Proposition 8 was ruled unconstitutional and overturned. *pauses for cheering*
It's a baby step but it will make thousands of people happier and makes millions freer, so I think it deserves a party.
Here's my idea: proposal/marriage/honeymoon/bigot-defeating comment!fic. Any pairing, any rating, any fandom. :) I am extremely tired because it is after 2am here in the good old You Kay, but I will do my best! And there is no time limit on a good party.
Leave prompts for others in the comments if you so choose! Just leave comments of SQUEE! I know you'll be excited by this news too.
A few prompts thrown out to get you started (though writing to prompts isn't necessary):
Unfortunately, Character A had no idea Character B wasn't a virgin. And the honeymoon was fast approaching.

An orange wedding dress was non-traditional, certainly...
Somebody's late for their own wedding!
Hermione and Ron have a lovely, traditional, polygamous ceremony. Their third Pansy looks beautiful.
Eloping!
"If she offers me the choice between a cream menu and an off-white one one more time I will make her eat them both."
Partying in Soho after civil unions become legal in 2004, character A and B meet unexpectedly. They wake up the next morning wearing rings.
Unexpected proposal!
Someone tries to hire Malfoy Manor for a wedding and Lucius sets the peacocks on them. :)

Re: Ah-ha! I got it!
Date: 2010-08-05 09:18 pm (UTC)There! He knew he'd seen a glint and he sped off, holding tight. He heard Draco come up behind him and they raced toward it, focused. Just as they were right on it, he pulled back slightly...enough that they both grabbed it at the same time, hands like a cage. A tie.
Draco blinked. "That...has never happened."
Harry smirked. "Nope. But while we're locked together, I have a question to ask you. One I want you to take seriously and bearing in mind everything I've told you these last weeks. In return for listening and thinking about it properly, I'll let you win."
Draco tensed. "Harry...what the hell are you doing?"
Harry smiled and wiggled around to get into his pocket. He gave Draco a grateful look when Draco kept his broom steady. Opening the box one handed was tricky, but he managed. The stone in the center glinted off the millions of flashes from sudden pictures being taken.
"Draco Malfoy, will you marry me?" he asked.
Draco looked like a deer caught in the light of a Lumos. "W-what?"
"Marry me, Draco," Harry said.
Draco's hand started shaking, staring at the ring. "Tell me one thing, Harry Potter." He turned hard eyes on Harry. "Will you still be with me forever, as you've been telling me, if I say no?"
Harry rolled his eyes. "Of course I will, you prat! I love you and will continue to fuck you and make love to you and eat bad take out while watching a bad movie until we die or you get tired of me, married or no."
Draco took a deep breath and closed his eyes, looking lost. Harry held his breath and spared a thought for wondering why no one had yet to come over. Where was the official?
Draco nodded and opened his eyes. "Yes. Yes, I will marry you, Harry Potter."
Harry whooped and kissed Draco, hand wrapped around Draco's neck. He tugged their hands. "I'm going to let go so make sure to keep it."
Draco smirked. "Oh, I plan to. Forever."
