It was a huge temple atop a large hill. A Parthenon-like structure. That was where the wedding was being held. The massively tall ceiling, supported by marble columns, Greek-inspired reliefs carved into various surfaces, the whole nine yards. Even more impressive was the monolithic stature of Hera, the goddess of marriages and birth, placed at the far end of the temple, overlooking the valley below. A truly magnificent location that the couple had chosen.

Less magnificent was Koga. Yes, the man was dressed well. A navy blue suit, light blue shirt beneath a grey vest, brown dress shoes topped off with a burgundy tie. Hell, even his hair was done up and taken care of, combed up into a slightly messy pompadour of sorts. It was probably the only time anyone would ever see Koga looking this nice. The not-magnificent part was how the man was running around the temple shouting obscenities. "CRAP CRAP CRAP! YUKI WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?!" Why was Koga looking for his closest friend in the game? Well...that was a great question wasn't it?

She was in the room that the Priest had given her to get ready. She was staring at herself in the wall length mirror as she heard shouting outside. She sighed as she rubbed her temples, slightly concerned for Koga's sanity, if there was any left at least. Noctua looked at Tala who had been helping her get ready and she pointed to the outside, "You might want to check on your brother." She heard the younger woman leave before she looked back in the mirror.

She was wearing a long gown with a goddess kind of theme going on with it, there was a reason she wanted to get married on this floor after all. It wasn't hard for her to find something that she had liked. But now, she was stuck waiting for the moment when she could leave this room and not feel like she was just able to listen to the people outside lose their minds. Seriously, did any of them have sanity left?

Yukiro could hear Koga shouting for him all the way where he was. He couldn't believe it! He was already late for something so important! How on earth did Yukiro manage this, you ask? 

A few hours earlier...

Yukiro woke up to Yumi climbing onto his head. Wow, he was tired. The bachelor party must've gone way later than he'd thought it had... 
At that moment Yukiro's eyes found the time. Koga had asked for him to be there early, and it was nearly half an hour after when he was supposed to show up. 
Leaping to his feet Yukiro threw on his gear and dashed for the teleport platform at top speed. He nearly stampeded some poor bystanders, players and NPCs alike, in his mad dash. 

After a long, long run to the teleport platform and then from floor 17's teleport platform to where Koga said the wedding would be. Breathing hard and sweating slightly he came to a stop by Koga. Yukiro was wearing his usual gear, albeit slightly beat up, and his hair looked like a tornado had hit him. But he was there! 
"Sorry... Slept in... I'm here... Hah, what do you need?"

When her brother had told her that she was going to be apart of the wedding, she honestly didn't think that Noctua would have asked her to be the Maid of Honor. That was the biggest surprise of the day. But right now, she was being ushered out of the dressing room by Noctua to go and figure out what her brother's problem was. That was the biggest question wasn't it? There was something but no one knew. Don't kill her Koga, she loves you. But, as she walked over to where she had heard her brother screaming for Yukiro, she shook her head. "Koga, brother, calm down. Once the guests get here, things will start. Yukiro, fix him please. I really don't need to be trying to fix my brother and his bride. He's your job today."

Dictator Tala to the rescue, oh boy. She looked around though and nodded, "Besides, Noct's ready, just waiting." Waiting and probably nervous. Who wouldn't be nervous on a day like this. Either way, she went from staring at the two men to walking to the front of the cathedral, ready to start greeting the guests who were invitied. Can we please hurry this up, I really hate dresses.

[NIGHT 0]

Y'know, for a small wedding with only a handful of people... This is an awfully big place.

NIGHT had her head raised as she approached the building. A noise of displeasure, finding herself uncomfortable with the setting -- mostly on the account that she wasn't at all used to formal events like these. Donned upon her head was her crescent crafting pin, on the account that it just might make her look a bit more presentable. Together with a white buttoned shirt, a dark blazer, pants and bow tie, she hoped that the dress would at least pass for the day.

How do you even gamify a wedding? What're we supposed to do, clap in time to the bride's strides or something?

The woman gave a sheepish smile and the slightest nod over to Tala, uncertain of how to progress from the reception. "Uh, hey -- You look good today. Are we allowed to head in yet...?" A glance over to the parthenon's interior, trying not to look too hard for prosperity's sake. "'s not like I've been to weddings in Aincrad before, so..."

@Nephthys @Lessa @Bahr @Lonzo # i have fulfilled my duty. please take over, because i have no idea what my responsibilities actually are.

A wedding....for someone that she barely knew. She still didn't understand how or why she had been given an invite from Koga, but here she was, standing in front of the cathedral. She sighed as she looked down at Bast, "Let's go Bast. I don't think we can get out of this one." She didn't mind being there, but she was just nervous as hell. There were already people here whom she's never met, so this was very out of her comfort zone.

She looked at the other woman who seemed to be just as nervous as herself. "I think so, looks like the little one is beckoning us," which Tala was. She offered a small smile to NIGHT before she headed over to Tala and showed the invite from Koga and headed in. There were a lot of seats to choose from, so she did the first thing that she knew was going to be safe. She found a seat that she figured no one else would want to sit at, before she sat down. Bast, well the black panther decided to lay down at Neph's feet.

Lonzo came in with a suit and tie. He managed to find a rental shop for such an occasion. It felt strange donning something like this again. It had a gold like trim to it and if one would turn in the light just right a rose like pattern could be seen on the vest and some parts of the jacket and the pants. Likely a trick of how the game was programmed. It looked nice but something impossible in the real world. He saw NIGHT and felt a little confused on her gender once more but he took a careful stride to go over to her. Mostly out of familiarity. 
He looked around the place. It reminded him of the structures he saw in Greece on one of his vacations. He looked to the water fountains and listened to the bird calls that seemed to have a sing song tune.

"Nice day for a wedding. Pity I wasn't ready to have a banquette. Maybe I'll set up something for an after party later." he only hoped he had the food for it and that no one expected any buffs from it. "Want to go find some ladies with me NIGHT?" he asked curiously. 

Maybe he could mingle better with someone with him.

"Thanks for inviting me to come along with you.”

Lessa smiled up at Bahr, her wide eyes reflecting the clouds in the robin's egg blue sky. The air was warm, allowing her to wear her strapless dress with only a thin shawl. The column of purple fell mid-calf, and was offset by a pair of simple silver flats. The wrap shimmered with subtle sparkle, reminding Lessa of a night sky. Which, of course, reminded her of Bahr. The outfit selection process hadn't taken long at all once he'd agreed to escort her.

"To be honest with you, I don't really know any of them," she continued. "So maybe it’s a little weird that I’m going to this. But it's been a really long time since I went to an Aincrad wedding. And, well, my first time with..." A date? Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. "... someone else." Her smile grew, and there was a little extra pep in her step as they approached the massive venue. "I think it's going to be a lot of fun."

@Bahr

[Bahr 0]

Bahr's eyes scoured the venue in search of anyone who looked familiar, and he sighed when they failed to find any. "I know what you mean," he admitted to Lessa on an exhale, his eyes eyes closing as he let loose a desperate sigh that flowed from the tail end of the words. He'd chosen pretty casual attire, given the event they were going to. Fitted black slacks, black dress shoes with a polished shine poking out from the bottom. A plain white button up shirt that remained untucked, top button left open to reveal a small tattoo where his collarbones met. Covering the ivory shirt was an obsidian-soaked blazer, unbuttoned to allow motion but still fitted to form to his slim frame. 

He held out an arm for her to wrap hers around. "Don't gotta act like you're afraid to be close to me. You are my date, after all," he proclaimed with a wry grin, taking a peek at her out of the corner of his eye. When she took it, he led the pair into the gathering, keeping a lookout for anyone else around who had a mop of white hair much like his. Wait a second. Had he even told Lessa yet that he'd found one of his half-brothers in SAO?

Oh crap. He definitely hadn't. That was going to be awkward to explain on the spot.

Better to get it out now, he decided. "By the wayyy," he started, trying but failing to ease into the topic casually. "I might have been invited because... Uh... My half-brother is a part of all of this..."
