Our Engagement

"Laura, make an investigation check..."

Saturday nights are for our weekly D&D sessions with friends, as has been the case for over 2 years. Laura went to visit Sid in Charleston for a weekend in November 2020, and had no idea what Sid had been planning for her. As the four hour online session was wrapping up, Sid asked Laura to make an investigation check. Totally normal, happens all the time in-game, so Laura thought the session was still going on and that her character was supposed to be looking for something. She got a 17 (luckily, who knows what would've happened if she got a 1...), and asked what her character found. "You see 4 boxes in front of you, one of them looks like a treasure chest." "Oooh, where?? In the tent ahead?" "No, in front of you." "On the ground?" "No. Laura, actually in front of you. On the table." "....what?" Turns out, Sid had prepared a surpise in real life, but was so good at keeping it a secret that Laura was still under the impression that all this was happening in the game and not really happening. As he said, 4 boxes were on the table and one of them looked like a treasure chest. "Should I check it for traps??" At this point, Sid took pity on her and told Laura to just open it. Inside sat a ring box, and the most beautiful diamond ring. A few seconds of confusion, then realization hit. That was the easiest and fastest answer Laura's ever given in her life. It couldn't have been planned any better, the proposal was perfect with our friends there to see it, and all tied around our favorite game - Dungeons & Dragons. #CriticalHitch
