[Giselle is standing in the hallway, looking at her hand. Occasionally, she looks up to her left, puts a hand on her own waist, or appears to nuzzle something. She's beaming from ear to ear.

However, in her own mind, she's standing in the castle, wearing her wedding dress, Edward by her side and Pip on her hand.]Oh, Pip, I'm so glad you and

[Randomly walking by, Lavi freezes when he sees this beautiful woman-- STRIKE~!-- talking to and smiling at a wall?]

..

[He walks to stand in her line of sight and waves a hand in front of her face.] Helllooo~?

[shes_yourlove]

[Giselle looks away from Edward and smiles at Lavi, whom she sees in full Andalasian livery.]

Hello! Are you here to escort me to the chapel?

[strike_for_you]

Er, no.

[It doesn't take him long to realize she must be one of the people "acting strangely" like the House had said. He wonders if slowly backing away and leaving would be the right thing to do.. though maybe he could try playing along first?]

Um. You getting married?

[shes_yourlove]

[Giselle giggles.]

Of course~ Can't you tell?

[She gestures to her dress - she thinks it looks like this, but is actually this.]

And to the most wonderful man in the kingdom! Right, Edward?

[She turns back to "Edward," beaming, and nuzzles against him.]

[strike_for_you]

Oooh, I see~

[No, he doesn't see anything. Except a summer dress. Kingdom? Now might be a good time to leave.]

Well~! Congratulations to you and, er, Edward. I'll just leave you two to get married now.

[He gives a strained smile and turns to leave after having seen enough of her nuzzling thin air. This House was a cruel, cruel place.]

[shes_yourlove]

I made it myself, I'm glad you like it!

[She beams.]

All right! You'll be at the chapel, won't you? Twelve o'clock sharp! I wouldn't want any of my friends to miss it!

[strike_for_you]

[He looks over his shoulder and smiles, nodding his head and waving. Friend? They didn't even know each other's names!]

Of course! I'll see you there~!

[shes_yourlove]

[Giselle waves back, still beaming, then looks at Pip.]

He was so kind, wasn't he, Pip? What a sweet guy. We'll have to give him a really good table at the ball!
