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.]

[And then, since she's not allowed to have one day without feeling incredibly awkward at least once, she remembers—

Don't worry, you were only naked for a couple of seconds.

—And immediately flushes, looking down at the ground as she puts her hands on his shoulders.]

Y-Yeah, just like that! [It barely comes out as more than a squeak.]

[pullsheavendown]

[Roxas is completely oblivious to her thoughts, but her subsequent minor freakout is slightly evident.]

Are you okay? [Maybe she got really nervous about dancing?]

[motioned]

No, no, I'm fine! It's okay.

[Her hands tense a little from their place on his shoulders, though, and she's still not looking towards him.]

[pullsheavendown]

All right...

[He starts them off, a little out of beat because it feels like something's slightly off now, but no toes are getting stepped on yet.]

Nice song, huh?

[motioned]

Y-Yeah, it's nice! I mean, I've never been as good at dancing to stuff like this, I'm not as used to it as ballet, but it's still nice and stuff. The music.

[Awkwardly turning, still not looking at him...]

[pullsheavendown]

Well, you're still better than me. At both kinds. Especially the ballet, but—yeah.

[The awkwardness is contagious.]

[motioned]

[And that actually gets her to look towards him, feeling somewhat less mortified.]

...Really? Oh, but you're doing really well, you shouldn't say that!

[pullsheavendown]

Thanks. But really, you should give yourself more credit.

[motioned]

I'm giving myself credit, I'm just giving you more credit!

[pullsheavendown]

Heh. Okay, okay. I got it.

[So he'll kinda halfassedly twirl her now or something.]

[motioned]

[aww yeah twirling. she feels a little less awkward!]

You're really sure you haven't practiced this before?

imagining roxas in your icon and loling

[pullsheavendown]

[thank goodness somebody does]

Maybe a little on my own once I knew I was going to be a bridesman. But just enough to make sure I wouldn't trip over my feet.

seems pretty legit to me tbh

[motioned]

When did she tell you? I didn't find out she wanted me to be in it until just a few weeks ago!

[With a giggle.]

[pullsheavendown]

I dunno, pretty soon after they got engaged? I think she forgets sometimes and just assumes stuff is obvious.

[And a chuckle.]

[motioned]

I'm just glad she remembered to tell me before the day got here!

[/twirling]

[pullsheavendown]

I can't see them picking anyone else. They really care about you.

[motioned]

Well, I was surprised, at least! I mean, I thought because they waited so long to ask me, they'd picked someone else. I know they both have a bunch of friends. But I'm really honored, too. It was sweet of them.

[pullsheavendown]

You should see if you can get copies of the pictures. You look really nice.

[motioned]

Oh! W-Wow, thank you.

[Flushing again...]

I'll definitely ask! U-Um, you look nice too. I mean, what you're wearing, it looks good on you.

[pullsheavendown]

Jinx picked it out. And helped me with the tie too.

[motioned]

Yeah, she made sure I didn't pick out anything that looked too bad. It might've kinda been a disaster otherwise.

[pullsheavendown]

But it wasn't. You did fine.
