A Very Nexus Reception
To all the friends of the happy grooms, PINpoint messages have already been sent weeks ago inviting them to expect quite the street party arranged in the commons of the Nexus. Guests have been invited to bring an appetite--both for food and for a social adventure. Nirnish weddings are public affairs, after all. While the ceremony has had to be somewhat sequestered for the sake of keeping the existence of Other Worlds a secret, neither Felix nor Jim would want to leave out their interdimensional friends entirely. Having a reception party arranged in the Nexus became the natural plan of action.
Overnight large sections of the Commons are transformed via diligent craftsmanship and quite a lot of magic from those who’ve volunteered. Lanterns representing the Divines are hung along every lamp post, bringing at least the idea of warmth even if the flames are too small to heat their surroundings alone. Bardic tunes carry in the air as readily as the scent of food and drink. Past banners of red and black, blue and white the people gather.
For both grooms this is nearly a continuation of the day before. They’ve had the chance to sleep off the nerves of their ceremony. Today is entirely for celebration--uninhibited celebration at that. No more minding what is said and isn’t. No more pretending to be anything other than who they are. Jim’s traded out his Nirnish finery for a suit and tie, garments he’s much more familiar with. Felix is staying with his native clothing; though he may have dressed down a little from his wedding clothes, the conjurer’s dressed in fitted breeches and his best fur-trimmed coat and boots, the soft hide dyed blue to match his tunic. By their side sits the conjurer’s spectral wolf familiar, ears pricked at the gathering.
As the guests find their ways over it will be easy to spot their friends amidst all the decor along with many other avenues with which to enjoy themselves….

Spock's emotional range must seem rather nonexistent to this human, but he is making an attempt to be friendly in his own way. He inclines his head in a slight nod.
"Not all First Contacts go smoothly. The Galaxy is a multifaceted place with as many teeth as there are extending helping hands."
no subject
Connant's not sure who Spock is, but he can guess that he isn't human. The last alien he encountered wasn't human at all - unless it chose to be.
"Teeth is right." Connant shudders. "Antarctica had its dangers, but we weren't prepared for hostile aliens. The climate was the more typical issue."
no subject
It's not often that Spock gets the chance to come out here, after all. This is more of Jim's area of personal research.
"It is unfortunate that your people had to be put through such circumstances. Have you come to the Nexus seeking asylum in the wake of this?"
no subject
Connant shrugs when Spock ask his question. Asylum, kind of, but not by his own choice.
"Not exactly. I'm dead - the creature killed me in my work shed. My commanding officer put me in a room alone with it to keep watch. And people who die and pop up here can't go back home."
no subject
Surely not. The human looks very much alive and breathing. But it wouldn't be the first time Spock has known of someone to cheat death. Still, it's so very difficult to believe because the circumstances sound so dissimilar.
"Does it affect you adversely?"
