IC: Her eyes become very sad at that. She'd say she was sorry for his loss, but she knows that wouldn't help, it never helped her, anyway. So she stays silent, hoping to comfort him by being there for him.

Ivan chuckled a bit, " No point feeling sorry for me. She was a casualty of war, and I killed all those involved in her death long before you were even born. I'm just not sure if I want to put anyone in danger like that again." Ivan said taking a seat. Although he didn't think about it much, Vienna would be in danger regardless because he was her sire.
IC: She debates pointing out how this started with her taking a car for him, but decides against it. She thinks for a moment, choosing her words carefully. I don't care if I do end up dying, he's already given me hundreds of years that I never would have had without him, and honestly? I don't think I'd mind giving up more, just to have some time with him… if only I knew how to say it.
OOC:
Ivan walked up from the basement and started giving out tasks to their servants and then began working on his laptop.
IC:
OOC: wasn't he able to hear her thoughts?
(Shhhh..... He said he wouldn't do that unless it was an emergency.)
IC: She walks with him, having the idea, but still trying to put the words together. She nods to herself, thinking she's got it.
OOC:
Ivan looks up from his work, " Yes my dear, how can I help you?" Ivan asked as he saw Vienna just sort of standing there.
IC: She takes a deep breath. "Ivan… I love you. I have for a long time now, and I…" she's flushed, nervous as all hell. "I want to be with you."
OOC:
Processing..... Processing .... "Hmmm..... Umm.... In what manner?" Ivan asked quickly shutting his laptop.
IC: "I mean romantically, I've been trying to figure out how to say it." For pretty much this entire relationship. she adds mentally, her chest tight with nerves.
OOC:
"Huh..... alright then." Ivan said looking very shocked at this announcement. He had thought of Vienna as a daughter up until now. Now that she's announced this he's begun seeing her in a new light, " I think my way, God bless her soul, would understand taking another wife after so long." Ivan said standing up.
IC: She feels joy burst through her as he says that. She smiles, not sure how to respond, she never let herself think past this. She steps forward, wanting to embrace him.
OOC:
Ivan smiled and embraced her, "I suppose we'll have to tell Vlad about this." He said jokingly
(Night)
IC: She holds him close, relief and joy flooding her senses. "I suppose." She jokes back. She doesn't know if that is actually something they would have to report, but right now all she cares about is the man in her arms.
OOC:
Ivan pulls back from the embrace, " So what did you have in mind after announcing this?"
IC: "I… honestly I never let myself think past there." She chuckles. She does wonder what he had in mind earlier, it seemed interesting.
OOC:
"I was planning on going out for a nice walk this evening, but now I'm not quite sure what to do with myself." Ivan said with a chuckle. He was surprisingly giddy about the whole situation.
IC: "Or me." She feels hot all over, and she can't seem to stop grinning.
OOC:
Ivan smiled and pulled Vienna closer, " Any ideas coming to mind?" Ivan asked with a seductive tone.
