Te Riduurok Ori'skraan be Briika bol Kable (Mando'ade Wedding Celebration)

[Kad Tor]

"You mean about how they'll be all over the floor of our bedroom," Kad teased as he leaned down and pressed his forehead to hers once more. "Believe me we will tell them both in our own way when we are good and ready to. [member="Briika Tor"] would not like it very much that her brother was breaking from his very traditional upbringing."

Kad grabbed a couple of ales and handed one to [member="Ralize Darkfeather"] as they made their way to [member="Kable Detta"] and Briika. The tall Mando'ad still was walking with a slight limp, a souvenir from Bastion. The shrapnel was in a case on display as a mantle decoration above the fireplace in his master suite. The one he and Ralize now occupied together.

Their hands were joined, fingers intertwined, as they approached the two newlyweds. It was time to congratulate them officially, a bittersweet moment for Kad. While he was letting Briika go, he had gained a brother, two in fact, with @Nolan Detta, who seemed to be talking with a woman. Maybe it was the start of something for him too.

Kad cleared his throat to get the couples attention.

"So I guess it is time for us to make our official congratulations, though we did find out on Bastion. Anyway, I meant what I said in that toast. Bree'ika, I love you, and Kable, it's good to have a brother again."

 

[Kable Detta]

Kable's gaze followed the direction his wife was directing. It seemed that Nolan was indeed trying his hand at flirting.
Smiling at his wife, Kable quipped "Well, there goes the galaxy, Nolan is flirting" He winked [member="Briika Tor"]

A clearing of his throat caused him to turn around and see [member="Kad Tor"] and [member="Ralize Darkfeather"], the young couple who Kable hoped would be having their own Riduurok soon.
At Kad's words, Kable pulled the beskarsmith in for a bear hug.
"I am truly blessed to have a family such as you" He said as he looked each of the three in the eye

 

[Briika Munin]

[member="Preliat Mantis"] was there one minute at the bride and groom's table, silently dropping off a beautifully hand-made shawl to [member="Kable Detta"] like the one the mohawk-haired Rally Master wore though red checkered, then the young vod was gone, losing himself in the crowed brewery.

"Cyar'ika… You will have to personally thank Preliat for the gift. That must have great meaning especially coming from him," Briika whispered to her husband, giving his cheek a quick peck, then she smiled brightly as [member="Kad Tor"] and his little spitfire of a girlfriend walked up to them.

"Su cuy'gar, [member="Ralize Darkfeather"]. I'm so glad you could make it to the celebration. Hopefully soon we can all be an even bigger family. I've always wanted a little sister," the golden blonde said boldly with a wink, then turned to her brother. "I love you too, Kad'ika, always and forever will you be in my heart."

 

[Ralize Darkfeather]

Her cheeks were still warm as Kad gently twined his fingers with hers and led the way to the table where Briika and Kable were sat. She sipped from the mug of ale in her hand, initially gazing at the happy couple over its' rim. But she moved it aside soon enough as [member="Kable Detta"] was the first of the pair to speak.

She dipped her head and smiled softly at him, emerald eyes flicking between he and [member="Briika Tor"] for several moments. That was the kind of relationship she remembered her parents having, before her mother's untimely death. The easy, loving manner they had around one another, the happiness that seemed to always linger in the air around them.

Another sip of her ale saw Briika pipe in to echo a similar sentiment.

Ralize replied before she thought over much about her words, but didn't bother stopping them either. "Soon, Briika...I want to make a trek to Nar Shaddaa to see my family first. No use marrying Kad if he isn't going to survive my father and brothers, after all." Emerald eyes were bright as she lofted a brow and glanced up at [member="Kad Tor"], her suddenly serious and innocent expression ruined by the smile that kept tugging at the corner of her lips.

 

[Nolan Detta]

Nolan slammed back his pint in one gulp, awkward silences were not his favorite. He tried to think of something to do...brilliant... He rose from his chair, tossed a few credits to the band and told them to liven this place up.


He jumped up from his chair and started to dance to the music.

 

[Briika Munin]

[member="Nolan Detta"]'s bold move caught Briika's eye and brought a wide smile to her face. Leave it to her new vod'ika to get things rolling at the rather quiet affair for Mando'ade. The golden blonde grabbed [member="Kable Detta"]'s hand and dragged him with her to where the dirty blonde Detta brother was dancing to some lively music.

"Come on everyone… Let's party!" Bree called out to all those at the wedding celebration, then began moving her hips to the beat with her arms wrapped around her riduur's neck.

[member="Ralize Darkfeather"] [member="Kad Tor"] [member="Ordo"] [member="Rianna Ordo"] [member="Anija Ordo"] [member="Arrbi Betna"] @anyone else who wants to join in

 

[Arrbi Betna]

Betna picked up on the innuendos almost immediately and more or less rolled with it.

"She knows the basics on the whole deal, so I guess I have you two to thank for talking to her about that and making sure she understood how everything worked," he said with a smile. "She's a quick learner, though. Almost no prompting on my end and she did it all like a natural. If it wasn't for her admission of being very new to whole thing, I'd have thought she was damn near a pro. As it is, she can take my vessel out for a spin whenever she wants. She's shown she can handle it with care and attentiveness so I trust her to do almost anything she wants with it any time."

[member="Ordo"] @Rianna Organa [member="Anija Ordo"]

 

[Kad Tor]

Of course Nolan was the one to get things going. The party had been very not Mando'ade before. Too much talking and socializing. No where near enough drinking and carousing going on. Well for Kad there would be drinking, and once he got his spitfire back home, there would be carousing.

"Wha do you say Ral'ika, you wanna dance, or move this party back home?"

Kad picked Ral up and moved her closer to the dancing. It was on the way oh the door anyhow. She could just tell him if they were stopping there or going right out to her speeder.

[member="Ralize Darkfeather"]

 

[Ordo]

[member="Arrbi Betna"] [member="Rianna Ordo"] [member="Anija Ordo"]

Ordo looked from Rianna to Arrbi to Anija and back to Arrbi. He stared for a good long while and then Ordo blinked.

"She always did have a way with the smaller craft..." Ordo said with a straight fave and a nod. "And now that my grays are starting leta get something to drink and none of that green stuff proper black Ne'tra Gal."

Ordo hugged hos daughter, kissed his wife, and slapped Arrbi on the shoulder. He was a good guy after all it seemed. Guts and a sense of humor, nothing wrong with that combination.

 

[Anija Betna]

[member="Ordo"] [member="Arrbi Betna"] [member="Rianna Ordo"]

Anija smirked slightly and gripped Arrbi's hand after returning Ordo's hug. "I had good instructors..." She managed to say with a straight face. "Netra'gal sounds wonderful right about now...." She followed Ordo towards the bar, and then broke off to find the four of them an empty table.

 

[Ralize Darkfeather]

Emerald eyes watched Nolan and his...rather energetic dancing kick things off. Leave it to him to get the party going. She was almost tempted to nudge him through the Force, but decided against it. It was probably best that they talked about what had happened on Bastion first...or at least came to a mutual understanding. She had concerns about that final day's events, but the party was hardly the place to bring them up.

Setting her glass down as [member="Kad Tor"] picked her up off of her feet, she laughed and looped her arms around his neck. Kissing him lightly, she grinned and then whispered in his ear. "Why don't you keep going, Kad'ika...door's right there...they won't notice we're gone..."

 

[Rianna Organa]

[member="Ordo"] [member="Anija Ordo"] [member="Arrbi Betna"]

Rianna raised an eyebrow oh really now she thought, "yes a drink and some advice for Anija, the good thing about smaller vessels are it leaves room for upgrades which are easily bought." Rianna very serious, very matter of face, though she hid a smile. "upgrades can be purchased in different size packages, I understand depending on what you need, or want" Now she was rambling a bit. She shrugged, eh she thought she wanted to celebrate.

"A good strong drink to celebrate!" Rianna laughed and held onto Ordo's arm, as she looked over at Arrbi and Anija.

 

[Arrbi Betna]

"I don't think my vessels would need an upgrade or two. Maybe something to make them faster, but arguably that's all in the handling," Betna said with a shrug.

He followed them to the table and took a seat with a grin.

"Yes, a good strong drink to celebrate is in order," he said with a smile. It also reminded him that he needed to do more with his brewing company...

[member="Anija Ordo"] [member="Rianna Ordo"] [member="Ordo"]

 

[Kad Tor]

Kad was way ahead of [member="Ralize Darkfeather"] with the way she was kissng him. The pace quickened when she whispered though. It was almost as if the two were newly weds the way they behaved. Almost every spare moment they had they were enjoying their new found freedom of living together. Of course it was a big secret, which was why Ral was right that now was a good opportunity. They needed to take advantage of a time when no one would see them.

No matter what [member="Briika Tor"] said about being there for him, he still was feeling replaced. Until Kabe came along, Kad had been the closest male relationship she had had. He knew this was going to change at some point, but knowing wasn't enough to prepare someone for how it would feel. That's partly why Kad was growing closer to Ral, but mostly because he was crazy about her. Being with her made him understand how much Briika cared for Kable, and how she could still have room for Kad. Funny that they both would find someone, and not too long after, they both would have made their riduurok. This was going to be a good year for the Tors.

"Home it is then cyar'ika. I've been wanting to get home to you all day now, and you're about to find out first hand how much."

Kad had ridden with Briika so they had to take Ral's speeder home. That was okay though because it was faster. The door opened and the pair slipped out, Ral still being carried, without anyone noticing them. They had feelings to express to each other in a physical way and a trip to Nar Shaddaa to plan.

 

[Anija Betna]

[member="Ordo"] [member="Rianna Ordo"] [member="Arrbi Betna"]

It was all Anija could do to keep a straight face. As it was, she gave Ordo and Rianna a look, kicking Ordo under the table as they sat down. She gripped Arrbi's hand and smiled at him. There was something to be said about wedding celebrations: it helped others solidify their feelings as well. She and Arrbi had been dating for months now, and had even discussed the possibility of their own riduurok. They had decided to wait a bit. Though if how her buire were acting was any indication, they considered the two young people already matched. "Netra'gal sounds like an excellent idea..."

 

[Preliat Mantis]

Preliat watched for a moment, halfway to the point of drunkenness. He wanted to address his fellow Mandalorians, but felt like being silent again. In fact, he had been quiet for a long time now, he hadn't actually said a word to many people in days, much less held a conversation in weeks. Preliat growled at the barkeep, signalling his departure from the area. He stumbled for a moment, although he did not fall completely. The room was blurry, slurring motions of bodies dancing and conversations that seemed slowed. Preliat made his way to the door, and stepped out, heading outside to catch his breath. He began to walk, until the party sounds and lights seemed distant and far away, and he smiled a light smile, before collapsing face first into the ground, blacking out from his heavy consumption.

 

[Ordo]

[member="Rianna Ordo"] [member="Arrbi Betna"] [member="Anija Ordo"]

Ordo sat with Rianna and chuckled slightly to himself. That is until someone decided to play meshgeroya with his shin.

"Oofmmmm." he said exaggerating slightly and then pretended he was saying something, "mmm that food smells good too. Food and drink that has a -kick- in it."

Ordo looked at Anija and made a innocent face. He knew full well what he did to earn the kick but boy was he playing the I didn't do anything card better than ever. His big right hand grabbed a pitcher off black ale as it went by and he began pouring people pint sized glasses. What good was a mando wedding and feast with out a drunken vod or four. He leaned over to Rianna to whisper in her ear.

"I like the guy." he said quietly, "but I may skin him if he isn't good to her."

 

[Rianna Organa]

[member="Ordo"] [member="Anija Ordo"] [member="Arrbi Betna"]

Rianna cupped Ordo face smiling, "I'll help you" she whispered back as she kissed him softly, when close to those she loved and cared for this was a feeling of completion of fulfillment that she had only felt slightly within the order. The Order had always been family, friend, home to have found that and more with Jas'ika and the clan eased all hurts inside.

Weddings were great, a great time to celebrate, Rianna picked up the mugs as they were set down again. "riduurok, ratiin" she couldn't think of the words, "May it be made of beskar" She smiled, "to the bride and groom"

Rianna raised her mug and then took a long draw on it....

 

[Arrbi Betna]

"To the bride and groom," Betna toasted and took a lovely sip of his ale.

It was a good life he led. Good ale, good company, good friends, and a strong woman to make him mind himself when he didn't. He had money to support himself and any family he had later on and a little extra to help in the harder times if needed. He had a job, his business, and his skills at hand. Life was good.

He and Anija had spoken a few times of their own union. He was up for it, but they had decided to wait a bit to see how her parents would react to him. If this was any indication, it looked optimistic. With that in mind...

"Could I talk to you in private for a moment, Ordo?" he asked the older Mandalorian after everyone had finished toasting.

[member="Ordo"] [member="Rianna Ordo"] [member="Anija Ordo"]

 

[Ordo]

[member="Arrbi Betna"] [member="Rianna Ordo"] [member="Anija Ordo"] [member="Preliat Mantis"]

"To the Bride and Groom." Ordo echoed his wife and took a long drink.

He set the heavy mug down and placed a hand on Rianna's as he sat there content as anyone could be. He looked around and noted the many guest and then heard Arrbi's voice.

'Called it.' Ordo thought as he smiled at the younger man.

He patted Rianna's hand and stood up exaggerating greatly as he feigned stiffness and aches.

"Ahhh." he groaned as he stretched his back and gave his riduur a wink.

"Sure ad'ika lets step out back." he said as he started moving to the back door.
