seven and forty.
[VOICE, just so everyone can hear her ENTHUSIASM. She's clearly very excited, and very, very sincere.]
Morning, all! I do believe Sexby and I have a bit of an announcement for you, Barge.
Since our first wedding was just a little rushed and I believe had a total of... [muffled conversation in the background] Ah, aye, a grand total of five people in attendance, which for some reason suited us perfectly well all these years....In any case, since our first wedding was a very solemn and rather joyless affair, we have decided that we have no other choice but to remarry.
Dearest Barge, you are all invited to attend our second wedding. We hope to see you all there, for nothing would make us happier. It will be to-morrow in the early evening, around five or so, on the top deck.
We are looking for some aid, for while it will be a casual affair there is still some work to be done. Mainly, we are in need of someone to officiate the ceremony, but we will not turn away anyone willing to lend us a helping hand.
[Private to Angelica's long list of friends (and casual acquaintances) + Akio:]
Of course, I would like you all to take part in this most glorious and wonderful day! I need little more than your support and company, but it would mean the world to me.
[Private to Judas:]
My thanks to you, dear friend.
[Private to Una:]
Will you be our best man? Best woman? We spoke at length on the matter, and think that you would be well suited to the role, for were it a small ceremony you would certainly be our witness.
