Se'rox: Hanging Around

Se'rox was happy to get away from people from time to time, but she kept finding that anytime she went for long walks like that, it was incredibly hard to find Zuchax III quickly enough thereafter. So she was thankful that he was finally easy to find- hanging out in the kitchen. So despite the face that there were shards of glass all over the kitchen floor, invisible to everyone else, she assumed, since they were tiny, Se'rox walked over and stood behind Zuchax III, quietly putting an arm around him.

Rose: You has interwebs, right?

Rose was taken aback by the news that Kaku had died. It was bad enough that he had changed his name legally due to some unforseeable confusions, but he died without saying anything? Rose drank some tea (tea! Where is coffee when I need some!!!) and sat down. She noticed how much her guards followed, but said nothing.

"All right, no coffee, but-" Rose started to ask. But, as usual, there was just too much going on in Kaku's house for a guest to get a complete sentence out in the midst of... whatever was going on. Rose really hadn't had a chance to think past her headache to catch that Kaku said he had died. Like, actually died. She didn't want to try to piece that one back together- it just made her remember her next quest kept getting put off anyways.

Turning to Raina and Zuchax III, Rose sighed. "That's okay, Raina. I can help a little? But then I should be off again, before my kingdom freaks out again. And congratulations, Zuchax III... Se'rox." Rose added, as the other Nobody came into the room. As usual, Rose felt odd being around her. Oh well.

Looking at Zuchax III, she drank a bit more tea before beginning.

"You have some facts straight. There is a ceremony where you two commit to each other. For that, the male wears a tuxedo, the female a gown- usually white- and they make promises. The officiator of the ceremony pronounces you wed, and you head off to the reception, along with all your guests. There, there should be food, music to dance to, and yes, a huge cake to share with everyone and still have the smallest tier to save for a year from then- but don't ask me why because even in a freezer that can't keep that well. Ew. Anyhow, after the party and dinner, the married couple spends a honeymoon together, which is a vacation where they, um... have some alone time. When they return, they open all their gifts and send thank yous, and get on with their lives."

Rose rubbed her face with her hands. "Yup, I think that's about it. All the important stuff, at least. If you want more detail, or why certain things are done that way, check out the internet. I'm sure Kaku's computer has more information for you. There's a ton out there."

Rose's headache was worsening. "Why does my head hurt so bad?" she asked no one. Kyrre must have slipped in while she was explaining things, because he answered from just behind her ear.

"Probably because you almost killed yourself a few days ago and need more mana?"

"Mana? Since when do I need mana to function? Especially to perform Fairy Healings?" Rose retorted, upset more that he snuck up on her than for having a "smart" answer to her question.

"Since you fully realized your kitsune heritage? And it's only like that when you have exerted all of the magic in your body." Kyrre said. And he should know- having spent enough time with that troublesome cousin of Sahm's; Trella, the now Royal Shaman, and forever know-it-all.

Rose didn't like the sound of that. No one said there would be limitations due to realizing her powers. It made her really rethink that sudden wish to be on the last of her heritage quests. She wasn't even sure how to go visit angels... while alive.
