[There are identical letters, slipped under the doors of the following: Hungary, Austria, Germany, Muscovy, Latvia, France, England, America, Pakistan, Roshia, Elaine, Wolfram, Hubb, Iceland, Nitori, Ritsuka, Ryohei, Rose, Nai, and Jean. They're sealed with wax, with two distinct impressions pressed into it--a shield with a crowned eagle on it, and

Wow, I'm so happy for both of you.

What do you wear to something like this?

[reckless_eagle]

Just something formal! I mean, it's like, not a wedding, just a formal announcement of intention to wed, so like, it doesn't have to be the nicest thing you own, but it should be nice.

And decent. [He adds this because he's seen what passes for clothing where you're from, missy 8|]

[gypsyjean]

I'm sure the closet can give me something. Like what you showed me before, right?

[Jooooiiin us Poland, you know you want a mini-skirt]

[reckless_eagle]

Yeah, that should totally do!

[Oh, for su--I mean no! A trap has to have his modesty!]

[idkmybfftony]

It's cool! It's like, pretty much just a party to celebrate getting engaged.

[2ndhandlion]

A wedding?

Well, at least some folks get to be happy.

[reckless_eagle]

Well, like, not a wedding yet. A betrothal. Y'know, like, an engagement. But yeah!

[2ndhandlion]

One normally expects a marriage to lead to a wedding.

[reckless_eagle]

Well, yeah, for sure! Just like, not quite yet.

[demiurgos_girl]

Awesome! Congratulations! I'm really looking forward to it!

[reckless_eagle]

Elaine, Elaine, Elaine! You totally have to help me pick what to wear!

[demiurgos_girl]

Okay, sure! [Nevermind that what she wears is usually skirts and dresses that end above her knees. Ah, the lack of modesty in the 21st century. Right Poland?]

[reckless_eagle]

Sweet! Like, when do you wanna get together and plan?

[beyourwarmth]

Um...Poland what does "ceremony" and "betrothal" mean?

[reckless_eagle]

Oh... I probs should have written yours differently. Ummm, ceremony's like, something fancy and special you do to mark a special day. And betrothal's when you agree that you're gonna marry someone!

[beyourwarmth]

Marry?

[reckless_eagle]

It's when two grown-ups like, decide that they love each other more than they love anyone else who's not family, and they want to raise a family together and kiss each other and grown-up stuff like that, so they make a promise to each other and to God that they'll always take care of each other and won't give that special kind of love to anyone else.
