The Reception

Apr 05, 2009 16:33

With the ceremony complete, they return to Titans base... where they are expecting many more individuals for the reception.

Garth is beaming, holding Tula's hand, as they enter the party.

He didn't want to be here. No, seriously, he didn't want to be here. This whole hero set thing wasn't his stuff. Zach was still trying to make sense of why he was trying this 'Titans South' business in the first place, and yet here he was at a wedding reception apparently open to all Titans.

Oy vey.

He strode up to the gift table and left a wrapped box. Just so long as Zanna didn't show up, this shouldn't be too bad.

For her part, Raven is keeping to the edge of the festivities. Her and wedding had a history. Her cloak is an odd color today, a light lilac.

Well, there's at least one face he doesn't mind. Zach grabs them each a glass of punch and walks up to her, holding one out for her. "Hello there miss." He smiled. "No date?"

blue_blackbird April 28 2009, 06:02:44 UTC

The older woman looks up at him with violet, bird-like eyes. "Date?"

greatest_zatara April 28 2009, 06:19:26 UTC

Zach nods, handing her the drink. "Yeah, date. I know it's a double standard, but it's usually more accepted for a guy to go stag than a woman to show up unescorted. No-one to have on your arm tonight?" He sipped his drink.

"It was likely not expected for me to appear at all." She's embarrassed she doesn't know the rules of these occasions after all these years.

greatest_zatara April 28 2009, 06:38:33 UTC

Zach tilts his head. "Why's that?"

blue_blackbird April 28 2009, 07:10:17 UTC

"The last time was at a wedding it was my own. The one before that, I caused a death and the pair never became lovers again."

greatest_zatara April 28 2009, 12:45:34 UTC

Zachary paused at that.

"I bet there's any number of prospective mother-in-laws that would pay a hefty premium for you at their weddings then." He smiles, bowing his head slightly to apologize for the joke.

blue_blackbird April 28 2009, 19:24:12 UTC

"Is that humor?" She's trying to see how death and destruction can be made such. Part of Zachary's charms.

greatest_zatara April 28 2009, 19:32:07 UTC

Zach blinks, then frowns slightly.

"I thought so; but it seems you disagree. Sorry."

blue_blackbird April 28 2009, 19:35:20 UTC

She takes his sleeve for fear he will leave. "It is not that. It is that I do not understand."

greatest_zatara April 28 2009, 19:36:54 UTC

Zach pauses as she grabs for him, then moves a bit closer, patting her hand reassuringly. "It's alright... What don't you understand? Lots of families don't necessarily approve of it when their kids get married. Just cracking a joke about that is all I was doing."

blue_blackbird April 28 2009, 19:51:31 UTC

"Any of it," she replies miserably. "The humor is the least of my confusion. In Azarath attachment was discouraged. Such ritual binding seems equally dangerous and joyful."

greatest_zatara April 28 2009, 20:08:17 UTC

Zach pauses, then smiles and shrugs. "Well.. you're not in Azerath now, are you?"

blue_blackbird April 28 2009, 20:10:47 UTC

"I have not been there for a long time."
