β€œIt’s been a while since we’ve spent a night together like this. I was worried you might fall for that new fox on the base,” Arizona confided to Thorson, head on his chest as rays of early morning sunlight filtered in past the wooden shutters of his window.

β€œShe’s certainly a forward woman,” he agreed, running his fingers through her hair. β€œBut I think the display was just as much for her own faction as ours. Calling the Sakura fragmented would be an understatement.”

β€œI saw the way she was looking at you, but I’d rather not spend these moments talking about her or her sisters,” Arizona decided, stretching before rolling out of bed and opening the window. Thorson didn’t miss the opportunity to take in the view, and she lingered there awhile to let him, feeling the warm breeze on her naked skin. A flurry of activity was already underway down at the docks on account of Captain Stevens’ arrival, along with his convoy fleet. Pacific High Command was no doubt close behind. β€œI’d rather spend it with you.”

β€œOk,” he agreed simply, coming to stand behind her. She sighed happily as his hands traveled over her chest on their way to her navel and hips. β€œA bit longer.”

β€œThank you, Andrew.”

β€œAnd we are needing eastern wood, not all of this pine and mahogany, nyaa!” Akashi insisted as she, Brooklyn, and Captain Stevens’ walked along the docks. The minty kitty was particular as ever with her requests, but Stevens was used to it by now.

β€œTell you what, little missy. When I’ve confirmed that my boys won’t be sunk on the way to the East Indies, you’ll get your oriental goods. Way I understand it, it’s only you girls who have surrendered, not the Empire.”

β€œAkashi is a mature woman, nyaa!” she pouted, earning a tittering laugh from Brooklyn. Stevens was spared having to comment one way or another by Thorson’s arrival, the two men saluting one another before Brooklyn presented him with a summary of the shipping manifest.

β€œSupplying Hornet is a bit inefficient on account of her crew, but we’re not paying for it. Everything else is in order in terms of ongoing operations,

These aren't dad jokes...

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

WE DID IT! Breakdown and Recap (10/16/21 White Mountains NH, ~$30k, 75 guests)

Apologies for the novel! In case you'd just like to see the pics:

https://imgur.com/a/aAzWJeu

It finally happened!! After ten years together and two years engaged (thanks covid), our wedding day has finally come and gone. There was an unexpected amount of family drama when we decided to enact covid precautions (namely a vaccine requirement) as well as the stress of postponing our original fall 2020 date, but in the end it was worth every sleepless night of planning. I hope my recap can help a fellow wedditors as they prepare for their big days! I've tried to estimate the costs as best I could but with how random family kept stepping in to help with expenses and how long the planning was (two years) some costs are a little fuzzy.

Breakdown

Venue and Food: Loon Mountain in Lincoln, NH ($11,330 for 75 guests + $500 for extra late night hour)

I would encourage anyone and everyone who has ever thought about a mountaintop wedding in New England to check out Loon. We had looked at half a dozen venues; from historic homes to sprawling estates to farms and public parks. We knew we wanted something romantic, nature-forward, and beautiful. On a whim my partner suggested this ski resort his father used to take him and his brothers to when they were young. We drove a few hours north from Boston and while I'd never even considered a ski resort as a venue, I fell instantly in love. It was the gondolas. You ride fifteen minutes up the mountain in a quiet gondola, nestled in the beautiful foliage, before getting to the awe-inspiring summit looking out over the entire White Mountain range. We both knew we'd found our spot. When we sat down to review their packages we were floored at how relatively inexpensive it was - no venue fees, just a price per plate for their in-house catering with options from $100-150 pp! It included private use of their beautiful lodge for the reception, a day-of (really month-of) coordinator, food, appetizers, servers, a full bar, set up and break down, and the mountaintop ceremony. Of course, this was all pre-covid. We'd planned on an event of about 100 people on a Sunday (to save money) for the fall of 2020. When covid hit, we decided fairly early to pull the trigger and postpone a full year. The folks at Loon were unbelievably accommodating. They let us choose any date in 2021 and didn't charge us a penny to postpone - in fact, they let us UPGRADE to a Saturday at the Sunday price. They gr
