Madeline
is
vegging out today and watching movies.
couldn't believe it had been this long since she saw her friend... She walked up to her door and looked around before knocking on her door.
blinks up at the sound of the door, never usually expecting guests. She fixes herself and steps over to the door. She blinks
in surprise, though a big smiles crosses her face when she sees who it is. "Angelien!"
nodded a little to her. "Hallo, Madeline." She had pulled her coat a bit closer to herself, getting a little chilled. "Are you busy?"
notices that it's cold again, stepping aside to let her in. "Ah.. no, not really? Just watching movies," she smiles.
made her way in a bit, taking her long boots off and putting them close to the door. She ran a slim hand through her hair after. "Great. I >
need a break." Even though she had just gotten back from work.
would think that's the best time for a break, really. "Well, you can come join me, or we can do something else?" she asks. She had been
watching silly romantic comedies, mostly.
shrugged her shoulders as she hung up her coat. "That sounds good. I need a beer though. I've been through some annoying things lately."
nods. "Make yourself at home, I'll go grab some." With that, she hurries off to the kitchen to grab them some beer and snacks.
Angelien
was
happy to be in familiar territory. She walked over to the couch, still knowing the layout of the house before seating herself on one side.
comes back in and sets chips on the table, handing a beer to Angie and taking another for herself as she flopped back down into her spot.
opened the beer and leaned back, taking a long drink of the beer. "Refreshing..."
smiles, relaxing into her seat. "Would you like me to start from here or from the beginning?" She hadn't gotten very far in the story yet.
shrugged her shoulders and rubbed her eye."It's okay here.I might fall asleep anyways."She wouldn't mean to, but she had been through a lot.
blinks at this. "Ah, if you want to nap, I can set up the guest bed for you?" she offers with a smile.
Angelien
was
tempted by that but shook her head no. "Dank u, but this is good." She sipped at her beer some more.
hums softly, nodding. "Alright then," she smiles, hitting play. She relaxes back into the couch, sipping her drink too.
held her beer closely, ever so faintly fidgeting her fingers on the can.She couldn't really concentrate properly on the movie,unfortunately.
Madeline
is
watching the movie quite happily, since she already knew the start of the story. She's a little oblivious.
sipped quietly at her beer as to not disturb the other. She sighed quietly, not really wanting to bother the other, but she had a few >
questions stuck in her head that were bothering herself.
wouldn't mind being asked, she was just oblivious to it at the moment.
waited for a slow part of the movie and finished her beer. "Hey, Madeline..."
blinks, glancing up at her. "Yeah?" she answers, smiling.
slowly looked over to her. "Can you tell me... about what happened...?" She hadn't been well informed about the counterparts, or what >
had happened to their world.
blinks at this, not sure what she's referring to at first. "What happened...? Oh, like the other nations and shit?"
nodded quietly to her. "I finally get home after a too long business trip, and find Dorthe living there. With her 'boyfriend' who is a male>
version of me. I just don't understand..."
hums softly, trying to think it over. She hadn't really gotten much of an explanation either really, just woke up in this place one day. "Ah
well.... I'm not really sure myself. It seems like we got shifted into an alternate universe or something...? No one seems to have any
idea, but we're coping.."
groaned annoyed and nods. "Alright. So Dorthe was telling the truth." She curled up a bit on the couch, more so for her own comforting.
nods, noticing her annoyance. She smiles sympathetically, patting her back. "Sorry. We get used to it though..."
appreciated the comfort. "I apparently have no where to live now too. Dorthe seems to have sex everyday in what use to be my bedroom."
blinks at this, hesitating only a moment. "I'm sure you can stay here! I don't know if Matthew has another guest room, but if not you
can bunk with me...."
looked at her and nodded faintly. "So, he does actually live here... Whatever. I'd not mind bunking with you."
[Sorry, but I gotta go out now... I'll be back another time to reply though!]
((okay have fun~))
smiles. "Yeah he does. We haven't had any problems though, he's usually busy..." There was really just that one time made things a little
awkward... but that's okay. "If you're uncomfortable with sharing a bed I can just set up on the couch downstairs, no problem," she
offers with a smile.
shook her head at the other. "I don't mind sharing a bed. Dorthe use to sleep in my bed a lot whenever she got too drunk or high to go home>
." She ran her hand through her hair gently. "When can I start staying over...?" She didn't really want to hear the noises the other two>
made normally at night
*.
smiles at this. "Oh, that's easier then," she hums at the question, tapping her lip. "Anytime you want? As I said, I don't think
Matthew will mind."
nodding her head a bit as she got up to throw out the empty beer. "I'll go and gather up my belongings then. I'll be back later." She >
stopped after putting her boots and coat on. "Is there anything you want from my place?"
hums at this, starting to stand. "Ah.. do you need any help?" she offers, shaking her head at the question. "...not unless you
want to bring over a little to smoke," she chuckles, half kidding.
thought for a moment before shrugging and nodding. "Sure, I could use some help now that I think about it." She had a feeling Canada would >
want something to smoke... they had good times in the past after all. Even if she didn't mention it she would have brought some over.
nods, hopping up from her spot to get her shoes on. She grabs a jacket, ready to help with whatever necessary!
smiles faintly at how eager the other was. She walked outside soon after and got into her car.
climbed into the passenger's side, buckling up. She liked being helpful.
started off to her house once the other was buckled in. She was starting to make a mental note of what things she wanted to take.
stays quiet, turning on the radio as they went.
liked Madeline's company. She liked quiet people, and people who kept to themselves mostly.
Madeline
is
likely the best candidate for that, unless you caught her in one of her sports moods.
would admit that she liked seeing her in a sports mood. She got riled up during football, and liked to enjoy watching Madeline get riled >
up with hockey. It was fun, and one of the only times she'd not act her normal self.
Madeline
likes
it too, though right now she's quietly tapping her foot along to the radio. -u-
really liked her company. After many hours they got to her house, and she parked in the driveway before getting out and taking a much >
needed stretch.
eventually fell asleep in the car, not noticing the hours pass. She wakes up blearily, head leaning heavily against the glass.
made her way to the house once she had fully stretched her limbs. She didn't like being cramped in a car for so long.
makes her way up the walk as well, rubbing her eyes. She was glad she didn't need to think about this too much.
got inside and went to her room to pack some clothes. "If you could gather some art supplies that would be great. Just whatever you find and
> can fit into a bag."
nods, going off to do so. She had been over enough times to know where things were, regardless of the weird world mix up.
finished packing her bags of clothes a little while later, sighing quietly to herself. She couldn't believe she was leaving what use to be >
her house. Either way she made her way back downstairs, making sure her rabbits things were packed, as well as some of her stashes.
wouldn't think much of it, she had come to think of Matthew's house as exactly that. It had the same layout, but none of her decorative
touches. She finishes her task before stepping back out to find Angie.
didn't like to admit that she had liked the art in this house, which she assumed was done by the male Netherlands. She nodded at the small >
Canadian as she brought her things out side and started packing them into the car.
helps her carry them out and shove everything into the car, a little haphazard but it worked. "Is there anything else you need?"
looked back to the house and shook her head. "No. I got everything I need here..."
nods then, smiling a little. "Did you need me to drive back, or...?"
rubbed an eye lightly. "If it's not a problem for you, I'd not mind a little nap in the passanger seat. I'm not so good with long drives."
nods, moving aroud to climb into the driver's side. "Oh of course," she smiles, having to adjust the seat for herself.
got into the passenger seat after and got comfortable. She could already feel her eyes starting to betray her and begin to close.
smiles and pulls out, starting the long drive back and keeping the music at a peacefully low level.
had fallen asleep after an hour of driving. She had her arms crossed and her head tilted forward and slightly to the side.
mouths along to the radio, careful not to wake her. They arrive after a long while, Madeline super glad to finally be home again.
had started to wake up once they were off the highway. She covered her mouth before giving a yawn and rubbing her eyes. "Damn..."
smiles, sparing her a quick glance. "Good morning," she hums softly.
opened the door of the car and got out, stretching her arms and back. "Danku. Again." She looked around a while before unpacking her >
belongings, making sure her rabbit was one of the first into the house. It needed to get use to its surroundings.
smiles, helping her unload things into the house, though she pauses to say hello to the rabbit and... maybe gets a little distracted.
did not mind since she had to drive through the trip. After getting her things in she closed the trunk of the car and walked back inside >
to go settle her things in her friends room.
smiles and plays with the bunny until she remembers she's supposed to be helping, but by then there's not much left to carry
up. She picks up the bunny cage and takes it up with her to her room, glancing around at the boxes.
scratched the back of her head. "I didn't mean to bring this much with me, hopefully it won't make moving around the room difficult."
shrugs, setting the bunny on the bed. "No worries, I'm sure we can organize it all..." she hums, starting to shove her own things out of
the way to clear up some space.
went along to push her boxes and things to the side. She made sure her rabbit would be alright on the bed, she didn't want him falling off.
had kept him in the cage, and she doesn't think it'll fall off. She hums softly, piling things she didn't need in the back of the
closet before putting Angie's boxes in.
sat on the bed once she was done and took her rabbit into her lap. "Danku for the help. It would have taken a lot longer if I did it >
myself."
smiles, brushing her hair back with a smile as she finishes up. "Of course, no problem," she replies, flopping on the bed
next to her. "It'll be like an extended sleepover party," she laughs.
smiled a tad and nodded her head. "Ja. It will be nice having you as company." She unpacked a few of her Miffy plushes and put them >
on the bed.
smiles, she liked the cute plush toys. "Well I hope so eh?" She hums, relaxing against the bed.
looked to the female and ran a hand through her hair loosely. "Do you want to go out for dinner? It's a little late, and you've helped >
a lot today."
hums softly, looking up at her. "Sure, anywhere in particular you wanna go?"
shook her head. "You're country, your area. I'm sure you know where the best places to eat are."
smiles. "Well there's a diner down the road, or we can go somewhere fancier if you'd like?"
smiled a little at the Canadian. "A diner is fine. I'm not picky, as long as I don't get Spanish food I'll be happy."
nods, debating over the places before sitting up. "There's Zak's nearby, it's a good little spot," she suggests.
got up and opened the cage of her rabbit to pet him a bit. "Sounds good. Do you need to prepare before we go?"
shakes her head, standing up. "Nah, it's just a diner, we can go like this."
went to the front door again to get her jacket and shoes on. She rubbed her stomach as to help it not make a sound. The thought of food >
now was making her hungry.
smiles at her, slipping on her shoes and heading out, waiting for Angelien On the porch before setting off to walk towards the diner.
quickly caught up with her and kept in step. She liked being in Canada, the land always seemed to relax her.
smiles softly as she leads the way, looking up at the sky. When they get there, she holds the door open for her.
thanked her quietly as she walked in and looked around. Nothing fancy, but she wasn't picky. And didn't expect anything fancy really.
smiles, grabbing a couple menus and tugging her over to a table by the window.
Angelien
was
glad she chose that, she liked people watching, no matter what time of day. She took the menu and started looking through it in detail.
already knew what she was getting- this diner had the best poutine. She folded her menu and contented herself with looking out the
window while Angie chose.
eventually settled for a chicken salad. She wanted to know how different it was from the kinds back home.
smiles when she notices she chose, catching the eye of the waitress and motioning her over, placing her order.
gave her order shortly after. She was glad her English had improved greatly over the years.
smiels, handing off the menus and relaxing back in her seat, glancing out the window.
looked out as well and people watched. "I missed this place, in all honesty."
blinks at that. "What, here? Not much exciting happens here..."
shrugged her shoulders, leans back in her seat. "But it's so different from home. And this is one of the only places I'd visit willingly."
flushes a bit but shakes her head. "How odd... I guess we always want to escape our own countries, eh.."
took another look inside the diner. "I guess. But I just like it here because of... well, our history. It's like my second home."
nods, smiling softly. "Well, there is that too, of course.." she hums softly, the waitress bringing them their drinks.
took her water and sipped a bit. "We go way back, don't we?" She smiled a tiny bit while looking into her water.
smiles, stirring her milkshake. "Yeah, I guess we do eh..."
sipped more of her water and licked her lips as the food arrived. "Wonderful, it looks great too."
smiles at this, sitting back to let the waitress put it down. "It's always good here," she nods.
took her fork and gently started picking at the food and eating. She bobbed her head, confirming that it was great food.
smiles, doing about the same as she started in on her meal.
covered her mouth as she sat back and chewed her food. "Thanks again, for allowing me to stay..."
nods at that. "Of course eh? I wouldn't turn you out."
ate a few more pieces of lettuce with a rare faint smile on her face. "I'm glad. I don't know who else I'd stay with."
smiles softly. "You're always welcome here."
finished her meal a few moments later, taking the napkin and wiping her mouth with it before putting it on her plate. "I'll remember that >
for if I need to escape my house and land again."
chuckles softly, nodding. "I know how weird it can be living with your other self.."
looked down and before she knew it she was folding her napkin, doing some kinds of origami. "It was just a shock. But, if we're similar >
then I guess it wouldn't be too bad living together."
shrugs. "Matty's pretty similar to me, so I guess it works.."
sipped more of her drink as she watched people walk across the sidewalk outside. "I hope so. I guess he would have the same kind of >
history that we have? Like him and the other Nederlander."
nods, humming into her drink. "Yeah,pretty much. Some details changed, but mostly the same."
nodded a little as she continued to look outside, getting sidetracked and got lost in thought. She was curious about the male Canadian now.
Madeline
thinks
he's pretty sweet, though she's a little awkward around him now. >3<\
tilted her head a bit. "Why are you awkward about him?"
