he should definitely do so. They're beautiful animals.

who the hell this is, but he has a polar bear. "Um, hello Mr. Polar Bear," says, smiling cheerfully, not knowing what to do with this odd_

situation he has been forced into...

hugs his polar bear closer. He can't remember it's name at the moment. "He's really friendly and I'm Canada...."

looks down at the bear with wide, innocent amethyst eyes. "May I pet him?"

nods and holds the bear out to him.

pets him. He's surprisingly soft. "Do you think he'll be my friend?"

smiles with that. "I'm sure he would be, though he tends to forget who people are." The bear looked from him to Russia at that.

bends down so he's at the bear's level. "Hey, Mr. Polar Bear~ Will you be my friend~?"

watches him before laughing and setting the bear down on the ground. "I don't think he'll answer you Russia."

seems to be upset by this, but squats down so he can be closer to the little bear, petting him again.

hangs back and watches as the bear looks at Russia before motioning to him. "Who?"

blinks in surprise. "I'm Russia~" he chirps, as if talking polar bears are normal.

((and they are to him, because being constantly does some crazy shit to you mind 8D ))

blinks, suddenly glad he's not the only one the bear doesn't recognize. "I think that's all he ever says."

((Haha, yeah apparently it's normal for Mattie as well))

laughs delightedly, like a small child. "How cute~"

shocked as he watches the man. How could people fear him? There really wasn't much to fear. The bear cuddles up close to Ivan.

makes a happy noise and picks up the little white bear, pulling him into his lap and cuddling him.

starts to wonder if he's going to be getting his bear back.

smiles up at him, still petting the bear.

watches. "Eh, I think he likes you."

looks delighted. "Eeeh? Really? That's so happy! I did it! I made friends with a polar bear!" huggles the bear.

nods and smiles back at him. His bear looks a little less than pleased at the hug but doesn't seem to mind otherwise.

lets the bear go, sitting on the ground cross legged and smiling contendedly.

kneels and scoops the bear back up into his arms. Kissing it between the ears.

he had a bear to love like that.

tilts his head to the side and looks up at him. Russia had so many friends, Mattie had always wished he'd had more than a bear.

doesn't have anybody who loves him unconditionally like that... except maybe Belarus... But even she can be kinda scary sometimes. D:

to disagree, the bear even forgets who he is. Though Belarus can be a little more than scary.

knows the bear still loves him, whoever he is.

shrugs. At least people know who Russia is. He likes Russia though.

like he's made another new friend. Even if he can't remember this person's name...

sighs and holds out his hand. "I'm Matthew, Alfred's brother."

try his best to remember this. "Nice to meet you, Matthew. I am Ivan." ^__^

smiles and pets his bear. "Nice meeting you Ivan. My bear's name is um... uh... Kum-Kumajiro?"

pats the bear's head. "Nice to meet you too, Kumajirou."

glances at his watch and finally notices the time. "I'm sorry I wasted so much of your time!"

shakes his head. "No big deal~ Making new friends was my job for the day, so you haven't wasted my time at all!" ^__^

smiles and nods. "I'm glad then! Maybe we can talk again sometime. I'll bring Kumario..."

smiles back. "Sure! Friends keep in touch, after all." ^__^
