Thirty-Five Bells: [Voice/Action]

[simplestgift]

[Archie is going to head into All Passions today, in desperate need of a dress uniform. When things are slow at work tonight, he'll speak a message.]

Is there anyone in the village who could perform a wedding? A priest or other official? I'm...getting married.

[He sounds a tad stunned about it, too. Even if it's been over a month since this was decided.]

You're getting married!? Congradulations, man! And I just happen to know a priest!

...although I admit, he's not exactly a good one.

[simplestgift]

Thank you. And truth to tell, any priest in this forsaken place is a priest, good or bad.

[goldenglasses]

You've never met a priest this bad then.

[simplestgift]

...You're not being especially encouraging. Am I supposed to be wanting him to marry us?

[goldenglasses]

I'm just saying if you can find someone else you may want to get someone else.

Naw, he's actually not that bad. A little crude and crass sometimes, but I'm sure he'd be on his best behavior for a wedding.

[simplestgift]

I see. [He approves so much of the trolling. So much. There are reasons he likes you, Vash.] I believe Amelia mentioned someone, some time ago. Is this the same fellow?

[goldenglasses]

Yup. Sure is. His name is Wolfwood. If he doesn't see this I'll be sure to point it out to him.

Thank you.

[ voice ] fine fine let's see how many tags i can get in before i leave the country

[herotypical]

...Sorry. That's one thing that's actually not on the Slayer CV. But I'm pretty sure there are religious folk a-plenty in the rest of the village.

And hey, if not? You can always talk Hornblower into taking you out to international waters. Such as they are.

[ hi. she has feelings about your wedding but is (thankfully for all of us) too polite to show them. for once. ]

[goldenglasses]

Hey, no problem!

Now tell me! Who's the lucky lady!

[ voice ] XD

[simplestgift]

What would international waters have to do with anything?

[Have Archie being oblivious to Buffy's feelings. Because. He assumes Liz has things under control.]

Elizabeth Swann.

[herotypical]

Captains. They can perform marriages. On international waters. Can't they? Isn't that a thing? Has the TV lied to me all my life?

[goldenglasses]

Elizabeth Swann, huh? Don't think I've met her, but I'm sure she's a great lady. Again, congratulations this is a pretty big step, huh?

[simplestgift]

...Yes, yes it has, I'm afraid. I've never heard of such a thing. A ship's chaplain, perhaps, but a captain?

[herotypical]

Jack's done it.

[ which, actually... ] Doesn't mean it's true, I guess. Probably means it's extra untrue, now that I think about it.

[she's stepping back behind the bar to get rag when she overhears this. That stunned tone makes her smile, and she sets aside her tray to come and lean on the bar beside him, leaning her shoulder into his arm]

I could pinch you, if you like.

[simplestgift]

Thank you, and yes. She is...bright as the sun, clever as a cat, and cultured as hell.

[It sounds odd, but somehow, the entire thing, even the mild profanity, seems to sum her up perfectly.]

[simplestgift]

Jack?

[He hesitates.]

Good god.

[He sounds mildly horrified.]

Re: Same filter - No Wolfwoods allowed

[goldenglasses]

Oh, really? She's all that? [Oh my God, Archie. You really are in love aren't you?] Sounds like quiet the catch to me then!

[action]

[simplestgift]

No need! [He grins, leaning against her a little.] You're coming, aren't you?

[simplestgift]

[Hopelessly.]

And she is beautiful.

[That sounded downright smug.]

[theoniongirl]

[she gives him a mock offended look] What kind of friend do you think I am?

[herotypical]

...He did one on that sea draft. Or so I hear. Gave a speech and everything. I'm...I'm probably lucky I wasn't there.

[ ... ] You know, I think he's once impersonated a priest. Now -- James. He's grim enough to be a clergyman. But then there's the whole awkward part where Eliz--

Hmm! Maybe there's a Justice of the Peace skulking around somewhere.

[action]

[simplestgift]

The very best. [If she allows it, he'll plant a quick smooch on the top of her head.]
