Day 19 - Time for a Wedding

Who: Lan WangJi, Wei WuXian and anyone else who wants to attend!
Where: Garden carriage and then gym car
When: Day 19 of Egret
What: Wedding! Wedding reception and lots of food.
Warnings: Pretty much up in the air. But there will likely a lot of PDA's from the wedding couple during the reception... because that's how they roll

Finally, it was Day 19, the day that WangJi and WuXian had chosen for their wedding.

Ceremony
Inside the garden, everything had been decorated in red and gold, traditional colors for a wedding in China. There were flowers and a low table set up.

As the ceremony begins, Lan WangJi and Wei WuXian enter with Lan Sizhui and Wen Qing as their attendants. The wedding clothes for WangJi and WuXian are also red, with designs of forest animals in the designs sewn in, including frogs and rabbits. All of this was courtesy of their friendly neighborhood spider. WuXian was also wearing a red veil over his hair and face. Even WangJi’s ever-present forehead ribbon was red today instead of white.

As the pair approached the table, WuXian on one side and WangJi on the other, they alternated bowing to each other three times before kneeling. With the help of their attendants, they each drank a cup of tea, which they used their long sleeves as though hiding that they were doing so behind them. Once they had put the cups down, WangJi reached up, pushing the veil back so that he could see WuXian’s face before removing the forehead ribbon he’d been wearing. Taking WuXian’s hand, he used to make kind of a loose knot between their two wrists, a Gusu Lan symbol that WuXian was his fated partner. Then as they carefully stood, WangJi leaned in to kiss WuXian before they both bowed to their attendants, thanks for assisting them and being there for them.

Reception
Following the wedding ceremony itself, the party then moved to the gym car, where the reception and feast were being held. Like the decorations for the wedding, it was also a lot of red and gold. To those who didn’t know beforehand, it would likely be obvious that red and gold here very important.

Lots of food cooked by wonderful volunteers from the train. Of course, there had to be dessert, which was the cake baked by the couple’s son, Lan Sizhui.

As the wedding couple, they were rather happily seated together of course. WangJi had since replaced the forehead ribbon on his head, but there was a high likelihood that sometime during the party WuXian was going to end up wearing it around his wrist.

"These ones! They have cheese in 'em!" He offers her one from a plate piled high.

"And that explains where they went," Nita can't help remarking - but she reaches for one all the same.

It is, in point of fact, delicious.

"Thanks," Nita says, after swallowing her first bite.

"You weren't planning on hoarding them, though, right?"

Sarai might have an opinion about that...

"They're delicious." He defends himself, and then laughs.

"No - Aoko likes them too, so I'm bringin her and the Detective some."

A nod. "Makes sense, though I wouldn't expect either of them to clear the plate..."

But then, they're all teenagers (even Conan); perhaps that's not as strange as it sounds.

"Just don't pull that trick with the cake. Doubt it'd be appreciated."

Not unless he'd warned the happy couple of his cake plans in advance.

"Cake's for the married couple to pass out." He waves a free hand.

"Eh, we'll give the spares to Peter. He's always hungry!"

As long as Kaito understands that...

"You've got a point there," Nita says.

"Though Gwen might get jealous if she finds you spoiling him!"

... What was with her and teasing couples? And this one indirectly! Hopefully neither Spider-Kit had overheard.

Nita glances over her shoulders (and then above her) just to be sure of that thought.

"She can have some too." He says magnamiously.

"Sharing is caring!"

"If they even find you in time," Nita retorts, proceeding to finish her pastry and reach for a second one.

"They probably should have put out carrots as a distraction, or something."

He mimes a wounded look.

"You say that as if you expect me to hide the plate!"
unfavorableinstigation: Nita looking directly at the viewer, mouth slightly open, as if she's in the middle of an important or unamused expression. (Focused)

"As long as it gets cleaned before it's put back in the kitchen," Nita says, assuming an overdramatic 'thinking' pose.

"No one'll probably mind that much."

"Cross my heart and hope to die~" He laughs.
