That's adorable, Nora. I think you hit all the high marks: the decision to marry was made together, public proposal, cute story to tell people later.
ita, take care of yourself.
I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's a good story! (You're telling it, aren't you?)
Oh yeah, it's a great story!
As to the other subject, if you don't have at least a general idea of the kind of proposal someone would want, you don't know them well enough to have any business marrying them.
Yeah, you know, I think that's the real thing. I don't believe in surprise engagements FOR ME. Of course there are a ton of people who want and love that kind of thing, and so they should have it! Because why do I care how other people arrange their lives, really?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think I just ran out of meds. I'm...I'm gonna cry again.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Congratulations, Aims! Great news, and well deserved! Also, big YAY on how much the kids and other teachers obviously love you.
Hec proposed to me more or less by email, by way of a transcript of a crucial IM conversation he'd just had with another Buffista. And then it took me three weeks to give him an answer.
Nora's proposal is really just about the best ever.
