Oh yeah, I'm fast tonight. And guess what? ONLY 10 MORE DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!! I'm so excited I could type in all caps about it. ... which I did.

Enjoy part 95! :)

What did I tell you?

Let her be!

Gah! [jumps about a foot in the air] Y-your face...

But it's just for fun, honest.

[pouts] And the information about her powers would be useful to know. She did some sort of sparkly thing with her fingers last night, don't you want to know what it was?

[puppy dog eyes]

That warranted it. Seriously now. bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 02:02:35 UTC
[is grimly satisfied at her fright]

Our ideas of "fun" seem to differ, like our ideas of so many things.

I agree, that would be good to know. But if you force her to reveal the information she will certainly get back at you for it. How often do I have to tell you that I don't want to see you dead? For the last time: Let me handle this.

Totally deserved, I know. Fee free to yell at her too, I don't mind at all. bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 02:12:43 UTC
[crosses her arms and glares at you]

But you're not handling it! This is a great opportunity to pump her for information and humiliate her and you're just leaving her be!

Besides, if you ban me from doing anything helpful, I'll be no use at all.

She can't try that when he's in the same thread! bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 02:19:38 UTC
[straightens up and glares back]

I am handling it. I'll question her about her abilities.

And what you're doing isn't help- but only harmful, mainly for yourself. If you need an assignment so badly, why don't you re-organize my ministy of the interior's folders by the year?

Wasn't sure if he was paying attention! bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 02:30:54 UTC
[makes a disgusted face. Ugh, filing.]

I'd love to, but unfortunately my grasp of German is nowhere near good enough.

But I will leave you to question her, just make sure to find out what she can do, and more importantly, how to stop it.

By the way, I've recently met a Russia who claims to be an ally of yours, from 1812.

[please let this distract him from thoughts of filing]

Reply

Oh, I'm always paying attention to you. Always. bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 02:48:34 UTC
A pity.

Well, thank you. I'll do my best to get something out of her.

[looks very taken aback by the following news]

...

From... from 1812?

I was still a child then, it was my first incarnation.* My brother and Österreich were fighting over my states, and Frankreich had the greatest control over me... when he went against Russland that year, he took many of my men to fight.

[is uncharacteristically absentminded, trying to collect his memories]

...

*OOC: Being the Rhine Confederation is the first thing my Germany can remember; by my headcanon he was HRE before that. ;3; And I'm not all that well-versed in that era, so I hope I'm getting this right!

Reply

Aaagh! *hides* That's nice, but slightly scary. :P bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 03:02:24 UTC
[so relieved you bought the 'bad german' excuse]

[looks confused]

Er, well, he said you were his ally when I asked him about you...and he's not communist, which is nice. He was injured, so I gave him some bandages from that first aid kit you have in the cupboard under the sink, also some bottled water and some of your paracetamol, I hope you don't mind?

OOC: I don't know anything about that time, so whatever you decide is fine with me.

Reply

I know. bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 03:34:36 UTC
No, of course he isn't communist. He's from the time of the Napoleonic wars. As I said Frankreich had essentially taken all control over me from Preußen and Österreich, driving them out... Russland's victory over Frankreich liberated me from his rule.

I wish I could remember this more clearly... I was very young. These are among my first memories.

[shakes his head to clear it]

Why was he injured? Do you know? And of course I don't mind you aiding him, we need all allies we can get.

Oh, and I just managed to gain information on our undead friend's abilities. How's that?

OOC: Sorry for being slow as hell, but I needed to read up on that before talking rubbish! ;3;

Reply

<3 you anyway bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 03:50:07 UTC
I don't know the details, only that he was at war with France and had just driven him out. I believe he was planning to head for Paris.

And I told him to ask when they were from before attacking Frances on here, so don't stress.

[serious thinking face]

So maybe he is in the process of liberating you? I think he might be an okay ally, he seems fairly sane so far.

Great job, partner [gives you a thumbs-up]

Sadly, I can't think of any obvious ways to counter those powers yet.

OOC:No problem. I've just realized, he 'died' during that war. Poor guy'll be traumatized.

[looks away, frowns and mumbles]

Yes, well I know what she means to you, and there was always the chance he might go for her.

I guess that means you're heterosexual then, since she badtouches as much as he does?

[clears throat, and makes a motion with her hand, as if brushing the whole topic of France to one side]

Yeah, the meme isn't the sanest of places, though it seems to be Russia who causes most of the trouble...followed by Spain, and England.

[sighs also]

Alright, though I wasn't exactly messing with her in the first place, but...

[rolls eyes and nods head a couple of times]

Is there anything you would like me to do? Apart from clean the kitchen floor, I already checked the rota, and by the way, we're out of cereal, sorry.
OOC:Aww, cute. I think it works, because memories of that time would still be in his people's heads, so why not? It's strange to think about.

NOOOOOOOooooo bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 04:34:23 UTC
But... but, but... I edited that 7 minutes ago! Oh God, I fail so hard today. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry.

C-copy ur answer to my below comment? ;__;

Thanks, and right back at you! <3 bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 04:20:04 UTC
[Looks alarmed at "headed for Paris", then relaxes again]

Thank you very much for telling him to ask them first! He probably wouldn't have recognized "my" Frankreich anyway, but I wouldn't want any of the other ones to be harmed either. After all male Frankreich is a cherished partner and friend to me. Even though I don't appreciate his badtouching. And he sometimes makes me really uncomfortable with his laugh.

[looks genuinely thankful]

Well, if this Russland seems sane I'll certainly try to establish a good relation with him. ... You know, it actually should be cause for worry to all of us that sanity is so rare on this meme that you automatically become a sought-after ally purely by possessing it.

[sighs]

Me neither, but we'll work something out. Just promise me to lie low in the meantime! Don't provoke, attack or otherwise mess with her, ja?

OOC: Indeed. HRE was dissolved (and the Rhine Republic founded) in 1806, so technically my Germany's first memories would be of France... but I have him remembering bits and pieces ( ... )

Oh, you. What did you edit for, they look the same? bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 04:45:44 UTC

I was displeased with a little formulation. *sob* Such a beautiful thread and I messed it up! ಥД bake_einsamcake December 17 2009, 04:58:07 UTC
Thank you once more. I appreciate it all the more as I know you aren't particularly fond of her.

Hm... I don't actually think so. It's different for nations, we aren't really settled on preferences like humans are... I think it's just because I had so many nightmares featuring his laughing face during the depression, after the First World War.

[shivers as he remembers the hunger, the constant worry and these god-damned cockoo clocks]

And also because she doesn't have his laugh and his... leer. Somehow I just don't associate the bad aspects of our past with her as much. That may be shallow, but--

[stops as he suddenly realizes that he's talking about his relationship with his aide partner; blushes profoundly]

Uh... ahem.

...

[gladly jumps onto the new topic]

Thank you.

You aren't exactly leaving me a lot to choose from here! But still, thank you for being such a helpful guest. And I figure my brother ate the last cereals again; he never restocks. I'll get new ones tomorrow.

Do you have a favourite brand?
