Update 2.10

In all her years in Moonlight Falls Viola finally decided to get the answers of how some ghosts were active members of the town, while other made sporadic appearances as specters.  It was an independent case and there was no criminal mischief suspected but there was rarely crime in The Falls so Viola had to do something.  She first spoke to Violet Slymer, Argus' old roommate, who alluded to having a accident during an alchemy ritual to cause her death but was vague with the details.  She didn't know how she became a living ghost.

Next on her list was fellow officer Frida Goth.  Frida informed Viola that she looked like she did as a ghost because she died in a fire after her aunt electrocuted herself and set the house on fire.  Frida had a bit more information and shared that she knows there is rumor of a transmutation statue that can bind a ghost to someone but that would be in a witch's department.  However, she did suggest to speak to her Uncle Samuel and Aunt Olivia, both ghosts themselves.

Kesler's girlfriend Felicity graduated the two of them backpedaled their relationship with each other  though Kesler was still a frequent visitor to the MacDuff household.

Viola had her final fitting for her wedding dress a couple of weeks before the wedding.  She was not the little girl who dreamed, fantasized, and planned every detail to the nines, but when she looked in the mirror at her reflection Viola felt like a princess who was about to marry her knight in shining armor.

Viola and Argus threw a double birthday party for their boys.  First, Ripley had his turn to blow out the candles.

Later in the day Viola blew out a candle for Hunter.

Hunter was an interesting toddler to say the least.  Argus and Viola had to manage the typical toddler behavior of tantrums, picky eating, toys all over the place, and walking, talking, and potty training.  They found that potty training was especially important because while Hunter was a toddler he was also like a puppy; he chewed on the furniture and peed on the floor if he got his diaper off.

Kailey was accumulating quite the collection of animals.  Before school she would diligently check all the food and water levels.  If she had time she would teach her falcon Graculus more words.  In the afternoon she cleaned out the cages and terrariums before heading to work.

Kesler joined the baseball team at school to keep himself busy.  Argus enjoyed throwing the ball around the yard with Kesler.

The evening of the wedding arrived.  A local party rental place arrived and set up a beautiful trellis.  The teens lined the space their mom would walk with some hurricane jars and lit the candles.  Viola peeked outside and watched the sun set and her back glow in the candlelight.

After the sun set completely the guest began to arrive.  Argus stood under the trellis and watched as Viola walked gracefully across the yard.

Viola placed a ring on Argus' finger, binding herself to him.

She vowed to love and care for him for as long as they shall both live.

Argus carefully slipped the gold band onto his brides finger.

He vowed to stand as her champion and love and protect her for all of his living days.

William, Vivienne, Claude, Orabella, and Zephne were not able to travel to Moonlight Falls for the wedding and Argus had secretly had them on Skype at the start of the ceremony.  After the vows he surprised Viola with her family's virtual attendance.

Argus gently caressed Viola's cheek as a musician played their song.

As the ceremony concluded Argus kissed the bride.  Introducing Mr. and Mrs. Argus and Viola Brown!

Viola admired her wedding band as Argus began a transformation into werewolf form.

Argus let off a celebratory howl into the sky and the reception began.
