[IC] 002: Flat seeking (& embroidering on the side).

[misterunionjack]

[The Brit's sitting by one of the cafe's windows, snipping away at the local newspaper with a small pair of scissors. There's a pile of clippings placed dangerously close to his tea. At a safer distance away is an unfinished bit of embroidery (various flowers on a handkerchief, secured in a hoop). He utters,] All right... Decent enough. That one

[She had bought a something from the cafe and spotted the other nation. It was his embroidery that caught her attention]

How pretty...

[misterunionjack]

Hum? [He pauses and glances up at her.] Miss Zwingli; good day. Anything I could help you with?

[cuteblueribbon]

[Oops! She didn't mean to stare for so long]

Hello, Mr. England! I"m sorry!...It's just...Your embroidery is really pretty...

[misterunionjack]

[Such a soft voice.] ... It's fine, love. You ought to speak up a little more, as I can barely hear you. I didn't get your last bit. Could you repeat it?

[cuteblueribbon]

Um, your embroidering...It's really pretty...

[misterunionjack]

Why -- how kind of you to say so. I do it every so often. [He picks it up, fondly and gently brushing off some imaginary dust.] Not usually in public, but it seemed as good a time as any to pick up my needle again. [He holds it out to her, letting her have a closer look.] Brilliant, isn't it?
