"Hey, this is Dr. Peter Venkman- I'm probably busy. If you're calling about something stupid done by a Dr. Egon Spengler or a Dr. Ray Stantz, I'm sorry for whatever they did. Leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can."

[Ray whines slightly at the mention of the accidental proposal.]

I still can't believe I slept through it. I would have given anything to surprise Egon with a marriage proposal! And you and Winston too!

[Venkman leans up, kissing Ray on the nose.]

Hush. You know leaving you out wasn't exactly the plan. Mostly 'cause there was no plan.

[Still, he can't say he regrets the way that whole ordeal went down. If Egon hadn't misinterpreted the whole situation, they might all still be beating around the marriage bush until- what, five years from now?

If they stay here that long.]

[ghoststanning]

I knooow, but I would have killed to surprise you guys with a proposal just to see you guys react to it. It's so rare that I can get you all flustered!

[neverstudied]

Well, if that's all you want, I can think of a few ways you can try to fluster me now...

[It all circles back to this, doesn't it.

... Especially when Venkman really doesn't want to keep thinking about how he's kind of a coward when it comes to his public image.]

[ghoststanning]

[If Ray finds out that he accidentally made Venkman self conscious about how he cares about his public image he is going to be SO APOLOGETIC.

But for now he just buries his face in the crook of Venkman's neck, and he laughs.]

That's not what I mean and you know it! I don't get to be romantic with you guys enough and I really wanna.

[It's fine. He's not really that concerned- after all, everything that mattered back home doesn't mean a damn thing here. Not the ghosts, not the constant struggling with the mayor and city and the cops and the EPA, and not societal judgement. And yes, it took him a long time to come to terms with that than the others, but it all worked out in the end. Hence the wedding rings.]

Who said ya can't be romantic with what I have in mind?
