I'd do anything for love... but doing that may not have been the best idea [completed]

Character(s): Vyers, Gwen, Genie, Urd
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.

Genie showed no signs of protest when Urd reached to adjust his tie, though he could not help but feel embarrassed while she did so. He was a grown genie; he should not have needed her to adjust it properly for him. Besides, had he not just fixed it himself? Granted, he had ‘fixed’ it blindly but… Bah, he could never tie these darn things right. He was beginning to wonder if he ever would. He watched the goddess fix his tie for a moment, then look back up at her while she continued to speak. Little sign of his embarrassment could be seen through his scowl. However, he was sure to grumpily thank her for her efforts.

“And that’s exactly why he needs me, to make sure things go right.” He replied, refusing to abandon Vyers. “I can’t just sit back and watch when he needs me! If he thought I wasn’t qualified for the job he would have never accepted my offer.”
