Still.. [ But the obvious waving off and he gets the feeling if he tries to push the idea away again she's only gonna jab him with the umbrella next. ]
I can get you his ring size, as for color stone.. I.. was considering rose quartz. [ He had read how rose quartz enhances and strengthens all forms of love, after all. Those like self-love, parental love, platonic love, and romantic love. Though Sorey is his partner now, he is still his dearly childhood friend, his best friend, his family.. it only seemed fitting.
But, ] If you have any other ideas that's fine.

Tungsten Carbide? [ If because they don't require as much maintenance as other rings, which.. would be good for back home. Depending how long it.. He shakes his head a little from thought. ]
Or titanium.. [ Which works for more strength and durability after tungsten carbide against scratch, bend and dent. Either two work for their adventuring and exploring if Sorey chooses to wear it. ] If neither platinum works fine, I suppose. [ He's given it some clear thought. ]

[It's about to get worse.
He heads inside and closes the door gently behind him. Sorey gives her a sheepish look.]
Sorry if I'm interrupting. I just...thought that maybe you can give me a little advice.
[Edna is an earth seraph, and he definitely doesn't feel comfortable bugging Eizen about it, all things considered. So.]
I, uh...I was thinking about getting a ring for Mikleo.

[Well...the bubbles are a good sign. Right??]
Oh, well, I wanted to get it before the Flower Festival. I mean, that was when Mikleo and I started dating, so...I thought that'd be a good time to propose.
[He's blushing so hard, but he's DETERMINED.]

[Internal keysmash.]
B-but...! I can't ask you to do that! I mean, you look like you're busy making things for someone else.
[Please, Edna, he feels guilty asking something like that for free.]

[internal screeching intensifies
Sorey's such a child. He gives her the puppy dog look that he still insists on not having.]
Can I at least repay you somehow?

[He gives up.]
It's not like it has to be money or anything. I just...feel kinda bad. It looks like hard work.

Well...yeah, that's true.
[Alright. Alright. Sorey's giving up. It's pretty clear Edna's not changing her mind on this one.]
Um, then, what will you need to know about the ring? Just the metal, his ring size, and a stone?

Well, I'm not too sure about the metal. Titanium seems like it'd be good, considering our hobby. Platinum might be good, too, unless that's too soft? But I think those more silvery-looking metals will go better with Mikleo's look anyway.
[As for the stone....]
I was thinking an emerald for the stone, like the one in his circlet. Oh, and his ring size is—[He gives her the size for Mikleo's ring finger.]

[They're dumb and way too in sync with each other.]
Yep. [Sorey smiles brightly at her, honestly relieved.] Thanks, Edna. You're the best!

[ If Edna wasn't closer now, he might have end up shouting. Instead he just sputters and huffs out. ]
I am not clueless-!
I am not clueless-!
[ Besides... ]
As I said, I've been giving it some thought so of course I did some research before asking. I'd have to come with some idea in mind.

[Guess who's not a statue anymore? Yup. Took him long enough, didn't it? The first thing Eizen does, once he's come to terms with the situation, is get in touch with his dear little sister. She must be worried sick.
And yes, he removed every little thing that was placed on him during his 'absence'. It's all in a neat pile on the table behind him.]
I don't suppose you can explain why I've been used as a shelf of sorts?
