The wedding ceremony exudes enchantment. At the altar stands the bride, a striking Medusa, her silver- scaled skin shimmering beneath the soft lavender light. She wears a long black dress that trails behind her, each of her serpentine locks delicately holding a tiny bouquet of vibrant purple flowers. The vibrant blooms contrast beautifully with her dark attire, adding to the ethereal atmosphere of the church, adorned in lavender hues. Beside her stands the groom, a small but well- dressed white- haired anthropomorphic rat. His bright eyes sparkle with excitement and love as he gazes at his bride, his whiskers twitching with nervous energy. The priest, a regal anthropomorphic snake with gleaming scales, begins the ceremony with a smooth, warm voice. Yet, his gaze keeps straying to the groom’s tail, which flicks enticingly. His eyes glint with a momentary distraction. The bride notices and shoots him a cold, icy glance. Her expression clearly says, *“Not today. ”* Her grip tightens around her bouquet, her tail subtly coiling in warning. The priest quickly refocuses, the guests—fellow anthropomorphic snakes—none the wiser to the brief tension. The scene is one of love, magic, and quiet humor, as the couple prepares to begin their life together in a moment of serene and festive joy
