Paul and I have been wearing tungsten carbide rings for everyday for a few months now. They're heavy, but feel very nice on.
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

I just took a closer look at the picture of your ring juliana, and it looks like we have the same engraving. It's the celtic knot with the dragon detail.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Hee!! Yep, that's the one. I chose it because not only did we get married in the year of the Dragon, M's sister Dorothy (the one who passed away) was born in the year of the Dragon. And a virtually indestructible ring is a very nice thing to have when one works with one's hands.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
is tungsten carbide, and is heavy like woah.There is a "ball & chain"/symbolic/whatever" reference in there somewhere. But it's Monday, and I was working until midnight last night, so words aren't as forthcoming as they normally might be.
With that, I add to the congratulations and the fabulous pictures!!! Whee! So happy for you!!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
OMG, I want to get married now. I know I can get *one* tungsten carbide ring, but they look so cute in pairs.

The status is NOT quo.
Aw, I kind of love that we have the same rings. I couldn't get that one in a size that would work on my wee hand, alas, so my friend Crystal designed a modified version that we had engraved on a smaller white gold band. Mine isn't indestructible, so I'll probably have to replace it at some point.

Those rings are so pretty! Glad your dad was happy shiny perfection, Juliana!
Sumi, I am so glad you went to the hospital when you did. I love that you could update us all so much so that we wouldn't worry, too!
