Thomas shook his head. Their friend needed time to clear his mind from the muck that had been driving him up the wall. He wished he had not been so busy these past few months, that he and Kendall would have had more time to spend being, well, friends like they used to. Thomas had of course known how much more time being a captain would take up, what with scheduling and management, press and having to actually speak at press conferences. The decision making alone had given him a few grays, let alone the late nights and early mornings. Maybe he simply hadn't had the energy to exert into something like a therapy session, especially with all the dramatics Rose had been going through as well.
He reached the corner of the wall and decided to sit down, draping his jacket along the edge, "Here, sit," he said to Rose.
Not only had Rose needed him tonight, but attending weddings together had become something of a tradition between them. Neither of pair were very good at handling the idea of a life-long commitment such as a marriage and having someone who understood you helped subdue the anxieties only a Ravenclaw could conjure. All the different ways it could go wrong, so many possibilities that could lead to a life time of anger and bitterness. How was it possible to know you would want to be with a person until you died? That decision was so very daunting and the idea of it have some sort of foundation had never even flickered in Thomas' mind. Maybe he was meant to become a crotchety old man.
At least he knew Rose would be there to understand his unconventional thoughts on one of humanity's oldest and most lasting institutions. He just didn't think it made much sense!
"Marriage is weird," he said, face scrunching a bit as he thought on it some more. "It's weird. Not like you even need to be married to have babies anymore, either." Thomas ducked his head slightly, fearing Maggie would be able to hear him from the opposite end of the reception. They could barely hear the festivities from where they'd wandered off to, but his former teammate was notorious for her temper.
