Suddenly a hand crept up Lizzy’s lovely neck, and then it clamped right over her mouth.
Hel would not be hearing anymore not yets, as her stare just bore right into the grim reaper. Oh. The valkyrie had this talk with Shun. He said there was no point in getting married right now. He said it would be good to wait. But with Mitsu asking him like this…what would he do?
Say no to Mitsu, Shun. Hel dared you.

"Mmmfffpt-" Lizzy flailed a bit at Hel's manhandling, but quickly calmed down, giving Shun a thumbs-up; say yes Shun, say yes.

Some others had come on around, and Shun was thinking it was about time for him to leave. He still didn't like crowds all too much, and he had paid his respects after all. Before he could step away, he noticed Mitsu coming up to join them. The Reaper's gaze softened as he saw her come by, watching as she added a lantern to the lake.
Taking her hand, he pulled her a little closer.
"Aishiteru mo.." he said in return before hearing her next set of words. Wait. Did he just... It was soft, but he could have sworn she just...
She did.
It threw Shun completely by surprise. And it took him a moment for it to really sink in what she had just asked him. His eye widened for a moment and he was rather stunned. Wait. For such a simple question, it was making his mind work in overdrive. Marriage... it wasn't something he even really planned on for awhile. This, he had told Hel. But now here it was, presented to him all of the sudden, and he didn't really know what to make of it right away. There was no reason for him to rush... and yet...
Hearing Lizzy's outburst, he snapped out of his thoughts and glanced over at her. Shaking his head to himself, his gaze drifted back towards Mitsu, staring right into her red eyes.
"Yes..." he said as he gripped her hand, "Only if you're willing to wait, though. For when the time is right."

Somewhere in the background, a distinct, annoyed groan of a valkyrie was heard, and she made sure to stay in the Grim's blind spot.

Followed by a disappointed sigh.

"Thank you," Malodore said to the ghoul that it did not know, bobbing its head politely. It was good to have allies, even ones it did not know well.
A commotion drew its attention, and it looked to one side to see Hel with one hand clamped firmly over Lizzy's mouth, and the Reaper boil it had seen earlier standing with a wolfish ghoul. It couldn't quite place their names, but the situation was enough to make it curious. The plague doctor sidled over to try and figure out what was going on. As it drew near, it extended its empathy and felt...
... It pulled its empathy back in and shook its head with a small smile. It was good to see - to feel - that love hadn't left the world, foolish though it may seem to admit. Even though it still didn't know the context, the emotions evoked were plain to it.

Speaking of valkyries, yet another one showed up just in time to hear her sister groan. Freya'd decided early on to show up to the picnic, but she hadn't known until recently what it was for. Still, it looked absolutely beautiful, and though everyone seemed to be whispering in hushed tones and keeping a somber mood, the entire decor made her think that more of a celebration had been hoped for.
So she walked down and stood near Hel and Lizzy, though she was a little worried to get too close - punching her sister at an event like this.. might not go over well. They seemed to be grappling and having some sort of important discussion, though.. Freya's curiosity got the better of her.
"What's goings on?" She whispered over to the two.

"Mitsu just proposed to Shun," She explained, not really turning around to look at who was there; her attention was on the pair, "But Shun said to wait, but he didn't exactly say no. He actually said yes, but later."

"But I thoughts.."
Freya turned from Lizzy, to the couple in question, and then back to Lizzy, and then to the couple in question..
... A dopey smile crossed her face, and she started jumping up and down, moving in circles, with her hands tight against her body as if that would stop her from squealing out loud.

“Bah! It is nothing to get excited about, sister.” Hel grumped. “Why wait!” She scowled. “Who knows what tomorrow will bring!”

Her smile grew initially. He had said yes and the way her eyes lit up made it known he had just made her the happiest ghoul in Amity at that very moment. If only it had lasted. His follow up phrase had her smile fading slightly, confusion starting to touch her features. Wait...for the right time?
"But...now feels right." Mitsu said softly. That's why she had said it at all.

Freya's jumping bean excitement stopped initially when she heard her sister's voice, and she tensed up, looking about ready to walk over and sock the ghoul in the face.
But she was right.. and they didn't know what tomorrow would bring. Suddenly, holding a grudge on her sister seemed like the worst idea in the world.
"Is true." Her hardened voice squeaked out. "There is no points teh waiting. But yeh can't makes people feel the same way yeh do. If Shun isn't ready, it woulds be terrible to marry such a wishy washy man. He must proves himself so he knows he is ready teh wed and bed."
She nodded her head sagely.

“YOU TELL HIM!” Hel cried in agreement with Mitsu, pumping a fist into the air. So not being subtle at all.
She then looked back at Freya, feeling like she may have dodge a bullet, or a fist to the face (which she really had coming), and gave a slight nod of her head. “I do not care so much for the bed part as much as the wed, okay?”

At this point, Shun was notably ignoring the peanut gallery. He would rather not have outside influences in on this decision.
"Are you sure? It is no small action, and our love does not change either way. We are still students, after all," he said softly. In part, he did not quite understand why marriage was so important. But, it was still something big. That he knew.
"Either way.. now, tomorrow, or sometime later, you will always have me," he added. Essentially, he would marry her, but he did not want her to be rash about it. Regardless of the date, he was hers. This, was what he was trying to convey.

The event to the side caught Jericho's attention, and it was something he hadn't quite expected. He quietly stood by Mal, watching the couple before glancing towards the plague doctor. The dragon caught its smile, and soon smiled in turn. Carefully, he reached out and placed a hand upon its shoulder as he stood by.
