Adventure the Fourth [Video; SOOOOO very locked away from Aurora]

[The video comes on without any jarring or jolts; Philip's been practicing.

Stepping back from the Dreamberry to get more of himself recorded, he began:]


Hello, Somarium. This is Prince Philip; you might have noticed my name on the wedding invitations sent out this Sunday past.

Well, I've been handling the arrangements while my dear Aurora took care of the planning, and my side is either all prepared or will be by the time our blessed event rolls around... Except for one aspect.

Someone to officiate.

[Feel free to laugh and mock here, Philip feels like he has it coming.]

So I put it to you, folk of this place. Is there anyone among you that could join my Princess and I in matrimony? As much of a dream this place might be, we'd still like our union to be as legal as possible.

Kudos for playing the best Disney prince~

[Jin just shakes his head. Although it seemed pointless, who was he to dissuade this man?]

Suit yourself. If you're so intent on getting married, to go city hall.

*Bows* Thankew, thankew; I try to keep his characterization straight.

[In turn, Philip nodded... if reluctantly.] I'd heard their officials could manage something, and mean to turn to them if all else fails- but I have to admit, I'd much prefer another option.

A marriage should be binding before man and God; one of their paper-shufflers might manage the 'man' part, but I rather doubt he could do a priest's duty on the other side of the coin. [Or a sitting monarch; 'divine right of kings', right?]

You seem to be doing fine so far!

[Jin sighs wearily, already feeling like he's walked himself into another mess. One he could simply exit by hanging up his phone, but really, it wasn't that much of a hassle... Although he won't admit it.]

If you feel it's necessary, go to a church. Wedding services are generally performed at churches, correct?

Glad to hear it. He's so much fun to develop!

[Oh, you useful Jin. What would we do without your wisdom? Well actually...]

They certainly are, and ours will be performed at the Church of the Rose. Yet sadly, the only priest I've been able to find in this place was a Cardinal that woke up some weeks ago; I rather doubt he'll be able to attend.

[Because yes, he DID in fact look over his options before making an open call to everyone. Shocking, but true!]

[Oh, what would anyone do without Jin's reluctantly issued and generally unwanted information? It's far too terrible to imagine.

Jin stops for a moment to think. He hadn't bothered looking into these issues as they didn't concern him and probably never would, but as far as he could surmise, it seemed like the man's options were slim at this point.

You insist on a traditional marriage, yet there are no preachers here to speak of. What do you intend to do?

[Thank goodness he sticks around to save us from that grim and horrid fate!]

At present? My plan is to ask for anyone who might be both willing and able to perform the ceremony on our behalf. If that falls through as presently seems likely, then I'll head off to the Town Hall and bring one of their duly authorized paper-pushers with me. With all I've gone through to assist them so far, it won't be hard to receive some help in return; the wedding will happen.

It's just a matter of how well.
