"Hi, you've reached Pepper Potts. For some weird reason I'm not here right now, but leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as possible with as many messages as it takes to get in touch with you!"

[Pepper may not have spent all of her time designing her dream wedding, but trains were not something you got to wear very often and weddings presented one of those opportunities, but it's not really Raine's style.]

It might only be a small technical change but it's still a pretty big awesome deal, if you ask me. Ooh, did Solomon ask you or did you go Sadie Hawkins and ask him?

[ruinsprofessor]

There was an equal-sided discussion of possible benefits.

[Raine considers for a moment, reviewing the discussion.]

In the end, Solomon left the decision up to me, but presented a formal proposal once we'd agreed.

[lasergrenades]

[Now it's Pepper's turn to stare at her radio.]

Okay, you guys are like totally adorably annoyingly pragmatic.

I'll keep that in mind while we're dress shopping.

[ruinsprofessor]

[Raine laughs quietly. Almost rueful.]

It does sound a bit cold when I put it that way, doesn't it.

It makes logical sense as a course of action, certainly, but the final decision was an emotional one, on my part.

[...that's not helping, is it. Raine taps her forehead with her palm.]

...but you're correct: we do, on the whole, favor the practical.

[lasergrenades]

Hey, if it works for you guys, it works.

[Pepper might prefer a little more flair, but not everyone appreciates a big show.]

We'll find you something that'll knock Sol's socks off, even blind.

[Because there are things that go under the dress as well. Her's is an evil grin.]

[ruinsprofessor]

[Raine can hear the evil grin. And, she finds, she agrees.]

Excellent.

I have some idea of what holds his attention already. With your expertise I'm sure we can find something more than suitable.

[lasergrenades]

Rock on. No one said practical couldn't be totally fun.

[Now she's really going to have to go full poker face the rest of the day.]

[ruinsprofessor]

If something practical happens to be fun as well, then so much the better.

[Multipurpose things are excellent.]

You said the day after tomorrow, perhaps?

[lasergrenades]

Any day that isn't today - I have a reclusive dojo owner to extricate from his apartment with the promise of street food.

[ruinsprofessor]

All right. Later this week, then.

Have fun.

[She'll catch up to Bakura later. It's good for him, to get out with friends.]
