Having lost their last bet, Salesa has no choice but to play the priest to Peter and his pets.
"We have gathered here today to unite these three people into an eternal union," Salesa declares to a deck that is empty aside from Tadeas, Peter's first mate. Tadeas seems to be just as thrilled about having to witness this farce as Salesa is. "If anyone has objections to this union, please state your objections now."
As expected, Tadeas says nothing.
Peter's dark grey suit doesn't fit him that well, but he looks handsome anyway. His pets are lovely, holding onto each other's hands as they stand before Salesa, wearing only veils that barely offer any coverage to their naked bodies. Salesa tries not to look at either of them very long, especially not the big, lush one that makes his loins tighten, and instead proceeds with the ceremony.
"Peter, will you take Jon and Martin as yours and keep them for all eternity?"
Something possessive fills Peter's pale eyes. "I do."
"Jon and Martin, will you agree to be Peter's for all eternity? Separate answers, please."
The pets glance at each other, and for a moment they seem to hesitate. They squeeze each other's hands tighter before turning to Peter.
"I do," the smaller one says, his voice sharp.
"I do," the big one whispers his reply.
Peter smiles wider.
"In that case," Salesa says to Peter, "won't you collar them?"
There are two collars in Peter's hand, both made of simple black leather. Peter's pets stand still as they're collared one by one, as Peter attaches leashes to both collars.
"I hereby declare you three united until the end of time," Salesa finishes. He had struggled to come up with the right words to describe this whole thing, but they better satisfy Peter. "You may now kiss your brides."
Despite his apprehension at the entire affair, Salesa can't help but stare when he sees Peter pull his pets closer. He watches as Peter runs a finger along their jaws, and turns away just as Peter leans in for a kiss.
