The tippy toddler, having lengthened out, losing the chub around her thighs and sacrificing some of the chubbiness of her fingers looked around awkwardly at the top of the little stone path that lead up to the handcrafted alter. She had been told a million times what to do, but she stood there frozen for a moment. She wanted to cry, but at the end of the path, she had seen her father, her uncle, and her aunt. Though only one out of the trio was actually blood, she'd learned to call them all her family. Max slowly began to creep towards them. Fistfuls of flowers were dropped lazily to the ground near her feet. She held no cadence in her step, with an even smaller amount of grace. The white dress that came to her knees was itchy and when hands that held flowers weren't doing their job, they were picking at fabric and stockings alike. She didn't like it' The uncomfortable child got to the end of the aisle, and once she saw that there were still flowers in her basket, she dumped them all over the ground at her father's feet. She shook the basket violently to assure that all pedals were removed. "Aw done," she mumbled and stomped over to Katan with her arms out.
Val lifted his hand to brim-out the sun. His face was stern and sharp and the fiery ropes of sun that were splintering through the leaves crept along the rigid crests of the man's cheeks and threw triangular shadows away from the light. Tall and stoic, hands now at ease near the midsection, Val turned as Max began her precession and be-pettlement of the path and lonely benches that sat wanting along the path's sides. Max arrived, shook her basket free and Val placed his big hand on her head and smiled. "Good job, kiddo," he said softly. A deep breath pushes his chest free of the cage and he expressed anxiety and some misconstrued dose of impatiences. He was of course not angry, not impatient; Valcroix was nervous. .
The best man struggled not to laugh throughout Max's perfect procession. There was a sort of carelessness that could only be present throughout those early stages of childhood, and the mini-immortal had surely mastered it. When Max indicated that she wanted to be picked up Katan didn't hesitate to lift the girl into his arms. "Are you excited to see mommy?" was whispered over with a grin. He definitely was.
And from behind the pedestal, high on the altar, the greasy head of The Good Reverend Gregory Kerlitch came rising. The man's short black hair was pasted to his brow from sweat, his eyes small and green, his cheeks rotund and pink and glistening. His eyes walk awkwardly across the thin gathering. Supernaturals, or so he thought. The tall man, the groom; red eyes and pious attitude: he was no man of God. And so advertised through his 'demands". "None of that "god" shit, none of that scripture. Marry me and my bride, smile, be happy about it, then be off, Mm?". Who approaches a man of the cloth is such a manner" Gregory snuck in a dirty look to the groom when he turned to the little flower girl. Strange folks, these. But the sight of the little one brings happiness to The Good Reverend's face, full and fat and jovial.
The bouquet of red roses was twisted around in her grip. She recognized the flower as the same type that Emlen had given her that night at the inn. Minoko's lips curved up into a smile. Her only other Rhy'Din wedding had been that of her sister, but the two occasions weren't even comparable. On this lovely day, every member of the wedding party seemed like they actually wanted to be there. Her nose lowered to the arrangement, and she inhaled deeply. Affection had a scent.
Loose waves cascaded over the strapless dress that clung around her rangy figure and accented her sophisticated shoulders. Martyr was naturally beautiful, not a one ever seen wearing make-up. So what happens when those violet eyes are surrounded with an earthly powder, and her already long, batty eyelashes are curled up and crimped to perfection with dark mascara" The immortal was stunning, and nervous, and clinging to the arm that helped her along the aisle of cobblestone. Excitement was rushing through her body, and thankfully the porcelain complexion was aided by a subtle painting of a similar color otherwise her entire face might have been as red as the reverend's bloated cheeks. On the tips of her toes, she walked carefully down the path that led to her future.
Accompanying the blushing bride arm-in-arm was the big brother himself. The man was dressed a suit of black, with a white button-down shirt beneath, and a red tie tucked beneath the thick jacket that was unsuitable for the weather, but one could believe that he'd taken out the extra lining of it. Even his hair was tame, and his face was clear of stubble. Despite his discomfort, he held a smile on his face. "You look amazing," he whispered as he shepherded her down the path.
The flower girl clung to Katan with arms and legs. Her face was red and puffy, but his words were a proven distraction to the child. "Yeah, is her wedding day?" Max was sure to whisper the too obvious statement as her legs wrapped around him as tight as they could, white Mary Janes scuffing against his suit. Then her head turned as the two figures caught her eye and she practically bounced with excitement. "Oh!" The girl yelped out, but remembered her manners and shrunk down with a look as if she'd be scolded. ?"There's Mommy?" Max whispered giving Katan a few rough pats to his jacket. "Daddy"!" Her excitement held underneath a whisper's cloak, "There's Mommy"!"
