This… this is so sweet… I just can't…
I'll organize the party! :D
PPI
You two just…
I have a few things I need to take care of, but I'll be with you as soon as possible.
Three weeks, huh? Makes sense :D
I better brush up on some spells. @DarkSparkle, @TrueSparkle, @Simile: you up for some wedding magic?
LightSparkle
Umm. Hello, all.
I know this is a bit untypical of me, and it's possible that I end up embarrassing myself, but I think I have reached a point in my life that I really must do it, so here goes…
Before I do what I'm about to do let me say something. You all know how different I am in real life. I worry way too much, I panic easily, I tend to have trouble standing up to people at times. The aethernet helped me create an entirely new persona, being what I always wanted to be. In a way it's thanks to her, and your support, that I gradually changed for the better…and that has given me the courage to ask the following:
@CEOWitch: will you marry me?
Brush
O! M! G!
@Brush: never in a thousand years did I expect this! I'm crying! I'm literally craving right now! I've know you idiot ever since we started the MC meetings (well, earlier, but that doesn't count) and I always wondered if you'd reach that point. All the time I thought it would be some stallion who would get tired and ask you.
Like, this is one of the most romantic and geeky things I've seen ever! @CEOWitch, no pressure,but remember you are being watched by millions shippers who support and adore you, so better not disappoint :P
I can see the stories pouring in… and I don't care! Little Brush is finally settling in!
RRBB
@Brush: <3 I'm so happy for you, sweet wings. There was a time that I wanted you to do the same for me, but now I see how unready we both were.
You deserve this, and I'm glad you reached a point at which you went out of your comfort zone to do it. Please take care of CEO well, and be as confident as you are now. If you need any help where to held the wedding, let me know.
@CEOWitch: congrats. I'm sure you know what you’re getting :) I'll PM you about it.
MasterOfThisAstra
@Brush: Finally! :D And now millions of Nightlings are glued to their tech, refreshing the site every two seconds. :P
LyraHands
@Brush: you’re crazy! And no, I won't go buck a tree! Have you any idea what you've done? There's no going back now (which I suppose is the point :P). I've been waiting for this to happen for months now! Years, decades even!
Mare, this is so surreal that I never thought it would happen. On the site, no less! Now depending on the response we’ll either get spammed with marriage proposals, or nopony will talk about it ever again.
MixaMax
@MixaMax: Aren't you a ray of sunshine? :/
RRBB
@Brush: I'm do happy for you! I know exactly what you're going through and envy your courage. This couldn't happen to a better couple. I love you both and don't even have enough words to describe what I'm feeling right now.
Both Tech and I wish you the very best in your years to come. :)
I know you probably have made arrangements, but if you need any assistance with your wedding dress, let me know? I expect the boss will want to get involved herself, though.

What Max was trying to say us that she's very happy that one of her best friends has made such an eventful step.
Max means well, really…she's just an idiot twenty-five hours per day.
Jade
Brush gets all the stallions… *happy tears of envy*
Nah, I saw this coming a thousand miles away *grin*. Still envious, though. :P
@Brush: We’ll talk about it after work. :)
AwesomePony
@LightSparkle: not fair!
PPI
@Brush: he won't be able to answer. The captain sent his *yay* on patrol so he won't be back till evening.
Knowing him he'll probably brush it off as something normal. I can see him going to the barracks, taking a look at all of us and saying “So? We've been hanging fir months.”
Fleetfoot
@Fleetfoot, @Brush: that sounds so him. :)
I'm so happy for you two. I was considering pulling off something if the sort myself, but couldn't find the courage. Well done, Brush :) Fortune favors the brave :)
Luna
@Brush: Since MightyDragon is off to deal with a crisis in the Empire, I'm the one to congratulate you :D
I can tell you from now that he, SaltyHuman, and InItForTheShipping will be furious they missed it, but we all know what their usual reactions will be :) Hop is poking me nonstop to congratulate you for her, do I am.
Sadly I must get back to my presentation in a few minutes. Breaks are short in academia:(
Love you both!
CodeFilly
Woohoo! Free muffins for everyone! :D
I always knew you had it in you, @Brush :)
DaBoss
Update! You'll never believe what happened!
Apparently, Blueblood saw the post and sent a scroll to my boss. The captain then, went supersonic to fetch CEOWitch and “drag him to write yes” :D
@Brush: expect him in an hour at most. Less if he puts some effort into it ;)
Fleetfoot
You got to be *yay* kidding me! :D
Argh! I knew we should have finished with the repairs earlier. @Brush, expect a wing of supportive Griffins to swoop your way in a few hours :)
Proposing on a site. Why didn't I ever think of that? Yo, @GLGJ: you cool?
Feather
Girls, you're making me blush so hard right now! It's difficult as it is. And I know CEOWitch will get back to me when he could.
That's why I asked here. Too nervous to do it in person. O:)
Also, buck you all! :P
Brush
@Brush: I will! <3
CEOWitch
Lovely stuff. Wonderful to see Brush recover from the Mota fiasco so completely and triumphantly. Though I do have to wonder who Luna would propose to, and how the tachyon twins are replying before the post. After all, if non-Pinkies can do it, anyone can, at least in theory.

You're not the only one. I thought that crisis in the Empire might rear its ugly head at the end.
This was a great chapter and I like that Brush has finally proposed to CEOWitch. I wonder what the reactions will be of those that missed it like InItForTheShipping. Also the post from DaBoss confirms that it's Derpy.

You and me both! Several posts, but none from CEO - Why hasn't he answered? More posts, nothing from CEO - WHat if he says "No"? Finally - CEO SAID YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*heavy sigh - mixed with relief and contentment* Aaghhhhhhhhh!

Am I such a monster in your eyes? At the risk of not believing me, Brush was always supposed to go through a breakup and end up married.
Also, I stated this is a happy story! Just has some real life issues presented ;) As you've seen something that's resolved has remained such. Potentially there's just one thing that might make most of you sad, but that's all... maybe...
D'awwwwww!
Heh, and all I can think of is "I'm a year older than you", and that was to another mare when RRBB was still a filly!
*squeals with manly glee!!!!
Yes BRUSH! Whoo hoooo!!!
So sweet! I think my favorite part was Blueblood being complete shipping trash and pulling rank to order a stallion to say yes.

He can be devious when he wants to :)

If you remember ages ago PPI predicted it will end well :P

Would you expect any different from RRBB? :)
