"Will you marry me?"

These words stuck with Yūki far after she had said yes. Each time she thought of the words, she found herself grinning like an idiot, something Silja was quick to pick up on.

"Heyyyyyyy, what are you so happy about? Did Maiko finally put a ring on that finger?" Silja asked, almost mockingly.

Yūki's face flushed with color, "How, uhm... How could you tell? I mean, it only happened yesterday and... uhm... I am embarrassed now..." She said innocently.

Silja looked taken aback, "Oh crap, I was just joking about that, I did not think she actually... Oh, well, anyway, I forgot to tell you happy birthday, so yeah, happy twenty-second birthday."

Yūki beamed, "Thank you, Silja!"

Silja gazed at the sky as though she were deep in thought, a sort of gaze that was unbreakable. Suddenly, Silja jumped.

"Yūki, I just had the best idea!" Silja exclaimed, "You like wargames, right? So we should host one! It will be very fun!"

Yūki nodded furiously, "Yes! That sounds very fun! I want to play wargames with everyone!"

Silja gave Yūki a thumbs up and then ran off. Within twenty minutes, Silja had gathered Eloisa, Jutte, Maiko, and Amberjill.

Amberjill offered a hand to Yūki, "Oh, hello, Yūki... I do not believe that we have properly met each other yet. I am sorry, I have been busy filling out a lot of paperwork that Silja was supposed to do," 

Amberjill glanced at Silja, "Oh! Not that I am angry at Silja or anything, I understand that her job is very important!"

Yūki took Amberjill's hand, "It is okay! I like your hair! It looks so nice!"

Amberjill smiled, "No y-"

"Hey, hey, hey! Are we going to do this wargame or just compliment each other's hair?" Jutte butted in.

"Oh! Yeah, uhm, so we have a beach we have permission to use and we have five converted merchant ships, three warships, and a flagship for each side. So, now we just need you all to gather some soldiers, we have a lot of wooden swords and rubber tipped arrows... The ships fire paint, too, not the normal shells." Amberjill responded.

Silja shrugged, "Hey, what if I do not have soldiers, huh?"

Eloisa sighed, "Silja, you have all of the Navy to pick from, just choose anybody, honestly!" Eloisa turned to Yūki, "I would dare to say it is cheating if you bring your Anti-Titan Squad, but I shall allow it."

Yūki nodded, "Understood!" 

Yūki truly was not listening, she was too busy reveling in the fact that Maiko had proposed to her.

"Okay then, we shall all bring our forces to the beach tomorrow when the sun is at its peak." Eloisa proclaimed.

"Understood!" Everyone said in response.
