#ranni turns purple cause blue+red=purple

[maranull]

We already know how Ranni does it (indirectly) but how do the rest of the ladies and Blaidd ask you to marry them?

We do know how Ranni proposes, but I switch the xReader stuff to a modern AU and I feel like sending your partner hunting for your ring at your mom's library, then having them find you naked and bloodied at a murder scene is probably a tad too much for a modern setting. So I'm doing Ranni as well is what I'm saying.

Ranni: She's been planning it for at least a year. The plan involves Blaidd constantly starting conversations about her family's traditions and such. Poor guy has to explain the Carian family laws like five times minimum. At which point you sort of figure out that something is going on but she takes six more months to do anything about it. Anyway, one night you find a small ornate box at your nightstand and Ranni doing her absolutely worst sleeping impression. At this point this is not a surprise and you soon figure it out (she also had Blaidd do another presentation literally the same day), so you play along. She turns purple when you put the ring on her finger but keeps pretending (badly) to be asleep. She holds out until you enter the bed, at which point she looses it and turns to hug you tightly. The next morning you wake up with a whole ass sword at the feet of the bed.

Melina: It's spontaneous. Like, you're talking and she just blurs out: "Let's marry." After saying yes and the hugs and soft kisses and all that jazz, she grabs you by the hand and haves you hunt for flowers and tall grass with her. She takes two blades of grass and makes/braids them into a circle, then ties a small flower on it. Here's your ring. She keeps doing that every week to replace the wilting and browning of the flower and grass. You try and make one yourself, and you don't think it's that bad, but she starts laughing and laughing. So much in fact, that you figure out she's laughing not about your attempt, but just out of pure joy. You do get some small wedding rings eventually, but the grass/flower ring is something she does forever.

Malenia: Somehow has managed to get you in a outdoors chrysanthemum farm for a date. There, she points you at a unique flower. It's petals are half white, half red. While you look and lean in to smell it, she kneels behind you. The ring is ornate with patterns of branches on it's golden surface. A butterfly looks towards the inner edge and she asks you to put it on your right index. She has one made for her, with the butterfly looking your way and its hugs yours when putting your fingers next to each other. Later you find that you have photos of the moment, courtesy of a certain someones brother. He was hiding in the field for a couple hours.

~

Marika: She has tickets for your favourite band's concert. The show is great and fun, but you catch her staring at you more than usual. Before the final song, the lead singer dedicates the song to you two by name. And at the climax of the song, they throw a small box towards you two and Marika grabs it with a short jump. After which she gets on her knees and proposes amidst the chaos and hollering of the arena. (yes she knew you'd say yes, you had talked about marriage before, she wouldn't to the scummy thing some asshats do with public proposals)

~

Blaidd: Does it at the anniversary of -insert year of choice- of you being together. You redo your first date, almost moment by moment, except that during the end, during which he asks the question.

Thank you for the ask, anon! And sorry about Blaidd's being short!
