Mun hasn't been RPing lately. That makes mun sad.

[failiciano]

Mm, but, you can try now, right? I mean, you've still got the old tags from your friends and some newer ones you need to get to, too. . . ! Ve, you know your friends will reply if you get back to them.

You don't want to drop the tags--we all know that! I think you just needed a break! Even fun things get tiring after a while! Ve, but getting back "into the groove" is the problem now, right. . . ? Ve, ve, but that's with the old tags! New ones are fine, right? Even if some of them are kind of new. . . .

You just need better encouragement! You're tense and stressing yourself out over something you should be enjoying!! Just relax and do it! You know you'll enjoy it!

But turn off that awful German music, first, it isn't helping you any. No wonder you're so stressed out lately, listening to all of this. . . . Even English would help you more. . . !

Maybe a nice, warm bath would help you, too. . .ve. . .you just woke up from a nap. . .who naps at midnight, though!? You should go back to sleep! [And waste precious staring-at-tags-and-fretting-about-doing-them time? Never!] B-but if you go to sleep, I can go back to sleep, too!! I can't stay up if my mun won't!!! Ve, you're getting sleepy again already! [You aren't helping me fix my sleep schedule at all, Italy.]

Oh little Italy. Long time no see as America would say, even if you are a boy this time.

[failiciano]

Ciao, ciao, Bambolina! Ah, it must've been a long time ago; I'd definitely remember such a pretty face!! Ve, but I've always been a boy? I had to wear a dress when I was little, though, and a lot of people thought I was a girl, too.

[sensual_soviet]

Are you saying you don't remember me? I'm Russia.

[failiciano]

E-eh? I-impossibile, Russia is a big, scary man! Not nearly as lovely as you!! And not a woman!

[sensual_soviet]

And I remember Italy being a girl with longer hair.

Perhaps we are from different universes like in one of America's science fiction movies.

[failiciano]

But you remember me, too! You said so! Aah, but I bet I'm a really pretty girl. . . !! Oh! You're definitely much more beautiful than I am--would be--though!

Eh? Oh! Maybe it's something like that, sì! Because you definitely feel like I do--like a nation and not a human! And you talk a lot like Russia, too--even more than his sister!

[sensual_soviet]

You sound a lot like Italy too.

And yes I suppose you're a pretty girl. We talk sometimes but I keep getting the feeling she's scared of me.

[failiciano]

Of course! Because I'm Italy!

Whaat? I'm sure she isn't! Italians are really strong and brave, you know--even the girls!! [Hits his own chest a bit, as if this will prove his point somehow] There's nothing scary about you! I'm sure you're just imagining things~

[sensual_soviet]

Maybe you're right.

[Italy still knows how to make the girls smile it seems.]

If your mun wants to play a little to get back "in the groove" mine wouldn't mind playing in a meme so we can play together.

[failiciano]

Mm! I'm sure everything's fine--you just need to get used to each other, after all! [Pats her shoulder!]

[If he's good at anything that isn't cooking and the arts, it's women. 13% success rate!!]

Really? That'd be great!! We'd love to! Ah, but she's never played in one before--but some people she knows have played in them and said they're fun, so it must be good!

Oh by the way do you use AIM? If you do you're welcome to have my AIM for plotting xD

[sensual_soviet]

They are fun if you choose the right ones.

[Well at least he was good at something.]

Your mun can go here and pick a meme: http://bakerstreet.dreamwidth.org/

My mun doesn't mind whatever they want to play.

I do! Though, as of late, I haven't logged into my messengers all that often, but I'll try to!

[failiciano]

[My AIM's Tarafishes!]

I don't want to do any scary ones! [But that's Italy for you.]

Aaah~! So many! Ve, she's not very picky--she's bad at picking and choosing things like that, so it's up to you and your mun, really! Ve, a simple one would be best--which one would be simple? [Wouldn't want to overwhelm the poor mun or anything.]

Now if it's not my favorite username... Long time no see~

[potatomasher]

Ah, Italy. Taking care of your mun I see.

[But there is a faint scolding in his voice.]

Now what exactly is wrong with listening to German music?

o/ And if it isn't one of mine! It has been a while. /fell off the RP earth or something

[failiciano]

Mm! Ve, but she's still awake and it's six in the morning where she is, now. . . .

[Leans away from a bit. Subtly!]

German is scary, Germany! [Conveniently, as I reached this part of the tag this song came on. . . .]

It happens. As long as you're still well and healthy everything's fine.

[potatomasher]

Then tell her to get some sleep. Don't beg or whine at her but make it an order!

[And... He's glaring. A little. Until his expression shifts into some kind of uneasy confusion. Which, of course, is hard to even make out. But his tone suggests it quite well.]

You think so? [And excuse me while that song made me laugh X) ~ quite fitting, indeed.]

Yeah, everything's about the same as before. How're you?

[failiciano]

I-I can't! I don't think she'd listen to me! And I'm not good at giving orders, Germany!

[He still looks like he's glaring to him, but he can make out the confusion in his voice, luckily.]

M-mm! It's harsh and scary and angry-sounding all the time, even if you say nice things! [Even Austrian German, and he understands that better than standard German. . . .]

Working, RPing, piling up video games and doujinshi. Can't complain, really.

[potatomasher]

[He lets out an exasperated groan.] You need to learn to be more authoritarian, Italy! They may not be aware of it and even deny it, but these mundanes depend on us to act as their voice of reason! If we don't tell them to sleep, they will stay up all night and consume unhealthy amounts of coffee. If we don't slow down their thoughts, they will rush headfirst into ridiculous decisions that usually make our lives much worse. Now put your foot down already, Italy!

[Beat. Well. He coughs...]

Ah... [...and doesn't know how to respond to that. He doesn't think his language is that bad.] I... I apologize. [Just don't ask him what for exactly...]

Sounds like a good time to me. /o/

[failiciano]

B-but my mun doesn't even like coffee!!! [Missing the point? I think so.] And she went to sleep on her own, but then she didn't want to get up a bunch of times. But it's Saturday, so that's okay!

[He's a Romance language-speaker. Of course your language sounds unpleasant to him.] Ve? Why? [Too late, he's asking anyway. It's not like he expects you to speak Italian for him or anything, it's just that German's all harsh and tends to get loud and it isn't pretty like Italian. You didn't make your language.]

BTW your inner Prussia might like what I bought: http://i.imgur.com/Yp7jR.jpg

[potatomasher]

No, it's not okay! A well regulated sleep schedule is important! You need to look out for that sort of thing and pay attention unless you deliberately want to risk their health!

[Of course he's overdoing it. What else did you expect?

But then he fidgets a bit uneasily for a moment and looks away. Even if he tried, he doesn't know much Italian and it would probably sound even worse than German coming from him.] I... I didn't mean to scare you.

. . .shfkjsdhfjdsh that is a Freidrich the Great cookie cutter HE'LLLIKEITEVENMOREIFYOUBAKECOOKIES

[failiciano]

I-it is well-regulated! It's just that it's also really off from the way she wants it!! She's been trying to fix it, but it's kind of hard. But she should be allowed to just sleep whenever she wants to, right? If your body's tired, you should sleep!

[It'd at least make Italy giggle at his funny accent and mispronunciation! But Italy's also the one who insists on trying to speak German at Germany's house, so he's bringing it on himself anyway.] But Germany always scares me and it doesn't usually bother him at all. Germany's just a bit of a scary guy sometimes! Oh, but sometimes he isn't! Sometimes he's really nice and funny and not too scary at all! But being scary is part of Germany, so I guess it's sort of okay. [nodnod]

Exactly. Most ridiculous thing I bought in Potsdam lol - And cookies totally will happen X)

[potatomasher]

If you maintain a decent sleep schedule you won't simply get tired. Though... I have to admit I'm not entirely sure if that counts for you as well. [Because Italy sleeps a lot and still seems sleepy most of the time.]

[They should just each stick to their own language, really. But that aside, he'll just stare at Italy. Because... How many times did he just call him scary now?!] Hmm. So you suggest I just keep scaring you and that that's okay?

[failiciano]

Wh-what!? No, no, i-it isn't okay!! But it's also just part of Germany being Germany, so I-I guess you can't really help it. Which is okay!! [Italy is the pinnacle of sense, you know.]

[potatomasher]

Wait now. First it's okay, then it's not okay only to be okay again a sentence later? Italy! Settle for one option and be consistent with that already!! [Whoops. And there he goes, starting to get really angry.]

[failiciano]

V-veeeeeee! G-Germanyyyyy!! You're scaring me, a-and that's not okaaaaay!! [Neutral-scary Germany is okay! Angry-scary Germany is not!!]

[potatomasher]

Italy! You did it again!

[failiciano]

But I only said it once this tiiiiiiime!!!!

[potatomasher]

Yes. But by saying it's not okay this time, you again negated your previous okay!

[failiciano]

B-but it's okay because I know Germany can't help it!!! But being scar in general isn't okay!! L-like--G-Germany doesn't know he's being scary, so it's okay because he can't help it, but he isn't chasing me around and trying to scare me, which wouldn't be okay!! But it'd be even more okay if Germany would try his best not to be scary!! Sì? S-sì??

...and then I left for a convention for three days...

[potatomasher]

[We're sorry to announce that the German you're trying to calm just will explode in three, two, one...]

ITALY!! STOP. IT!

I don't know where I've been lately. But I hope you had fun!

[failiciano]

[B-but he doesn't have a Gerbomb shelter!!]

O-OKAY!! I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY!! I DIDN'T MEAN TO TELL YOU HOW SCARY YOU WERE!! OR THAT IT'S EVER OKAY!! IT ISN'T OKAY!! AT ALL!! EVER!! PLEASE DON'T YELL SO LOUDLY ANYMORE!! IT'S HURTING MY EARS AND SCARING ME, EVEN IF GERMANY'S ALWAYS VERY LOUD AND SCARY ALREADY!!! [And this is Italy, chasing his(your?) tail. Around and around and around. . . .]

Oh, I had. It was a good weekend.

[potatomasher]

[And that's about when Germany will suddenly reach out to grab the front of your shirt and quite literally growl angrily right into your face, Italy.]

[miarrendo]

Ciao! My mun has been worried about your mun! She's okay, right? Other me~

[failiciano]

Mm! She's okay now that she's gotten to play a bit--don't worry! I think she'll be better soon, other me! A-and other me's mun, too! [Nods encouragingly. No more fretting, other him!!]

[miarrendo]

I'm glad she's able to play too! That strange England is bothering me veeee

[failiciano]

Ve? Strange England? Wh-what strange England? England's already pretty strange. . . .

[miarrendo]

You know... the one that's a pirate and likes shiny things! [a pause] But you are right, they are all scary...

[failiciano]

Ve. . .oh!! That England!!! W-well, we aren't too shiny, right!? So we should be okay!! As long as he doesn't try and cook for you, it should be fine! Ah, but maybe you should hide anything shiny you have. . . . [getting on that though! /rereading threads so she can reply to them properly!]

[miarrendo]

Si, I have a lot of shiny toys! Aah! No wonder he's been harassing me! [he clings to the other Italy because he's there veeee]

[failiciano]

W-wait, don't cling to me!! [Even though he's clinging right back, anyway. . . .] I-I don't want him coming after me, too!! Just tell him you don't have any!! Or tell him that there're shinier things somewhere else and run while he's distracted!! [May not have shiny things, but he can't protect you from Shiny Pirate England]

[miarrendo]

[m-maybe they can get Germany to protect them! yeah. now he's all in a panic for absolutely no reason]

That sounds like a great idea! Buono!

No sad! D: /fusososososo~

[statusquodebt]

[ Ah, yes, staring-at-tags-and-fretting-about-doing-them is a power attack that America has seen his mun do a lot, especially in the last few weeks. Of course, family drama will do that to you. ]

Dude... why would your mun listen to German music to relax?

[ His mun listens to a lot of German music too — well, nothing real famous though — abut she doesn't listen to it to chill out; she listens to it to get pumped up! ]

\;3;/ I feel better now! /was out all of yesterday as usual

[failiciano]

[Family drama is a good reason not to do things. America's mun is excused.]

Well, she wasn't listening to it to relax. It was just what was playing! And it would've kept playing for a while if I hadn't gotten her to stop!

[There are plenty of calm German songs in Italy's mun's arsenal, but they're still in German and as far as Italy's concerned it won't do her any good no matter how relaxed it is.]

/casually waltzes in here like it's not weeks later ¬_¬;;

[statusquodebt]

[ It doesn't stop one from freaking out though. ]

What was it? Was it that song about butts again?

[ Yes, he knows that's Austria's song, but still. It counts! ...To America, at least. ]
