Private Beach, Neptune, California, Sunset on Saturday, 8/16

[needsaparrot]

Nobody much cares where you sit, since it's not like there's a bride's side, or like Xander and Bridge don't share all the same friends, but the green fabric deck chairs are separated by a white runner anyway.

Lit on either side by softly-muted glow-balls, it leads down to a chupah that's -- contain your shock -- just as green.

In fact, it looks pretty much like this:




Welcome to the Carson-Harris wedding.

[OOC: Up supersuper early so guests and wedding party members can SP and I can craaaaaaaaash. Ceremony will be added in later in the day, and the inevitable followup post will follow. As they do.]

"That was pretty much my reaction, too," he admitted. "Get this. My daughter marries Han Solo."

...

"Okay. Now I know you're pulling my leg."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

"You have no idea how badly I wish I were," Anakin said, pursing his lips. "My children have terrible taste. Luke marries an assassin."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

Marty crossed his arms at that. "Sometimes assassins aren't all bad. Hopefully this one is reformed?"

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

"Not when I knew her," Anakin said, "and she yelled at me when she came for Parents Weekend."

And that was the part that was important, yes, Anakin.

"Okay but she's reformed now, right?" Marty asked. "Because that's the important thing. I mean sure what she did was bad in the past but she's making up for it right?"

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

There was a long pause. "Probably," Anakin finally grumbled. "Luke wouldn't have married her otherwise. They have a son now." He gave Marty a shy smile. "Would you like to see a picture?"

Such a grandfather.

"Of course!" Marty grinned. "Let's see the little bugger."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

Anakin pulled out several photos of a baby with red-blonde hair and bright blue eyes. "Meet Ben," he said proudly.

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

"Ben?" Marty said with a grin. "I think that's the most normal name I've heard from another planet."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[sith_happened]

Anakin smiled back. "Luke's a pretty normal name, too."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

"True..." Marty admitted. "Though I think Ben is a little more common. Is that a family name?"

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[sith_happened]

"Pretty much," Anakin said. "It was Obi-Wan's nickname."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

"I remember him!" Marty said with a grin. "He carried me to the clinic during parents weekend."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[sith_happened]

"He remembered you, too," Anakin said. "You made him paranoid about his hair."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

"I know it's wrong to be proud of that? But I am."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[sith_happened]

"I'd be proud of it, too," Anakin replied with a grin. "Driving him crazy was my hobby as a Padawan."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

"That was back when you that braid thing, right?" Marty asked. "Man that seems a lifetime ago."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[sith_happened]

"Before marriage and children...it was a lifetime ago," Anakin said, nodding.

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

"Well for you," Marty pointed out. "For me it was just three years."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[sith_happened]

Anakin smiled. "I provide the marriage, you're working on the children...it's not so very different in just three years."

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

"Hey. Just one kid, grandpa" Marty teased.

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[sith_happened]

"I'm much too good looking to be a grandfather," Anakin declared.

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

"So the kid in the photos you just showed me?" Marty said raising an eyebrow. "Who is that then?"

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[sith_happened]

"Different universe," Anakin declared. "It doesn't really count."

Way to make up the rules as you go along, Anakin.
