this is LOVELY. I LOVE how you did this - how you put us RIGHT IN THIS WORLD with very little complication. I love the hinted-at backstory, I love how much everyone here clearly LIKES each other, and I love love LOVE Frank's realization that he ACCIDENTALLY MARRIED Gerard. and how everyone else KNEW. and this cracked me the fuck up:

Fuck, he pinned Gerard down and told him about how he'd non-consensually married and magically bound himself to him, fuck, of course Gerard wants out of there.

LOLOLOL. Seriously, this was delightful. I would read so many more words that take place in this universe! Fabulous job.
