another and nod causing their respective partner to look at one another in confusion. Simultaneously, Zill and Yiski rise from their seats and present their hand to their ladies.
Yiski & Zill
"Can you spare a dance?"
The girls chuckled and took their hands without hesitation. The girls look at each other and to their partners.
Lauren
"You sure you want to dance? I've heard you two aren't the best."
Yiski & Zill
"What's the worst that... could..."
Immediately the two men grimaced and faceplamed themselves. One saying it was bad enough. They now wondered what two could do.
BdrLineAzn:
--Tengshe--
From his table, BdrLine watches as Zill, Yiski, and their respective partners hit the dance floor.
BdrLine's Thoughts
"hmm this is going to be interesting."
And true to form, the two males 'danced' the night away. Safe to be sure, their bills maybe a little high. Dancing with their partners were fine enough, no broken toes or anything, can't say for the others around them.
"Ouch"
"Hey"
"Watch it there buddy."
Zill & Yiski
"Pardon"
"My bad"
"Sorry"
BdrLine just watches on and couldn't contain his laughter.
BdrLine
*laughter* "Gods they are so bad"
Feng
"Who you laughing at cous?"
Wipes a tear from his eyes.
BdrLine
"Sory just at a few friends and their dancing."
He points towards their general direction and soon Feng finds it amusing as well.
While still on the dance floor, Zill didn't notice a waiter behind him as he accidentally knock him and a tray of champagne over. Resulting in a huge crash. The rest of the ballroom turns to the spectacle and notices the mess.
Zill
"Sorry about that. Here."
Zill extends a hand to help the waiter up, not knowing that the champagne made the floor slippery. Once the man grabs to get up, he slips back down bringing Zill with him as well. This causes them to be knocked into Yiski and company. Soon a small section of the dance floor has people on their backside. Silence was heard around the room as everyone have their eyes at the group.
They at the head of the table Ny-Lee couldn't take it anymore and starts to clap and release her laughter. Everyone joins in as well as it was only an accident and they still have a reception to enjoy.
Sill laughing
BdrLine
"Oh what a sight."
Honeybadger:
Honeybadger turns to the men sitting at the bar
Honeybadger: "Sow where's Yiski and the others?"
Honeybadger sips his glass
Mill Wilkinson:
a whistle echoes from the street, a happy tune not notably affiliated with any of the known states of the Waste. The door opens, and a whistling man in his mid-twenties enters and takes his cap off. He is brandishing a couple of small wrenches and a push-measure on his belt, but more notable is the commanding presence of a pistol on his right hip. Grin-wrinkled green eyes observe the various crowd with interest before continuing towards the barkeep.
"Morjesta, good sir! Might I get something to drive away the dust that has clogged up my throat? We met some rather heavy sandstorms on our way here and I'd be more than delighted to feel moist again."
((Morjesta = Howdy in Finnish))
