you're a bird you just didn't know it [OPEN]

[yardbird]

CHARACTERS: Murphy Pendleton and Anne Cunningham... and you.
LOCATION: The chapel in the Oxygen Gardens.
WARNINGS: Wedding stuff. Casual cursing. Consumption of alcohol. You know, for kids!
SUMMARY: Silent Hill veterans just tying the literal knot, no big d or anything.
NOTES: Backdated to the 17th, after this thing went up!

---

The Tranquility. Home of crazy, bad juju, and evidently love.

The ceremony itself is a casual one. There are rings, of course -- and an actual knot tied between the bride and groom, a ye olde tradition Murphy was rather fond of, himself. But if you're looking for extravagance, you'll not find it here.

What you will find, however, is a lot of booze, procured from the kitchens of the sixth deck and -- is that moonshine? Yes it is.

And food. There's a lot of food. All cooked by the groom (not the bride, so don't worry). You'll find a wide range of traditional Irish dishes, most which will include stuff handpicked from the gardens.

Feel free to prod the newlyweds. Especially Murphy, because yeah.

"Keith wasn't the marrying type?" Anne normally knows it's suicide to get Ellis talking about Keith, but she's in a good mood right now. It might have something to do with the fact that she just married the love of her life but who really knows. The fact that he called her his best friend, though obviously she already knew they shared that status, still makes her smile. It's nice, being able to forget about all of the terrible things that happen here just for today.

"Well, it's not like that, more like I couldn't imagine anybody puttin' up with him for long enough." He smiles, making it clear that he doesn't actually think so lowly of his best friend Keith. "He was always doin' somethin' stupid, him and me both, so I figured we'd just stay bachelors and work on cars together forever."

And then the zombie apocalypse hit.

"Sounds like you were living the dream," Anne says, and it comes out equal parts sarcastic and sincere. "So he's as loud as you are, huh? What are the odds that you two would end up meeting in the first place." The fact that he and Keith know each other, she figures, can be chalked up to the universe having horrible luck.

"We sure were." He assures her, smiling as his mind wanders off into the land of reminiscence. "Yeah, I guess we were kinda one in the same, if ya can believe it. Did just about everything together, too! Us and Dave, sometimes, but he didn't like to get quite as crazy as we did."

"Don't think I've heard about Dave," Anne said, fanning the flames in an unwise way. She knows how Ellis gets when he talks about his friends, but on her wedding day she's happy enough that she can put up with just about anything. As she takes another roll from the food table and starts eating it, she leans up against the side. "Tell me about him."

A dangerous proposition, Anne.

"Well, we don't really hang out as often as me an' Keith, so I don't have quite as many stories, but oh man!"

Here we go.

"This one time, we were at the mall, and there's this little train that runs through, for like, little kids to ride on and stuff? And Dave decided to get on, ya know, take it for a spin. But he was too big for it's what happened. He was stuck in there for hours before the mall security guards could get him out."
