thinks that is terrible. D:

agrees and proceeds to cling to Matthew. He's missed you :c

stumbles and frowns. Poor australia. D:

pouts, did Matthew not miss him too? ;n;

flails. He missed him a lot.

is glad. For a moment there he thought Matthew was glad that he'd been busy D:

thinks it is no fun working so much.

agrees, all work and no play makes for a slightly broken Australia. Perhaps Matthew should try and fix him up~

will fix him up some poutine.

... makes a face.

blinks... australia does not like poutine?

doesn't like chips with cheese curds topped with gravy and then some. It looks nasty :T

frowns. It's, like...one of his national foods.

.... doesn't try to force Vegemite down Matthew's throat :cx

wasn't trying to force. He was offering.

knows... he's sorry. He'll have some chips though?

can make him fairy bread if that is the sort of thing that fixes him up.

would be happy with a quick kiss and a cuddle really.... but if Matthew is offering Fairybread....

is not sure what he wants.

wants a little affection. He's like a lovebird, he needs his other half to cheer him up.

gives him a quick hug, then.

doesn't let go and infact tries to pick him up... but he's heavy. Must be all that cheese curd.

pulls away. He can eat whatever he wants, thank you.

sighs, he was joking.

goes red in the face. How was he to know that?

hugs him, kissing his coloured cheeks with quick pecks. 'You should know not to take most of the things I say seriously.'

blinks up at him, "Then what should I take seriously?"

thinks, 'Well I mean it when I say I love you... but you shouldn't take anything that sounds like an insult seriously.

is glad. "Good...I like my cheese curd."

laughs lightly, 'You're perfect the way you are... cheese curd and all.'

pulls back again, smiling weakly. "No one is perfect."

blinks, 'I'm not saying you're perfect.... I'm saying you're perfect for me despite your faults... they make you who you are.' He blushes,_

'And I love you for that.'

thinks that is cheesy, yet he goes red in the face. "Thank you."

isn't trying to be cheesy. 'No problem.'

gives him a pat on the shoulder.

feels as though he was just treated like a child... but shakes it off. 'What have you been up to?

'

replies, "Just work, really."

blinks, 'So why were you so sympathetic if you're in the same boat?'

"Because I love you, duh."

smiles brightly at that, 'Thank you.'

smiles in return.

... looks around to make sure no one is about before trying to tickle Matthew, a determined look on his face >D.

stumbles over onto Australia, bursting out into laughter.

continues to tickle him, nuzzling his neck with his slight stubble. He loves Canada's laugh.

clings to the front of his shirt, trying to gather enough breath to beg him to stop.

stops when he realises the other is trying to speak, kissing the top of his head. 'You have a gorgeous laugh.'

inhales, deeply, trying to catch his breath. He rubs at his eyes with a small cough.

rubs his back, slightly worried at the cough.

waves his hand in dismissal. He's fine.

... starts laughing slightly, entertainment left over from the tickling session bubbling over until he's left laughing full on out.

blinks at him, bringing his hand up to his mouth as he soon coughs again.

stops laughing when he hears the second cough, quickly bringing a hand up to his forehead. 'Are you ill?'

shakes his head, stepping away from him. "No, I'm fine." No reason to be ill, yet.

steps forward again, taking his wrist with a huff. 'If you don't look after yourself you can still get ill.'

is not sure why grabbing his wrist is necessary. "But I do look after myself. I'm not ill."

is stopping him from escaping!

asks, 'Why are you coughing then?'

is not trying to escape, though!

"I was just catching from my breath."

*catching my

lets go then :T. 'Sorry.' He didn't know Matthew was so delicate D:

is not delicate, dammit. He crosses his arms, lightly pouting.

leans forward and presses a light on his lips to try and ease the pout away. 'You're so cute when you're pissed.

'

thinks it won't be so cute when he kicks him, but he kisses in return.

smiles, moving in for another small kiss, eyes dancing in amusement. 'I love you.'

gives him another kiss before mumbling, "I love you too."

blushes slightly at that, he's not so used to hearing it back. He hugs him, nuzzling his neck. 'Missed you too.'

raises a hand to meekly pet his hair. "But you're back for a bit, right?"

nods, 'For a bit... maybe. Depends on whether the boss calls or not.'

pulls back. "Oh, but...Thanksgiving is next week."

shakes his head, 'Nope it's in March.... why are you excited about picking berries?'

blinks. "What are you talking about?"

says, 'Thanksgiving Day.' Australian Thanksgiving Day.

*Australia's

shakes his head, appearing somewhat hurt. "It's on Monday. My Thanksgiving."

blinks, 'Oh, yes. Turkey and floats right?... you celebrate it with America?'

huffs, crossing his arms and turning away. "What does it matter?"

creeps around to face him, 'It matters because it's a time to be thankful for the people in out life.' He pouts, giving Matthew a bit of a_

kicked puppy look. 'I want to say thanks for us.'

looks down at the floor. "I was going to invite you, but you've been so busy as of late with important things."

takes his hand, squeezing it. 'I'll make time for Thanksgiving and then some!'

pulls his hand back. "It's not your holiday, so you don't need extra things on your plate."

sighs before shrugging his shoulders, 'Fine.'

puts his hands on his shoulders. "I'm inviting Mr. France, too. Do you both want to see me burn down my kitchen?"

... nods, 'I'd eat anything you cook for me.' He's very serious.

...d'aws on the inside. Then grabs onto him tightly for a hug.

hugs him back, glad he's in the good books again. It's true though, he would eat anything... even cheese curd ._.

presses a kiss to his cheek.

's ears turn slightly red and he smiles stupidly, looking fairly content.

"You want to hang out?"

nods, 'What do you have in mind?'

says, "I'm not sure. Maybe we can go get a pumpkin and carve it. "

nods his head cautiously, 'Will it keep for Halloween?'

* : D

(( /scared for Will xD))

"I'm not sure. It might be old by then."

shrugs.... 'Who cares~ Let's do it?'

beams. He is just so excited. So they magically arrive to the pumpkin patch. Wooo~.

... has never been to a pumpkin patch before... he imports them. He stares around in wonder, poking the occassional pumpkin.

smiles and looks around, being careful not to step on any. "See one you like?"

... picks a ridiculously small one. 'We could make a baby one... with a gap tooth and another one missing.' He then turns to another, 'Or a_

Koala one.'

continues to smile. "We can do a baby one if that is what you like."

... is sprouting off new ideas for each one he sees. He's a tad overexcited... why are there so many?

gives him a pat on the shoulder. "How about we do one of Bruce, eh?"

... thinks, 'Then we'll have to do one of Kuma too... so he doesn't get jealous.'

lightly laughs. "Kumaharu does not get jealous, but I suppose we ought to."

thinks he does >_>; 'Kumajirou would appreciate it, I think.'
