Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Yay, Aims! That is awesome news. Look at you, living the dream!

I did a public proposal, but it was after we got the ring together and generally decided that I'd propose to him on Sadie Hawkins Day. Which I did! While officiating a pub quiz. (we knew practically everyone there.) It was fun.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

That's adorable, Nora. I think you hit all the high marks: the decision to marry was made together, public proposal, cute story to tell people later.

ita, take care of yourself.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Congrats, Aims!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's a good story! (You're telling it, aren't you?)

Oh yeah, it's a great story!

As to the other subject, if you don't have at least a general idea of the kind of proposal someone would want, you don't know them well enough to have any business marrying them.

Yeah, you know, I think that's the real thing. I don't believe in surprise engagements FOR ME. Of course there are a ton of people who want and love that kind of thing, and so they should have it! Because why do I care how other people arrange their lives, really?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think I just ran out of meds. I'm...I'm gonna cry again.
