Plus, she was also perfectly capable of taking care of herself - no protection needed, Gabriel. Thankfully none of that was specifically mentioned, so he avoided a mild reproach. "Wednesday mornings it is then," she beamed and with a double thumbs up.

Hands settling back on to her mug, entirely too pleased with herself because, yes, she did know precisely what he was alluding to. "Congratulations. For real. I'm half surprised I didn't hear about this a week or even a day after we all got back from Atlantis." Again, she could not help but poke at him just a bit - her love language of sorts one could argue. "What date did you two love birds decide on?"
It really had fallen low on Gabriel's priority list to find a running buddy. He had a wedding to plan, after all. "Wednesdays, good," he said simply. He would do his best to be reliable, for Joana, despite not having the best track record in reliability. Well, it was better since he'd met Brody. Maybe adulthood made him more reliable.

"November ninth," he said, leaning back in his chair to stretch. Maybe if he stretched his arms, his face would relax and he could just take a drink of his beverage. "I...and then we...had to get things, um, organized, first," he said, shrugging off the delay. Really, he'd had to find a ring...and then Brody had had to find him a ring, and they'd had to tell their families, and pick a day. Plus, he hadn't wanted to do anything impulsive. Brody deserved better than impulsivity. "I hope you can come," he added. Obviously she and nearly everyone else he knew would be getting an invitation, but the sooner she knew not to make other plans, the better, in Gabriel's opinion.
