actually a little surprised he received a birthday wish from Romano at all but is thankful regardless.

sent over a bottle of wine, too. He's not that much of a jerk, of course he'd wish the bastard a happy birthday...but no birthday sex with his fratello, dammit!!

...not have sex with Romano's brother.....he thinks this is an awkward topic of discussion for the two.

glad to hear that. He's just looking out for his fratello! Ludwig should know what that's like, having a trainwreck for his own brother.

frowns. Gilbert was not a trainwreck and was more than capable of taking care of himself. Bl

only ever seen Gilbert drunk, passed out from being too drunk, or causing trouble for people. That kind of sounds like a trainwreck to him.

can't say that his bruder is flawless but he would never say that Gilbert was a trainwreck especially considering all the things he's parted on others even if it seems he can't be serious. Gilbert was and would

always be someone he looks up too even if half the time his bruder gave him a headache.

....wasn't really expecting that. He didn't know Ludwig could feel that kind of sentiment, but moreso that Gilbert was even deserving of it...but he understood. He was a brother too, and his fratello -as much _

_as he loved him- was an airhead. But he loved him regardless.

glad that Romano understood that in that case and hopes to never hear him call Gilbert such names again especially when his bruder helped them gain their independence from Austria.

call him what he wants. His jerk brother set all three dogs on him!

quirks a brow at that. Did he now? What did Romano do to merit that?

didn't do anything! Huff. His brother is just an asshole.

quite sure he must have done something to provoke Gilbert...not that it's that hard for Romano to do.

didn't do shit. If Gilbert wanted to get offended for no reason, that's not his fault.

go talk to Gilbert if it really upsets Romano so much.

huffs. What's done is done, Ludwig should just enjoy his birthday.

thanks him again for the wine and the wishes...he really does appreciate it.

would like repayment with receiving his brother back the same way he left...untaintedl

*.

quirks a brow at that and shakes his head at such a repayment. "Ja, ja, whatever you want."

knows Prussia would just come after him with a stupid prank if Ludwig told him off >>;; "Buono."

would make sure Gilbert wouldn't. "Did you want to have a drink?" He asks mostly being polite and knowing it would make Feliciano happy.

doesn't think anyone can control Prussia. "Si, why not?" He's agreeing mainly for Feliciano as well...

agrees with that sentiment. Gilbert was a loose canon if anything. "Beer or something else?"

makes a face at the mention of beer. "Do you have wine?"

nods. "Ja, we have reds, whites and rose."

...is a little impressed the other has rose wine. But he won't say anything! "Red wine is fine, grazie..."

nods again as he orders both a beer and red wine before settling into the bar stool. "I hope you like wine from the Rhineland."

takes his own place, nodding. "Si, si, it's not bad..." He rather liked it actually, but he wasn't going to say that.

had a feeling he would but doesn't say anything either. "Everything going over well with you?"

about that question himself. "Well enough. You?"
