a family dinner for family announcements of a celebratory kind

Who: Shrike Nero Jason Glory Raven Vergil
Where: Olive Garden
When: a convenient time

[ when you're here, you're family!!!

also shrike made some... well, the shape leaves something to be desired but the red velvet macarons taste right and there's a dish of chocolate-dipped cherries and strawberries also. ]

[Family things are so awkward..... At least Vergil isn't glaring at Jason, this is improvement.

But he's dressed up because family should respect him. He's always dressed up by normal standards so for it to be so by his, it's a lot. Sparda fancy. No monocle though, he's not that powerful. Just you know, cravat, everything extra embroidered and velvet, amulet out. Some wing jewellery.

He definitely isn't drinking, obviously. And he'll just kinda eat whatever's put in front of him.]

[raven's trying to be subtle but he is lingering near vergil more than usual, perhaps.

and at one point he's going to gently touch vergil's hand and tap his fingers, to get a look at the wound on the inside of his palm]

[It's been stitched up so it's probably getting along in healing, and Vergil's extremely shy about anyone noticing what's going on but he does turn his hand over for Raven.

His tactic is: if he completely avoids looking at or interacting with Raven surely no one will notice a thing. That'll work. Got real far with that last time.]

[GREAT PLAN

raven seems to be mostly on the same page, however, and he just nods when he sees that it's been stitched up]

[Thank you for also being stupid. Clearly this is the way to act casual. He only glances over long enough to see the nod and turn his hand back over again.]

I... told Glory. I hope that's acceptable. I don't intend to tell anyone else. That... is something I want to keep between you and me.

- Do you? I don't...mind if you want to tell anyone. But obviously I don't think these things are anyone's business.

Save perhaps for others you are... [Y'know. Dating for people who don't say dating.] Someone like Glory.

She is my fiancée. And I don't mind if you tell others, either. Though... perhaps we should hold off on telling Nero.

[it is an improvement.

he offers a breadstick.]

[He considers it

and takes it.]

Breaking bread together now? We wouldn't want anyone thinking we're getting along.

Well...

You can console yourself with the fact that it's oversalted, then. Breaking salty bread together sounds about right.

[oh!!! Good job Shrike!! He in fact looks very pleased by that - proud dad, even?]

Hm, the same as ever. And yourself?
