Aw, you remembered the Olive Branch Petition. Good job.
Just one thing, forgive me, I've been doing research on the American Loyalists...
Only 1 in 40 Americans left after the Revolution, roughly 40-60,000. Before the War, 1 in 3 Americans were Loyalists, roughly 500,000. This means 440,000 Loyalists stayed (minus a few for war casualities, there weren't that many). No wonder America had confusing feelings about England...

writer!anon here. Thanks
I find the stuff about the loyalists fascinating. I don't think it would have been a clean break (or at least as it was portrayed in APH for America) as there were a lot of loyalists, and of course, America's own feelings for England.

Writer!Anon here. the pairing is USUK/UKUS and america is crying over memories of the revolution. the request specifically was:Back in the present day, Lithuania (who has finished making coffee) finds America standing outside with a sad look on his face (presumably, he had been crying). America explains that the storage room was so filled with trash and dust, that he couldn't get any cleaning done. Lithuania offers him the coffee.
I want to see Alfred crying his eyes out over all the memories of the Rev. war. Not little sniffles, like a /total breakdown/ and is praying Lithuania doesn't hear him whatsoever, because he wants to be alone and he realizes how much he misses England. I already have a link to the original fill in the first one. I hope I've done what I'm supposed to now.
