They got on a trolley which took them through the city. New Archangel was an old city and had many old but beautiful buildings. After a ride in the trolley they reached the Waterfront. It was lined with booths, shops, games, places to eat. There were several rides as well. The ferris wheel was a large one and went clockwise in a circle. It had lights on it for when it got dark
"What do you want to do first, Bianca?" he asked as he held her hand.

They got on a trolley which took them through the city. New Archangel was an old city and had many old but beautiful buildings. After a ride in the trolley they reached the Waterfront. It was lined with booths, shops, games, places to eat. There were several rides as well. The ferris wheel was a large one and went clockwise in a circle. It had lights on it for when it got dark
"What do you want to do first, Bianca?" he asked as he held her hand.

''The ferris wheel would be good for us to do first. Also, do they have any eating contests here?'' Bianca asked, squeezing Yuri's hand.

"You really like to eat, don't you?" Yuri asked with a smile. They walked down the boardwalk. The ferris wheel was huge. They stepped up to it and quickly got in as it took them up in a arch. The view was nice as the ferris wheel turned "Isn't it a great view?"

"You really like to eat, don't you?" Yuri asked with a smile. They walked down the boardwalk. The ferris wheel was huge. They stepped up to it and quickly got in as it took them up in a arch. The view was nice as the ferris wheel turned "Isn't it a great view?"

''I don't know. It is complex, I suppose.'' Bianca replied to Yuri. ''It is an awesome view. Next, I want to go on an eating contest, then a drinking (not to mean alcohol) contest. Then, I want to do everything here.''

Yuri smiled "There's plenty to do here. especially on the waterfront" he replied. His hand gently held hers. She was beautiful in every way 'How does she stay thin?' he briefly thought but quickly dismissed such thoughts and concentrated on her beauty and personality "It will be fun" he softly replied.

''I want to do everything we can, Yuri.'' Bianca said. ''I am so glad Giovanni told me about this. I'm going to thank him for telling me about you!'' Bianca said happily.

Yuri smiled "You'll have to thank him for me as well. I'm just as glad that he told you" he replied. The sun was shining and the clouds moved lazily through the sky. People walked up and down the streets. The ferris wheel continued moving as more people got on.

''Yuri, let's get off the wheel now. I want to go to a contest and do all the things here.'' Bianca said nicely.

"Sure" Yuri replied and they got off of the ferris wheel. Two couple walked down the boardwalk, observing all the stands and games. To his amazement there was a chicken wing eating contest infront of one of the bars.
"You think you can handle it?" he asked as they walked up. The contest hadn't begun yet.

''I am ready for anything.'' Bianca said. Bianca took a spot in the contest and said ''When we begin, I will win this.'' She wanted Yuri to watch her.

Yuri stood there in moderate disbelief. he became somewhat unaffected by her eating but it still puzzled him. The plates of chicken wings came out. The other contestants looked like they could eat a truck of wings a piece.
"Good luck, Bianca!" Yuri called out over the crowd. Some of the contestants whispered about her, they ridiculed her. They had no idea what they're getting themselves into.

''Thanks, Yuri!'' she said back to him. When the contest was about to start, Bianca uttered some words and they began. Bianca ate like a roadrunner, as soon as the others were on their 4th or 5th wings, she was already finished. The contestants looked in amazement, in shock that this girl beat them all. Bianca then said ''I hope there's a drinking contest. I need a great drink to wash that all down.''

Yuri saw all the guys with their jaws hitting the ground. He was not as suprised as he used to be. Bianca was an amazing woman, full of suprises "Congratulations, Bianca. You showed those guys" he said with a smile. "A drink doesn't sound bad" they continued walking down the boardwalk

"Bianca, I've never seen a woman do the things you can do. You're somethin' else" he commented.

''Is there a prize to the contest?'' Bianca asked. ''Thanks for congratulating me, Yuri.'' Bianca said, giving him a kiss. ''Is there a drinking contest? I could use some liquids.'' Bianca stated to Yuri.

''Thanks for saying that compliment. Some other people have said that about me before.'' Bianca commented.

"Next meal is free" Yuri replied "You are amazing. I can't even do all that. I don't think there's drinking contests, unless we went to one of the fraternities. How about we just sit somewhere, have a drink, and enjoy the view?" Yuri asked as he kissed her back.

''A drinking contest does not need to have alcoholic drinks, I can have non-alcoholic ones.'' Bianca said. ''Sitting somewhere with a drink, with you, would be excellent. Let's go.'' Bianca said, walking with him. It seemed everything was going well for them.

"Like I said, there aren't any drinking contests" Yuri replied. The couple walked down the sidewalk and came across a cafe with tables and chairs in the open, overlooking the beach and other things. "This place looks good" he said and they took a seat. The waitress came by and asked if they wanted anything to drink, he ordered a bottle of beer. Yuri wasn't much of a drinker, but he had a few from time to time.
"What would you like, ma'am?" the waitress asked Bianca.

''I'll have a Kulikovan drink, please.'' Bianca said nicely. The waitress left and Bianca said to Yuri ''Yuri, it's nice to relax, watching everything go by or whatever it is. Also, would you like to see Thetania sometime?'' Bianca said. She knew her family would like to meet Yuri.

Yuri relaxed his muscles and settled into the chair "Yes, I'd love to visit Thetania sometime and possibly meet your family." he replied. The sun continued to shine and people walked by. The tide gently rose and fell against the sands. Sea gulls flew overhead. He was having an unbelieveable time with Bianca.

''Perhaps in a few days we can go to Thetania.'' Bianca said, relaxing as well. ''Maybe we'll get married. Only the Heavens know.'' Bianca thought to herself. ''Yuri, it is a nice day today. If it was raining, it would still be nice, with you by my side.''

OOC-Perhaps you would like to fast forward some time, letting them know each other a lot more and stuff.

OCC: Good idea

Several days passed as the couple spent every waking moment with one another. New Archangel became their playground. They became closer and closer, Yuri and Bianca felt a sincere love for one another. Yuri felt like the luckiest guy in the world to have found Bianca. She was amazing and he didn't want to lose her.

The couple walked down the street one day. "Bianca, it's been an amazing time. I've never felt happier. being around you akes me feel great, I love you" he said and kissed her. they had just seen a movie and talked about it a bit. He wondered if they were going to go to Thetania someday.

OOC-Thanks.

''It has been amazing for me too. Being around you makes me feel great. I love you as well.'' Bianca said, kissing him back.

Bianca then said ''Yuri, would you like to go to Thetania? I can get us there. I am sure you would like it.'' Bianca wanted to spend more time with Yuri.

OOC-Curious but would Yuri want to marry Bianca in the future?

OCC: Most likely

IC:

Yuri smiled, "I'd love to go with Thetania and spend more time with you." he replied as they continued walking "Meeting your family will be great". Yuri thought about the future and what it holds...

OOC-Later on, he can propose to her.

Bianca and Yuri went back to Yuri's home in the capital. Bianca contacted her brother, Giovanni and told him she would be coming with Yuri. They packed up and Bianca went with Yuri on a first class plane.

In Thetania, Joseph, Giovanni and the Monet family waited to greet the couple. Bianca would show Yuri her homeland and hoped a better time would be had in Thetania.

Yuri sat on the plane next to Bianca. He wasn't fond of flying at all. The problem wasn't bebilitating, just an annoyance. He turned to Bianca
"I can't wait to meet your family" he replied with a smile.

A day before they departed when Bianca was asleep, Yuri traveled to a jewlers. He looked at the cases and inquired as to which rings were good.
"Found that special someone?" the lady asked.
"I believe so" he responded, his eyes still stuck on the displays.
"She'll like this on" the lady took out a ring. Yuri examined it closely.
"I'll take it" he said with a smile...

The plane landed and Bianca and Yuri were greeted by an offical with a limo. The limo took them to Joseph's Palace. ''Yuri, you'll like my family, though my father's daughter is sick, she has HIV/AIDS and possibly other things, thanks to the Civil War, my brother Giovanni told me of it.'' Bianca said as they were in the limo.

When they got to the Palace, Giovanni was waiting there. As the limo left and some men took the luggage, Bianca ran and embraced Giovanni. ''Sister Bianca, how are you? How was your visit to Kulikovo?'' Giovanni said before looking to Yuri. ''You must be Yuri Andropov. It is a pleasure to meet you.'' Giovanni said.

Bianca planned to show Yuri her family and the Palace before they went around the city.

Yuri smiled and extended his hand "It's a pleasure to finally meat you, Giovanni" Yuri replied with a smile. He was glad to be out of the plane and back on the ground.

''Please, come in to the palace.'' Giovanni said. They all went to one of the rooms and they sat down in chairs. After some talking, Joseph came down stairs, behind him was a little girl. ''Greetings, Joseph.'' Giovanni said. ''Yuri, I would like you to meet the leader of Thetania, Joseph Monet and his daughter, Michelle.'' Bianca said. Joseph looked at Yuri and said ''You must be Yuri, it is nice to meet you. Please, make yourself at home, dinner will be soon and you may meet more of the Monet Family.'' Michelle greeted Yuri as well.

''Would you like to talk, Yuri?'' Bianca asked with the three Monet's still there.

Yuri straightened himself up "It is an honor to meet you, sir" he said then looked to Michelle "And it's an honor to meet you as well" he gave a smile then turned to Bianca and nodded.

Yuri straightened himself up "It is an honor to meet you, sir" he said then looked to Michelle "And it's an honor to meet you as well" he gave a smile then turned to Bianca and nodded.

Michelle smiled at Yuri and Joseph said ''Yuri, how are things with my sister? Have things been good?'' Giovanni had left to check on things and Bianca was telling Michelle about her time in Kulikovo.

Yuri smiled "Things have been going great. I love every moment I sepnd with her. We're both very happy" Yuri replied. It was nice to meet Bianca's family. He hoped they would like him. The ring was in one of his bags.

Bianca agreed with Yuri's statement and Joseph said ''That is excellent to hear, Yuri. I am happy for my sister.'' Giovanni came back and said ''Dinner is ready. My fiance helped make it.'' Joseph told Bianca that Giovanni had gotten engaged with a woman while she was in Kulikovo. She was happy for him. They went to the dining room, one of many and Giovanni said ''Yuri, we are having one of those family reunions, would you like to attend? It would give you a chance to meet our family and relatives.''

Dinner was served and some time later, a woman who was very beautiful came and kissed Giovanni. ''Yuri, this is my fiance, Marie. She's French and speaks it fluently.'' Giovanni said. Marie looked at Yuri and greeted him politely.

"Congratulations, to the both of you. It is a pleasure to meet you, Marie" Yuri said with an air of politeness "I would love to attend your family reunion. I'm sure the rest of your family is just as wonderful" Yuri smiled to Bianca, his eyes told her that he was enjoying himself and being with her.

As they ate, Bianca said ''I am sure they, like us will think you are wonderful too. Marie and Giovanni thanked Yuri for their congratulations for their engagement. Bianca looked at Yuri and smiled back at him.

After dinner, Giovanni said that the family reunion would be later tonight. Bianca then took Yuri by themselves to a room filled with posters, pictures and other things.

''This is the room where we keep all the stuff from the Great Hell or civil war.'' Bianca said, looking at photos. ''It would be like your revolution against the Fascists.'' Bianca stated. She showed him several photos and pictures, telling him about it. ''Yuri, I could tell you about it if you want to.'' Bianca said, thinking that she could tell him about the Great Hell since he told her about the Anti-Fascist Revolution in Kulikovo.

Yuri departed with Bianca up to her room. He saw the posters and photos surround the walls. Some of the picture were a bit disturbing but he mearly gazed at them all. "If it doesn't bring you too much heartache to tell it, then yes" he replied siftly. He thought as he looked at the pictures and posters that his nation's revolution was nothing compared to theirs.

OOC-Just to tell you, this is not Bianca's room. It is just a room filled with things from the GH.

''Time ago, our nation was led by the STO. The STO was truly barbaric, hunting down Christians, Jews, Muslims and all faiths. They killed children, forcing little girls into brothels and they took control of the Catholic Church (not the majority church of Thetania) from the Pope (not the Catholic Church in general, just the Church in Thetania). They killed my brother (Joseph Monet)'s wife and kidnapped his daughters, Michelle and Emily. Emily was killed by a horrific method (by beheading) and Michelle was rescued by Thetanian-International Forces. Cardinal John Harrington was killed and hung, first being defrocked. Thetania holds remembrance days in honor of the Great Hell. Michelle is sick because of the STO, they tortured her and abused her, along with her late sister, in all sorts of ways and methods. During the time, I was supporting my brother, Joseph who fought against the STO. If I upset you or have made you uncomfortable or anything, I am sorry for doing so.'' Bianca said before taking him out of the room, trying to hold back tears.

After this, Bianca relaxed herself and took Yuri to her room and said happily ''This is my room, I don't live here myself but Joseph gave me a comfortable room.'' Her room was large and spetacular to see.

OCC: Sorry about that

Yuri looked down. He felt sorrowful for her and her family. They and the nation suffered so much. Far more than he did during the revolution. At first he didn't know what to say. "...All that's in the past now. You and this nation have a tomorrow to look forward to", he saw the tears being held back and held her.

Bianca then led him to her room, it was indeed a spectacle "Much nicer than mine" he noted.

Bianca smiled and wiped possible tears, saying ''Thank you for saying that Yuri, our nation is better than ever now.''

''Your room was nice too.'' Bianca said in reply to Yuri's statement.

Later on in the night, the Monet Family Reunion started and many people came. Everyone was talking, eating and having fun. Michelle played with several of the other children, Joseph discussed the State of the Nation with some, Giovanni was with Marie and Bianca was with Yuri, upstairs.

Yuri was given a suit to wear for the occasion. Bianca came out of her room and showed Yuri her dress. ''How do I look, Yuri?'' Bianca asked, wanting to know what he thought. ''You'll like the reunion, Yuri. Everyone will like to see you.'' Bianca told him.

OOC-That's ok. It was only a mixup. Apology accepted.

Yuri never liked to dress up. It felt to restricting and formal, which is something he isn't. He adjusted his tie as Bianca came into view. He stopped and gazed at her. The dress looked perfect and so did she. "You look...Gorgeous" he finally managed to utter. her beauty captivated her.

It was summer and Yuri Andropov was depressed. His girlfriend broke off their two year relationship after she found another man. He had several bad relationships before, but this one was a disaster. All around he saw happy couples and found himself wanting to be in love again. He worked at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. And lives in the capital, Jonensberg. A friend at work noticed his problems and sent out a letter to help him out a bit.

hey, dipshit, the ladies would probably also like to know your cock size.

''You look handsome.'' Bianca said, blushing at his compliment. When they got downstairs, an old man came to Bianca and said ''Bianca, how nice to meet you!'' The two embraced and the old man turned to Yuri and said ''You must be Yuri Andropov. Giovanni's told me about you. I'm Alexander, one of Bianca's relatives. It is nice to meet you.'' Alexander led the two to the celebrations and showed them around. Some of the girls giggled when they saw Yuri and Bianca, thinking Yuri was cute and handsome.

Members of the Monet Family greeted Yuri and Bianca as Alexander showed them around. Alexander then said ''Well, I'll be going now. I'll let you too do stuff.''

Bianca said ''Yuri, would you like something to eat? There's a lot of food and drink around. Including a chocolate fountain.''

After they got some food, Bianca noticed her parents at one of the tables. She with Yuri, went to them and they said ''Bianca, how nice to see you! And who's this young man your with?'' Bianca's father joked around saying ''You've made a boyfriend I see? I knew you would.'' Bianca's dad teased her as a child about having a boyfriend.

Yuri smiled at her "To not tell you would be a sin". They walked around. Yuri was a little overwhelmed by all the people who kept coming up to him and shaking his hand. He kept a smile plastered on his face. Sweat began to appear which he quickly wiped away.
"I am a bit thirsty. I just hope you'll leave some food for the rest of us" he joked as they sat at the table. Yuri drank a glass of water. The coolness felt good.

OOC-This is a post to include Bianca's parents. Sorry if I repeated things, like from the quoted post.

After getting food, Bianca heard some people calling for her. She looked to see her parents at a table. ''Yuri, look, its my parents!'' Bianca said joyfully. Bianca and Yuri sat at the table and Bianca's parents said ''Bianca, how nice to see you! And who's this young man your with?'' Bianca's father joked around saying ''You've made a boyfriend I see? I knew you would.'' Bianca's dad teased her as a child about having a boyfriend.

Yuri composed himself as Bianca talked to her parents. He smiled and extended his hand "It's a plearue to meet you, Mr. & Mrs.Monet"

''It is nice to meet you too. I am Mrs. Violet Monet and I am Mr. Maximillian Monet.'' Bianca's parents introduced themselves.

''How are you and Bianca doing?'' Violet asked Yuri politely. ''I am sure you both had a good time in Kulikovo. Joseph told us about it.'' Maximillian said.

Yuri smiled "We're doing just great. And very happy" he replied. Her parents seemed very nice as did the rest of her family.

Yuri smiled "We're doing just great. And very happy" he replied. Her parents seemed very nice as did the rest of her family.

Maximillian looked at Yuri and joked ''Maybe their Romeo and Juliet?'' before Violet bumped him.

''Yuri, tell us about yourself. We would like to know more about the man who is meeting our daughter.'' Maximillian said.

Yuri gave a laugh and straightened up "I come from a working class family. I am a veteran of our nations revolution where I was wounded. Now I work for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs where I hope to someday become a diplomat" Yuri replied, he didn't know what else to say. Her family seemed pretty out-going.
'The apple doesn'e fall far from the tree' he thought.

''You have a fascinating life.'' Violet remarked, smiling at Yuri. Later, a little girl came to Violet and Maximillian and talked to them, before talking to Bianca. ''Yuri, this is one of my cousins, Emily.'' Bianca said. Emily looked at Yuri and said ''It is nice to meet you, sir.''

Bianca's family, the Monets was a very large family.

Yuri bent down "It's a pleasure and honor to meet you as well, Violet" he replied and smiled. he noticed their large family. His family wasn't that numerous but he liked it that way.

''My name's Emily, not Violet. But thanks for saying what you did.'' Emily giggled. ''You made a mistake there.'' Bianca said nicely. Emily then noticed one of the boys and said ''See you, later. I'm going to play with some of the others now.'' Emily left and went with the boy.

''Yuri, how's your time so far? Having a good time?'' Bianca asked.

OCC: Sorry about the mistake, that was a typo. I didn't mean to post that name.

Yuri stood back up and smiled "I'm having a great time. You certainly have a nice and numerous family. And of course you make it even better" he replied as he stretched his back a little.

Yuri stood back up and smiled "I'm having a great time. You certainly have a nice and numerous family. And of course you make it even better" he replied as he stretched his back a little.

Bianca smiled and kissed Yuri, in front of her parents. ''Are you two boyfriend and girlfriend?'' Violet asked Yuri. Bianca smiled and waved to another family member before saying ''I'm sure Yuri can tell you.''

Yuri looked to Violet "Yes we are, Violet" he responded in a happy tone.
'Hopefull we'll be more than that' he thought.

Yuri looked to Violet "Yes we are, Violet" he responded in a happy tone.
'Hopefull we'll be more than that' he thought.

Maximillian smiled and said ''I knew Bianca would get one soon.'' Violet and Maximillian were happy and full of joy and gladness when they heard the news. Bianca held Yuri and said ''Yuri, would you like to walk around and such? The dance should be in some time.''

"Yep, Bianca reeled me in" he joked "A walk sounds great" he replied to Bianca. He liked her family but there were just too many people for him, and he just wanted to get into the open and get some air.

Bianca took Yuri to the gardens and to one of the fountains. They sat together, watching the moonlight. ''Yuri, want to kiss under the moon and its light?'' Bianca said.

Yuri and Bianca stepped into the gardens. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes for a moment, he calmed him down. They sat there, he smiled and kissed her lovingly under the moon.
"I love you, Bianca" he said. The fountain continued to trickle as they sat there.

Yuri felt the ring in his coat pocket. The jewler said that it was a good one. he thought of if and when he should propose. he loved Bianca deeply and wanted to be with her. But he was still hesitant. He had a nasty and bitter break-up with his last girlfriend only a month or so prior to his meeting Bianca.
'What should I do?' he asked himself.

Bianca jumped on Yuri and began returning his kisses. ''I love you too, Yuri. With all my heart.'' Bianca said before restraining herself, thinking Yuri would be freaked out or something. ''Yuri, I hear the music. Let's go to the dance floor.'' Bianca said.

OCC: What do you think?

Yuri was a bit suprised when she jumped on him. But, she wasn't killing him so it was just fine with him. He sat back up, a little red "The dance?" he asked "i'm not a very good dancer, I have lead feet"

''I'm sorry for jumping on you. I was over my head or something.'' Bianca said, blushing. She took him to the dance floor and said ''You can dance as you can. Try your best.'' Then she began to dance, hoping he could try his best, she would respect him nonetheless.

OCC: What do you think?

About the marriage proposal? Perhaps some time later. How about we fast forward again later and then he proposes?

"It's alright, Bianca" he replied "At least you weren't trying to murder me, so it's fine" They walked back to the dance and onto the dancefloor.

"I hope you have steel toed heels, Bianca" Yuri joked nervously. "I can slow dance, but anything more than that is beyond me" he said.

About the marriage proposal? Perhaps some time later. How about we fast forward again later and then he proposes?

OCC: Okay, sounds fine

Bianca held Yuri and they began dancing to the movie, at their own pace. ''Yuri, you are a great dancer.'' Bianca said, her head on his shoulder.

OOC-Perhaps after the dancing, we could fast forward?

"You're a good liar" he joked. 'But thanks, you dance much better than me" They continued to dance, he held her as they danced.

OCC: Fast forward sounds fine after the dance.

''I did not lie, I meant it.'' Bianca said, knowing it was a joke. Bianca smiled and said ''Thanks for complimenting my dancing.'' After the dancing, they continued having an awesome night.

OOC-Fast forward in your reply, they are still in Thetania.

OCC: A few days then?

Several days passed as the couple enjoyed their each others company. Yuri enjoyed and loved every moment with Bianca. His love for her grew. Thetania was just as interesting as Kulikovo as they went around the city. As his affections grew, his hesitancy weakened as he looked to the future and its' possibilities. They were walking around.
"Bianca, this has been an amazing time I've had. Thetania is great. Your family is ncie. And you're beautiful" he said "What shall we do now?" he asked as they continued along their way.

OOC-I guess that is ok. You can propose when you want to.

Bianca smiled and held his hand tightly. She took him to some mosaics and explained them, they detailed Thetanian history. She then took him to a statue of a man in high stature. ''This is Thetanius, founder of Thetania. He united the Thetanian tribes and ruled as the first ruler of unified Thetania.'' Bianca explained. She also thought of the future as well.

Yuri looked at the statues and mosaics in amazement "You're nation has a long history and an interesting one" Yuri replied as he held her hand. Yuri enjoyed history alot and all of what they were doing interested him.

Bianca smiled and said ''Yours does too, Yuri.'' She explained parts of history to Yuri and showed him statues and mosaics and other things. Bianca then showed him a mosaic of the War of Thetanius (Thetanius fought to unify Thetania).

After a while, Bianca and Yuri sat together outside. Here was a good time for him to propose if he wanted to. Bianca relaxed herself, enjoying the brisk cool day.

Yuri sat there and examined the time he'd spent with Bianca. She was like no other woman he evr met. Everything about her interested hom. Every moment he spent with her felt remarkable. They ahd many good laughs and loving moments with one another. His hesitancy was almost gone. At first he felt like it was going to fast, it was the usual jitters. he looked back on their time. Evvery word they said, everything they did, every feeling he felt for her. His heart beat quickened. he became nervous. A bead of sweat rolled down the side of his head. His feelings for her were lsincere. he loved her. He trembled a bit. The ring was in his coat pocket. He closed his eyes, trying to clear his mind. he then took three deep breaths and he calmed down. Now or never.

He shakily stood to his feet, his hand held hers which guided her up to her feet. His hand moved to his coat pocket as he nervously knelt onto the concrete. The young man toom out the ring case and held her hand. His eyes looked softly and lovingly to her.
"Bianca, I love you and want to spend the rest of my life with you...will you marry me?" he asked.

Bianca's eyes watered with tears and she cried in joy ''Yuri, yes! Yes, I'll marry you!'' She hugged him and kissed him, crying in joy. ''Let's go to my family and tell them of our engagement!'' Bianca said. Bianca had accepted marrying Yuri Andropov.

A huge feeling of relief came over Yuri with Bianca's words. he slipped the ring on her finger and stood up. He smiled, embraced her closely and kissed her lovingly. He felt something that he'd never felt before...he felt complete.
"I love you so much" Yuri said as she hled him tightly. A tear rolled down his cheek. A tear of happiness.

Bianca looked at the ring and said ''What a beautiful ring, Yuri. Thank you very much.'' She held him tightly and kissed him lovingly as well. After a while, she took Yuri to Joseph's Palace and Bianca called Michelle, Giovanni and Joseph together in a hyper active mood.

''Bianca, what is it that you wish to tell us?'' Giovanni asked. ''Tell them, Yuri.'' Bianca whispered.

Yuri was still in shock that he asked and she said yes. His heart was still racing "Uh-we're getting married" he studdered "I proposed and she said yes". A flood of emotions was overwhelming him. He couldn't explain what they all were.

Joseph stood and walked towards Bianca and stood there for a while before smiling and said ''God bless your marriage, my sister.'' Giovanni and Joseph both embraced Bianca and Michelle cheered them on. Joseph then turned to Yuri and said ''Take good care of my sister, Yuri. Give her a good life in matrimony.'' Giovanni and the others congratulated Yuri and Bianca and Michelle hugged Yuri happily. ''My life is good. My nation is well kept and my sister is getting married. How can it get better?'' Giovanni remarked.

OOC-Should we do a wedding or is this all?

Yuri smiled at their approval "I promise on my life to treat her with all the love and respect she deserves" he replied. He brushed a tear from his eye before it could fall down his cheek.

)CC: If you want to

''Let us hope you do so.'' Giovanni said. ''I'll go and plan the wedding. Yuri, perhaps your parents could attend? The entire Monet family will be there.'' Joseph said. Michelle was excited and tried to jump around in joy because of the event.

OOC-How about we do one and then to end the RP, I write some sort of epilogue?

OCC: An epilogue sounds great.

Yuri smiled "My parents wouldn't miss it for the world" he replied.

OCC: I'll make a wedding thread at some point

OOC-Thanks and when will you make the wedding thread? Are you able to tonight perhaps?

''I am sure they would not and neither would mine.'' Joseph said. He then joked ''Tell me if there are any children born or anything.'' Of course, he would want to know if there were.

Michelle was talking to Bianca, hoping she could get married one day. Giovanni then said ''Yuri, I have an idea. Perhaps my wedding with Marie can go at the same time as yours with my sister, Bianca?''

OOC-Perhaps we do Giovanni/Marie's wedding at the same time as Bianca/Yuri's? I RP both Giovanni and Marie.

OCC: That sounds fine with me. I'll get to work.

Yuri thought for a moment "Sure, that's a great idea" he replied with a smile. It would be interesting to have a double wedding.

OCC: Any suggestions on a name for the thread?

OOC-How about Love Found At Last? I'm still thinking of some.

OCC: That sounds fine with me. I'll get to work.

Yuri thought for a moment "Sure, that's a great idea" he replied with a smile. It would be interesting to have a double wedding.

OOC-Thanks, I'll fix things up.

'"Thanks, Yuri. I know it will. Marie and Bianca can help each other out with the women part of the wedding, for example a bachlorette party.'' Giovanni said. Joseph came and said ''I would like Michelle as flower girl. As for best man, I'll take that place. I'll fix the wedding up to be a blast.''

OCC: How about: The Wedding of Yuri and Bianca or...I don't know. I'm spent on ideas.

Yuri thought "That sounds good. What about the best man for my wedding?" he asked. There was much planning to do.

OCC: How about: The Wedding of Yuri and Bianca or...I don't know. I'm spent on ideas.

OOC-I'm trying to think of some. Let me try to.

Yuri thought "That sounds good. What about the best man for my wedding?" he asked. There was much planning to do.

''I'll be best man for your wedding, Yuri and my dear friend, Ferdinand can be the best man for Giovanni.'' Joseph said. Ferdinand was a leader from the Great Hell, a quality commander.

"Alright then" Yuri replied. "I need to sit down, this is a bit overwhelming". Yuri said as he stepped outside and into the open air. He took a seat and sank into thought of what he's done. he had no regrets, he was happy but nervous. he closed his eyes.

OCC: Bump

"Alright then" Yuri replied. "I need to sit down, this is a bit overwhelming". Yuri said as he stepped outside and into the open air. He took a seat and sank into thought of what he's done. he had no regrets, he was happy but nervous. he closed his eyes.

OOC-Can we start the wedding now perhaps? Making sure.

Yuri felt a soft hand on his shoulder, it was Bianca. She stood with him and said ''Yuri, are you ok? This must be a rush for you or something.'' Bianca kissed him and said ''Do you admire the scenery and nature, Yuri? I do. It is amazing to see.''

Yuri held her hand "I'm fine. I just get a little tense and just needed to get some air. Yes, I do love the scenery" he replied with a tired smile.

OCC: I can't think of a name

Yuri held her hand "I'm fine. I just get a little tense and just needed to get some air. Yes, I do love the scenery" he replied with a tired smile.

OCC: I can't think of a name

OOC-I am sure we will get a name soon.

''I love it too.'' Bianca said. She sat with him and said ''Let's hold each other, close our eyes and relax together in this fine day.'' She put her head on his shoulder and said ''With my heart, I love you, Yuri.''

"Thank you, Bianca" he replied. Being with her helped him to relax. he closed his eyes and wrapped one arm around her. "I love you too" he replied softly. It was a beautiful day and he was with a beautiful woman.

OCC: Sorry, I'm drawing a blank

OCC: Curse you writer's block!!

OCC: Bump

OCC: Bump

"Thank you, Bianca" he replied. Being with her helped him to relax. he closed his eyes and wrapped one arm around her. "I love you too" he replied softly. It was a beautiful day and he was with a beautiful woman.

OCC: Sorry, I'm drawing a blank

Bianca closed her eyes and relaxed, holding Yuri. After a while, Bianca said ''Yuri, do you want something to eat? I am a little furnished myself.''

"Something to eat sounds nice" Yuri replied with a small smile. he was over joyed and overwhelmed at the same time. They got up and Yuri stretched his muscles back. "Quite an eventful evening, wouldn't you say?" he asked with a smirk.

OCC: Sorry about the writers block. How does this sound: Two Weddings in Thetania

OOC-I was thinking of that. That would be good. Let's start the wedding now, this will be the last post.

''I concur, it is an eventful evening.'' Bianca said. She got up with him and they enjoyed each other's company while eating together.

OCC: I gotta go, can't make the thread now but I'll do it tonight, sorry.

OCC: Bump

OCC: Bump
