Title: From Then to Now
Characters: Prussia (Young), Holy Roman Empire (Young in the first)
Notes: This is three drabbles put into one story technically, because they were too short to be separate posts. The first is called Awesome When Asleep, the second is Loyalty, and the third is Who He Likes. Consider it space-saving.
Warmth. Lightness. Drowsy. A yawn broke the baby's sleeping face, and he opened his eyes, little clear blue pebbles that looked so small on his big head. He yawned again and stretched outward, kicking his feet a bit under the blanket and turning his head to the side. I reached into the crib and pet his soft golden hair, small curls that stook up in a tangle on top of his head. I pulled my hand back and watched him. He was a lot cuter when he was asleep. I climbed off the chair and ran to my room, taking a stuffed rabbit from the ground and ran back. limbing onto the chair, I watched the baby once more before setting the toy beside him. The baby stared the rabbit for a moment, then reached a tiny hand for it and pet its fur. I stuck my hand next to the rabbit and he stopped petting, looking with some interest at this new plaything. Then, he stretched his arm over the rabbit's legs and touched one of my fingers, curling his hand around it into a small fist.
The stupid baby wasn't so bad, I guessed, but only awesome when he was sleeping.

"Pledge your loyalty to me. To the Holy Roman Empire."
A hand extended for the answer. Prussia met the cool gaze of the empire-to-be infront of him, his brother. He forgot when the boy grew up, when he became someone important. Where did the fat sausage he threw into the river then rescued go? The cooing mess of drool and shit seemed the complete opposite of this serious kid. He rolled his eyes and the Holy Roman Empire frowned.
"That's not very respectful, Bruder-- knight. Show some."
Prussia rolled his eyes again, over-exaggreating the motion. The younger boy rolled his eyes and kept his hand held out. He'd wait. Finally, after what seemed like hours, Prussia took the hand and pressed his lips to it. The Holy Roman Empire took a secret pleasure in Prussia's bowed head, pledging his alligence and loyalty to his flag. He ran his small fingers through the other's hair, almost like petting a dog.
"You should really wash your hair, Bruder, it's filthy."
*☆*
"You liiike her."
"Do not! S-She's just a maid."
"A maid... Who you liiikeeee."
The Holy Roman Empire pushed his older brother, who just laughed and shoved him back, knocking him over.
"Ehehehe~ You know it's true, Bruder~ You like like her!"
His face flushed as he sat on the ground, then he took some dirt and threw it into his brother's face.
"I do NOT like her! She just happens to be wherever I am!"
Prussia wiped the dirt from his face and kicked the young slightly, laughing.
"You like like her and you follow her around all day like a lovesick dog~ But when she finds you out you get all mad and bully her! No wonder she likes me better."
It was a total lie, and even if they both knew it it didn't stop the Holy Roman Empire from throwing himself at his brother in an embarrassed rage.
