this is stupidly stereotypical! Plus, the leprechaun?!
tried those in America one time.. They aren't that bad really... But he agreed the leprechaun was going a little far.
Arthur to be more outraged by this! He refuses to be belittled by bland cereal and patronisingly colourful mallow pieces!
would be, though the cereal was marketed at children, so they had to have coloury things that were much too sweet.
can't believe they are marketing offensive material to kids! He will not stand for this at all!
doesn't really think of that as offensive, Declan was just slightly over-reacting to this..
NOT OVERREACTING! This is serious! Just like Scotland no doubt feels over his representation of the Scotsman in the Simpsons!
that it could be worse. Englishmen were normally represented as evil and the bad guys in most American movies. BT
that is true, but generally they are hot.
facepalms. LOOKS WHERE BESIDES THE POINT.
doesn't think so. Sure, Irishmen are known for their second-to-none musical skills and angelic voices, but attractive? Not always.
doesn't really think the looks thing had any bearing here. It was just come American that came up with a slightly 'witty' idea of putting a
cartoon badly implied Irish stereo type to market to children.
still thinks it's insulting. It doesn't help matters whenever he visits the US that kids chase him.
...kind of... wants to see that...
glares at him. It won't happen again. He wears disguises now, and uses a very bad Alabama accent.
still doesn't get it. He listens in on them and just says. "I don't see the problem. The kids like the little Irish dude on the cereal."
still wants to see that... But not the Alabama accent. He sighed and shook his head.
shakes his head. 'They want to steal from him! His lucky charms are his, and th-there is no such thing as leprechauns anyway so it makes_
no sense!' He will never go to the states with Arthur then. He doesn't want his love to see him in that situation.
even more confused. "If leprechauns aren't even real why does it matter...?" OAO
amazingly agrees with Alfred... And also doesn't find that fair, plus he wondered what his 'lucky charms' were...
that it is belittling himself by using a leprechaun to represent a nation of highly intelligent human beings. And, sidestepping the desire_
to make a rude joke about Irish 'lucky charms', he says that if he wanted to stop some annoying kids getting their hands on his belongings_
he'd build a forty story wall around Ireland and hide his stuff well.
"He's not as badly treated as the Trix rabbit so I think it's okay! Besides he doesn't represent Ireland. He's just from Ireland" =w=
sighs quietly at that. "If you build a bloody wall, no one can get inter Ireland and you won't have trades." He was amazed he was getting
this bent out of shape over a cartoon cereal mascot from America..
doesn't even want to hear about a poor rabbit... 'Fine! Then I'll do without trade!' He says heatedly, folding his arms and turning away.
laughs at this and shook his head, tugging on his sleeve. "Naw, I'd actually miss you if you were boarded up away somewhere."
frowns at that. "Then you'd cut of trade with me as well, Declan.." He was a little offended that Declan had said that.
's face heats up at them. He shamefully, but still sort of stubbornly, turns to them. 'Nice of you to say...um, America.' He wasn't sure if_
Alfred preferred another name right now... 'And you know I'd let you be an exception, Art'r,'
smiles at him. She actually liked the Irishman. >u< "Cool."
half smiles back. As out-there as Alfred was, he liked the other nation too. Perhaps love, but he wouldn't admit it. He's a guy after all.
very fun, and that's what matters.
frowns. "You can't just say that and then make an exception, Declan. Life doesn't work like that."
rolls her eyes =w= Arthur was a fuddy duddy. =w=
not a fuddy duddy! He was honestly trying to avoid paying attention to the American, confused at him being a her.
starting to get used to the lady-parts America. As long as she doesn't start wearing mini skirts, he's fine with it. 'Art'r, I can do_
whatever I want when I have a wall around me. And that includes making a secret passage between you and me to allow trade and have_
starts to go slightly red. "Declan, you do that, I wont be happy. And you'd cut all tourism, yes?"
doesn't like hearing them talk about lovey dovey stuff. Finally though she laughs. "Secret tunnel through the mountain. Secret secret tunnel
, yeah~!" she hums quietly. =w=
glances to Ally (as he now decides on calling her). 'I suppose, since the Americans buy a lot of whiskey from me I'd have to make a tunnel_
for that too...And then I can't leave out Mattherson-Matthew. Or Wales, or Scotland...' He rubs the back of his neck. That was a lot of_
tunnels. 'Fine! I won't do it!'
sighs at that. "Good. That would just be too bloody stressful." He muttered at that, and looked at America. "What are you humming?"
