Rating/Warnings/Kinks: G. Gay marriage, period clothing.
Artist's Notes: O-miai is the name for a Japanese marriage interview. Traditionally, it involves the prospective bride and groom, as well as their parents, in a very formal situation. I've obviously modified that to a scandalous private meeting. One of my favorite "romantic clichés" is for the partners in an arranged relationship to truly fall in love, and that's what I was trying to portray. It may be their first meeting, but "Eiri" and "Seijirou" have a special connection.
