[He's quick to return that, wrapping his arms around Wesker's back and pulling himself closer as he does.]
I'm so glad... I'm so pleased this is something you want too, I... I told myself I wouldn't even consider until we hit the year mark, but exchanging our heart stones like that made me wonder... I'm so happy, I don't know if I can ever put it into words.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought about it! The heart stone really is the most precious thing I've ever been given. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it!
Oh, don't worry about that! It's proof that you made it through all that, ja? Things were very difficult, but you always manage to find a way. It's a good reminder of that, I think.
[He sounds entirely confident about that much; he'll return the nuzzling after a moment, even if it's something he's probably always going to be awkward at.]
While I'm not opposed to doing this more traditionally eventually, I imagine that those serve the purpose even more than engagement rings would, at least for the time being.
Well, you seemed convinced that I would say no, so I can't exactly fault you for it...
[He doesn't seem bothered, though.]
I do want to discuss that in greater detail at some point in the future - why you thought that, and where my concerns actually are. Because there are aspects of it that concern me.
At the same time, I'm content to just enjoy this for now, and there isn't any rush.

[He'll nuzzle up against Jaeger a bit at that; he seems...relaxed, far moreso than he has in a long time.]
You've made me very happy tonight, you know.

[He seems awkward about it, but it's nice, all right...]

[He'll nuzzle Wesker again at that; he's really excited and can't really make himself sit any, but he's really happy, okay...]

That's what I was thinking! I wouldn't mind a ring, of course, but I can't imagine anything more precious than this.

Thank you. For asking me.

[He smiles though, because there really isn't any way to dampen his spirits right now.]
I'm really happy you agreed, so thank you.

But for now... For now I'm just so thrilled, I don't think I have words for how much this means to me! I love you so much, Albert!
