We've see it everywhere. Rings inside pokeballs, in cakes, in drinks, during baseball games and more. This meme pinpoints on some of the more interesting (and really adorable!) ways to tell someone you want to spend the restof your life with them!

Rules:

Comment with your character.
Someone responds, picking a number from 1 to 8 (or using the Random Number Generator), and plays out the specific propsal situation. (Note that the second person should be the one propsing, but it doesn't matter!)
Thread!
???
PROFIT.
So how are YOU going to propose to your darling dearest, after being together for so long? Well...
Scenarios:
1. Down on One Knee

Traditionally. Either in public or privately, one of you has taken the daring risk of becoming completely vulnerable in the midst of the other. You've got the perfect ring tucked into your coat jacket, and now all that's left is to see how the other reacts.

2. Cake

After a long, very expensive dinner, all that's left is dessert. In one bite in particular, you feel a hard...something hit your teeth. Upon investigating this strange object, you find a beautiful ring covered in cake in your hand. Look up, and you'll find your significant other looking at you with those adorable goo goo eyes you just love.

3. Fortune Cookie

It's your average night at the local Chinese resturant, nothing too special. And of course, every American knows that a good Chinese meal is never over until you eat the fortune cookie. But on this night, you crackopen your cookie, surprised to find there's a lovely little ring looking back at you. The slip of paper that goes with all fortune cookies reads a simple: "Will you marry me?" (in bed???)

4. During the Game

In the midst of the tired players taking their much earned break at half time, and the seemingly hundreds of birthday wishes flying past on the large screen, one message in particular will stand out to you. " ____ will you marry me?" And when you turn to your lover, heart thumping loudly, you'll see a huge ring presented before you.

5. In a Book

Just a quiet night together, playing some games, reading a few books. Upon locating a particular book, you crack it open, only to find that the pages have been hollowed out, leaving only a beautiful ring, and a delicate note saying "Will you marry me?" in its place.

6. During the Movies

A.k.a MysteryGuitarMan on Youtube's most adorable proposal. You've prepared a little scene at the beginning of the movies, and had the people in charge play in between movie previews. The lights go up, buddy, and now it's your time to shine!

7.One Balloon

Better known as "the most adorable scene in Super Junior's No One music video." You've got tons of balloons, and together you and your honey let them go fly into the sky. But why didn't you let the last one go? I'll say that ring attatched to the end has something to do with it!

8. Anything!

There is no doubt in my mind that I have missed out on some really cute proposals, so make your own up!

No ya don't. You just do. ... I think. [ Sonic was pulling Shadow into his body, looking down at him as he squished his cheek against his head, breaths finding their way down to his muzzle. Aaah, he could reach his lips from there, pull them in and do that thing where he kinda nibbles on it. Shadow seemed to like that, even if Sonic didn't get why. ]

I never ask why I like you. [ Not that he had to. Shadow kept up with him, didn't take anything from anyone, and no matter what, he never compromised his beliefs, even if it meant going against Sonic. He found that incredibly admirable, not to mention cool. ]

...

[ Yes, that was true. Sonic loved him unconditionally, and he returned it. Shadow simply got frustrated. Sometimes he did things he regretted, sometimes he said things he wanted to take back, sometimes he thought things he wished he didn't, but he was still Sonic, and he was still his.

He exhaled, solemnly nuzzling into him and lifting his snout to be at level with his dearest's own. A tongue swiped over peach, a tender sign of affection, perhaps with an undertone of apologetic behavior lying in there. He whispered so quietly, as if a single decibel higher would shatter glass walls and trap them beneath shards.
]

... I do. I... love you.

[ Sonic chuckled at his timidity, the pink of Shadow's tongue wiping off along Sonic's cheeks. It all wound up in nervous laughter and bouncing ears unsure of what to do with the elation rising to the top of his head. They could've popped right off and flown away, leaving Sonic deaf to Shadow's words but all-knowing to his feelings nevertheless. ]

I know ya do. Just joshin' ya. [ How humble. Regardless, he had his hand to the other's cheek, pushing their muzzles together without really kissing him. He was alluding to it, but, ah. He wasn't very good at starting that sort of thing. Excellent, however, at taking over.

Mm. Shadow had a good face on. Sonic was starting to laugh so much that he had to pull Shadow down into the bed an lay with him before he got thrown back out the window for it. It did settle his amusement down, leaving him only to pose a fireside kind of smile: warm, comforting, and passionate. All for him.

[ Shadow didn't even bother to put up a struggle as he was yanked down, body slamming into plush mattress and leaving them both to just exist together. The most he gave was a grunt and a sigh directly afterward, Sonic's mirth making it impossible to be disturbed by his movement.

Sonic...

The way he was so happy all of the time, how contagious it was, how it made him smile somehow, just like he was right now...

There really was something special about this one.

He initiated, not letting him go without retaliation for bringing them so tantalizingly close. He pecked his lips with his own once, twice, three times. It was succinct, yet substantial all at the same time, accompanied by none other than a very rare Shadow purr, low and heavy and deep.
]

Sonic... Sonic-- prrrrrrrr...

[ His tail slammed again and again into the mattress. He was unable to help himself as he cuddled up close, his hips wiggling to the involuntary movements behind him. Yes, this was a pretty damn good day, and just, god, he loved him, he loved Sonic, his Sonic, his. ]
bluestreaker: (l-love..)

I should call penance. I don't care if we're outside of Smash.

[personal profile] bluestreaker 2012-09-04 01:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahaha! [ Man, that sound erupting from the depth of Shadow's chest always got Sonic rolling. Even when it would come to an auditory crawl, it had a rich reverberation in the back of Sonic's mind. Shadow's kisses echoed innocence in a world where he was anything but. Sonic wasn't much better, but here they were. Together.

It got him thinking...
]

I could do this forever if you keep that up. [ Big words for a guy who had the attention span of a -

Hey, chest fluff. Sonic pawed his fingers through it.

[personal profile] obfuskate 2012-09-04 01:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I have to quest-- nnng...!

[ Shadow gasped charmingly, agreeably pushing his chest forward as he felt lithe digits combing through a most sensitive area. Even Maria never got to lay her fingers on that area. He felt odd when she did it, really. Nowadays, he wished he could go back and let her, just to enjoy her presence, her touch, her sisterly, saccharine coos...

Ah, but it wasn't about Maria now. It was about him, his Sonic, a gorgeous bluebell in full bloom before him. His hands slipped upward to cup at his darling's cheeks, pressing hot fingertips into the small layer of fuzz along them, slicking them with smooth strokes. He felt his own face begin to flush, the feeling of his body being lavished with attention making him reel.

Even just these little moments made him feel like his world was spinning, the very definition of his life being turned around just to point at him.

He moaned, richly and thickly, pressing his nose into his fawn colors and rubbing. His body moved, huddling up into blue and meeting, blue fur to black, flesh-to-flesh, creating some very enjoyable friction.
]

H-Hhhn, yes...
bluestreaker: (well I guess)

THIS IS GETTING MORE DIFFICULT. Even with my idea...

[personal profile] bluestreaker 2012-09-05 08:01 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... We aren't questioning, remember? [ Seeing Shadow beginning to burn, Sonic withdrew his digits from that vulnerable patch, such an obvious target and yet a mystery to all but him. Sonic's tail was thumping into the mattress, purrs starting to massage his exhales, but he chose to sit up again. ]

Y'think we can really do somethin' like this forever? [ And have a left field question from the hypocrite. ]

[ Oh, he did know how to be sweet when he wanted to be.

Shadow keened softly, rising along with him and remaining firmly against his toned runner's body. One hand laced through Sonic's own, fingers intertwining and holding on for dear life. His eyes fluttered closed, the look on his face reflecting his emotions to a T: being absolutely, definitely, undeniably head-over-heels in love.
]

Forever... Yes...
bluestreaker: (so in love)

Oh Shadow. You know this romance never lasts long.

[personal profile] bluestreaker 2012-09-06 07:30 am (UTC)(link)
[ Sonic's eyes fell to their laced fingers while thinking of them together, woven together by happenstance, as many of his adventures seem to be. The beginning said nothing of the journey that lead to this moment and sometimes even Sonic had a difficult time believing that they were here in this now.

But the now was now and it was what it was; nothing to fight against but everything to fight for. He suspected this was really love. He'd never said it and if he did, it was muttered and rushed, but yeah...

He loved Shadow in a way far beyond comprehension, romance, and battle.

Frankly, it was too over the top for him. He liked to keep it simple, so he would. Sort of.
]

Okay, okay. [ With a moment to grin for, Sonic rose from the bed and let Shadow go. ] Wait here a sec. [ It didn't take him very long to start nosing around Shadow's room, and it didn't take him equally as long to find what he was looking for. He'd seen where Shadow kept them before when he actually had them off.

Sonic returned to the bed bearing his inhibitor rings, though only the ones for the wrist. He returned to sit before him as they had been, intimate brushings of dark furs against light, and Sonic's mitts where all over Shadow's hand he had been holding earlier.
]

I can't say for sure what'll happen, so I don't like to make promises like this, but... [ Then he fell silent, unsure of what to add to make his intentions obvious. This wasn't his thing at all, but his heart was driving him! ]
obfuskate: sᴏᴜʀᴄᴇ: ᴏғғɪᴄɪᴀʟ ᴀʀᴛ. (✘ there's no time for games!)

THIS LOVE WILL BE THEIR DOWNFALL >8I

[personal profile] obfuskate 2012-09-06 02:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Shadow couldn't possibly comprehend what he felt for him beyond love.

He loved Maria. She was everything to him, his family, his sister by everything but blood, his driving force... yet he never could love her the way he did Sonic. Likewise, he couldn't love him the way he did Maria. The division of familial and romantic love was a jagged and puzzling fissure with boundaries he still didn't understand, not on an emotional level. He doubted he ever would figure it out either.

Yet despite the differences, he loved them both with equal fire in his heart to protect and cherish them both. He'd failed Maria in that regard. He regretted not doing more with her, for her, and he couldn't save her from a gruesome death. He lost his chance with her. He still remembered sinking in his pod amidst the stars, tears dripping into bloodied hands, his blood, her blood...

He was not going to let anything happen to Sonic, not like with her. He was going to defend him with his last breath, if need be.

He wanted him to be around... forever.




Shadow waited, waited as told, yet with a twinge in his heart that told him to stop him. Why was he rummaging through his stuff exactly? That was completely invasive. Once he saw the familiar gleam of those inhibitors, however, he relaxed. He knew he could trust Sonic not to do anything too reckless with those. He knew how much he needed them...

Those words, however...

That wasn't what he expected.

He gave a soft huff, fingertips grazing over peach, a rare glimmer of ease radiating in his own eyes. He looked to the blue hedgehog with a look that could only be described as uncertainty, not knowing what to expect. With this one, he never did know what to expect, really. He was always so spontaneous...

A promise, though? He'd sooner expect him jumping off of a cliff with him, hand-in-hand, hoping for a safe landing. He arched a single brow, keeping otherwise still.
]

That is... unlike you.

[ He leaned in a little, his musk, scents of earth and pine, dancing off of azure, making his heart flutter within him. ]

Just tell me already.

[ He did prefer to be straightforward, after all, rather than dancing around an issue or a subject. ]
bluestreaker: (w-woah)

Be-all, end-all.

[personal profile] bluestreaker 2012-09-07 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
I'm gettin' there! [ Sonic sighed, taking Shadow's demand as an insult to his speedy nature. The spines along his shoulder blades were bristling out in every direction, rising as he grew tense with where his heart was guiding his lips.

But he still lacked the words, so Sonic did what he did best: he took action. He captured Shadow's wrist with his own inhibitor ring, carefully sliding it along his dark fur and positioning it just so, though not that it made much a difference in terms of how the lights from the window spun like whirlwinds to an eye-piercing shine off the precious metal.

He sat with the other ring against his lap, the still of silence thick and suffocating, but for once, Sonic was willing to drown in it.

This was just fine.

[ Ha, oh, Sonic. Did Shadow hurt his poor little fee-fees? He didn't care right now, really, his mind solely on- on whatever Sonic was doing then and doing now.

That ring...

He drew his wrist back just a small amount, enough that if the other 'hog still had his hand in his own, he'd still be able to hold on. His eyes locked onto the band along his wrist, his mind swirling with many a thought, yet one remained prominent and held them all together:

What was the purpose of this?

This was so frustrating, he thought with brows knitting together tightly. The awkward tension permeated the room, leaving it damp with unease that they both felt, yet he couldn't place exactly what or why it was.

He just...

He hated not understanding.
]

... Well? [ He lifted his gaze back to Sonic in that moment, a purely befuddled, yet curious expression shining forth. ]
bluestreaker: (you shittin me)

[personal profile] bluestreaker 2012-09-07 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ You try this, Shadow! Jeez! It wasn't like this was something Sonic did everyday. He barely knew how to convey his feelings on this emotional level, let alone make such an important life decision - such a grand vow. ]

How do you not get it? [ He picked the other inhibitor ring up from his lap and presented it to Shadow as if he had never seen it before. ]

Ring.

[ He held his hand up. ]

Wrist. I put a ring on it. [ NO THAT'S NOT HOW THAT WORKS. ]

[ um

Shadow stared at him with the most astonished face he could muster. To Sonic, it might seem like it dawned upon him, the concept of the entire thing smacking him right in the face...

... but then his nose crinkled. Nope, he was amazed by his grand stupidity. That's what it was.

You are not making any bit of sense.

[personal profile] bluestreaker 2012-09-07 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, c'mon!

[ Sonic held his own wrist up, yanking his glove off and tossing it to the mattress. ]

You get a ring...

[ And he began to slip the ring onto his own wrist. ]

And I get a-- HNGH.

[ Oh, right.

He suddenly drooped forward, ears and lungs and heart just yanked down by an unseen force, breath hitched and eyes wide.

Yeah. It... He forgot it did that.

Maybe this wasn't the best example of what he was going for.

]

And you have... a problem.

[ stating the obvious for good measure okay GOSH

Shadow leaned over and went to take the ring off of his arm, unwilling to let him just sit here and suffer. He at least wanted to know what he was getting at before he proceeded to do stupid things.
]

Either get to the point or stop wasting my time.

[ Sonic felt relief swim over his brain cells as the ring left his body, his muscles a thousand times lighter and everything kind of tingled.

When he got his head back in order, Sonic snatched the ring from Shadow, looked at it, then -

BOP.

He threw it so it bounced off his forehead, a deadpan expression to accompany his assault. That was easier than confessing anything further. That was an awful bust.

[ oh.

Shadow bore no hesitation as his hand snapped out, grabbing roughly for Sonic's left shoulder and digging claws into it. His sneer was pronounced, such a little thing provoking him due to the fact that it was completely uncalled for.
]

What will I have to do to get you to tell me?

[ He grabbed the ring and nestled it in his palm, a growl slicking past his throat. He was more than willing to put that back should he not be honest with him. That was pretty important here! ]
bluestreaker: (scuuuuuuuse you?)

HALP

[personal profile] bluestreaker 2012-09-08 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
[ It wasn't so much that Sonic wasn't being honest but more along the lines that he legitimately had no way of explaining himself in a way he found acceptable. He tried with some BLATANTLY OBVIOUS CHARADES, SHADOW, but that failed him, clearly.

Shadow's grip on him would be abusive in any other scenario with any other people, but this had become about the norm for them. Sonic was ready to opt into shoving him off, but he would attempt to provide patience.
]

I already told ya. Rings. Rings.

[ He is not saying the big words, Shadow, but maybe if you played Scrabble or Pictionary or something, he could elaborate further.

Or maybe they could fight so bad he could try to ring his neck. EXTREME COMMITMENT.
]

[personal profile] obfuskate 2012-09-08 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
And I told you, I do not see what promise this entails--...





[ Oh.

Shadow hitches a breath, the reality visibly dawning on him that... that type of promise is a possibility. Suddenly, it is like the weight of his inhibitors are bringing him down, when that isn't the case at all. It's the idea of it crashing down on him, knocking the wind out of him.

Sonic always is associated with the wind, after all. Of course he would sweep him off of his feet like a sudden gale.

He...

He just isn't sure what to say.

No, he knows what he wants to say, but it's a matter of how. He's speechless. He's not even sure if this really is what Sonic is getting at, but it makes his heart slam into his ribcage so hard that he's sure it's going to ache.

He knows. He knows.

He just... wants to be certain first, he decides, eyes slipping down to the ring nestled comfortably around his wrist. He couldn't take his eyes off of it now, the meaning behind it becoming more and more clear.
]

You...

You mean...






... marriage...


[ His eyes fling up to Sonic's own, not about to display to him his needs, his love until he is absolutely sure. He isn't about to jump the gun yet. He wants some confirmation. ]
bluestreaker: (indigestion oof)

Then, perhaps... eternal commitment...?

[ Something like that. He didn't want it to sound like some sappy, traditional walking-down-the-aisle ordeal. That isn't like either of them.

The concept of remaining bound together in the sense of romance, however, taking the world on and staying as free as they were before, just with a tighter red string around them...

Shadow couldn't say no.
]
bluestreaker: (heh heh!!)

Obviously.

[personal profile] bluestreaker 2012-09-08 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ And his nerves began to settle, at least to a point where his figure was less tense and one gloved and ungloved hand found their way to Shadow's knees. He put his weight onto them as if the entire conversation was finally coming down upon him. Spontaneity was Sonic's favorite thing whether he realized it or not, but even this impulse caught him off guard.

He was, however, just following his heart, as a blue hedgehog tends to do.
]

Yeah, that sounds alright. [ Still some major romantic vocabulary there, but he wasn't about to lie.

That soft muzzle exposed a grin that had been hiding for some time now.

[ He felt like he was about to choke on his own air, the pressure on his chest overwhelming, as if someone was sitting on him. Shadow was so unsure of how to word what he wanted to convey, his heart going fucking insane and his cheeks heating in a feeling he never thought he'd be a part of.

He...

He had a second chance to protect someone for life, someone he loved and cherished, much like his Maria...

He wasn't about to relinquish that chance.
]

I... would like that...

[ Shadow inhaled shakily, unable to hold back the small tug upward his lips gave. It was difficult to notice if one didn't know him, but for Sonic, it was likely going to be clear as day. His hands dropped down, cupping over the blue hedgehog's own in an inviting union. ]

... I would like to stay by your side, Sonic.
bluestreaker: (check it)

[personal profile] bluestreaker 2012-09-08 01:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oh, could that grin get any wider, any brighter? Could it dance in memories for years to come and be remembered long after he's gone? Likely. It was handsome and satisfied within the moment, supplemented by a nervous heart throbbing, vibrating, shaking on its valves and ready to drop into their laps. It was only when Sonic started to relocate to his knees and move both set of hands to Shadow's chest to shove him back did he look ready for more. ]

There's one thing...

[ Every exhale shivered with his purrs. ]

You've gotta wear the dress.

[ What a PRICK. STOP RUINING EVERYTHING. ]
