Oh man, this is fantastic. I really love the dynamic between the two of them... and your characterization is, as always, absolutely lovely. I wish I could give you something more constructive than just continual praise, but I just can't help but like everything I've read of yours so far. xD

I don't think anyone could reasonably object to continual praise. ♥ I'm really glad you liked it. =D

I know nothing about this, and everything that you generally do awesomely you did awesomely again.
I can think of nothing vaguely constructive to say. Przepraszam.

Oh, man, fic frommy favorite fanfic author-best thing ever on a Saturday morning to wake up to :3

That imagery in the begining, gaaahhh! I loved all of it of course, but that was one of my favorite things.And the end-the end punched me in the gut. Like, this fic totally sums up why Poland is pretty much the strongest badass motherfucker in Hetalia to me! I aspire to write even 1/10th as well as you one day.

I'd quote my favorite bits at you, because Poland is so fucking quotable, but, yknow, I'd have to give you every single thing Poland said then and...yeah. *pointsat above fic* All of that!

Desire to learn Polish, in addition to the Russian and French I aspire to, just increased about 500%. And I need a Poland icon. Yeah.

A-ahh... *hides under desk* Please don't say things like that! They are just words, I write them down, you can do it too. D=

And I need a Poland icon.

Everybody does! I'm shopping for a third one. XD

I can't think of anything constructive to say other than I absolutely love your writing style. And oh god it is so lovely for someone to know Poland's history. It's not well-taught in other countries and this always makes me sad so I am happy when someone knows it, and even happier when they use it to create something so wonderful

[pyrrhiccomedy]

Thank you so much! I really admire Polish history, I'm so glad you think I did it justice. =D

Why did it just now hit me that I need a France icon? Oh, right, it's because you write the best France on the block. For serious, he's so decadent, reading him is such a treat. AND ALSO POLAND, YES! Another character that you write wonderfully. And I like that he's so angry here. Not only at his situation, but also at France, and understandably so, and all of his bitchiness was justified and eeee~

And on top of all the great characterization there is, this is also historical. You never fail to impress.

He touched everything as he went: tables, chair backs, the covers of books.
I haven't the faintest idea why, but I am absolutely in love with this line. It's just so France. Gives me shivers.

For serious, he's so decadent, reading him is such a treat.

Dude, just writing France feels like letting a piece of really rich chocolate dissolve on my tongue, or something. He just kind of is decadent. And thoughtful and callous and vaguely exploitive, but self-aware enough that it all comes off light and airy and you can't hold it against him. I have so much fun with him.

And yes, you need a France icon. Everybody needs a France icon.
