[Rapunzel watches his reaction, listening to him basically saying yes. Confirming it. Of course she figured he would agree to the idea. It's just a whole other thing with doing it here, away from so many they would want to be able to celebrate with. He takes her hand and it reminds her of the first time they went out in that boat on the lake of Corona. This was smaller, much smaller with only their two lanterns, but even so. She glances up to him, unable to keep her own expression from softening with him as he speaks, as their fingers entwine.
She takes the offered ring with her other hand, reaching and carefully slipping it to his finger.]
I know this took longer. Longer than you'd have liked. But....we can make the most of things here. And of course back home they'll want a huge thing.
[Here they could have something more intimate and smaller in comparison. If they wanted.
Well. Given Rapunzel, it might not be as small, with her befriending most everyone, but still.]
( Eugene's eyes remain fixed on her actions, watching as the ring slides over his finger. His smile seems to widen at that image; It is not her finger that is decorated with an engagement ring, but the meaning is the same. Does it matter who's finger has the ring? Brown meets green when he hears his words, at which point he shakes his head slightly. )
I will not deny that it took long, but no 'more than it should'. I promised to wait for you. Wait for you to be ready. And that I have done, and would have done as long as necessary.
( Perhaps there are no lanterns in the sky illuminating them as in the first time they were both in a boat, but the droplets around him that reflect the moonlight give a more personal and intimate touch to that moment. He is aware, at that moment, that perhaps the rapid beating of his heart is not the only 'visible' sign of what he feels for her. But it seems that he doesn't care anymore, nor does the idea scare him. )
Are you sure you don't want to wait to get back to Corona? I don't mind celebrating it twice, or all that is needed. I'm just... You know, I want to be sure you are sure of this. Of everything.
You did promise. I just....there was a lot happening, back home with everything. But here, I got a bit of a break. time to think about it all and....I'm ready. I love you, Eugene. And I can't wait to celebrate that love with everyone. Here and back home.
[Rapunzel bites her lip as she watches the ring slide on, smiling as she then glances back up to him, her free hand at his cheek as she reassures him. Pascal climbing to her shoulder seeming satisfied now, if that smirk at his features is any indication. She knows he hasn't been here as long, but at the same time she does want to share this with her friends here. The friends she wouldn't get to, back home.]
( Eugene doesn’t know what to say, her words repeating over and over in his mind. He couldn't be happier. All those questions that arose at the time he was rejected -well, his proposal was rejected- now non-existent or already answered. All pride thrown overboard at the moment when tears threaten to escape. Happy and loving tears, but tears after all. He says nothing as he laughs at how he is reacting, leaning forward to rest his forehead against hers. The hand with the ring caressing her forearm. )
Let’s celebrate it as many times as you wish. We may not be married yet, but I’m all yours. I will do anything in my power to make you happy... And, to be honest, two weddings sounds pretty cool. How many people can say they married the same person twice?
I don't know how many. But I just figured....this way we could celebrate with all our friends. I kind of figure we can have something a little smaller and more relaxed here? At least. In comparison to what would be expected back home, you know.
[Because that is what will happen. That is what they will get, with Raps being royalty and all. So of course the wedding in Corona would be bigger, fancier and more formal and all. It's part of the reason why she wants this here too. To kind of prepare. To work herself up to it back home and all. Her expression softens, as she glances from the ring to seeing those tears, reaching with a hand to wipe at his cheek before they rest their foreheads together, his darker hair mingling with her bright blonde.]
You mean with all the attention we will get back home? I can live with it.
( As much as he enjoys being the center of all the attention -when it's for good reasons-, he isn't really serious and tries to make it obvious with his tone. Eugene understands what she means and, if there's something she needs, he will do anything to give it to her. And a more relaxing celebration sounds easy enough to do. He remains silent for a bit, just enjoying her presence and company. )
You know... ( His voice soft to not to startle her or something after his silence ) Since I'm the one wearing the ring, does that mean I'm the one planning it? Because, if so, let me tell you I have no idea of what to do.
[She bites her lip, brushing some hair back behind her ear as she glances to him. This was...a lot. But at the same time it has been a long time coming. They've waited long enough. And this way they could celebrate with friends here too. Even if the planning is still something they have to figure yet exactly.]
I already mentioned to Usagi. She can help us plan it together. I mean, I know there's the venue? And guest list and flowers and what to eat? But there's probably a lot I haven't thought of exactly, so. I figured I could at least ask her for help. Of course you can help too, Eugene. If you have ideas.
[Rapunzel has...decidedly less experience with weddings. Aside from crashing the one Eugene almost had with Stalyn that is.]
