Hetalia Headcanon -- FIRE!!
So, my pally sakuratsukikage posted about hetalia sex headcanon today, and I wrote so much that I figured I should just write out my head canon, for my own benefit. YOU CAN TOTALLY IGNORE THIS IF YOU WANT, IT'S JUST MY OPINION. Although, my opinions are very impressionable and subject to others, so they may be your opinions too XDD

I am so proud to be at least partly responsible for this.
I HOPE THIS TREND CONTINUES.
Firstly, America is a lot more mellow and thoughtful than people think. For a long time, in his youth, Europe didn't really acknowledge him, and treated him as though his government would fail at any moment and he would cease to be. Even today, he is a bit of a laughing stock, and is made fun of for his weight problem and his hatred of universal healthcare, etc. He feels its necessary to be loud and obnoxious with them, and constantly call himself "awesome," just so there's no room for argument and they'll take him seriously. It often has the opposite effect, but it reassuring to him that at least they see him as a major power and acknowledge his strength. Around certain people though, like Japan, and Lithuania, he is more modest and genuine.I'm not sure how conscious all this is, but I definitely think it's a part of it. As much as I see America as really quite genuinely the gigantic over-the-top somewhat jerkass-tastic MASSIVE DORK in ( ... )

I'm not sure how conscious all this is, but I definitely think it's a part of it. As much as I see America as really quite genuinely the gigantic over-the-top somewhat jerkass-tastic MASSIVE DORK in all caps who just doesn't know quite how to tone it down, I really do think that there's a lot of this inside him. I think he's also not very self-aware and a very immediate type, so I'm not all sure how much of it is conscious, or the greater relaxation and sincerity around Japan and Lithuania. America has always been quick to overreact and do it in an ALL CAPS fashion, so that's exactly what his acting out because of insecurities ends up as. And I think that America tells himself who he wants to be, kind of, with all of it. If that makes any sense.I think most of it is subconscious. He really is just a very ALL CAPS sort of person, and sometimes (most of the time) he acts without really thinking about what he's doing. He has an idea of himself ( ... )

*nods* America definitely is an out there sort of person, and I definitely agree that a lot of the time he acts without thinking about what he's doing. I agree with this:
He has an idea of himself that he wants to live up to, but he doesn't always have that image in mind when he knee-jerk reacts to things.
And this:
He feels like Japan and Liet see him as he would like to be seen to them, so he doesn't feel the need to be quite as obnoxious around them. (I'm just thinking about the Storage Cleaning scenes with Liet in the anime... he's alot more collected and modest with Liet, but that's probably cause Liet doesn't call him a kid or talk down to him.)
so much. He really is quieter and softer and seems more relaxed with them.
(I love that Jefferson quote--it definitely says alot about what America felt at the time. DORKDORKDORK) Alfred really wanted freedom, but like you said, what it boiled down to was that he wanted Arthur ( ... )
