week two | match ceremony

[marriagebroker]

Tonight, we're back in the courtyard. It looks similar to last week with the slight exception, there is now a plush couch near the stage, and a single lantern already lit above the stage. There's still food, drinks, all sorts of things available for the contestants to snack on and enjoy.

On the stage is Wei Wuxian, looking presentable in his hanfu for today. He's busy twirling his flute in hand as he waits for the contestants to show up and find their places, and when they do he'll extend both arms out, welcoming the cast.

"Second match ceremony! You're exempt from a black out tonight because you've already found one of the matches."

He'll gesture to that couch from earlier, which seems to be The Special Seat for Ringo and Furina to sit at if they'd like.

"Now, we know how this goes so let's not delay anymore! Team Wangji, it's your turn to announce your matches!"

Not that it makes it easier on some but, well. The heart knows better than the mind ever could.

[ What a sappy thing for MISS LOGIC to say, yeah yeah. ]

In the end, learning the pairs doesn't change how people feel. It's an algorithm, and maybe that just means our hearts have learned that there are a lot of people who are good for us than just one. We make the final call and win the game logically, regardless.

Even if Aventurine and I are a match, he and Nico have my full support!

[ Good girl. Pray others aren't so fragile. ]

Naturally. You would never stand in the way of a good story, after all, and what is a better one than of love found amidst adversity of a kind?
