True story. Once upon a time I was asked if I believe in gay marriage. I replied “I sure do. If I’ve gotta suffer, they’ve gotta suffer too.” Almost had coffee spit over me they were laughing so hard. (BTW I’ve been together with my best friend and most loving partner for 53 years now, Outside of a few misunderstandings, we’ve been very happy. <3 <3
You know it’s an *excellent* jewelry store if it has “Shine” in the name. I am not-so-secretly hoping the maybe-jewelry store is actually named “Shinies”.
Botan’s expression through this is interesting. The stony face. I think it means he’s not taking this lightly. It means there’s something he is giving serious thought to, maybe.
I guess a ring would be something he’s been thinking about and not apology flowers.
Man, I just realized- this page make absolutely no sense if you didn’t recognize the shape of the box and what it means. Which is not a criticism- it’s a fantastic non-verbal communication of his intent. But it’s interesting how so much of that depends on a shared cultural understanding.
I always wondered what happened to Abeille wearing a ring on her index finger, in chapter 1. The sales person is wearing her ring there. Botan wore a ring on his first finger on his first date with Clove.

In case anyone else was wondering about when the first date of Botan and Clove happened: It’s in chapter 11, page 32.

The middle 2 panels are my favorite picture of them. Clove’s expression says so much
