Ursa Major, Sunday evening

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

Willow was on a couch in the common area, watching TV thanks to her computer-fu.

Currently she was watching a Bridezillas marathon.

She was a little speechless.

"Also the ones who look like they've gotten onto this show when they meant to sign up for Intervention," Willow said, watching one of the current brides with horrified fascination. "I'm pretty sure if you need that much booze to get through the planning, the upcoming wedding is not your biggest problem."

Meg laughed. "I love how they always try to deny the fact that they're completely crazy. Like it's completely normal to freak out over the wrong colored napkins."

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Or when they keep reminding everyone that it's their day," Willow said. "'cause the person they're marrying isn't a key factor, apparently."

"That annoys me so much! Most of those women walk all over their future husbands," she said. "The look on those guy's faces...it's so sad."

"It makes me wonder how they really feel," Willow said. "Like when the proposal happened did they feel excited or like they immediately had to start barking orders?"

Meg giggled. "Oh that would have been so romantic. They grab the ring out of the guy's hand and then start talking about caterers."

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Ooo! Or they don't even get that far," Willow said. "They take one look at the ring and start talking about how awful it is and how clearly they're going to need a new one."

Willow may have been cuddling her own ring a little protectively as she said that, as though perhaps the ring's feelings would be hurt at the mere suggestion that someone wouldn't love it.

"Makes you wonder how these chicks got proposed to in the first place," Meg said.

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Seriously," Willow said. "If the person I was with cared more about the clothes and the jewelry than the point of the ceremony? I would so run in the other direction."

"Maybe they hid their crazy really, really well," she said, trying to sound hopeful. "I don't want to believe a guy can be dumb enough to propose to someone completely insane."

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Maybe they're insane themselves?" Willow suggested. "Or, in the case if this woman, perhaps what brought them together is a shared drinking problem."

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

"That could be it," Meg said, nodding. "In that case they are meant to be. Hopefully they move someplace far away from me."

"I suppose we could thank them for taking each other out of the dating pool," Willow said. "Though the flip side is that possibly they'll breed."

"Ew," Meg said, wrinkling up her nose. "That makes me fear for our future."

"Yet there are those who claim safe sex education is a waste of time," Willow said.

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

"Those people would be the ones who need it," she said. "Unless we're talking about sex ed classes Professor Skywalker ever teaches. Nobody should go to those. They are disturbing."

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"I missed that," Willow said. "It was disturbing? Normally Anakin's so nice."

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

"It was so disturbing. There were gross pictures and movies..." Meg closed her eyes and shook her head. "It's going to be a while before they leave my head."

"Well... on the bright side it wasn't a drunken woman yelling at you about cakes?" Willow pointed out.

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

"That's a good point," she said. "That would have just added to the mental trauma I received."

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"And possibly created entirely new fetishes," Willow added.

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

Meg laughed. "I don't think Dean would appreciate those kinds of fetishes."

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"You never know," Willow said. "Have you asked him?"

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

"If he has any drunken cake yelling fetishes?" Meg asked, grinning. "No, I'm afraid I haven't."

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Probably for the best," Willow said, grinning back. "If he did perhaps it's best not spoken of."
