(WELL SOOOOOOORRY I'VE NEVEr hosted a WEDDING before!)

Mind cursed himself silently. He'd written a speech: 5 pages in length. But in this moment, he forgot it all. Countless days of calling Fearless back from work to help him wasted. But Fearless always told him to speak from the heart. Might as well try it out.

"That was really nice", Mind said quietly, looking down. He cleared his throat.

"Well to, um, start off... a few years ago I was the most unpleasant, rude, selfish, and all around obnoxious jerk that any dragon would bewail the misfortune of meeting. I was dismissive of the virtuous, unaware of the beautiful, and uncomprehending in the face of the happy. SO If I am ever acting as if I am surprised to be the groom at such a fantastic wedding it is because I never expected to be loved by such a fantastic dragon. And certainly not loved by the kindest and bravest and sweetest dragon on the face of the continent. Cel, you have endured some things that no dragon should ever have to endure, and you'd think to get away from that you'd choose a boring, kind, and funny husband. But you chose me so I guess you have a strange choice of companionship."

And elicit of chuckling from the audience.

"When I say I love you it isn't because of how beautiful you are, or how pleasant you are to be around. It's because of what you've done to me, for me. So on this day when our priest here says 'you may kiss the bride', know that you are being kissed by the dragon whom which o=you have saved, and will never be able to repay you, but will certainly try."
