Thankfully, no, but your eagerness to do so will be kept in mind for the future.
I need your assistance in regards to untangling my own thoughts. While I am much older than you are, you understand these things at a far deeper level than I perhaps ever could.
I did work as a licensed mental health counselor before, and Iβve found being able to bounce difficult thoughts off of someone receptive to it can be helpful. I will do my absolute best to help my dear friend.
The closest sensation I have to compare it to is the anger and sadness that burned inside me while I was a starving waif on the streets, but this time it felt somehow positive.
Ah, by "my recent memory", I was referring to its span. Not a particular memory within it. For as far back as I can remember, I cannot recall ever feeling such a thing.
However, love is simply out of the question. We are just friends.
[... Says the one staring at the ring they're wearing while they're dictating to their phone, of course.]
You can love someone you see as a friend, Purple. You can hold multiple feelings for someone. There is no singular formula when it comes to your heart.
Is it who I think it is? Or have you charmed someone else?
[There's a good, long pause here as they read Kagami's message... Look down at the ring on their hand... And then read his message again.]
It is likely exactly who you think it is, yes. Julie gifted me an enchanted ring, so that we may find each other if either of us are in danger, and I felt as though something suddenly grasped everything within my chest in a vice grip.
I do not know what neurotransmitters are. As for what I did, I followed through on the enchantment and shared my blood with her, as the magic calls for.
[And on top of all this - Kagami receives a pic! It's a nice looking gold band with a blood red jewel sitting right on top.]
Should I have kissed her? Would that have been the etiquette for such a situation?
She's courting me. I cannot believe she has been courting me, and I have been so blind to it. I am a Mage! I am meant to observe the unobservable! How could something so simple and earthly slip by me like this?
[He's free to imagine them with their face buried in their hands all balled up on their bed, because that's basically what's happening right now.]

That does sound alarming!
Have you ever experienced such a sensation before?

Hmm. That is quite the conundrum. All emotions you've mentioned sound pretty strong. If I may, Purple, you might be in love~

That's adorable! Can I see the ring? What did you do when she gave it to her? Thanked her, I hope? Did you kiss her?

[Not that Purple sees his reaction, but Kagami gasps and "oohs" at the picture.]
Purple, it's beautiful!
Generally you kiss the person you are engaged to, yes.

... I do not know what it means to be "engaged to" someone, either.

No. That can't be the case. Julie herself said we are friends.
She isn't courting me, it was simply a gift.
[Because they're TOTALLY the only one between the two of them that has any feelings. Surely.
Surely.]

From the sounds of it, your feelings for her are something beyond friendship too.
