Wedding Chapel, Friday Night

As bad idea marriages went, it was saying something that marrying Angela was actually only the second worst nuptial idea Romeo'd had in his young life.

At least no one was likely to die this time?

Not that he was thinking about that, or about much of anything, really, beyond "champagne bubbles FUN" as he stumbled over to the counter, Angela beside him, and started trying to fill in the paperwork.

"Angela, darling, dearest bride, how do you spell Montenegro?"

Observe! Throw peanuts! Film! Bet on whether Hannibal or Dojima will off members of the happy couple first!

Hoshi had a big grin on her face as she set up recording device.

Annja was there helping to set up equipment and offer "proof" of the couple's age and identity.

"This is all so romantic! Two wedding in one day. I'm sure the wedding guy must be thrilled," Hoshi giggled.

Annja looked over at the wedding guy and grinned as she took a drink.

"He looks much less traumatized than he did earlier."

"Maybe he's getting used to the idea," said Hoshi. "Or maybe he's had a couple of these pineapple drinks too. They seem to make everything better."

"These drinks are indeed very tasty and would probably ease a lot of the stress he deals with having to do so many of them."

"Everyone needs to try these pineapple rum drinks. They're delicious!" said Hoshi.

Romeo smiled blissfully and waved at the two girls. It was nice to have people come and wish them well!

Annja waved back at Romeo. "Congratulations!"

She may have also directed that more champagne be ready for the happy couple after the vows were said.

"Thank you!" he answered enthusiastically. "Isn't Angela beautiful?"

"She's gorgeous," Annja agreed, helpfully taking photos of them both. "You're having a fairy tale wedding!"

Hrm. Annja may have had one too many pineapple drinks.

Reno was totally stumbling back to grab the papers that said Sven and whatever her name was were totally married, an' shit. He'd left 'em behind, and...

And- Oh, hay! That was Romeo, up there! Hey, Romeo!

"YOOO, ROMEO!"

...

Waaaaaitaminute, what?

Rikku, for her part, was more steady on her feet. It helped that she was wearing sandals and a sundress, and not her bridal hookerwear. And that she'd sobered up considerably in the few hours since her own fake-nuptials.

She squinted at Romeo, vaguely confused, then shrugged.

"Maybe Dojima's busy?"

Fake weddings: the hot new trend! Maybe?

Reno squinted, taking a moment to consider this. Sure, Rikku had sobered up.

He, on the other hand, was still drunk and still dressed like a colorblind tourist. So her explanation was as good as any.

"Yeah, Romeo! You're the maaaaaaan, yo!"

"I wonder what name he's using?" Rikku asked, leaning in further. "We can have code names, now. Man, Dojima's gonna be sorry she missed this."

Understatement of the year, right there.

Oblivious, Romeo grinned and waved at them. There was a bounce, too. "I'm gettin' married!"

"WOOO! Yeah! You GET'IR, ROMEO!"

Who was the man? Romeo was the man!

And Reno was going to wobble and give thumbs-ups and the whole nine yards. Weren't drunk weddings the greatest thing ever?

Chuck was drunkenly going back to his room when he passed the wedding chapel and caught a glimpse of Angela and Romeo in there.

Well he had to go in and watch.

He took a seat up front with his scotch in one hand and his cell phone in the other. Had to document the happy occasion of course.

"I'm so happy for the two of you!" he shouted.

"Don't worry. I've got it all on video!" said Hoshi, grinning. "This is so cool! I want to see more people get married now."

"I'm all about my fellow students making huge mistakes," Chuck said. "It's amuses me so."

"Well, I have video from the other wedding, too, if you're interested," said Hoshi before taking another swig of her pineapple drink.

"Who was it?" he asked.

"Those two!" said Hoshi, pointing at Rikku and Reno. "It looked like so much fun, too."

Éowyn had seen the marital chapel, but she had not expected to see anyone using it for its intended purpose. Therefore, when she spotted people inside - people her own age even - she could not help but take a seat and watch the event unfold.
