Evyr laughed when she read this response on Aaron’s OKCupid profile to “What’s an answer to a question you get often?” This made her message him to find out the full story of the mysterious white patch in his beard, and luckily he stayed and chatted for a bit.

Aaron indulged Evyr’s fancy tastes when she suggested a dinner cruise for the 3rd date. After a near mishap with locating the reservation, the two had a wonderful time on the channel, leading to their first kiss on the top deck amongst the Tampa city lights…

Evyr didn’t see it coming. A simple Christmas gift exchange left her speechless as Aaron gave her a blue shell necklace, a replica of the Mermaid’s Pendant from Stardew Valley; this pendant is used to propose to another character in the game. Just three weeks shy of their 5th dating anniversary, Aaron got the right combo of surprise and sentiment to trigger the wedding event!
