I have questions about weddings.

I need to know these things.

[Mindy will write them down, her writing is mostly printing and it's trying to be very neat.]

1. What do you wear at a wedding?

2. Do I have to get them a present?

3. Should I know anything else about weddings?

[and he sounds positively gleeful]

I love weddings. Who's getting married?

[he'll get to the helpful portion eventually]

You will need formal wear and a gift that will be of use to the couple in their new lives as man and wife. I am certain they will forgive you for not getting them a gift however. Most of what they may need can be wished for here.

Oooh, I love weddings~! You wear nice dresses to them, and if you know the couple, you give them a gift that you think will help them out!

[hullo_sweetie]

1: Dresses. Formal wear

2. Blenders tend to be the norm

3: There will be an open bar 99% of the time.

1. You try to upstage the bride as much as possible.
2. No.
3. They probably suck.

[As soon as Neal asks Mindy realizes that if Neal doesn't know, maybe Brock doesn't want a lot of people to go to this. It's probably private.]

No one yet. But that stupid holiday is coming up and last year there were weddings. I want to be prepared if someone is dumb enough to get married again.

[neverplays]

What's formal wear? Is that a dress? Should I get a dress?

[neverplays]

I don't really like dresses, though. [She's only worn a skirt as part of her costume.]

And what would help out someone that gets married?

[neverplays]

Why are you telling me about an open bar? I'm eleven.

[neverplays]

How am I supposed to upstage the bride? Should I wear a bigger dress?

[heloise]

1. The most beautiful dress of your life.
2. Yes.
3. Never have one Be sure your future husband is kind and gallant.

[her_mouse_jesty]

Really? [SHOCKING. why wouldn't someone like to wear dresses? D: ] I guess you could always ask the couple what you can wear...

And as for the gift, you get them something that they'll need when they move in together! [lol ASSUMING THEY HAVEN'T ALREADY] Matching clothes, or silverware, or cooking supplies...

[ironlady]

A dress would be appropriate. Will you need any help selecting one?

[blabs]

1. Something fancy! Not too fancy, because you don't wanna upstage the bride in case she's like one of those crazy ladies on Say Yes To The Dress and tries to stab you in the eye with her high heels. But something really pretty. Find out if there's a colour pattern or a theme for the wedding, and go from there.

2. Well, if you like them, sure! Blenders are okay because everyone likes smoothies, but you can get more original than that.

3. Wow, tonnes, but most of it you can take as you go, I suppose.

[heirdom]

I don't know. I guess if you were older you'd just have to look better and have a lower-cut dress, but when you're a kid you probably just need to act cute or something.

[neverplays]

Yeah, I don't have boobs. [She pats her chest down just to make sure. Yep. Flat.]

Low cut is just trashy anyway. [No offense, Mol - she thinks you work that catsuit, but for her own tastes it screams hooker.]

Have you even been to a wedding before?

[heirdom]

[Damian isn't sure what to make of that. Mindy with boobs...... Mindy...... with boobs............... boobs :|c]

No, I've only seen them in movies.

[neverplays]

[She doesn't really give it much thought.]

Huh. Maybe I should watch some movies.

[heirdom]

[You are a girl.]

They're a waste of time.

[neverplays]

[Who one day will grow boobs and she doesn't really have a woman in her life to help her through that change.]

So? Maybe I want to waste my time.

[heirdom]

[What, Mol won't tell you about the birds and bees?]

Then do it. What do you think I'll do, punch you in the gut until you promise not to watch bad movies?

[neverplays]

[Does he really think Mindy is going to trust a woman who prefers a chastity belt on her waist? Besides, here it doesn't matter. She's not going to age.]

No. [makes a face] Why would I care what you think anyway?

[heirdom]

[Huff.]

We're friends, aren't we?

[neverplays]

Yeah, but that doesn't mean I should worry that you'll hate me for watching a movie. I mean, if you get mad that I watch [she's flipping through this stack of movies the castle gave her just now...] Runaway Bride - that's dumb.

[heirdom]

[That's fair, he guesses.]

I meant in general.
