Seventieth Entry [Video]

[reckless_eagle]

So like, I just realized, it's been a wicked long time since I talked to... ummm, most of you, I guess. My bad! I just kinda didn't feel like hanging out, so, whatever.

What's everyone been doing? I'm bored to the max. Not too psyched about the new event, though, if it's got to do with the mirrors.

[LOCKED FROM LIET]Umm, by the way, it's like,

You think that's what this next event is about? Guess that might make sense with those twins, actually.

[It takes a moment for her to add this next part, as she's trying to figure out how to make this PRIVATE.]

The first anniversary is traditionally paper. Well, in the states anyway. Do with that what you will. Seems like a sillier tradition than a turtle on a log but whatever, that's the way traditions are I guess.

[reckless_eagle]

Well, like, they were standing with one, and it was their fault last time the mirrors got to mess with us, right? I think that's totally it.

[Private]

For sure? God, that sounds kinda expensive... I mean, I guess I could pull that off here, but I wonder what people who can't afford it do?

[usskickass]

At least not all the mirrors are awful.

[Private.]

Paper ain't that expensive.

I think I've heard of people just doin' cards, though. Or maybe paper towels, from family members. For your, uh, husband, though, maybe a book would be nice?

[reckless_eagle]

Most of them suck pretty bad. I killed mine once, and I'm still mad at him...

[Private]

Paper's, like, wicked expensive in my time. But I guess a book could make sense here...

[Hello Poland, you have something in your lap. Might be Lithuania's head.]

[reckless_eagle]

[Poland doesn't mind that. He doesn't mind it at all. He pets Liet's hair softly, his fingers actually delicate for once.]

[watchful_knight]

[He's snoring lightly and probably nuzzling Poland's tummy a bit. It's a nice summer's day and their room is shady and comfortable and having his husband close is just very calming.]

[reckless_eagle]

[Poland feels much the same. He's been taking it easy a lot these past weeks, doing the things that are instinctive and natural and easy for him--caring for the horses, working on the vegetable garden, praying, fashion, and staying in with Liet. It's been very calming for him, very assuring, and he feels... quite at peace, really. He rubs Liet's shoulder a little, leaning back against the headboard and setting his device aside.]

What's an anniversary?

[reckless_eagle]

It's like, the day of the year when you got married!

...Okay, what part of that aren't you getting?

[audio]

[sadfreezingbrit]

It's been a while, hasn't it?

[ Philip remembers Poland well enough to have given some thought to his absence, but the less said about his efforts to keep in contact the better. He really does need to work on those Wonderland socialising skills. ]

...Since we talked, anywway. Not since the last mirror event. I really hope they don't cross again.

[ Wonderland socialising. Starting by clearing his throat and changing the subject to a more positive one. ]

But-- Anyway. I didn't even know you were married, I don't think.

[ He really hopes it's not just vital information that slipped his mind, though sadly he would not be surprised. ]

[audio]

[reckless_eagle]

Ages!

...Not long enough since I last saw the mirrors, though. Ugh, gag me with a spoon, right?

[M!Liet probably intends to gag him with something else entirely, but the less thought about that the better.]

You seriously didn't know? That's so weird! We had, like, a super big party. It was awesome~

[They planned their wedding for right before the end of RYOHEI'S EXTREME EVENT!!!; awesome hilarity ensued.]

[audio]

[sadfreezingbrit]

Right.

[ Philip couldn't agree more. His mirror harbours similarly unpleasant, if mercifully unambitious desires, hence-- Subject change. Instantly. ]

That wedding must've been just before I got here then. Shame I missed it.

[ He shakes his head, off the record on audio of course, but one does like to keep track of such things. ]

...I can't believe you actually got married in Wonderland though.

[ It's said with considerable awe. Marriage strikes Philip as ominous enough already, help of an alternate dimension not required. ]

[audio]

[reckless_eagle]

Aw, that's so lame. It was a really fab wedding! Liet looked super handsome, and everybody who was anybody was there ♥

Why wouldn't we? [He tilts his head at the, uh, microphone.] Like, with all the events and weird people and stuff around, we thought it'd be best for us to formalize our alliance. Plus, you know... L-Like, if the events made us do anything, it would've made things weird between us if we weren't properly married!

[Because... naive little medieval Catholics. They would've been too embarrassed to speak to each other ever again, honestly.]

[demiurgos_girl]

Sometimes I think I'm just going to die of boredom.

[reckless_eagle]

That'd be, like, the lamest death ever. I'd laugh at you. And then I'd have to eulogize for you, all, "Here lies Elaine, who was pretty chill until she just like, totally kicked it from boredom, sucks for us," and it'd be kinda hard to take seriously, right?

Also, we totes need to hang out more.

[demiurgos_girl]

[Laughs.] I've come this close once or twice in literature class.

Yes, we do. Wait, what if... why don't we have a fashion show!

[reckless_eagle]

Is that like, what it sounds like?

Because if it is, I am so totally for it, you have no idea!
