The Wedding of VerdSteer of Nothing Much

[Verdauga]

*Hugs Teer back.*I love you too, Teer. *Flicks some water off self. * I can't imagine we're that far away. Look, the current's already picking up.

...witch are shut because it's night time*

*An Otterbadger dressed like a ninja with a postcard sticking out of his pocket leaps from a tree, grabs Lass, and both poof away in a cloud of smoke.*

Darn, not again...

[Kade Rivok]

*Hugs Teer back.*I love you too, Teer. *Flicks some water off self. * I can't imagine we're that far away. Look, the current's already picking up.

*An Otterbadger dressed like a ninja overhears this and jumps quickly and silently through the trees ahead of the boat, fearing the worst.*

It's going to be quite exciting, isn't it? The waka should be able to take any strain. It's quite strong.

[Kade Rivok]

*The Otterbadger dressed like a ninja spots the coming waterfall and begins sweating profusely.  Pulls out an enchanted fork (which is also dressed like a ninja) and waves it about, casting defensive enchantments and featherfall on the waka.*

[Verdauga]

*Chuckles.* I just hope it doesn't sink. Swimming is fun, but not quite as peaceful as this boat ride.

[shisteer of nothing much]

*pats side of waka confidently* It's not going to sink. It's basically a hollowed out totara(spelling?) log, so it's incredibly hardy.

[Verdauga]

{Yeah, "totara" seems right.}

*Smiles at Teer.*
Alright then; Let's go over a waterfall.

[shisteer of nothing much]

*smiles back as the waka gathers speed and then suddenly drops, its momentum taking it far enough away from the waterfall that it doesn't land on the rocks at the bottom but rather lands in a beautiful lake, its banks covered in lush grass with blossoming cherry trees growing at regular intervals. A picnic has been set up on the shore and on the picnic rug is a note addressed to Teer and Verdauga*

[lass of something much]

what in arda...

[shisteer of nothing much]

(Ssh! You'll ruin the atmosphere)

[Verdauga]

*Shakes the water off me and smiles at Teer.*
Whew! I wonder if there are more waterfalls along this.
*Glances around and spots the picnic table.* Do you suppose we should make for shore, love?

[lass of something much]

*pokes tongue out at Teer and Verdie*

[shisteer of nothing much]

(Dearest, it was a picnic blanket, not a picnic table. Blankets are much more romantic, and practical)

*smiles, nodding* That sounds like a good idea. I don't think there'll be anymore waterfalls close by. *takes oars and starts rowing for shore*

[Verdauga]

*Completely ignores Lass, who is about seventy meters away at least.*
(Ah)
*Sees Teer take the oars and grabs them from her.*
Why don't I take the oars?
*Begins rowing to the shore.*
