"May I ask teh Bride for a Dance?"Thinking, "That VOICE sounds familiar...!" Snap looks up and sees.......*Gasp!* It's "Mr. Crispin"--HERE, at her Wedding Reception--and he WANTS to DANCE!!!!!!!!
"SURE!" she says, standing up--then remembers to ask Amon if it's "all right" with HIM [Just a "courtesy", really--as Queen, Milady Snap doesn't HAFTA' ask her "Consort" ANYTHING! *Har, Har!* Jus' Kiddin'!]
Amon "eyes" teh newcomer for a moment, then relaxes--he seems "harmless" enough, NOT like that Dark Schneider character....! He nods, and Snap goes off for her dance......
"After what happened teh LAST time you visited with us, I figured you WOULDN'T be returning, even tho' I DID send you an Invitation..." chirped Snap to her favorite VA.
"Welllll...."Fame" has it's "Price", I realized, and occasionally being "attacked' by over-enthusiastic fans is something one just has to "get used to", sometimes..." He smiled at her, then whispered, "That Peanutcat woman isn't around RIGHT NOW, is she? It WOULD be nice to get home in one piece, nonetheless....!"
Snap laughed at Crispin's expression and said, "No, I THINK she's "pre-occupied" with ANOTHER guest right now, so you SHOULD be "Safe"!"
"Whew! THAT'S a relief! I had a HARD TIME explaining teh state of my clothing to my WIFE, last time!"
Snap had a wonderful dance, then as they finished, he asked politely, "May I kiss teh Bride for Luck?"
Snap glanced at Amon, who had been watching them CLOSELY all during their dance [was there a "Wind" stirring his hair?], and answered, "Yes, but you MIGHT want to keep it "chaste".......teh last man who "tried" something with me ended-up in teh RIVER!"
Our Mr. Crispin *swallowed* somewhat nervously at THAT, but he gave her a gentle, sweet little kiss on teh cheek anyway.......and DIDN'T end-up in Haku's River!
To be Continued--
Being such a nice guy, Mr. Crispin stayed around-ta' dance and "schmooze" with several OTHER ladies [he even was kind enough-ta' sign a few autographs!]--HOWEVER, his natural "charm" was WASTED on SOME others at teh Reception.........
ALUCARD [not at ALL "happy" to see Miranda dancing with teh much "younger" upstart!]: "WHO teh BLOODY HELL is HE, anyway!?"
AMON [STILL a bit "disgruntled" about that KISS--even IF it WAS "harmless"....!]: "I DON'T really know, but he SEEMS familiar, somehow......."
ZELGADDISS [VERY annoyed to see teh HANDSOME VA "chatting up" Amelia--who SEEMS to be ENJOYING it! *Snort!*]: "Well, I DON'T like HIM, not ONE BIT!!!!!"
ALL THREE [glaring "daggers" at po' Crispin
*Brrrrrrr!*]: "*Grrrrrrrrr.......!!!*"
