These kind of ones have this natural ability to make me smile. We just love seeing them happy. Must be quite a day to prepare for though, and I always wondered about the little things....

"Maybe...uhh....mffff.....stay there you piece of.....aaaah.... maybe we could make a mount for it... I am sure if we take the screwy bit off the old projector stand, we can attach it to the bottom maybe... I don't know... can't we make some kind of plan?", Max stands back, holding her head with both hands.

Chloe is sitting spread legged on the garage floor next to her, 'violating' a milkshake cup with her tongue trying to lick out the last bit of chocolate sauce.

"I told you, that camera... lick... is not meant... lick.... for this kind of thing, no 'sane' person takes wedding photos with a Polaroid, Max.", Chloe says, finally resorting to spooning the last few chocolate sprinkles out the bottom of her milkshake with her inhumanly long fingers.

Max slumps down next to her, defeated.

"But lucky for you... I'm not sane... and you're not just marrying me for my looks... so don't worry Maxi-Pad... I have a plan... but first, I need a KISS from my belooooooved....", she leans over, and grabs Max's face with her sticky fingers, and starts planting sticky slobbery chocolate kisses all over her fiance's face.

"Chloeeeeeeeee, not with that mouuuuth.... stopppp....I don't know wherrrre it's beeeeen....", Max tries to fight off the taller girl at first, but eventually relents, and accepts her fate.

Chloe leans in, and gently kisses her wife-to-be on her mouth. "Don't worry Maxi, we will make it work... if you want some shots with that camera... then I will make it happen... I promise... do you believe me?"

Max's heart melts when she sees the look of genuine affection on Chloe's face. "I believe you, you big goop... and I love you... thank you... this means a lot to me."

Two weeks later, along the side of the entrance, a small platform has been erected, and its been decorated with huge purple flowers. Mounted in the middle, is a brand new camera tripod, with a special mounting for a Polaroid camera. On the floor next to it rests a huge box of spare film, and a detachable sling, for when the camera is to be carried around the venue.

Kate drags a reluctant Victoria over to the platform, and gives her some last minute instructions on which photos to take as the guests start wandering in.

"I wonder how Chloe managed to afford this set up, its amazing... the spare film alone must have cost her quite a penny..."

"Yeah, who knows... maybe she sold her hair to a smurf or something.", Victoria answers, rolling her eyes.

"Vicky, be nice... this is their big day... now remember, they are counting on you... but more importantly, I am counting on you... you just have to do this until the ceremony is over, and then I will take over...", Kate gives Victoria's hand a soft squeeze, and gives her girlfriend a quick kiss on the cheek.

Victoria tries to hide her red blotchy blushing face with her shoulder as she starts to prepare the camera.

"Yeahwellwhynotgetsomeonelsetodothis youknowhowIfeelaboutthatbluehairedlout andwhointheirrightmindtakeswedding photoswithapolaroidanyway...", Victoria mumbles under her breath. Kate sighs, smiles and sprints off to do her maid-of-honor duties when she hears Chloe's truck roaring into the nature park's parking lot.

Noticing something in the corner of her eye, Victoria slowly walks over to the tripod, bends down, and picks off the small price tag with her nail she had forgotten to remove earlier.

cuuute... and i love the background chasemarsh too

but also, that camera has a standard tripod hole, lol

Well, I think Max's one, the one based on a Polaroid JobPro 600 has a tripod thread, but the one Chloe gives her is probably based on the Spectra 1200si, or 1200FF, which does NOT have thread, so... i'm going with that one... lol

Oh, yeah, there is ALWAYS time for a bit of background Chasemarsh... I believe if anyone could reign in the queen bitch it would our girl Kate.

The bigger mystery however is.... what did Chloe have to do to do get Veronica to pay for the setup lol... THAT is the $10 000 question... when we find out more... in our next episode of... 'Days are Strange'.

NOTE: Also, is that your camera? cool... I had a old Polaroid somewhere... but film was so expensive I didn't keep track of what I did with it... NOW i'm sorry I didn't hold on to it.

huh, weird. all three of my spectras have tripod holes (this one is a spectra system -- or welp, image system, because it's the euro model), and i'm weirded out that some don't have one because of spectra's premium positioning in general. that said, your story is def cuter this way

and yup, it's mine

and yeah, Kari has her ways, do not ever doubt her

also, yeah, damn, i hope you find your polaroid sometime. the cameras aren't very expensive though. my personal favorite is the impulse af, it's just so frickin easy and comfy to use, and its film is still in production. (rip spectra -- although there's a jig i found a while back, i should order one to see if i can shoot some 600 through this bad boy.) but yeah, you're not wrong about the film, lol

By me, finding ones in good nic are like finding gold chicken teeth... and the ones that ARE in good condition are very pricey... not to mention the film. I just need to go dig through the boxes, i'm sure ill find it... its probably hidden under my one of a kind, limited edition, golden schlond-poofa... (google it 🤣)

One would think you can pop that doodad out, and find the thread, but nope... nada. It's obviously a localized thing. I can't remember what model I had, but I don't think it had a mount thread, but I could be wrong. Either way, as you said... this story works because Max's one didn't.
