eheh little brother but nah he only ever read the shonen or seinen stuff he just didn't like me getting tears all over his belongings plus i was supposed to be studying not that i was any good at it but you knew that part already
[As for the whole wedding thing...
A smarter person would see the very obvious deflection here, but as just stated Rin is not that.
He has thought about it, though. That's not incorrect. He's just never brought it up to Kohaku, concerned that she wouldn't be interested due to their origins of separate worlds and knowing that he hasn't been the only person in her life.
But he does love her a lot. A whole lot. More than he thought a half demon was even capable of.]
Rin-chan, you realize I can't side with you under those conditions.
[ Somewhere in the multiverse, several Yukios adjusted their glasses soundly.
But hey, don't call her out like that! There is no deflection happening here probably. ]
It's a two person affair, so the two of you would plan it together. It's entirely possible Kohaku-chan might not want to be a spring bride.
It's a popular concept back home is why I tend to reference it. Spring is the season of birth, rebirth, and new beginnings. You know how popular flowering trees are during this time of year. Many Japanese women favor Spring for such engagements, but you must also recall that we hail from a culture that has traditionally encouraged us to pick the fifth on our list of marriage considerations and Kohaku-chan is from a world different from ours, isn't she?
[ Ah, but this is probably too round-about for Rin. ]
People are different. We are different and this situation is different. What works for the two of you, that's what's important.
[ If she had had that in her advice repertoire and listened to it instead of asking JJ... ]
it wasnt a bad idea, but it would have to be really soon bc spring is almost over anyway
but thats also her birthday
i was talking more about the proposal part tho
IF she says yes itll absolutely be a two person thing theres no way im gonna plan the entire wedding itself without her
you did it your way and decided you didnt want a big ceremony so its a done deal
i dont want it to be like that i want her to make the choice on whether or not we have an actual ceremony for it that still means making the actual proposal before then
youre right that we're different but that's why im doing it my way
so
if your weird leaf hobo had been the one to pop the question how would YOU have wanted it done
It isn't like we couldn't have a ceremony if we wanted one. The ceremony itself isn't actually necessary to the process. Even if we had had a ceremony, it's not like it would've been big. There's the three of you and a small number of people I could invite and I'm Lightning-kun has a few friends, and then who? Our fuck buddies?
[ Which, as gifts and currency are traditionally in order, wouldn't be a bad move, not that they're lacking in Chroma and gifts... she doesn't want to think about gifts.
She doesn't really want to think about that last question either, especially given she's still seated in her leaf's lap. How she would have wanted it and the reality is -- ]
[ And she's answering because she chooses to answer, not because there's any sort of pressure applied. ]
They're breathtakingly beautiful, you know? The day Lewin-kun and I met was the first time he summoned sylphs for me and he was so casual about it. Even then, we weren't big about formalities between us.
I think, if there's anyone I really wouldn't have minded being present, it's those demons and I would've liked it to be like that. No big, winding speech or rented venue or airplane spelling things in the sky. Just me and Lewin and the sylphs at home or somewhere comfortable for us. After he turned my face up to him and placed the ring in my hand, he'd just casually go, "Hey, Set-chan. Will you marry me?"
Something like that would've been fine.
I probably would've thought he was kidding, but like I said, it's moot.
first off, fuck tradition its stupid anyway it should be about what you want not what a bunch of long dead assholes said HAD to be done because they were weird control freaks
second off, you're gross
third off...
thats actually pretty sweet even if it does involve lewin so thank you for telling me
Okay, mister. You need to find something to get yourself in the proper mindset before you touch the grills today, so get going. I'll talk to you later.

But you're welcome, I suppose.
And we'll see.
