Were Gwen talking about alien skin samples or a crashed craft fallen off track from its journey to Fultax Four then Jack would understand perfectly. But when the topic fell to weddings then she may as well have been talking in gibberish (it was as good as that).

Still, he tried to look like he understood, even if it didn't really work. The thought was there.

"I don't get weddings," he said finally, leaning forward a little and gesticulating his hands out in front of them. "People pay all this money just for one day that they stress about for months on end, and the day itself is just as stressful, usually with family you don't even want to see, and people that aren't even friends. You want to get married then great, go for it, but why its got to be this big occasion I don't get. Go to a registry office, do it there, get it done with. Sign the piece of paper and move on."

It was hardly a romantic way to look at things.
