Long time no see for an old muse on a new journal!

[fusilli]

  Ehehe! Ciao, Mun! How are you tonight? We haven't talked for a long while, huh? Maybe we should catch up over dinner sometime! You're not bad at making sauce for an American, so you can cook the dinner, and I'll make dessert! Do you still like rice pudding? I think I'll make a rice pudding.

Ah - wait, wait! Let's do it after a canon review, okay? Ve, If you don't have work tomorrow then that's definitely what you should do...

[ ...for once, Italy is doing the sensible thing? ]

It's good that you suggested a canon review, Italy-kun. They can be very useful, especially if your mun is thinking about applying you to a game.

[ and because he hasn't seen Italy around in a while ]

...It's been some time. Have you been well?

[fusilli]

Ve! Ciao, Japan! I'm fine, how are you?

[He grins.] She would worry too much if she didn't, though! And she already worries about everything else, which is no good in the first place. Worrying makes you cranky!

[deutschlandlied]

Hallo, Italy. Reconnecting I see? that's good! I've been doing much of the same myself.

[fusilli]

Germany! Ciao, how are you? [He's literally bouncing on his heels, he's so happy to see his friends!]

[deutschlandlied]

Good! I see you are too?

[ It was good to see him too, he pats his shoulder fondly... though it was a little difficult with him bouncing. ]

I've just been getting ready for winter.

[jipangu]

I've been well... when you don't consider the game I've been sent to, that is.

I agree, worrying isn't very good either. It's not very enjoyable, right?

[fusilli]

Why is that? Is it a scary game, Japan? Why would your mun send you there?!

It isn't! All worrying does is make you sick, and it's not fun to be sick! You can't play with your friends or anything!

[fusilli]

Si! I'm good, very good!

Oh wow! It IS getting closer to wintertime, isn't it? There's some snow on the ground here already, but it's not enough to make a snowman or anything like that.

[jipangu]

[ he should have figured Italy would ask about it in more detail- ]

Ah, no, it's not exactly scary, please do not worry. It's very peaceful there. It's just slightly... worrying, I suppose.

It is not fun to be ill, I agree.

[deutschlandlied]

Really? That sounds nice. I struggle with snow but it tends to make everything more beautiful, I guess it's a small price to pay. Anyways I'm glad to see you're ok! ... seriously. You are taking care of yourself, aren't you?

[fusilli]

Ve, I am! You don't even need to worry a little bit about me, Germany, I promise!

[fusilli]

But why is it worrying? Can't you tell me? You're not there all alone, are you?

[jipangu]

It's rather embarrassing to say...

Though, I am not alone here. Finland-san, Norway-san, and Sweden-san are here, and Germany-san might join soon. Someone who looks like America-san might be joining as well, but I don't quite think they're America-san...

Anyhow, please do not worry about that, either.

[fusilli]

Oh...well, alright then, if you say so Japan.

If Germany does come, you guys should be fine no matter what it is that's so embarrassing. That's what I think.

[jipangu]

...Yes, that is what I think, too.

[ he can't help but smile at that ]

Outside of that, as I said, it is quite peaceful there. ...Maybe Germany-san will even be able to relax, for a change.

[deutschlandlied]

Well...ja, I know you're capable of taking care of yourself. At the same time, I can't not worry about you.

[fusilli]

Well...okay...but don't worry TOO much, okay? It's like I told Japan, you'll get sick if you worry too much!

[fusilli]

Germany, relaxing? I dunno about that, but it would sure be good for him, huh?

[And then, out of the blue,] Are there a lot of pretty girls where you are, Japan?

[jipangu]

It would be very good for him, I think. I'd rather he relax --

[ WHY'S HE ASKING THAT -- ]

...You could say that, I suppose...

[fusilli]

[Why WOULDN'T he ask that?]

Oh, wow! Lucky you, Japan! And is there good food?

[jipangu]

[ point ]

[ at least that question is less embarrassing, never mind the "lucky you" which he will pretend he didn't hear ]

...Yes, you could say the food here is nice, too.

There are quite a few restaurants of varying types run by the citizens here, it seems.

[ he's even going to try to apply for a job at one himself, he thinks. ]

[fusilli]

Really? What kinds?

[jipangu]

...A mix of everything, one could say.

There's not many specific places here when it comes to certain types of meals, but quite a few of them have chefs from various countries.

For example, there might not be a Japanese restaurant, but that doesn't necessarily mean you can't find Japanese food here, since many citizens are from my country. It'd probably be the same in your case, as well.

[deutschlandlied]

I exercise well each day, and have a good diet...

[ ok, the last part not so much ]

I am perfectly healthy.

[fusilli]

But that won't matter if you get sick from worrying, Germany!

[fusilli]

That sounds really cool, Japan! And really lucky, too.

Huh...so if I was there, I could find lots of people from my home too?

[jipangu]

It's not really...

I'm not sure if you could say "lots"... - though, at least you probably could find some citizens from your home as well.

[ wait -- ]

What do you mean by "if I was there"?

[fusilli]

What do you mean, what do I mean? Japan, you're not being silly, are you?

It's like...what's the word? A...oh! A "hypothetical situation". That's right, isn't it?

[deutschlandlied]

Well, I suppose it's possible to get sick from worry... but it's not, bad? I just ah... I care.

[jipangu]

I am not attempting to be "silly", if that is what you are asking.

[ ... ]

It'd be the right term to use, but I wonder why you are describing the situation hypothetically in the first place, Italy-kun.

[fusilli]

I'm just trying to understand how your game works. Was that a bad example?

[fusilli]

[He giggles.] I know you do! I care about you, too, you're my best friend!

[jipangu]

Ah, it wasn't bad --

[ now he's feeling guilty ]

...Just, this game is more demanding than you'd probably think based on what I've said so far.

[guardianjoker4]

I'm starting to think my mun needs a little canon review, herself...
