Oh, this was excellent! I'm glad to see the second installment of this story :D

[weird_number]

Thank you! :D

Heh, I swear I get so much inspiration from reading the news and just following up on foreign policy. XD It's so much fun and I've become kinda addicted to EU politics, now that I want to move there. And England's relationship Europe is just so...funny.

That's a good point about the notes -- I totally forgot that the acronyms aren't commonly seen, thanks. :P And I'm glad it's not offensive, I became paranoid after reading too many scathing comments from northern vs southern Europe. :)

Yes, I really want to write more France/Germany! (And the EU, ahah)

Hetalia has made everyone want to move to other countries :D And me too, I follow international politics so much more now. It's one of those things that works really well with personifications!

You're right that if the abbreviations were more commonly known, you could have put the notes at the bottom. Either that, or you could have explained it in context? At any rate, I think you made it clear that it wasn't actually you using those acronyms, and anyway you don't approve of using them, so :) I don't think you'll have a problem.

Clearly you're good at writing all the characters, so :D

Haha, it's a trend. :P Meanwhile, I take out my restless energy by learning as many languages as I can muster.

I think people were proposing replacements like GIPSI or PIGIES. I doubt that last one would go over well, even if some people considered it cute. XP

Thank you. ;)

This is great. The lines were witty and hilarious, and the character interaction is just gold. The real-life facts were woven in really nicely too. Awesome read, definitely stalking :D

[weird_number]

Thanks! :) I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Aw, poor England *giggles* *cough*Serveshimright*cough*

Very funny new chapter in the end, I'm looking forward for more. You can put current political topics into Hetalia fanfiction really well.
I missed yelling at Greece about him being to lazzy a bit because around here, it's currently the main toppic in the news, but maybe in the next chapter ...?

Just one thing you might find interesting: afaik, Sweden is to join the Euro memberstates soon, as are all other EU members without the Euro besides Denmark and the UK.

[weird_number]

Haha, yes, serves him right indeed! XD

And thank you! :)

Yeah, I totally forgot to include the Greece stuff -- I'll be incorporating that next chapter. :P I've actually heard that a couple of German newspapers cover EU-related news really well, so it'd be awesome to follow that, but unfortunately, I can't read German. :(

Huh, I didn't know that about Sweden. :P Sweden is joining his wife, ahaha.

[traumschwinge]

Our newspapers do that, I guess *only reads the online issuses and those handed out for free at the stations, though* I can't compare to newspapers from other European countries though.
Uhm, I think, tagesschau.de and spiegel.de both have English versions where some of the articles are translated so you could check that out.
Sadly, FAZ and Sueddeutsch don't have English versions, which is bad because they are the best newspapers I know.

i'm in full support of this turning into aventures of EU:) EU seems to be too exciting in your narratives! the video, was FTW. and pig... how do you manage to put all the good stuff into one fic :D i'm addicted to you! your fics i mean

oh and IMF.....i probably shouldn't be laughing at it, but i totally am (dear dear). of all possible things.. sexual assault. *headdesks*

[whyte90]

urgh, i forgot to sign in when i left my comment, hope you'll still get it! (though it's just me yapping happy nonsense about how i loved the story)
anyways, totally looking forward to more of this.

a mention of IMF in future chapters would be much loved <3

[weird_number]

Thank you! xD

The EU is really such a fun cast to write about -- crazy range of personalities having to resolve things peacefully. I'm always surprised I don't see more about them. :P

*cough* haha, cool, I'll try to incorporate the IMF stuff in the next chapter. :)
