It's been a while mun

[von_ballenstedt]

What do you mean "I haven't been around in ages"? There hasn't been much to do, even so, you are my mun, I wasn't being idle. I may have been silent, but I was never gone to begin with.

Although it's too bad that there hasn't been more information about my brothers and me during all that time other than the fact that I'm there... Well, it's not like I'm not used to being patient.

Anyways... I hope you'll have me around more often in the future, even though you feel a bit nervous about it.

Sincere regards,
Brandenburg

...Does this mean I have to return the shit I took from your room while you were gone?! Because if so, I REFUSE!! I absolutely refuse!!

[von_ballenstedt]

...

[Why did he know such a thing would happen? ... Right, it did happen before. He sighs.]

What did you take from my room?

[If it's nothing important then they can talk.]

[dererste]

[Invest in some locks, Bran...No disregard that, he can pick locks. NEVER LEAVE YOUR ROOM EVER. That's security.]

Kesesesese!! Methinks that's none of your damn business now!! But the friendly just like a little crow me will tell you out of the kindness of my heart!! I've only wiped the layers of dust off your laptop and lovingly made it all mine! You should thank me!! I spared it from loneliness during your entire leave of absence!! [he also pilfered through your drawers, took your wallet, read a few of your journals, stole a few outfits or two, made off with a watch or two, jumped on your bed, stole your pillows. But he was not alone. Listen, when you have 353534534 brothers, if you leave your stuff milling about, raids happen!!]

[von_ballenstedt]

[You'd think he knows better but... it's Prussia.]

Gilbert...

[Speak now, while he's still calm, this is theft for god's sake, why his laptop, do you intend to blackmail him with something .]

[dererste]

[It is indeed]

You can get down on your knees, if it'll make your gratitude come easier!! [No, No. Calm conversations are no fun. He lives to rile people up because he's immature and incapable of wise decisions. Depends. Maybe. Only little.]

[von_ballenstedt]

[Why does he tolerate your behavior again...?]

... Fine.

[He does get to his knees but in a moment he expects it the least, he gets tackled.]

[dererste]

[It's been 400 years and he still doesn't why you do. He's TOTALLY not expecting you to actually fall down to your knees and the shock is visible on his face. Uh-oh]

O-Oi--S-Seriously?! I was only kid--[and then he gets tackled. BANSHEE SHRIeK TO WAKE THE MASSES. GOES DOWN LIKE A TREE]


I WAS KIDDING!!! I WAS K IDDIIIIINNNGGNGNGNNGGHHHHHHHHHH!!! L-LET GO!! [FLAILS USELESSLY]

[von_ballenstedt]

[Maybe he's a masochist... or he likes you too much for his own good.

And he knows. But he wanted to catch you when you expected it least. Siegfried chuckles.]

You let your guard down too easily.

[Flail as much as you want.]

Only when I get all my things back.

[dererste]

[If you love him you shouldn't be straddling him and crushing him with your body weight]


Y-YOU!! You fuckin' tricked me!! [STRAINING AND WRITHING before he stops suddenly. Eyebrow raised]

...Hoh? You think you'll win so easily, hah?! You're getting bold in your old age!! I SAID I REFUSE!! Whatever!! I'll fuckin' lay here like this with you all day if I need to!! A guy like me is practically one with the floor anyhow!! This is child's play!! [LAYS BACK like he is lounging with his arms folded under his head and everything]

If Sigiboy wants his damn laptop back, he's gonna have to be more convincing!! Otherwise, it's nap-time!! [CLOSES HIS EYES AND MOCK SNORES.]

[eisenreich]

It's become very quiet of late, though it permits me to get more work done, I so can't complain too much.

As for nervous mundanes...the only cure is to allow you more freedom.

[von_ballenstedt]

That's true... even so it does get boring after a while.

[As for his mundane... he sighs.]

They are worried because I have only been mentioned before and that it might lead to people feeling uncomfortable.

[eisenreich]

Ja, I suppose that has some truth in it.

[ And she gives a short laugh. ]

Uncomfortable? They are as fragile as old glass if they feel as such. My own mundane has an original character, but because of the work she has put into him, she's often complimented on the guy. The only ones uncomfortable are the ones who feel intimidated.

Under the assumption your mundane has done some research on you, my recommendation is to show their work. If someone is still uncomfortable, they're not worth the time.

[von_ballenstedt]

More like stones ready to turn into sand and dust.

[Hey...]

Back in the day they found the design of a fan rather interesting and liked their idea of "me", they did lots of research as a result... but that's a few years ago.

I would recommend them to start from point zero all-over again. Since they have no intention to throw me into a game for the time being it's fine, but being stuck in the middle is also not something either of us wants.

[eisenreich]

Yes...looking at your profile, there's too much focus on you being mentioned and not enough focus on you yourself. There's no history, besides that link, there's little in the way of personality, only your appearance is sufficiently covered, and that's thanks to the images. [ Though mun will apologize if Veronika comes off too harshly considering this mun's lack of a proper profile on this account; this is meant to be helpful. ]

My mun would offer her own dressing room, as doing so would remove the need to justify whether or not you're canon, but there's only as much activity as in the other dressing room. [ As she speaks, she crosses her arms and gains a thoughtful expression. ] Agreed, however. It's foolish to wait for information to be given in canon, as they could be waiting a very long time. It would be wiser to research and give information based on that.

[von_ballenstedt]

[It's totally fine, she's forgiven.]

You summed it up rather well. This and studying were one of the few reasons why she had neglected me for so long. Not because they didn't want to play with me but because they only have little to work with from the official source and too much to sum up from historical ones.

[Again, he can only sigh.]

However one thing they are sure with is that I must still be around.

[And a fondness of a certain nation you're heavily tied to.]

... That's beside the point.

[eisenreich]

[ Thank you; she's more the tough love sort and never seems to turn that off. ]

Oh, summarizing history isn't difficult; human nature doesn't change. You'll always find them walking the same paths time after time, and yet so few ever realize they've left a worn trail. Your mundane simply has to find what patterns make you you.

[ She smiles faintly; Veronika was never the very affectionate sort, and it would have taken many years for Brandenburg to get past her work-oriented nature. Still, she's maybe-not-so-secretly fond of the other. ]

[von_ballenstedt]

That I know, but as soon as my mun is confronted with long texts you can hear them whine. And that as history student...

But yes, I imagine that, as soon as they found one that is fit for me, they will be more confident. It will just take a while.

[Siegfried smiles back at her. Having a hard time to deal with affection and just feelings in general seems to be an issue that most of Germania's kids have...]

OMG Hi how are you!?

[wild_kuken]

[Cute as a baby bird little sister here is DISTRACTED by your giant mane and how it is all free flowing (she assumes) when it is summer and it is hot and oh my god she's getting hot just looking at you. In an innocent sisterly way, naturally.]


[So don't mind her sneaking up behind you while you're talking to yourself, and reaching up on her tip toes to try to scoop up some of that hair. She has the intense desire to braid it or something!!]

Keh!! Stop being so tall!!

I'm fine and older and thinking of a new start with Bran! You?

[von_ballenstedt]

[It will be a braided made on especially hot days - and it's a mess to take care off when it rains - one hell of a mess.

But why yes, go ahead, play with it, he knows you are sneaking up, that's years of training. And yes, being tall is nice, the air is fresh up here.]

Sadly you'd have to wait for me to grow old and shrink.

[He chuckles and turns around, then pulls out a hair band.]

All you have to do is ask nicely.

eeeeee! also older and doing well lmao

[wild_kuken]

[Pouts at her sneaking being totally ineffectual, but it's not like she expected any differently. Hard to be in a scaring mood when you're still fighting off the remnants of a two-day hangover....]

Like I have that kind of time!! We'll probably be some kind of awesome space colony by the time that happens! And then we'll be in space and I can just float above you anyway!

[Grabby hands for it! Though she'll have you know her glittery ones would have looked nice in your hair!]

Let me braid your hair! [She's pretty sure that's how you ask nicely in her dialect...]

Yeah, means that it will take some time. that's good to hear! :D

[von_ballenstedt]

[But a wonderful hangover and it continues... What a great way to start the summer.]

That would really make you a little bird.

[Nothing stops her from braiding pigtails. He holds it up high for a moment, wanting to tease her a bit, but eventually he hands it to her.]

Alright.

[He even takes a seat, so she can actually braid it.]

;3;!

[wild_kuken]

[Easily one of the top 5 hangovers for sure.]

A space bird!! Like a galactic eagle or something, kesesese!!

[Braided pigtails would make him look like her Switzerland....a big muscly dark-haired Switzerland...tempting but not really her thing.]

Alright!! In return the awesome me wants to hear stories of what you've been up to! [Will just start by running her fingers through his hair, carefully making sure it's knot and tangle free!]

Aww

[von_ballenstedt]

[One of the Top 5 sounds about right.]

If we were in space I'd be floating too though.

[Sorry for ruining this.

She could have them on top of his head... there were a few possibilities But he wouldn't want to look like her Switzerland, that would be odd.]

Sounds like a good deal.

[For both of them. She is distracted and he gets his hair done.]

Shall I start with the most recent story?

Re: Aww

[wild_kuken]

But if you're a shrinking old man I'd be better at floating!! Probably!

[Boo!

She was thinking something more traditional looking mostly because she's never seen them on a guy before and he's a nice guinea pig!]

Yeah! But something exciting!! The cool me doesn't care about your garden unless I'm taste testing!

[von_ballenstedt]

Who says you wouldn't be a shrinking old lady by then?

[She'd probably be the most adorable granny ever. With a bad mouth.

Ohh... well, she has the freedom to do so. His hair is in her hands.]

Then... die Weltmeisterschaft.
