decides to wear sandals instead of his white boots today.
Shaliza
thinks
that's a GREAT idea, and that sandals are wonderful.
liked his boots more.. But sandals are great for hot weather.
Shaliza
thinks
boots are to...constricting.
*too]
Would wear sandals more often if it wasn't so cold in his home.
Shaliza
thinks
he should visit his girlfriend more.... >>
stayed at her place while his brothers/parents were fighting. :\
Shaliza
thinks
they need to have a talk :/
Iceland
wonders
why? o_o
because they need to have a talk if he's going to continue dating her sister :/
doesn't get where this going.
"Icy, sit down hun..."
sits down. "Okay..?"
crosses her arms over her chest "What are your intentions with my sister?"
raises a brow. "Intentions? Haven't we talked about this before?" He swears he's heard this before...
pauses "I dunno. Sounds like something I'd do earlier than this...did we?"
hums in thought. "I'm not sure, but I think I've heard this conversation before.." He's definitely not trying to distract her.
Shaliza
is
easily distracted. "Really? You think Danny or something told you? Or Mum or Uncle Francis?"
shrugs. "I don't really remember. It was a long time ago.. But it definitely wasn't Francis."
grins at that "I hear Uncle Francis uses diagrams when giving the talk~"
frowns. "Diagrams? What kind of talk is that.."
rolls her eyes "Dude...'The Talk'.." Does the air quotes for emphasis, hoping he'll get it.
can't really believe it, but gives her a disgusted face. "W-why would he do that?"
laughs "Cause it's Uncle Francis! It's what he does. Possibly your future father-in-law, if you don't break Sey's heart. Which I can't _
guarantee your life if you do" Chirps happily.
Iceland
is
now officially afraid of her. "I would never break her heart! Intentionally at least.." He tries to assure her.
pats him "It's okay. Intentionally or not, a broken heart is a broken heart" which translates to the Nordic's death anyways.
never expected Trini to be this violent.. "Then that's a risk I will take."
Shaliza
is
only violent when it comes to family, because she loves her family ;~; "Good. That means you'll fight for her, si?"
nods. Of course he would. "Why? Is she in danger right now!?"
hums "No, I don't think so. Just making sure for future reference.."
lets out a sigh of relief. "But I would definitely fight for her!" He assures Trini.
nods "Good. So...what are you going to do for the Vikings vs Pirates battle if we ever get around to it?"
Iceland
has
forgotten about that. "Are we really going to have that in the first place?"
shrugs "Honestly? I'm thinking about just leaving it forgotten. Danny and Norge's fights have me worried sick..."
Iceland
thinks
that's a good idea. "Yeah, those two fight about almost everything.."
sighs "I don't know with those two. They're a good couple, but they amount that they argue..."
agrees. "They don't even think about how us kids feel about it.."
hugs him "Awee, Icy...I know, they're usually wrapped up in their own problems. But I figure they think you're old enough you know?"
Iceland
is
taken aback by the sudden hug. "Yeah.. B-but I was talking about Greeny. She's the youngest after all."
hums "She isn't all that young is she? If she's old enough to drink, I'd say she's old enough to handle, yea?"
shrugs. "She does act like a baby though.. So no one really knows her real age." He tells her, half serious.
hums "She's pretty damn tall though. Then again, Viking genes...I think Norge said something about her not having a proper family before?_
Maybe that's why she acts the way she does...not used to it.."
smiled a little. "None of us had 'proper' families.. But I think she has Den's genes. Not a surprise why she'd be so tall."
hums "Very true, I can't really think of a nation that has. Sealand would come the closest, yea?....But I think she's a Daddy's girl too"
nods, agreeing to her last statement. "Definitely. And it's because Sealand is still young.. So he's lucky."
nods "Hm, yea...alot of the younger nations seem to have an easy life, yea?"
agrees. "Sometimes I wish I was still like them. But then again, there are a lot of things they can't do.."
hums "Very true...I don't even remember being chibi, but can you imagine being a kid and no clue why you're sick while your land is..flooded
or, fires, or attacked or...something? How that would affect them..."
can imagine. His lands weren't very stable after all. "Don't forget volcanoes.. Ash clouds choking your air and.. I should stop." He could
_talk about it forever.
hugs him again "Sorry about that whole volcano thing. That must have been crappy for you"
smiles wearily. "It definitely was.. Especially with all the complaints."
frowns "That's dumb though. You can't control when a volcano erupts. It happens when it happens and you were effected enough without them_
having to stress you out too.."
laughs a little. "Thanks. I'm glad to see one more person who understands the situation. At least it's over for now." He smiles.
nods "Yea, for now...I'll ward off idiots the next time it does happen okay?"
Iceland
hopes
the next time wouldn't be soon. "Thanks!"
hums, looking at him thoughtfully "So, guess what I heard?"
tilts his head the the side. "What?"
pokes his cheek, unable to resist "Ma said he picked me up from here...with you. When I had amnesia///
*...]
pouts when his cheek was poked. "Oh yeah, you're better now right?" He asked, feeling a little guilty.
nods "Yup, found out Mum turned me into a kid which was...odd. What was I doing here?"
"We were talking and hanging out.." He doesn't clearly remember, but he knows he was the one who gave the girl amnesia.
hums "That sounds normal enough...what did I do? Fall?"
nods a little hesitantly. "Yeah.."
sighs "Everytime I fall, it's on my head. I swear..."
smiles a little. "Oh.. But don't worry about it."
grins and hugs him "Thanks for taking care of me back then. I was probably freaking out alot huh?"
laughs nervously. "No problem.. Den helped too."
hums "Really? He never mentioned anything to me about it..."
shrugs. "Maybe he forgot. He doesn't have a good memory after all."
pauses "Maybe, I guess he;s had other things on his mind" like the fires, and Norge, and Uncle Niko...
hums. "I guess there's that. But he's just naturally forgetful." That's what Den gets for being an ogre.
Shaliza
thinks
Icy is a bit harsh sometimes. "Yea...I've seen that" Like when he spazzed on her for getting him(?) a dress right after s/he asked for one_
_Oh femDen....
Iceland
is
never too harsh! "Too bad he's gone now.. There's no one to go boating with/(pick on)."
sighs "I think he could use the break. He needs to just...rest and stuff"
doesn't really agree, but nods anyways. "I think Den should trust Norge more though.. I'm sure Norge wouldn't abandon us." He gives her a
_serious look.
pauses "Well, I know Norge loves you guys..." thinks he's pretty attached to Uncle Niko though...
really hopes she's wrong about that. "Maybe they can still meet, but as friends.. Or something like that." Isn't too sure what to say.
"I don't think...Danny would like them to ever see each other again, let alone be friends. Though the idea is nice..."
sighs, wondering why his family is made of drama. "Well, I'm having a talk with Nederlands. Hopefully something will work out."
nods "Good. He looks scary but Uncle Niko is a sweetheart...just don't piss him off..."
nods, taking that into account. "So he's pretty much like Den.. I can kinda see why Norge fell for him." >>;
laughs nervously "Yea, they're alot alike...They'd be great friends if not for...circumstances..."
sighs again. "Well, maybe they're drunk, they can be friends..?" Or it can be worse..
...."I think we should wait until this whole thing blows over, and maybe when Uncle Niko finds someone. Then they can try to be...in the_
same room..."
Iceland
has
come to the conclusion Den and Ned are both idiots. "Anyways, how are you?" He asks, trying to change the subject.
groans softly, rubbing her head "Better than before. You can thank your brother...father...figure...person for that."
raises a brow. "What did he do? Was it the whole breakup thing? You can just leave the two alone and they'll get back together soon."
shakes her head "Sorry, that wasn't sarcasm. I was feeling like shit cause of some stuff back home and Danny helped me out..though that_
kinda caused one of the fights. I still have to apologize for that..."
"Oh.. Sorry. Well, you don't have to feel too bad about it. I'm sure he's forgotten all about it by now."
sighs "It was the first time Norge left his ring...he went off to Oslo with your sister or something I think..."
looks at her, a little shocked. "Well.. that is a first. But they did get back together! And Greeny never went with Norge.."
frowns "Huh...and I think Norge was excited about that..." sighs "I still feel guilty..."
"Don't think about it too much. If Den hasn't mentioned anything about it, then everything's fine."
nods "Yea, I guess you're right...Norge was being kinda crazy that day anyways..."
Iceland
thinks
Norge have those random crazy days sometimes. "Did you talk to Norge?"
nods "Afterwards yea. It was cause he saw me in bed with Den. He was sick, I was sick, the bed was there and I'll cuddle with anyone. The _
night right after I fell asleep with Norge when we were taking care of Danny's fever...I guess everything got cleared up.."
"That must have been awkward.." He couldn't really imagine it though. "Are you better now though?"
nods "Yea, I took a long-needed vacation too. My boss...well, not my boss but one of the higher-ups put out a few laws that'll help. m'okay"
smiles a little, "That's good to hear."
nods "Everything okay with you other then...this mess with Norge and Danny?"
"Yeah, I guess so. I found Sey wandering around Copenhagen alone at night.." :\
blinks at that "What was she doing there? I hope you picked her up..."
chuckles. "She said she was with India and got lost on the way home. I found and took her to Den's place."
sighs "Only Sey can go from India to Denmark by accident..."
grins. "Yeah. Have you talked to her lately?"
nods "Sleepover. Apparently I promised her when I was a kid? I dunno..."
smiles. "That's great. Maybe Greeny could join too." He suggests, not that he wants to get rid of his sister.. No..
tilts her head "Your sister? I don't think I've properly met her before...I'll make you a deal. She can crash our sister sleepover thing_
if she becomes our legit sister-in-law" Isn't hinting at marriage for him and Sey, oh no...
hums, thinking. "Sister-in-law..? W-WAIT..!" He blushes madly and just stares at her with shock written all over his face.
bites the inside of her cheek to hold back her laughter, instead tilting her head to the side "Que?"
looks at her confused, face still red. "H-huh?"
pokes his cheek "Que...uhm..what?"
looks away and pouts. "N-nothing.. Then it's a d-deal!" He promises all flustered.
grins at that. Hugging him tightly "Awweee, my brother-in-law~"
blushes more. "B-but I don't think we're ready to get m-married yet.."
waves her hand "S'fine. Take your time. As long as is happens...I call dibs on bridesmaid, if not maid of honour, just so you know" <3
laughs nervously. "O-okay. You should really tell her that though, not me.."
grins "What do you think that sleepover is for?"
stares at her, surprised at how devious she is. "So, this was all a part of your plan, huh?" He narrows his eyes at her.
shakes her head "Nah, things just fall into place. I actually want to spend some sister-sister time with Sey, But it's a good place to talk_
_about that too..."
sighs. "I-I see... Well, I should tell Greeny about that sleepover. I think she'll like it.."
hums "Give me and Sey a few more sister sleepovers first. Then we'll bring her along. Anyways, that wasn't part of the deal. Marriage_
first, then she tags along..remember?"
frowns. "Oh yeah.. Sorry, my brain just got fried with the sudden request." He says monotonously.
laughs "Do you not get along with her that much?"
looks away, "Sey? We get along really well, actually. But I don't think we've thought that far yet..."
shakes her head "I mean Greenie. I should hope you get along with Sey. But you talk like you're trying to get rid of your sister.."
smiles awkwardly. "Oh. Well, we have our fights, but she's okay. You know how siblings are like. They get on each other's nerves and stuff."
hums "I suppose. I guess its easier when you don't live with your siblings huh? I've only been upset with...Lovi? For being dumb sometimes._
But he's my favourite brother by far.."
hums. "Yeah.. We didn't this many fights when we lived apart. But then again, it gets lonely. Lovi's the bad-mouthed one right? "
laughs a little at that "Yea, he cusses...South Italy. My cute lil mafia-ridden fratello..."
"Ah, I see. So would he also be Sey's brother too then?"
shakes her head "Nah. Sey's my sister cause of Mum, Lovi cause of Papa. Mum and Papa kinda hate each other anyways. Bitter about that _
whole...armada thing. Touchy subject...so it's not like the were ever married, just passed along colonies when they got bored of us I guess"
really thinks their family ties are messed up. But whose isn't? "Oh.. I guess us in the north are more close together then. I've been with
_the same family ever since I could remember."
smiles at that "Yea, you Nordics are pretty tight knit huh? S'cute...I wish it could be like that sometimes...Lovi hates anything that has_
to do with Mum or that side of my family. Won't even talk about it...I used to be the same until I started considering Iggy my Mum, and _
found out how cool those siblings were.."
stares at her with surprise. "Your families that big? Do you have many gatherings?" Thinks it'd be fun to have a big family.
grins "My family's huge. S'what happens when you're a colony to nations that seem to want to take over half the world with other colonies. _
Cept, they don't get along that great or else it would be awesome...well Papa and Uncle Francis do. Mum doesn't really get along with alot_
of other people not in the family..."
isn't very fond of England either. "Probably because of his cooking.. But do you think I should get to know Francis better..?"
hums "If you plan on dating Sey for much longer, yea...Though Uncle Francis is kinda...crazy about her. In a protective way...so be wary"
Iceland
will
definitely keep that in mind.. "I'll go see him with Sey one day then." >>;
Shaliza
thinks
that is an amazing idea "Yea, bring Sey...she can keep him in line. If you go by yourself....just bring Sey, yea?"
nods. "Alright.. Are you close to Francis too? I haven't really talked to him before.. but he seemed okay."
hums "I was before...he raised me for quite awhile and I learned alot from him. I even speak French...not so much nowadays though."
stares at her surprised. "Really? Wow.. I didn't know that."
laughs a bit "Yea, nobody really does...alot of our legends and stuff are from him. We still mix french in with our everyday talk too.."
"Oh. That's cool. My legends came from Den and Norge, mainly.. What kind of legend do you have anyways?"
grins at that, and wiggles her fingers at him "Scary Jumbee and Soucouyant...among other things. But I'd say those two are most popular, _
cause they're real, not just legends" nods matter-of-factly
Iceland
has
never heard of either before. "What are they about? Are they scary..?" Not that he would get scared easily, but he just wants to know.
grins "Well, Jumbee isn't necessarily from Uncle Francis. It's kinda everyone you know? Even a little Dutch to it, but moreso Mum I think.._
_Pretty much, they're evil spirits and ghosts and stuff. That possess people and shapeshift. There's six kinds and they do all kinda stuff._
Like if you see a Moon-Gazer on the road, it'll suck out your brain through its palm and break your legs. But if you see a Bush Dai Dai_
then those usually appear in the form of this beautiful lady. It'll go into villages and sleep with all the men. Then it'll turn into an_
animal and eat 'em up." grins proudly.
stares at her, with nothing to say about that. "... I'll make sure to be extra careful when visiting you now...
laughs just visit me during the daytime and be wary of stray animals..and dark places. Did you wanna know what a Soucouyant is? Those are_
my favourites" >w<
[There should be a quotation mark there... >>;;]
isn't sure he wants to but why not? "Okay, what are they?"
grins happily, "So, it's kinda like our version of the vampire but better. By day they're like lil old ladies that live at the end of the _
villiage, and at night they peel off their wrinkled skin and stick it in a mortar. They take the shape of this fireball and fly through the_
night sky looking for a victim. They get get into houses through keyholes and cracks and stuff and suck out the blood of the people's soft _
parts while they sleep. Arms and legs and stuff, you know? If they suck out too much, the person will either die or become a soucouyant_
themselves, and the original soucouyant gets new skin to wear. They do voodoo and witchcraft and give their victim's blood to Bazil, which_
Shaliza
is
a demon in exchange for evil powers. Bazil lives in the silk cotton tree...but you can still come visit. I know how to keep them away" >w<
laughs nervously. He's not scared. Not at all. "... I-if you say so. Y-you know, I don't really believe in those kind of things, alright?"
looks at him curiously "But it's real. They had a jumbee dance just a few days ago and a few people got possessed..."
stares at her. "No way... I-I'm not going to believe it until I actually see it..."
grins at that "Sure, I'll bring you to a jumbee dance sometime. They just keep going and going til someone gets possessed anyway..."
can't really imagine a dance that can last forever. "... So would they fake possession just to stop the dancing?" Thinks that sounds very
_logical.
shakes her head "Nooo, someone actually gets possessed. It's like..voodoo stuff I guess...I wonder if I have my old spells somewhere.."
stares at her and starts to panic, "You're not planning to actually try it out, are you!?"
shrugs "I've been to them, participated in them but I mean...in general. I haven't practiced voodoo in awhile...kinda miss it.."
Iceland
is
kinda relieved. "So you're not going to try voodoo out now right..?"
shakes her head "Naaah, unless you wanted to see something?"
shrugs. "What kind of voodoo can you do, anyways?"
grins at that "Did you really wanna see something? Once spirits come out, they don't like to leave~"
hums. "I can try to get the trolls to scare them away.."
pauses "Hey, I wonder what jumbee-possessed trolls would be like..."
can't really imagine that. "Probably not that scary.. Since trolls are already scary to start with."
hums "True...I dunno what would happen.."
Iceland
thinks
they should try it out, one day. "You do know how to undo it though.. Right?"
nods "How to drive them out? Yea, they don't always go easily but I'm not a human. I have enough power to make 'em leave"
Iceland
is
thinking something up. "Hmmm.. Then maybe we can try to possess a troll with a Jumbee.. As long as we undo it after!"
laughs softly at that "Curious huh? Yea, I guess we can do that...we have to set a day though. So I can get all the stuff to drive them_
out after.."
hums. "How about tomorrow? I can try to borrow one of Norge's trolls. Hopefully, he'll let me.."
pauses "I don't think Norge would appreciate me getting one of his trolls possessed..."
frowns. "That's true.. What about Nisse then?"
pauses "Nisses...kinda...freak me out. Aren't they huge..god-like...thingies?"
raises a brow. "No.. Not god-like at all.. They look more like modern day garden gnomes."
tilts her head "Really? Cause...I dunno, I've heard all these horror stories about them so..."
looks up, thinking. "Really? Because Norge told me that they protect farmers and their fields.."
..."Oh..huh..." pauses in thought "Nisses is too pretty of a word, it sounds like they're fairies or something..."
agrees. "Norge's the one who named them.. Maybe he thought they were like fairies, since they protected his lands."
hums "Maaaybe. Do you have anything that...isn't Norge's that we can get possessed? I feel kinda bad..."
Iceland
will
never mention his puffins. "A kraken..?"
shudders at that "I don't ever want to see another kraken as long as I live...unless it's dead."
frowns. "We can possess Den.." >>
...............
wouldn't mind.. Really. :|
wouldn't have one of her closest friends possessed. Ever.
rolls his eyes. He was kidding.. Sorta. "What else could we possess then?"
shrugs "I dunno...small animals are easily possessed...that's why you aren't supposed to take in strays in my home"
frowns. "Oh. The poor animals.. Maybe we can possess a rat or something."
hums "I don't think we'd know the difference though...but we can try~"
picks up a rat running by. "Here.." :|
blinks at it and takes the rat "Right this second?"
watches the squirming animal. "If you can."
stares at the animal "I know how people are possessed, they do it with a jumbee dance usually..." A French one actually.. "I've never _
tried to deliberately possess an animal...I'd say we go back to my play though if you still want to."
shrugs. "Fine.. It's alright then."
*place]
glances up at him "Is that a fine let's go back to my place or a fine forget about it?"
"To both. I sorta want to see that dance you talked about earlier."
hums "Sure, you might have to stay the night though. They do those things at ridiculous hours and its not safe to go out that late"
tilts his head to the side. "Ridiculous hours? Why would they do that..?"
shrugs "Spirits come out at night, si? It's just...better."
guesses that's true. "But then the spirits at my place roams during the day too."
shrugs "Yea, they roam but do they behave themselves? Mine likes to act up at night even though they're always there..."
Iceland
thinks
they behave most of the time.. "I guess that's what most spirits do though."
shrugs "I guess...none of yours ever act up?"
looks up, trying to think of some. "Well there are the krakens and psyrens that act up.."
shudders at that "Krakens..."
still hasn't experience a real kraken attack yet. "I've heard from Norge that they attack 24-7"
cries in her soul at the reminder "Those aren't spirits, they've savage beasts that just won't die" T_T
doesn't know about that. "There's the possibility that they could be possessed creatures."
shakes her head "Krakens are pure heartless evil that have no sympathy for the beautiful ships they destroy" T_T
chuckles. "I guess so. Then what about psyrens?"
hums "I've never had a problem with them. I suppose cause I'm a girl too.."
"That's true.. I wonder what would happen if a psyren is possessed by a jumbee.."
hums in thought "I dunno...wanna try?"
nods, but think it over. "It'll be hard getting close to one though.. Since I'm not an expert on navigating boats.."
grins at that "Whereas I'm an expert and miss it like burning.."
"Then we should go sailing, find ourselves a psyren, possess it, take pictures or something, and come back."
hums "I don't think its that easy to just...possess something though"
frowns. "Really..? I've seen Norge do magic easily all the time though.."
glances at him "Norge's magic, and voodoo are completely different. He's got it easy for one...if I can remember half the things so chant_
then that'll be lucky..."
always thought they were the same-ish.. He pretty much clumped all 'magic' together. "Doesn't all magic have a chant?"
hums "Well..I guess there's a difference between chants and spells? I don't know all magic so I can't really say..."
places a hand on his chin. "Really.. Do you do any of England's magic too?"
scratches her head nervously "Well..I'm not supposed to know any of Mum's magic. But when you're a colony for so long, stuff carries over.."
Iceland
is
now curious to know what kind of magic England. "So do you know any cool spells from him?"
hums "It..depends what you call cool? Just don't let him know I picked anything up from him okay?" >>;;
shrugs. "Anything flashy I guess. I won't tell, I promise."
hums "Maybe...so you consider calling up spirits of the dead flashy at all?"
shrugs. "I guess so.. It also depends on which dead spirit. As long as they don't intend on taking over the world, it'll be fine."
pauses in thought "Nah, we're good..."
nods. "Show me then."
blinks at him "You want me to conjure the dead...right now?"
stares at her. "Why not..?"
shrugs "I dunno. I just havn't done it in awhile. It's not as lonely anymore so I don't need to summon spirits for a quick chat" Grins at _
him, wiggling her fingers.
raises a brow. "You summon spirits to chat with them? Well I guess they'd have cool stories of their lives.."
nods "Yea...that was back when I never set a foot off my island. People generally came to colonize or settle on me instead. Spirits are cool
_they have interesting perspective...and they like to cause trouble when possible..."
