Maaaaybe looking for homes...

Yo, mun— H-Hey! I'm talkin' to you! Where are you going? Stop! Hey, look! You're not goin' anywhere today until you finish everything. All my tags, all of Alfred's tags, all of Cecil's tags, all the posts you said you were going to make and never did, all the new posts you're telling people you're going to make and haven't started yet, everyone's icons— Yeah, those job applications probably need to be filled out too if you want a call-back...

Mun! You're starting to make Canadia look real productive by comparison! What is going on here?! Don't make me go dig Ludwig out of his man-cave to run you through hoops!

And y'think you can maybe seriously start thinking about actually putting one of us somewhere? You have resources! Stop being so negative about everything! Grab your buddies and take them along! ...Well, okay, so maybe just one at a time, since, uh, they all just have England, but— Come on! We're getting kinda moldy over here. Not pretty. Please? You know you want to give it a try...

Okay! Sleep, then roll up your sleeves! Whoa! Hey, no! No, you're sending the kid there first— not me. I'm older, so I get to be picky. The kid gets tossed up to the Hotel first. It's already been decided! Now go the fuck to sleep. No, you don't need another bedtime story. Ugh. Where is that book...

Mmn... [It's not really offensive. It's just that he's used to being teased when someone calls him cute, so it's just a reflex. Plus it embarrasses him. He doesn't struggle under America's hold either as it's gentle.]

...Really? [He asks her cautiously.]

[unalienable]

Of course!

[ America lets go of his arms then in favor of gently rubbing his head, since he seems to be pretty okay with her touching him. She smiles at him. ]

Why do you think it's not? There's nothing wrong with being adorable!

[ittybittyarcher]

[He flinches a little at her rubbing at his head, but still he stays put. It feels kind of nice.]

It draws attention to you...

[And it's usually not friendly attention, especially in his case. Well, there's France, but he's a foppish idiot and England doesn't like him.]

[unalienable]

[ America hums quietly in contemplation. ]

Lemme guess... France, huh?

[ She sighs and gives him a wistful little smile. ]

It's also a weapon though. If you use it just right, people will let their guard down around you, giving you the upper hand.

[ittybittyarcher]

A weapon?

[He glances over to his back on instinct. No quiver of arrows or bow. The Mundane had him leave them earlier as she says he won't need them. It's strange not to have them, however. And then Amelia says something about being cute as a weapon...]

[unalienable]

[ She laughs. ]

Well, maybe you'll get it more when you're older.

[ittybittyarcher]

[That makes him frown. Look at those eyebrows scrunch together. Yes, definitely a bitty England.]

People keep telling me that.

[And they do! And it's frustrating! Why can't he get bigger faster!]
