Wedding Bells
Today was Rena and Apocalypse's wedding.
I was honored when Rena asked me to be the maid of honor, and I did everything I could to help make sure it was perfect for her.
Morning started out good, I met up with Rena early in the morning and helped her get ready, though I had to leave at one point to help poor Joaquin, he went and got knocked out and had all his stuff stolen again. I had to summon a piece of him from the past holding on to all the equpiment and items he had on him just before it was all stolen so he could get it back again. He's such a doll, honestly. And I love to hug him. :D
Moving on, I ended up leaving all of my own stuff back at my house in Sctoland, which kind of made decorating difficult. Autumn and I were talking at the Royal Stag Inn for a good while while we waited on Lorenzo. (He was the man of the hour, made everything possible.) Apocalypse was nice enough to get me something from K'Mala that I needed.
Well, Lorenzo teleported Autumn and I right to the spot where the wedding was being held so we could decorate! It was fun, except that Virgil came in and tried to kill Autumn, and she had to do all the decorating while I told her what to do since I wasn't able to use my magic. Lorenzo made chairs and stuff, it was beautiful. And it had a perfect mix of the bride and groom. (Lorenzo also brought us all our stuff to wear too, it was great. Though I doubt I'll ever wear a dress again. Don't tell anyone that I kind of liked it a little bit. It made me feel pretty in a silly way.)
Well the guests started arriving after we were all finished, the best man wasn't able to show but Autumn jumped in and filled the spot for the occasion! (-sigh- Pop thought I was a boy. I don't look that bad do I?)
Well, once the ceremony got started, and we got Bearbelly's Imp to shut up, I hate those stupid things, everything ran smoothly. There was a minor point where Percival had to be told to shut up, but other than that it was brilliant. It took a lot in me not to actually cry.
Congratulations guys. I hope it's a long, and happy life for the two of you together. Afterwards there was cake, tea, and champagne. Autumn said I could have some if I wanted, but I'm not allowed to get drunk. So I didn't.
Though I have coffee now.
I drink it in toast to Miss Lime occasionally. For her memory.
Speaking of memories...
I got rid of Manlius today. The last of my physical memories of him. I don't even have a picture, how harsh is that? Now it's just mental memories, and I'm sure those will fade in time. But it was hard, very, very hard to get rid of that silly little piece of paper.
Don't tell anyone. I cried for a long time after the wedding.
But I think it's over now. I think I might be free.
