it's pretty lonely at achtenberg

Here we are again... You thought that the third time would be the charm, and we've wound up with a dead end. Again. Perhaps it just wasn't meant to be.

Doesn't stop you from holding onto hope, does it? Well, I suppose I can admire your spirit, Milady. I'm not going anywhere. I'll wait to see if you can make a miracle. I hope, for your sake, that it's not too-little-too-late.

Addendum: Oh, now. Why did you post this?! Don't do that!

[That makes Prussia smirk again. England and her antisocial ways, really. She turns so they can talk properly again.]

Or you can look at the bright side more and just... You know... [She shrugs. Romance, love--topics Prussia is clumsy at. She even flushes a little as she tries to get the words out while not being able to meet England's eyes.] ...You'll find someone who can be better at cheering you up and stuff... [And would stay by England's side in a way that would make her happy among other things.]

[grr. how does she even respond to that? does she say that she's tried it over and over again and it hasn't happened? that she's getting tired of sticking her foot in her mouth?]

Of course I can. You're terrible at making anyone feel better.

[weiss_teufelin]

Oi, I try. That's definitely a lot compared to what other people do...

[Like France. Or Spain in her most insensitive. The rest of the world when they're feeling vindictive and cruel. Prussia actually pouts a little. Really, this is what she gets for trying to make you feel better.]

[she's grateful, don't worry. but she can't show it right now. can't get all mushy again]

Well, if you really want to make me feel better, you'll buy me a beer. I want to forget about my stupid Lady.

[weiss_teufelin]

[She snorts, definitely not lady-like.]

Ladies don't drink beer.

[She isn't Prussia if she doesn't take a jab like that. Her good will hardly comes easy when she's also being given a hard time.]

[britainsbiscuits]

Then you're not a lady, are you?

[weiss_teufelin]

'Never said I was, but you always insisted you were.

[britainsbiscuits]

Are you going to buy me that beer, or not? [let's get drunk and laugh about that idiot France]

[weiss_teufelin]

You should be buying me a fucking beer. This cheering up business is hard work!

[But she leads her away so they can get smashed. Who gets to pay can be settled later.]
