It galled Lithuania to be later forced to ask Russia for the guest list, as if he wanted to be up all night folding envelopes and writing invitations; he was shamefaced when he had to face his brothers and explain to them the extra workload. Estonia merely looked at him disapprovingly, but Latvia protested loudly until Estonia jumped on him and covered his mouth.
(Prussia probably should have helped. But Prussia was locked in his room - again - to exactly no one's surprise.)
Ukraine, a sweet-natured nation, kindly offered to take part of the load herself (and being Russia's sister she could avoid serious reprimands for doing such things freely) and saw to the delivering of the invitations and getting the groceries. Despite the rations she came home with more than should have been allowed. Lithuania mused privately that she did have generous, ah, assets; if his own eyes weren't fixed so steadily (so suicidally) on Belarus, he probably would have been persuaded to any kind of mischief by Ukraine himself.
Nonetheless, with a guest list of fifty prominent Soviet Party members, a minimum of a week would normally be required to get everything ready; four days made it a nearly impossible task. Lithuania spent every moment cleaning, doing paperwork, cooking, and more.
And that was how Lithuania came to his basketball match after not sleeping for three days.

Wow, that's quite a compliment! Thanks so much for reading this first part. Trying to write Russia differently from the way I've seen him done before has been a fun adventure. (He's such a jerk. But a cheerful jerk!)
