I want to go to Tep's not-getting-married-yet-Bat-Flea-Ship wedding...
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
The SO was the opposite of slow in proposing. We'd known each other about three weeks when he went down on one knee in the piano house and proposed. (The piano house was the practice facility on campus. It was just an old house, with old pianos in every room. We were there more or less constantly and broke in all the time. Sometimes the security guard would just leave it unlocked for us.) I loved that place.
I, in classic INFP form, said, "Uh....I think so!"
The only reason we had a year of sekrit engagement was that I had just turned seventeen at the time.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Hee. My wedding would have been so geeky. Le sigh.
Tim's would ideally involve explosions and some sort of death ray. Which could work nicely with my Batman theme and keeping people from hugging me.

Ah, so we're just maintaining equilibrium in the universe, then, by being your opposite. Fair enough. (I assume you had no explosions at your wedding, though, so we get them all, right?)

I have politely emailed the team arranging our travel to a conference that the San Jose airport is somewhat out of my way.
Everyone's closing up early at my office this afternoon.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Not if you are going to MV
Which you should do, because then we can have sushi.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Tim is not what I call slow.
Sincerely,
Got Married After 13 Years Together

Got Married After 13 Years Together
I actually thought about you the other day when I was all lament-ful. And I thought, well, Scrappy and J. are proof that it happens when it happens, and lack of a ring doesn't mean anything about the actual love in the relationship. And I felt better. For reals.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Tep, I found your wedding cake.
(Also possibly every cake Cash's Owen will ever want for the entire rest of his life.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So unsweetened cornmeal porridge is better than sweetened?
It is better to make me unsweetened food than sweetened, because she cooks for me 4 day a year. She doesn't know enough to know how I sweeten it, but she does know enough to not sweeten mine like she does my father, and to point me at the honey (his is sweetened with condensed milk).
I'd like to note I can legally marry folk in the US, and I will also agree to dress up as any of a wide range of superheroes and villains.
Wigs included.
