Still, there are days When there's no way Not even a chance That he’ll dare for even a Second glance At the reflection of his body in the mirror and I know why
England was a jerk, but he had his reasons.
Peter Kirkland, who would definitely absolutely one day be recognized around the world as the great nation of Sealand, knew some of those reasons, even if he pretended not to. He knew if England knew he knew, something bad would happen.
Wales and Scotland and Ireland didn't have the last name Kirkland. Neither did America. Or Canada, or Hong Kong, or India, or anyone else who'd been England's colony. Only little Sealand had the name Kirkland. The reason for that was that England was perfectly right when he said Sealand wasn't his brother.
Peter Kirkland was Arthur Kirkland's son.
It had been late at night, probably almost midnight, and Peter had sneaked into England's house to wake the jerk up and make England acknowledge him at last, but England foiled his plan by already being awake. He almost busted in anyway, except

Peter knew what rape was. He knew how to read, he was smart, he'd heard about it on the news and everything. He'd just never known guys could be raped. Or that they could have kids. But now he knew they could on both counts, because England had been raped and then given birth to him
( ... )
To be honest, this is really the only kind of story I write. I am good at crack and fluff fills, and mindless PWP smut, but I don't get nearly as into them as I do dark things like this. I love to explore characters, see what makes them tick, by putting them in situations where they have to act and react as honestly as possible because only instinct can control them.
I've just never written it from the point of view of an 'outsider' before- always either the victim or abuser. Seeing things unfold from Sealand's POV will be a new writing experience for me, and I hope I manage it as well as I've started out.
I'm going to do my best to update every Monday, at about the same time I did today, so look forward to it. Thanks for reading and leaving a comment behind. ^^

Wow, that was powerful and eerie and horrific. Poor kid. And poor poor England. I think the fact that England is talking on the phone with the misterious nation, probably lots of years before it happened, intrigues me. I've often wondered how nations go by, accept and forgive the things other nations have done them in the past, some of them pretty awful.
I'm dreading who the father will be. England's been around long enough for anyone to be possible, really. But my heart clenches every time I remember Peter looks exactly like England's and America's lovechild, with the first's eyebrows (and temper) but America's hair colour and the exact same eyes. *whimper*
I'm glad I managed to establish the mood I wanted, though it is pretty creepy. >.>
*pets anon* It'll all turn out okay somehow. I like dark stories, but not dark endings. Just keep in mind that no matter what happens, I reward characters in my stories for the hardships I put them through.
The father's identity will be kept secret for a while, since Sealand's sincere and determined, but not exactly subtle or very perceptive sometimes. All I can say is, someone's gonna wind up killing me over it.

Oh poor Sealand, England. This did fit with my headcanon in that I'd always seen Sealand as England's son, not brother, but I hadn't really made the connection to rape baby. And yet, it makes so much sense. I'm looking forward to your update, anon.
As I told the anon above, I'm aiming for updates once a week- every Monday (night for me, East Coast, USA). I hope I can keep from disappointing anyone.

Author!anon is a full-time nanny of two kids and two cats, and part-time nanny of two other kids, plus author of five in-progress fills here on the kink meme. Hope that makes the waiting a bit more bearable?

Lol, it's okay Author-anon(?)!
Yess, if you're THAT busy then the wait is bearable. Especially when it feels like one kid equals 20 in total. But 4? What a drat! Can't wait for Monday. =3

This is going to be so painful, in a heart wrenching, can't turn away from it kind of way. I already feel sorry for both of them.
Well done anon, well done and I can't wait to see where this is headed next.

Oh Sealand ;A; Oh England ;A; They're both in so much pain.
I can envision Sealand peering at all the nations next time he invades a world meeting and wondering who he looks most like besides England.
