When Sam suggested that he introduce Noll's family to Carson, Caitlin and Rodney, John thought that was a good idea, especially since it seemed that Kaevan was quite interested in the other three. So after Sam had made arrangements to meet with them the next day, they went over to table where they three of them were standing while Rodney ate and Carson occasionally sneaked a carrot or piece of cheese.
"Carson, Caitlin, Rodney, you know Noll, but I'd also like to introduce the rest of his family. His wife Ellia, his husband Kaevan and their son Poe."
"It's an honor to meet you," Ellia said, extending her hand to the three in turn. "We are so glad to know that the Guardians, Seconds and Protector have come as was written in our ancestor's books."
"Well, it's an honor to meet you too," Carson said, before looking them over in amazement. "Husband and wife...? So the three of you...?"
"Yes," Noll said with a smile, slipping his arms around both of his spouses' waists. "In Sangui culture, it is normal for three people to come together and create a home. And actually, we wanted to speak to you about that. When Daniel realized that three of you had been mentioned in our books, I was quite curious to hear more. He mentioned that the three of you have been together for several months now as a family and wish to get married but can't?"
Rodney looked at Cait and Carson before shaking his head. "Earth...laws...don't allow it. At least not officially. We'd been thinking that we might just have to have a promise ceremony or something."
"Well, if you wish, we would be happy to marry you under our tradition. It might not be official on your world, but we would still be honored."
