She stood nervously looking at her reflection in the mirror, the wedding gown was striking against her own dark body and she smiled as she saw movement behind her and her Pop-pop slid around her to look appreciatively at her as well.

"So delicate" he sighed as his hands slid around her waist and he pulled her into a gentle hug. "I like your hair loose Punky."

"Thank you Pop-pop, have you seen Autumn?" she asked and he grinned at her as he nodded, "She looks lovely."

"Rarely dresses up these days, I think this will blow her away. She totally expects you to come out in something black and Steampunk. You look so sweet." Ianto gushed, "Don't forget to give Uncle Owen a dance will you, he is beside himself out there telling everyone his Katylyn is getting hitched like they don't know why they are here today."

She giggled at the thought of her uncle waving that cane about that really wasn't needed but he maintained he was old so he was allowed one. He wasn't really old, just middle aged and acting like an old fart. Aunty Tosh had a few more lines but was as fresh and sprightly as ever, looking like a young trophy wife which amused Uncle Owen as well. Cheeky beggar.

"Has he made it?" she finally asked and she watched her Pop-pop pull a face that meant no. She sighed as she ran her paws over the silky dress again, determined not to let Rem ruin her day. If he wasn't prepared to come that was his look out.

"Feather is here" Ianto finally offered and he watched her light up as her fellow midget sibling was spoken of, "And his partner Milo."

"Oh wow, they hardly come out together" she said happily as he fiddled with her bust, "Pop-pop, I'm not going to poke an eye out!"

"just…so proud" he sighed as Valentine walked in to look as well.

"My darling, look at you!" he said happily, "Mama is sitting front and centre accepting well wishes with such a look of joy she might burst."

"How is her ear?" Ianto turned to his son showing open concern as Stasi was still recovering from an ear infection.

"Fine Taddy, just tired. She won't last the night" Valentine smiled softly at his lovely Tad.

"Well, I don't think I will either but your father seems determined to party hard. She can come to my bed if she wants cuddles" Ianto offered and Valentine nodded knowing she would love cuddles with Taddy.

"Autumn seem tired to you?" Valentine had the look of a worried parent and Ianto pulled him into a hug.

"I think she is tired but that orphan Kat she took in on top of her own two Kits might be a bit much, even with her toms helping out" Ianto said softly, "She is still adjusting to motherhood, again."

Again was the word, this latest clowder being her fourth and with her now running the Farm the place was heaving with life, love and lunacy. At least her two husbands did their part, being more like henpecked minions than mates, which suited her.

Autumn loved it, reminding Ianto of Rhiannon with her large bosoms and wide hips, sort of like a plump Marilyn Monroe…well…that's how her loyal Pop-pop described her. Rem just called her fat, Feather called her motherly which she loved and Jack simply cuddled her mercilessly as he bemoaned her not handing over a Kat for him.

Come to think of it, Dad had been a little furtive the last few days and she wondered what was on his mind, finding him zoning out now and then.

"Well?" Valentine said to his little daughter, "Jimmy is waiting for you at that alter ya know and your Uncle Doctor might marry him to someone else if you don't get your tail wagging."

She giggled as she reached for her bouquet of white orchids and fine wispy fern, glanced at herself one more time and then nodded that she was ready.

"Right, I'll go wrangle that Grampy of yours into a seat before he starts a galactic war or something" Ianto sighed theatrically as he rubbed noses with his grandkit and then he turned to kiss his son as well.

"I love you Taddy" Valentine whispered and Ianto hummed happily as he stroked his handsome son's ears, that splash of red the reminder of his name, still a little love heart birthmark in an otherwise white Kat.

Katylyn took a moment to check her tail was hidden in the folds and she slid a black paw into her Taddy's white arm and they began to walk.

Time to marry her love.
