But you might have been busy doing important work and miss it!

[matchbreaker]

True, true, I'm grateful for the chance here! Because this really is a big deal!

[sakeplz]

That's why I had to announce it! I wanted everyone to know!

[matchbreaker]

So you weren't just looking forward to a flood of affection?

[sakeplz]

I get that everyday~

[matchbreaker]

Somehow you strike me as the most affectionate one!

But okay, okay. I'll see you in a little bit, let me look at least a little presentable

[sakeplz]

Awwwwwwwwww you're beautiful no matter what!

[matchbreaker]

I'm flattered but tell me when I've not been camping for weeks

[sakeplz]

This is exactly when I should tell you. Then you'll know I really mean it.

[matchbreaker]

Then you'll know I'm going to fix my hair at least! You're not seeing this raw!

[sakeplz]

lol Well if you say so! You'll be beautiful no matter what but okay.

[matchbreaker]

[ SHE DOES INSIST BUT .... yeah she'll meet him there with her hair up in a bun and otherwise looking much the same as ever. Though because it's night she can keep the sunglasses off. That's nice. But yeah. ]

[sakeplz]

[Jirou sees her and immediately she's getting a hug. Because this is Jirou and he's super affectionate.]

Eldaaaa! You're so pretty like I said!

[matchbreaker]

[ She expected that, and allows herself to be swept up in it, making to try to get her arms back around him, laughing as she does. Given the height difference and that she's not that heavy (actually for a person she's pretty light) she's easily swept off her feet ]

Me? You're the one practically radiant right now, Jirou!

[sakeplz]

Well the guy that I've loved since I was six proposed to me! I can't help it!

[He laughs and sets her down. Because hey she can walk! It would be silly to carry her!]

[matchbreaker]

[ Lucky- but yeah, she can. She can, but she does reach out and up a little to hold his hand so they might swing it a little, heading into the bar.

Of course he can't. It's a wonderful day. ]

I'd be a little alarmed if you could help it! No, that's fantastic! You've got to tell me about it, if there was some fanfare!

[sakeplz]

He took me on a date yesterday! Like the most magical princess date ever!

[He waits until they're sitting and have ordered a drink before continuing.]

So the day before he told me he was taking me out for Valentine's and showed me the suit he was wearing. I went out with FaiFai to go get something that would match right away.

[matchbreaker]

Oh, that's clever, making sure there's something good for the photos and the mood but not really blowing the whole show.

[ She'll nod approvingly at that, but also motions for him to go on. she is, actually, genuinely interested in hearing this out. And glad to see him on this one day back. ]

[sakeplz]

On Valentine's we took a limo to the hotel and of course he'd booked the best suite in there. Everything was laid out perfectly. Flowers and sparkling sake and music. The dinner was right there and we had one of the most delicious meals with dessert.

[He might as well have hearts in his eyes right now...]

[matchbreaker]

[ If that's literal color her surprise she's not heard about that but she's also up for... assuming it's a trick of the light...

Mostly trying to keep the listening smile on tho. ]

[sakeplz]

[There are sparkling sakura petals around them as he keeps talking. And these are no trick of the light. These are actually here falling around them.]

He asked me to dance and we talked about how much we meant to each other. Then he was asking me to marry him! Oh my gosh and he made sure to have a matching ring to mine!

[He shows her his ring. A black band with gold going through the middle. Simple but classy and yet so stylishly different. So very much like the person wearing it.]

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . Where is this coming from? She's trying hard to keep eye contact but her gaze does end up flickering around to try to find a source. Honestly, the woman doesn't bare in mind that she doesn't have her sunglasses on (a rarity these days) and thus the movement of her eyes is more obvious...

But okay!! The ring gives her something else to focus on ]

[matchbreaker]

Oh wow! That's a design I don't think I've seen before?

[ She asks by way of her eyes if she can touch Jirou's hands, but she does sort of assume she can too, so she does to get a look around the whole band of it. That's impressive. It's cool, actually. ]

[sakeplz]

Oh don't mind the flowers. Apparently I just do that now when I'm really, really happy and in good health. I think. At least that's how it seems to work so far!

[He laughs as he hands his hand over to her. Because obviously she wants to touch so he wants her to as well!]

But it's so pretty, right?

[matchbreaker]

Oh, so that's a new normal?

[ She giggles all the same actually, thinking back on... on James. Ah, he hadn't done a ring, had he? She didn't have a ring in her memories, but as she looks at Jirou's hand, thumbs against his ring...

It's sad that's her reference point. But it's still a pleasant feeling. ]
