watch the majestic teal deer pass!

[he's quiet for a while, pressing his fingertips to his lips in thought while he looks off distantly. finally he speaks]

They've gotten to you, haven't they? Finally, all those silly little insecurities have forced their way into your mind, and you're unhappy. Again. Not that I'm surprised. This always happens to you, doesn't it, my Lady? And, in the same way, you've decided to make a run for it. The weight is too much for you to bear.

You've done it before. You never stick to anything, do you? See, even I am causing you to feel disgusted. I am not your enemy. We've been with each other for several years, and I have both enjoyed and mourned over the events we've gone through together. I'm... thankful for your loyalty, I suppose... All the studying and watching and reading and asking questions. You've immersed yourself into my culture and history, despite knowing that there are others who know more about me, or who would criticise you for not crossing your T's and dotting your I's.

[a light sigh, pinches the bridge of his nose]

Are you really certain about this? Of course, I don't want to add too much stress to your life. You're already a nervous wreck. A few things have toppled you over the edge within the past few days, it seems. I know it is not my duty to apologise, but I'm sorry, nonetheless.

I hope that doing this is the right thing for you. For now, I will remain by your side, since you depend on me. But not because I depend on you, or anything.

[He chuckles, green eyes dancing with his laughter.]

That is what she says. One day, she thinks she wants to be in a game, to make friends, meet new people, have one of us have a home to call our own, but then she gets distracted. And then she doesn't want to again, gets discouraged, gets intimidated. It's very strange and somewhat sad and confusing.

Ay, [A sigh and an almost rueful smile before he finally gives in to the urge and leans an arm a little by England's shoulder. The gesture is of course familiar and friendly, his smile and gaze to the other as warm and open as always.] and she thinks she has lost me and I am not surprised. She has you, many different yous, keeping her constant company and of course we are very different, you and I.

[unionjackoff]

[England allows Spain to lean on him]

Yes, that... surprises me a lot. I think my Lady has lost a lot of confidence in that regard. Though that is not your Lady's fault. She's just not good with competition. Shame, really.

[si_espana]

Or she just prefers different things. It's not so bad, really. I don't mind it. [He smiles to England.] I get to talk to you sometimes and I have lots of company here. That is good.

[unionjackoff]

[he meant HIS mun is bad with competition. but, yes, there is also the fact that they don't have similar interests. England generally likes chatting with Spain anyway. and that Devil seems to be friends with WW2 England]

If she does go to a new game, would she give you the opportunity to go? Or... one of the other Englands?

[si_espana]

[Competition with what? At least they have these moments, yes.]

I guess it would depend on what kind of place it is. I've been the only one who has been in games, so maybe I'm the easy choice? No se, I don't know! It's hard to say!

[unionjackoff]

Mmn... [rubs his cheek] Would you ever want to? Play in another game?

Time for bed! I'll tag back later~ /hugs

[si_espana]

I would! Yes, definitely. [Oh Spain, were the Mun as sociable as you.] Though I wish it would be a game I would like too.

[unionjackoff]

[tilts his head and smiles at Spain's enthusiasm. for a moment, he wishes they could be in a game together, a place where they could get along........... oh but no one would ever know about that!]

Very rarely are there games we like. [a soft chuckle]

[si_espana]

We must never give up hope! Inglaterra, there will be a place where we can be happy someday. You'll see! [Spain and his optimism. Of course.] I can spend my day harvesting tomatoes, cooking, enjoying my siesta! And you can... Well, whatever it is you enjoy doing!

[unionjackoff]

[that optimism fighting his pessimism...]

Well, if you just want to do the same things you do everyday, perhaps you should just stay home.

[si_espana]

[Spain laughs at that, not at all deterred by England and his droll response.] Maybe! But it can be done in other places too, yes? Or we can go on vacation somewhere and do something else!

[unionjackoff]

Vacation? Hmmm... [thinking about it]

[si_espana]

Where would you like to go on vacation, hm? [England's been known to visit his house and... Wreck drunken havoc...]

[unionjackoff]

[he's trying to think of a place where the person won't annoy him. South America would be fun but... all of Spain's children... mocking him...]

What about India?

[si_espana]

India sounds like a good idea! I haven't been there in a while either... [His Royal Family seems to like India a lot and they've taken him along on trips, especially when it's only the Queen who is visiting.]

[unionjackoff]

Right, then. You and I will take a vacation in India. [now that he doesn't have to stay on the island, he wants to go somewhere and just chill] ...But not because I want to be with you. I'm going for me!

[si_espana]

Hm? [He looks to him at that, smiling curiously.] No one said you have to go there because you want to be with me, Inglaterra.

[unionjackoff]

Right! Because I don't!

[si_espana]

[Spain chuckles.] You can be so strange sometimes.

[unionjackoff]

I'm not the one who wants to join a game just so I can do the same blasé things every day.

[si_espana]

So what would you rather do when you join a game, then?

[unionjackoff]

... [looks down] Lots of things, I suppose. I like to learn about other worlds and creatures.

[si_espana]

So you would like new worlds to explore. [That does sound fun.]

[unionjackoff]

A-ah... yes. That's right.

[si_espana]

Aren't most games like that, though? But then they turn out dangerous and everything, yes?
