[asideglance]

[opening the door]

...ah?

[rules_the_north]

[Standing there.

After a moment:] Good aft'rnoon.

[asideglance]

You are... back? [...there's a pause and then he remembers manners and steps back]

Ah, please feel free to come in.

[rules_the_north]

[Nods and follows the invitation. He is a bit out of the loop when it comes to ... a lot of things, but international and interhuman/personal relationships, and standing out ther eon display might not be the best idea.]

Th' original age, t'.

[Action] I'd say Marco or any of their roomies can jump this too

[dontcallmegol]

{Ace answers the door, looking a little surprised to see him.} Ber?

{He smiles warmly, happy to see the nation, and steps aside to let him in.} C'mon in man. Everythin' alright? I heard you went missing?

[Action] sounds good~

[rules_the_north]

...'m back.

[There is not much to say about it. Not much that he wants to say. Not about the actual vanishing, and not about the whole being a child, either.]

...How 're y'?

[Action]

[dontcallmegol]

{He LOOKED okay, but he didn't really answer his question. But Ace wasn't about to pry just yet.}

Finally been getting some decent sleep so I can't complain.

Glad to see you're back to normal. {Or so it seemed.} You want something to drink?

[Action]

[rules_the_north]

[He nods. A drink would really not be a bad idea right now]

're y' alone? [He know there should be a couple of others living here with Ace, so...]

[piccolo_rico]

[She was expecting her visitor to be an Auditore, or maybe Eald, but seeing the nation on the other side when she opened the door was momentarily surprising. Then her face broke into a smile and she gave him the biggest hug she'd ever given anybody.]

Sweden! We were worried...

[rules_the_north]

[That really surprised him. He ...to be honest, he hadn't known what to expect, but it certainly wasn't this.

After a moment, though, he hugs her back, strong arms embracing the girl who, while she could not really be his daughter in a human context, is slowly growing into someone he would consider family. Having been something like a big sister for a few days certainly helped that.]

...

W'?

[piccolo_rico]

[What else was she going to do? Sweden was her friend and he'd probably been through a lot, so what better way to show him she cared than with a hug. She nods, happy to have her embrace returned.]

Me, Miss Max, and um, Mister Denmark. In his own, strange way.

[rules_the_north]

[Japan mentioned that... he wonders what he is supposed to make of that. What it is supposed to mean to him.]

'll talk t' them.

[fail_assassin]

[The door to room 211 creaks open.]

Yes?

[The Fallen Angel looks up at Sweden with a cheerful smile. (Nevermind the battle axe.)] Oh! Good evening, Mr. Sweden!

[rules_the_north]

[For a moment here I thought she was holding one. Which... takes "crazy axemurder loli" to a new level of scary.]

Good 'vening. ... Are y' all right?

[fail_assassin]

Yes. I am well, thank you.

I'm very relieved to see that you are all right.

[Considering that the last time she saw him in person like this, he was quite literally a different person. Or at least shorter.]

[rules_the_north]

[A lot shorter. And cried more.]

'm wanted t' say thank y' [And that icon is no accident.]

[twinned_clone]

[Robin is currently running all around the city, frantically looking for someone!

At some point during this, he'll bump into Sweden and nearly topple over.]

[rules_the_north]

[Sways a bit too, but grabs Robin's arm so the boy won't fall. Holding it for a moment longer so the boy can steady himself.]

Wh't? [As in, what happened?]

[twinned_clone]

[The boy backs up a step and lifts his notebook automatically to write an apology, then he gets a good look at Sweden.

... His eyes go wide. Sweden looks...back to normal. That has to be a good thing, he hopes.

But then worry comes back into his expression, and he does write.]

Sweden! The person I live with is missing. I can't find her, and she won't answer when I try to call her.

[Though he hasn't checked her frequency...]

[rules_the_north]

[Wait-

Robin. Yes. He knows this boy. ...So that is why he never talks? Not that Sweden minds at all, he likes the text feature and especially right now he really prefers it to talk.]

Who? [This is getting a far too frequent situation.]
