ooc: sorry this took sooo long, I had an interruption

With her hand still wrapped tightly around her husband's, Vianna made her way through the crowds of tourists and closer over to the immense fontana, a grin adorning her lightly tanned face as they grew closer and closer to their goal. It was so… big! And so historical and detailed and just… beautiful. Of course, being European, Fervi weren't as blown away by history like us silly Americans, but even European themselves were impressed by the beauty of this fountain, by all the history and beauty and art it held. It wasn't just another building that had been there for centuries, no, it was a work of art, the Mona Lisa of sculptures and fountains if you will. And as they drew closer to it, its beauty only seemed to grow, all its fine details very gently and elegantly lit by the golden light that showered it once nighttime arrived.

Eventually, Vianna led herself and Ferris close enough to the fountain that they could even sit at the very edge of it if they wished. But instead of sitting, Vianna climbed onto its edge instead and gazed down at the crystal waters. It was large enough to be its own pool (at least for kids, as it wasn't deep enough for an adult-sized person to really just swim in there). Vianna grinned at the sight, feeling a strong urge to just jump right in. She knew the city guards would have their head if they dared try to disturb the peace somewhere this important, though. "Isn't it pretty, Professor?" Vianna asked, turning to her husband with an almost childlike excitement, a little taller than her husband now, due to the place she'd taken.

Vince felt like he was in the twilight zone.
First Julia doesn't spend all his money, then she pays for things with her own money, and now she was assuring him that not only was he not a jerk, but she had deserved to feel bad too, that she needed it. Vince was baffled. Had Airi and Vianna done something to his girlfriend? Did they feed her a potion without her noticing during the time they had been apart? What happened?!
But then, just when things were starting to really confuse the young man who had never really been too bright in the first place, she spoke again, this time in a more Julia-like fashion as she exclaimed that he shouldn't make her feel bad like that again. Vince grinned, a sort of relief washing over him as she said this. He did appreciate Julia's new understanding, he truly did, but at the end of the day Vince still preferred his bossy girlfriend; it was precisely because she bossed him around and didn't go chasing after him like some trained puppy that he liked her, that she differed from all the other girls he had met before. And it was weird, really, that he'd find himself attracted to someone who'd boss him around and scold him, but that was just the way Julince were - weird.

"It's good to have you back, Jules," he announced teasingly, as if the girl was just really arriving now and he had been talking to someone else all this time. "C'mon, let's go see the fountain," he said, taking her hand into his own with a bit of a grin, looking a little too happy to have his girlfriend back to scolding him; it was for that reason that Julia would never truly, completely change. "Unless," started Vince suddenly as they began to make their way through the crowds of tourists, a smirk now beginning to adorn his lips so a more devious sort of expression took over his features, "Julia wanted to surprise me with more of her unexpected completely selfless kindness? What's next, are you going to promise me a foot massage every night after work?" he asked, raising his eyebrows teasingly at the girl. "That would be extremely kindhearted of you, Jules," he added with a grin.
