He found himself eyeing the bird as he carried it over to the teapot. Just an object. It only wouldn't be if it was in the process of dying. She was always a puzzle. He was an able learner at least, looking on through a great deal of eagerness at the procedure.
As her ring was produced, he raised his brow but ventured to reassure her, shaking his head. "Nah its fine, it's like a toughness test. I like it. I don't mind. And I have claws I suppose" he tried to look a little hesitant because it was only appropriate to do so, but underneath he was entirely unafraid of the edges but did find himself drawn towards having it no matter what. "Hold on, let me make mine, it might be the same, I don't know. We can see if this teapot's broken."
He turned briskly, tail flicking eagerly and put all of his ingredients into the teapot as shown before waiting for just a moment. What came out was a perfectly circular ring, smooth and white with no stamps or seams, with a texture like polished bone. Up close it had a strange iridescent glaze which shimmered oily but without colour at all, broken only by five thin, matte lines around the outer edge broken by vertical lines in even spacing - like sheet music.
It was far heavier than it looked.
"Well, this is ok I think. You should be able to wear this no problem, if you want. I don't think it would fit me." He decided it was best to divert away from how telling its appearance was.

A shower of sparkling mist swirled around them, and there was a din of shouted, unfamiliar words and clinking glasses. The din roared to a crescendo, then stopped.
The dormouse was dabbing her eyes.
Nod gave Defile a sheepish smile. "Well. That's that, then."
He added,
"Err, better not tell Calder."

Her expression shifted to a pleased grin, "Yeah, you're right. Can't make things too easy on you, 'cause I'm a catch." Phoenix looked at the his ring, the design of it seeming odd and abstracted, like something she should recognize but couldn't quite grasp. Setting the thought aside for never, she held out her hand, "Well, I do."

"There is, um. There is something I believe you should know, Boi." Teddomination said quietly, losing most of his usual luster. His bear ears drooped, and he pulled his paw away from Boi's hand. It was supposed to be a fun, silly game... and they were silly marrying each other. But it just highlighted how lonely Teddomination was. How he didn't really fit with his family... at all.
At Amity, he had friends- even if they didn't really know him. He had met other creatures, and learned what a real community was like. He had Boi, and M00n, and (even though the other probably wouldn't admit it) Frostpaw. When he woke up...?
He would probably never see them again.
His little paws drifted through the box of objects, fishing here and there for something that seemed right. They were all so... silly. So insignificant.
"I, um. I am not... I was never accepted. To the school. So I am not actually a student!" His voice cracked at the last, finally admitting his embarrassing secret to someone else. He couldn't look at his friend as he confessed this, no. But he found himself collecting the bottle of tears, and moving on to the teapot ahead.
"So when we wake up... I do not know if I will see you again, my most special friend." He set his object into the teapot, and wiped at his (NOT CRYING) eyes with the back of his paw.
"So please... do not forget me, yes? Or, more importantly... do not forget to be happy for me when you wake up? I would not forgive myself, knowing I had any part in making you sad."

When he was quite sure that they weren't going to be promptly murdered by invisible revellers, Defile finally seemed to exhale. The ordeal, as enlightening as it had been was over.
He was just steering himself back to stability and sense when he caught the other demons last comment.
And cracked up into all the nervous laughter that he'd been saving up.

Could he count the ways things were wrong with this situation? Apparently not. The dormouse was shoving them along too quickly for him to have the time to properly count. Burn was fuming as he was pushed along, casting glares from the Red Cheshire Cat, to the pushy dormouse, to the decor of the 'house' when they got inside. Marriage.
Marriage.
To a Red Cheshire Cat?
He was insulted and more than a tad confused with his dream. He grabbed one of the freaking baskets and threw the Vanilla Cake right on in. It was simple. It was basic. He preferred it.
"This isn't some bloody shotgun weddin'," he growled out at last to his so-called-darling.

A loose white shirt can be seen under the coat, along with red pants and a heavy brown belt. An eyepatch over his right eye completes the look.
He placed the ring on her finger with reverential care, surprisingly nimble as he did so. "No kidding, you are. One of the fiestiest and toughest people I've met in a long time. But I'm learning that you are well worth all the tough challenges you represent. Pleasure to marry you." And he held out his own hand for the strange ring. "And likewise, I do."

What was he doing here?
He wasn't quiet sure but he was feeling a little more calmer. It was the next day maybe he could convince someone to play the quest with him... for leveling purposes. Right?
It had nothing to do with jealousy.
He watched the people pass by lurking as he passed in and out of visibility.

"Always cute," Ian amended, giving Shiloh a playful wink. He caught the hand that Shiloh was using to poke at his nose and brought it to his lips, kissing the back of it in the best prince-like initiation he could muster while one was currently dressed in a giant fluffy coat and they were eating rainbow cake.
He gave Shiloh a look of mock outrage.
"Excuse me, but I am better than the cake," he said indignantly, as Shiloh pushed him forward, his hands on his shoulders, his mouth near his ear - which, Ian soon determined, was extremely distracting. He tried not to show that the words coming out of this Shiloh's throat were just as - if not more - distracting as his mouth, his heart clattering in his chest.
He didn't answer the question.
Without looking behind him, Ian bent down, looped his own arms around the backs of Shiloh's knees, and hoisted him up onto his back, carrying him piggyback style towards the next area. There was a box and a sign, and Ian let Shiloh down in front of it, though he kept one arm around his waist, peering down into it curiously.
"What do we have here, hmm?" he asked, tilting his head. Ian reached down into the box and felt around for a few moments before he pulled out a thick rubber bracelet, a red papercut heart, and a tiny glass animal that almost looked like some sort of dog. Ian eyed them with vague suspicion before turning back to Shiloh.
"What are these for, do you suppose?" he asked, holding them out.

Byakko looked over at the other male with a lopsided smile. "It could be worse." He told the other when he heard his growl. "It could be real. I'm Byakko by the way." He introduced himself even though he knew his name and level were floating above him. It didn't bother him that the weird dream had paired him up with a White Gryphon, after all he didn't pay factions much mind and he had been tempted by the Gryphon class at the start.
He glanced over at the new table they were lead to and looked at the constellations. It didn't take him long to choose The Cheshire constellation as his guardian.

The compliments had Phoenix straightening her back, hair flipping slightly as she preened and carefully placed her ring on his finger. Grinning up at him, she went on tip toe to plant a friendly kiss on his cheek as the sudden cheering sounded and confetti rained down. Ribbons and birds were summoned into existence by their proximity, and Phoenix felt entirely pleased with the moment.

The green clad Gryphon couldn't help but let out a laugh at her unsure responses, usually he encountered such hesitant replies for other reasons (mostly her nerdiness). "It's clever," referring to her own. "Went the easy route with mine, a nickname." He shrugged, smiling as they were then escorted to yet another table to pick an item.
It was tempting to go with a few options but he decided on his job class, Gryphon. "So, you done this one before?" He asked, deciding to make some conversation, "what's the whole marriage thing do?"

Frostpaw DID have a reason to be here. While hiding away from a certain dormouse NPC of course. He was going to make sure that poor OuO didn't do something silly that he was going to have to freak out over. Things like that!
Alas, if only he'd known what happened the previous day. Still, if one looked they'd spot a certain cheshire wraith fading in and out of sight to one side while making no real move to interact with anyone.
Because he had other things to do.

Sunny shrugged. "I suppose. It fits me well, that's all." The next table was still overturned. How odd, but she ignored it. When she reached her arm into the box, she brushed against the smooth petals of a dried rose. She nervously glanced at Green before throwing all caution to the wind and lifting it to her nose to see if it had any fragrance left. "Nothing too special. Just some loot. Wedding bells whenever we're in battle together." Her nose crinkled at the thought.

Divinity simply watched her, appreciating her happiness like a fine painting hung in a prestigious art gallery. He smiled appreciatively at the kiss and let the cheering and confetti subside. Only when the moment of celebration had abated did he finally seem to change, something about him shifting off kilter.
He held up a hand, counting. "First comes love, then comes marriage.." and the cheery smile he'd been wearing faded completely, leaving nothing but that distant cold blue gaze.
And it was unmistakably Jan's accent that added. "We just keep running into one another missy. I should have called myself Destiny."
