You're really sweet, Tsuru. It's hard for a guy to keep his defences up.

It is what you deserve, Claude.

[ stop that he'll fall in love with you ]

I believe you have a tendency toward generosity, but I'll believe you.

[ ... ]

Shall we get married then?

[ oh! his face lights up. ]

Yes. It can be a nice memory, I think.

[ he looks around ]

Do you know what a church wedding is supposed to be like?

No... I have never attended one.

I assume we need to stand at the front?

I think I stand at the front and you walk down the aisle to me.

[ he goes to stand at the front ]

I see.

[ he goes to the opposite end. ]

So, I just walk?

Yeah, but it's more like gliding.

You have to walk slowly.

Gliding. Okay.

[ he clears his throat and will then slowly walk down the aisle

unfortunately, he is actually very graceful. he can manage to get as close to gliding as you can without wearing a long dress. ]

[ claude wipes his eyes, smiling fondly at tsuru approaches ]

You look beautiful.

[ he shyly... covers his face... ]

You flatter me.

[ takes Tsuru's face in his hands ]

This is the happiest moment of my life.

And mine, too...

[ a sound that could be a sniffle ]

I've waited all my life for this.

[ he smiles

and looks around ]

Now what?

I'm not sure! This is my first time getting married.

[ he looks thoughtful ]

I believe there's supposed to be a priest to offer a prayer. And then we say some vows?

[ ... ]

Tsuru, I promise to remain at your side through peace and war. To protect you, and care for you. To love you until my dying day.
