YOU HAD ME BAWLING IN THE LAST PART.
gah i can't even type coherently right now. but i love it. i love all of it. all those little details you added in? the cheeseburger shaped night light? the glitter on the dream catcher? AMERICA WHY SO ADORABLE.
And you are amazing at writing australia, lmao i love your australia. he's like everything i thought of him in headcanon, made a hundred times more realistic and awesome.
THE ENDING HAD ME IN TEARS. IT'S TRUE AMERICA, PUNCH CANADA RIGHT IN THE FACE IF THAT EVER HAPPENS. we love our american bros. ;_;
AJSLFJDK AND YOUR CANADA VOICE IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. It's just... so Canada, I can't even begin to say.
Thanks for dedicating it to me. This is beautiful. Keep on writing bro. ♥

HUGS, BRO. Don't cry. I know you've been feeling a bit down lately, so I hope this cheered you up, even just a little bit.

America will never stop being adorable, man. ♥

Sneaking Australia in was made in the heat of the moment, hahaha. I just wanted to give him a bit of screentime. Also, I wanted to practice writing him, lmao. I'm glad you liked his character, ekjgrkejh.

IT'S TOUGH LOVE AT IT'S FINEST. They'll never stop being bromantic, those two. I WANT SOME MOAR CANON TIME FROM THEM.

That's a relief to hear. :'D It's my first time experimenting with a first-person voice and I've had my doubts, but I'm glad that you thought it turned out good! ♥

You're most welcome, bro! :D I'll do my best! Still have three more fics to write. ||OTL

HUGS FOREVER! Oh, don't worry about me, I was just being grumpy. xD I'm fine. And this story, it really really did cheer me up. Thank you so much. <3

NO NEVER. He'll always be that wonderful, lovable goof. ♥

Australia deserves some screen time, and who better than you to give it to him? I REALLY DO, HE'S HILARIOUS.

No, the bromance will never stop~ Ikr? Everything canon with America doesn't have a lot of Canada with it... ;^;

I think you did an awesome job! It's exactly how I imagine Canada's voice to be. It's sort of hard to describe, but you definitely nailed it!

/CLINGS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR FICS! I'M SURE THEY WILL AL BE WONDERFUL

I'll be taking your grumpiness away now, okay? :Db

America wouldn't be America without the goofiness, will he? C;

I'm still hoping some canon panel time for Australia sometime in the future. WHO KNOWS?

Well, they did have that nice baseball catching strip once. That's about as slice-of-lifeish as you can get, eh? We need more of those moments!

Thanks so much! /GLUGS ENERGY DRINKS

oh hi there, comment fail. my wild keyboard smash made me lose control. because that was just AMAZING. SERIOUSLY. sl;kdfjoawlj

i mean, DUDE. i just can't even express how amazing and BROFUL that was. canada, i think, is one of the few characters i actually like reading in first person form; he seems to be that type of person? idk. but you NAILED him. honestly you did. and and YOUR AUSTRALIA, JESUS CHRIST. pfffffffft. i would totally sleep with him i mean, what? his advice is awesome.

and ari's right, your writing is amazing, and the little details you included just made it that much better. like "the band-aid, hamburgers, airplanes". of course. HAMBURGERS XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

and i mean, i just can't describe how lovely this was. it really, really was beautiful. you captured the relationship between these two in a really touching, moving way.

and thank you so much for dedicating it to me O////O

It's okay. /pats. The good ol' keyboard smash should be canonized as a natural form of self-expression. ♥

I'm just relieved and flattered and grateful fffffffff - thanks for saying that! ♥ I never really tried first-person before so I was kinda wary, but it looks like it worked out for the most part. THANK YOUUU.

i would totally sleep with him

I get first dibs. :'D And I'd tap that all night long in more ways than one.

/blushes

Thanks for everything! Your comments totally pepper me up! ♥

You're welcome! C;

THIS.

This fic. It had me giggling and in tears and turned me into a spiffy pile of mush. C: Life needs some more good bro-fics.

I'm not normally one for first-person fics, but, gosh, the way you write Canada is wonderful. You've captured so many aspects of the character that I love.

And ROFL Australia. He's just too cool.

Thanks for reading and commenting! ♥ &hearts ;♥

Platonic relationships somehow always get buried by the romance fics, unfortunately. Not that I'm complaining, but it'd be refreshing to see more bromantic fics once in a while. ;P

I'm glad you think so! C: /blushes I initially meant this to be just around 2,000 words but the Canada muse in me just went on a roll. I don't even know where it came from, what. Even though I finished the fic way later than I intended to, I absolutely enjoyed writing it!

Thanks for the comment! ♥

One of the many reasons that Australia remains to be one of my favorites.

First person Canada? omg I think I'm in love ♥

This was just.. whoa. It went way beyond them just being brothers, or even twins, it was like... brother/twin/lover/bffl all wrapped up in this pretty little package. I love Canada's narrations and his reactions to everything America had to say, and even the timid ways that America expressed his emotions were just perfection. This is just so awesome~

He's such a hoot to write, that lovable guy. ♥

Their platonic relationship has so much potential room for exploration, indeed. Politics, real-life happenings, historical events, plain horsing around? They've got the whole spectrum covered. As far as siblings in Hetalia go, they actually have a pretty healthy relationship. There might be kinks here and there, but that's what makes the pairing lovable. ♥

Thanks for commenting! ( つ^∀^)つ

Can't blame you, though. They're like the Oceanian OTP or something to that extent. Maybe I'll give it a shot someday? After all these ficathons, perhaps. o7
