Star vs the Forces of Evil: The Ballad of Earth-Mewni

Episode 27: Vows of Silence

On a quiet Earthni evening, Star & Marco found themselves in the room of Eclipsa & Globgor, playing with Meteora while the two parents were getting themselves ready for a date night. "Oh my, don't you two clean up nicely." Star said, eyeing Eclipsa's beautiful dress that she wore for her coronation, and Globgor, who wore a nice brown vest & tie with a white colored shirt & dress pants. "Date night?"

"Why yes it is." Globgor said with a smile. "We haven't had too many of those, and we're trying to rectify that."

"Aww, date nights are always fun." She looked over at her future husband & kissed him gently. "Marco and I don't go out to restaurants or dress up fancy as much, but we decided we don't need to. Sure it's fun every now and then, but just cozying up in bed, watching TV, and cuddling can be just as much fun if not more."

"That's very true."

"Where are you going, anyway?"

"There's this lovely Sea Bass restaurant in town that we've been curious to try ever since the merge."

"Oh, "Simon & Barry's Sea Bass Palace." My parents love that place. In fact, they had a dinner date at that place the night before their wedding."

"Aww, how lucky."

Marco shrugged. "Not really, i-it's not very pricey. I think you can afford to go like once or twice a month if-"

"No, she meant the wedding." Globgor corrected, which caught Star's attention.

"Hold the phone, are you guys saying you never had a wedding?" Star asked, seemingly bewildered at this revalation. It had seemingly slipped her mind that Eclipsa and Globgor's relationship wasn't exactly a typical one, especially at a time when tensions between the monsters and the mewmans was as high as it was.

"That's right. We never had an opportunity. When I ran off with Globgor we didn't have a chance to have a proper ceremony. When we took refuge in the Monster Temple, we found a fellow monster that had the authority to marry and asked him to wed us."

"...Wait, I'm confused. So monsters didn't have the right to live on their own land, but they could marry a mewman and monster in matrimony?" Marco turned to his girlfriend, hoping she would be able to provide some answers. All she could do was shrug.

"You got me. The more I learn about Mewni, the more I realize how dumb a lot of its ways were." Now Star turned to Eclipsa. "Do you guys ever...regret not having a wedding?"

Eclipsa & Globgor both shrugged. "We find it best not to dwell on it. Not having one hasn't ruined anything between us."

"The crystalization did that plenty." Globgor tried to joke, but it didn't really fly that well with Eclipsa. But a meager laugh & a shrug seemed to brush all that off. "Don't stay up for us." He took his wife's hand as they walked out of the room, onward to their date. He turned to his baby daughter once more. "Be good for uncle Marco & aunt Star sweetie." They got a happy babble in response, which got a laugh from them before they set off. While Marco turned his attention back to Meteora, who playfully pouted at him & stuck her tongue out, Star was lost in thought over the information presented to them. She was only brought out of it by Meteora patting her face with her tiny hands.

"You alright?" He asked her.

"Yeah, just...just thinking..."

"That maybe the castle, or even the Monster Temple, has a room big enough to hold an awesome wedding?"

"Yea, maybe-" Star often forgot how good Marco was at reading her, whether it was her body language or her mannerisms. "Are you secretly a mind reader or am I just that obvious?" But she wouldn't give him a chance to answer. "Actually, don't answer that."
