At the docks, then out to sea, Sunday

The colors from the previous days were still holding, if maybe slightly more muted, Fandom's magic slowly fading but still managing to hang on for another day.

Seemed like a good omen as any for a wedding that Eliot still couldn't quite believe was happening.

Eliot's boat wasn't big enough for all their guests so they had "rented" (long story) a well-appointed yacht for the day. It was docked in the Port of Fandom, waiting for all the guests to board. Once the last person had crossed the gangplank, it sailed almost to the edge of the island, where blue water lapped with gray. Eliot's boat was already there, anchor down, Hardison in a tux, playing around with a sound system.

A few minutes to futz with mics and the speakers set up discreetly around the yacht came to life. "Testin'...Testin'..." Hardison murmured. Good. Everybody would be able to hear the ceremony on the second ship.

Looks like it was time to begin.

Carter most certainly had taken the gangplank across and he was pleased (with himself) that the number of people who hadn't taken the gangplank across hardly surprised him at all.

More importantly, though, he was beaming at everyone and anyone as he sipped on a drink.

Weddings were just such a delight!

After the ceremony, Hardison came up to offer Pastor Carter his hand. "I just wanna say thank you," he said. "That was...that was really beautiful. Meant a lot to us."

"It was my honour and delight to be of service to all of you," Carter said earnestly, taking Hardison's hand to shake. "My only wish is for the three of you to be happy."

And, Carter, being who he was, was completely genuine about that.

"We been workin' on it for about eleven years so far," Hardison said with a grin that softened into something much sweeter when he looked at his husband and his wife talking to each other. "Took us awhile to figure out how to make it work but I think we got there. And now it's just...we keep doin' that for forever, you think?"
