A Heart's Riddle: Direction of Affection~

awe but i do hae ideas. lets do a wedding

ooc:Sure, I'm up for the ideas! XD

I was grumbleing about a few servants taking too long. i hated relying on humans for things i could do myself like dressing or even making clothes but Utena and Mel-chan insisted they use mel-chan's design for a suit that i would wear at the wedding. i liked the effort and agreed not wanting to be rude but i had to wait... after their wedding i hoped to regain my powers with them at my side but i doubted it very much.

we returned to the palace and to save time i flew carrying both as they sat on my shoulders and back. the trip was fast and utena's recovery swift. the wedding was already halfway planned by the time utena fully recovered from the fight and everyone was chatting and gathering for the ceremony.

I smiled as we were getting a lift, it felt nice to be held on high shoulders. But how to go about bringing this up to the king. See, we'd been planning secretly between the three of us for this upcoming wedding. But the king was the last bit of the situation we needed to take care of. He needed to be informed of this event and also, to approve of it. And we've had trouble with this in the past. Hopefully, he may have had a change of heart.

OOC: Will one of you play the king or, shall I?

ooc:I could or bryant can.


bic:I looked happy while gazing out as I held on but giggling. This whole adventure was something else to me but I didn't mind at all. Everything was perfect to me and I couldn't wait for the later on wedding that would happen as we get back. Somehow, I was worried about my father and wonders where he could be. He might be with mother and my sister right now but I just hope he's alright and the same for everyone else.

OOC: not me im no king

BIC: OW WATCH MY TAIL IT"S NOT FOR DECORATION! my shout can be heard by all in the castle as can my footsteps as i finish dressing and storm out of the room. once alone, or i thought i was alone but in this castle people sneak up on me easy, i leaned against a wall and sigh looking at the preparations. i hope they are really happy... maybe this country don't need a hero like me anymore... i was depressed and wished my friends well on their journey thru life.

I looked at the wedding plans. It wasn't going to be a big wedding, and of course everyone in the palace seemed to know about it, other than the king. Everyone else was okay with it, but the one person we were keeping it from. I decided to be bold and finally walk up to ask him if it was alright that I marry his daughter. I needed to do this, "man" to man. I didn't need his daughter present, even if we were supposed to do this together.

I had my uniform adjusted just right, the one I always wore and finally cleared my throat as I knocked on the open door, entering into his room. He didn't seem too displeased to see me. That was a relief. But I hesitantly and carefully stepped closer to him.

"Good day sire."

I bowed.

OOC: Play the king Mel please?

ooc: Can do! *smiled* XD


bic:The king was sitting thinking about something to himself as his queen was by his side, patting his hand with her own. She looked up to see Utena but then at her king. "May we be alone, my queen?" he asked in a gentle tone but she nods getting up and leaves the room to see if others need help with something today. The king looked at Utena but his eyes seems a bit more calmer but still strong like a king. "Yes, Prince Utena? Is their something you wish to ask of me?" he sits his head up to sit straight on his throne.

i sit atop the highest tower of the palace watching things happen i wonder again if i should just leave this kingdom and let the new hero have her adventures.

"Yes, sir, actually there is something I wished to speak to you about. I um, you are well aware that I love your daughter very much. That I would never wrong her in any way and of course I took the curse mark from her, bore it on my own and then rid of it and the man who made it. I'm willing to go to that length to prove to you that I love her."

I stated firmly and reasonably. I tried to make eye contact with him the best I could, but he was a bit intimidating in a sense. I suppose if I didn't establish eye contact sooner he'd think I was joking, lying or uncertain. Or worse, that I had a hidden agenda. And none of those were true. Could I really help the fact that I was nervous?

"Anyways, sire, I wanted to request, or rather to tell you that we're getting married. But somehow I didn't feel right without your permission. Marrying in secret away from you, wouldn't be right, well, I mean. I just wanted to respect you and tell you upright. You know, be a man about things."

I had to admit, I opened myself up for that one. I wasn't a man, ridicule might come my way. But, I stood there and gulped, awaiting his possible answer. This could go one of two ways, and either way I'd take.

The king said nothing but just looked at Utena as his gazed remained somehow silent and unknown. Hearing all of this, he didn't know if she was speaking the truth but the remember from a guard of what he saw during his stakeout later on that day. Rubbing his chin using his hand, he looked right at Utena once more but ready to speak. "Hmmmm, I still don't understand why you wish to marry my daughter even if you are a female. Though, you did save her from a curse that even I didn't know of."

Being silent again, he sighed before standing up. "Well, I know my daughter would not be happy but......would it be alright to be their for her wedding?"

OOC: Sorry Bryant, I posted before you, I'll let Mel post again after this post and then you post, and then I will to get things back on track.

"So wait, you're ... actually going to let me marry her?"

I blinked. The things he was saying were surprisingly. He was also being rather reasonable and kind, and taking this subject a little lighter than last time. The king had always been a stickler for not only his daughter and her safety and happiness, but for the rules of the kingdom. The, all couples shall be traditional, rule. And so was he to turn his back on his kingdom he so wonderfully ruled for all those years by letting someone of royal blood within his own family marry her love whom so happened to be the same gender? Or was he going to do the right thing and allow them to marry and either suspend the rule or change it...? Well, I'd find out.

A small smile started to creep in on my face in wonder. Was he really being serious?

The king then walks down from his throne then walks over to Utena before gently looking quiet. "You remind me of someone I knew back when I was close to your age. He had that same feeling for someone he loved but his lover got married to another woman and he was sad ever since. Seeing you trying to marry my daughter, it reminds me of him." Then he shows a kind smile before thinking.

"If you wish to marry my daughter, you may but just be sure to keep her happy alright? I don't want her to be sad like my friend was years ago. So do you accept that?" he looked at Utena but waited for her reply.

OOC: Lol its okay im watching the kingdom and deciding on wheather or not to leave its protection to you guys. and go look for trouble in the universe.

BIC: i sat thinking sensing a neabvy cloud of monsters swarming like locusts then sensed a demon lord being crowned one of substantial power and tenacity, he would have to be dealt with after i got my powers because he was too strong without my golden mode powers taken from a separate creature. i thought also about letting then into the vualt of the ancients where books of everykind gathered as well as treasures and creatures.

"O-Of course, sir. Anything."

I said, wide-eyed and surprised, but most of all, ecstatic. Was he really going to allow me to marry her with no catch? I mean, he had grown, I'd hand it to the guy, he most definitely did. He was a lot more open and accepting now of this marriage and this relationship, this lifestyle. I suppose he realized who was he to stand in true love's way? And I guess he might have been a little grateful for taking the curse mark off of his daughter. . . Well I would have done that anyway eventually. I just had the right timing with it. I did love her, and I wanted to prove it. And finally I would.

"I promise sir! I won't let you down!"

I saluted happily and began to run off to tell Mel the good news, but bonked my head on the door's frame on the way out. I blinked a few times and shook my head to get some sense back into me, before dashing off for real this time, and missing the door's frame.

"*laughs* Yep, just like my friend. Though, he would sometimes hit the brick wall." the king thinks before shaking his head and goes to find his wife as she was somewhere or with Me. I was helping the others with the wedding while laughing, seeing a few streamers landing on my little sister and mother.

"Easy dear! We don't need you falling!"

"Yes mother!"I was happy right now but Melli just giggled throwing the streamers into the sky.

i sighed and vanished leaving a note: to mel-chan and tena, sorry guys im not good with words. im going to get my magic back now so i can assist in the dance. also my elemental powers too. ill see you all tonight in mel-chan's garden.

"Mel! Mel!"

I called out as I ran down every corridor looking and searching for my bride to be. This was an amazing moment!

the guards hear your voice but moves out the way as I heard it too, looking around. "Utena! I'm in the main throne room!!!!!!" I smiled getting down off a ladder but I was wondering why she was so happy.
