[He had understood that on some level, but hearing it like this...]

...

I've never seen a wedding before.

[Or ever been invited to participate in one. The notion made him feel almost shy.]

[nofarplaneyet]

Oh yeah? Well, I don't know they work in your world, but do you want me to tell you about the wedding I did a few weeks ago?

[farseen]

[A nod, vigorous enough to shake off a few sparkles, was his reply. He'd love hearing about the sort of weddings people did in this country!]

[nofarplaneyet]

So you have the man and the woman walk up an aisle and they're dressed for the occasion. The man has a friend and so does the woman. These friends are a part of the wedding party. Later on they give speeches about the couple.

Then what I did was give a speech and say some things to remind them of what they're doing and then they say vows to each other and in front of everyone watching to witness them getting married.

.....It's cute.

[Shin-Ah said, as if envisioning it for himself with those words. He could almost picture how things would go, though he didn't have a full grasp of how glitzy and glamorous some weddings could be.]

It's all cute. People are cute.

[It's such an earnest and unusual response that Auron chuckles a little bit.]

I suppose in some respects it is. People also dress up and there's a lot of good food. The one I went to even had fireworks.

[farseen]

[It was such an unusual concept for him that he simply had no idea how to react.]

Weddings... are amazing.

[nofarplaneyet]

That's a great way to sum it up. So I guess we'll have to do what we can to make Zeno's wedding amazing too.
