[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!

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!

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!

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.

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...

[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.

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!

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!

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]

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.]

I wouldn't need your permission!

[Could be worse. He could have flubbed it like England.] See? Now you don't get an excuse to call any child I'd raise a sissy.

At least let me steal his cannoncar - uh, tank - first.

Fine, I guess he wouldn't be as sissy as some other countries' kids might be. It's mostly because of my awesome parenting, though.

...It's all yours. [What the hell Prussia]

Of course he wouldn't! We turned out great, didn't we?

Goddamn right we did! . . . of course, I never really saw opa as a kid, but anyone related to my awesome self has got to be awesome!

See? You really have no excuse going around insulting our future children!

Our future children. Oh my God...

[Just a second, processing the mental image of raising a bunch of little Prussias]

I'm not sure, but I'm a bit scared.

[He is not even going to think about the mental images, he is just going to repress it like he always does.]

. . . maybe it's one of this room's tricks? Oh man, they already have us talking about babies, I'm not falling for any more of their witchcraft!

[It's her turn to pull at the door handle this time, grabbing and yanking]

If it was really witchcraft they'd have possessed our actual bodies long before we woke up here, genius.
