Yearning to Breathe Free, part 8

Haha okay so yesterday I got the Sims 3, so...that's why this is so late. 8D 8D 8D So far, Vlad is romancing Zensu. Which is just weird.

Anyways, last real chapter here! Next will be a (hopefully) miniscule epilogue.

Warnings for violence and sensitive political themes.

I only got into the Hetalia fandom around noon yesterday (spent hours watching the anime and looking up scanlations before work, lol), but I've fallen quite insanely hard. So obviously I've only read a handful of Hetalia fanfiction in this short amount of time, but I felt like I should let you know that this is the best I've read in the fandom yet, and one of the best in any fandom I've read previously.

Excellent character development, amazing dialogue and prose in general, and so many neat little details that I just ate up (Alfred's back hurting during the earthquake <333). And I LOVED all the historic and cultural references! I'm a sucker for well-researched stories, I'll admit it, and the footnotes were the icing on the cake. Wonderful fic AND the opportunity to learn? Heaven.

(and the fangirl in me wants you to know that every inisight into Ivan's character or description of him and such made me squeeee <333)

Umm. So I'm rambling. And should stop.
But I couldn't resist the urge to stop by and let you know how very much I enjoyed reading this. You're an excellent writer, and it's going to hurt me in a good sort of way to read the epilogue because I don't want this to end.

8D!!! Thank you so much! I appreciate the comment. I'm really enjoying writing this, and I definitely won't stop after this fic is over--there's all of history to write about, after all. :D

Welcome to the fandom, by the way--I think you'll enjoy it! <3
