Ajax couldn't help but chuckle again as he thought of the name. That will definitely be interesting. "Certainly." He agreed with a nod, walking in after her to just stand on the inside of the doorframe like he usually did. "Life-saver, angel, and miracle worker eh? I still think the last part is more incredible." He teased with a grin. But really, no joke, it was incredible to HIM that he could man up, get over his underlaying fear, find someone he actually loved, make them actually care about him, slowly grow in the relationship, have it turn into girlfriend, then eventually fiance... thinking back, where he was now was so far away than where he was when he met Mercy it was just mind-boggling. "You should have a business card that says that. *Call this number in the middle of nowhere and you shall get your life saved and possibly meet the most introverted man of all time*." Ajax put his hands in the air like he was spelling it out, then laughed. "It would have to be a giant business card." He joked.

"That's why it's last. It's the best and most impressive, obviously." Mercy joked, grinning at him as he thought. She made her way lightly over to him, admiring her new ring for a few moments as she moved. She leaned against him happily, her palms resting gently on his abdomen as she looked up at him. "That's definitely going on there. And, you know, I could just... change the size of the font, but giant business cards work too.

Ajax grinned at her words, knowing they were somewhat true which made it even funnier. "Obviously. Definitely." He added, furrowing his eyebrows at her last comment. "Change the font size? Boring. Giant business cards would be 100 times better." He paused, then chuckled at a thought. "Only normal people change the font size to fit- and you are getting married to me which means you aren't normal." Ajax finished with a teasing tone, his eyes twinkling.

"Of course, what was I thinking? Normal is definitely not okay if I'm going to be married to the eccentric man I love." Mercy joked, gently taking his hand. "Anyway, can we go to sleep? I'm exhausted, and I don't know if today could end better... at all." She said lightly, tilting her head up at him.

"I'm glad you got your head back on straight." Ajax feigned relief, though afterward he smiled teasingly. "I was starting to think you'd never ask. The bed is still there for you, if you want, but I'm striking for the couch." He joked at first, then walked over to sit on the rather comfortable couch- he had warmed up to it. Slowly.

Mercy tilted her head at him in curiousity. "Seriously? The couch? You wanna spend your first night as an engaged man on a couch? And you're fine with me sleeping in the other room?" She scoffed, shaking her head. "I understand we're special, but I kind of figured we could be normal in that aspect." She huffed, walking over to sit beside him anyway.

Ajax actually had completely forgotten and not predicted that reaction at all, so he had the grace to look a little sheepish. "My goodness, may the good lord spare me for my dire mistake. I will sleep anywhere you like and be perfectly fine." He lifted his hands in surrender, snorting a little at her last comment. "Normal? Phsaw, never." Ajax smiled a little. Honestly, he was too tired to really care, but somehow still so awake. His brain was going at 100 miles per hour without moving. The result? Burning a lot of brain cells.

Mercy rolled her eyes playfully at him, pressing a kiss to his cheek and grabbing his hand to interlock their fingers. "I'm glad you see the error of your ways." She teased, smiling at him. "Oh, of course not." She chuckled, shaking her head and standing to tug him toward the bedroom.

Ajax couldn't help but think of how this whole thing was going to turn out. He wasn't really all the way kidding when he said it'd never be normal- Mercy could be quite normal, in a good way, but he failed to. Another thought cropped up in his mind... ring. That was how weddings work. They both got rings. Including him. A ring. +fudge...+ Ajax thought slowly, so he dragged his mind off that subject and onto focusing on Mercy. At her words he snorted a little. Somehow it was always him making the errors... at that thought, and what she said, he chuckled and stood, as to not get his fingers ripped off. "I'm coming I'm coming, no need to hurry." Ajax teased, following her.

Mercy offered him a grin, doing a little giddy twirl before she collapsed on the bed, snuggling under the covers quietly. After, she patted the space beside her and looked up at him in an affectionate way. She was so excited to be married- to get that experience with someone she loved. It was something She thought She would never get, after she died.
