badliifechoiice2 | You've been cordially invited...

It's been over three years since Kuroo Tetsurou and Tsukishima Kei first started going out, not too long after the reticent blond joined the former in the same college. Not a fact that they've been blaring from the rooftops, but something that neither have really hidden, either, especially after they moved in together around half a year into the relationship. The casual mention in conversation, the pictures and statuses on social media- it's never been a secret.

Still. For some, a few months ago, the wedding invitation coming in the mail was no doubt a surprise.

It's a western style wedding, to the surprise of no one. Traditional style just isn't in the budget for a pair of college students still working hard on their degrees, even with the help of their respective families. That means a quick ceremony before going elsewhere for reception, something made a lot easier by the fact that the ceremony isn't far from the hotel where the reception had been booked. Don't ask what witchcraft or connections the two of them managed for that.

Unsurprising considering the care both grooms can show off when it suits them, the reception area is classy, awash in cool colors with pale white lights guiding people to the various tables where placecards let them know who sits where. Of course, for the main wedding party consisting of the happy couple, their family, and the best men (Bokuto and Yamaguchi, to the surprise of no one), there's a table right at the front of it all where the light is brightest.

And not just because the new couple seem so happy about it all, either.

Everyone is welcome to enjoy the food which gets served out, the only tradition being sekihan while everything is a mix of Japanese and European recipes. Enjoy it all- this place is well practiced in holding wedding receptions, and so the food is pretty good, not to mention the open bar for the adults in attendance.

Of course, no wedding would be complete without a cake, white chocolate and strawberries put together expertly. Special attention to the toppers (at least before a certain groom steals the top portion away, and thus them with it): a small plastic black cat that looks extraordinarily pleased that's in direct contrast to the offensively yellow and inaccurate rubber stegosaurus besides it.

For those who don't have two left feet (or maybe even them if they simply don't care), a space has been cleared out and illuminated in the center while music plays. Newlyweds get the first dance, obviously, but after that, it's anyone's game, and you're more than free to make requests to the DJ.

It's a wedding. Enjoy yourselves, congratulate the couple, try not to get too drunk.

[OOC: With the exception of the two grooms (

[Asahi can't help but chuckle into his hand, even though it's bad manners to laugh at the groom at his own wedding.]

How often did you ever used to smile, Kei?

You say it like I never did it before. Didn’t I smile plenty of times when we attended school together?

[What do you mean devious pointed smirks and guffawing weren’t really smiles…]

Smirks don't count. I mean smiles like this one. [He clarifies, gesturing to Tsukishima's current expression.]

It’s just been stressful setting all of this up. Now I don’t have to worry about wedding planning. Honestly, it’s the worst.

[Caaaaasual topic change.]

You can thank Kuroo for the invitation decision, by the way. He still thinks he’s hilarious, and I haven’t had the heart to break the truth to him.

[He frowns as he tries to understand.]

You mean the design? I didn't see anything wrong with it..

...Asahi-san. Tsukishima. Think about it.

[3...2...1...]

Oh! The moon theme? I thought it was pretty and tasteful, though. It's not very overt!

Yeah… I wouldn’t have gone along with it if it was obnoxious like that. Honestly, I think the only reason the interior decorating is like it is would be because there’s no “classy” way for a cat theme, or you’d be seeing a lot more of that on Kuroo’s side.

[Apparently it’s always been his thing, and Nekoma just spurred it on harder.]

But that would be fitting, I think. A very serious wedding, with a kitten corner.

Don’t let him hear that, he’ll get disappointed that he didn’t think of that sooner and I’ll wake up to an apartment full of cats. He doesn’t pull any punches when he decides on something.

[As evidenced by the fact that, well. Here they are. At their wedding.]

Something tells me you wouldn't be too upset. I think you must have a soft spot for cats.

[A soft relaxed scoff.]

Just because I'm marrying one doesn't mean I have a soft spot for the whole species. Just the tomcat that wandered into my home and started eating all my food like a shameless stray.

Is that how you met? What a cute story. [He's joking of course.]

It’s absolutely how we met. Don’t let him tell you otherwise.

[Definitely not during high school or anything which started up a years-old crush, no not at all.]

Although speaking of strays coming into my house and eating all my food… You should come visit us sometime. Now that we’re finally done with wedding planning and all that, we might actually be able to use money for entertaining guests.

I'm not sure how I feel about being called a stray... but I would love to come and visit you when you'll have me.

I'll let you know when we have some spare time... We'll probably skip the honeymoon and just lay around our apartment for a couple weeks getting over this. At least, I know I will be.

[Snorting softly, he shakes his head.]

I didn't realize how many people we knew until we started sending out invitations.

"Getting over this"? You're not enjoying yourself?

Oh, I am. I mean, the cake is great, and there are people I haven’t gotten to seen in a while here.

[Also it’s one of the happiest days of his life and Kuroo is going to have a field day with the expressions he’ll be making every time he remembers this.]

But… I can only deal with so many people before I kind of want to go to sleep, honestly.

[....Also he might be crashing from all the stress up until this point too.]

S-Should I help you clear people out? Are you okay? Dizzy, or sick?

[Oh boy- he immediately puts his hands up in a calming gesture. BREATHE, ASAHI]

I don’t mean in a physical way, Asahi-san! I’m fine. Don’t worry about it.

Good... [he agreed somewhat warily.] I just. Know what it's like not to like crowds, so if you get anxious... tell someone.

...Do you want to leave for a while, then, Asahi-san? It’s fine if you need a minute.

Oh no no no, I'm fine! [He insists, waving his hands.]

If you’re sure… but let me know otherwise. I mean- [A relaxed shrug.] I’d be a pretty garbage host if I abandoned you.

It's your wedding!! It wouldn't be abandoning me!
