[Video] Evening of Day 16

[yilingdaddy]

[ Instead of your usual message, there's a cheerful Chinese young man with a red ribbon in his hair that the newcomers may have seen in a blur passing by. Those familiar with him are less likely to be surprised by the bright grin on his face though.

Nor by the wave he gives, black robes rustling around him before he finally speaks. ]

Hello! To everyone who has just arrived, welcome! To those who have been here a while, don't judge, this is important!

[ Oh no, he's actually bouncing a little. ]

In a few days, Lan Zhan and I are going to get married, and since we're all a family on this train, you're all invited!

A-Yuan is working on the cake, but if you have suggestions on other sweets you want to see but don't want to make, let him know!

[ He taps the side of his nose a moment, trying to think of what else he needs to say. ]

And someone - or someones! to help cook, since apparently I poison people by spice.

[ He brushes that off with a grin and bob of his head that's almost like a bow. ]

You can come find one of the three of us if you want to help, or pipe up here- though I can't guarantee I'll answer quickly. Much to do!

[ Another silly little wiggle of fingers and he steps back. ]

I would absolutely love to help cook! Just point me in the right direction and I'll do my best to make sure your wedding day is amazing.

[yilingdaddy]

[ Happily puts Evie's name on the list of chefs. ]

Thank you! I'm hoping for a bunch of different dishes so everyone has something good to eat.

[unfavorableinstigation]

[Well, if there ever was an excuse to pick up the mood in this place, this sure is one!

The brunette wizard looks tired, but pleased.]

I don't know if I'm that spectacular at cooking, but I can help with setting up!

[Video]

[yilingdaddy]

[ Weddings certainly have that effect~ ]

You don't have to be spectacular! But helping set everything up would be great.

[Video]

[faithfulsupport]

Congratulations on your impending nuptials. I would be delighted to assist with cooking along with my daughter Madoka.

[Video]

[yilingdaddy]

[ Aaaah, found families! Wuxian grins happily at Ignis. ]

Great! I'm not even allowed in the kitchen then, am I?

[ He'll pretend to pout. ]

[dredefulchilde]

I didn’t realize you could be married on this train. Huh.

[yilingdaddy]

Why not? We don't technically need that many people, the base ceremony we do is very simple.

[maxwellsdaemon]

[Leaning WAY too close to the screen, peering into the camera curiously because he's not sure if he's actually showing up or not. But once he figures that out he pulls back and gives a big ol grin.]

Just wanted to say congrats on the nups, man! Never been to a wedding before.

Video

[yilingdaddy]

[ Oh hey! Someone else who's done what he has! Wuxian grins and waves at him. ]

Thank you! I don't know how other cultures' ceremonies compare, but you're welcome to watch. Probably on these things, if everyone really does want to come.

[sensitiveapple]

A wedding?! [ Yeah, that's a squeal of delight. ]

Do you need help with your hair?

[yilingdaddy]

[ Great big grin! ]

If you don't mind? That would be great!

[ He probably could do it himself but...part of the fun is getting fussed over. ]

[springforth]

A wedding!

I could help with flowers. Or baking, I love to bake.

[yilingdaddy]

Yes! [ He's...going to be bouncing and a blur for a while...sorry Voidtreckers ]

Either or both would be great! I think someone else mentioned gold flowers, so if you could look for red ones? And if you want to help my son with baking, contact Lan Sizhui.

[so_dark_a_road]

Congratulations! I wish the two of you all the best.

And I'll help in some way. . . I guess I could help cook and bake. I promise I won't poison anybody. [ Grin. ] Oh, and I can bring my flute and make some music at the celebration.

Video then Action XD

[yilingdaddy]

Thank you!!

[ Oooh for this he's going to hunt you down, Curvo, and give you a hug. ]

If you could play for us, that would be great! I think baking and cooking are handled.

[laurefindil]

As I am new I was also going to offer to help you with your hair, but I see someone else has already volunteered. If I can help in any way, please let me know. Weddings are joyful times.

Ah...do you need flowers, by any chance? I am particularly fond of golden ones, myself.

[yilingdaddy]

Mmm...I think we have our hair taken care of. [ He smiles warmly anyway. ]

And we do! If you could find golden flowers, that would be great. I've asked someone else to look for red ones.

[marriedanidiot]

Nerdanel manages a real smile.

"A wedding! How lovely. I can certainly help with the cooking if you like."

Action

[yilingdaddy]

[ Nope. She's another one he comes to find in person. And she gets a tight hug. ]

I would ask you to walk with me, but I think Lady Wen would throw a fit. And A-Yuan's already going to stand with Lan Zhan.

Would you help me look over everything to make sure I haven't forgotten anything important?

[stealsyourheart]

"Niiiice. Congrats man! The train could use a proper party!"

[yilingdaddy]

Exactly!

[ Great big grin. ]

No explosives without getting me or Lan Zhan's approval in advance.

[ HE KNOWS YOU KAITO ]

[utulien_aure]

[He doesn't know these people, and this is about the last moment he feels like celebrating anyone's romances... but you know what? It's awful to take his bad mood out on other people.]

Congratulations. May the pair of you be very happy.

[yilingdaddy]

[ Wuxian doesn't know everyone on the train either, but why not make use of something as lovely as a wedding to help fix this? And to try and lighten the spirits of those who have lost people.

Another elf, he notes, and smiles warmly at him. ]

Thank you.

[happyends]

Is there going to be a wedding?

[ Guess who's immediately amazed. Although at least it's not like she's the only one.. But it's still so cool! An actual wedding! ]

I've never been to one before! B--But congratulations, that's so amazing..!

[yilingdaddy]

There is! You should talk to Ignis, he's going to be cooking and would probably like your help. [ A playful wink! ]

Thank you!

Video

[bethereprompto]

[Prompto turns on the ICP in his room wearing pj pants with yellow birds (or chocobos for those that know) on them and a loose, sleeveless t-shirt. He has a bright smile and waves, his right hand covered in some kind of cuff.]

Hey! Sorry I don't know you but congrats, man! That's awesome! I'd poison people too if I tried to cook but would you like someone to take pictures for you?

Video

[yilingdaddy]

[ Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute! Wuxian leans in when he sees this and clearly wishes he could get a closer look at what Prompto's wearing. But then forces himself to sit back to a normal distance and laughs. ]

You don't have to have talked to any of us before to come and have fun! It just means you'll have more people to meet and an easier way to break any tension!

[ His eyes go wide at the question he'd never have thought about. ]

Pictures? [ He goes a little quiet. ] They're a way to remember the day, right?

[radishlobbyist]

[ There is an unusually fond smile on Wen Qing's lips. ]

My sincere congratulations. I'm very happy for you and Hanguang-Jun. You can count on my help in whatever way you need me.

[yilingdaddy]

[ He smiles just as fondly back at her. ]

I have some ideas, mind if I come find you later?

[achickenformylove]

[WangJi can't help the faint smile when he replies]

Yes... it is probably better neither of us cook. Yours is too spicy and mine is too bland.

[yilingdaddy]

[ Even a small smile is a big deal from Lan Zhan! WuXian laughs at the factual tease. ]

You'll learn!

[yep_stilldead]

[ Ivy is SO EXCITED by this news. Even if it's strangers! ]

Oh! A wedding! How delightful!

I'd best not be allowed anywhere near the food, but do you need a flower girl? I would make a wonderful flower girl!

[sacrament_of_blood]

I extend to you my utmost congratulations, and if I understand you correctly, you are extending invitations to this joyous occasion to the whole train. I suppose when so many of us are strangers to each other, brought from different worlds, we are all together in the same experience.

I shall gladly attend. I take it you have the ceremony arranged that you will be using. I am quite interested in seeing the form it will take.
