[click! the phone receiver picks up to part of whoever is using it mumbling to himself]

-don't even have a cell phone here! This thing is so old, you have to spin it to get the numbers and everything

[noneed_2worry]

Sealand? Is that you?

[micronational]

Ha, even the operator knows about me! Yeah, yeah, it's me! So don't worry about them not letting you put the call through.

[noneed_2worry]

Um... I'm not the telephone operator.

[micronational]

Huh? But I dialed information...

[wybrows]

[ Pause pause pause. ]

No one wants ya.

[micronational]

[you can hear the frown over the phone I SWEAR YOU CAN]

Wy, I'm trying to negotiate a hostage retaliation here. You're not the UN, hang up.

[wybrows]

Like I said, no one wants ya. And the UN wouldn't do anythin' for ya either. Go back to not being recognised.

[micronational]

Just because I'm a completely self-sufficient country and the UN hasn't finished processing my application yet doesn't mean my rights aren't protected under international law. They definitely have to address this act of aggression.

[bawlingforsoup]

S-Sealand, c-calm down--! [Wait. Wait just one beet-picking minute. Don't mind him while his 1940s memory digs through his Mayfield archives to pull up his little internal Sealand file.]

...Sealand, i-is that r-really you? A-Are you really back?

[micronational]

Latvia too? Heeey, it really is me! But I've never been here before.

[bawlingforsoup]

Y-You don't remember B-But you were here...

[micronational]

Are you sure? I think I'd remember a place that had such backwards technology.

[thatsnotaknife]

Oh, you're Princess' little mate, right? G'day, kiddo.

[micronational]

Huh? [he doesn't want to be known just as Wy's friend!] Yeah, I'm Sealand. Is everyone here?

[thatsnotaknife]

Just about.

[micronational]

Ew. [because that means his luck isn't good enough to have that just about exclude England] What're you all doing here?

[scentofbauhinia]

[oh god] ...Sealand?

[micronational]

[you're all just making his day with all this recognition] Yeah, it's me!

[scentofbauhinia]

[he considers you even less of a nation than him bro, of course he recognises you!]

You're being loud.

And you can't contact the UN here.

[micronational]

[it is that attitude that keeps you out of the clubhouse meetings, HK] Why not? Australia said everybody was here, there's gotta be an international peacekeeping body at work.
