I. THE CEREMONY


                     Very thankfully, none of this weekend's craziness has extended to the weather. There might be a few light sun-showers later in the day, but for the morning, the sky is calm and mostly clear, only dappled with a few clouds, the lingering cool from yesterday's rain tempering the tropical air. ... Hopefully the teleportation shenanigans will behave, or Allura will have WORDS with Arceus. (They've already had to deal with emergency fridge repairs this weekend...)

The stretch of beach just outside the house has been decked out to the nines, the seats for trainers, cushions for Pokemon, and the arch facing the sun-kissed ocean not just in Keith and Allura's usual colors of pink, blue, red, and purple, but deep green Monstera leaves and bright flame-colored bird-of-paradise flowers; all the Voltron colors, even if a few members are missing in this world. Guests are urged to sign the guestbook next to the gifts table before taking their seats; thankfully, the programs have been printed on sturdy paper and given little wooden handles so they can double as fans.

Soon enough, Keith arrives with his party, including Captain Shiro taking his place as today's officiant. And after a brief interlude, a long clear trumpet note rings out, and the bridal procession makes its way down the sandy aisle.




II. THE RECEPTION


                     Rings and vows exchanged, bride kissed, now it's time to party! Everyone is ushered back to the house for a feast prepared by Hunk and Jane, food stations scattered in and around the property.

Chips and pink-tinged flatbread with queso dip, mango ceviche, and a variety of salsas and fruit chutneys; deviled eggs; skewers with coconut shrimp and pineapple, Southwestern chicken, or miso-glazed vegetables; and for the entrees: berry-glazed pork, beef with a red wine sauce, seafood, ears of corn, and sweet potatoes, all slow-roasted in an umu dug into the sand by the house. For drinks- the only station Shiro was allowed to touch- there's wine, champagne, sangria, beer, sake, as well as a few flavors of lemonade and fruit punch for the teetotalers. The dessert table is just as bountiful: miniature galettes in sweet and savory flavors, sopapillas with honey and chocolates for drizzling, and cupcakes filled with a bright green custard. (It's matcha, mint, and basil, don't worry). The centerpiece, of course, is a beautiful, rustic cake, topped with a Litten in a top hat and an Alolan Vulpix with a veil. The cake itself is a marble of chocolate and strawberry, filled with a rick dark chocolate ganache and strawberry compote.

In between bites, there's plenty of music and dancing to be had thanks to a collab band of Kazuki Hihara, Chicken Choice Judy, Misaki Yamazaki, and Super Sonico. Starting off from the bride and groom's first dance, the music for the evening is an excellent balance of classical, classic rock, and modern hits from across the regions and the multiverse, playing long into the evening.

Of course, if dancing isn't your thing, two other stations have been set up: two rings drawn into the sand, and one featuring a corner with a makeshift rack of protective padding and foam weapons. Yes, there's going to be sparring and Pokemon battles at this wedding. Suit up, battle to knock outs or duel to three points, and try not to get hurt, nobody needs a paramedic visit at the wedding.

So eat, drink, dance, duel until Allura tosses the bouquet and the couple head out for their honeymoon. And don't forget to grab a wedding favor before you head home, custom-made by the bride herself.

"Maybe." Keith chuckled though. He reached over and took her hand, gently pulling her towards him before wrapping his arms around her waist. He looked up at her. "It's been amazing, though." Honestly, he didn't care that he was tired. He was tired in a good way. It was that satisfying sensation of having had the best time of his life and being completely content with how things were going. Yeah, he was tired, and a little sore from being on his feet all night so far, but was completely worth it.

"Are you?" He smirked just a bit. "My wife."

It's her wedding, and she'll hug if she wants to...

"Mmmm... did you have specific plans in mind that I should be conserving for?" His tone was low and pretty suggestive. He certainly had plans, though that was if they actually managed to stay awake instead of just going back and crashing hard. Honestly, either option was fine by him. He was just happy that they were married, that the shenanigans of the weekend held off, and that whatever they did tonight, it would be them together as husband and wife.

He gladly put his arms around her waist, holding her gently on his lap and definitely not caring what anyone thought at this point. Yeah, he'd had a drink or two, but that wasn't the only reason. He was happy, and this was a celebration of their love. So, if people had to suffer through seeing him happy and enjoying time with his new wife, so be it.

The change in her demeanor got his attention, his playful smirk settling a bit as she touched him. But he smiled at her words, albeit a little sadly.

"It's hard to believe, right?" His arms tightened around her in a hug, and he leaned against her, nuzzling his face against her shoulder. Her statement hit him hard for a moment, but he wasn't going to let that get to him. Not now. Not tonight. Tonight, they were celebrating, and that was all that mattered.

Keith loosened his grip around her waist only to use that free hand to seek out her free hand to hold.

"I'm glad," he said. "I'm glad we were able to bring that to you." He closed his eyes, taking in a deep breath, her floral perfume catching him in just the right way as her other hand relaxed him with the gentle strokes in his hair. He smiled.

"You deserve to be happy, Allura," he said. "I hope I can make that happen."

Oh, and listen to that. Someone caught sight of them sitting like that and began tapping a fork on their glass, which, of course, got a good number of others doing it, too.

Keith actually blushed a bit, smiling shyly before putting his hand on the side of her face as well, and leaning in for a kiss.

Keith smiled into the kiss, and then chuckled shyly as there were a few cheers from the guests, wrinkling his nose self-consciously from the attention. But he kissed her a second time once he got past his initial reaction to the cheers.

"I love you," he said softly, just for her.

He smiled softly, lightly brushing his thumb along the pink marking under her eye. After a beat...

"Well... I certainly hope so." His tone lightened a bit, getting back to a little teasing. "We're husband and wife now." But he couldn't keep a straight face at that, and his smile got a little bigger as he chuckled a little.
