As you and Russia walk across the battlefield, you spot Hungary running across your path. "Wow, she's really cute," You think. Then you notice that she has her frying pan on her person. That could mean trouble. "Hello Hungary," you say. "You look really nice today." Hungary blushes and you and Russia keep on walking. Turning around, you make eye contact and mouth "Meet me when I come back." Hungary mouths back,"OK." 

      When you enter Russia's temporary camp you see a large white tent, perfectly blending in with the snow. "We will go in here, da?" Russia says. The inside of the tent is outfitted with a cot, desk, and stove. "So, you want to try to persuade me to stop fighting, da?"

     "Uh... yes," you answer. "I think you should stop the fighting because it's nearly Christmas time." "Hmmmm. OK, I will stop the fighting until Christmas is over." "Really, that easily?" you ask. "No, actually. I saw that look you gave Hungary. You like her,da? Well then, I'll stop fighting completely if you go on a successful date with her. Deal,da?" Russia says.  Your stomach gives a lurch. "Deal," you say, although your mind protests against your words. "Good, I'll check with you the day after Christmas, da?" "Yeah, sure."
