[ There're brief tapping sounds, like someone doing a mic test, and a quiet "is this thing even on?". But then a clear of the throat precedes an ever-awkward: ] Uh... hello. This is Marty. Um...

So I talked. Talked? Shared my brain with? The giant snake guy. Kharil-asuk. Kinda funny, I could never remember his name, but then we had that whole mental connection and now it's all I can think about the past couple of hours. Is that normal?

...anyway.

He wants to get married.

[ A long pause. ]

Uh. He gave me a huge bowl of his... juice... in exchange for me just kinda. Kinda asking around for. If anyone wants to marry him. So now I'm asking you guys if you'd know anyone who'd marry him. For what it's worth, he blesses you with luck and a long life and all that? It sounded like a pretty great deal! Heh.

What's so great about marriage that a magic snake wants it too? Crazy!

[ That user name is right up there with the rainbows and unicorns. Only now, Lockwood knows better than to say this. ]

Hello, Lucy! [ She can probably hear the shit eating grin he’s wearing. ] Oh, I’m sure it would be in name only.

[ exasperated: ] You're not marrying a snake in name only, either!

[recklessenough]

I admit, it would involve a very short engagement period. [ Yes, he can imagine the impressive eyeroll he is courting with a statement like that. ]

But protection from being controlled by individuals like the Huntress? It should not be rejected out of hand.

[ she rolls her eyes to bloody jupiter. ]

It should be if you're the one doing the marrying, Lockwood.

[ honestly, where is george so they can gang up on him? ]
