when ONE freeman shall stand! { voice }

[it starts off with some mumbling, clicking and experimental typing, he's humming "The Star-Spangled Banner" while he fiddles with the laptop, then he "ah ha!"s triumphantly]

Figured it out! Knew I could, ha ha ha!

[he clears his throat, pops his knuckles unnecessarily, and is probably leaning in much too close to the computer for the microphone

[Oh hey. It's the American version of Denmark!]

You mean the ones who relied on technology would have to start over, Den--America.

Voice~

[omnomfuckyeah]

No! I just got all this computer-stuff figured out back home! Microsoft and Apple just came out with new software, and I don't want to start over! And this laptop is so much cooler than the one IBM has! And--

...you're Norway, right?

[bornwithskison]

You never used to be so dependent on it before when you were little. I'd like to see what would happen if everything went back to the middle ages, personally.

Mm.

[omnomfuckyeah]

It would suck, that's what would happen! There wouldn't be internet or the world wide web!

[invisibly]

...

[Ow his ears. Still, it's a relief to see a familiar face, and Canada steels himself and--]

What are you on about, eh? Sense, Alfred- make it.

[omnomfuckyeah]

Huh? How do you know that name? Who are you? [dumb big brother is dumb]

[invisibly]

[Urge to rage, rising.]

It's Canada, Alfred. You know, Matthew? Your little brother?

[omnomfuckyeah]

...RIGHT. I knew that!

What're you doing here?

[victrixs]

You're a little late.

[omnomfuckyeah]

Late for the party? But I didn't know what time it started!

[yeah, he thinks you're talking about that New Year party he's trying to find]

[victrixs]

[ Oh, god, who is this patriot freak stuck in the past. :| ]

Nothing happened. Was it 1999 when you got here?

[omnomfuckyeah]

Yeah! Of course it is! It's 1999 everywhere!

...Wait. Nothing happened?!

[knightmeplz]

... Y2K?

[omnomfuckyeah]

YES, Y2K!

Since the year 2000 is coming up all the computers might not be capable of continuing to work due to their dates being set in 199x form, they're all going to stop working!!

[knightmeplz]

That's-! How is that possible?

[omnomfuckyeah]

I don't know! But everyone keeps saying that's it's gonna happen, and they can't be wrong, right? All my people were stocking up on supplies and getting in their basements before I left!

[alwaysfailingly]

....

[omnomfuckyeah]

It's true!!

[alwaysfailingly]

What the hell does any of that even mean?

[omnomfuckyeah]

It means what it means! The computers are gonna all shut down!
