I don't know how to think about a marriage ceremony. I was never one of those girls that planned it out.

Whenever I try to think about getting married, it always turns into a thinly disguised adventure story. "Okay, so, maybe we get married in a submarine, and then a giant squid shows up, and we have to save the city of Atlantis from

What do you need a dress for? Just go bother the JP and then surprise friends with the news at a BBQ party afterward. :p

This is all still really in the theoretical sphere. It won't happen for years, but... there are talks. Gosh, I feel like a government agency. "There are talks." This is how super romantic I am. Like I'd say, "There are negotiations."

[random_xtras]

LOL But seriously. You don't need all that pomp and glitter. It's just a contract to stick by somebody, not a big show of what you're worth.

I don't want anything pretty princessy, but... I mean, I can't even imagine it simply. It always devolves back into a fight-the-monsters scenario. Or wouldn't-it-be-cool-to-get-married-on-a-planet-with-giant-iridescent-beetles-everywhere.

And I don't want it to be a thing where I died, so now I want to carpe the heck out of diem, because that's so darn cliched. But I've always had that clock ticking at the back of my head, and now it's louder than ever. Like, how much longer do I have left? When will my luck run out?

[notacargojet]

Yeah, I never imagined myself getting married, either, when I was your age.

[victormakesart]

Girls are supposed to plan it out and have little wedding fantasies, if you're to believe situational comedies.

[notacargojet]

Yeah, maybe. I knew a lot of girls in law school, though, who would have laughed outright if you'd mentioned the idea.

[victormakesart]

I can relate to that. I just wish I could think about it properly before it turned into a gimmick to lead to an adventure.

Why would you have to save Atlantis? Maybe the giant squid just wanted directions. They're not all bad, you know.

I still can't believe my baby-daddy might actually be getting married! Lordy!

When you do get married, I think the tux you wore to prom would still work well. You did make a mighty-fine date if I remember correctly.

Multiple arms mean even more high-fives!

I know, right? It's bizarre. The waiting is still driving me crazy. I have no idea how anyone can wait for anything.

Thank you, my lovely lady. I just want to give him the perfect wedding, too, you know? I want to make it the sort of wedding boys dream about. With fewer explosions, and more clothes.

[violentviolin]

Nothing more awesome than eight high fives, and two tentacle-fives!

Pick up knitting to bide your time? Or needlepoint geese? Oooh!! Or Krav Maga? I'd totally take Krav Maga with you.

You're such a doll, Victor. You do realize most boys want their brides in dresses, though. Not as awesome. And if I weresane a boy, I'd definitely want some C4 at my wedding.

[victormakesart]

Amen to that.

I'm always busy, but I just... you know? Being married to him won't change things that much. He's young, so that's my concern, he hasn't really had time to be much of a teenager (even though he's not a teenager anymore). So I don't want to make him get married, or push or anything, but a couple years is forever for me.

(What's Krav Maga? Let's do it!)

Yeah, it's unfortunate. So I need to find a dress that I won't look like a big queen in.
