Devin nodded, noting as well as everyone prepared for that nights festivities and entertainment. "Looks like it." He agreed. When she asked about a dance, he actually blushed as he rubbed the back of his head. How could he say no, however? Especially when she was acting all adorable and nuzzling his cheek with her own. She knew how much he loved it when she did that. "You promise not to laugh? Or complain when I step on your feet?" He asked.

Sare listened curiously before smiling. "It sounds amazing." She admitted as she giggled. She was going to have so many dresses! One for the Mating Ceremony, two here as far as she knew for the Brann Ceremony. It was so much yet so exciting! When Lily asked about Kai's dress, she nodded. "I saw a picture of it! I really want to see it in person though." She told her. "Have you seen it?" She asked.

Nina finally looked excited as she sat up and planted a playful kiss on his cheek. She rolled her eyes, though, at his words. "I promise...." she told him, stealing a kiss to seal the deal. Luckily she'd never cared that he was bad...as long as he was willing to try for her it meant so much. He was improving....a little. But she'd never force him to go dancing or anything.


Lily nodded her head happily, "I saw it yesterday!! Well...one of them. They can't do the second one till after Fiona is born." She explained with a small sigh before grinning again. "Maybe we can go visit tomorrow!! I know Linnea wants you to try your dress on since she had to go on memory from Solstice. It really it so gorgeous....both yours and Kai's!!"

Devin knew that his fate was sealed as he caught the excited look on his girl's face. Only for her, was he willing to make an idiot of himself out on the dance floor and have everybody laugh at him. He held her close as she kissed him, not wanting the kiss to end so soon. He finally let her pull back after a little while as he smiled at her. "You owe me. Some of your amazing baking I think." He told her with a grin.


Sare nodded with a grin, knowing that the other was much formfitting. She suddenly wondered what the girl would do at the mating ceremony. The dresses were extroidinary revealing. It didn't bother her, but she was raised differently. Modesty wasn't much around growing up. Not when you were first learning to shift and often forgot your clothes. "Well maybe we should head to Linnea's! I want to see what she has already for my dress and plan more!" She grinned.

Nina giggled with a light blush as he pulled back, knowing her mother was mentally picking on them for being "too cute". She pushed her away with a light roll of her eyes before looking to Devin. "Baking for a dance? I think I can make that work..." She teased him lightly, giving him a bright grin. She loved him so much...

Lily smiled, "What will the dresses in the wedding in your world look like?" She asked curiously, tilting her head to the side as her curls bounced around her face. She couldn't wait! She'd only been to one wedding...it was like a huge party and she got to dress all pretty! She couldn't wait for Kai and Kylers then Sare and Iggy's!

"Not just any baking!" Devin grinned wickedly. "Didn't think I would let you off that easily did you?" He asked. "When we get back to Earth, you have to bake me some delicious cookies... in just an apron." He nodded, keeping his mouth close to her ear so nobody would overhear them. "Nothing else. It's the only way I'll dance, I swear it." His grin staying glued to his face.


Sare paused at Lily's question as she tried to think on how to explain it. Would Iggy even allow them at the ceremony since they were children? Would he find it corrupting or something? Other cultures confused her terribly so sometimes! She finally decided on telling Lily. If she got into trouble for this, she would just look cute and innocent. That would get her out of trouble. "Most cases they're white, that's the traditional colour. You can wear other colours though. My sister Celene wore a dark, navy blue to her wedding. They're long and brush across the forest floor, I don't think I've ever seen a short dress at the matting ceremony." She admitted as she thought back. "And they're entirely see through. Most are made of lace, but some have been known to use a sheer gauze or something else." She explained with a smile. "They're usually formfitting, I've never seen a princess style gown either. There's never any jewels on the dress, the most decorative the dresses get are the intricate designs in the lace ones. Most wolves keep it very simple. It's supposed to be symbolic."

Nina shoved him lightly in the shoulder, "Devin Sterling!" She quietly scolded him playfully before thinking it over. "Make it four dances and you've got a deal." She bribed him, making sure to keep her voice soft and her mind blank as she spoke to him, nipping his ear playfully before pulling back a little as she waited for an answer.

Lily nodded, " It sounds really pretty but....what does "see through" mean?" She asked curiously, swinging her legs idly. "And no jewels or anything?" She added with a small frown. Weddings were always a huge deal here......why would someone want such a plain dress??

Devin just kept that wolfish grin on his face, laughing as she shoved him. As she negotiated, he blinked. "Four dances?!" He almost yelped, but managed to keep his voice down. "How about two?" He asked. "I will be making an idiot of myself and your family will be sure to laugh at me." He pointed out.


Sare blinked, not knowing that see through was an unknown concept. "It's umm... you can see through it. Like..." she looked around for an example. "Well have you ever seen someone wear a material that's so light that when in certain lighting you can see through it to their skin? That's what it means." She explained. She nodded at the jewels. "The point of the ceremony is not to show how wealthy or fashionable you are. You come to them in just a dress. They are there to accept you, not anything else. They mate with you because they love you, not your wealth. That they're accepting you as you are, faults and all." She tried to find a way to explain the deepness of the ceremony. She knew it wasn't your typical ceremony. It was so plain and simple, but there was so much magick that night. At least to her there was.

Nina laughed as he yelped, rolling her eyes at him playfully. "They're not going to make fun of you.....meet me in the middle. Three." She suggested, giving his hand a squeeze with an adorable grin. She knew her family wouldn't laugh at him....he was honestly trying and she loved that he was willing to try for her.

Lily looked confused as Sare explained, but nodded slowly. "It sounds really cool and special but....the jewels and stuff aren't for that. Not for showing off anyway. I don't really know how to explain it but its not for that." She told him, giving a small shrug. The see-through aspect hadn't seemed to quite set in though. She was focused more on the dresses and trying to figure out in English how to explain it.

Devin pursed his lips as he considered her offer. When she gave his hand a squeeze, he knew it was a losing battle for himself, and that she was going to win. Why did he even predict a different outcome? "Fine." He sighed, finally giving in. He just had to think of what he won when they got back to Earth. But three long... torturous dances tonight where he made a fool of himself. It was worth it though... yea, definitely worth it.


"Ah well you see on Earth, humans use jewels and decorations as statuses for their wealth during weddings." Sare explained with a smile. She ran her fingers through the little girls hair as she enjoyed her time with her new niece. It didn't matter that she was blood, she was family now. "You'll just have to see the ceremony when we get back. Somebody I know is getting mated soon, and if your Uncle will let you, you can come with me and see what I'm talking about?" She asked with a smile.

Nina gave him a grin, stealing a deep but quick kiss from his lips. She really loved that he was willing to dance with her. She pulled back with a giggle and a smile, "I love you soooo much and I promise it won't be as bad as you believe it will be...." she added, a happy spark in her eyes. Everything that day was just going right and she obviously needed it.

Lily nodded her head with a shy smile, "I'd really like to....we are coming back for Sheng and Cristol's wedding in two months, yes? I know an Eau ceremony isn't the same as a Brann ceremony but it'll be cool....and a lot of fun!!" She assured Sare with a small grin, waiting as the others finished up. She didn't want to interrupt their dinner....
