It had just been a stupid fucking red berry. And sure, there’d had ended up being a serious exchange of looks with Sam... but mostly from the humour of the situation. It had been so bloody SERIOUS and intense. She couldn’t help but look to someone who could find the situation funny with her.

Turns out it wasn’t funny at ALL. Apparently that whole eating the red berry they’d been given plus the serious exchange of looks... meant they were married. Hadn’t THAT been a surprise fucking announcement.

And now they were secluded in some antechamber, where they had been instructed to dress for the consummation. Which was apparently preceded by a small combination ritual/processional while servants prepared the wedding chambers.

“Think we can make a break for it?”
