Happy birthday to Justworkdamthing!

Consider this as your gift as well!


Wriothesley's POV

 "That is simply not possible!" Lady Furina snapped.

 She was fuming as she slammed down on the table.

 "Do I have to spell it out for you?! You. Need. To. Have. A. Wedding! I will not allow you to get away without one even if it's the last thing I do!" She shouted.

 I had quietly removed myself from between the dragon and the archon a few sentences into the shouting session hoping it would soon die down, but...

 It was only getting more intense.

 As for how we got here...

-

 Half an hour ago

 "Will you sign it this time?" The archon groaned, waving around the marriage certificate.

 Neuvillette really was holding her to her punishment of no sweets and currently...

 She looked incredibly miserable.

 She was probably trying to find someone to take her annoyance out on but obviously, Neuvillette wouldn't be a good choice for that. As such, she resorted to whining.

 To her surprise, however, Neuvillette snatched the document from her hand and placed it down in front of the two of us.

 A pen flew from his desk into his hand and he held it out to me, pushing the document towards me.

 "Do you want to go first?" He smiled.

 "Y-Yeah... Sure..."

 Just like that?

 Look, even Lady Furina's jaw dropped at how casual that was.

 Though, I suppose after yesterday's proposal, this is indeed a much more casual matter.

 I tried to ignore that incredibly bright smile, praying that it wouldn't make me forget how to spell my name by the time the pen touched the paper.

 Fortunately, I was still able to spell my name.

 Having done that, I handed the pen over to Neuvillette, and as he was about to sign as well-

 "What the...?"

 I couldn't help but exclaim seeing Lady Furina looking at him so intensely.

 What's that about?

 Neuvillette also noticed her gaze, looking up at her questioningly.

 "What is it this time, Furina?"

 "Sign it already. I want to see you write your name." She insisted.

 "Furina-"

 "Your full name. I do believe your husband-to-be deserves that much."

 Why the hell was she being so insistent?

 Does she not know his name or something?

 Just what-

 Wait.

 That reminds me.

 "Neuvillette is your surname, isn't it?"

 "It is." He confirmed.

 Archons!

 I'm about to be officially married and I don't even know his full name!

 "What's your-"
