[Romano's only at the center to feed his pokémon after a few rounds of "training" (which mostly consisted of Romano hiding from a team of pokémon that were up for a game of cat and mouse). He's ready to ask the Pretty Tall Nurse for food when he heard a sound so unholy the hair on his neck stood on end. And damn it all to hell, it was coming from the gear as well - ...and it was just China. Greaaaaaaaaat. He answers the gear, momentarily forgetting the Nurse.]

What the hell is wrong with you now?!

[Action] gochuugoku July 4 2011, 23:01:09 UTC

It's gone! It's gone, aru!

[Insert hysterical Mandarin Chinese. China doesn't even bother picking up the gear, he just keeps yelling.]

[Action] piccolo_tomate July 4 2011, 23:02:38 UTC

[China only sounds more like a woman and Romano is seriously doubting that his sex again.]

What's gone? Damn it, at least say what it is before you go on speaking in some other language!

[China shows himself in the gear, revealing his new look.]

My Trapinch bit off my ponytail while I was unconcsious, aru!

[Action] piccolo_tomate July 5 2011, 03:42:16 UTC

[He doesn't bother holding back a laugh once he sees China.]

Now you look more like a man! A balding man! [BALD BALD BALD] Dummy, you were screaming as if something worse had happened!

[Action] gochuugoku July 5 2011, 04:14:13 UTC

[China frowns.] I most certainly do not look bald, aru! There is still plenty of hair on this head.

It is a bad thing, aru! My Trapinch had the nerve to do it while I was soulless and besides, I liked my hair long.

[Action] piccolo_tomate July 5 2011, 04:20:20 UTC

You will be if you lose any more hair, bastard.

And it's not a bad thing! So what, you don't have as much hair as before. It looked girly when it was long. [LOL]

[Action] gochuugoku July 5 2011, 04:23:45 UTC

Well, I won't be losing more hair, aru. I'll make sure of that. [He glares off camera at his Trapinch Cao Cao.]

[China opens his mouth to object--well, okay. He has been mistaken for a girl before. Some people couldn't even tell if he was a man or a woman.]

It's an old tradition in my country for the men to grow their hair long, aru. Besides, it suits me better in my opinion.

[Action] piccolo_tomate July 5 2011, 04:42:10 UTC

Go ahead and look like a woman, then. [Romano can't understand but since it's an old tradition, he'll keep to himself on this case.]

Is it tradition for women to cut their hair short?

[Action] gochuugoku July 5 2011, 04:53:01 UTC

No, women usually grow their hair long too, aru. Many of them keep it in a bun, or a braid, or a ponytail.

Although, sometimes they'll cut it if they're in the army, aru.

[Action] piccolo_tomate July 5 2011, 05:30:51 UTC

[Before Romano has a chance to reply, Virgilio reminds him of just how hungry he is. Nuvole and all the other gather around him as well, determined to find out who was keeping their tiny trainer. He looks off camera for a moment and tries to multitask between giving them their food and insulting talking to China.]

Your women are as weird as your men. They join the army, cut their hair, act like men... why don't they act like women?

[Action] gochuugoku July 5 2011, 20:27:09 UTC

They do act like women, aru. At least in Asian standards they do. I'm aware that things are different in the Western world, aru.

Still, they are beautiful, they have nice clothing, and sometimes they fight too. They can wield a sword just as good as a man, aru.

[Action] piccolo_tomate July 5 2011, 20:30:42 UTC

[He thinks over China's words as he hands otu the snacks to his team. Once that's done, he settles down and gives China back his attention.]

But why do you let them fight, dumb ass? That doesn't make any sense.

[Action] gochuugoku July 5 2011, 20:43:59 UTC

Why not let them fight?

The images of exotic concubines and painted women in China so... what's that word... cliche. Though women like that did exist, my country has also brought in several female fighters as well, aru.

In the past, the husbands loved their wives not only for their beauty, but for their wisdom too, and respected them as equals. There's even a historical record on a woman during the Taiping Rebellion that had command of 2000 female soldiers.

[Action] piccolo_tomate July 5 2011, 21:01:21 UTC

[For most of China's explanation, Romano's found himself a large snack and has started munching away.]

I didn't ask for a whole history lesson. Whatever. You're done crying about your precious hair, at least.

[Action] gochuugoku July 5 2011, 21:22:32 UTC

Well, we've had this talk before, Romano. Yet you keep asking me why we let women fight in my country and I keep giving you a similar answer, aru.

Basically, the East is different from the West.
