The acting Heads of the Knighthood - Hasmed and Solace - have made a decision that is not easy for many.  Given the terrible state of everything happening in America, they've decided to relocate operations entirely to the States, and have secured a facility near Las Vegas.  It is certainly possible, with the grim missions that lie before them, that many, or all, of the Knights may never return.  Reactions to the announcement are certain to be strong, but it's time to choose what they will bring with them to their new life - and for some, to decide if it's a journey they can bring themselves to take.

[ This is the social log for anything before the Knights relocate to Las Vegas ]

Comments

[nonconfrontational]

Yes. Because I will absolutely marry you. We just have to negotiate the location.

[And they sure are going to negotiate, because nope too cold.]

And I was talking about the stew.

[perambulate]

You should like it, it's your mother's recipe: Mexican vegetable stew.

[ she's not hedging on the marriage thing, she's just focusing in the stew, obviously, stirring with one hand while she unwraps another taffy with the other, popping it into her mouth. it's blueberry. ]

I'll give you twenty quid if you marry me right here.

[nonconfrontational]

[She blinks at first, turning to try and see if Bea is really serious, and when she is very serious and ready to get married in the kitchen as they speak (sense motive nat 20).]

You don't have to pay me to marry you.

[She would marry her literally anywhere (except Antarctica), and be perfectly happy doing it.

But.]

You just have to promise me that once this is over and we both alive, we have a second ceremony for my mother, so she doesn't murder me and make you a premature widow.

[perambulate]

Oh but I look so good in black. [ is now the time to tease about her future wife being her future late wife? no. but here they are. ]

Fine, I promise.

[nonconfrontational]

Okay.

[Then she glances around.]

We just need an officiant. And maybe a witness.

[perambulate]

Go find a cleric or a paladin, they're basically priests.

[ is she wrong??????? ]

I will stay here and finish cooking and make Zara be our witness. And then we can get married once you come back.

[ gonna text zara like pls come to the kitchen, emergency!! ]

[nonconfrontational]

[And off Rosario will go and eventually she'll return with Anastacia in tow.]

I found an officiant. How'd you do in terms of witnesses?

[100% expecting for her to have just grabbed some poor soul who came in for stew and got forced to stay for a wedding.]

[silvermaid]

This is certainly a very unexpected surprise. [ anastacia is a little harried by the relocation - her whole life and family are here, after all, and there's the question of jared, but she still manages to look effortlessly put together ]

[pilgrimages]

[ Well-timed to answer Ro's question, Zara arrives through the door — ] What is it, precisely, that I'm meant to be witnessing?

[ Let's be honest no one expected Bea to fill her in via text she just showed up to the call of textmergency. This is not what an emergency looks like, generally. ]

[perambulate]

[ still seasoning and stirring the stew, for the record: ]

Rosario is gonna marry me. Well, Anastacia is going to marry Ro and me.

[ married is the point. ]

[nonconfrontational]

And we need a witness so there can be no take backs.

[She's mostly kidding about that one.]

[pilgrimages]

Anastacia is going to marry you in the kitchen?

[ can't you ... do better than that ... ]

[nonconfrontational]

I have been promised a better, fancier ceremony when the world isn't ending, but we didn't want to wait for that.

[And let's be real, the better ceremony is more for her mother than it is for her and Bea.]

[perambulate]

All I need is her and us. Everything else is whatever. Besides, she vetoed Antarctica because she apparently hates penguins.

[pilgrimages]

I have questions about this Antarctica plan. However, I can accept that perhaps they're better saved for after the ... ceremony.

[ 'ceremony' is loosely used here. but zara is definitely looking at ro like ? ?? ? i'm on your side. ]

[nonconfrontational]

[Thank you, Zara. Penguins are not worth the cost of cold.]

I agree. Let's do it.

SORRY i lost this like a ho

[silvermaid]

Is there anything specific you'd like for the ceremony?

[perambulate]

Whatever the cleric wants.

[ she gestures toward ro because lmao beatrice has no opinion about cleric stuff or even weddings. if they skip to the "i do" and "i now pronounce you wife and wife" she won't even be fussed.

this is why they're getting married in a fucking kitchen. ]

[silvermaid]

I just want to make sure to respect your beliefs. I can keep it ... non-denominational, so to speak.

and then i lost this whoops

[nonconfrontational]

Non-denominational is fine. Eldath doesn't really have a lot of protocol for weddings.

[Most of her priests tend to pick a grove and hole up for the rest of eternity, protecting the sacred space, so not a lot of them have a need for it. So she's good with the simplicity of just a simple ceremony.]

As long as it's legal, I'm good.
