Welcome to Gaia! ::

"What!? Noooooooo~" Hel replied with a laugh, and immediately turned back to Seiji to switch away from the conversation of cougars and pumas and what not.

"How much longer til gradudation? Any idea what are you doing after? Oh! Speaking of--" She turned back to Junko. "What are you doing now that you have graduated? Aside from concerning yourself with a home!"

A curious look was sent Seiji's way when Junko caught his tone. Her brow raised, eyes widening slightly as she tilted her head. Was he not sure about his decision anymore? It was fine if he wasn't, it was his career to decide, she would support him if he changed his mind. But she wouldn't ask directly with company. Instead Junko reached for his hand again and thread her fingers between his with a cheerful little hum.

"Well! I took a long, long trip to the human world. It was really fun. Did a lot of scaring, got a ton of inspiration for my own designs! Humans actually dress really well!" She paused, clearly hesitating for a moment. "Well..not all of them...but some of them! I almost wish I could sell my designs to humans because..they...kind of need it..." Shaking her head, Junko continued on with a bright smile. "And I've been using that loom you gave me! It's helped me so much. I made a deal with TG a while back when he commissioned some coats from me that he would pay me for my services, provide me with the proper materials, and would also give my name to his personal tailor so he could spread my business around, and he actually came through! Since I got back it's almost been nothing but work, work, work, and it's amazing!" Junko squealed with delight and bounced in her seat, squeezing Seiji's hand. But then she squeezed it even tighter, sitting taller and grinning.

"A-and I'm even branching out into wedding dresses!"

Seiji answered that wink with a toothy grin. "That being the case, I suppose I should work on getting stronger, eh?" It hadn't even been a challenge for her when they'd fought, and though the ghost didn't take it as a blow to his pride--him still being in school an all--he was determined to rise to that level of strength as well.

He fell quiet though, letting the two ghouls talk about the human world, letting Junko take the lead on delivering the news about their impending nuptials.

"You should always work on getting stronger." She matched Seiji's toothy grin. "When you do, hail me, ya? I am looking forward to a rematch!"

Hel nodded her head. "Lots of lights!" She exclaimed. "Lights everywhere! So many ah...themed things there, too! Humans go there to gamble, apparently...but it is also where they go to get eloped!" She grinned, having been witness to quite a few of those quick marriage ceremonies while she was there. "Japan..." She echoed thoughtfully. That sounded interesting. "I want to go there too! Ah, ya! It is very good to broaden your horizons!"

As Junko showed Hel her ring, the reaper went silent and a bit wide eyed as she stared at it. She held that odd look for a moment before she raised a hand to snap her fingers, and her dark red eyes rolled up towards the sky. "Oh, YA! I vaguely recall that now! At the Hallow's Eve dance, ya?" Yeah, that seemed right. She could kind of remember...everything was pretty much a blur now, except the warmth of Salbei and his hug when he made a sudden appearance at the dance, and she remembered that with terrible fondness.

"...Oh!" It was here Hel leaned back, and her eyes lidded as she gave Junko a smug look. "You can thank me." For getting proposed to. "I know I was a good luck charm in my dress. I am like the patron saint of marriage."

Full of herself, most definitely.

Junko waited. And waited. And waited. And then finally Junko's heart sank with her relief. Oh, thank Jack. She was..she was okay with it! Junko nodded, her worried look turning into a huge smile. A tendril of hair curled around Seiji's wrist and squeezed, delighted by the result she was seeing. "Uh huh! And then immediately after, your sister decided I would be Peder's keeper. I mean, I would have if she'd just asked first." She shrugged. Junko loved scarelings. She wanted scarelings. But being asked first would have been nice.

Wait. What..

...What.

Junko just stared.

"...You're hardly a saint," she finally replied.

"I think I'm more the cause of ringing wedding bells than you, Hel. So if anyone's the patron saint of marriage it's me."

Just saying.

She plucked a set of chopsticks from a holder in her hair and used them to pick up a piece of her meal. So much more of a saint than Hel.

Her hair twitched at that nickname. Junko huffed, lifting her chin. "It wasn't made yet, but it was already on paper. Waiting."

She twirls one of her chopsticks. "It's all about subtlety."
