*shrugs a little*

Fine, I'll go ask one of my other friends to be a part of my wedding.

Oh come on. How many times have I given you hell for calling me that? Frowns.

And how often do you have to know I don't take much shit from you any more.

*bounces over*

I want you to be my man on honour or something.

It's not shit. You want us to be friends again, be ready to be treated like one.

Smiles. Now what is this about a wedding? This mean I got to dust off my tux?

When I finally get Kailin to set a date yes. I know I'm not supposed to have a best man but I'd want you to be that.

And what do I do if Kailin asks me the same thing?

Um, I don't know.

How about I stand in the middle behind both of you then? Snake grinned.

If he asks you then go be best man for him. I'll ask Psyche or Adrina.

Why can't I be there for both of you?

Because the pictures wont look right. Snake, as long as you're there and you're playing an important role in the wedding I don't care whether it's as his best man or mine.

I love you and you're my best friend but Kailin has known you longer and I am willing to let him have you at his side if that's what he needs.

Besides you can't both stand with him and walk with me down the asile at the same time.

We'll work something out. Snake chuckled. You're right I can't. I'll be happy to play dad for a day.

Like you said, we'll work something out.

*winks*

So when's this happening? Got a date?

No, I said before when I kick Kailin's backside into gear to set one.

You better get to it.

Y'know, you're feet are bigger and as best man you'd have to organise his stag night.

Should be easy enough. Centauri don't do crazy for it. They're more solemn about weddings.

I still can't believe we're getting married.

It takes time for that feeling to wear off.

But we've been getting married for a while now. I just never thought it would happen to me.

I knew it would. If anything Kailin's serious when he says shit.

Yeah, he is.

I'll have to talk to him about what Centauri do for before the wedding. Pauses. Am I throwing the bachelorette party too?

Is that the yelling at one another part or the physical part?

He's supposed to yell at you on your wedding night. Guess they think it is cathartic. Get it all out now and make the marriage easier. I can't see him yelling..

I could see both of us laughing.

I can too. Trying it out and thinking it's silly fucking bullshit.

Would be good because if I get shouty with him I usually want to end up ripping his clothes off.

Figure that fits Centauri tradition. Working the aggression out.

My wouldn't work that out, it would just bring about lust.

Iris "working out aggression" is a slang for post argument sex. Even if you're supposed to be arguing and laughing it counts.

You're kidding me, right?

No.

Can't I just jump to the sex?

It's not my tradition. I don't know.

It's not mine either.

You'll have to ask about it eventually.

That's if we do it his way.

That's not my place to talk this over.

I know.
