Some day we'll put it together and we'll get it all done
Who: Joshua (empyreancatastrophe) & Clive (firebrandish); Joshua & Kazuya (bellheir)
Which: Closed Log(s) – Mini catchall
Where: Joshua’s home (guest starring his desk)
What:
- Clive is getting married to Jill, and Joshua has started turbo planning. Clive asks him a very important question.
- Kazuya is coming for a friendly visit (and to chat more about what happened at their sparring match a few months ago) where he uncovers something Joshua is hiding.
Warnings: FF16 spoilers maybe? Will add as necessary
Finding the best man for the job
[Joshua sits at his writing desk, a flurry of activity surrounding him as he meticulously organizes piles of parchment filled to the brim with neatly scrawled annotations—and that’s the only sign of tidiness within his vicinity. Whatever documents or lists aren’t placed into haphazard piles lay crumpled on the floor surrounding his seat. His brow furrows in concentration as he reviews his latest endeavor, his quill resting against his cheek.]
[Tap tap.]
[Tap tap.]
[Tap.]
[Then, a heavy sigh. As determined as Joshua is to help make this wedding a success, a celebration worthy of his beloved big brother and his soon to be sister-in-law, there are certain stressors involved. He enjoys planning. Excels in it. Thrives, even. For some reason, however, the stakes seem and feel higher now than with any espionage mission or war strategy he’s partaken in.]
[Still, this is an important moment. One that Clive and Jill will remember forever. He can’t afford to slack or to fall prey to trepidations. Everything will work out, because he will be there to make sure of it.]
[With a decisive nod, Joshua scribbles down a few more notes before reaching for another document.]
Snoopy isn’t just the name of a dog
[Joshua stands outside his treehouse, the crisp air marking winter’s end enveloping him as he takes hold of Alder’s reins. He’d invited Kazuya over for a hangout, hoping to catch up with his friend amid the welcome chaos of his family’s arrival, but his chocobo had other plans. The steed was entering his adolescent months, chock full of rebellious tendencies and endless energy. While Joshua was waiting for Kazuya indoors, Alder saw it fit to cause a ruckus in his stable. And so, Joshua ran outside to help quell the latest in what’s sure to be a string of rambunctious antics.]
[As Alder trots beside him, his feathers ruffled and his demeanor restless, Joshua can't help but feel a twinge of frustration. He'd been looking forward to spending time with Kazuya, and now his plans were derailed by his unruly chocobo. He reminds himself that, intelligent as they are, chocobos are still animals. He can hardly blame the bird for whatever instinct is driving him.]
Easy there, boy.
[Joshua’s tone is soft as he gently tugs on the reins.]
What’s gotten into you?
[Alder lets out a squawk in response, his beak snapping at the air as if he's eager to be free of his constraints. Joshua sighs, knowing that Alder's energy needs to be expended somehow, or else he'll continue to act out. Disappointment aside, he has a responsibility to take care of.]
[It’s at that moment that he notices a familiar figure coming close, and Joshua waves.]

no subject
You're right. The day is meant for you and Jill, and he would want you to celebrate it as you both see fit.
[He can hear Elwin's voice now: calm and collected, encouraging the Brothers Rosfield in their decisions as long as they uphold and protect their family's pride. Given that Jill is joining their family ('officially'), Clive is doing exactly that with his decision.]
[With his fingers still grasped around Clive's hand, Joshua gives it a reassuring squeeze. Not that he suspects his brother doubts his decision, but rather to impart the message that he, as always, has Joshua's support.]
Are there any other must needs that require addressing?
