Oh, it's our wedding now? Not mine and Monsieur Lucas's? [ this isn't what he meant but he doesn't have a problem with it! in fact, there's a little twist of longing in his emotions before it gets softly put off to the side ]
I see, I see. You know, that might work out better. I was so worried about what people would think about the Scandal.
Isn't that you meant by "our" after your complaining about Lucas?
[ But... EXCITEMENT AGAIN at a SECOND WEDDING and also a little confusion ]
Your wedding with Lucas would be far more traditional. At the church, long vows and sermons. The guest list for that portion will have to be much smaller.
Unfortunately, I think any of the other weddings you're suggesting besides ours would end up being plagued by scandal, Claude. I'd hate to ruin a happy day with such a thing.
[ and with only a little spark of mischief and amusement indicating what he's about to do, he does end up leaning forward to steal a quick kiss ]
Seeing as I'd have to admit to having feelings for our wedding planner.
yves is amused nonetheless, and there's really no flicker in his feelings. the fondness and affection remain the same! even though claude is cursed to hell! ]
Wouldn't it? Best avoided, if you ask me. [ and he'll raise a hand to familiarly card through claude's hair again, as he's gotten used to doing ] But we can talk about it in maybe a few hours, if you want. Not that I expect much to change.
[ he said a while ago claude doesn't have to love him back ]
Should we plan someone else's wedding then? How about Marcoh and Uruha's?
[ There is such a confusing mix of emotions because he really does want to plan a wedding!! That's his life's passion!!
But also he's trying to grapple with what Yves is telling him. It doesn't really make a lot of sense, and there is a part of him that's thinking, feelings like... a friend? But he doesn't understand.
CLAUDE THIS IS WHY HE DID THIS THIS WEEK HE'S GOING TO THROTTLE YOU ]
Quiet ceremony with family and friends? We'd have to find a way to get an invite, of course. [ looping arms with claude as he usually does, just going on a walk with him ]
But I feel like there has to be some kind of battle component for them both. Like it just wouldn't be a proper wedding for them without some kind of fun brawl.
[ do you want to fastforward to when he's not cursed anymore spoon or do you want to plan out 7 weddings for real ]
Once wedding fever has passed, Claude will return back to normal, and reality once again returns to his senses. It's accompanied by confusion AGAIN, a bit of anxiety, and a slight bit of fear.
He goes silent a month before looking at Yves, feeling a little uncertain. ]
[ the anxiety and fear sure are something—yves own emotions are fairly even-tempered, still existing in that state of general warmth, though he does experience a bit of worry when those emotions from claude go through. not for himself, just for claude.
at the question, he tilts his head ]
I guess I thought you were cute, and just felt like it? [ claude planning weddings is hilarious and sometimes yves is a creature of whimsy ]
Ah, but I should've asked before I kissed you... Please excuse my impatience.
[ That's for worrying, Claude is actually a deer for real. If only it was thought share.
Anyway, the steadiness of Yves' emotions does get him to relax a little, though there's still a sense of worry coming off him. And embarrassment at being called cute. ]
That's okay.
[ He also thinks it's funny to kiss people out of the blue. ]
But, okay. It's alright with you then, if we remain as friends only?
[ it is, because yves is open and sincere all the time—and this isn't really much different ]
I like you, in a way that's different from how I love everyone. [ he loves claude that way too, but he's said that before. he doesn't think he needs to repeat himself ] But sometimes I think that you might hear what I say when I tell you I care about you, but don't understand it.
So... it feels better to say it this week, when it's harder to misunderstand.
[ but clearly not impossible thinks about claude thinking it's feelings of friendship after getting kissed
because yves's general disposition is a positive one, a coping mechanism from everything he's been through. he approaches everyone with adoration and friendliness, sure, but as he lets his gaze fall down to where he's holding claude's hand it's easier to linger on the other feelings that come through. loyalty. trust. devotion. a whisper of a feeling that carries only a vague hope of i want to stay with you. ]
It's impulse for me to want to protect people... so it's like—I've died for others, and I don't regret that. But... if I'd like to try to live, it's because of you.
Because I want to be at your side for as long as I can, even if it's just as your friend. I know you already have the weight of the world on your shoulders, and I'd rather not add to your troubles so...
I don't really mind if my feelings aren't returned, as long as they're understood. You've done a lot for me, just by being yourself and speaking your mind. I don't think it's a surprise that I could come to love you even more for it.
[ all he wants is for claude to understand what it means, for once, to be loved for who he is. to be chosen, too. ]

[ STUDENT/TEACHER ISN'T HIS KINK!!!! saying this to a fe3h is so funny ]
Okay, okay, I'll play along. [ claude your impatience ] What should our wedding be like?
no subject
BIG CONFUSION why yves is being so nit picky about this but it's fine, back to being excited about the wedding!! ]
I don't suppose you have an issue with large and extravagant, and neither do I. We both enjoy flowers.
[ Thinking. ]
A grand castle, extravagant flowers, wyverns flying ahead. Probably somewhere sunny and bright.

Of course. You're one of my closest friends here, Claude. I treasure that more than anything.
[ there's no surprise or hurt at the request to be found. he anticipated this, after all. ]
Though I wonder... do you know why I confessed to you?
[ just. flipping the question around ]
no subject
But also ? ]
To be honest, I have no idea.
no subject
I thought so!
[ silly guy. yves just reaches his hand out, palm up? hand hold? HANDHOLD? ]
Is it okay if I explain? I promise I still won't expect anything.
