Avengers Tower- Clint's New York- Saturday evening

The sun had gone down (you're welcome, vampire friends) and the lights brightening the outside of Avengers Tower had gone on. The outcropping had been decorated nicely with promises to Tony that it would be back to normal in the morning. There was a huppa on the far end with a certain blue mutant there to officiate, and plenty of seating on either side of the aisle for guests.

When the music started, Lucky and Rook were sent down the aisle first, wearing little doggie tuxes, with one carrying the rings on a pillow on his back. When they finally got up there, they were followed by Lockheed, tossing flowers out of a basket pretty much because he had opposable thumbs and that gave him flower dragon status.

And then Kitty came out, looking happy enough that she'd probably bounce all the way down the aisle if she didn't have Logan on her arm on the way. It was time to get this wedding started.

[If you think you got an invite, you did. Yay wedding!]

Eliot -- was only slightly more familiar with weddings than Parker was. You didn't get invited to a whole lot of them when most of your friendships were based on whether or not you tried to kill each other, recently. But he'd had enough conversations with Kitty while she was planning this one to be very impressed with how it had all come together. He was beginning to understand why the only times Hardison brought up weddings involved stealing them from other people.

He was also entirely prepared to physically stop either of his partners from attempting to steal this one.

That hadn't occurred to Parker. Yet. Maybe when they got to the reception and the food, though.

"So, why are they getting married, exactly? Do you know?"

"They're in love, Parker," Eliot explained, keeping his voice low. "And -- you know, there's probably a bunch of tax benefits or something, too."

"Ohhhh." Right. Non-criminals did that sort of thing, if they were good citizens. "I wonder if Nate and Sophie will get married. Well. I think Sophie would want to. New shoes. Nate, though... Issues."

"Nate and Sophie are engaged," Eliot reminded her. "We were there when it happened. 'Course, Sophiemight get tiredof Nate puttin' it off. . . ."

"That was for real?" Parker hadn't been sure, especially since there'd been very little follow-up. "I thought that was just a relationship status thing. Like It's Complicated."

"It is, kinda," Eliot said. "The status between 'dating' and 'married'. Some folks just like to stick with 'engaged' for a real long time."

"It's not like the legal part is hard," Parker said uncertainly. She looked around the room, gathering information. "Is this part difficult?" It had never looked that hard when they conned people with wedding stuff, but maybe that was different?

"Undoin' it is hard," Eliot said. "The whole idea is the bein' married is supposed to be forever. That scares a lot of people."

Eliot, for instance.

"Hunh." Miss Live-in-the-Moment (at least in her own life) could... kinda see that? Sort of? She leaned into Eliot and said, "So it's all about Death. And Taxes."

"Pretty much," Eliot said. "Don't say that to Clint and Kitty though. Let 'em enjoy this awhile."
