[Meriken is sitting on the sidewalk, facing the house in front of her. It's a few houses down from where she actually lives, but she still seems to be looking at it expectantly, as if she knows something will happen.

[thebestnation]

[...Oh, she hit her. Oops.

...

Throws another book. For good measure.]

[tartswithtea]

[sitting up....

OOF

Back down.]

[thebestnation]

[Oh shi--

Sits there. Pretending to be intently reading an upside down copy of "101 ways to clean your clothes".]

[fuelefficient]

...

[he won't question it but he'll peek a glance every now and then]

[thebestnation]

[Throws a couple more books.]

Why isn't she answering!?

[slam.]

[fuelefficient]

[ahem]

Meriken-san...

[thebestnation]

[Stops mid throw.

Drops book.]

O-Oh...hey, Japan.

[couldbeeeepthem]

[Hey, remember that creepy child that you helped a while ago?

Now she's a creepy teen, watching you from the sidewalk.]

[thebestnation]

[She chucks a few more books at the door, before she actually notices the creepy teen that's creepily watching her.

Oh yea, she helped her when she was young and still sweet. Awkward.]

Oh. Um...hello there.

[couldbeeeepthem]

Do you hate literature that much?

[thebestnation]

These books hardly count as literature. [Holds up a copy of, "The best ways to keep your husbands happy"]

[puffinparadise]

[Hey look, the window's now open and there's your totally normal country peering out of it.]

What are you doing to the door?

[thebestnation]

[Oh look, it's an Iceland! His appearance makes her stop hurling books at the door.

For the moment anyway.]

Trying to get Bri-tan to answer the door.

[puffinparadise]

Couldn't you just knock or ring the door bell?

[thebestnation]

Because she'd ignore me and not answer.

[supersizedpower]

[Just.

Watching and laughing.]

[thebestnation]

[Turns to look.

Gives him an almost-glare]

Why are you laughing?

[supersizedpower]

No reason.

[lol lol lol]

She seems pretty nice to me! Maybe I'll go say hi!

[thebestnation]

She's not nice! She's a jerk!
