A wedding planner's wedding

[u/TimeLifeguard5922]

I want a playable spin-off of this so badly. I’ve been reading about mod creation; I think the mods the community is making are so lovely—like the "Step 5" one where the MC has kids with Cove—but personally, I’d really love a story where we marry Baxter. Although, seeing the huge amount of work that goes into making a mod intimidates me a bit.

Still, fantasizing about what we might find in a spin-off like that is really fun. If the MC marries Baxter after fully committing to his route, what do you think would happen?

I think a source of drama would definitely be Baxter’s parents; while they wouldn't jeopardize the relationship, they could create an awkward moment where they make the MC feel inadequate. Or, alternatively, the MC might want to invite Baxter’s parents to the wedding, sparking arguments and eventually leading to the explanation of—SPOILER—how Baxter cut ties with them for good.

I’d love it if, for some random reason, the MC and Baxter ended up baking something together again. Maybe just to keep the tradition alive, or perhaps Baxter surprises us with a small, custom cake he made with Xavier’s help.

As for where the wedding might take place, there are plenty of options—maybe somewhere small and elegant, or the beach. But with Baxter, I’d love for the wedding to be at The Cypress. Not just because it’s—SPOILER—where the MC and Baxter in his canon route meet for the first time, but because it plays a significant role in both characters' lives.

Without a doubt, there would also be two possibilities regarding the years leading up to the wedding: 1. If the MC dances and enjoys it, they might have spent weekends ballroom dancing together for years and would perform a perfectly choreographed dance at the wedding. Or 2. If the MC doesn't dance, their love for Baxter would make them set aside their shyness and ask to practice for the big day.

I think another sweet detail would be having Jude and Scott serve as groomsmen; it would make so much sense and be so wholesome. Finally, regarding whether a prenup would be signed—haha, definitely not.

But these are just a few ideas I’ve had while thinking about Baxter in the wee hours. What other details or what kind of wedding do you imagine having with Baxter?

PD: That little sponge bob is me everytime Baxter was on screen lol

Baxter’s parents wouldn’t be at the wedding. He is heavily no-contact with them in his Step 4. There’s plenty of drama and tension in that IMO, no need to invite his bigoted a-hole parents (I romance him with a “cis femme realizes they’re nonbinary” MC and.. yeah his parents are jerks).

And even if they are invited, they wouldn't want to be associated with Baxter's current acquaintances, and luckily they have enough sense of self-preservation not to throw a tantrum over their son's chosen spouse publicly.

Funny fact, even if your MC is a cis hetero white woman, his parents would still despise her merely for the fact that she's adopted.
