[wynonna does not use the network often, and as she does so she's sort of making an informal wedding announcement, though she does not mean to, as her actual focus will become apparent soon.]

So. Has anyone just had the closets go completely rogue on them? Because I was looking for things to help me plan a wedding and somehow I ended up with this instead:

[she moves the camera to show off the siamese kitten she dug out of the closet along with some toys she pulled out for it after because she felt bad for it. it seemed so bored and restless.]

It's so cute I'd feel bad sending it back so I guess I am a cat-mom now? Which means this little lady needs a name. I'm pretty sure she's a lady -- I didn't see any balls on her.

[always a class act, wynonna.

but she has another thing she wants to talk about, so she adjusts the filters for the second half of the post, making it locked away from one doc holliday]

Okay, so if anyone is still paying attention to this, I have a question: it's my fiancé's birthday in a couple of weeks and I have no idea what to get him and when I asked for anon advice about him last year it worked out okay, so maybe owning up to needing the help this time will work too. Just what do you get for someone who is turning 167 anyway?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

It's a girl's name. It don't count when it's used on a boy.

_{[Sorry, Mona, but it's true. May your ears burn, burn, burn, baby.]}

What! _{[But!!! Ryuji makes a put out noise.]} Everyone looks so cool in the westerns, though. You're marrying an American cowboy guy who doesn't like John Wayne?

_{[Who's really the weird one here.]}

Right. Well, if I ever end up with another cat, I'll be sure to name her Mona.

[but this one is CeCe now. whether she likes it or not.]

Don't let him hear you call him a cowboy or you'll never hear the end of it over the differences between being a ranch hand and being a gunslinger. And Doc doesn't really like movies at all, but especially not ones that romanticize the old west. I pity the fool who makes the mistake of showing him Tombstone.

Heh, I'll hold you to that. And look on the bright side, you can have as many cats as you want now without becoming one of those crazy spinster cat ladies.

_{[Marriage perks???]}

Whoa, but cowboys are sweet... _{[Guess who really doesn't know the semantic difference between the terms and hasn't bothered to learn before.]} Don't think I'd mind seein' a movie about me! They could get it all wrong, but it'd nice knowin' someone was interested enough to make one.

_{[And, like... no offense, Doc, but you do seem like you stepped out of a movie, bro.]}

Guess no wild west theme at the weddin', huh.

_{[ :( ]}

I think Doc will kill me if I spring anymore surprise cats on him.

[okay, maybe an exaggeration, but she still thinks he probably would not appreciate it.]

Yeah, I guess he just doesn't see it like that. I once left a history book I got from the library about him and he marked it up with red pen every time they got a fact wrong.

[he's a little sensitive, okay?]

I mean, it probably would be if he was planning it, he'd probably make chose some ridiculous extra victorian-style dress -- needless to say I will be planning most of it, even if I have no idea what I'm doing.

Since when does anyone tell you what to do? Bein' engaged has made you soft.

_{[Don't let your man dictate your cat terms, Wynonna.]}

Maybe he should be the one directin' western movies. _{[Now there's a thought.]} If you're vetoing the cowboy theme, does that mean he ain't wearin' a big hat neither?

[ryuji's words his a chord, if only because it has been something wynonna has thought before -- that this place in general has made her too soft, but she tries to brush it off.]

He knows better than to actually explicitly tell me not to do something -- that usually ends badly for everyone involved.

[as she will often do the opposite just out of spite. whoops.

at his question she snorts a little]

I know better than to come between Doc and his hats, though I am making sure he doesn't end up wearing anything that's too ridiculous.

_{[If she's gotten soft, they've all gotten soft. Some people prefer it here more than others, but it's hard not to settle in at least to some degree when you live somewhere for so long and build up a lifestyle. He's had similar concerns himself.

But he's not about to let that impact his happiness for Wynonna and Doc. If they want to get hitched in Wonderland, and they should get hitched in Wonderland any damn well way they want.]}

Glad to hear you're not gonna go full housewife on us. Not that there's anything bad with housewives--my mom's one and she's as good as they come. Minus the wife part.

_{[Now he's just imagining Wynonna in one of his mom's kitchen aprons... hm, might not be such a bad look...]}

So he is wearin' a hat! Shit! That's gonna look rad with that giant mustache! I mean--I'm invited, right? So I get to watch? I ain't seen a weddin' in real life before.

[wynonna lets out a laugh at that -- whatever worry she had about going soft seems to be gone when she sees the oppertunity to make fun of doc a little:]

If anyone is the housewife, it's definitely him, not me. He's constantly getting on my case about leaving a mess in my wake.

[she does her best impression of doc's honeyed georgian accent and by best the narration means it's actually pretty ridiculous and bad.]

Wynonna, if you eat in our bed one more time I swear I will not be responsible for my actions.

[she can rock an apron tbh.]

Of course you're invited! Wouldn't be the same without you, kid.

_{[Lalalala, can't hear you! He'd prefer not to think about the two of you in bed with or without cookie crumbs, thanks, thank you--]}

Does he cook the food, though? 'Cause that might be the decidin' factor if he's the housewife or not.

_{[Cooking and cleaning--that's classic Mrs. Sakamoto right there.]}

Aw, sweet! _{[Thanks for your vote, Wynonna.]} Then count me in!

[sorry ryuji, being friends with wynonna means getting occasionally tmi-ed. if she doesn't censor herself around her sister, she's not going to for you.]

He does sometimes -- he even wakes me up with Breakfast, sometimes.

[it's best for everyone involved that wynonna does not cook. ]

Good. I'll let you know when we get a date figured out.

Well! It's official. He'll be the wife.

_{[He laughs now, but let's hope Doc doesn't find a way to watch this later...]}

Fine by me! In the meantime, I guess you got a birthday gift to square away, huh? At this rate you're gonna be runnin' a zoo if the closets give you an animal every time you ask for somethin'...

He's totally the housewife. I should get him an apron.

[she's totally going to pull one out of the closet and see if she can get doc to wear it. sorry doc. this is what you have signed up for.]

I think he'll kill me if I pull out anymore pets so let's hope this is the only one....
