I want to see something before 1809 (when Finland was taken from his hubby TT____TT) - maybe how they first met. Historical references = love. Interaction with other Nordic countries = bliss.
I hope this is correctly posted/matches the request...

I am so, so sorry if this is historically incorrect. My research didn't turn out that... well, resourceful as I'd hoped, which is to say I have nfi when firearms arrived in Sweden or Finland (speaking of guns, though, my History teacher would probably shoot me for not knowing this). Anyhow, this is meant to take place at their first meeting
( ... )
Finland scrambled to his feet and took off running into the forest. He could only hope that he was more agile than the bear, that he had wounded it deep enough to slow it down. Otherwise... He would rather not think about that.
Loud crashes and thumps followed close behind him, along with blood-chilling roars. He wished to blend in with the shadows and smells of the forest, but there was little hope of that now, now that he could feel the cold sweat of fear on his face. He muttered under his breath, apologised to the great bear for harming it, calling its name like a prayer, asking it to save his life this time.
He was shaken thoroughly to hear another roar, but much, much closer than he had assumed. The bear must have caught up with him. Finland changed direction and spared a glance over his shoulder, just the tiniest glance to see how close the beast was and he felt his feet sliding on their own accord, felt his step faltering and he fell

*slow anon is slow* Is this supposed to continue, or does it end there?
Not that it really matters because the fic is really nice. The flow, the pace and Finland. Because Finland is awesome. Haha. I like it very, very much.
I love how you included their actual languages, and kill me, but I have always thought that Suomi sounds way more prettier than Finland.

Hiya, and glad to hear you liked the fic. ^^ About continuation, well, I have thought about leaving it here, as it does work by itself, but if I have time I might slip in some late continuation fills.
Anon, that was amazing! I kind of had film going on in my head while reading this, felt so realistical. I loved it, keep up with awesome work, anon! >///

Previously commented Anon here, would the author of this fic mind if I wrote a second part to this, if I can come up with something? And would people like to read it?

I decided to continue previous author's usage of only Swedish and Finnish (and in this case, some Russian) language on dialogue. I've tried to keep it simple and explain a bit in previous or former sentence what the characters are saying, but in case you need translations, they can be found from the last part (damn, I'm supposed to know Swedish as I am a Finn but I needed translator most of the time and I'm afraid there are grammar mistakes so please forgive me!) I also gotta warn you, there's a lot of references to Christianity, I hope I don't insult anyone by how I wrote about it, that wasn't my intention

Weeks passed, Sweden staying constantly at Finland's house. Much had changed since his arrival, Finland noticed; he was now paying tax to Sweden's boss, and was able to sell his things, mainly lumber and tar, via Sweden's place. Somebody called England was very thankful of his timber, especially. Finland was happy to be of use to others. He was also learning Swedish so he could finally speak with his new companion, although Finland wondered why couldn't Sweden learn his language

Oh my goodness... Thank you so much for continuing this. *___* I loved how you included the languages, for the first time it didn't feel awkward including Finnish in the midst of English. And the mentions of the paganic traditions were just perfect. *swoons over you*

Thank you for the comment! I'm glad you liked it, hehe, I'm such a nerd for old religions like that so it was fun to write! But your fic was the original inspiration for this so it's all thanks to you, Author!Anon of the first fill :)
