Russia wants
2011-01-30T08:06:12.000Z
to meet England properly so goes over to his house, knocking on the nations's door loudly. ^J^

England
2011-01-30T08:14:37.000Z
looks up from his book, not having expected a visitor. He goes to the door, opening it with a, "Yes?"
Russia
2011-01-30T08:16:00.000Z
smiles down at the much shorter nation. "Privet~"
England
2011-01-30T08:23:43.000Z
pauses, frowning momentarily before switching to a polite smile. "Hello, Russia. May I help you?"

Russia
2011-01-30T08:24:20.000Z
nods. "Da. I wanted to talk with England~"
England
2011-01-30T08:26:03.000Z
steps aside, then, opening the door widely for Russia. "Then please, do come in. Would you like a cup of tea?"
Russia
2011-01-30T08:27:02.000Z
steps in happily, nodding at him. "Da. A cup of tea sounds very nice."
England
2011-01-30T08:41:51.000Z
closes the door behind him and nods, showing Russia to the living room. "Make yourself at home, then. Is there a particular tea you'd like?"
Russia
2011-01-30T08:42:28.000Z
shakes head. "Any is fine with me~" he replied, sitting in a comfy chair. ^J^
England
2011-01-30T08:49:03.000Z
nods and prepares some tea. He comes back and sets them (and some burnt scones) in front of Russia, before sitting down as well. "What_
England
2011-01-30T08:49:08.000Z
did you want to speak to me about?"
Russia
2011-01-30T08:50:20.000Z
takes tea and sips, humming at the warm it gives. "I wanted to say Hello for one. And two to ask you about yourself. We nations
Russia
2011-01-30T08:50:31.000Z
should learn about one another dont you think?"
England
2011-01-30T08:55:05.000Z
blinks, a bit surprised as he picks up his own tea to take a sip. "I... suppose. If I may ask, what brought this on...?"
Russia
2011-01-30T08:56:16.000Z
tilted his head a bit in thought. "I do not...get out much you could say. And I thought it woud be good to get to know my fellow nations
Russia
2011-01-30T08:56:34.000Z
better. I decided to start with my favorites and move down." ^^
England
2011-01-30T09:00:49.000Z
doesn't know how to feel about being called a 'favorite', but nods anyway. "I see. Well, I'm glad to see that you've decided on doing so."
Russia
2011-01-30T09:03:06.000Z
smiles, sipping his tea. "Well where should we begin?" he asked.
England thinks
2011-01-30T09:14:06.000Z
. "Well... perhaps with our hobbies? What do you like to do in your spare time?"
Russia
2011-01-30T09:15:35.000Z
nods."That sounds resonable...well for me I like to read and play chess. Although finding an opponent to play with is hard,da?"
England
2011-01-30T09:25:44.000Z
smiles a bit. "I enjoy those two things, too. Perhaps we ought to play one day; I've been looking for a good partner myself."
Russia
2011-01-30T09:29:45.000Z
smales happily, not the normal fake childish smile. "Da. i would much enjoy that."
England
2011-01-30T09:32:56.000Z
sips his tea. "We can even play now, if you'd like...?
England
2011-01-30T09:33:02.000Z
*"
Russia
2011-01-30T09:41:36.000Z
perked up at the suggestion. "really?"
England
2011-01-30T09:50:27.000Z
nods, standing up to retrieve the chess set. "It's been a while since I've played, but I've been wanting to for a while, now."
Russia
2011-01-30T09:52:22.000Z
excited. "Same for me. I am looking forward to playing with you~"
England
2011-01-30T09:56:19.000Z
prepares the chess board, and then the pieces. "Black or white?"
Russia thinks
2011-01-30T09:58:33.000Z
. "black." he replied, not wanting th color of snow. He saw it too much.
England
2011-01-30T10:14:58.000Z
nods, setting the pieces up and beginning the game. "Most people choose white."
Russia
2011-01-30T10:18:31.000Z
smiles. "You will find i tend to be different than most~"
England
2011-01-30T10:30:59.000Z
moves a piece, smiling a bit. "That just gets me all the more excited, Russia."
Russia
2011-01-30T10:32:20.000Z
chuckles, dropping the childish mask he uses in front of others a bit and moves his own piece.
England
2011-01-30T10:34:09.000Z
glances up at him, also moving a piece. "I feel a bit reminiscent, now. This reminds me of the Great Game." A pause, "And the World Wars."
Russia thinks
2011-01-30T10:36:21.000Z
for a minute before moving another piece. "Oh does it? And why is that?"
England
2011-01-30T10:45:25.000Z
withholds a smile, and mimics his move. "You're different," he answers. "Less like a child and more like a hawk, if I may say so."
Russia
2011-01-30T10:51:10.000Z
watching the board. "I am going to take that as a compliment da?" he replied, moving another similar piece. "I could say the same to you.
Russia
2011-01-30T10:51:27.000Z
Although i think a hunting cat is a better discription."
England
2011-01-30T11:02:51.000Z
chuckles a bit, this time hesitating a bit before moving a piece. "Take it however you will." He glances up, a bit amused, and repeats, "A
England
2011-01-30T11:03:03.000Z
hunting cat? I suppose I'll have to take that as a compliment as well, then."
Russia
2011-01-30T11:11:09.000Z
smiles sincerly at him. "It was a compliment,da?" he said, before then moving a piece and claiming on of England's.
England
2011-01-30T11:18:47.000Z
blinks, a bit surprised by the smile. "...Thank you, then." He moves his own piece, eating one of Russia's in return. "You're not bad."
Russia
2011-01-30T11:20:22.000Z
chuckles, moving another piece. "I could say the same to you."
England
2011-01-30T11:31:16.000Z
sips his tea before also making a move. "I'm honored, and more than little pleased. It's been a while since I've had a challenge."
Russia
2011-01-30T11:42:34.000Z
decides to take a sip of his own tea as well.
Russia
2011-01-30T11:42:42.000Z
(stupid enter button)
Russia
2011-01-30T11:43:14.000Z
"Da. I cannot remeber the last time I got to play with someone. Let alone someone worth playing~"
England
2011-01-30T11:47:37.000Z
nods. "If I may ask, who was the last person you played with? I believe I last played with France, and... the frog isn't worth my time."
Russia
2011-01-30T11:48:47.000Z
makes a face. "Latvia. And he is so bad I felt like I was kicking a puppy. Easy and it kept asking for more,da?"
England feels
2011-01-30T11:50:44.000Z
a bit bad for Latvia. "I suppose we're on the same page, then. It's rare to find someone with a mind as sharp as your own."
Russia
2011-01-30T11:51:58.000Z
nods. "I agree fully~ I think it is enjoyable to be tasked with a challenge every now and then." he replied, sipping his tea while moving
Russia
2011-01-30T11:52:06.000Z
claiming another of England's pieces.
Russia
2011-01-30T11:52:22.000Z
(arnt we all smancy fancy pancy?)
England
2011-01-30T11:52:36.000Z
[ LMAO Very :'D ]
England
2011-01-30T11:54:40.000Z
also sips his tea, moving to counter Russia by claiming his piece in return. He hesitates before asking, "Did you ever play with America?"
Russia
2011-01-30T11:55:58.000Z
freezes before doing a small facepalm. "Unfortunatly."
England
2011-01-30T11:57:18.000Z
can't help but smile a bit at the reaction. "I'm supposing that he wasn't very good?"
Russia
2011-01-30T11:58:53.000Z
winces. "I thought my mind would commit suicide. Not only is his playing atrocious his vocabulary and sense of "fun conversation" makes one
Russia
2011-01-30T11:59:05.000Z
want to rip his own ears off,da?"
England
2011-01-30T12:00:49.000Z
chuckles. "Yes, well... he tends to be like that. He used to be an intelligent child, you know... way back in the early 1700s."
Russia
2011-01-30T12:02:02.000Z
nods. "What happened to make him so...so...well i apologize but so idiotic and stupid. He never thinks and never listens. I have more than
Russia
2011-01-30T12:02:14.000Z
once wished to pipe him in the face."
England
2011-01-30T12:07:31.000Z
smiles a bit wistfully. "I don't know. He's changed a lot over the years, and sometimes, I have to wonder if I know him at all anymore."
Russia
2011-01-30T12:16:00.000Z
looks at the other. "Are you sad?"
England
2011-01-30T12:18:57.000Z
shakes his head. "No, of course not. He's a handful, it's... not anything I'd miss."
Russia
2011-01-30T12:23:02.000Z
tilts head, moving another piece without even looking much. "It isnt good to lie to yourself.
Russia
2011-01-30T12:23:16.000Z
What do you see Amerika as? Or what do you wish he would be?"
England
2011-01-30T12:23:55.000Z
hesitates before moving a piece as well. "...An ally. I'm not foolish enough to wish for anything more than that, anymore."
Russia
2011-01-30T12:29:03.000Z
watching him. Takes a sip of tea while moving another piece, claiming a simple pawn. "You are lonely."
England
2011-01-30T12:30:20.000Z
frowns, both at the words and at the move, and moves another piece. "I'm not. I've plenty of people to keep me company..." Not really.
Russia
2011-01-30T12:32:02.000Z
looking at the board, hand cuped at chin. "You are lying. You are lonely do not deny it. I can see it in you. It is said we can see the
Russia
2011-01-30T12:33:16.000Z
things that are in others easier if we have it as well." said mater-of-factly. Moves a piece.
England
2011-01-30T12:34:40.000Z
moves a piece, claiming Russia's in retaliation. "I've no idea what you're talking about, Russia. We might've once lived under the same_
England
2011-01-30T12:35:03.000Z
conditions of having a vast empire, and then none at all, but... I don't-- I'm not lonely."
Russia
2011-01-30T12:36:30.000Z
just exchanges moves with him for a few minutes in silence, thinking before replying. "I would like to be your friend. Even if
Russia
2011-01-30T12:37:08.000Z
you are not lonely. I however am. I am unable to see my elder sister and am now alone. Not only that most avoid me. I would like a companion
Russia
2011-01-30T12:37:39.000Z
. And I was wondering if you would do me the honor?" he asked, making another move while sipping the last of his tea.
England
2011-01-30T12:38:11.000Z
pauses, a bit surprised by the confession, before making a move as well. "...The honour would be mine, Russia," he says, genuinely smiling_
England
2011-01-30T12:38:36.000Z
a bit. "I'd very much like to be your friend. I-- thank you."
Russia
2011-01-30T12:39:38.000Z
smiles back at him. "Then I am delighted to call you my friend. The first words to my new friend are this..." moves a piece to the side of
Russia
2011-01-30T12:39:46.000Z
the board. "Checkmate."
Russia
2011-01-30T12:39:51.000Z
^J^
England
2011-01-30T12:40:48.000Z
frowns, looking down at the board. How hadn't he noticed? "...Indeed," he says, quite displeased, but too gentlemanly to show it. "I'm_
England
2011-01-30T12:40:58.000Z
impressed, Russia. I don't remember the last time I've lost."
Russia
2011-01-30T12:42:19.000Z
smiling. "I will gladly play you any time. There were many moves where i thought you had outplayed me. I was fearful of losing. Something I
Russia
2011-01-30T12:42:25.000Z
havent felt in a long while."
England
2011-01-30T12:45:30.000Z
chuckles, sipping his tea. "I'm glad to hear that. I'd like to play you sometime again, too - repay the favour, you know."
Russia
2011-01-30T12:46:56.000Z
smile is more preditory. "I would like the challenge. I say we make wager. it is always fun to bet when you have a strong opponent,da?
Russia
2011-01-30T12:47:06.000Z
But if you decline it is fine with me."
England is
2011-01-30T12:47:55.000Z
intrigued by this; he's always liked challenges. "Of course. What's your wager, Russia?"
Russia thinks
2011-01-30T12:53:37.000Z
for a minute. "How about....the loser of the next game has to do whatever the winner says? How is that?"
Ann
2011-01-30T12:55:12.000Z
((OH GOD ENGLAND. DON'T DO IT.))
England
2011-01-30T12:58:06.000Z
[ ...BUT BACKING DOWN FROM A CHALLENGE nnnghh ]
Russia
2011-01-30T12:58:53.000Z
(oh mai. privet lurker. and i actually wasnt being bad that was the first thing to pop into my head. xD)
England
2011-01-30T12:59:03.000Z
hesitates; Russia burned his own capital, at one point... ah, but that was years ago. Surely, he can't be that bad... "...Alright."
England
2011-01-30T12:59:11.000Z
[ /WILL WIN THE NEXT GAME ]
Russia
2011-01-30T12:59:30.000Z
(*loves you England*....but what would you make me do?)
Russia
2011-01-30T13:00:24.000Z
smiled, clapping his hands happily. "Yay,da? I cannot wait for the next round. It is always so much more intense when there is something
Russia
2011-01-30T13:00:32.000Z
at stake isnt there?" ^J^
England
2011-01-30T13:01:10.000Z
[ :3 ]
England
2011-01-30T13:01:22.000Z
[ That's for me to know and you to find out, Russia. <3 ]
England
2011-01-30T13:01:41.000Z
chuckles, cleaning up the board. "I suppose so. But do keep in mind that I never lose twice."
Russia
2011-01-30T13:02:26.000Z
(*is now scared*....)
Russia
2011-01-30T13:02:50.000Z
watching him slyly. "We shall see,da?"
England
2011-01-30T13:02:52.000Z
[ B-) ]
Russia
2011-01-30T13:05:12.000Z
(^J^)
England has
2011-01-30T13:06:46.000Z
an amused glint in his eye as he leans back into his seat. "We shall. I look forward to having a favour fulfilled by you, Russia."
Russia
2011-01-30T13:09:20.000Z
pauses, wondering what that ment. "you already have a favour picked out?"
England
2011-01-30T13:13:31.000Z
nods. "Several, but... there's one in particular that I want the most. Did you not have one in mind when you issued the challenge?"
Russia
2011-01-30T13:19:01.000Z
shakes his head. "not in perticular. But I will think on it while we play~"
England is
2011-01-30T13:20:47.000Z
anticipating their next game. "That's fine. I'm certain that you won't find a need to think of one, anyway." He smiles, only half joking.
Russia
2011-01-30T13:22:22.000Z
chuckles. "Oh I think it should be okay to be prepared dont you?"
England
2011-01-30T13:31:02.000Z
finishes his tea. "I suppose. It's always good to be prepared - to win, and to lose."
Russia
2011-01-30T14:00:26.000Z
nodded in agreement, smiling. "Are we going to play or chat?" he asked.
England
2011-01-30T14:03:52.000Z
stands up, taking the tea cups. "We shall, after I get more tea." He goes to refill them. "Is there anything else you'd like, Russia?"
Russia
2011-01-30T14:04:28.000Z
shakes his head. "Other than wining again I would say not~" he teased.
England
2011-01-30T14:08:13.000Z
chuckles from the kitchen. "Well, pardon my manners as a host, but I'm afraid that's what thing I won't be giving you."
Russia
2011-01-30T14:10:55.000Z
couldnt help smiling big. "You will not be giving it. I plan on taking it,da?"
England
2011-01-30T14:12:49.000Z
smiles, though it has a bit of an edge to it as he returns with two cups of tea. "You cannot take what isn't there to take, Russia."
Russia
2011-01-30T14:14:28.000Z
takes his cup of tea, smiling with good humor. "We shall see my friend~"
England
2011-01-30T23:16:43.000Z
sets up the pieces again, and makes the first move. "That all aside, what else do you like? Not just as a hobby, but in general?"
Russia
2011-01-31T09:55:31.000Z
smiles, taking no time to move his first peice. "I like many things. Sunflowers, warm weather, friendly people, warm hearty food,....and
Russia
2011-01-31T09:55:44.000Z
nyet fighting. I dislike needless fighting.
England
2011-01-31T09:58:03.000Z
smiles a bit at the last part, and moves a piece. "I'm surprised you've come to England first, then. My lands aren't the sunniest."
Russia
2011-01-31T09:59:38.000Z
takes a sip of tea before moving again. "But they have a warm feel to them. And the people can be nice. And alot of the food is
Russia
2011-01-31T10:00:09.000Z
mainly made in a way that will keep hard working class people going nyet matter what. I like that,da?" he replied.
England
2011-01-31T10:04:08.000Z
chuckles, mirroring his move. "Do they?" he asks, genuinely happy to hear that. "Thank you, Russia. You're welcome any time you wish._
England
2011-01-31T10:04:19.000Z
I hope to visit your lands in the future, too. It's been a while since I've been to Moscow."
Russia was
2011-01-31T10:06:15.000Z
eyeing the board. It was only a few moves in but he could tell England was determined to win. He wasnt going to let that happen easily.
Russia
2011-01-31T10:06:57.000Z
moved again and claimed one of Englands pieces before awnsering. "Da. But I suggest warm clothes. It wouldnt be good for you to get
Russia
2011-01-31T10:07:11.000Z
frost bite while visiting my homeland." ^J^
England
2011-01-31T10:09:20.000Z
nods, immediately moving to retaliate and claim one of Russia's pieces. "Even during the summer...?"
Russia
2011-01-31T10:10:51.000Z
frowned, although the look resembled a pout as well. "Unfortunatly da it is. Although it is not too bad it is still colder than I would wish
Russia
2011-01-31T10:11:02.000Z
it." he replied, moving to claim another piece.
England was
2011-01-31T10:11:39.000Z
ready for that, and claimed another of Russia's pieces. "I'll be sure to bring several coats, then. Perhaps we can visit Spain, when you are
England
2011-01-31T10:11:45.000Z
free. His lands are almost always warm."
Russia
2011-01-31T10:13:45.000Z
paused, now looking hard at the board. The nation took a bit longer to move the next piece, feeling a bit nervous but he had a great poker
Russia
2011-01-31T10:14:33.000Z
face and would never show his worry. He had years of practice after all. "That sounds lovely. I actually have not had the pleasure of
Russia
2011-01-31T10:15:02.000Z
visiting Spain on a leisure trip. It has always been business before now."
England
2011-01-31T10:16:54.000Z
nods, smirking slightly as he claims a piece. "Neither have I, particularly because we're had such a rocky history with one another..."
Russia
2011-01-31T10:20:01.000Z
glaces over the board before moving again, only claiming a simple pawn. "I am curious why you two hate each other so,da?"
England is
2011-01-31T10:22:03.000Z
unfazed, and drinks his tea before moving another piece. "Spain and I? Our relations have... improved over the years, I suppose... but_
England
2011-01-31T10:22:16.000Z
in the past, we've fought each other several times - for gold, for land... you understand."
Russia
2011-01-31T10:23:09.000Z
nodded, he did understand. The Russian moved again before sipping his own tea. The game was resonably evenly matched, but it leaned in
Russia
2011-01-31T10:23:18.000Z
England;s favor and Russia didnt like that.
England
2011-01-31T10:27:04.000Z
made a move, claiming another piece with a smug smile. "It's a bit like you and America, I suppose... though, you two have it worse."
Russia
2011-01-31T10:30:19.000Z
made a face as he moved another piece, getting distracted from the game from the mere mention of hi and America's relationship.
Russia
2011-01-31T10:31:01.000Z
He ended up making a bad move, although he didnt notice right away. "Ah you have nyet idea. As nations we fight and hurt each other
Russia
2011-01-31T10:31:45.000Z
but since it is hard to kill us we normally do not worry on that. But me and Amerika have tried countless times to end the other for good.
Russia
2011-01-31T10:32:00.000Z
-sigh- It is not something I am proud of."
England
2011-01-31T10:35:16.000Z
remembers that; he'd helped America spy, after all. "Mutually Assured Destruction... those were rather dreary times."
Russia
2011-01-31T10:38:32.000Z
agreed, moving another piece.It was then that he saw his earlier mistake and wanted to swear.
England
2011-01-31T10:39:26.000Z
chuckles a bit and moves a piece, claiming Russia's again. At this rate, he'd definitely win. "I hope conversation isn't proving to be_
England
2011-01-31T10:39:33.000Z
too distracting, Russia."
Russia
2011-01-31T10:40:41.000Z
shakes his head to clear it, regaining his composer. "Oh nyet~" he said, poer face back in place as he moved again, this time claiming one
Russia
2011-01-31T10:41:06.000Z
of England's pieces, he needed to not get distracted, he thought while sipping more tea.
England is
2011-01-31T10:43:43.000Z
still smiling as he moves another piece forward. "If you're not too busy for the remainder of the day, would you like to stay for dinner?"
Russia
2011-01-31T10:44:58.000Z
eyes widened a bit, totally thrown. He had honestly never been asked that before. He nodded and smiled happily, once again distracted as
Russia
2011-01-31T10:45:10.000Z
he moved. "Da...please that sounds wonderful."
England
2011-01-31T10:48:44.000Z
's smile turns a bit more genuine, even as he moves to claim a piece. "It's been a while since I've had a guest over. I... It's nice."
Russia was
2011-01-31T10:51:35.000Z
still on cloud nine, he moved again without really thinking. "I havent really spent time with anyone. It is nice as well."
England
2011-01-31T10:56:19.000Z
nods, claiming another piece. "Well, feel free to come over as often as you wish - it'll be easier than me visiting you, if weather is_
England
2011-01-31T10:56:22.000Z
of any concern."
Russia
2011-01-31T10:57:44.000Z
had to nod, agreeing. "Da it would be easier." he replied, moving another piece. Russia was now in a corner, cursing the distractions.
England
2011-01-31T11:01:48.000Z
sips his tea, moving another piece.
England
2011-01-31T11:02:10.000Z
victory was close. "Are you certain that conversation isn't too distracting?" He asks, amused.
Russia
2011-01-31T11:03:17.000Z
forced himself to keep his poer face, although it was hard. "Nyet nyet. Do not worry." he said, moving to claim another of England's pieces.
England
2011-01-31T11:13:38.000Z
hums, easily retaliating and claiming a piece - a pawn, but it's something. "Is there anything in particular you'd like for dinner?"
Russia was
2011-01-31T11:15:40.000Z
looking at the board, trying to think. He glanced up at England, reminded about the dinner and ended uo placing his piece in the wrong place
Russia
2011-01-31T11:15:53.000Z
. "Oh I will take whatever~"
Russia
2011-01-31T11:16:10.000Z
He replied, then noticing hi mistake and nearly his himself.
England
2011-01-31T11:18:04.000Z
immediately moves to claim that piece. "Well, seeing as it -is- Sunday... Sunday roast should do. Have you eaten English food before?"
Russia
2011-01-31T11:19:52.000Z
nodded, leaning close to whisper something to England. "I actually really like English food. Many say it is terrible but it is good for
Russia
2011-01-31T11:20:35.000Z
keeping someone strong for cold weather. And it will aslo last,da?" he replied, coming from a country that sometimes had trouble in the food
Russia
2011-01-31T11:21:12.000Z
area. It was sometimes hard to get enough in the past,although it was better now. He then looked at the board, frowning at the fact that
Russia
2011-01-31T11:21:34.000Z
he couldnt think of a way out. he moved a piece idley. In hopes it wouldnt screw him over.
England
2011-01-31T11:28:32.000Z
smiles genuinely. Finally, someone with good taste! "I'm glad you think so. Most others seem to be much too picky with their food. In that_
England
2011-01-31T11:29:01.000Z
case, you might as well just stay the night. It'll be too late to go home after dark, and... you can try some authentic English breakfast."
Russia
2011-01-31T11:31:18.000Z
smiling happily, to easily distracted by his cloud nine happiness. "Really? Iw ould love to. Thank you for your kindness England~" he
Russia
2011-01-31T11:31:51.000Z
replied enthusiastically. So excited. He moved a piece at random, mind kinda somewhere else.
England
2011-01-31T11:32:59.000Z
smiles. "The pleasure is all mine, Russia," he says, chuckling as he moves a piece. "Checkmate."
Russia
2011-01-31T11:37:41.000Z
blinked. He stared at the board in shock for a minute before making a face. "It seems...I have lost..." he said, feeling defeat. It was then
Russia
2011-01-31T11:38:37.000Z
he remembered the wager and gulped, looking up at England. "You win...what is it I will be doing for you?" he asked, feeling a teensy bit
Russia
2011-01-31T11:38:39.000Z
scared.
England
2011-01-31T11:39:56.000Z
chuckles, his smile pleasant as he looks up at Russia. "Indeed, you have. My favour is simple, Russia - I'd like for you to go and draw_
England
2011-01-31T11:40:14.000Z
thicker eyebrows on everyone you see. With semi-permanent marker, please."
Russia
2011-01-31T11:42:38.000Z
stares at the other for a minute before cracking up. He had been so scared but that is all England wanted from him. It was hilarious. The
Russia
2011-01-31T11:43:13.000Z
big nation hadnt laughed this hard in front of anyone since he couldnt even remember. Russia held his sides as he continued, gasping
Russia
2011-01-31T11:43:51.000Z
for breathe. "T-that..That is all? You had me terrified of something horrible...b-b. but that...hahahah a-alright. T-that I can d-do,da?"
England
2011-01-31T11:44:47.000Z
huffs a bit, but says nothing while Russia laughs. It's actually surprising, and he finds that he can't be angry when he's being treated to_
England
2011-01-31T11:45:14.000Z
such a rare sight. "Of course that's all," he says, almost offended that Russia would think he had something different planned. "What did_
England
2011-01-31T11:45:27.000Z
you think I'd make you do? Grovel at America's feet and praise NASA?"
Russia
2011-01-31T11:46:16.000Z
slowly breaks off the laugh into breatheless giggles, finally maoning as he stops. It had hurt to laugh that hard but still felt good.
Russia
2011-01-31T11:47:01.000Z
Russia panted as he replied, still out of breath. "N-nyet. I thought..you would m..make me do something r-really embarressing or strange,da?
Russia
2011-01-31T11:47:26.000Z
Not something so e..eas..easy." he chuckled, still a big smile on his face.
England
2011-01-31T11:51:14.000Z
sips his tea, refraining from crossing his arms. "I'm not -that- cruel. And besides, it's about time people learned to appreciate eyebrows_
England
2011-01-31T11:51:19.000Z
that are... slightly thicker than the norm."
Russia
2011-01-31T11:57:36.000Z
looking at his eyebrows. "What is wrong with them really? I do not honestly thing there is anything bad about them. They make ENgland
Russia
2011-01-31T11:58:12.000Z
England,da? I cant imagine you without them. They look good on you. I doubt another nation could pull it off,da?" ^J^
England
2011-01-31T12:02:19.000Z
reddens slightly, feeling a bit self-conscious about them, now. "...Th-Thank you, I suppose," he mutters, looking away as he begins cleaning
England
2011-01-31T12:02:31.000Z
up. "I'll, uh... have dinner started in a bit."
Russia
2011-01-31T12:04:17.000Z
nods, smiling still. " Alright~ Do you need me to help?"
England
2011-01-31T12:06:00.000Z
shakes his head. "No, it'll be fine; you're a guest. Please, make yourself at home, and tell me if there's anything that you need."
Russia
2011-01-31T12:13:02.000Z
nods. "Da. Thank you England~" he said happily.
England
2011-01-31T12:18:06.000Z
smiles a bit, and goes to the kitchen to prepare the food. "You're welcome. Feel free to watch the telly; I'm sure you can find something_
England
2011-01-31T12:18:12.000Z
that you'd like."
Russia
2011-01-31T12:22:34.000Z
had never watched English Tv and turned it on. It wasnt long till he was absorned in an English cartoon.
Russia
2011-01-31T12:22:45.000Z
oJo
England
2011-01-31T12:23:24.000Z
comes back out after the main preparations are done, and chuckles. "It's a rather old cartoon. Are you enjoying it?"
Russia
2011-01-31T12:24:38.000Z
jumped and turned it off, embarressed being caught watching a kids show. "E-England!...a.ah is dinner ready?" ^J^;
England
2011-01-31T12:29:18.000Z
smiles, turning it back on. "No, not yet; it'll take a while, I'm afraid." A pause, "I watch this show every now and then, too. It cheers_
England
2011-01-31T12:29:20.000Z
me up."
Russia
2011-01-31T12:32:45.000Z
blushes, still embarressed. "I..it is good,da? I like it."
England
2011-01-31T12:35:01.000Z
nods, turning his eyes to the screen. "As do I. I'm honestly still surprised that they still play it; it's been a while since I've touched_
England
2011-01-31T12:35:03.000Z
the telly."
Russia
2011-01-31T12:39:53.000Z
giggles. "I almost never watch telivision. Last time I did I believe it was in black and white."
England
2011-01-31T12:42:20.000Z
blinks, surprised. "That's... quite a while back. I believe I last used it to watch the Olympics. Your figure skaters were beautiful."
Russia
2011-01-31T12:45:13.000Z
nods. "I tend to watch the Olympics in person." He then blushed. "And..t-thank you for the compliment. We have plenty of ice to practice is
Russia
2011-01-31T12:45:17.000Z
all,da?"
England
2011-01-31T12:47:30.000Z
smiles slightly. "I would've liked to go, but... paperwork. And even with all that, it was still an amazing sight. Do you think I'd be able_
England
2011-01-31T12:47:39.000Z
to see people like them, if I visit Moscow?"
Russia
2011-01-31T12:52:23.000Z
smiles wide. "Of course. There are many like that in my country. You just have to look.da?" he replied, wrapping an arm around England to
Russia
2011-01-31T12:52:27.000Z
give him a friendly hug.
England
2011-01-31T12:53:34.000Z
stiffens almost immediately, reddening just a bit. He doesn't remember when the last time he was hugged was. "I... I-I look forward to it."
Russia
2011-01-31T13:00:44.000Z
hugs more,happy. "So will I~ I will have to show you around,da?" He didnt seem to notice the position they were in.
England
2011-01-31T13:04:32.000Z
squirms slightly, embarrassed. "That... would be much appreciated... I'll, uh, show you around London, too."
Russia
2011-01-31T13:10:49.000Z
squeezes him gently in the hug. "I would like that~"
England
2011-01-31T13:12:22.000Z
nods, hesitantly and slowly relaxing. "It'll be my pleasure, Russia. if there's anything else I can do for you, just ask."
Russia
2011-01-31T13:37:08.000Z
enjoying the other's warmth. "Da~ Thanks again England."
England
2011-01-31T21:10:36.000Z
shifts a bit, then freezes again when the smell of burning food reaches his nose. He curses under his breath before struggling out of_
England
2011-01-31T21:10:53.000Z
Russia's grasp, and runs to the kitchen. There's more curses as he frantically tries to save the food.
Russia
2011-01-31T21:14:44.000Z
shocked when England suddenly dashes until smells the burning food. Soon hears the swearing and wonders if he is ok. "Are you alright
Russia
2011-01-31T21:14:48.000Z
England?"
England
2011-01-31T21:15:59.000Z
replies, "Uh, yes, everything's fine!", even though half the food is burnt. With a sigh, he holds the urge to pout and asks, "...Would you_
England
2011-01-31T21:16:06.000Z
like to eat out for tonight, Russia?"
Russia
2011-01-31T21:16:51.000Z
could guess what had happened and smiles before awnsering. "Da that sounds fine."
England
2011-01-31T21:18:48.000Z
sighs, a bit dismayed, and just prepares some scones. He then goes back to the living room. "Well, let's go, then. I'll treat you to some_
England
2011-01-31T21:18:52.000Z
authentic London cuisine."
Russia
2011-01-31T21:27:32.000Z
stands, straightening his coat and scarf. "Lets~ I am looking forward to it~"
England
2011-01-31T21:29:37.000Z
leads the way out. "Are you sure you don't have any preference? Meat, fish, etc.?"
Russia
2011-01-31T21:30:26.000Z
shakes his head. "Nyet. Whatever you suggest is fine~"
Russia
2011-01-31T21:30:48.000Z
(so basically my visit has turned into a date between us,da? xDD)
England
2011-01-31T21:34:40.000Z
[ PFFT, if you wish to see it that way. ]
England
2011-01-31T21:36:03.000Z
nods, thinking a bit as they walk. He points out several landmarks as they pass by. "That's the Tower of London."
Russia
2011-01-31T21:36:09.000Z
(xD thats what it feels like. we pet. played a game. now going to dinner. xDDD)\
Russia
2011-01-31T21:36:15.000Z
(*met)
Russia
2011-01-31T21:37:32.000Z
looked at the things he pointed out, paying close attention to what England said while admiring the scenery."It is nice and lively here,da?"
England
2011-01-31T21:42:34.000Z
[ xDDD ]
England
2011-01-31T21:42:57.000Z
smiles a bit. "I'm sure Moscow is the same, except a bit colder. It's usually raining here, so... you came on a good day."
Russia
2011-01-31T21:48:16.000Z
walks next to England. "Maybe. but it is so cold it is hard to idly chit chat normally."
England
2011-01-31T22:15:32.000Z
replies, "I'm sorry to hear that. What do you usually do over there, then, for fun?"
Russia
2011-01-31T22:23:49.000Z
chuckles, looking at the clear sky. "I am not saying it is bad. There is work, reading, sewing. Things like that,da? My people are big
Russia
2011-01-31T22:24:00.000Z
on family ties and such. It is nice,da?"
England
2011-01-31T22:28:39.000Z
nods. "That does sound nice... But what of sports? I imagine that it'd be too cold for football."
Russia
2011-01-31T22:33:10.000Z
nods. "Well ouside for the most part. There is ice skating and hockey. Swimming and other olympics. They are all enjoyable. Even I
Russia
2011-01-31T22:33:20.000Z
have learned to skate." ^J^
England
2011-01-31T22:36:18.000Z
opens the door of the restaurant for Russia. "Swimming? But it's so cold over there."
Russia
2011-01-31T22:38:20.000Z
walks in. "Thank you. And da it is but we have heated indoor pools. Although I would not suggest going outside with wet hair...it freezes
Russia
2011-01-31T22:38:24.000Z
very fast,da?
Russia
2011-01-31T22:38:26.000Z
"
England
2011-01-31T22:57:58.000Z
chuckles, grabbing a table for them and pulling out a chair for Russia before sitting down in the adjacent seat. "That sounds nice. I've_
England
2011-01-31T22:58:08.000Z
honestly never learned to swim," he admits, slightly embarrassed.
Russia
2011-01-31T23:11:31.000Z
blinks in surprise after sitting down. Smiles and leans back. "If I ever get the chance I will teach you then."
England
2011-01-31T23:14:29.000Z
shakes his head. "No, it's quite alright. I've never had the desire to learn." He then orders something for both of them.
Russia
2011-01-31T23:44:04.000Z
(*passed out on keyboard*...oops)
Russia
2011-01-31T23:44:50.000Z
didnt recognize what England ordered but trusted the man. He sat back and glanced around the resturaunt. "I really like this place.
Russia
2011-01-31T23:45:48.000Z
It is nice and seems fun. Good choice England~" he said while observing, but paused and looked back at England. "England is so formal...Can
Russia
2011-01-31T23:46:20.000Z
I call you Arthur?"
England
2011-01-31T23:55:02.000Z
[ Go to sleep! ;; ]
England
2011-01-31T23:55:46.000Z
smiles. "Thank you," he replies, genuinely happy that he has good company, for once. He blinks in surprise, but eventually, his smile_
England
2011-01-31T23:55:58.000Z
widens just a bit as he says, "Only if I may have the pleasure of calling you Ivan."
Russia
2011-01-31T23:59:01.000Z
blushes a little, not used to being called Ivan. "Da. I would like if you called me that actually."
England
2011-02-01T00:12:30.000Z
nods, sipping his water. "It's a lovely name. Ivan."
Russia
2011-02-01T00:19:40.000Z
blushing more. "N-nyet...not..really." sips his water too, although doing it to hide his blush. It actually made him happy to hear that.
England
2011-02-01T00:20:53.000Z
finds Russia's shyness to be a bit endearing. "It is," he insists. "It rolls off the tongue nicely."
Russia
2011-02-01T00:23:23.000Z
(you sound like a host...OH GOSH MENTAL IMAGE.)
Russia
2011-02-01T00:24:16.000Z
blushing more, putting cup down. "N-nyet...I..I mean Arthur is a nice name as well....sounds strong."
England
2011-02-01T00:30:22.000Z
[ ...FFF Hetalia Host Club YES ]
England
2011-02-01T00:32:17.000Z
hums in agreement. "It was the name of one of my kings - King Alfred the Great."
Russia
2011-02-01T00:34:41.000Z
eyes widen. "Really?...I believe that is amazing. Well there are many Ivan's in my country. One of my favorites is Ivan Pavlov. He was a
Russia
2011-02-01T00:35:08.000Z
scientist that became one of the first psychologists.~" ^J^
England
2011-02-01T00:38:07.000Z
nods. "Six members of your royalty were named Ivan, weren't they?" he asks, intrigued. "I remember Ivan the Great - that's the third one_
England
2011-02-01T00:38:54.000Z
I think." A pause, then a slightly sheepish chuckle, "Sorry. I've always found your people to be interesting."
Russia
2011-02-01T00:40:17.000Z
rubbed the back of his head sheepishly, even more embarressed. "Da...yoou are right...but I could say the same for your people. There
Russia
2011-02-01T00:40:57.000Z
are folklores and tales from here that I love. Robin Hood, king Arthur and the Round Table. I love them all,da?"
England
2011-02-01T00:58:00.000Z
chuckles, always glad to hear his culture praised. "Robin Hood, in person, was quite unbearable," he admits, vaguely remembering the man._
England
2011-02-01T00:58:10.000Z
But I enjoy the tale of King Arthur myself. I'm glad that you do, too."
Russia
2011-02-01T01:04:33.000Z
smiled."It was good...I suppose I will admit that a few of the grimms tales originated
Russia
2011-02-01T01:04:49.000Z
in my country.and they were nyet where NEAR as pleasant as how they are protrayed"
England
2011-02-01T01:16:02.000Z
nods in understanding. "Many things have changed over time," he says, pausing when their food comes. "For example, I don't think I would've_
England
2011-02-01T01:16:20.000Z
ever even dreamt of spending an evening with you like this... even just 30 years ago."
Russia was
2011-02-01T03:33:29.000Z
shocked but he nodded, agreeing. "Da. I am the same. I wouldnt either." he agreed, smiling. "We missed out,da?" ^J^
England
2011-02-01T03:57:00.000Z
begins eating his food. "We have," he agrees. "It's a shame, too. I would've enjoyed having you as a friend earlier on."
Russia
2011-02-01T07:08:44.000Z
blushes again, smiling softly as he begins eating his own food. "As would I. I like being near Arthur. It is nice....this food is good." the

smiles a bit at that. "Thank you, Ivan. You're pleasant company as well; certainly much nicer than France."

chuckled. "I believe most are better company than him,da?"
England
2011-02-01T08:03:20.000Z
nods in complete agreement as he eats his food, almost embarrassed to say, "And, well... hardly anyone praises English food, so..."
Russia is
2011-02-01T08:07:13.000Z
a little shocked, he actually did like the food. "It is good. I believe the word hearty and homey are good discriptions,da?"
England is
2011-02-01T08:18:08.000Z
glad, and genuinely pleased. "...I've never heard that, either," he admits, smiling. "Thank you, Ivan. Truly."
Russia was
2011-02-01T08:23:56.000Z
happy to have pleased the other, finishing his food not long after the comment.
England
2011-02-02T04:40:05.000Z
finishes his food a lot more slowly, and pays for the meal. "Well, since you're staying the night, allow me to give you a quick tour of
England
2011-02-02T04:40:11.000Z
London. If you want, that is."
Russia
2011-02-02T04:50:02.000Z
smiling happily while claps hands once excitedly. "I want to so~ Please"
England
2011-02-02T04:57:30.000Z
nods, then leads the way out. "We'll get on the London Eye first, then, so you can have an aerial view. I hope you like ferris wheels."
Russia
2011-02-02T04:59:13.000Z
's eyes sparkle. "A Ferris Wheel!?" he explaimed, pretty much bouncing. "I havent ever been on one but always wanted to try,da?"
England
2011-02-02T05:08:34.000Z
chuckles a bit, pointing at the large ferris wheel in the distance. "The sun should be down by the time we get there. London's absolutely
England
2011-02-02T05:08:43.000Z
gorgeous at night; you'll like it, I think," he says, leading the way.
Russia
2011-02-02T05:09:32.000Z
following behind, is really excited and practically bouncing everywhere ready to burst although he tries to hide it with a simple mask
Russia
2011-02-02T05:09:35.000Z
of a smile.
England
2011-02-02T05:18:23.000Z
soon reaches the London Eye, and true to his guess, the sun is down and it's now nighttime. The city's lights are flickering on, and he can
England
2011-02-02T05:18:52.000Z
feel his people buzzing with excitement. He and Russia are given the privilege to get a seat relatively quickly, and are soon inching toward
England
2011-02-02T05:18:59.000Z
the top. "Wait until we reach the peak."
Russia is
2011-02-02T05:40:42.000Z
glued to the glass, looking everywhere.
England
2011-02-02T05:59:03.000Z
chuckles, leaning back into his seat. "Is this your first time riding a ferris wheel, Ivan?"
Russia
2011-02-02T06:10:40.000Z
nods, still glued to the glass. "Da~I...I am very excited,da?"
England
2011-02-02T06:18:15.000Z
can't help but smile at Russia's excitement. "I'm glad. Look." He stands up, going to the window and pointing at the distance. "That's the
England
2011-02-02T06:18:19.000Z
tower that holds Big Ben."
Russia
2011-02-02T09:22:36.000Z
looked over at the big clock. "It is pretty. It is very old,da?"
Russia
2011-02-02T22:00:40.000Z
(*has always wanted to go see big ben irl*)
England
2011-02-02T22:36:09.000Z
nods, then points to another part. "The Tower of London. And over there, the Westminster Cathedral." He's very proud of what his people have
England
2011-02-02T22:36:11.000Z
made, yes.
Russia
2011-02-02T22:39:15.000Z
looked down as they got higher and slid over to England, he secretly had a fear of heights....ever since the plane incident. He shivered but
Russia
2011-02-02T22:39:36.000Z
couldn't stop looking at the scenery, thinking it was pretty amazing.
England
2011-02-03T00:01:29.000Z
blinks, noticing the shiver. "Are you cold...?"
Russia
2011-02-03T00:11:43.000Z
bites his lip, wondering if he should tell England. Well...they had become friends...
Russia
2011-02-03T00:12:30.000Z
"I....I am afraid....of being so high,da?" he saif, voice small as he moved closer to the other, blushing in shame/embarrassment .
England
2011-02-03T00:18:56.000Z
stares, a bit surprised by that, but ends up smiling. He liked this side of Russia - it was, dare he say, endearing. "Sit here," England
England says
2011-02-03T00:19:14.000Z
, patting the empty spot beside him. You can still see outside from this spot. Just don't peer out the windows so closely."
Russia
2011-02-03T00:20:41.000Z
smiles in relief, moving quickly to sit next to England, feeling better now that he felt another warm body next to his. The Russian
Russia
2011-02-03T00:21:03.000Z
continued admiring the scenery, although he made sure to stay next to England.
England
2011-02-03T00:32:49.000Z
can't resist chuckling a bit. "Have you always had acrophobia?"
Russia
2011-02-03T00:36:06.000Z
shivers, shaking his head. "N-nyet.....I once jumped out of a plane without a parachute....I have been scared ever since,da?" he answered_.
Russia
2011-02-03T00:36:16.000Z
blushing in more embarressment.
England
2011-02-03T01:12:07.000Z
decides that yes, Russia is certainly... something else. "That does sound rather dangerous... what possessed you to do that?"
Russia
2011-02-03T01:15:16.000Z
could not look at England, hiding his eyes under his hair while his ears turned red. "I...I am uncertain really...I guess I was just not
Russia
2011-02-03T01:15:47.000Z
thinking right..." he mumbled, not going to ever tell him the real reason about him thinking the snow would break his fall.
England
2011-02-03T01:34:15.000Z
just nods, looking back outside. "It's alright; we all have our moments of poor judgement. America has them all the time, for one."
Russia
2011-02-03T01:39:55.000Z
giggles, feeling better. "Da. I have to agree.........Thank you England." Russia hugged the other, feeling happy that England was
Russia
2011-02-03T01:40:37.000Z
different that he had thought the man was this whole time. He realized he really liked talking and being with the other. It was nice.
England
2011-02-03T02:09:09.000Z
stiffens, again not having expected the hug. Still, he does try to reelax and say, "You're welcome. And I've told you to call me Arthur."
Russia
2011-02-03T06:48:20.000Z
pulls away from the hug to look at something else, although he still doesn't move from England's side. "Da...thank you Arthur."
England
2011-02-03T06:49:33.000Z
nods, relaxing a bit now that he's free. "It's no problem, Ivan. I'm sorry - I would've suggested another place to go, if I'd known about
England
2011-02-03T06:49:36.000Z
your fear of heights."
Russia
2011-02-03T06:52:24.000Z
shakes his head, smiling. "Nyet~ I have always wanted to ride one of these. And it is silly to let a little fear stop you from enjoying life
Russia
2011-02-03T06:52:37.000Z
,da? I am happy we came here."
England
2011-02-03T06:59:55.000Z
smiles a bit at that. "You're right. That's an admirable way to see things."
Russia
2011-02-03T07:02:18.000Z
blushes and looks away to "admire scenery." Not wanting his face seen. "It is just something everyone should do,da? N-nothing special."
England
2011-02-03T07:18:11.000Z
replies, "Perhaps. But many people don't do it, so I believe it's something noteworthy. It's nothing to be embarrassed about."
Russia
2011-02-03T07:20:09.000Z
ears are red, not used to compliments. Screaming, fear, pointed fingers and accusations he was used to....but compliments were new and he
Russia
2011-02-03T07:20:58.000Z
couldn't help being embarrassed. "Thanks...a-again,da?....S-so what are we going to do after this?" he asked, trying to pull the
Russia
2011-02-03T07:21:16.000Z
conversation away so his blush would go down, it felt like his face was on fire.
England
2011-02-03T07:23:42.000Z
only gives compliments when and where they're due. "Hmm... Well, if you aren't too tired, we can take a short walk around London. It's rare
England
2011-02-03T07:23:53.000Z
for it not to rain here, so I'd like to enjoy the weather. It's not too cold, is it?"
Russia
2011-02-03T07:25:11.000Z
giggled at that. "That sounds wonderful. And nyet I am fine...it takes alot for me to be cold...I am Russia,da? Cold is part of who I
Russia
2011-02-03T07:25:35.000Z
am I'm afraid." he relied, although the last bit was said with saddened eyes.
England
2011-02-03T07:28:08.000Z
pauses, noticing that look. "Well... it just makes your lands that much more welcoming during the summer. I'm not a fan of the heat."
Russia
2011-02-03T07:34:05.000Z
paused and realized the other was trying to cheer him up. He smiled softly at the Englishman. "Thank you....Arthur is alot more kind than
Russia
2011-02-03T07:34:26.000Z
I thought....I am glad we are friends now,da?"
England
2011-02-03T07:41:07.000Z
blinks, reddening slightly at the compliment. "A-Ah-- no, I was... just being honest! But... I'm glad that we're friends as well, Ivan."
Russia feels
2011-02-03T07:44:13.000Z
the carriage they are in suddenly stop with a jerk. Eyes go wide and looks around in a panic as it rocks. Jumps to England, wrapping arms
Russia
2011-02-03T07:44:55.000Z
around his neck while face gets burried against his shoulder and chest, whole body shaking in fear. He didnt know it was supposed to do
Russia
2011-02-03T07:45:03.000Z
this at the top.
England
2011-02-03T07:46:46.000Z
stiffens again, lips parting in slight shock before slowly relaxing. Hesitantly, he reaches around to pat Russia on the back. "I-It's
England
2011-02-03T07:47:00.000Z
alright, Ivan... we're not going to fall."
Russia
2011-02-03T07:48:08.000Z
whimpered, gasping as he felt like he was going to fall. The only things he feared was cold, Belarus, loneliness, Belarus, and heights. But
Russia
2011-02-03T07:48:56.000Z
he feared each of those things greatly. The large nation made a choking sound as he continued to cling to England, feeling dizzy with fear
Russia
2011-02-03T07:49:49.000Z
while tears sprung up inhis eyes.
England
2011-02-03T07:54:03.000Z
soon begins rubbing Russia's back, just briefly remembering that he'd done this for America, when the boy was young. "We're not going to
England
2011-02-03T07:54:28.000Z
fall, Ivan. I promise," he soothes, hesitating briefly before stroking Russia's hair. "You'll be alright."
Russia
2011-02-03T07:55:28.000Z
relaxes for the hair petting, slowly getting over his sudden panic attack. After a minute he sits up, sniffing while wiping the tears that
Russia
2011-02-03T07:56:35.000Z
are still falling a bit, away. "T-thank you A-arthur...I am sorry...I dont know what came over m-me..." he apologized, now having time to
Russia
2011-02-03T07:56:45.000Z
feel flustered over what he had done.
England
2011-02-03T08:00:42.000Z
smiles reassuringly, wiping away a tear that Russia had missed. "You don't need to apologize, Ivan. I would've reacted worse if we were
England
2011-02-03T08:00:46.000Z
swimming. It's fine."
Russia
2011-02-03T08:02:03.000Z
sniffs again and forces himself to completly calm down, still feeling ashamed though. "I still apologize. I did not mean to cling to you
Russia
2011-02-03T08:02:42.000Z
like that....I..it just made me feel safe,da?" he admitted, looking out at the scenery again although he made sure to scoot close to England
Russia
2011-02-03T08:02:44.000Z
.
England
2011-02-03T08:06:07.000Z
shakes his head. "I've told you, it's fine. I... prefer it over having you keep yourself guarded around me." A pause, "It's nice..."
Russia was
2011-02-03T08:07:20.000Z
surprised, he normally kept his mask on in front of others, for various reasons. But since he had been with England he had dropped it. The
Russia
2011-02-03T08:08:02.000Z
nation wondered when he had gotten so comfortable around the other, not even his sisters knew of some parts of him. "I...I am glad...I
Russia
2011-02-03T08:08:52.000Z
normally hide these embarrassing parts of me..."he replied truthfully, before eeping as the carriage starte moving again, making its desent.
Russia
2011-02-03T08:09:07.000Z
He had grabbed England's arm and shivered, still fearful.
England
2011-02-03T08:14:34.000Z
tightened his hold on Russia slightly, trying to reassure him. "I don't think it to be embarrassing. It's... It's nice. I feel like I'm
England
2011-02-03T08:14:43.000Z
friends with Ivan Braginski rather than just Russia."
Russia is
2011-02-03T08:18:15.000Z
calmer than before, although he would keep shivering until they got to the ground again. He felt his face heat up at the other nation's
Russia
2011-02-03T08:19:35.000Z
words. "I....I feel like I am friends with Arthur Kirkland instead of just England as well....it is a nice feeling,da?" he giggled, unable
Russia
2011-02-03T08:19:55.000Z
to help hugging the Englishman for a second.
England is
2011-02-03T08:27:20.000Z
slightly used to the impromptu hugs, by now, and only stiffens fractionally when it happens. "Well... once we get down, Arthur Kirkland will
England
2011-02-03T08:27:27.000Z
treat you to London's best bakery as an apology."
Russia
2011-02-03T08:28:33.000Z
eyes widened. He secretly loved sweets and pastries. It excited him to find they were going to a bakery. He tried to hide it but it was
Russia
2011-02-03T08:29:23.000Z
obvious he was happy about this. Really happy. "Thank you Arthur. It sounds great." he said aloud, although inside he was rolling around and
Russia
2011-02-03T08:29:45.000Z
yelling happy things in Russian like an idiot. ^J^
England
2011-02-03T08:51:24.000Z
nods, content to watch their descent before the doors open. He steps out first, and offers a hand to help Russia out. "Careful."
Russia
2011-02-03T08:52:38.000Z
blushed when he took the hand, mumbling a thank you. But he was to excited about the bakery to really pay attention.
England
2011-02-03T09:03:24.000Z
nods, releasing Russia's hand and leading the way to the bakery. "It's actually owned by an Austrian, which explains its fame and taste.
England
2011-02-03T09:03:27.000Z
I think you'll like it."
Russia
2011-02-03T09:05:46.000Z
followed close behind, resembling a baby chick a bit as he barely contained his excitement. He hoped they had some strawberry stuff.
England
2011-02-03T18:58:57.000Z
soon reaches the bakery, and opens the door for Russia. "Choose whatever you'd like. It's all delicious."
Russia
2011-02-03T19:10:22.000Z
thanked him while walking in, before staring. Everything looked delicious and he didnt think he could decide easily. He thought he died and
Russia
2011-02-03T19:10:56.000Z
went to heaven when he noticed the strawberry centered section. He went over and looked at the items under the glass, resembling a littl
Russia
2011-02-03T19:11:03.000Z
e kid in a toy store.
England
2011-02-03T23:36:52.000Z
chuckles, following. "I'm presuming you really like strawberries?"
Russia
2011-02-03T23:38:28.000Z
flushed and fidgeted, looking away. "I....da...I like strawberries...anything strawberry flavored as well...." Russia replied, embarressed.
England
2011-02-03T23:39:01.000Z
hums, looking at the assortment of pastries. "Feel free to get as many as you like."
Russia
2011-02-03T23:39:59.000Z
would not get too many. he glanced through the assortment before deciding on a cute strawberry shortcake along with a chocolate mouse that
Russia
2011-02-03T23:40:52.000Z
had strawberry glaze. He hadnt seen something that looked so cute and delicious at the same time before.
England
2011-02-03T23:43:01.000Z
purchases it for him, as well as something small for himself. "Do they have these over in Russia?"
Russia
2011-02-03T23:47:28.000Z
tilted his head, thinking. "We have pastries...but not so much fanciful like this. And the really good stuff is expensive or hard to find.
Russia
2011-02-03T23:48:05.000Z
Although the pies and things are good. I have also not had the luxury of sweets in a long time....busy with work and things,da?" ^J^
England
2011-02-03T23:48:54.000Z
nods, leading Russia to a table before sitting down. "You ought to visit Austria, then. He has the best pastries." France too, but...
Russia
2011-02-03T23:52:00.000Z
sat and glanced around, noticing soe strange looks they were getting and wondering why. That is until he relized a few of them were just out
Russia
2011-02-03T23:52:24.000Z
of fear. Russia sighed, how was it he could make people afraid by just being there? He never understood it.
England
2011-02-03T23:59:08.000Z
frowns, giving a quick, reprimanding glare to those who are staring. They quickly turn, leaving the two in peace. "Sorry; they're not
England
2011-02-03T23:59:55.000Z
usually like this."
Russia
2011-02-04T00:25:46.000Z
smiled sadly at England. "Nyet....I am used to it. Things like this follow me everywhere....it is normal,da? If you let everything bother
Russia
2011-02-04T00:26:32.000Z
you, you cannot progress in life.~" he giggled, although the truth was it always hurt him a bit. Being feared was good for a nation but.
Russia
2011-02-04T00:26:50.000Z
.....being feared by EVERYONE...and all the time could get pretty taxing.
England
2011-02-04T04:31:26.000Z
hummed, thinking. It was understandably different from being feared when you -wanted- to be feared, as he was back during his imperial_
England
2011-02-04T04:32:00.000Z
days. Unable to help but feel sorry for Russia, he says, "If it helps any - and I'm sure it won't, at least not very much -, I don't think_
England
2011-02-04T04:32:09.000Z
you're frightening at all."
Russia
2011-02-04T12:27:48.000Z
(>< *had passed out on keyboard*)
Russia
2011-02-04T12:29:41.000Z
eyes widened. England wasnt afraid of him? "R-really?...but I am so big and dangerous....and sometimes I can be cruel,da?" he argued. He
Russia was
2011-02-04T12:30:13.000Z
incredibly happy England wasnt afraid of him, but he also knew that he COULD be dangerous so England should be wary on some level.
England
2011-02-04T18:21:27.000Z
chuckles, looking quite amused by that. "You forget who you're talking with, Ivan. I was once the British Empire - there is probably no
England
2011-02-04T18:21:54.000Z
level of cruelty that I -haven't- reached. But, as nations, I do believe we're all dangerous, at least to some extent." He begins eating
England
2011-02-04T18:22:54.000Z
his pastry, continuing, "I'm well aware of how powerful and cruel you can be, but you're not the only one who's been at that height."
Russia
2011-02-04T18:24:37.000Z
had never personal never personally seen England back then but he had heard many stories. Ivan guessed they had been true. He picked up his
Russia
2011-02-04T18:24:56.000Z
chocolate mouse and bit into it, only to moan in delight, it was SOO good.
Russia
2011-02-04T18:51:52.000Z
(forgot to put in my dialogue...will do that next post then...*headdesk*)
England
2011-02-04T22:23:09.000Z
smiles slightly, taking a bite out of his own pastry. "Do you like it?"
Russia
2011-02-04T22:24:50.000Z
nods enthusiastically, too caught up in eating and the taste to reply.
England
2011-02-04T22:36:57.000Z
chuckles, watching the other nation for a moment before turning his eyes to his citizens. "Feel free to get seconds, then."
Russia
2011-02-04T22:39:03.000Z
finished his mouse, having long forgotten the fearful glances from those around. "Ahh..it is so tasty,da? I am jealous of England for
Russia
2011-02-04T22:39:51.000Z
having such a great place so close. I do not need seconds though...i am already accused of being fat. I would rather not make those

accusations true by eating to many sweets."
England
2011-02-04T23:15:05.000Z
Finishes his pastry as well. "Feel free to visit whenever you have time. We'll frequent this place."
Russia
2011-02-04T23:16:47.000Z
smiled happily. "I would like that. Thank you Arthur." Ivan soon finished his other pastry before glancing around, once again noticing
Russia
2011-02-04T23:16:54.000Z
the strange looks he was getting.
England
2011-02-04T23:20:35.000Z
Wipes his fingers on a napkin before staring back at the people, making them turn away. "Don't mind them."
Russia
2011-02-04T23:23:52.000Z
shrugged. "It is fine. What are we doing now Arthur?" he asked, wanting to change the subjext.
Russia
2011-02-04T23:24:01.000Z
(*subject.)
England
2011-02-04T23:31:22.000Z
Thinks. "Well... The night is still young. Is there anything in particular you'd like to do or go see?"
Russia
2011-02-04T23:36:23.000Z
tilted his head and thought about it. "Hmm...not in particular...anywhere you want to go is fine with me. I am just glad to spend time with
Russia
2011-02-04T23:36:33.000Z
Arthur~" ^J^
England
2011-02-04T23:41:39.000Z
Reddens slightly, not used to hearing much things. "W-well... I suppose we can stop by Buckingham Palace. Have you ever gone in?"
Russia
2011-02-04T23:51:34.000Z
shook his head. "Nyet. My boss has but I have not."
England
2011-02-04T23:57:45.000Z
Stands up. "Then let's go. I don't mean to boast, but it's one of the most gorgeous palaces in the world. You'll like it, I hope."
Russia
2011-02-05T00:03:23.000Z
stood as well, following the other. "I am sure I will love it." he replied sincerly.
England
2011-02-05T00:05:21.000Z
Nods, weaving through the London night crowd and leading the way. "Do they still have palaces in Russia?"
Russia
2011-02-05T00:13:16.000Z
nodded. "Da. Although we nyet longer have royalty. They are bueatiful, although the design differs greatly from that of your homelands."
England
2011-02-05T00:25:45.000Z
Nods. "I'd like to see them one day. I don't remember much about your architecture, but I do know that some are quite beautiful."
Russia
2011-02-05T00:26:56.000Z
smiled at the compliment. "Da...I am quite proud of alot of things my people have done. They work hard."
England
2011-02-05T00:33:17.000Z
slows down a bit so he doesn't lose Russia in the crowd. "They do. You ought to be proud of them."
Russia
2011-02-05T00:35:34.000Z
sticks close to England, not wanting to get lost. "You should be proud also. Your people have done many amazing things.
Russia
2011-02-05T00:35:36.000Z
"
England
2011-02-05T00:39:29.000Z
nods, smiling. "I'm know. I am, every day; I couldn't have wished for better citizens."
Russia
2011-02-05T00:43:10.000Z
chuckled, suprised by how similar the two seemed and he had never noticed.
England
2011-02-05T00:45:08.000Z
finally arrives at Buckingham Palace, leading the way in with little trouble. The doors are opened for them, and he steps inside, turning
England
2011-02-05T00:45:20.000Z
around to face Russia. "Welcome to Buckingham Palace, Ivan."
Russia
2011-02-05T00:47:03.000Z
looked around as they entered, amazed by the structure. "It is beautiful Arthur."
England
2011-02-05T00:49:58.000Z
nods, eagerly leading Russia deeper into the palace. "Her Majesty should be around somewhere, but I doubt we'll run into her."
Russia
2011-02-05T00:54:59.000Z
tailed him close behind, curiously looking at everything they passed. "That is fine...I would probably scare her." ^J^
England
2011-02-05T00:55:55.000Z
chuckles. "I doubt that; Her Majesty isn't easily intimidated."
Russia
2011-02-05T00:56:57.000Z
raised an eyebrow. "Well i suppose that makes sense...being a leader and everything."
England
2011-02-05T00:59:07.000Z
hums in agreement. "No one knows that you're Russia right now, either. You're just Ivan Braginski, my guest. there isn't any need for fear."
Russia
2011-02-05T01:01:03.000Z
smiled big at that, liking the sound of it. "Da....but wouldnt that just make you Arthur Kirkland...my host."
England thinks
2011-02-05T01:02:30.000Z
, then nods. "I suppose so, yes. It's more comfortable, isn't it?"
Russia
2011-02-05T01:13:13.000Z
nodded in agreement. "It is...not worrying about national ties or things while just talking as people...it is nice,da?"
England
2011-02-05T01:14:12.000Z
agrees, stepping out into the patio, which overlooked a vast rose garden. "It... makes me wish I were human, sometimes."
Russia
2011-02-05T01:17:06.000Z
stepped out with him, admiring the beautiful flowers. He paused at the other's words before nodding again. "....There are many times in
Russia
2011-02-05T01:17:35.000Z
which i wished to be human....but I suppose all nations have moments where they feel that way,da?"
England
2011-02-05T01:20:36.000Z
nods, sitting down to rest on a chair. "I suppose. It's a shame, too; humans wish for immortality, while we wish for mortality."
Russia
2011-02-05T01:23:35.000Z
chuckled while taking a chair next to him. "I believe that it is because we always want what we cannot have. We nations wish to be human...
Russia
2011-02-05T01:24:18.000Z
to be true to only ourselves while living our lives...while humans wish for immortality. For the chance to make a big difference in the
Russia
2011-02-05T01:24:50.000Z
world, be it good OR bad. It is just something that has always been,da?"
England
2011-02-05T01:27:22.000Z
blinks, allowing the words to sink in before offering a small smile. "You're right. No one could've phrased it any better."
Russia
2011-02-05T01:28:42.000Z
looked sadly at the flowers. "I have spent many a hour pondering over it...I have truly wished to be human...to make friends...sometimes
Russia
2011-02-05T01:29:34.000Z
even to die....It gets very lonely being a nation...but a nation without ones to love or someone to love them I think is even more lonely...
Russia
2011-02-05T01:30:28.000Z
...a loneliness like a drowning ocean...or a snowy tundra...swallowing you up to where you cant breathe..." Russia's eyes were kinda distant
Russia
2011-02-05T01:30:42.000Z
as if he was lost in memories he tried to forget.
England
2011-02-05T01:32:07.000Z
hesitates before reaching out to place a hand on Russia's shoulder. He offers a small, almost melancholy smile as he says, "I know how you
England
2011-02-05T01:32:21.000Z
feel. That's how I felt, just a few centuries ago. But, seeing you now... I think you've dealt with it wonderfully."
Russia was
2011-02-05T01:34:50.000Z
shocked out of his thoughts by the hand on his shoulder. Ivan looked over at England then, feeling closer to the man than before. "Thank you
Russia
2011-02-05T01:35:12.000Z
....I have to say that I am envious of you Arthur."
England
2011-02-05T01:41:27.000Z
blinks, surprised. "For what? The last time I checked, I didn't have any envy-worthy qualities."
Russia
2011-02-05T01:48:16.000Z
looked at him seriously. "You have many friends and people who care for you...people who would be sad if you were to vanish...America...
Russia
2011-02-05T01:49:12.000Z
Canada...even France would be upset if you were gone, even if he denies it...I am jealous of that....although I guess you probably think
Russia
2011-02-05T01:49:19.000Z
that is me being creepy..."
England
2011-02-05T01:49:58.000Z
scoffs, shaking his head. "You're mistaken. Alfred..." He pauses, frowning, "Alfred... would be glad if I were gone, I think. There would
England
2011-02-05T01:50:19.000Z
be one less person to nag him about everything. Canada wouldn't notice, and France... would throw a party, I'd imagine. We've been trying
England
2011-02-05T01:50:34.000Z
to get rid of each other for years. It's silly to delude myself into thinking that I'd be missed, honestly."
Russia
2011-02-05T01:52:18.000Z
shook his head. "You are lying to yourself and you know it. Alfred cares for you as does Canada...dont try to deny it. And France would
Russia
2011-02-05T01:53:07.000Z
never truely be happy to see you gone..I can tell that you both just like arguing and fighting for the thrill and sake of it. I have been
Russia
2011-02-05T01:53:40.000Z
watching everyone for so long...you learn to read people...and I have to say you are quite the book."
England
2011-02-05T01:55:09.000Z
chuckles wryly. "No, it's the truth. I drove Alfred away from me, and... I won't fool myself into thinking that he'll ever come back. Not
England
2011-02-05T01:55:57.000Z
without me begging. Canada finds more delight in France, and... no, you misunderstand. France -would- be happy." He leans back into his
England
2011-02-05T01:56:31.000Z
seat, sighing. "There's always pages and pages more, Ivan. A layer underneath another layer."
Russia
2011-02-05T01:57:27.000Z
smiled at him. "Afred is like a bird...he would have flown away from whomever had him. He got out on his own but that doesnt mean he
Russia
2011-02-05T01:58:00.000Z
doesnt like you. Have you ever noticed that in the meetings he ALWAYS says something that he knows you will notice? Or that he always sits
Russia
2011-02-05T01:58:45.000Z
by you and makes sure to anger you somehow? He is like a child trying to get a parents attention...it is rather cute. And France is just a
Russia
2011-02-05T01:59:16.000Z
bit of a simpleton...but trust me...he would miss you if you were gone. If anything just to have you to argue with."
England
2011-02-05T02:03:00.000Z
disagrees completely. "He says whatever tickles his fancy. Whether or not I notice has nothing to do with it." A pause, then a sad smile,
England
2011-02-05T02:03:29.000Z
"Alfred's... not a child anymore. He's grown up, and I'm not longer his brother, or his caretaker of any sort. He's just... another nation.
England
2011-02-05T02:03:51.000Z
He'll be relieved with me off his back, trust me."
Russia
2011-02-05T02:07:50.000Z
sighed. "You can tell yourself that all you want...but tell me this. Who was the first one to your side each time you got sick? Who, even
Russia
2011-02-05T02:08:15.000Z
though he played it off and acted like it didnt matter, stayed there till you got better?"
England
2011-02-05T02:14:54.000Z
pauses, pursing his lips. "...It's a mixture of his hero complex and for the sake of international relations. He'd do that for anyone."
Russia
2011-02-05T02:15:51.000Z
frowns. "Nyet he wouldnt...if it was me he would laugh and throw a communist is dead party. He worries about you and tries to get your
Russia
2011-02-05T02:16:29.000Z
attention...I just wish you would see that before it is too late...I would give anything to have someone like that for me....I have my
Russia
2011-02-05T02:17:10.000Z
sisters....but Ukraine has been forbidden to see me...and Belarus has an unhealthy obsession with me even though we are siblings...and even
Russia
2011-02-05T02:17:23.000Z
her boss doesnt want her around me too much..."
England
2011-02-05T02:18:07.000Z
rolls his eyes. "Perhaps a century ago, but not today. He'd sooner care for you than trouble himself with me. But... I suppose I deserve it.
England
2011-02-05T02:18:37.000Z
I've been too selfish with him, in the past. And even today, I want to keep him to myself." He closes his eyes, sighing. "I'd like to hold
England
2011-02-05T02:19:09.000Z
him one more time, at least..." Pauses, embarrassed at having said that, "But, that aside, you've plenty of people who care for you too.
England
2011-02-05T02:19:22.000Z
I, for one, do."
Russia
2011-02-05T02:24:14.000Z
didnt know how to get the Englishman to understand. The man was notoriously stubborn so it made sense. But when he said the last bit Ivan
Russia
2011-02-05T02:25:16.000Z
knew his eyes must have been big as saucers. "I....th..thank you Arthur...I care for you too." he replied softly, guessing they could both
Russia
2011-02-05T02:25:22.000Z
be stubborn fools together.
England
2011-02-05T02:29:18.000Z
smiles a bit, finally, at that. "You're welcome, Ivan. And thank you, too."
Russia
2011-02-05T02:31:31.000Z
suddenly giggled, but the giggle soon turned to laughter. he didnt know why but this situation seemed funny to him.
England
2011-02-05T02:39:56.000Z
doesn't know why Russia's laughing, or why he's tempted to laugh along. "I suppose we've much more in common that we thought."
Russia was
2011-02-05T02:42:27.000Z
still chuckling. "D-da...I wonder what took us so long to become friends?"
England
2011-02-05T02:47:09.000Z
nods, agreeing. "It feels like too much time was wasted."
Russia
2011-02-05T02:48:51.000Z
takes a breath to calm himself again. "If there is one thing we nations have to much of...it is time."
England
2011-02-05T03:02:14.000Z
chuckles. "I cannot agree any more than that, Ivan."
Russia
2011-02-05T03:07:25.000Z
leaned back in his chair, sad that he was leaving to go back home the next day. He hoped he could come and visit more often after this.
England
2011-02-05T03:08:28.000Z
would gladly welcome Russia any time!
Russia
2011-02-05T03:09:22.000Z
stand after a minute and stretche, taking one last look at the garden before turning to England. "What else to see?"
England thinks
2011-02-05T03:13:19.000Z
, also standing up. "Well... there's the rest of the palace, but I've already shown you the best parts. We can either tour
England
2011-02-05T03:13:26.000Z
London a bit more, or go back home. Which do you prefer?"
Russia
2011-02-05T03:16:15.000Z
thought about it before choosing the second. "Let us go home after...I want to spend time with just Arthur rather than England."
England
2011-02-05T03:21:51.000Z
nods, smiling a bit and leading the way out of the palace. "That's fine. Is there anything you want me to get, on the way back?"
Russia
2011-02-05T03:24:55.000Z
shook his head. "Nyet. I am fine like this."
England
2011-02-05T03:25:46.000Z
again walks slowly, so as not to lose Russia in the crowd. "If you ever get a bit hungry, I'll make some scones."
Russia
2011-02-05T03:28:20.000Z
nodded thanks for the offer. "I will, thank you for taking care of me Arthur."
England
2011-02-05T03:32:04.000Z
glances back. "I'm not taking care of you; I'm just being a good host. And besides, I... you're a friend, now; I wouldn't treat you in
England
2011-02-05T03:32:08.000Z
any other manner."
Russia
2011-02-05T03:33:37.000Z
smiled softly, walking a little closer to England, partly to not get lost but partly beasue he wanted to. "I can still thank you though." he
Russia
2011-02-05T03:33:55.000Z
said teasingly, enjoying this light talk.
England
2011-02-05T03:35:27.000Z
hums, not at all minding. "Then I can thank you in return, for being such lovely company."
Russia
2011-02-05T03:37:51.000Z
smiled. "It is my pleasure~."
England
2011-02-05T03:43:40.000Z
reaches his home, unlocking the door and opening it for Russia. "After you."
Russia
2011-02-05T03:45:01.000Z
walked in with a bow, pleased by Englands good manners."
England
2011-02-05T03:51:59.000Z
walks in after him and closes the door. "I'll go prepare the guest bedroom really quickly. You can watch the telly, or browse the cabinet
England
2011-02-05T03:52:06.000Z
beside it to see if there's a film that you want to watch."
Russia
2011-02-05T04:29:39.000Z
nodded before going to sit on the couch and look through the Tv. He wondered what kind of shows or films were on.
England
2011-02-05T04:38:15.000Z
comes back a few minutes later, and sits down a respectable distance from him. "Have you found anything interesting, yet?"
Russia
2011-02-05T04:39:41.000Z
shook his head, sweatdropping a little. "Nyet...I have some trouble understanding some of these shows."
England
2011-02-05T04:40:59.000Z
hums, thinking. "Well... it's an American cartoon, but... we could watch Anastasia...?"
Russia
2011-02-05T04:44:01.000Z
stiffened, his eyes going wide while his stomach lurched. He hadnt heard that name in so long....
Russia
2011-02-05T04:44:26.000Z
(nice. way to bring up shitty past England. )
Russia
2011-02-05T04:44:35.000Z
(xD)
England
2011-02-05T04:46:53.000Z
[ L-LMAO oh I am terrible ]
England
2011-02-05T04:47:25.000Z
immediately realizes his mistake, and immediately feels guilty. "Ah-- I-I'm sorry, I meant... something else..."
Russia
2011-02-05T04:48:10.000Z
held up a hand, he was shaking and trying to hide it. "N..nyet...I..I just..
Russia
2011-02-05T04:48:25.000Z
" he gasped out, feeling like he had been hit in the gut.
England
2011-02-05T04:50:47.000Z
frowns, trying to think of a way to remedy this. He was never too good at comforting people, though, and could do nothing but
England
2011-02-05T04:50:58.000Z
hesitantly hug Russia. "I'm sorry, Ivan, I really didn't mean to..."
Russia
2011-02-05T04:54:10.000Z
closed his eyes and forced himself to relax into the hug, ending up clinging to the other. His thoughts and memories flashing past his eyes
Russia
2011-02-05T04:54:26.000Z
as he remembered a beautiful girl who he loved playing with.
England thinks
2011-02-05T04:58:37.000Z
, allowing this clinging. "I'm sorry. I... It was a stupid mistake, I shouldn't have suggested it..."
Russia
2011-02-05T05:00:25.000Z
leaned his head on England's shoulder, not able to stop a few of the tears that fell. He took a shaky breath and tried to calm down. He
Russia
2011-02-05T05:01:03.000Z
normally forced himself not to think about it, locking the memories up. Ivan continued to cling to England, trying to forget what he had
Russia
2011-02-05T05:01:48.000Z
been forced to remember. "It...it is alright...I..I should not get so emotional...we outlive humans all the time...such a thing shouldnt
Russia
2011-02-05T05:01:54.000Z
bother me anymore..."
England
2011-02-05T05:03:21.000Z
frowns, stroking Ivan's hair. "...She wouldn't want you to be crying, I'd imagine. Though, you're not completely alone in your grief. I
England
2011-02-05T05:03:58.000Z
miss Elizabeth all the time. Elizabeth, and Victoria, and Churchill... all great men and women that I'm honored to have met."
Russia
2011-02-05T05:07:53.000Z
felt more tears prickle at his eyes. "But you never betrayed them..." he spoke softly, almost barely in hearing range.
England
2011-02-05T05:10:52.000Z
hums. "You're right. The worst I've probably done was... to Catherine of Aragon. But I'm certain that she isn't angry at you, Ivan."
Russia was
2011-02-05T05:11:57.000Z
shaking badly, how could he be forgiven for what he had done to her? Even if it had been at the whim of his people...he had essentially done
Russia
2011-02-05T05:12:33.000Z
it himself. The big nation felt like the monster he was always said to be.
England
2011-02-05T05:16:36.000Z
sighs, trying to think of a way to make Russia feel better. He continued stroking the other's hair, saying, "She understands. You didn't
England
2011-02-05T05:16:48.000Z
do it because you wanted to. We're slaves to our people; if they want something, we have to do it."
Russia
2011-02-05T05:17:20.000Z
(*is having an innder debate on who Russia should fall in love with. England or Amerika.* DDx so hard!)
Russia
2011-02-05T05:18:11.000Z
knew what England said was true. The tall nation sighed, leaning into the petting. It felt nice and soothing.
England
2011-02-05T05:19:02.000Z
[ Pfff xD ]
Russia
2011-02-05T05:20:14.000Z
(help me deciiiideee. D8 whoever he is with i have to know if you guys are ok with the pairing. Dx)

England
2011-02-05T05:23:01.000Z
draws Russia a bit closer, offering him whatever comfort he could. "You know, if you want to cry, you shouldn't hold yourself back. If I

were Anastasia, I'd want you to smile when you think of me."
Russia
2011-02-05T05:24:23.000Z
took a breath and forced himself to calm down. "Da....you are right...I..I need to smile not cry." he repeated, sitting up and wiping his

eyes.
England
2011-02-05T05:26:25.000Z
smiles slightly, reaching out to wipe a stray tear. "Of course I'm right. Chin up, Ivan. Make her proud to have been Russian."
Russia
2011-02-05T05:27:11.000Z
(*feels terrible for the drama this will bring but chooses America*)
England
2011-02-05T05:27:47.000Z
[ Haha, don't feel bad~ ]
Russia
2011-02-05T05:28:06.000Z
sniffs and shakes his head, trying to clear his thoughts. "D..Da..I will...Thank you England." he smiled, although it still hurt a bit.
England
2011-02-05T05:28:49.000Z
nods, drawing his hand back. "You'll learn to get over it, soon. It'll be alright."
Russia
2011-02-05T05:30:37.000Z
nods back. "Da...I will. For her sake and mine,da?....You really know how to make me feel better Arthur...I think it is a gift."
England
2011-02-05T05:38:51.000Z
blinks, slightly taken aback. "Ah-- n-no, it's not. I usually make people feel worse."
Russia
2011-02-05T05:39:39.000Z
shook his head. "nyet. You have only made me feel better since I have gotten here."
England
2011-02-05T05:40:08.000Z
shakes his head. "I've made you feel your worst, too. I think that balances out whatever good thing I've done."
Russia
2011-02-05T05:43:48.000Z
gave England an unreadable look. "You have actually made me FEEL emotions...until now i was beginning to think I had lost all emotions and
Russia was
2011-02-05T05:43:52.000Z
numb...
Russia
2011-02-05T05:43:55.000Z
"
England
2011-02-05T05:46:03.000Z
frowns a bit at that. "...I'm glad, then. You're much too pleasant of a person to be left in that state..."
Russia
2011-02-05T05:47:13.000Z
smiles sadly. "I believe there are many that would beg to differ...but I am glad. To feel pain means i can feel happiness as well." ^J^
England is
2011-02-05T05:53:09.000Z
content with that answer. "I hope you can become happier in the future, then. You've lots of people that care for you, Ivan, whether
England
2011-02-05T05:53:11.000Z
you know it or not."
Russia
2011-02-05T05:54:15.000Z
wondered if that was really true, and finding himself hoping that it was. "Thank you...and da I will. but you need to know there are many
Russia
2011-02-05T05:54:21.000Z
that care for you as well."
England
2011-02-05T06:15:35.000Z
hums, refusing to answer that. "Would some fresh scones help cheer you up?"
Russia
2011-02-05T06:18:27.000Z
smiled sleepily. "I think what I need is rest...I feel like falling over now,da?"
England
2011-02-05T06:19:19.000Z
chuckles, standing up. "Alright. Let me show you to your room, then."
Russia
2011-02-05T06:19:23.000Z
(ment to have 'like a sack of bricks,' between now and da)
Russia
2011-02-05T06:19:32.000Z
(damn you plurk)
England
2011-02-05T06:19:43.000Z
[ Pff xD It's okay, I got the basic meaning =u= ]
Russia
2011-02-05T06:19:51.000Z
got up to follow him, feeling exaushted.
England
2011-02-05T06:20:18.000Z
leads Russia to his room, a nice, beautifully decorated guest room directly across the hall from his. "Here you go. There's
England
2011-02-05T06:20:34.000Z
a bathroom in there, and I'm in the room right in front of you, so call me if you need anything."
Russia
2011-02-05T06:23:13.000Z
smiled and hugged him sleepily before tottering towards the bed, suddenly so tired he could hardly stand. "Thank you England...I will."
England
2011-02-05T06:23:57.000Z
smiles slightly. "Goodnight," he says, gently closing the door before moving to go to sleep himself.
Russia
2011-02-05T06:28:15.000Z
barely fell on the bed before he passed out, feeling so so tired all the sudden.
England
2011-02-05T06:31:24.000Z
stays up for a few more hours, before going to sleep himself.
Russia
2011-02-05T06:36:35.000Z
