he shares. Or rather, he will show up to make sure of it.

believes that sharing with Korea is a very debatable affair. Very.

just watch him pound the mochi like a puppy and hope he shares. He may even help make it because he's that nice.

notices Korea and stares judgingly for a moment. If he must share, Korea should definitely help.

can help roll it! He can make tteok, and that's sort of the same! After all, mochi is just Japan'ls tteok copy!

it's a good thing he can't read minds because he gets the sudden feeling he should make Korea turn the mochi in the mortar. Yup.

wouldn't ever do such a thing. After all, he does want to eat it too! (even in tteok is better).

sighs and rests the mallet on the ground. "Shall we roll it now, Korea?" He has decided to be charitable today.

jumps up. "Yes! And I'll show you all my amazing skill!"

"Well, as long as it tastes good," he muses warily. And as long as Korea didn't try to grab his chest.

not grab his chest! Not yet, anyways. Food is at stake.

dusts the mochi with powder and hands Korea the roller~

takes it! "Alright, watch and learn from the originater~"

to teach Korea the actual origins. e x e ...

knows the origins! Because he made it!

keeps telling himself to be patient.. Korea will figure it out someday! Although he's not putting his hopes on.

nothing to figure out because he already just knows.

debates shipping Korea home via sealed box. Instead, he sticks a recently moulded mochi in the Korean's mouth.

chews it, panicking slightly. People die choking on mochi, after all!

has no complaints over this.

manages not to die from choking. In fact, he enjoys the mochi. It was actually good!

pities this but gives Korea a glass of water to wash it down.

accepts it and drinks it. He then says, "Where have you been?"

shaping another mochi carefully in his hands, peering up at Korea. "I don't know what you mean-- I have been at my house.."

shakes his head. "You didn't give me a present on my birthday!" he looks hurt that he didn't.

shakes his head. "We've never liked each other well enough. I wouldn't know you to give you a birthday present, even if I wanted to."

huffs. "You should still get me something! And maybe I'll give you cake!"

stares at the ground 'lest he do something ill-advised. "Ah. Well, I am giving you mochi."

nods. "That's true! But you were making it anyways!"

shrugs a shoulder. "Then you'll have to wait until next year to see if I give you a present. It already passed, didn't it?"

nods. "Yes but you're only a few days late! I can accept late presents!"

just stares hard at Korea.. "What would you want?"

shrugs. "Umm." He thinks for a moment then grins. "I want unrestricted access to your breasts!"

"No." Auto-denied.

huffs. "Why? Okay, okay. Then...oh! Where's Pochi?"

wary of calling out his dog. "... He's around.. You're not going to take him, are you?"

shrugs. "I do like him!"

bristles. "You don't just ask for other people's dogs. I will get you a rabbit if you want, but you cannot have Pochi."

waves a hand. "Okay, okay. Either I can touch your chest whenever I want, or I can take Pochi to my house whenever I want!"

"I do not like either of those choices..."

nods. "Then get me a really good present!" he says.

considers giving Korea some of Italy's leftover pasta.

demand something better.

could get Korea some of America's blue cakes, perhaps.

does like things that America makes...

still thinks they're radioactive, but as long as Korea is happy and off his back...

that's more of a present from America, though!

if Korea would be appeased by a Kitty-chan doll. China seemed to like them.

does like that too!

"Then, that will be your present this year," he stands up and walks to his room to retrieve one of the dolls lying in his room.

accept it, then. "You're really going to give me that?"

tilts his head at Korea. "I thought you wanted it," he holds it at arm's length at the male. "A Kitty-chan."
