순탄축하! Hey big bro? Can I open a present before Christmas? The television said it was okay if it was just one! They also said it was better to give one meaningful present instead of a lot of expensive things so I packed all my feelings into these cards!

You can't be serious.

[mansae]

Are you jealous? It's because big bro gives me better presents than the ones he gives you! Because I love you so much, I have one for you!

[ He hands her a pink card with Morning Glory stickers on it and matching stationery. ]

[ NARROWS HER EYES AT KOREA, then snatches the card and opens it ]

Hmm. 친애하는 대만, Merry Christmas, blah blah blah--

... [ Obviously Yong Soo must have written something wrong, because Taiwan is trying so hard not to hit him right now. ]

[mansae]

[ "대만에게! Merry Christmas, lil' sis! This year I really want F4 for Christmas. You can wrap them up for me, right? Also! I think instead of kissing under mistletoe, we should change the tradition to let me touch your breasts instead. Let's do it now! 한국이" There's a piece of mistletoe that falls out of the card when she opens it and onto the ground. As Taiwan reads over the letter, he grabs it and waves it over her head. ]

Look, look!

[ask_me_arse]

Now that's just cheatin'. You can't open presents before Christmas.

[mansae]

It's just one! I'll even pick a small one... I bet that one's just Manchuria!

[ask_me_arse]

It'd be better to wait, yeah? Then you could open them all at once. You'll be one short Christmas Day if you open one now.

[mansae]

But I want to open one of them right now!

Besides, big bro's presents aren't that great. He'll give me all the things I want on New Year's!

[ reading the card, reading, reading.... ]

"Next time, Bring Natalie Portman with you when you visit"...?

[mansae]

...Heh!

[ He wouldn't mind touching Dolly Parton's boobs, either, but she looks like Minka so they're obviously related and both Korean. ]

[usa_fuckyeah]

[ oh ha ha ha, it's a joke! ]

Bro, I think you're missing something in this envelope! I mean, where are the keys?

[mansae]

[ That's because joking came from Korea. Thanks for noticing. Only that wasn't a joke. ]

What keys?

[ card in hand, looking a little shocked. Apparently it was very inappropriate.... ]

[ 오스트리아에게

America showed me this movie called Bruno about this guy that came from you! I think he's really weird but since you like things like that, I'm going to give you something really nice! Merry Christmas, bro!

You can pay me back by giving me a video of your and your wife wearing the stuff you buy, okay?

한국이 ]

[ There's a gift card inside. It's for specialty clothing... ]

You don't have to say it, I know you're super happy!

[creating_music]

[ .... the implications! DROPPING THE CARD. ]

[mansae]

You're really that excited...! You're really into strange things!

[distantwater]

No, aru. What are you up to?

[mansae]

I'm not up to anything! So can I open one? Please, please, pleeeeaaaase? Uri, uri, uri! Mansaaaeeee!!

[ Baby begging ]

[distantwater]

[hands on hips, staring him up because he's short down, that doesn't work so well, now that you're all grown, Korea]

AIYAA, act your age! I don't even celebrate Christmas. Where did the presents even come from? Don't push your luck aru!

[mansae]

But it's Christmas! It's a super big event! You have to at least give me a present!

...That's why I wrapped up all these great things I wanted from your place already! Now can I open one?
