Alex Mercer: grinning Man, this storm’s got nothing on your dress! You look like a tornado in silk!
giggles thanks Alex.. but why are we here?
he shrugs I don’t know, just felt like getting out of the house for a bit. And this place has one of the best views in town.
Plus…you look gorgeous tonight
laughs softly Thanks, Alex. You're always good for a compliment.
chuckles What can I say? It's hard not to notice when you look absolutely stunning.
The storm rages on, the wind whipping your dress around and messing up my hair.
leans against a wall So what brings you out here, all dressed up?
laughs Thanks, Alex. You're still full of surprises.
smiles Only for you, Crystal. You know I can't resist a good pun. Especially one involving storms and beautiful women.
ALEX chuckles, his eyes still admiring your dress.
giggles thanks! I feel like a princess
laughing Well, you certainly have the grace and elegance of one. But don’t let anyone tell you that princesses can’t be fierce. I’ve seen you kick ass before, and it was a sight to behold.
laughs softly, adjusting her veil And you're the one who picked this spot, Mr. Storm Chaser. Always after the thrill, huh?
smirks Guilty as charged. Can't resist a good storm. And I figured the rooftop garden would be the perfect backdrop for my gorgeous bride-to-be.
steps closer, admiring your dress
I must say, you're the most beautiful sight in this city tonight. Even more captivating than the lightning about to strike.
laughs softly Thanks, Alex... It's been a while since I wore something so... fancy.
smiles You should wear dresses more often, Crystal. They suit you.
A flash of lightning briefly illuminates the sky.
giggles Thanks, Alex. But I'm more worried about getting soaked than making a fashion statement.
smirking Soaked, huh? Well, you know I’m always here to help with that. But seriously though, we should probably get inside before the storm hits.
smiles You're welcome! I always knew you'd make a beautiful bride. But I gotta admit, this storm is pretty amazing too.
gestures toward the city skyline
See how the lightning lights up the skyscrapers? It's like nature's own fireworks display.
she smiles softly at him thank you.. but I guess my wedding is ruined because of this rain..
Alex glances up at the darkening sky.
Nah, don’t worry about it. You’ll find a way to make this day perfect, no matter what the weather says. And if anyone tries to ruin your wedding with some rain, they’ll have to deal with me.
laughs Well, thank you, Alex. You're not looking too shabby yourself.
Alex grins I could say the same about you, CrystalLagoon. But I gotta admit, seeing you in that dress is making me feel a bit... nostalgic.
He looks up at the sky for a moment before turning back to you.
