[Background] hetalia | Canada | October Crisis
[Personality] Canada is everything opposite of his brother, America. He’s quiet and reserved, and often forgotten about. Rarely do the others even remember who he is. On top of that, to add insult to injury, he’s often mistaken for his loud, boisterous brother and because of this, is blamed for many of the things Alfred has done. Sometimes it even goes as far as to others punching Matthew, mistaking him for Alfred. He takes everything in stride, however, and continues to try and clue them in on their mistake. Most of the time the young man is calm and soft-spoken, rarely raising his voice and yelling, unless otherwise provoked. Half the time he’s used as a chair by Russia as the running joke is that he’s virtually invisible to the others. It seems that France is one of the very few who actually knows who he is and remembers him.
Aside from being shy and reserved, he can also be very passive-aggressive when pushed. This is best evidenced when he got into an argument with Alfred and Matthew made the other cry while spending a good three hours pointing out all of his flaws. Drawing further on this side of him, Matthew has a bit of a temper and this temper of his shows when he’s at his breaking point (as evidenced with his yelling at Alfred). He also doesn’t do well under pressure and, sometimes, has been known to lose to his calm and explode (again, as mentioned previously). In conjunction with being overlooked, he isn’t one who speaks up very much at all which causes him not to be heard when discussing important topics.
As well as his passive-aggressiveness, he also tends to be a bit cynical and sarcastic. Most of the time this is reserved for Alfred, but it anyone who gets on his nerves is offered the very same treatment. Matthew is also not one who enjoys violence, either. If possible, he always tries to find non-violent, diplomatic, solutions for conflicts if at all possible. However if one must fight, then he will, with reservations. Overall he’s a good person who tries to do what’s best. Despite this, his lack of confidence is something that tends to hold him back a bit as he doesn’t apply himself as much as he could.
[Specialties/Abilities] He's a country?
[Affection] Any and all types of affection are allowed. Just be warned he's a bit awkward and such. If he likes you enough/you're close, he'll offer affection back.
[Fighting] While he'd rather give peace a chance, he can fight when needed. Needless to say, he's a peaceful person and would rather not fight at all. But go ahead if needed. He won't quite run away.
[Other Permissions] Just... contact me about this, please.
[Other Facts] Canada has a pet named Kumajirou. He’s a little white polar bear that keeps Canada company. Unfortunately, Canada sometimes forgets Kumajirou’s exact name and Kumajirou forgets who his master is. Mostly, Kumajirou would be played as, well, a pet - something for Canada to interact with and talk to when others aren’t around. As well, Kumajirou would be sort of a comfort for him to have around, seeing that he would be in a strange place and all.
