[Death is rather old fashioned so he's still not very good with this technology even though he's been on the ship for a few months now. The video shakiness for a moment probably doesn't help to soften the fact that you are now staring into the face of a skeleton in a black robe. The voice seeming to just appear in your head rather then entering your ears via the normal route probably doesn't make things better either.

Sorry, he can't help it.  He also sounds a little hesitant.]

THIS MAY SOUND LIKE A VERY ODD QUESTION ....ESPECIALLY FOR THIS LOCATION.

BUT ARE THERE ANY UNIVERSALLY ACCEPTED MARRIAGE TRADITIONS? BESIDES THE END RESULT I MEAN?

[Granny is giving the communicator a look that someone who knows her might actually recognize as being utterly perplexed.]

Why are ye asking that question?

[No, really]

Why are ye asking that question?

[This makes no sense]

Why are ye asking that question?

[Dear universe this makes no sense can't they go back to the nice place with all the elephants on turtles where things are sensible?]

Why are ye asking that question?

[ Have a rather cheerful hobbit looking up at you, radiating eagerness and helpfulness. ]

Well, normally there is a bit of a ceremony, and a party afterwards, and lots of good food and flowers.

[ He squints a bit at the image, but it is not the strangest thing he has ever seen (close, but not quite), so he isn't near as fazed as he ought to be. Also, the person asked about a wedding, and everyone knows hobbits are the best at those. And everything else, really. ]

Have you never planned a wedding before? I could help you out if you'd like.

[Now that's not a face a person is inclined to forget]

I take it you found a solution to your terminology troubles, then?

[Pepper seriously sounds surprised by this.]

You're getting married?

[ mawwiage. mawwiage is what bwings us togethew today — no, but in all honesty, brad hates the idea of marriage and it has nothing to do with how his fiancee left him for his best friend and everything to do with it being an outdated institution of play pretend in a society of make-belief full of shit, really.

that it's a skeleton asking the question at least makes it interesting.
] If you're looking to get married, don't.

[Ichabod's already quite familiar with one skull. It would seem that this ship would have him get to know another. This place has an unsettling sense of humor.]

Are you not..[There's just no way of putting this delicately.]..dead?

I can't imagine there's any universally accepted traditions. Even on just my world, there's a lot of variety.
