I've been thinking... it's a lovely day to offer to bake something, isn't it? If anyone would like something, be it cake, brownies, cookies, anything, let me know and I'll see what I can do to make it for you.

[In the background, the sound of running water could be heard as he was sitting near the Whimsical Waterfall Fountain in the

[starstripedhero]

[ America totally got this message and totally didn't reply. He's just going to be super awesome and cool and fly to the waterfall where he lands a bit rough and nearly falls flat on his face, but manages to keep his balance. ]

Aaaah--hah! Take that! I'm getting pretty fuckin' boss at this flying stuff!

[ And then, he turns to the side to see Canada. He jogs in the general direction of his brother before patting him harshly on the back. ]

Sup, bro! Partaking in the festivities a little bit early, huh? Hahaha! My birthday isn't for a few more days, you know that! [ though today feels significant somehow.. 8|a ]

[vimyridge]

[The look of surprise on his face is either from amazement that America can fly or just surprise at the fact that America didn't crash into anything while flying. That harsh pat on the back didn't help either, as it only made him whine just slightly. A little gentler would be nice.] When did you learn to-

...sorry. When did you wish for the ability to fly? [Knowing his luck, he was just unobservant and didn't pay much attention to America being able to do so for a while or something.]

It's not for your birthday, America. Though if you'd like for me to make something specific, all you have to do is ask.

At what cost?

[ though the mention of cake. . . . ]

voice;

[vimyridge]

No cost at all. Today's my birthday, and instead of asking for gifts I thought I'd give them.

voice;

[homuhomuchan]

I. . .see.

a pause. birthdays? it's been so long since she's thought about them. . . . ]

Happy birthday. I. . . .

[ hesitantly. ]

I wouldn't mind a cake.

voice;

[vimyridge]

Thank you. [His smile still remained the whole time.] I'd be more than happy to make one for you. Do you have a specific kind you'd like?

voice; late sob

[likesyourtshirt]

( Pinged by 'bake something'. )

I do not think I have tried baking brownies yet...

voice; that's okay ♥

[vimyridge]

Brownies are relatively easy to make, though sometimes it depends upon the type one is trying to make.

voice; ♥

[likesyourtshirt]

What types would be your favorite?

voice; ♥♥

[vimyridge]

I tend to like anything involving maple, but I have a bias towards that. Aside from that, I also like white chocolate blondies or caramel brownies.

[ACTION] Assume this is...after the events of their "opera date" ;)

[conquiste]

[His smile is so impossibly bright and he rushes over to the smaller nation, arms thrown wide. He'd much rather have this little bundle of sweet sunshine than any baked goods right now but hey, one thing at a time, right?]

Maaaaaaaaathew~! My sweet! Aren't you looking particularly cute today?

[Gentle pinch on the cheeks, completely playful...perhaps even a little teasing]

[ooc: omg I will totally tag back in our log I'm so sorry rl is kicking my butt <3]

action; assuming away~~

[vimyridge]

[Laughing softly, he crinkled his nose a bit at the pinch then playfully swatted at his hand. At the same time, he took those open arms as an invitation to slide right on in and hug him.] You know just when to show up, don't you, Antonio? [Since, actually, he had been planning on going to find him.] Remember that sewing project I had taken on? I've finally finished.

Since I'm offering no-strings-attached baked goods today, is there also anything you'd like for me to bake for you?

[ooc: no worries at all. ♥. take all the time you need. i'll tag back forever, anyway.]

[conquiste]

A good Boss has to have good timing after all. For...ah...dramatic effect, you know. [A wink. His hold turns tighter for just the briefest of moments and he laughs, bright and bell-like. He presses a gentle kiss to Canada's forehead, then his cheek, then the corner of his lips. Spain is a man who has no qualms, after all, about displaying - no, showing off, even - his affections in public.]

You know there's almost nothing I won't eat if you make it for me, querido. Perhaps something with your country's famous maple? I adore that flavor. [A little mischievous smile at that comment.]

Are you free this weekend? [Arms slide down, loose and easy around Canada's trim waist, keeping him close]

action;

[vimyridge]

[Blushing lightly he gently bumped noses with Spain before shyly placing a quick, light kiss to the corner of his lips. Public displays of affection were not something he was quite used to, but he wsn't going to turn him away.] I'd say you have the dramatic effect down quite well. [Spain has had plenty of time to practice and perfect it, after all. Sometimes he was even sure that the older nation created new ways to be dramatic, just to keep everyone on their toes.]

For you? I'd be more than happy to. [As he spoke, his cheeks tinged a slightly darker shade of red for a moment or two before fading.] There's plenty of ways I can incorporate it into many recipes. [Cookies, cakes, frostings, pies, etc. The list really pretty much endless.]

[Moving just a bit closer, he lightly brought up a hand to rest on Spain's shoulder.] This weekend? Well... [Frowning softly for a moment, he tapped a finger against his lips before flashing a brief, mischevious smile.] Of course I am.

[Action] - Hi, who's late, not me~

[mei_blossom]

[Just going to have Taiwan run into Canada by the fountain randomly] Hello, Matthew!

action; what does 'late' mean~?

[vimyridge]

[That works well enough for him. Anyway, he's offering a happy smile and wave.]

How have you been?

[Action] I'll forget it if you do!

[mei_blossom]

[I think she has something for you anyway] I've been doing all right. I hope things have been going well for you too?

action; consider it done ♥~

[vimyridge]

[Is it something good?] That's wonderful to hear.

Well enough, yes. I've been meeting all sorts of interesting people. [Though he still hasn't been wishing much. There's just not much he can think of usually and just wishing for the sake of wishing because he can just seems so... well, like taking the easy way out because he's more than capable of going to the kitchen and getting a sandwich or something.]

Oh! I have two new kittens, too, so they've been keeping me busy.
