You never see it coming[Freedomliveson/The Elvenqueen]

Hey, I'm really sorry about yesterday, but life got in the way big time.
*sigh*

Anyway, things have calmed down today, so I'll be posting :)

Yeowza that's intense. Be sure to get you a reply on Tuesday, seeing as I have an all day event tomorrow.

"I've heard of them sparingly, but never enough to warrant any attention. I'll be sure to ask around, see if I can dig up more information." If Eve could identify this mangled mess as the Blackguard's work, Roche hated to think what else the Witcher had seen in her travels from the Blackguard.
"Throat burned by acid...that's a bit much, even for Nilfgaard. Makes me think that these Blackguard might not be natives. Wouldn't put it past Emyhr to hire-" Roche turned his head to find his normally confident and somewhat stoic friend dry-heaving in the left hand corner of the shack. Mixed in with the dry-heaving was...sobbing? Crying?
"Eve?! Eve, what's going on?" Nek had stayed just outside thankfully and was more than willing to dispose of the body, Roche nodding in approval as he attempted to help Eve straighten up.
"Was it the acid in the throat? Maybe causing a reaction? You've got enhanced senses, so maybe something is triggering..." No. No it didn't like that. Her face betrayed a mixture of what he perceived to be sorrow and disgust, but the Blue Stripes didn't want to infer too much, not before he could restore her senses.
"Come on, just..." He put an arm across her back, allowing one of hers to rest on his, giving him the ability to help her out of the shack and down towards the shore.
"Nek, water, now!" A few moments later the Blue Stripes soldier arrived with a canteen, Roche helping it to his companion's lips.
"There...there we go. Need any more?" He pulled a nearby crate over, helping her sit down.
"Eve...what happened?"

The procession came down the aisle seemingly in the slowest possible manner, Yerbol silently wishing he could use the Force to speed their movements. If only Renso had taught him time manipulation! Then, in this most dire of circumstances, he could bend time and space to ensure that he could get on with the bloody thing and actually get-

"Oh." He managed to squeak out under his breath as Aria made her appearance at the entrance to the garden, heads all swiveled in her direction as she approached the arch. All throughout the day he had forced himself to not tap into their bond and be nosy about how she was feeling, but at this particular moment, any kind of restraint he exhibited melted away at the sight of her. Nervous anxiety flooded his system along with bursts of unadulterated joy and happiness which then subsided into worrying about tripping or saying the wrong thing during the proceedings. It was honestly getting hard to tell what bits of thought and emotions belonged to who, but the Champion could only assume that they were both feeling the same things, so ownership didn't matter at this particular moment. What DID stick out as his own thought was how radiant she was, how every step she took seemed to emanate grace and beauty. To think that he would be married to HER for the rest of his life? That she, the daughter of one of the most powerful(he assumed) Sith Lords in recent history and a revered senator from Onderon, would willingly marry a guy from Taris...who also wanted to have her killed.

Boy was life funny.

When she arrived next to him, he took her right hand in his left, shooting her a gentle smile as Voldon began a short(hopefully) speech:
"As presiding Elder over this ceremony, I welcome all of you on behalf of not only the couple to be wed, but all Qyaari." The Battlemaster cleared his throat before continuing:
"This is a momentous occasion, one that I hope will set the example for all those in our Order and-" Yerbol stopped listening once Aria reached out to him, telling him not to change his mind. He chuckled internally, telling her:

Believe me, the only thing I might change my mind about is whether or not to interrupt Voldon so he could get on with the thing. Yerbol ran a thumb over the top of her hand, smile broadening as he told her;

You look beautiful, baby. So very beautiful. I wish I could look that good. A covert wink was managed by the Champion before Voldon turned his attention the couple, telling them both:

"What you will both be entering is a covenant, a binding together that will unite you for the rest of time. Whatever situation or condition you find yourselves in, your dedication must be unwavering, your respect enduring and your love constant throughout your lifetime together. You will share all that life has to offer and must allow those experiences to strengthen your bond." Voldon withdrew the wedding bands the couple had selected about a month ago from the interior lining of his robe, handing them to their opposite owners.
"Now, before these witnesses, before your Qyaari brethren, before the Force itself, you will have the opportunity to swear your devotion to each other." The Elder motioned to Yerbol, who coughed, attempting to clear the anxiety swelling in his throat.
"Ari..." Clearing his throat, he tried again:
"When we began this...well, whatever you call it, together, I didn't realize that the spunky little Sith that the Council assigned me would actually become a friend, let alone someone I deeply cared about." Chuckles from some of the audience members punctuated the light-hearted introduction, giving Yerbol a second to further collect his thoughts before he continued:
"You helped me realize through our relationship that any allegiance to an institution, a philosophy or a government didn't define a person's core, who they are underneath. You started off as a 'Sith', but then you became my best friend. Funny, charming, sweet, kind, compassionate, thoughtful...and most importantly, genuine. Even through all your training as a 'Sith', you allowed your true identity to shine through. And that's the Aria who I fell in love with, the one who I proudly will share my life with. I love you, Aria, and I promise my entire being to you. Forever." He slid the band on her ring finger, his own fingers shaking as his hands intertwined with hers.
"Now for you, Aria." Voldon prompted.

You never see it coming[Freedomliveson/The Elvenqueen]

Haha, right?! No one can fuss about people being too different after seeing these two go from bitter enemies to the closest relationship known to mankind.

Argh! I want to post today, but I have an appointment I need to get to. I'll post tomorrow! :D

You never see it coming[Freedomliveson/The Elvenqueen]

Wow...those two selections really capture the change they've gone through.

I FORGOT they wanted to kill each other THAT badly in the beginning. Now they're all snuggly and married xD

You never see it coming[Freedomliveson/The Elvenqueen]

I know I keep saying that, but we just keep reaffirming it in the thread xD
