Disclaimer: I do not own Stargate SG1 or anything associated with it.
A/N: This is probably my last popular story, so I decided to go ahead and end it. If anyone's still reading, go ahead and tell me what you think. To help you remember Marcus is Tremaine's younger brother.
Marcus glanced around the ready room for a moment, "I got an interesting phone call," he began conversationally, eyeing Trawick.
"What about?" Trawick asked, catching.
"Dr. Lawson's little brother Cas called me." Marcus said, "And told me the funniest story I've heard in a while." He smiled at Trawick, "About Tremaine."
"You have my attention," Kellerman said.
"Did you know that Texas, where my brother is currently visiting, has a law that states more or less that introducing a person in public as your spouse three times means that you are married to that person?" Marcus asked.
"No way," Trawick said, laughing.
"Oh yes," Marcus replied, grinning and relishing the reactions he was getting. "Apparently while escorting Dr. Lawson to the reunion, my brother drove off a rather obnoxious woman by asking how she knew his wife. Later, at the grocery story, he made another man back down with a similar statement. The third time, Amanda; that is Dr. Lawson, got some demented ex-cheerleader to run by demanding to know what she was doing with her husband."
The laughter from SG-8 and SG-4 was loud enough to attract even more attention from the people around them. "What's going on?" O'Neil asked.
"Remember Sergeant Carson, sir?" Kellerman said after he managed to calm himself down some. "SGC's most eligible bachelor?"
"What about him?" O'Neil said.
"Well," Marcus said, "he made three hundred trips through the 'Gate single and had to get married by accident in Texas!"
