We can still request right? (lol is stupid) USA/JAPAN (or Japan/US I don’t care) America stressing over all the things that are happening to him and Japan comes in and comforts him in his own special way (interpret that how you will writer!anon)

He enters the living room and sits on the carpet, smiling and reaching out to take something in his hands - another gift, one that he’s touched and honored that America kept.
He hopes he can put it to good use.
He looks up as America walks into the living room. America’s eyes look much brighter now, bright enough to match the dark blue-gray of his yukata. Japan watches how they take in the light as America stops and blinks down at the samisen in Japan’s hands.
“I - where did you -”
“Would you like to join me for tea, America-san?” he asks, patting the pillow at his side.
How can America say no?
Japan’s serene smile widens as America bends his knees underneath him, straightens his back, and puts his hands on his thighs. “Seiza,” Japan murmurs

This is just lovely. I like that America is a bit of a pack rat (though I'm amazed that he knows how to wear a yukata!), and I love the flickers of intimacy that show between them but don't disrupt the impression that they're not just lovers, they're friends as well.
Also, I love Japan's sympathy for America's workaholic self - not that Japan doesn't know how to be a workaholic, too!

Oh, this is awesome, writer!anon. I like how you write their affection to each other without being overbearing. Please continue to write this, there isn't enough fanfics for these two.

This fic is beautiful. I love the way you write this oft neglected relationship. You make it so clear that they truly care for each other and that America is trying so hard even if he doesn't always succeed. I can't wait to see more!

It’s been a long time since he’s played, and as he plucks out a few notes, he’s afraid that he’s lost it, even as old as he is. For a moment, he’s afraid his skill will fail him just when he needs it

“No. You know better now.”
“Awww.”
“Don’t whine.” Japan finally finishes untangling America’s yukata, spreading his hands over warm skin as he parts the folds. “There we go. That’s much - ahAmerica’s hands dart underneath his own robes to cup and stroke him; Japan sighs and shuts his eyes as the initial surprise fades and warm pleasure takes its place. “So that’s…what you meant,” he breathes with a laugh, shaking fingers going to the ties of his own yukata

“…Tomorrow.”
America blinks. “Japan?”
“I have a few days here.” Japan brushes his fingertips along America’s lips. “We can take our time finding those papers. And I can show you how to meditate properly.” His mouth perks into a smile. “You can regain your strength, America.”
America pulls him close, tucks Japan’s face into his neck so that his nose rests just beneath America’s Adam’s apple. He smiles into Japan’s hair, and the kiss sends warmth rippling through him. “Keep things simple, huh? I like the sound of that.” ___
Hope you enjoyed this, OP, and thank you to all the anons who were kind enough to comment. Something very simple, and a concept I haven’t experimented with before. I hope you all enjoyed.

OP here~ Thank you so much for filling this! I was afraid it wasn’t a popular enough pairing to have someone willing to fill it! It was such a sweet story, and very hot. Exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you Writer!anon

I love you so much for this. This pairing does not get the love it deserves but you showed the best parts of their relationship. I loved the beginning middle and especially end. Japan was sweet without being mushy and America was determined without being "too" mature for him. Amazing fill!
It's so perfect, writer!anon! Like someone else mentioned, they're friends as well as lovers, and it shows so much in all the little movements. And I love things like Japan smiling to himself in anticipation and biting back a scolding to America. He's adorable in his subtle way.
I did enjoy it, can you tell? Thank you so much for writing my favorite pair.
