[Canada gets off the train and frowns down at the pocketwatch. He picks up Kumajiro, who is trotting at his ankles, not wanting him to get lost in this strange place.]

I don't know what's going on, Kumari, but I really don't think I like it. This place is completely deserted...

[You may have gotten him out of his room once, Ruby City, but he's not keen to let it happen again soon. Once again, he's a bit holed up. The watch seems to turn itself on from where it rests, not too far, settled on a desk that allows a good view of England... who seems to be staring a bit into blank space. No... make that the mirror.

Unable to sleep, Canada's been occupying the kitchen since before sun-up, a perpetually gloomy expression on his face when he's sure no one's watching, polite smiles whenever anyone shows up. His bear is sitting under the table and waiting ( Read more... )

So me and Hungary talked and we decided that now that there are this many of us here, we need a meeting, ta get things in order and make things work out here.

Where do ye think would be a good place and time? And I think bosses and boysfriends and girlfriends and such should be introduced at it, too, we can have an extra hour ( Read more... )
