[Lord A is smiling most bemusedly at his slice of Barmbrack -- after all, it's not like he can eat it. Still, he begins pinching off pieces and offering them to his drones. He's familiar enough with the custom to be amused when he comes across the stick.]

Always a bridesmaid and never a bride, Community. Please, tell me something I don't already know.

[OOC: Lord A will be unusually mean to everyone in the comments. Except Randolph, who probably won't notice a difference...]

You want to be married?

[didiscareyouyet]

You look sad.

[carriesparasol]

I was unaware marriage was something you had any interest in, Lord Akeldama.

Re: permavid;

[atadflamboyant]

Why, how observant you are!

[eternallybored]

Now, there's no need for that.

[atadflamboyant]

Do I? I can't imagine what would give you that idea, peach.

[atadflamboyant]

Oh, it's not particularly, I'm sure such things are better left to you, periwinkle.

[didiscareyouyet]

You even sound mad, right now? Did somebody give you a bad present?

[atadflamboyant]

Now, don't you worry your pretty little head.

[atadflamboyant]

No need for what, blossom?

[didiscareyouyet]

You're my friend. I want to help.

Would it help if I gave you something better?

[eternallybored]

Perhaps you would be interested in a trade? [ She raises the ring she found in her cake. ]

[chuanifrinn]

[Is he trolling or not? You decide.]

Well it's been a while Emer, so sure, why not.

[carriesparasol]

Hm.

You'll be there, of course.

[cravats]

I shall congratulate you, since matrimony would not suit you at all.

[atadflamboyant]

Wouldn't miss it, blossom!

[Because it's going to be a train wreck.]

[atadflamboyant]

I'm listening.

[atadflamboyant]

As always, Dolly, you take bold risks in what you think amusing. If only you succeeded more often.

[chuanifrinn]

A master and servant relationship is a kind of marriage.

[atadflamboyant]

Then, peacock, you labor under a misapprehension that I want such a relationship.

[chuanifrinn]

Well if you don't mind a claddagh I'm willing to go that far.

[atadflamboyant]

How terribly romantic of you.

[chuanifrinn]

Ah...I see, you want something a little sweeter!

[cravats]

On the contrary, I never try to be funny- which is fortunate, since I never would succeed.

[atadflamboyant]

No? It seems to me as if you are a comic genius, given the structure of your recent history.

[atadflamboyant]

You misunderstand entirely, which is not altogether surprising.

[atadflamboyant]

I assure you, there is very little you could offer me that would help.

[atadflamboyant]

Perhaps I would not.

[didiscareyouyet]

I might, if you just tell me.

[chuanifrinn]

Well of course, I've only done this whole marriage thing once and that was...well you'd probably perceive the time differently. So much longer for you I'd imagine.

[eternallybored]

Such a shame.

[cravats]

Oh indeed.

[atadflamboyant]

Believe me, your endeavors provide us no end of amusement.

[cravats]

I am so happy for you, my lord.

[atadflamboyant]

I'm glad we have an accord!

[cravats]

Indeed.

[carriesparasol]

Excellent. I knew I could count on you.

[atadflamboyant]

Of course. I'm sure it will be fascinating!

[atadflamboyant]

I assure you I don't care how long its been, muffin.

[atadflamboyant]

I don't think I will.

[atadflamboyant]

For you.

[eternallybored]

Yes, I am heartbroken.

[chuanifrinn]

Good, because I'd hate to try and calculate the years since Ireland's Ulster period.

[ooc: As an aside I just finished reading Soulless and I'm now on Changeless. Lord A is a real delight!]

[didiscareyouyet]

[A deep frown.]

Are you mad?

[atadflamboyant]

Let us say, rather, that I am disappointed.

[didiscareyouyet]

In me?
