[he's going to try to keep this short but he's also wei wuxian, so...]

Lan Zhan and I are finally getting married this month! If you can see this, consider it your invitation to celebrate with us and see how beautiful he looks in red.

[strangers too, and there should probably be some caveat here about not causing any trouble. but when one of the grooms is the yiling patriarch, things like that don't automatically spring to mind.]

Oh, and if you're a priest or a shaman or a holy woman, you're doubly invited, otherwise I'm really going to have to find someone to do the ceremony.

[now for the real reason that he's here:]

It took us a little longer than we thought it would to get to this point. I was impatient, but now I’m grateful, because so many members of my family have arrived to see it. My brother Jiang Cheng is here now - Sect Leader Jiang Cheng. [yeah, just gonna slip that in there.] He helped raise his nephew from infancy so I hope he can finally take a break and have a little fun.

[does thinking about a man raising a small child make him more attractive? it worked in lan wangji's favor, he's assuming it will work for his brother too.]

Before he came, I relied solely on Chifeng-zun - eh, Nie Mingjue to most of you. He agreed to stand for me when I didn't have anyone else to count on. Spending time with him, I realized that he’s just as fair and just as ever, not to mention generous. How do you repay someone who helped make the happiest day of your life possible?

[does he mention his muscles too, would that be weird? perhaps the better question, would it make lan zhan jealous?

he clicks his tongue.]


It's hard to believe that neither of these upstanding men is married yet. Or even have a date to the wedding... [let that sink in. he’s hoping it does. wei wuxian sighs and shakes his head at the tragedy of it.] I keep telling myself that surely there's someone who would like to attend and are in need of escorts themselves.

Did I mention that there'll be food and alcohol? Plenty of both.

Oh, one last thing. I've seen a lot of questions about dating lately. You can always send them my way. As a married man, I'm happy to share my knowledge with the junio--err, others.

[and with that, the puca is (finally) out.]

Lan Zhan, how was that? Do you think-

Hiccup. You honor us.

Ah, sort of like that, I guess! [At least from what he knows of Sects from Lan Xichen.] I don't really know what weddings entail where you guys come from, but I'd be glad to help however you need me to! Getting married is- it's big, you guys must be excited.

[He loves love, okay.]
thisisamazing: (playful)

[personal profile] thisisamazing 2020-07-21 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Hiccup's smile widens a little.] Just let me know when you want to go over things and I'll make time.

Ah, that sounds... I hope I feel like that before my wedding eventually. I think I've only been nervous. [He laughs, scrubbing a hand over his face.] But when you know, you know, right? You two seem good together.

No, I mean you guys are good together. I've seen your faces when you talk about each other. That kind of love is really amazing. [Hiccup smiles a little wider.] It doesn't happen every day.

Ah, no, no, she's uh. Astrid, my fiance, is back home. Otherwise I'd love that! [And he'll just not mention his boyfriend, also gone home, because he doesn't want to drag the mood down. This is not about him.]

Have you guys settled on a date? Is there a dress code?
thisisamazing: (glowing)

[personal profile] thisisamazing 2020-07-27 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[He'd feel bad if he didn't get it. Hiccup is no stranger to loving someone so much you occasionally have to cry with it.] Yeah, I've been pretty lucky too. [He admits fondly.] But some other time! This is about you guys!

[He laughs a little.] Got it. I'll just make sure to look nice. I'll do my best to officiate for you guys. You deserve a perfect wedding.
