The Sherman-Argentum Wedding; Dahlgren Chapel, Middletown, MD; Friday Afternoon [01/06].

[flamesburned]

Although there was a bit of a chill in the air, the wintry day was not that bad for a little wedding, and even the clouds in the sky seemed to clear in the sky for the event. Tucked away on a quiet hill, surrounded by trees, the historic Dahlgren Chapel exuded not only quaint tradition, but undeniable privacy for the bride and groom and their friends and collected family.

The small church itself was…tastefully!...decked out in most black and red, with splashes of the occasional white to keep it from being a little too Hot Topic goth-y, in a way that very intentionally meant to be a reflection of Liz's engagement ring.

And, so, with no Fandom Weirdness^™ to get in the way this time, the day was finally here for a small little wedding several months/ten years in the making.


[[ open wedding is open! Please, please, please feel free to mod an invite if you'd like to attend, because we have both had A WEEK and have not had much brain, but the more, the merrier! It's a small wedding, but not that small! ]]

“The cats are going well, I wanted to bring them with me to the wedding but pops refused,” Hellboy looked a little disappointed at that and then he perked up at the mention of a new cat, “oh do you have photos?”

Yes he was absolutely going up coo over Raphael.

"Of course," Steven said. "When will you be back? Not that there's a need to rush. You two should relax and celebrate long as you like."

"Absolutely!" Steven said, thrilled to be asked. He pulled out his mobile and flipped through the gallery until he got to a section of photos of Raphael. There were some of the cat as is, some of him curled on the couch, some playing with toys, and so on.

He held his mobile out for Hellboy to see. "There you are. Can flip through as you like. He's from the shelter on the island. Bit shy but the sweetest once he feels comfortable around you."

"I'm sure it has," Hannibal agreed. "At least it took you fewer tries than me," he teased. "I'm pleased to see you both so happy."

"That's how I and a few others felt." So good life philosophy there. "But when people get it into their heads that the Troubles are a curse from god and all that..." Dwight gave a shrug. "So compared to that, Fandom is a nice change for sure."

"Gods can be horrible at times," Steven said, since that one was sadly undeniable. "But in the end it's up to us individually to what's right. Help people keep from being hurt or hurting others. I know it can't have been easy but it's good you were able to see past people's fear and still want to do the right thing."

Watts knew, of course, that many people went to the Bahamas to enjoy the beach, and he suspected that's what Prompto and Liz would be doing, but still-

"If you happen to visit any museums or the like, in particular. Photographs would be appreciated."

Steven dropped off his camera. It had pictures of the decorations, the food, the wedding dance, and shots of Steven and Llewellyn smiling for the happy couple.

Right, so. Despite the personal camera's rapid gain in popularity in Watts's time, the majority of his experience was with the digital variety, specifically the camera on his mobile telephone.

So, yeah. A number of his photographs were probably blurry. But there were also some that, while they might not be winning any photography of the year awards, turned out pretty well. Including (surprise surprise) some 'selfie' style photographs of Watts and Steven smiling for the camera.

Prompto awkwardly stood to meet tgat offered hand with his own, after an oh-so-subtle swipe of a doubtlessly sweaty palm against his thigh. "Thanks, Dr. Lecter," he said, and, all awkwardness aside, his smile was nothing but pleased and content with that. "And thanks for coming. It's really great to see you."

"We should be back in a few days," Liz told him, "we're not leaving for the Bahamas til tomorrow," she added.

"Well I hope you have an amazing time just the two of you," Steven said. Then, considering, added, "Three of you. But it's too early for her to be playing on the beach so hopefully she spends her time resting and getting ready for her big day."

"I can certainly understand," Sidon said with another chuckle and a sympathetic smile, "the difficulties some of us face in that respect."

Granted, Sidon very rarely cared what others thought, which always lead to interesting results when he did go traipsing around the mainland or out and about during the school trips.

"You should come visit us in Hyrule some time!" he offered. "I imagine you'd feel right at home in Zora's Domain!"

Abe did look very interested in that prospect, “that sounds fascinating, I do enjoy getting to learn about different places, most of my travel is mission based, the wedding being an obvious exception,” he added.

Hellboy dropped off his camera and most of his photos were of Rain, to the surprise of no one, he did take a few different photos of Liz and Prompto during the wedding, especially of Liz walking down the aisle but Rain was definitely the star of his photos.

"It's good to see you both so happy," Hannibal said. "I wouldn't have missed it."
