December Catch-All
Who: Alice and various (closed and open prompts available)
When: Throughout Deceuer
Where: Throughout the city
What: Girl is getting bonded and also enjoying the holidays!
Warnings: CRINGY SOFT PORN READINGS and eventually alcohol consumption in one thread; probability of cavity-inducing feels in another
I. Written In The Stars (Closed to Dorian)
[Alice kind of regrets telling Dorian about her impending bonding with Yuri.
He's insisted on taking her out beforehand, which has somehow ended up with the two of them standing side-by-side holding scripts and being watched by two total strangers expectantly. One of them is giving character motivations and instructions--you're a young ingenue, he's the dashing and mysterious beneficiary of your father, let the feelings flow through you, feel free to ad lib, etc.--but Alice herself isn't paying them much attention. Instead, she leans in closer to Dorian and speaks to him in an urgent whisper.]
Are you sure this is a good idea for us to do? What does this have to do with Yuri and I?
II. 'Til Death Do Us Part (Again) (Closed to Yuri)
[Bonding isn't quite marriage, but it's the closest thing to the holy sacrament with which Alice is familiar. It's a joining of souls, a combination of magics, a lifelong committment to love and serve one another. It goes perhaps a bit further, what with the post-bonding effects and all, but honestly that's another reason to approach the ceremony with the proper amount of solemnity.
Alice hasn't been in the city long enough to be able to afford the ostentatious wedding fashions available in the city's shopping district, and quite frankly those seem to be a bit too much for her tastes anyway. She's settled on a relatively simple white gown adorned with lace that's much more similar to the fashions she knows from back home than what's common here. Her hair is, as always, braided up behind her head, although it's missing the usual bow.
At the moment, she's standing alone outside of the Coven building buried under a warm cloak. She had left Yuri to his own devices to get ready, not wanting to stress him out. Goodness knows she has butterflies herself, despite wanting this more than anything, so she can only imagine how he feels.
So she waits and watches the snow flurry downward.]
III. Deck the Halls (Open to all!)
[Back in her usual attire--although still buried under the cloak--Alice is outside of the small home she and Yuri share putting up all manner of greenery adorned with red ribbons.
Decorations for Modranicht are, luckily, very similar to Christmas decorations back home. It's been a very, very long time since Alice has been fortunate enough to actually stop and enjoy the holiday. Until recently, it had been because she and her father often traveled for Vatican business. This past year... well, it's better not to think about that at all and focus on the present.
Occasionally, Alice will stop to take a sip of the tea she brewed herself to try and keep a bit warm. She'd placed a saucer on top of the cup in hopes that it would keep warmer for longer, but that only delayed the inevitable for a little while. Either way, she keeps drinking it after it's gone cold.
Feel free to approach and offer assistance or even just a bit of company. A big part of the holidays is about human connection, after all!
