[Video]

[The feed starts with Elizabeth still trying to figure out how to get both Gai and her in the frame. She shifts to her right and laughs when it doesn't really help.]

Oh, this is why I never use this function! You don't have to dance around like this to record sound.


Don't worry, that's still a problem with cameras in my era. Even having a zoom button doesn't help that much.

A--? [She sighs and shakes her head. He'll explain what a zoom button is after they're done.] Nevermind, it's recording and I'm not getting to the point.

Good morning Luceti! Ah, six months back, Gai knelt down in the snow and asked me to marry him. And I said yes, just so he would get out of the snow, obviously. [Elizabeth giggles and shoulders Gai a little.]


[Gai smirks, tossing his hair.] The things I'm willing to endure for the sake of love. Truly a great sacrifice.

You do suffer so. [She gives the camera a look.] But we're finally having a ceremony to go with the great sacrifice his pants endured. On July 30th. And even though our ceremony is going to be small-- [Elizabeth looks back at Gai and nods, clearly this was something they talked about] --we'd like to welcome everyone to the reception, on the beach, after sunset.

[He nods in return.] But if you're just showing up for the alcohol, you're going to be disappointed.

[Elizabeth frowns slightly.] Are we not having alcohol?

Not in unlimited quantities. [Booker, the Luteces, and unlimited alcohol. This is not something he wants to see.]

Oh... yes, very true. [Truth be told, she isn't sure she wants to see everyone completely smashed and littered all over the beach.] Guess that means come early or stay sober. [She grins.]

[Gai lets out a soft laugh and slips his arm around her, letting himself be a little more openly affectionate than he usually is. It's a wedding announcement, he is totally allowed, okay.]

[Yes, he is completely allowed, and Elizabeth rather enjoys the mild public display of affection. She smiles warmly up at him, then realizes a few awkward seconds in that the network is essentially watching them cuddle. The entire Luceti network. Which includes Booker. That has her reaching for the button to end the feed.]

[Action]

[And of course, now that Elizabeth has been bitten by the proverbial marriage bug, she's running around town trying to make decisions surrounding the reception. Food-wise, decor-wise, she's just going to load herself up and bring things back to Gai to see what he thinks. She's stopping at the grocery store, at Good Spirits to get advice on alcohol, and finally she starts sifting through what's in the Item Shop to see if there's anything she's looking for-- mainly, little electric lights.]

[She thinks she sees a plug behind a large bag, and she pulls it out of the way with some effort. Behind the large bag is a bag of golf clubs.]

[Elizabeth tenses as disjointed, meaningless images superimpose themselves across her vision. She feels her shoulder hit a nearby cabinet as she sways on her feet. Once it's over, she's left panting as though she's sprinted a hundred yards. What in the world...?]

[Action] - Locked to Infinite + Gai

[The morning of April 9th brings excitement to House 36. Elizabeth wakes up, feeling maybe a little heavier than she usually does, but after a quick mental assessment brushes it off as nothing more than a desire to stay warm in bed, next to Gai.]

[She pulls brown hair out of her face to check the clock. Well, 8:36AM, it's probably time to get up and make some coffee for the house. A good minute is spent debating rolling over onto Gai and going back to sleep (interspersed with wondering how she got so twisted up in her nightgown--it feels like it's choking her now).]

[In the end, chores win out, but Elizabeth isn't going to completely deny herself. She stretches up and nuzzles up under Gai's jaw and kisses him there.]


Good morn--

[That was significantly lower than her voice usually is.]



[After that bit of fun, Elizabeth comes stumbling awkwardly out of her room--there's a man in Elizabeth's nightgown standing in the hallway and looking horrified.]


Roberrrrt!!

[Booker must never know. Which is clearly why she's screaming for Robert in the middle of the hall. But what could she do? The last thing she needed was Rosalind's thoughts on how to be a man, Booker would probably take one look at her and start drinking.]



[Video]

[The feed starts up, and at least Elizabeth is no longer in a nightgown, but she looks just as panicked.]

No, this isn't a mistake in your journal, it's really me-- [She brings her thimble-covered pinky into the frame and rotates it.] --Elizabeth! But I'm-- I'm a man now!

[Blunt and to the point. She's too freaked out to dance around the problem and break it delicately though.] What do I do?! I don't know how to be a man, I've spent twenty one years being a woman!

[And the best way to learn how to function as a male is to ask the network. Good job, Elizabeth.]
