Incerting the last few pins to hold the veil in place, Mali agreed it was time to head down. Stepping back from Celise and giving her a once over, "Lovely,"

~meanwhile with the men~
Jules adjusted his tie and sighed as his younger brother fussed with attaching the medals he won during the war. "Léon, enough, I don't need all those medals pinned on," he said, sounding exasperated. He shot the prince a Look. "Don't you start laughing. You have enough of a fruit salad on your own."

"A fruit salad? Think of how the great leaders of the past would cringe if they hear you call their pride and joys a fruit salad." Strongheart commented with a laugh.

"yeah, yeah," Jules answered absently. "Besides, I don't think I need to wear half of them. So I was in the war. Point?" he said, fingering a few of the badges. He glanced up at Strongheart. "Your tie's on crooked."

"Think of it this way, Mali can use them to track you down in all the people that are going to be there. The light reflecting off them will be like a beacon. Speaking of Mali, are you still hiding behind your excuse that you don't want to tie anyone to that chair or are you going to ask her to marry you?" Strongheart said as he stepped up to the mirror and started to retie his tie.

Jules pulled a small box out of his jacket pocket. "I have the ring... I just need to figure out how I want to do this..."

"Just don't wait to long in your planning of how to ask, Byrant's back and just as determined." Strongheart commented, the one bad thing about his marrying Celise is that it ment Byrant had an excuse to come back to town. "Better?" Strongheart asked turning and letting Jules inspect his tie.

"I spoke to Shining Glory. The minute Byrant takes a step towards Mali, he's getting turned into a rabbit," Jules said smugly. He nodded. "Much."

"A rabbit?" Strongheart laughed at that one, "I see you've been preparing for this."

"I've been preparing for it since Mali and I became serious," he said quietly. "I just wish I could do more for her. But..." he shrugged a little. "Well, at least the only two people who would have problems with your wedding aren't here. Because you know Lady still loves you and well, we all know Ravenwaves..."

"True on that and Shining Glory is already working on ways to keep Ravenwaves away from here, as she is likely to try something. About the only thing more you can do for Mali is to marry her and get her away from Bryant and her mother. I don't know if Lady is attending or not.."

"Honestly, would you be upset if she didn't show?" Jules asked, looking at his friend and leader.

"No, it may be better if she wasn't here." Strongheart admitted

"Because you know she would object, and that would just kill Celise," Jules said quietly. "She's terrified that this is a joke on her. That at some point, you're going to say that you were only joking and that you really love Lady." He paused and looked away. "Maybe you should defy tradition and seek out Celise.."

"Don't think I haven't thought about it," Strongheart commented and about the only reason he hadn't actually done it so far was with Ravenwaves still around he wasn't willing to chance bad luck of any kind.
