[And then, realizing how saying that specific phrase in the context of what they're obliquely discussing sounds, he feels warmth heat his cheeks as well.
He does-- more than anything, now and forever, and he wants Day and the entire world to know it. He is Day's and Day is his and really, can there be anything more natural and straightforward than that? Phil certainly doesn't think so, not in this single perfect moment where there's nothing else in the world that matters besides them.
There isn't a moment's hesitation as he slides the ring onto his ring finger. And it fits perfectly, like it's meant to be there (because it is, surely), and Phil has to stop and let it all sink in, this promise that isn't really a promise but still somehow is anyway. The words and the officiality of it all don't matter when he has this tangible evidence that he's given a part of his heart away to Day for keeps. (A part of him hopes that some of the others will ask him about it when they see it so that he can proudly declare that he's spoken for.)
He holds up his hand to show Day how perfect the fit is, though he suspects Day may have had that planned all along. Magic has its uses, after all.]
