[Friends]

[Phoebe sounds BESIDE herself with excitement] I have an amazing announcement to make. [pause for dramatic effect] Peter proposed! We're getting married!

We haven't even started thinking about a date yet but I couldn't wait to tell everyone.

[/filter]

[Phoebe may have been married once before but that wedding had been... well... a little creepy once she actually stopped to think about it. So she was determined to actually have as close to her dream wedding as possible. The fact that her sisters couldn't be there left a hole in her heart but she knew that they would want her to be happy. Besides - there's always the chance that they'd come back in time for the wedding, wouldn't that be something?

It's such a beautiful day and she's in too good a mood to spend it inside so she's sitting outside in a lawn chair sipping iced tea and leafing through a bridal magazine she found in the library. (Besides, her new ring just looks so pretty in the sunlight)]

You know, there's been so much negative talk lately. Even if things aren't going so well thinking positively is always the first step to turning it all around. Everyone should think of one good thing that's going on in their lives right now. Even if it's small there's always at least one.

((OOC: Open for Journals or in person. Forward dated to Friday.))

Phoebe

[whichwayyoulean]

Well hey, that's great! Congratulations.

[Totalling ignoring all that positive thinking stuff, eeeeyup

Onceler

[kungfuwitch]

[is that something happy coming out of Once's mouth? Really?]

Thank you. [she grins] We've been together for over a year. I had no idea he was even thinking about asking me.

Phoebe

[whichwayyoulean]

[Aren't you proud? He can have EMOTIONS]

Well, it's good you found a little bit of happiness in this place.

Once-ler foreverrr

[kungfuwitch]

[So very proud.]

I can still hardly believe it. We met about a month after I got here. I was happy just living together, enjoying having a perfect relationship for once in my life. I had no idea he was even thinking about marriage.

[whichwayyoulean]

I guess people can surprise you like that.

[kungfuwitch]

They can, yes. [She smiles] He got me a beautiful ring and everything.

[whichwayyoulean]

So he should, too. Always demand the best, y'know.

[kungfuwitch]

[She chuckles] Now I just need to plan a wedding. I hope this one goes well, I really do.

[whichwayyoulean]

How does one even start to plan a wedding in a magical castle, I wonder.

[kungfuwitch]

I think I should start with where to have it in the first place.

I'm thinking outside... or maybe in the ball room.

[whichwayyoulean]

[This place has a BALL ROOM? Once makes a mental not to at least try to find a map of the stupid castle]

Well, the ball room has the added bonus of places to hang those tinkly fairy light things.

[kungfuwitch]

The "tinkly fairy light things"? [She smiles] I don't think I've ever heard them called that before but I do like the idea. That way the reception could be right in the same place, too.

[whichwayyoulean]

They're popular with weddings, right?

See? It works for everyone.

[kungfuwitch]

At some weddings, yeah. I can't say my or my sister's weddings back home had them but I think it sounds like a beautiful idea.

[whichwayyoulean]

Really? What did they go for?

[kungfuwitch]

Piper's wedding was in our house. There were flowers everywhere, it was beautiful. As for my first wedding? Well let's just say it didn't turn out as I had originally planned it, anyway. [pause] The wedding or the marriage.

[whichwayyoulean]

Ouch. I hope this one works out better for you.

[kungfuwitch]

I'm sure it will. [She pauses] Though the fact that my ex is here puts a bit of a weird twist on things. I'm his loss so he's legitimately happy for me... which is just strange.

[whichwayyoulean]

So he doesn't know you're his ex?

[kungfuwitch]

He didn't until I told him, no. He remembers my sisters but he doesn't remember me at all.

[whichwayyoulean]

Wow.

...That must be awkward.

[kungfuwitch]

Yeeaaah. You don't know awkward until you have to convince your ex husband that you know him...

[whichwayyoulean]

Oh, I don't know. Being on the other side of that, I can say it's pretty darn weird.

[kungfuwitch]

On the other side?

[whichwayyoulean]

With Ted. He knows me, but I sure as heck don't know him. I won't know him, not until I'm an old man.
