[The rich scent of roses was too overpowering for the entire thing to be a dream. Waking up with a full bouquet in your arms tended to drive that fact home. In fact, waking up with an armful of roses was not a bad start to the morning-- or evening, for that matter.

Except that it was hard to tell what time of the day it was, what's with the lack of natural light. Pricking your fingers and bare neck on the thorns took away from the pleasantness, as well.]

Owwwwwwww!

PROBABLY he just doesn't think about these things okay

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

Ugh, trapped in a room with that sissy aristocrat? I'd rather die. No, wait, I'd rather kill him first.

. . . or maybe it's haunted and that's why we're stuck here. Shit, I knew I should have stayed Catholic! How the fuck did it go again - exorcizamus te, omnis immundus spiritus, omnis satanica potestas . . . something something something get the fuck out ghost or I'll kick your ass!

Let's hope he doesn't find the vibrator

[Sits quietly on the floor in mild fascination. On the one hand, she has the perfect chance to break Prussia's brain. On the other hand, the idea is too mortifying.]




Ghosts scare you, huh?

oh god, he'd probably think it was some kind of weapon

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

Do not! I'm not scared of anything! It's just that witchcraft is totally cheating, and people who die should stay dead.

The possibilities scares me. Bzz bzz.

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

If it's really witchcraft, then why are you trapped here with me and not some unholy monster?

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

What's the difference? And anyway, the bed is shaking and the door won't open - it's definitely witchcraft! Oh my god, I knew they'd try to possess my awesome body one day!

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

Did you just call me a monster?

[The only reason there isn't a frying pan flying towards him is because the rose bouquet is nearer and within reach]

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

[Splutters when the bouquet smacks him in the face.]

Dammit Hungary, what the hell was that for?! And it's not like you're doing much to prove me wrong!

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

[Frustration meter rising, so she reaches for a pillow to throw at him next]

Because you're so thick! This stupid town is mocking us, with the flowers and the stupid bed and the stupid food! It's expecting us to act like a couple!

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

A coup -- wha -- like an actual--








[. . . REDOUBLING HIS EFFORTS TO BREAK DOWN THE DOOR.]

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

[Deflates a bit a she listens to the rising volume of noises made by someone intent on crushing every bone of his body against the door.]

It's not like I'm going to bite you! Just because we're trapped here together doesn't mean I'm agreeing to anything of the sort.

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

[He doesn't stop charging at the door.]

It's Mayfield - the bastards probably won't let us go until we do what they want. [A horrible thought occurs to him.] Have you noticed there aren't any babies here? What if we're the ones who are supposed to --

[He can't even finish the sentence, making a disgusted sound and attempting to put his foot through the door.]

[goes very visibly green at the proclamation and starts buttoning that jacket as fast as human fingers can allow her.]

Just where do you get these diabolical thoughts? What's your mind wired on anyway?! That's one thought process I'd never want to-- I'm going to be sick...

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

But babies are cute...

1/2

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

Th-they are really cute . . .

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

But there's no way in hell I'm making a micronation with anyone! And it's not like I want to -- that ever, but I wouldn't put anything past this fucking place!

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

Oh really? Then they'll have to torture me with something more than a nice hotel and roses to get me to do it! And what's wrong with having babies with me? Not awesome enough for you, is that it?

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

What about being stuck in this room for the rest of your life? And in that -- [He waves vaguely at her outfit, still not looking anywhere near her.]

And I don't want babies with anyone! That's sissy shit! Besides, you'd just try to raise our kid to be like that weak aristocrat instead of awesome like me!

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

Can't be worse than living with Russia [the memory is enough to make her shudder]

I'll let you know that no boy of mine would go around being proper! I'd let him beat up the other kids and get himself dirty and he'd be the cutest thing ever! Just like me when I was his age!

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

You lived with that fatass? When? Wait, are you talking about that goddamn Common town that was here for a week?

Hahaha, I was way cuter than you were! You did used to be pretty cool, though.

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

After the last war. [she falls quiet at the dark phase of her recent memory]

You weren't cuter than me! You didn't even bathe as much as I did! Not that I had much time to...

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

[Just gives her a confused stare.] What are you talking about? I was there when we divided up territory, I would have known if Russia tried anything with you!

I was totally cuter! And it's not my fault I thought baths would make me more vulnerable to demons back then! Besides, I was too busy kicking ass to care about shit like that.

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

It's after your time, alright? [purposefully avoids bringing up the grim aftermath of the war]

Well! I was cute and I kicked ass! And my kids would turn out just like me, and I'd teach them to be strong enough so no one ever could take advantage of them, and they wouldn't need anyone else to defend them!

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

Oh, one of the imaginary future things. Can't imagine what you must have done to get seized by Russia. Is he still being a creepy bastard? I'll kick his ass!

Hey, you needed me to defend you, didn't you? And if they were my kids, of course they'd be super strong and super awesome and super cute, just like me!

[muskatli.livejournal.com]

He's nothing I can't handle here! [leaves out the ordeal of being a satellite nation in her time]

You have uses, I'm not going to lie. But I don't want my child to submit to anyone ever again. [not like her, she doesn't add]

[armywithcountry.livejournal.com]

Hey, if you want a chance to beat him down, get in line!

Well, obviously my kid won't be submitting to anyone. I'll teach him how to destroy anyone who even tries! Doesn't matter how many come at him, he'll kill them all! [someone is still a little bitter about the Seven Years war.]
