Ho-Oh feels that his question is very sudden, but it’s something he’s been meaning to talk to Kira about. After all, they had been together for some time now. He had recently walked past a jewelry shop in Goldenrod a few days ago, and saw the gorgeous rings on display. He hadn’t purchased anything, not yet, at least (he felt he needed to order a custom ring anyways to fit his boyfriend’s aesthetic), but the thought was on his mind. Ho-Oh wanted to bring up the question, and not create a potentially awkward or horrible situation later on. Better safe than sorry.
“I’ll admit, the thought has crossed my mind a lot lately. I wanted to bring it up and hear what you thought about it before I jump into anything... I know some people can have reservations about marriage and proposals.” Ho-Oh replied. “Marriage is a very human way of showing your desire to be with your partner forever, but I think a wedding could be fun. The idea of marriage used to... really scare me.” He admitted. “Only because I didn’t want to be arranged with someone I didn’t love or care about. It wouldn’t have been my choice. There were a few times where it nearly happened, but something changed at the last minute.” Samurai traditions back in the day were... just like that, and he had really hated that part the most.
“But if it’s with you? I wouldn’t mind at all. That’s why I asked, I was curious about how you felt.” There’s a pause. “... we might as well be engaged at this point anyways, honestly. I almost did pick up a ring from the shop, but none of them really screamed your aesthetic to me, so I thought it’d be better to custom order one at some point? I don’t really have anything to propose with right now....”
