(Awesomedude17)

Musa sighed as she looked out the window. Flora and Techna had just been married and she was now getting lonely. Sure, romance wasn't her thing, but she still felt weird without someone to be with her.

Nonetheless, she was still happy.

A letter appeared in front of her. Musa took it and opened it. She soon looked at the note.

Dear Musa:

We're having a great time on our honeymoon. Don't worry if you were. As for the reason we sent you this letter, we just wanted to thank you for doing so much to make our wedding as perfect as possible, barring a surprise visit from Gordon Freeman, but Toriel took care of him quickly, especially before he spiked the punch.

Anyway, as a way to say thanks, this Loop, I decided to use some precognition to get the lottery numbers for the jackpot.

After that, we distributed the money, and had extra, so here.

$100,000 for you and the rest of the girls, the Trix included.

Try not to spend it all at once, we do not want a repeat of Vegas again.

Love, Flora and Techna.

P.S. The PIN's 0619.

Musa then saw the debit card on the bottom and squeed. $100,000, all ready to spend.

Musa heard knocking on the door. She went to the door and opened it.

"Did you see the letter Flora and Techna got us?" Darcy asked, holding up her own debit card.

"$100,000?"

"$100,000! This calls for a Vegas adventure!"

"Are you sure? I mean, last time I went there, I kinda... got drunk enough to sonic boom Area 51."

"Nah, we're just gonna gamble away our cash."

"That sounds... kinda fun actually."

"Yeah. Don't worry, I got a buddy who can fake IDs for us."

"Who?"

"So, the IDs, Gordon."

"Yeah, here they are. Now where's my potato acid?"

"Here it is. Applejack's brand."

"HA! Screw you aliens! Screw you Military! Screw you all, I've got firebombs now!"

"Someone who has waaaay too much free time." Darcy smirked.

Musa blinked, then tilted her head. "...Oooookay then. So, Vegas?"

"Vegas!"

Las Vegas Strip

The sunset was glowing Vegas with a golden orange. The sheer magnificence of the city brought awe to the two visiting Loopers.

"Wow, this is going to be fun." Musa said.

"Yeah. So, what do we do first?" Darcy asked.

"...Get drunk?"

Darcy groaned as she rubbed her forehead, clearly not enjoying her hangover.

She rolled over, and soon realized that she was not alone in her bed.

"What the..." She patted the person besides her.

"Stop it~. I have a hangover."

"Wait... MUSA!"

"Wait... DARCY!"

"What are you doing here?"

"What are you doing here?"

"Okay, let's figure this... out." Darcy trailed off, looking at the ring on her hand. Musa did so with her own hand, and then grinned widely.

"No." Darcy muttered.

"Yes." Musa grinned even wider.

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"I can't be married to you!"

"You can, and you are. Now gimme a smooch!"

"I- Shut up!"

"I will if you kiss me."

"It... It doesn't count. We were drunk!"

Musa looked at the bedside, and grabbed a document. "This marriage document says otherwise."

"Just... shut up! This is the last time I go to Vegas with you."

"If you say so. How did we get married though?"

"Ugh, it's like that movie... what was it?"

"The Hangover?"

"No, not the same. Guess we're in for an adventure."

"Alright, my love."

"Stop teasing me, it's..."

"Cute?"

"GAAAAAAH!"

The two newlyweds sat down at their motel, eating breakfast quietly.

"So, how did we get married?" Musa asked with curiosity.

"Okay, let's retrace our steps." Darcy took a sip of coffee. "What was the first thing we did?"

"Okay... we got drunk."

Musa and Darcy came across as random bar and went in.

"So, what's your poison?" The bartender asked as the two sat down on the counter.

"I dunno. Musa?"

"Hmmmmmmm... That!"

The bartender looked at the bottle and raised an eyebrow.

"Absinth? You sure you two can take it?"

"I can hold my liquor."

"Alright, IDs?"

The two girls showed off their IDs, which got a smile from the bartender, who got the bottle, and two glasses.

"Enjoy."

"Thanks." The two said at the same time. "Cheers!"

"Absinth, we're fucking idiots." Darcy buried her face in her arms.

"It wasn't even good absinth."

"Alright... Let's try to figure out what we did. Musa, get us some cash from the ATM."

"Yeah sure." Musa got up and went to the ATM. After trying to get some money, she got an error message.

"What the hell?" Musa then checked her account.

"Uh oh."

"What?"

"I'm out, drained."

"What?!" Darcy then checked her account, and saw that she was drained too.

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO OUR CASH?!"

Memory gathering:

Darcy stomped back and forth, angry beyond all belief.

"How did we waste all of our money in one night? Even a night of gambling shouldn't drain us of $200,000, American!"

Musa rubbed her temples. This was the first really bad thing she heard recently.

"I don't know. All I know is this, we're screwed without cash money."

"D-don't you have a cell phone or something?"

Musa reached into her pocket and took out a cell phone, snapped in half.

"Yeah." Musa tossed aside the broken phone.

"GAAAH! This is all your fault!"

"My fault? It was your idea to go to Vegas!"

"And it was your idea to go drinking absinth. Who knows how we spent our cash."

Musa's eyes widened with clarity.

"How we spent our cash..."

Musa and Darcy stumbled into the pawn shop and looked around.

"Oh my gosh, they literally have $100K of gold for sale... Let's buy it." Musa slurred.

"NO! That's stupid. Let's buy all those Jimi Hendrix autographed guitars." Darcy pointed

Musa gasped. "That's even better!"

Musa reached into her Pocket, and took out a Hendrix guitar.

"Oh my God, I own an autographed Jimi Hendrix guitar!"

"Musa!"

"I'm sorry, Darcy, but I've got something out of this, well, two things."

"Wait, a guitar shouldn't..."

Darcy and Musa reached into their pockets, and found a variety of musical instruments autographed by various musicians.

After finding a receipt, they found out that they spent only $40,000 for the instruments.

"Okay, the music instruments only took out a small chunk, not enough to bankrupt us." Darcy said. "Maybe we gambled away most of the rest."

"Right, let's find out which casino we went to."

"Or casinos."

Musa and Darcy walked down The Strip, dressed for the hot weather and looking around. Darcy spoke us.

"Alright, let's go find the casino and-"

"HEY!"

The two turned to see a fat Elvis impersonator, stomping up to them.

"What the... Who are you?"

"I'm the guy you clocked!" 'Elvis' said, taking off his shades to reveal a shiner.

"Darcy!"

"Listen Musa, I was drunk."

"Like that matters, I've got a black eye!" 'Elvis' pointed at his eye.

"Who cares, your kind's a dime a dozen!" Darcy spat back, causing Musa to glare at her wife.

"Look, I'm sorry about my-"

"Shut it, just stay the hell away from me!" 'Elvis' then stomped off.

"What the hell was that?" Musa asked.

"I think I remember."

"FUCK YOU, FAT ELVIS!"

*SMACK*

"Ow, dammit!"

"Why'd you punch an Elvis impersonator in the face?"

"I dunno, I guess I hate those freaks for some reason. They're like... hobos with a lame job!"

"Oh, Darcy."

"Come on, let's see if we wasted some money at a casino."

Musa put a finger on her chin.

"Actually, I think we doubled our winnings there."

"Put it all on 37, black!"

"Darcy, that's just stupid!"

"37, black! The purple haired girl and the brunette wins."

"You were saying, M-musa."

"I'm way too sober to be happy about this. Let's go to the bar."

"Yeah, winning so much is lame."

"I stand by the fact that winning money with almost no effort is still lame."

"Whatever. Let's just figure out how we lost all that money."

"Let's check out the casino just in case."

The casino owner rubbed his temples when an employee knocked on his office door.

"Boss, they're back."

"Who?"

"The girls who cost us $150,000!"

"...I'll go speak with them." The tired casino owner said as he got up from his seat. He walked over to the entrance and spoke with the two.

"How can I help you two?"

"Yes, uh, we're retracing our steps to figure out what happened last night." Musa said.

"Well, we can look at the footage. By the way, thanks for stopping after the 150K mark."

"I was too bored to continue playing. Winning too often is lame." Darcy rolled her eyes.

"Right." The owner muttered. They soon found themselves at the security room where they looked over the camera footage.

"Right, check the bar."

Musa and Darcy walked to the bar, where they saw a familiar face.

"Hold on... Is that you?" Darcy asked.

"Tucker?"

"In the flesh girls. Shame you didn't want me for your after wedding party. How was it, the best kind of fun? Bow chika wow wow!" Lavernius Tucker smiled as he raised his glass of amber liquor.

"Why are you here?" Darcy demanded.

"Me and the guys were having a Vacation Loop, and we met you two. You were kinda drunk, and apparently won a shitload of cash. After that you apparently spent it all with Caboose."

"...Uh oh."

"I want a pony!" Caboose said out loud.

"Sure thing!" Musa replied.

"YAY!"

"Uhhh..."

"I love my pony!" Caboose rode his horse into the casino while the police were chasing him.

"The damages that fucking horse made cost you like... exactly $130,000 dollars. Darcy's account was drained." Tucker shrugged.

"And how do you know that?" Musa asked.

"You told me and Church."

"Right... so we know how Darcy lost her cash."

*CRASH*

"TUCKER DID IT!"

Tucker rolled his eyes as he took another sip of his drink.

"I really hate that idiot." Darcy growled under her breath.

"Something wrong?" Tucker asked.

"We're out of cash." Musa said.

"Right. Hold on." Tucker took out a phone and called a number. "Sarge, remember when Grif invented that thing that won him a lot of cash, which turned out to be your invention, and you successfully sued for his money? Musa and Darcy need cash. Wire them, like... $50,000 each. Okay, thanks!" Tucker hung up.

"Wait, you're friends with Sarge?"

"Yeah, we... kinda have an odd friendship. Anyway, you should get some cash back."

"Alright, you mentioned that you were at our wedding. Where did we get married?"

"Follow me, I'll show you."

"No." Darcy said.

"Yep." Tucker replied.

"No!"

"Yep."

"NO!"

"Yep. You got into holy matrimony, thanks to Donut."

"Oh hey, girlfriends! How's your first day of marriage going?" Donut asked.

"Since when were you a minister?" Musa asked as Darcy began to scream out a string of expletives.

"Since yesterday, when Miss Rarity dared me to be one."

"Actually, she said she wasn't sure if you were minister material." Tucker corrected.

"And why would she say something so ridiculous?"

"Well..."

"Listen, this shouldn't have happened at all!" Darcy yelled.

"What? Why?"

"Because we were drunk."

Musa looked over to Darcy with a sad look on her face.

"... Ooooooooh! I thought you were being silly because of how happy you were!" Donut moved sheepishly.

"Does that mean...?" Musa asked before trailing off.

"Well... I'm not sure, but I'll look at my paperwork. If I know my marriage laws..."

"No you don't." Tucker interrupted.

"Than you two could get an annulment to your marriage, and I'll refund your marriage fees."

"Wait, marriage costs money now? Since when?"

"Since... I don't actually know. I just assumed that in Vegas, since you use a lot of cash, that you'd get the chance to marry people to get money."

"...That makes more sense than it should."

"So uh... How much was the fee?" Darcy asked.

"Ten bucks."

"...I'm surprised that it isn't more."

"Darcy." Tucker said.

"Well, I've got to compete with the others here." Donut explained.

"Huh... I wonder..." Darcy said with a coy smile.

"Darcy!" Tucker shouted louder.

"Oh boy... I made new competition. Oh well! The more, the merrier!" Donut looked at Tucker.

"I think I know what I'm going to-"

"DARCY!"

"What?!"

"Musa ran off, man! She looked like she was about to cry."

"Wait, what?" Darcy ran off, leaving the two Loopers in the room.

"So uh, Tucker?"

"Going away now. Later." Tucker walked off.

"Well fine! I can have fun all by myself! It's time for my daily wine and cheese hour anyhow!"

Darcy rode through the streets of Vegas on a motorcycle, trying to find Musa. If there was one thing she could count Musa on doing, it was using sound in unusual ways. In this case, she probably was either making her movements completely silent as she ran off, or she was moving at the speed of sound. Neither of those possibilities were very appealing to Darcy.

It was something to admire. Come to think of it, this was exactly the thing she'd use her powers for if she thought about it hard enough. And then there was their choice of men. Heh, Riven might not have been the perfect boyfriend, but she did think he was hot anyway, in the 'bad boys are sexy' kind of way. Hell, Musa and Darcy are so alike, it was like they were...

Made...

For...

Each...

Other...

'Oh no, please don't tell me that I'm...'

Darcy stopped at the motel she was staying in, and sighed.

'Now I'm having second thoughts about this marriage...'

'Damn it.'

Darcy walked into the motel room and saw Musa crying into a pillow. A pang of guilt hit her and she cringed.

"Musa?"

"Go away." Musa said sternly.

"Musa, I came to talk."

"Oh, I thought you didn't want to be with me."

"I didn't want to be married to you... at least... not like this."

"... Excuse me?" Musa said as she lifted her head from the pillow.

"...Look Musa, let's just get this over with. You're a great friend, and I'm glad I got the chance to know the real you. But this day... It just came way too fast for me to understand. I mean, last night alone was an experience with the casino, fat Elvis and Caboose's Pony."

"Heh, it sure was."

"When you ran off, I got worried, and I started to think about you... and I realized that we're so alike. We actually have so much in common."

"True...*sniff* True..."

"And I started thinking, 'Maybe while marriage was too much right now, we could... you know... go steady... if that's okay with you."

"Hmmmmm. I dunno..."

Darcy frowned.

"If what you're saying is true, then prove it." Musa wiped the tears from her face, and stood up, holding out her arms.

"Give me a smooch."

Darcy put her hand on her chin.

"Hmmmmm. I dunno..."

Musa frowned.

Darcy stepped closer to Musa.

"I mean... will you shut up?"

Musa raised an eyebrow.

Darcy smiled and pulled Musa closer, giving her a short kiss on the lips.

"MWAH!" Darcy saw the awestruck look on Musa's face and laughed.

"Hahaha... Look at your face. It's so dorky."

"Uh..."

"So, how about we go back to Donut and decide if we let the marriage stay this Loop, or annul it." Darcy held out a hand.

"Uh... okay then." Musa grabbed it. Darcy quickly ran out of the room, causing Musa to yelp.

(Several Loops Later)

"Where's Darcy?" Stormy demanded.

"How should we know?" Bloom answered. "We've been looking for Musa."

"Well where do you suppose either are?" Icy asked.

"Honestly, we don't." Aisha asked.

"And I doubt we'll figure out soon." Stella added. "So let's just join together and find those two."

"Ugh, if only Flora and Techna were here." Bloom rubbed her temples.

"We don't need them. We can find those two ourselves." Stormy said as she opened a door.

To the surprise of the six girls, they saw Musa and Darcy making out. The two noticed the unwelcome guests and broke the kiss.

"Close the door!" Darcy shouted.

Wordlessly, Stormy closed the door.

"Found them."

"It was inevitable." Bloom shrugged before walking off.

"Would someone explain to me what's going on?" Icy asked.

Firehawk242's note: So Awesomedude did a thing (again), and, well, this happened. It's a bit smaller than his other works, but he's working with just two characters here, so I'll cut him some slack. I think they're just dating at this point, but damifino what's really going on here. Riven is gonna be severely weirded out at some point.

Also, I know it's been a while since our last regular update. We're working on it, but it's been slow going, particularly since I (Firehawk242) haven't had as much time for this as I used to. We're hoping to have it out soon, but no guarantees. Sorry about that.
