Proud and Ursi are taking two of their favorite heroes to the lanes: Sven and Lina.  I'm guessing this was just an excuse for Ursi to play Lina.  And Proud was like, "k...well...I play Sven then."  And Ursi was all like, "k, cool."  Then Proud was all like, "So about this 7.03 Dota 2 thing...I love you."  And Ursi was like, "I love you too.  Roland is garbage."  And then they cosplayed Lina and Sven at their wedding and totally lived happily ever after.  The End.  Story by Cyphus.  Inspired by true events.  #UrsiLinaCosplay2017
