... China? Nî hâo! Cripes, my Mandarin's rusty.

Pretty sure that's your cheese 'n kisses you're railin' on, mate!

[mostpopulous]

What does cheese and Mandarin be having to do with-

....aiyaah, wait, am remembering that accent..

[my current research tells me, in a nutshell, that the Chinese have been immigrating to Australia for centuries, helped build up the nation as laborers despite on-and-off exclusion/restrictive policies, and that many fled there during WW2- also that Australia wanted to assist China then. So, mostly kind of allies? H-HOW DOES THIS WORK FOR YOU]

[onebutmany]

No, boofhead, your cheese 'n kisses! Y'know, your trouble an' strife?

It's Australia.

[That works for me! ♥ It's even theorised that China discovered Australia before any of the Europeans, and as far as I know they're pretty chill with each other throughout most of their relations except for Australia's earlier bursts of extreme racism, so mostly kind of allies works well!]

-Australia, aru! Has been long time, how you eh? Still can't make face or behind of your slang, hohoho!

[Awesome! That...wouldn't surprise me, really, given China's apparent habit of adopting bbnations. Oh, and given that China's from 1958, the fact that Australia wanted to aid him against Japan means a lot, so I think that the "mostly allies" thing will stick for him in Mayfield even alongside his pissiness at America/England/etc.]

Oh.

[mostpopulous]

Aiyaaah, yes yes me too, aru. So many nations here in house already-
