Haha, you know, I was gazing at the full moon last night. :D The full moon, however, rises my blood pressure, so today I've been pretty miserable and tired, but then I've read this chapter and OH MY GOD WHY DOES IT MAKE ME SUDDENLY LOVE EVERYTHING? AM I HIGH?

the answer is:
AMERICA'S HAPPINESS IS INFECTIOUS. XD

The first bit was my favorite. OH THE FIRST BIT. It was... ohhh, you guys... *starts crying* it is such a beautiful MYSTERY OF BIRTH OF A NATION. Simple, yet so powerful. The greatest, greatest WONDER on this planet. I can feel an almost religious ecstasy over it.

THIS CHAPTER IS SO WONDERFUL. I JUST CAN'T. I CAN'T. AT ALL. ♥

Thank you for making my week! ...Actually, you know what? I'm gonna print bits of this chapter and stick them to various places in my apartment. This way, all my days will hopefully be filled with smiles.

AMERICA'S HAPPINESS IS THE BEST KIND OF CATCHING! =D

That's actually one of my favorite scenes of all of TCE, actually, even though it's only a few paragraphs long. It's just such a quiet, little moment; but it changes everything. ♥

It makes me wonder how other nations was born: France, England, Russia (I'm pretty sure he was born in winter)... Do they all just wake up somewhere in their land with realization that they are this land and people, or maybe some of them live for a while among people and then realize that they are Nations?

It's such an interesting topic! I wish writers of the fandom would play with it more often.

I personally imagine that most of them knew what they were straight off, but I'm sure there are exceptions!

I really like imagining where/how the nations were 'born,' actually. I've always imagined bittiest!Vanya stirring awake to a blanket being wrapped around his shoulders, under a light snowfall. And he knew that this was snow, and that the blanket meant that he was safe, and that this girl who was smiling at him and dusting the snowflakes off his hair was his older sister, and that he could trust her. And when he woke up a bit more, she said that people are coming in boats, Vanya. We have to get ready.

That is flat-out perfection.
