There is a wedding on the planet. You may know this because you were invited to this wedding by this little guy and it's a lovely ceremony! You can watch the couple get married, wether you know them or not, the whole fleet was invited.Even if they don't know you either.

Noctis was in all black and he was beside himself, the time had finally come and after seeing his beautiful bride he couldn't look away. The music was soft yet appropriate. Luna was beaming, holding onto Shiro's arm down the aisle until they were together and holding hands. The vows went on as if in another room. Noctis couldn't quite focus on them, he was fighting getting sucked into Luna's orbit and just kissing her prematurely. Distantly he heard his cue to repeat after the offician and he recited his vows word for word. Umbra had their rings ready for them. When he put Luna's on her finger he felt a tear spill down his cheek. He couldn't stop smiling. The officiant led Luna then and Noctis hung on every word. Her voice was melodic and soft. Then he had a ring on his finger and he felt himself crying again. He just looked at her, he officiant left them through the end, announcing it was over, they were married.

Noctis didn't wait for any cue, he pulled Luna in close and dipped her as they kissed.

They were laughing and crying and holding each other tight. They were in their own world for the time being. But the RECEPTION starts now. And that's what everyone really came for. There's alcohol, food in a buffet, and cake . Those of you at the cake tasting with them may notice the flavor you recommended is available as a donut! All of the suggested flavors are availalble, it was hard to decide who didn't get their favorite and what ONE flavor to make an entire cake out of. It didn't sit well with either of them.

Also sparklers There is a table with a few gifts on it, but it contains a large display of long sparklers with matches and a bucket of water saying "Please light up our night!"

SO Have at the reception everybody!

There is a: Dance floor with music booming, a buffet with delicious food and CAKE, There is BOOZE of all types and it's just flowing with no signs of stopping, and sparklers! Also dancing with the bride..... or getting a photo with the couple!

[But see, this ridiculous confidence of his is the sort of thing that makes her worry about what she's about to get herself into.]

... You're not gonna go totally overboard with this, are you?

[C'mon. You're in good hands. Speaking of, he takes hers and tugs her along towards the shuttle to take to the planet's surface.]

I wish I could, but we don't have time. This is going to have to be a rush job, but don't you worry, you're gonna look great.

[Oh no. Oh no, now she's worried about what that's supposed to mean.]

I don't have to look "great", I just have to look "okay". [She's kind of trying to tug her hand free, too.] I don't even know who's getting married!

Great, Pidge. Have some faith.

[He ruffles her hair with his free hand, because he can. Thankfully, it isn't long before they reach the surface, and he knows exactly where to go--the same place he got his own suit at. Lance is talking animatedly with the worker there once they walk in, gesturing to Pidge and helping pick out a few suits to try on.]

Dressing room. Ahora. I'll grab a shirt and tie that'll go.

[She's going to grumble and ramble at him the entire way. I should've said 'no.' Is anyone even gonna notice? All I wanted was some advice, Lance, we can totally turn around and go back. What if there's nothing in my size? What if we don't find anything I like? What if there isn't anything I'd look okay in? We can go back, seriously. I'll just stay behind, you guys go to the thing and have fun.

Of course, Lance doesn't listen (as usual), so now Pidge is just staring at the numerous suits in the shop and trying to understand what Lance is talking to the worker about, doing a fantastic impersonation of a deer caught in headlights. Even as he starts directing her to the dressing rooms, she just gives him the most alarmed look in the world.]

You know it doesn't have to go, just grab whatever. I don't even have to try it on, we can just buy it and leave.

Pidge.

[He frowns, grasping her by the shoulders.]

You asked for help, and you're getting my help. And you're going to look amazing with minimal effort. Just trust me, okay?

[She's just gonna... frown very stubbornly at Lance. But he can probably tell that she's also just very, very nervous about this.]

..I'm just-- I'm not good at this stuff, okay? Even back home, my mom bought the nicer clothes I had.

It's gonna be fine. You've got me now. And since when don't I look good?

[He reaches down and gives her shoulder a squeeze.]

Just change and let me work my magic.

[And this is the moment where Pidge has to just. Stop and stare at Lance for a second. That was the most sincere, non-blustery, un-Lance-like thing she's ever seen from him. And it was actually really nice.

Another second and Pidge manages a nod, her expression becoming something more like determination, and she turns on her heel toward the changing room.] Okay. Just-

Don't get too nuts. [And with that, she ducks into the stall to try on the suit Lance has picked out.]

[He has his genuine moments, alright. Even if he puts on airs most of the time. He smiles after her, noticing that look of determination, and dives right into picking out a shirt and tie that'll match the black suit and Pidge's complexion well. Green shirt, of course...

Lance can't deny that he's honestly elated to help Pidge get ready, even if it's last second.]

[Pidge is just going to quietly decide that he should be genuine more often. He's much easier to tolerate when he is.

At any rate, she's trying to get changed into this suit as quickly as possible. They are kind of on a time crunch, and she doesn't want to be the reason her friends don't show up on time. Once she's got the suit on, the jacket buttoned together over her undershirt, she decides it's safe to step out so Lance can evaluate.]

Okay, how's this? [The suit is still just the tiniest bit too big, but she doesn't seem to mind that at all.]

[He gives Pidge a good look up and down. She definitely pulls off wearing a suit, so he's glad for that, though he does note the ever so slight bagginess of it.]

Try on the other one quick, then we'll decide. I already have the shirt and tie all figured out.

[Pidge's brow furrows a little - mostly because it's kind of upsetting that she hadn't been able to get it in a single try - but then she nods and goes back into the changing booth.]

If you picked out a tie full of sequins, I'm disowning you.

You can't disown what you don't own!

[He grins, mentally calculating how much this is going to cost. Shiro did give them money for their shopping, and he's pretty certain this last minute purchase will still be covered by that allowance.]

Maybe not, but I can hurt you.

[It takes her another minute or two to get changed into the other suit, and yes, Pidge would definitely agree that it sits on her a little better than the other one did. So once she's done she steps out again, tugging on the sleeves a little bit as she presents the outfit to Lance.]

Better?

[Lance takes a good look at her when she gets out. The suit is definitely better fitting, and he walks over to poke and prod a bit to make sure of it. Satisfied, he gives Pidge a wide smile.]

Bam. We got it. See? Told you it wouldn't be too painful.

[Only because they're in a rush, though. If they had more time, he'd be parading Pidge through at least a dozen suits to find the right color and style.]

[She still looks a little anxious, turning to examine herself in the closest mirror. She tugs on the sleeves, smooths her hands over the front, twists around to see what the back looks like... And okay, Pidge will admit it doesn't look bad. Perfectly decent, actually, so her decision to trust Lance on this was well-founded. She's glad he didn't try to put her in something weirder just to be able to say that he did.

With a small sigh, she turns an even tinier, nervous smile toward him.] This time.

So what about the shirt and tie? You said you had something already?
