As the title says, this is just a normal Neptune x Noire fanfiction. My first time writing one of these, so if I did anything wrong, don't be afraid to insult my writing. Rated T for language, and that's about it.

"Hey Noire?" On a hot and lazy summer day, the last CPUs you'd expect it from manage to have some girl talk... or something to that effect. "You ever wanna confess to somebody?"

Planeptune is on its last limbs. Shares are at an all time low, Neptune has run herself ragged trying to support what's left of her country, and Nepgear has been comatose for weeks. Fearing the demise of their nation imminent, Histoire summons the other CPUs to request that they save Planeptune, using the only means left: One of the CPUs... must marry Neptune. [Part 3 is here!]
