“To be fair, you’ve already been paid.” Damian raised an amused eyebrow at Catori, nodding his head towards the carriage where the pouch with her 1,000 crowns sat.

"Oh, that is a fair point. Quite a bit of money, too." Catori made a face as she glanced towards the carriage.

“Part if it is for our wedding expenses.” Damian reminded lightly, chewing his lip. “Do we any other thoughts besides flame resistant dress? Do I need to be flame resistant too?”

"Uh, no, you should be fine. Just be prepared to…take a step back?" Catori's cheeks flushed, and she looked away.

“Do you have any idea what you want your dress to look like?” Damian had completely calmed from his earlier flashback, now contented with fantasizing about their wedding.

"No clue. Just something simple, I guess." Catori bit her lip. She hadn't ever really thought about marriage, preferring to ignore the inevitable.

“You’ll need something amber, a pendent maybe? Something to accent your eyes.” Damian mused, crunching on some hardtack now.

"Accent, huh? Not a pendant, that spot is reserved. Any other ideas?" Catori found herself interested in this planning, something a bit unexpected.
((beeeeedtiiiiiime sooooooon. I shall see you in the morn my dude

Goodnight!))

Damian didn’t want to interfere with any cultural customs Catori had, so he didn’t make any move to protest. “Perhaps we can locate some eyeshadow for you. Your eyes are enchanting. It’d be a shame not to show them off.”

Catori wasn't quite sure how to respond to that statement, so she went with something safer. "I believe I've used it a few times, eyeshadow. Kind of feels funny at first."

“Well, I suppose it’s up to you.” Damian huffed, peaceably eating as they talked. “Should I assume Copper will be flying our rings to us?”

"That would be adorable." Catori laughed happily. "I could even try and convince her to wear a small hat."

Damian smiled, rolling his eyes. “Whatever you wish. Can I assume your family will be coming?”

"Absolutely. It would be practically impossible to keep them from coming." She snorted. "It's going to be incredibly chaotic, most likely. How about your family?"

“My father, certainly. The Queen as well. I am hesitant to invite any of my brothers.” Damian furrowed his eyebrows in thought as he considered this.

Lotus stepped into the carriage making sure her illusion lifted her skirt up as she entered. She noticed Pine wasn't looking at her, once he had entered she asked, "Is something wrong Pine?"

"Nothing," She said softly, shaking her head, "At least my brother got out of there in time…I want to get away as well, that's why my mother offered for me to come here..If I marry a prince I don't have to go back."

Pine looked down at his feet and nodded, walking back to the carriage. He opened Lotus's door again.
"And you're not allowed to do anything about it, huh," Victor said quietly.

(Because these got buried by the Catori and Damien fluff.)

(THANK YOU sorry)
Pine glanced up, shut the door, got in the other side. "No." He put his head back on his knees as the carriage took off again.

"What about your mother?"

(Lol, your welcome!)

Lotus gave him a curious look. He wasn't acting as she was used to. Then again she didn't know him that well, "Are you positive? You don't seem okay."

Alexia sighed, "I don't know, she said that she'd be fine, that she was planning to talk to my father." Her fingers were turning back to her normal skin color very slowly as she calmed down.

((sksksksk soRRY

Pine's brows lowered but his mouth curled up. "I'm fine. Don't worry." He turned quickly to look out the window as they left the forest. "We're coming up to another town. We can stop there if you're still tired, okay?"
Victor nodded. "What do you think he'll say?"

Sorry guys! @thighhighcrocs and I somehow manage to be on at the same time a lot. We can totally slow it down a bit!))

((we could even take it to the pm if need be

"Nothing good.." She said, shaking her head slightly, "But enough about my family, that's a snowshoe rabbit hole that I don't want to go down right now, it would take too long."
