Adia listens with her elbows propped on the table, chin in her hands. From what Amelia has said about her parents in the past, they had a marriage based on love as opposed to convenience, and this story fits nicely into her vision of them. "Oh, Amelia," she sighs. "What a thoughtful gift. That's a wonderful tradition."
Caspar nods slightly in agreement. A ledger does not have quite the same oomph as a ring, in his opinion, but he has to agree that it's a loving gesture regardless. "I suppose I proposed ages ago when I built our shared wardrobe," he gently teases Adia, who laughs softly at the comparison. "Or a new centrifuge, maybe? Our lab could use one of those."
"No, I think the ring is just fine," she replies with a giggle. "Is gift-giving important across the board, Amelia? I know how much thought you put into yours."
As for Hunter, she looks pleasantly surprised that Amelia knows him. "Yes, he does. It means a lot that he made it for us. How do you know him, Amelia?"
Pizza! Adia feels herself salivate a little at the prospect and swallows in embarrassment. She must be hungrier than she thought. "Those sound good to me. Caspar, are you okay with that?"
"Sure. I'm only going to have a slice or two." He smirks. "Don't tell Princess."
