For chibihentaichan's prompt of a geeky wedding. I admit, I had to lean towards my geek area... in case you are wondering why I picked the roles that I did: watch this. That is the trailer for the game that I am currently playing. It makes sense now doesn't it? (I know it's long, watch for 2 min- that will show trooper and smuggler...)

"Are you here for the Republic or for the Empire, ma'am?"
The blonde woman blinked at Heero for a moment and then smiled widely. "The Empire."
"This way then, please."
Another couple came up the walk, this pair in orange uniforms. Duo tipped his hat at them. "Republic or Empire?"
"Republic," they chorused.
"Follow me," Duo escorted them inside.
A few minutes later he rejoined Heero by the door. "I'd say we're just about full here." He settled his hat a little more firmly on his head and grinned at his friend. "What do you think, trooper?"
"I would have to agree with you." Heero flexed his gloved fingers and smiled back. "I have to say, this is a lot more fun than I anticipated." He shifted a little in his armor and tapped the chest plate. "This is way more comfortable than standard-issue preventer armor."
"You should see if Une would let you wear it. You know it's up to spec after all." Duo laughed and tapped the blaster at his belt. "I know I want to keep this."
"First wedding I've been to where they've let me carry a weapon openly," Heero reached up and caressed the blaster rifle hanging off his back. "It's bad to hope there's some sort of trouble, isn't it?"
"It is, but I say we so take these to the firing range after. What do you say? Is it a date?"
"Hell yes."
Wufei joined them in a swirl of brown robes. "It's just about time. Anyone else can seat themselves. We're needed."
"Lead the way, Master Chang." Wufei snorted at the title, but his lips were curved in a faint smile. "You remember what you're supposed to do?"
"I won't have a problem. You on the other hand..."
"Hey now, I know my part just fine."
"You haven't lost the rings, have you?"
A panicked look crossed over Duo's face as he checked the pockets of his duster. "I had them this morning..."
"I have them." Heero interjected. "Don't worry. " He tapped the small holder on his belt. "We're set. How about the grooms?"
"Inpatient to get started," Wufei replied and hurried them towards the back rooms.

The seated assembly hushed the moments that the lights dimmed. A familiar march started up and the wedding party entered.
Wufei stood in the middle, the book of services in his hands. Quatre, dressed all in black, stood to one side. On the other, Trowa stood; his outfit the mirror image of Quatre's but in lighter browns and tans. Heero stood behind Trowa and Duo stood behind Quatre.
Quatre reached out and clasped Trowa's hands. The two of them smiled at each other as Wufei spoke. Heero surrendered the rings at the appropriate time and the service went without a hitch to the last.
"By the powers invested in me by the Republic, the Empire and L4, you may now kiss your spouse." The assembly applauded as Trowa pulled Quatre close. "I present to you Jedi and Sith Lord, Mr. and Mr. Barton-Winner. May the force be with you
