Ivan continued to simply stare, still shell-shocked by the strangeness he had seen, until the side character, whose name he still did not know, said, “That’s what I hate about this government. Everything is in red.”
The unexpected jab at him, and in a children’s movie no less, almost made Ivan laugh. Instead he smirked. Perhaps Alfred was more devious than Ivan had given him credit for.
The Russian was given a chance to get back at Alfred when what should have been a routine train ride became so much more.
He sighed.
“An American movie is nothing without explosions,” Ivan muttered. Unphased, Alfred just grinned at him.
They watched in silence once more.
But when the movie began to again speak of Anastasia’s past…
“Ivan! Ivan!” Anastasia ran up to him, holding her arms up for a hug. He obliged, scooping her effortlessly into his arms. Then, because he knew that innocent look she was giving him, Russia asked sternly, “What have you done now
( ... )
Awwwwwww~ That was so much more then this anon was hoping for. Ivan's flashbacks during the movie were sad but at the same time the ones with Anastasia made me smile. And him saying how inaccurate the movie was at the end was perfect :) Really loved it even though it was angsty, it made me realize how sad some of the countries reactions to these movies could be, especially Ivan's (or if there was a Native American-tan watching Pocahontas). Anyway, loved the fill, it was great :D Here have some internet cookies :)

This one doesn't care all that much for Ivan but any stories with moments of Ivan interacting with the Romanov children always manages to capture my heart. Very very bittersweet flashbacks there on Ivan's part.
Ah Anastasia... darn that movie. My history teacher stated that that movie was banned from her house due to the inaccuracies. First time I saw it (having missing the first half and no idea what it was about) I figured it was just some nice fairytale or something like that. Dang was I wrong. After studying the Romanovs, I found the movie to be rather appalling. As nice as it would had been for Anastasia to had lived... still...

Ah yes, this topic never ceases to strike a cord somewhere in me. When I found out the truth about the Romanovs, I never looked at the movie the same way again. And "Once Upon a December" is one of my favorite songs of all time, you know?
Thank you so much for doing this writer anon, I've been wondering what would've happened if Russia saw Anastasia.

Um...I know this is a kink meme and I'm sorry to get all SRS BZNS on you but there is plenty of evidence that Rasputin was not a nice guy. Opinions on him go either way, but there is evidence that he drank and slept around and a lot of people in Russia hated him. He also bragged in public about his influence on the royal family. I really liked your fill, though, it highlights that a lot of American movies twist history to become more "entertaining" without thinking about at all. Geez, Alfred. -_-

Wholeheartedly agreed with Ivan there at the end.
