OMG GUYS YOU ARE BACK!!!
Awesome, as always.

[wizzard890]

Thank you so much~ =D

(Also, that icon is kind of spectacular.)

...Oww. That's basically what I was feeling through that whole argument.

Welcome back!:D

[wizzard890]

It wasn't half as bad as we thought it might be, honestly. England was really cool about it. And America did himself proud.

OMG YOU GUYS.
YOU'RE ALIVE.
and back with more gloriously heart-wrenching stuff. ♥
Oh, England. Good for you, man, sticking up against pouty America. Lord knows most couldn't do it.

(did I tell y'all that I got a 5 on European History? and re-read TCE as part of my review? ♥)

[wizzard890]

WE ARE ALIVE. IT WAS TOUCH AND GO FOR A WIHLE THERE.

Man, I can feel for America. He's mired alone in an awful conflict, he's just had shrapnel dug out of his shoulder, it's fucking hot, and he's being broken up with. AGAIN. He's got every right in the world not to be a ray of sunshine right now.

(And a 5 on European History? Nice.)

YOU'RE BACK!!!

Seriously, IRL, I gasped when I saw this update and almost fell out of my chair.

Gooooooooooood Morning, Vietnam!

Like all your other chapters, I adored this one for your style and quick dialog. Seriously, you guys would be great in screenwriting. I'll say this until you guys get tired of it or whatever, but the way you all write England just kills me because it's so good.

The last bit, is just. Aw, America you stupid little romantic boy.

Oh gosh, thank you so much! Dialogue is such a blast! I am always afraid I have a bit of a wooden ear for it, on my end of things, so I'm thrilled to hear that you think it plays so naturally.

And yes, England. England is a joy.

You do not have a wooden ear for dialogue, don't be a dork. ♥

You know, I'll never understand how people can say you guys treat England badly. He's probably the only person I don't want to smack right now.

It's all down hill from here, isn't it? :C

[wizzard890]

Oh gosh, thanks! Gotta love England~ But we would really rather not bring outside negativity into it, you know? We're just looking to tell a story. =D

Ninja edits~

[plushielover177]

My bad, than. Sorry.

He's good at playing Only Sane Man. At least when everyone else is going crazy. :/

[wizzard890]

Oh no, it was totally a slip-up on my part. Don't worry about it. <3
