This is what you meant on the friending meme, yes? XD

It's awesome! I think you did great in translating Prussia into being a woman as much as Prussia can be. 'Men in women's bodies' for real. fem!Prussia is rare and I think for good reason like this, most fem!Prussia I've read wasn't done well at all.

The banter was excellent, the way it bandied back and forth between comraderie to almost hostility and back. I love the way that France always manages to invade everything England does in some way or another, haha XD

My favourite part has to be the end though, with the gloves and the puppy. Pure win ♥

Yup! ^^; On that note... I wish I could find more England/Prussia stuff.

Oh god, yes. The funny thing is, I'm toying with a plot bunny involving Prussia's (changed) relationship with Frederick the Great if Prussia had been female to begin with. I'd have to look more into Prussian history for that, though, including the early life of Frederich the Great.

I intended the hostility to be a little less... hostile, but my inner Prussia kept butting in. This is after the Napoleon Wars, he/she is pissed and resentful as hell about everything. XD That was the entire point! France is so permeated into England's being.

XD It was a throwaway scene, to be honest. Thanks~

Re: OP here

^_^ Ah, I'm glad you liked it!

I was frankly worried about the characterization of both of them, because fem!England interacts with females much differently than she interacts with males (seems obvious but given my view of her...), as well as their dialogue and a number of other things.

Good to hear that it was to your satisfaction!

Wow. Wow.

why is your fic so hot I don't even-

Ahem. Yes. Well. I thought the genderbending was done brilliantly, and honestly I think Prussia came off as a real live woman rather than just 'a man in a woman's body'. For me, anyway. And the uniforms and France and- asflghj yes. And gambling and just everything and I wish I could give you more coherent feedback but um. I liked it very much.

[whitesin]

I try...? ^^;

Really? It was the only way I could reconcile Prussia + female gender. The more I thought about it, I thought that should Prussia be so cursed to be physically female, she would likely be a transgender.

Thank you!

Oh, don't sell this fic short, not when it's so enjoyable!

Your England and Prussia translated perfectly into women, and I especially loved how they half-teased each other about actually being more feminine, more ladylike, while knowing it didn't fit either of them. Also, your descriptions of their taste and scent really seems to bring their identity as Nations forward. The little-sort-of-epilogue cracked me up to no end. It's just so them.

And of course the sex was very, very hot. But that's already obvious.

Wonderful job all around :D

[whitesin]

^^; Well, it included a lot of things that make writers a little apprehensive: clever banter, plausible characterization, hot sex.

Mm... it doesn't suit them now, but England is going to find herself changing her mind about that (My head canon states that she became rigidly feminine with the coming of Victoria, as if to make up for her rowdy past, including growing out her hair to her knees, until WWI comes around).

Heh. England and Prussia are hooligans together. They bicker and bitch and wrestle and play crude (and sometimes cruel) pranks on each other, but they have a healthier relationship than England/France because they're so honest with each other.

Thanks!

Guh, I love me some genderbend Prussia/England. This is gorgeous, bb. I adore the way you write your fem!England in general, but this... this is wonderful. ♥ I think you successfully translated Prussia into a woman without destroying the characterization and I hope you continue to do other work with fem!Prussia. I'd love to see fem!Prussia's interactions with France and Spain, especially.

(God, I'm already requesting you to write stuff. Baw, me.) Anyway, this is all kinds of wonderful. <3

[whitesin]

Call me the Genderbending author? And RPer. -cough-

Geh. Fem!Prussia is a nightmare to work with, even more than ordinary Prussia. She's just got so much damn more to prove than Prussia (and Prussia has a lot to prove).

I'll see what I can do. As for now, I'm too exhausted by these two. -kicks at both fem!England and fem!Prussia- They have a brawl in my head and leave a royal mess in there. Bitches.

Thanks!
