Order And Willing

[pyrrhiccomedy]

Order And Willing - Prussia/America (sort of).
You call this a fucking army?
Genre: Drama, where America kind of gets his ass kicked. But there's some unexpected heart-to-heart there, too.
1778. R for violence.

Emergency pinch hit for the aph_rarexchange! That makes three fills total. Am I indie yet?

Oooh, I can never get enough of these two. *A* Finally some truly awesome, war-jaded strategist Prussia. Seeing him used as a mere comic relief gets a little weary after a while. <.<

"Then," A smile: glinting eyes and teeth. "You try to load up Bess there and shoot me before I stab you through the leg."

America stared at him, the musket held loose in his hands. Prussia grinned. A lurched breath later, "Are you fucking crazy? I'm not gonna try and shoot you!"

THISSSS. ... Somehow in my head this exchange worked with a perfect Fight Club style timing (as in the "I want you to hit me as hard as you can -- ... What?" moment). If that makes any sense. It possibly doesn't. Fuck, it's midnight again.

Ah, I'm so glad you liked it! =D Prussia is hilarious, I think, a lot of the time--but he can also probably tear out your goddamned teeth, and that's something we should maybe recognize from time to time.

This is great! Oh, Prussia, you crazy military-discipline-and-daredevil-showmanship old warhorse, you. Poor America. Hee!

(And I love the idea of von Steuben having his interpreter curse for him!)

[pyrrhiccomedy]

Poor America. Hee!

This is pretty much how I felt in writing the first half of this fic. XD America is just FUN TO BEAT UP, I don't know what it is. It occurred to me as I was posting this that this is my fourth fic in which America kind of gets worked over. I've let Russia do it, England's done it, fuck, even Italy got a turn...now it's Prussia!

I think it's just possible that Prussia's enjoyed it the most.

It is kinda funny how easily America gets beat up in your fics, considering that he has a ridiculous (freakish) level of strength compared to any other country (at least in canon, anyway :P). Dragging around cars and tossing buffaloes as a tot... Hehehe!

[pyrrhiccomedy]

Well, in the order that I wrote them:

1) Italy was using England as a hostage to keep America from fighting back;
2) It was Russia, Cold War fic, in terms of strength they're probably evenly matched;
3) England had America tied up at the time;
and
4) Prussia was America's superior officer and America wasn't actually trying to fight back.

It's not that America is weaker than he is in canon, it's just that brute strength isn't always enough to keep from getting your ass handed to you.

The only coherent thing I'm able to say to this is:

I LOVE YOUR PRUSSIA!

It's actually so rare to see him not as a comic relief but as a strategist and a really serious guy.
Also, him beating America is entertaining. It should not be, but it is.

Either way, this thing is awesome ♥

And the little bit about England was love - the most powerful empire in the world, recognize! ♥

[pyrrhiccomedy]

I LOVE PRUSSIA TOO, I've been writing with him more often! Comic relief is great and everything, but come on, the guy was a petrifying military state. There's got to be something going on upstairs.

Also, him beating America is entertaining. It should not be, but it is.

Yeah, on the one hand, maybe I should feel bad for having so much fun knocking America around? But on the other hand, whatever. He can take it. XD

[harusamemosuke]

Yes, yes, yes, YES, PRUSSIA I LOVE YOU. Bastard that you are, I adore you. Never change.

There are so many awesome things about this that I can't really pick just a few. Suffice to say, I had a huge grin on my face the entire way through. (And fuck, we were just a bunch of suicidal hick farmers. It's amazing we lasted six months, let alone win the goddamn war against the British Empire.)

Fantastic as always. I think I am in love with the way you write Prussia. And really, the fact that he's beating the shit out of America while training him should not be as hilarious as it is. :D

fuck, we were just a bunch of suicidal hick farmers. It's amazing we lasted six months, let alone win the goddamn war against the British Empire.

THANK YOU PRUSSIA

THANK YOU FRANCE

THANK YOU SPAIN

THANK YOU ENGLAND, FOR BEING SUCH AN UNLIKEABLE CUSS THAT ALL OF EUROPE JUMPED AT THE CHANCE TO DICK YOU OVER.

WE APPRECIATE IT. ♥♥♥

God damn, Prussia is a crazy bitch. Just what America needed, but God damn...

[pyrrhiccomedy]

Crazy like a FOX.

And beating the shit out of America like a FOX.
