Jack sits in one of the chairs by the fireplace, singing to his daughter in a language long gone. The words would seem familiar, though: all lullabies, are their core, are about the same thing.

Love you, precious child. Love you.

Jack blinks a few times.

And then beeeeeeeeeams.

"I'd love to."

[inquisitivehero]

He grins and blows out a held breath.

"Thank you! A lot. And Yes, thank you. I wanted you to do it, After seeing your wedding, it was... yes. Hopefully it will be outside. We have a few friends who will try to ensure a clear sky that day and we can gather everyone in a clar space and the grounds will look lovely and-"

Yes, he is babbling a little.

[jack_inthegreen]

"It will be lovely," Jack assures him.

Hank smiles and bounces. yes, he bounces. He is smiling goofily and happy as he can ever remember being. he is firmly not thinking about his dozen or so other troubles right now, because he has someone to perform the marraige and that means it is going to be okay.

"We figure on a afternoon wedding and evening reception. Out by the lake. That is where we went on our first date."

[jack_inthegreen]

"Very romantic," Jack says, smiling. "There's a grove where some other weddings have been held--that will probably be a good place."

[inquisitivehero]

Hank grins.

"It sounds lovely. Hopefully, within a couple of days, Catherine, you, and I can sit down and work it all out as far as details go. Will you be around?"

He smiles, a little more calm now.

[jack_inthegreen]

"Of course. I'll probably have the baby with me but she's quiet except when she feels neglected."

[inquisitivehero]

"She is most welcome, as is Gil. You would all have been on our invite list anyway, even if you werent performing the ceremony. "

Then he blinks and facepalms.

"Oh, you mesant to talk about it... and yes, she is welcome there too."

[jack_inthegreen]

"Yes, I meant with that--an attempt at a joke. My sense of humor is a bit . . . well, it's mine, anyway."

[inquisitivehero]

Hank grins.

"And ight noew, my brain is tied into work and this nd so isnt working as fast as it should. Thank you, again."

[jack_inthegreen]

"Just let me know when and what you want me to say," Jack says. "It'll be fine. Have a lovely day, Hank."

[inquisitivehero]

He smiles.

"And you as well."

And he heads off to the Infirmary, bouncing even more.
