Phase Twenty-One: Your Standard Fairy Tale Happy Ending

[The world has been saved, hopefully for the last time in a long time. The celebrations - and the mourning - have started, and in a lot of places are still continuing. But the victory isn't the only thing to celebrate - and with a lot of help, and a lot of favours, Laura and Lily have extended an invitation to the Chalice crew, past and present, to join them. If you were nearby, chances are the invitation was hand-delivered by a dutiful Servbot.]

1. The setup
[With the looming deadline of the closing portals, things move quickly! Invitations are sent, travel is arranged, a venue is prepared. What had been the White Chalice's Arboretum - now an open-air grove in what's set to become a lush forest - is the site of the ceremony itself, while the celebrations afterwards will take place in Gucun. There's a lot to be done to make ready. Are you helping, or seeking out one of the brides beforehand?]

2. The ceremony
[It's only fitting that Captain Smith should officiate. He's waiting at an arch set up by the flowerbeds of the Arboretum, where the happy couple met, where Laura's tended her memorial to her friends from before the Chalice and to those who've passed on since. Between the Kwan daughters, Epimetheus, and a brace of Servbots you shouldn't have any trouble finding your seat, even if Xue Yi is a little preoccupied ensuring Prometheus behaves. There's some time before the wedding party arrive, to talk amongst yourselves - or with some of the other guests present, who include Laura's overwhelmed-looking parents!]

3. The reception
[Of course, the real point of a wedding is the party afterwards! There's food, drink, and music - Miki pulled some strings, and Pit's showing how Skyworld does catering. After the recent battle, perhaps this is a chance to see some long-absent faces in more peaceful circumstances, or to say goodbye. Or are you just here for the embarrassing speeches?]

[This is a joint mingle post, open to dropped and retired characters as well! For all prompts, please specify whether it's Laura/Lily you want to talk reply, or others!]

Now that's a face I haven't seen in a long time.

[A Werter approaches from the shadows. He's not much for the thick of the crowd either.]

Ah, Samus, hello! I never expected to see you dressed like that.
a_human_work: (Happy)

[personal profile] a_human_work 2014-02-24 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
It's been quite a while, hasn't it?

[Werter is met with a happy smile.]

Things have been rather crazy for ordinary militaries since I left, so I can only imagine what it's been like for you guys. I'm happy to see that you're alright.

Not as advertised, is it.

I'll let them create an opinion of myself from firsthand experience, then.
fermionprincess: (Ahah!)

[personal profile] fermionprincess 2014-02-24 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Is it not lady Michelle Fournier, the herder of mass-produced kin of Prometheus!

[Look, it's the armored champion. Platemail is perfect wear for a wedding, right?]

Have you come to provide us with more of miniscule robots?

I wouldn't call Pandora miniscule...

[personal profile] a_human_work 2014-02-24 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
But, no, I'm just here for the wedding. It's great see that you're doing well. I was worried about you guys with all the stuff I heard over the last two years.

[The little angelic taskmaster turns at her, not recognizing her]

Hello! Are you from Laura's family? Excuse me, but this area is staff only for a bit! We'll have the next course out in a minute!
a_human_work: (Embarrassed)

[personal profile] a_human_work 2014-02-24 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, don't worry...I was just here to poach some snacks...And to have an excuse to get away from a party full of strangers for a bit.

Michelle Fournier. I did not know whether you had been invited or not.

[That voice is pretty much unmistakable. The figure it comes from, though is in a rather unsuual getup for her, her suit and tie making her look like the goddess of all loan sharks]
a_human_work: (Surprise)

[personal profile] a_human_work 2014-02-24 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Samus? It's good to see you...Also, what's with the suit? You look like the bodyguard of the president of Neo America.

[While surprised, she certainly didn't show any hints of being intimidated by the giant, alien woman.]
can_not_fly: (Determination)

[personal profile] can_not_fly 2014-02-24 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Well then, please be careful! [And indeed, as if on cue, one of the stoves flares nearby and is quickly subdued by the nearby cook. A kitchen this size at full activity is probably one of the most unsafe work environments ever, Michelle!] Yves! Careful with that oil! We don't want to burn anything! Go mash the garlics for the sauce, I'll keep an eye on the entrecote! [He looks at her again as he turns two slabs of meat in their pan] Sorry I can't talk to you much, as you can see, miss, it's kind of a busy day!

He should be able to guard his own body, I would say.

His mind, on the other hand, may need some periodical watching.

[Michelle made a rather trained duck to get out of the way of the flames as they flared up.]

Yeah, that's pretty easy to see...

[She moves a bit back to be out of the way of any further flames or busy cooks, while checking Pit an extra time.]

You're an actual angel, aren't you?

I did have to haul him to bed after he got too drunk, you know.

And having bodyguards is traditional for the job. I don't think they'd let him refuse to at least have them.
saikyocivrobo: (satisfied)

[personal profile] saikyocivrobo 2014-02-24 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
What can I say, Logos helped tremendously. It wasn't the only asset that ensured I'm standing here in one piece right now, but certainly a major one.

A few of the others sound a bit cliche.

[As they talk, though, there's a horrible, shrill shrieking sound nearby - and suddenly Michelle is going to find herself tackled and pinned to the ground by what looks like a huge monster, its lamprey-like mouth bearing straight on top her face!]

SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
a_human_work: (Happy)

[personal profile] a_human_work 2014-02-24 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm happy to have been of help.

I mean, I was out there fighting with the ordinary army as well, but Prometheus is rather more than that and you guys got all the most toughest parts.

What are those then? Things like courage, the support of others and similar?

You're right...I'd like to see the meeting when-

[personal profile] fermionprincess 2014-02-24 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Science is our greatest ally, the ultimate expression of humanity's shared spirit! With it on our side, White Chalice is truly undefeateble!

... Even if White Chalice itself is gone now.

[Before she can finish the sentence, the Frenchwoman finds herself on the floor, struggling to find a way to apply her combat training to wrest herself free from the thing above her. It didn't seem very productive to put it mildly.]
a_human_work: (Wtf)

[personal profile] a_human_work 2014-02-24 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Isn't that a pretty definite way to call it defeatable?

A lot of the aliens seemed pretty good at science too...
fermionprincess: (This is my Excellen impression)

[personal profile] fermionprincess 2014-02-24 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, details. Ours as a science has prevailed!
