**EddyTeddyFreddy** I might be getting my tummy rubbed but I got my eye on you. :dubious: Keep yer mitts off’n muh unagi! 😃 Ok, I’ll share.

So, do we have a harem merger going on then?

If they’re still cherries, you should break them in gently. Make sure they’re on the _bottom_.

…but you can put the whipped cream wherever you like.

There’s a whole lotta proposing going on, but I don’t see much marrying past this great orgy. (GREAT orgy, BTW)

Me: :)… :D… :eek:… :o… 😕… :eek:… :D… ;j… :D… :D… 🆒

Do you think a mod’ll marry us? Maybe **Lynn** could poke her head in, or even **Cecil**. I’m sure they have the power to marry dopers, don’t ya think?

How about it? Ready to walk up the aisle?

See, my idea was we all elope to Vegas and get married by a team of Elvis Impersonators but I like this even more. Can I still wear my sequined jumpsuit?

I’ll second the skyclad. It sames time going from the “I Do’s” to the orgyin’ and belly rubbing.
