Arranged Marriage




Marriage for love is a such a modern concept. In the past, marriage was
recognised as a social contract. Unions were entered into for many
reasons: to obtain property, to unite families, to carry on a bloodline,
et cetera. Whatever the reason, congratulations, you're getting married!


How to Play:
Post with your character | fandom | and any preferences.
Be sure to mention any scenarios you are interested or not interested in playing.
Tag Others.
Be awesome to each other.
Have fun!


POSSIBLE REASONS:
STATION: You come from a royal, noble, or otherwise distinguished family who has chosen a suitable spouse for you.
FEUD: You are being married to put an end to the bitter enmity between your two families.
ECONOMICS: Your economic state and/or your station will improve through the union, though one of you may be marrying down.
EMPIRE: You and your spouse are merging your businesses and/or property to create something more influential or profitable.
TRIBUTE: You have been offered as a gift or appeasement, alternately you're the spoils of war.
BLOODLINE: Carrying on your distinguished family name has fallen to you and the equally well-bred spouse of your family's selection.
DISAPPROVAL: Your marriage has been arranged to keep you away from the person with whom you truly wish to be.



POSSIBLE SCENARIOS
FIRST MEETING: This is the very first time you're meeting your future spouse.
COURTSHIP: To get to know each other and encourage affection, your family has approved of you going on dates.
ENGAGEMENT PARTY: Be it a huge, formal affair or a small, intimate get together, you're celebrating (or pretending).
WEDDING DAY: The big day!
RECEPTION: The big party!
WEDDING NIGHT: Every meme needs a smut prompt, right?
HONEYMOON: Where will you go with your new spouse and what will you do there?

FEUD / WEDDING NIGHT

[khz]

[ The wedding had been a whirlwind.

Feuding overlords coming together to celebrate a marriage that would bring the peace. The Vees and Alastor representing two large factions that were this close to tearing Pentagram City into pieces. Tonight fixed all of that. Formal clothes and I dos and a kiss, but Alastor didn't even dance with his new groom but once. For show.

Now, they were in the car, headed back to the Vee tower.

It was quiet. Calm. Alastor finally had a chance to take Vox in. He only really knew the other by name and reputation. Obsessed with technology and the future. Use of money to gain his power over the masses. He had to respect the manipulation if nothing else.

There was a nagging nervousness in the pit of his stomach. Now he'd be expected to perform. All of it masked with a smile. ]

A fine evening, don't you think? Rosie really knows how to serve a meal.
