Watch time, see how it flies
Who: Johnny Rayflo and Sola
When: May 13th
Where: All over, but mostly the park
Style: Action
Status: Closed
[It was commonly thought that those creatures with long life saw time differently. A year was the blink of an eye, a week a barely passing thought, and a day merely a dust mite on the surface of a very long life. While there might be those who agreed with that, Johnny had never come to see time that way.
He'd always been pretty good with time. Dates of note were never missed and some were etched into his memory from years of observance. Consequently, the fact that today's date was what it was came as a shock to him. With everything that had been going on, including his cupcake-filled recovery on the island and then moving back in under the water and repairing all the damage that came with that, he'd actually lost track of that time he usually watched so carefully.
It had been a year since Sola had stumblingly expressed his feelings for Johnny, feelings the vampire had assumed wouldn't last and were only superficial, and while they'd had their rocky moments, those feelings hadn't gone anywhere. It was a bizzaar thing to think about: him being with anyone for that long. To be fair, anything past a month was a record, but in all his years, he'd never been in a relationship for that long. It was worth celebrating.
Johnny being who he was, would have set something up sooner, something amazing and fantastic, something that would really impress Sola (which, admittedly, wasn't all that hard, but still.) Instead, he was saved by the fact it seemed the hylian in question wasn't aware of the importance of the date so, with Minea's help, he set up a somewhat elaborate trail for Sola to follow while he put together the final stage.
His boyfriend did like quests, after all.
The first would come from Minea herself who was stationed at the house and would give it to Sola at the appropriate time. It was a simple message on a small scrap of paper:
'Go to the room where everything sweet is made.

[The Hylian points to the bubble above them, a school of some sort of silvery fish flashing in the moonlight from high above. Sola drops his hand, still watching, and absently leans against Johnny as he does.]

Inside the box were a bunch of floating candles like the one that had been in the fountain and, carefully, he lit them and slid them into the lake water around them.]
no subject
Ah!
[He watches the candles float past, the effect like fairies in the water, weaving over the small ripples made by the boat.]
It's so pretty...
no subject
I believe there's still one left in your sylladex, yes? Why don't you put the last two in?
[Meanwhile, he starts pulling out the picnic he prepared which includes sandwiches, sweet treats, drinks, and a few side items. The most note-worthy thing about it though, is the fact that he's tried to mix as much food from both Sola's world and his own into the spread as he can.]
no subject
[Yaaay, he gets to help! Sola pops the remaining candle out of his sylladex (having to answer a riddle about candles with a trick answer to do it. He gets it surprisingly quickly.) and lights both candles carefully to set them out on the placid, now glowing surface of the lake. He has to lean over quite far to reach but he's careful not to tip the boat too much. He settles back, face beaming with joy.]
