Well, I don't know if all that's true, 'cause you got me and baby, I got you...

[uberboned]

Who: Gabriel, Jinx, and their friends and family.
When: Friday the 13th, before sirens.
Where: A park that has been shamelessly borrowed for this event.
Summary: JINX AND GABRIEL ARE GETTING MARRIED.
Warnings: Schmoop.

[Friday the 13th is a day of preventing bad luck from finding you- and it will find you, somehow. But for an unlucky little lady who has been a staple of Siren's Port for a few years, it's her luckiest day, so what better day for her wedding?

A small park has been rented for the occasion with a combination of Jinx's charms and her pocketbook and it's really anyone's guess which one won out. Lines of chairs form the aisles, draped in purple, black, green, and offset by red roses everywhere. Rather than a carpet for the bride to walk down, the grass seems to be covered in a blanket of soft rose petals. 

Let's just say if you wanted roses today, you're out of luck.

The reception area stands off to the side, offset by dozens upon dozens of ice swans and... for some reason a living elephant also decked in purple and black. Jinx wanted one. The zoo obliged. The end.

And where there should be an organ, there's a harpist. The groom, standing up at the front of the makeshift altar with the king of Hell on his left and a Prophet of the Lord at his right, looks as smug as the cat who caught the canary- or, more appropriately, the canary who charmed the cat- and despite the few stage whispers of "Yes, Chuck, it's too late to make this a Jewish wedding", all is well.

And when the harpist starts playing "Stairway to Heaven," it begins.]

[She stands up hurriedly, smiling as she curtsies.]

Hello, Iroh!

[tea_lover64]

You did wonderfully out there today, by the way.

[He smiles]

[motioned]

Oh, thank you very much! I tried my hardest not to trip, so I'm really glad it paid off.

[tea_lover64]

You are quite welcome. It certainly was a... unique ceremony.

[That was really the only word he could use]

[motioned]

What kind of weddings did you have back home?

[tea_lover64]

Well there is variance based on your position and wealth of course, but typically the best man officiates between the two promised to one another, and binds their fates together. There is an exchange of vows between the two, and once that has happened, they are married. There is still a party afterwards though.

[motioned]

[She tilts her head, curious.]

They have to be married before their fates are bound together?

[tea_lover64]

No, but it is a more official saying so, and a hope for a successful and long marriage.

[motioned]

Is there dancing afterwards, like at this one?

[tea_lover64]

Absolutely. What is a wedding without dancing after all?

[motioned]

Well, every place has different customs! But I'm glad to hear yours had dancing.

[tea_lover64]

Of course, would you care to dance?

[motioned]

Huh? Of course I would! Do you know how?

[tea_lover64]

Naturally. Every man should know how to dance.

[motioned]

Well, I'd love to! [She stands up from the table with a grin.]

[tea_lover64]

Delightful. [He walks calmly to the floor. Dancing wasn't his profession, but he knew how to with a grace and skill which one wouldn't expect for someone of his build]

[motioned]

[As soon as they make their way out, she turns to him, putting her hands on his shoulders with a smile.]

[tea_lover64]

[And then they dance like this ]
