Content: Date + Contest = Disaster
Setting: Elysian Fields
Time: Week 28, night
Warnings: none!

His arm entwined with Gwen's, Vyers couldn't help but wonder just what he had gotten himself into. He hadn't been expecting so many offers to help over the journals. Really, all he had wanted was a suggestion so he would be able to take her out to dinner. Although now that he thought about it, he really should have known, shouldn't he? He himself had noticed a few similar entries on the network from time to time, hadn't he?

Vyers supposed he should be somewhat grateful for Urd and Genie's offers to help, but instead he felt quite nervous about the whole thing. There was some sense of foreboding deep down that he couldn't shake about this whole thing, as though something--or many things--were about to go horribly wrong. He tried to keep his worries to himself, however, and keep Gwen from noticing.

He needed to be more optimistic, that was all. Everything would go just fine.

He didn't really believe himself.

Vyers made an effort to continue staring straight ahead as Urd caught up to them, a part of him hoping that maybe, just maybe, if he paid no attention to the goddess she might go away. It was a hope that was pretty hopeless, Vyers knew, but stopping now wasn't going to do him much better. But as she mentioned the wine, Vyers slowed down a little, and he realized just how good a course of action that was when the stream of wine passed right in front of them. He spared a brief glance at the goddess to make sure she was distracted (and absently noticed how wonderful she looked tonight--how had he missed that?) before speeding up again.

It wasn't long before he found himself stopping again, and at first it was all Vyers could do to stop himself from staring up at the giant piece of food blocking their path. Genie was only noticed after he began talking, and even then Vyers was only half-listening, his thoughts instead turned to forming some sort of escape plan.

The demon's eyes fell on Genie's suit and one could almost see the lightbulb appear over his head. "Ah, but shouldn't you change first? It would be unsightly to serve in such a state... I do not think I could bear to eat! And with the wine gone... Hm. Which table should we return to, I wonder?"
