Any time during this thing!

[boomerangbend]

Sokka can be found roaming the halls of this place in this yukata, trying to figure out what the catch is or just hanging around their room. This event looks kinda low key to him, but he still has his suspicions. There has to be more to this event than running around in new clothing!

...The narration would like to point out that it's just his thing to run into trouble eventually. It's a comedic relief character's job after all.

This is one of those events where he's pondered the possibility of just sleeping through it, but, hey, everything happens when he's asleep. He'll take it for now, but when that catch comes up, he's gonna be ready. Nope, there's no way he's gonna be mentally scarred after this event!

Zuko is wearing a red yukata of course, with dragons patterned on it. He doesn't really mind the new clothes. This event is much better than, yaknow, dying or buttscooting across the floor in a cardboard box. However, he has yet to understand what's going on, and will not understand that anything is wrong until the event is over.

He runs into Sokka while roaming the halls. Zuko is compelled to talk to him, but he does so in a much more awkward way than usual. He even talks with his hands, gesturing like a stupid idiot under the influence of the event.

"Uh..hey."

nothing much, just gonna awkwardly flirt with you

[boomerangbend]

Yeah. He's gotta hand it to the mansion. This is way better than being turned six or gaining thirteen million sheep. ...Where is Sheepie even at during this thing, anyway? ...Oh well.

Hey, is Zuko being even more awkward than usual? Because, due to the magic of this event, Sokka doesn't even notice. All he knows is, hey, they should talk. About what? Activities? ...No, the event hasn't hit him that hard yet. Try again.

"Uh. Hey. How're you doing?"

LOL

[exiled_torch]

He feels weird, but Zuko doesn't even realize it's part of the event. He's as blissfully unaware as he was when he was buttscooting. All he thinks about is the bizarre flip-flopping of his stomach. It feels like there's a whole swarm of hawk-butterflies in there.

"..Fine."

He pauses awkwardly.

"You..?"

GENIUS!

POLAND - Anytime during the event

[reckless_eagle]

Of course Poland's mun has art of him in a pink yutaka. Why wouldn't she? The internet is a beautiful place.

Moving on from the meta-commentary: For a minute, when he recognizes the clothes he's in, Poland thinks that this must be Japan's event, before he remembers that Japan is gone. So, one of his citizens', he guesses?

Whatever, really. This place seems pretty relaxing, with the sort of weird food and the warm springs to bathe in and the cute clothes and all. Not that that means it won't suck later, but you know, Poland's going to enjoy it while it's enjoyable. Life's too short for wangst, right? Even when it's basically forever.

Hot springs......

[cautious_knight]

Lithuania is just relaxing in the same hot spring as Poland.

And watching Poland.

he tries to not make it too obvious, but... Did Poland always look as hot as he does now? Sure, the nation himself would have said that, but... It was never this hard to keep his hands to himself for Lithuania. Or stop looking.

[reckless_eagle]

As shy as he can be about sex, Poland's never been particularly bashful about his body, at least as far as things like bathing go. Sometimes, it's really relaxing to just strip down with your totally-platonic bros and hang out, right?

So he's pretty at ease with the whole hot spring situation, sprawled out comfortably with just his shoulders above the steaming water's surface.

"Okay, so like, you really shouldn't get used to events being like this," he sighed, a warm little smile on his lips, "but I think this one might be pretty cool..."

He was like a kitten, sometimes. Feed him and put him somewhere warm, and he was happy.

[cautious_knight]

"It really is nice," the brunet agreed. But at the same time, why was there so much of a distance between them? "I just wished we were alone in that room. I don't really know the others, but..." Aside from wanting to be alone with Poland, he also worried a bit. He did not know them, and having strangers that he could not judge because he knew nothing about them this close by when he was asleep - when both of them were asleep - worried him a bit.

Lithuania

[cautious_knight]

Lithuania is sitting on his futon and tugging at his yukata, trying to figure out how to keep it from accidentally opening up - seriously, why are there no slings or buttons or pins or ANYTHING this is awkward. He cannot go out without anything to wear, this is clearly sleepwear at most!

Anytime during the event~

[urnewkingbitch]

Dave is just chilling in his yukata, which he has a sneaking suspicion is actually for a girl, but who cares. It's ironic, the fabric is comfortable, and therefore he is content with himself.

Well. Not quite. There's one thing missing from his normal look. It takes him a moment to realize that the goddamn mansion just took away his shades. He'll have to see about whether he can get another pair somehow later.

For now, he just hopes nobody notices his red eyes.

[reckless_eagle]

It's not like Poland's going to criticize Dave's clothes. For one thing, he can't really tell. For another, he's totally worse off, and for another, Dave is amazing.

Like, just... whoa. Totally awesome, you know? He gets a little fluttery inside just looking at him, and he just... can't stay away!

"Um, are you like, having a good time here?"

[urnewkingbitch]

Oh, good, someone he recognizes is rooming with him. Dave relaxes a tad, and he shrugs.

"Yeah, it's not bad. Kinda nice to have some hot springs around. I should probably go visit before it's time for the switch. How about you?"

[reckless_eagle]

"Oh, those are like, pretty cool! There's like, nothing like them at all at my place..." Which is because he has no volcanoes, so that's probably cool, because he hears those totally wreck your complexion anyway, but yeah.

"I could come with, if you want!" Please say yes, please say yes, please say yes--it's not even like a crush, not exactly, he just wants so desperately to be hanging out with Dave...

[exiled_torch]

Zuko is exceptionally broody and distracted right now. He'll be off, in his lovely red outfit, in some secluded part of the inn to try and clear his head. Of course, clearing his head isn't working. He just sits on a couch and broods.

[reckless_eagle]

Oh, that's one of his roommates over there skulking, isn't it? Poland wonders...

"Hey, have you like, seen Dave lately?" Yeah, he's seen him a couple of times today, but he just... what if there's something he could be doing for Dave and he isn't? That would be totally unforgivable! And being away from him is just so hard, he can't help asking after him every now and then!

[exiled_torch]

"No."

That's all Poland is gonna get, a single, trite word that just leaks how much he's sulking right now. Zuko leans on his palm. Poland is okay. Zuko doesn't mind him, but he can't help but sound miserable at recent events.

[reckless_eagle]

"Oh..."

Why, what's that, Zuko? You don't want to talk about Dave? That's fine, let's just--uh, talk about Dave! Poland is on a bit of a kick right now, all right?

"That's lame," he sighs, flopping down in a cozy chair nearby, then pausing to rearrange his pink, flowery yukata more decently. "I've totally been looking everywhere for him! I'm like, thinking of making him my king. Since I don't have one here and stuff! He'd make a totally awesome one, right?"
