In light of recent events, I'm postponing my proposed celebration on December 21st to the 27th.

Since this is no longer the last palindromic date of the year, the nature of the party will also change. Coincidentally, Yukio and Rin Okumura's birthdate falls on that day, so it's only prudent to call it a birthday party.

[Ladies and gentlemen, the most unsubtle suggestion to go cheer Rin up ever.

This announcement completed, all while in the impeccable, symmetrically arranged confines of Kid's room, the young grim reaper changes the subject, holding up a small box, and in his other hand appears to be the (gently wrinkled) precisely folded square of the wrapping paper that previously covered it.]

The second order of business has to do with this gift I discovered earlier.

[It's a gorgeously-crafted silver ring with an absolutely stunning (and rare) blue diamond. Kid looks none too pleased to be in possession of it, however.]

I'm afraid I must decline your proposal publicly, since you couldn't see fit to present your request in person.

[Guess who was too busy carefully preserving the wrapping paper as he unwrapped the present to notice the tag? THIS GUY.]

If you're willing to go this far, then offer me a matching set. Besides! [There's a loud thumping, as Kid is apparently stomping his foot in outrage.] You have the order all wrong!! I'm not the one who receives a ring!

[There is no verbal response. Only Maka slapping her hands to her face.

Then slapping her forehead several times with one hand.]

Why aren't you the one who receives a ring, if I may ask?

[Aliens are weird.]

[Maka isn't the only one face palming, Kid.

But Rin has different reasons for it.]

Kid, I told you guys not to... if Yukio isn't around then what's the point?!

[Seriously, man. You're breaking his heart here.

And he's not even going to bring up the ring issue. Maka has that covered.]

Proposal? Are they trying to propose something with the ring?

[Blame her lack of knowledge on being locked away from society for ten years.

... well, she does have some understanding. But there are also different worlds here, so maybe rings mean different things in different places.]

You know, usually most people wouldn't think that a ring appearing in their homes means a marriage proposal.

Unless~ they were expecting one. Are you expecting someone to want to marry you sometime soon?

A few things. What do you mean, no longer the last palindromic date? Why the 27th? Why do you think a single ring in a package from, if other examples hold true, "Sandy Claws", would be a marriage proposal? Why do you have issue with being the one to receive the ring?

But unless this is different than expected, no one is asking you to marry them, moron. A bunch of people have been getting things they don't want for no good reason.

Who the hell would propose anonymously if they weren't trolling you?
