At the docks, then out to sea, Sunday

[vdistinctive]

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.

This was, like, making Nina feel like her hostile takeover of the bookstore had possibly been unwarranted but it had been funny and she got to trade insults with the other blond on a weekly basis, so she... she was still okay with her actions.

Besides, if she gave up now, Rufus would win.

"I never, like, really thought of online sales," Nina mused. "At least, not for stores here........"

Something to consider, she supposed, though she wasn't against using her bookstore as essentially her own personal library either.

Nina laughed, a little, looking a bit sheepish. "He, like, actually caught me trying to get into his stuff?????????" she admitted. "And then, like, was all awesome about it and offered to teach me properly?????????????"

"That sounds like Hardison," Kathy said with a small laugh. "He and Eliot both. They've got this inner mantra of, like, 'everything is a teachable moment'." She shot them both a fond look.

Nina cast a sideways glance at Kathy for that.

"Is that, like............ I don't know........... normal here????????????" she ventured.

Because it was weird and, like, she'd grown up in a school.
