Germany! Don't worry so much, bro. You'll be fine. My mun says there's a Dressing room that's open now where you can get some practice.

Your brother is there and everything. [Because that is sure to get Ludwig's attention, right? Inverse used to work on Prussia anyway.]

Mein... Bruder, you say?

[Well, congratulations. That sure got his attention.]

What's so "unusual" about where we come from?

Or are you trying to say your mun's not usually into this sort of thing? [That "unusual" came with his best Germany imitation.]

It is more that they have been more into video games and movies now for several years and ended up buying these dvds on a whim after having lost their touch towards the entire genre mostly.

[He frowns. Deeply.]

Also, they rarely pick up new muses. But even among these few... I feel sort of out of place right now. Even if one of them is German.

Ve, I am absolutely sure sure your mundane will do a very good job! Sometimes we do very well in the unusual! Like this one time I tried to make some pasta with some Farfalle~

[A sneer.] West, it's not like it's that different. The principle of playing a character doesn't change much just because they're from a different kind of canon!

Kesesese, then you should consider yourself fortunate to have been picked up at all, right!? You'll get used to being in there! Being a new muse is always kind of weird-feeling! And it's not like you're very used to social situations anyway. Being surrounded by people who make you uncomfortable will do you some good! Get acquainted, you're gonna be seeing a lot of them.

Ah, Italy...

[Pause. Oh, that optimism.]

You think so?

[He still sounds doubtful, though. Still: That optimism...]

[Have some mild grumbling in return.]

Of course you know of all these things, Bruder.

[There may be a slight edge to that last word, but he seems to relax at least a little. Which may already be a lot for him.]

Fortunate or not. You are right, this sure is weird.

Hell yeah, I do! I've been with my mun for years! Trust dein großer Bruder, he's got experience!!

[He's so used to it, it more or less goes over his head. He claps a hand on his shoulder, as though this will make him ease up more.]

Like I said, you'll get used to it. It could be worse! My mun gets new muses with relative ease; there're lots of weird people in here! Mostly from our canon or some alternate version of it, mind you, but still lots and lots of muses!

[The frown changes a little, but still remains.]

Years, hm? Well. There are... Three in here now. Including myself. The oldest, and loudest, seems to be around for about four years, the other two years.

...from that point of view... Maybe I am fortunate after all.

Damn, your mun skipped a year. . . .or a potential muse. One of the two.

Yeah, see!? No fighting for attention on your side of the board! Not that I have to, because I'm my mun's favorite! And if your's isn't into making the others suffer or shoving them in any uncomfortable situations, you're even more lucky!

Uncomfortable... Situations...

[Extended pause.]

...hopefully not...

Kesesese, my precious little brother's face is red at such a vague concept.

Most of them are, though! You should probably bring it up with the others--they'll know if they've been with your mun for years! I'm sure your mundane's a perfectly loving little angel, though. [Patting your shoulder. His tone says he's sure it's the exact opposite. He has little faith in muns' ability to be generous. Or maybe he just wants to intimidate him. Teasing is part of his big brother duty!]

[Well, he doesn't entirely buy your words anyway. So enjoy the ongoing frown. At least he's repressing the urge to swat your hand away right now but rather endures all that physical contact.]

I may. Danke. For your advice...

So, if you don't mind me asking, what have you been doing all this time anyway?

[He only expects to be believed when Germany can't prove him wrong anyway. He's just doing his duty of being a bit of a pest.]

Bitte!

Huh? Whaddyou mean what've I been doing? You want my life story or something?

Yeah! So chin up, or I'll go all Italy on ya and hug you till you feel confident in something!

[Considering how both of them are airheads, it shouldn't surprise anyone that they share confidence boosting techniques.]

Of course not. But you said yourself that you've been... Around this place for a while already. Or is dwelling in your mun's headspace all you do these days?

...!

[Backing away carefully.]

I don't think that will be necessary, America.

I haven't been around this place; we just got here kinda recently. But we used to play a lot on the other place--the blue and white one. Still do, but not as much as we used to--but the place we used to play got really slow, is all! My mun hasn't been playing me as much as she used to, either, so I spend a lot of time in her headspace, but she also does one-on-one stuff with her friends, sometimes.

Also, we mod

aphetaliadr here, and the one on--uh--LJ(well, she and her you do,) so hopefully she'll get to do more stuff when that picks up! And, hey, hanging out in her headspace can be fun! She has all sorts of fascinating thoughts--when she isn't sleeping. And I help her out with stuff, too, like getting off her ass and getting shit done!

I see.

So even if they don't send us somewhere we are not bound to boredom and idleness?

Of course not! Well, I guess it depends on how much they think of you. But if you want attention and you don't just generate it yourself, you don't have any right to complain! It's just like life, West! You can find lots of things to do--but you still have to find them, they don't usually just walk right up to you! I'm sure you'd have enough fun looking over your mun's shoulder and telling her what to do, if she doesn't send you anywhere!

...hrn.

[Considering this mun's messy desk, he may rather avoid looking over this particular shoulder, really.]

I seem to have several things to try or await in that case.

[He just flops down on the ground for now, however. It's been a long day already and there's so much to get used to still. So just watching and resting his head in his palm seems like a legit option.]

[The other one's probably no better, one would assume.]

Yeah! Like I said; this is something you have to get used to! I'd give you a manual as a welcoming gift, but there isn't one. You just have to wait and see what your mun does. And try and get her attention if you have an idea or feel ignored or something!

[He considers continuing to bother him by sitting on his shoulders or something, but that'd end in another suplex, wouldn't it. He'd be asking for it. And as much fun as swinging like that is and sometimes even the pain's pretty funny, it hurts especially without carpet.]

[There's a cat sleeping on that side, so that's an.improvement at least.]

A manual?

[Now wouldn't that be convenient? Too bad that hope gets destroyed right away.]

I will manage without one, I guess.

[Or just pester you with more questions, yes. Preferably before you pester him into another fight.]

They may find it bothersome to just ignore me anyway.

They generally don't, I've found. Mine picks up characters all over the place without thinking any of it through. I've found it's best to just ignore it, doesn't seem like I'm going anywhere.

And you've got the right idea when it comes to those games. I've been stuck in one from the beginning, and it's not getting any better.

/casually checks out comm

Heeee. I get really restless about it. Like a lack of immediate activity is a bad sign.

I'm slow at times, but it looks interesting. First DR aside from DM... hmm...

It's nothing you'd need to give immediate responses to. Thedressingroom moved, too. Maybe others.

RL and work tend to keep me busy, so backtagging clearly is my clue
