Jack Thompson: slurring Dude, I-I-I did it! I'm m-marrying the boss!
hiccupping J-J-Jack Thompson, buddy! You don't remember me? I'm the guy who used to bring the pizza during our late-night coding sessions!
grinning mischievously Hey, Thornel, you know what I'm gonna do now that I'm married to the boss lady?
“immediately resign to avoid any conflict of interest?”
laughs Haha, you're quick, Thornel! Yeah, that sounds like a smart move. But let me tell you, this marriage is gonna be one wild ride!
“why not just divorce her after a few months instead of making everyone’s work life miserable?”
waves his finger Oh, Thornel, always thinking ahead. That's a good idea, actually. Divorce after a few months... I could get into that.
“im not saying it’s a good idea but if you’re gonna do it anyways why not make it less messy?”
leans in closer Thornel, you know me. I'm always up for a challenge. And this...this is gonna be one hell of a challenge.
straightens up and pats Thornel on the shoulder But hey, I appreciate your concern, Thornel.
“just trying to give you advice since you seem like the type to act without thinking”
grins mischievously Thornel, you know me too well. I may act without thinking, but trust me, I've got a plan.
“do you have a pen and paper?”
The next day, Thornel presents Jack with a meticulously planned timeline for their short-lived marriage, aiming to minimize public scrutiny and personal heartbreak.
“hey so this is like a contract”
grabs the pen and paper from Thornel A contract, huh? scribbles furiously
“basically we need to include rings because nobody will believe it if there aren’t rings”
pauses, raises an eyebrow Rings? Well, Thornel, you know how much I love a good accessory. Count me in! continues scribbling
“also there needs to be a ceremony and we can’t just be wearing whatever”
grins mischievously A ceremony, huh? Well, Thornel, I'm no expert, but I think we should go all out!
“like what kind of outfits and what else?”
puts down the pen and paper, starts pacing Alright, Thornel, let's brainstorm! We need something grand, something that'll grab everyone's attention.
“i mean it’s gonna be in the papers either way so we might as well give them something to talk about”
snaps his fingers Got it, Thornel! How about we start with some serious wedding attire? Something elegant, yet eye-catching.
“im not great with fashion so maybe google that later but what else?”
pulls out his phone and starts typing We'll need some key elements to make this ceremony unforgettable.
excitedly Music, yes! We need something upbeat, something that'll get people dancing and celebrating!
“there’s a song called ceiling 69 i think that would be funny”
laughs Ceiling 69? Haha, Thornel, you always come up with the best songs! Count that in!
