Oh, boy, the RP pressure is on! :D Well, I have some ideas, but I need to let them marinate first. I guess I'm the one who got us into this :P, but it escalated quickly from snide remark, sotto voce, to marriage proposal between two major European powers!

Voltaire is EXACTLY what I was thinking when I imagined how a Fritz/Joseph relationship would play out. Joseph was less all-out crazy than Voltaire, but he had a definite mind of his own, and I don't see that going very well. Also, Fritz doesn't have the strong feelings for Joseph that he has for Voltaire, so he might be even less inclined to look for (what he considers) the good when they start to clash.

...This is gonna be fun.
