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.

[TIME FOR A WEDDING! If you think you were invited, you were. Some OCD coming]

Parker bumped his shoulder, because it wasn't time for The Kissing yet, and beamed at him. She just couldn't stop smiling. It was that kinda day.

"Time! Exactly on time." She waved to the people in the crowd, then leaned into Hardison. "You look like a President. Way better than a President. Everything's ready, right?"

She waved to Pastor Carter too. She was just in that kind of mood.

"Everythin's ready," Hardison confirmed. "TA an' Kathy were on the ball, pitchin' in with the last-minute prep an' now all we gotta do is get through all the official stuff."

He looked at Parker, all love and admiration on his face. "You are so beautiful," he said. "I 'member thinkin' that the first day I met you an' ain't nothin' changed 'bout that."

Parker thought back to that night, breaking into the building for Dubenich. "I thought you were interesting. And back then, I didn't think people were interesting. At all." She smiled at him, warm and happy. "And funny. And I'm so, so glad that you--" She was not going to tear up! Today was a happy day! "Were patient with me. And stuck with me. Even though I made it really hard for you, sometimes."

"It was never all that hard," Hardison promised, skimming his lips over her knuckles. "Cause you were always, always worth it. All that was was practice for the rest of our lives, you know?"

"Yeah. It was." Parker sniffled a little, and her smile firmed in place as she leaned into Hardison's touch. She might be the mastermind, but Hardison was the one who could plan for the future. Like proposing to Eliot, and coming up with the Plan in the first place, and seeing how their lives would go. She always lived in the moment, but Hardison, Hardison gave her a whole horizon of possibilities. "Smartest man I ever met," she said, echoing what Eliot had said to him years ago. "I don't have one regret with you. Not one that's stayed."

"My goal for the rest of our lives," Hardison said. "No regrets. Just love an' learnin' an' findin' our way forward for forever an' ever."
