Can you write Whizzer and Marvin getting promise rings with Whizzer seeming disinterested in the whole thing but when Marvin suggests he can take them back Whizzer gets defensive and is all 'shut up I love it' or 'if you take this ring back I'm taking /you/ back'?
When Marvin opens his palm to reveal the circle of gold, Whizzer laughs.
Which - okay. That’s a little…discouraging, to say the least.
“What is that?” Whizzer demands, looking endlessly amused, “Marv, Sweetie, you know I’m not knocked up, right? We don’t need a shotgun wedding.”
“It’s a promise ring.” Marvin explains, his voice growing curt at the flippant mockery on his boyfriend’s face, “I thought it would be - you know, romantic.”
Whizzer doesn’t even seem to get the significance of this whole ordeal as he just grabs from Marvin’s hand and places it on his finger, all the while snorting, “A promise ring? What are you promising then - not to throttle me when I burn the macaroni and cheese?”
No, it’s my endless love and devotion to you.
“If you don’t want it, then give it back,” Marvin says, his voice way sharper than intended, “It’s not a big deal.”
He reaches for the ring but Whizzer recoils back, the amusement slipping from his face.
“Fuck off. You already promised your love for me.” Whizzer says, strangely defensive all of a sudden, though there’s feigned humor in his serious voice as if he’s still trying to play it down, “There’s no take-backs for that shit.”
Marvin rolls his eyes, “Whizzer, you don’t have to pretend for me - “ But then he catches sight of the way that Whizzer is twisting the band around his finge as he silently marvels at the way that the fluorescent lighting catches the gold and makes it glow.
Marvin cuts himself off abruptly.
“Thanks, Marvin.” Whizzer says after a pause, his voice strangled with sincerity and awkwardness, “Really.”
Marvin doesn’t call him out on it, nor does he try to make a joke. Instead, he wraps an arm around Whizzer and places a kiss on his hairline.
