Gandiva.

The bow which was made by the creator, Brahma himself, was gifted to Arjun for his valor by Agnidev. Arjun single handedly destroyed all the naga forces, their king, and even his father, Lord Indra, without taking a single persons help. Vaishnavi knew that this would happen, and also knew what her husband is capable of doing, but seeing all these in live was something else for her. Soon enough, the Naga forces and their king were on Arjun's feet, pleading for him to spare their lives, which he obviously did as a man of distinction himself. For some reason, She found her husband hot in an unconventional situation like this.

They all went towards him and stood beside him, with Draupadi and Vaishnavi on either side of his. Indra became very happy at his son's valour and blessed him, along with Agnidev. Both the celestial beings blessed him and also looked at Vaishnavi, ever so slightly directing their blessings towards her as well. Arjun and Vaishnavi looked at each other, as they understood that they just got blessed as a couple. Indra told him, "Son, I'm very much pleased by you. Thus, I'm appointing the great engineer Viswakarma to build a palace for you! That palace will be one of a kind in this whole Aryavart! No one has ever made, or no one will ever be able to make a palace like that, again! And Arjun! You will be the Commander in charge of this city!". 

Vaishnavi continued, "As Lord Indra suggested, after the palace gets completed, this place will no longer be called as Khandava Prastha! From here on, This place is called as INDRAPRASTHA!".

Indraprastha.

Heaven on land. Never have anyone seen something like this, and not sure anyone will ever see something like this. That palace instantly became Vaishnavi's and everyone else's favourite. She was roaming around, checking out all the rooms by herself. As soon as she saw a very huge room, she was fixed that it will be Draupadi's room from hereon. Every year, her husbands has to come to her room, not the otherwise. She did not want to compromise on her sister's comfort. As she was making everything ready for Yudisthir and Draupadi's first night together, she saw a bow being kept on the slab there.

She went there and picked up the bow out of curiosity. She inspected it and smiled to herself, "Gandiva, huh? Well, Hello Gandiva! Ishwari this side. Why are you alone here? Huh? Not gonna lie, your owner looked very hot with you in his hand! By the way, What is your careless owner doing leaving you all alone?", she spoke to it in a cutest voice.

"Haa! He is admiring his beloved wife in a very careless way!", she heard Arjun's voice and turned around to see him leaning to a pillar with one hand near his heart. She immediately dropped the weapon, But, Arjun caught it from falling and caressed it, "Hey Senapati of Dwaraka!, be careful with my Gandiva! This is the weapon of the Senapati of Indraprasth", he threw her an accusing look.

She side eyed him and said, "Oh hello! I wasn't trying to do anything to your GANDIVA! Okay! Cha, always thinking negative things! Atleast, think something positive Mr. Always pessimistic!", and turned around folding her hands. He came infront of her and said, "Hmm... Something positive huh? I just heard you calling me hot! That is positive enough i guess", and continued to admire his bow, while she had her eyes wide open.

"I- I didn't say it like that. What I meant is that bow was looking hot in your hands!", she managed. He looked promptly at her and smirked, "Both means the same ma'am! Weird girl!", he scoffed and looked back at his bow. She looked at him with her mouth open and threw hands at him, "Haaww! What did you call me?", making him go back near the slab. "Hey! Hey! Don't!", he deliberately wasn't trying to stop her attacks, as he was enjoying it. She finally got hold on both his hands and smiled widely in victory, "Haa!! You lose! Against me!!".

He looked at her intently and slowly got hold of her hands, pretty easily. "I am lost long back to you!", and pulled her towards him. For some reason, he was still appearing hot and irresistible to her, so she just obliged to whatever he was doing to her. He sneaked his hands around her waist and lifted her up, "If I should not call you weird, what else should I call you?", he made her sit on the slab, and raised his head asking, "Huh?".
