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.]

[astralling]

My power.

[She makes the next one do a dance in midair with a third nut, making the elephant huff happily as it plays and has to try to catch them.]

[blondejokes]

It makes a pretty neat party trick.

[astralling]

Oh, it can do a lot more than this.

[But hell, the elephant and booze is putting her in a really good mood.]

It is pretty handy, though, huh?

[blondejokes]

Looks like it! [ It'd be pretty handy on missions. ]

Does it take more energy to lift things that are bigger, or is it the same for anything you lift?

[astralling]

Bigger things take more energy. My powers aren't at their full strength yet, and there are still things too heavy for me.

[To demonstrate, she lays her hand flat in the air, pointed at the elephant himself. She pushes up against the air and the elephant does move a little- maybe an inch up, two legs at a time, before tapping on the ground again despite Prue's obvious strain. She gives up after a second and looks at Ino, breathing hard.]

See?

[blondejokes]

Whoa, that's incredible strength. [ She's glad she didn't see any blood coming from Prue's nose. ]

It must have taken you years to master that technique.

[astralling]

[Prue slips into a chair, thoroughly tired out now.]

Kinda. My powers showed up all at once a year and a half ago, and it took them a while to get stronger.

[blondejokes]

Huh. Just ... randomly, or did something happen?

[astralling]

Something definitely happened. My grandmother died, which unbound me and my sisters' powers.

[blondejokes]

What can your sister do?

[astralling]

One of them can see the future and Piper can freeze things.

[blondejokes]

Can she freeze time?

[astralling]

Not exactly. Her power freezes things and people in place- when they unfreeze it's like no time passed at all for them. [She smiles a little and sends another peanut cartwheeling to the elephant.] I'm so jealous of that power, it really comes in handy.

[blondejokes]

Whoever has her on their side is at a great advantage.
