Memory Piece: A Wedding Ceremony Someday
The flash of a camera illuminates the princes…-.
At a request from Superbia, a Prince of Votalia, Las, Ira, and Vedy are being photographed as bridal models.
Las: "Vedy, you closed your eyes when the camera flashed again didn't you?"
Vedy: "Sh-shut up! I can't help it, it's bright! And I know they told us not to move during the shoot but…I can't sit still."
As if to loosen up, Vedy pulled at the necktie he wore.
Las : "True. If I'm being stared at, I'd rather be with some women~"
Vedy: "Wh- what the heck does that mean…!?"
Ira: "Las, if you keep teasing Vedy like that… we've got a job to do, so behave."
Las: "Fine~ But… having a photo shoot with just men is so dull. Ah, didn't they say we had to do an interview after this?"
Las reclined languidly on the sofa as he shot Ira a look.
Ira: "That's right. We'll be taking interview questions from Superbia on different things. Like, what kind of wedding dress do you want the girl you like to wear? Stuff like that."
Vedy: "She'd be super cute in something all white, don't you think? It's a once-in-a-lifetime thing, so it should it something you'll always remember."
Ira: "Vedy, you're such a romantic."
Las: "I'd like something that's easy to take off. Now, is it romantic to take off something pure white?"
Ira: "If it's worn somewhere public, I think it'd be better to be more conservative and not revealing."
Las: "Oh? Then that means you'd want her to wear something only you get to see?"
Ira: "…be careful with your words."
Las: "Oh dear, you became the Second Ira without me even realizing."
Ira: "! That's…"
Ira's eyes went wide as if in surprise, then he sunk into silence.
Vedy: "If someone else was staring at the girl I like, I wouldn't be able to control myself."
Las: "But in the end, a wedding ceremony is like a party with a binding declaration where you remind everyone that she's yours and you won't let anyone else touch her right? Though I think the design should be to your liking."
Vedy: "A party with a binding declaration…"
Ira: "Wouldn't it just be better to cut off people who would touch someone else's bride? That way they can't do it again."
Las: "Ira, are you aware of how dangerous a thing you just said?"
Las let out a sigh, then lifted up the veil laid across the sofa.
Las: "Anyway, you two have thought about this pretty seriously."
Vedy & Ira: "!"
Las: "Well I won't ask for your reasons. I don't want to know. But I do wonder if the day will come when we have weddings."
Vedy: "I don't know whether to be excited or scared…"
Ira: "Yeah."
They each mulled over their desires for when they would someday greet that sight.
??: "Hey! I heard you were all just chatting and ignoring the photo shoot!"
As they heard the approaching sound of heels, the three hurriedly stood up.
Afterwards, the photo shoot continued as planned.
