being sullen and throwing snowballs at a rock. Man, she's pissed.
((Is it okay to reply with eesti? ))
peers over the rock, almost getting hit. He was coming to check on Greenland... he hadn't killed her online lately :|
jumps, a little surprised. She quickly drops the next snowball "E-Eduard? What are you doing here?"
steps out from behind the rock. He pushes up his glasses, 'I was making sure you weren't dead... I haven't seen you online recently.'
shrugs. "I had an accident so I'm not allowed to play games for a little while. Why would you think I'm dead?"
... isn't sure actually. 'Well...you might as well be to some people online? Especially if that's the only way they keep tabs on you.''
guesses he's right. "I still checked pms, you could have messaged me. I'm really surprised you came in person, I was sure you were avoiding
flushes, having been caught out in a rather childish practice. 'Maybe I should have pm'd you...'
knows from his face she was right. "No it's fine, you were probably really busy. It's no big deal."
shakes his head, combing a hand through his hair. ... 'I can still be quite childish,' he states
smiles a little. "It's okay, everyone can be. Want to come in for a bit? You're still never dressed for the weather."
he's alright... he brought gloves this time. The temptation of a warm room though has him nodding, 'Yes please...' He still feels rather_
starts walking towards the house. "I was wondering what I did to make you avoid me, I'm still not very good at having friends yet."
shakes his head, 'It was me!' He protests, 'I know it's stupid... but I was avoiding you because I thought I'd upset you.' He stops infront_
of her, nose and cheeks red from the snow. 'I'm sorry. I'm the one that isn't a good... good friend.'
a bit surprised, she thought it was her fault. "Why did you think that? Did I seem upset?"
nods, 'A little... maybe just disappointed?'
frowns. "I was disappointed? About what?" She tries thinking back to them but she doesn't remember well.
shakes his head, 'I wasn't sure what was wrong with you. I could just tell you were acting odd.' >~<
shrugs. "I don't remember, but come on, your nose is going to freeze off. I'll make you hot chocolate!"
smiles brightly, 'Okay.' He's happy they've cleared it up, although he's chastising himself for being so idiotic. He starts in the direction
of her house again... 'I brought marshmallows just incase.'
grins. "Good, I just ran out. I had a contest by myself to see how many marshmallows could fit in my mouth." She opens the door and tosses
her wet mitts and hat on the radiator. "The dogs are in the barn so you don't have to worry."
pulls them out of the bag on his back when they're inside, holding out the box. 'Then feel free to keep them.' He's glad about the dogs. >~<
takes them to the kitchen where she starts boiling water. "Feel free to make yourself at home, its a bit of a mess since I haven't been able
to use my hand for awhile, I did my best at keeping it clean."
... blinks. No reaction. Is she not a ghostbusters fan? He looks around, taking off his coat. 'Would you like a hand?'
didn't really notice, she's on pain meds right now. "Ahh no, you're my guest so I can't make you do that. Just relax instead."
frowns, taking the box from her. She looked a bit out of it? 'I'll do it so please take a seat? I promise I can make good hot chocolate.'
goes to refuse but she's not very coordinated right now, she'd probably drop it so she sits down. "The hot chocolate is on the top shelf."
reaches up to grab it before reading the back to see how it's made. Once he's done that he sets to work. 'How did you hurt your hand?'
laughs a little at the memory. "I was mad at you so I went to go work on a canoe someone order. My hands slipped and I cut my hand almost
right through to the other side. I was wearing my gloves either, I forgot."
... feels bad, he plops a couple of marshmallows in the cups, hands settling on the counter afterwards. 'I thought you weren't mad though?'
finding this whole ordeal confusing, 'But I'm sorry... I didn't mean to cause you to do that.'
careful to use her other hand. "I was mad at you at the time, not anymore. You didn't cause me to do that though, I lost my focus. I know
better. I didn't go in there hacking away, my hand just slipped, it was an accident."
blinks... sitting down. 'Why were you mad?' he asks, taking a sip of his hot chocolate.
takes a sip, trying to form the words in her head first. "I had a feeling that you were going to avoid me, so I was mad that you just didn't
explain what I did wrong. Although now you say it wasn't me but at the time I was really mad about it, I lost my first friend."
really guilty. He shifts in his seat. 'I'm sorry...'
shakes her head. "Don't be! Like I said, it's not your fault. It's just a big misunderstanding! Don't feel bad okay?"
nods, even though he will. He picks up his cup, taking a sip. 'Okay... but let me help a little to make up for being a bit of a fail?'
already gulping it down. "Mmmm I love marshmallows. What do you want to help with?"
looks around, 'Um... I could help clean?' He continues to sip at his, getting some melted marshmallow on his nose...
hums. "Definitely not, you're not my maid. And you have marshmallow on your nose.." She reaches over and wipes it off for him.
goes crosseyed before flushing, rubbing his nose. 'Thanks... and ... ummm, anything you want help with then?' He smiles, eager to help.
looks around. "Umm.. oh! Can you put the dishes in the sink into the cabinets? They're washed, I broke a bunch earlier. That's all."
nods,'Sure! I can do that.' He puts his cup down and does as requested, 'Anything else?' He picks up his cup, taking a gulp.
can't really think of me. "Actually I have a question, but its kind of a sensitive topic for you.."
((*anything not me wtf oh my god, I'm merging posts D: ))
a bit bad for asking him this. "What does Russia mean when he says he wants people to be one with him?"
((yea, I have to keep refreshing))
thankfully put the cup down by now. He pushes up his glasses so that the lenses catch the light well enough to hide his eyes. 'Well, you' he
pauses swallowing. 'It means he wants your land and in some cases you.'
makes a face. "Why would anyone want me. I'm sorry for asking you Eduard, but I didn't want to answer him without knowing what it meant."
shrugs, wanting to move away from the topic. 'Tell him no and get it over and done with.' Thankfully Russia isn't able to move as freely as_
he used to. The world has become safer in that respect.'
gets up and hugs him tightly from behind. "You know those dishes aren't going to get up there themselves."
blushes, starting to put them away. 'That's right.'>~<
lets go of him and starts eating marshmallows. "It's the stay puff guy! Where did you get this?"
pushes up his glasses, glad the peace offering had been noticed. 'On the internet,' he says, as he continues to put away the dishes.
eaten nearly half the box without noticing, spacing out on the lid. "The things you find on the internet.."
nods, 'It's a handy place.' He puts away the last plate, closing the cupboard. 'Anything else?'
snaps out of it. "Ahh no, that's too much already, I feel bad for making you do that for me."
, 'But I'm offering?' He smiles a bit, feeling his face cool.
shakes her head, blushing a little. "Just my laundry but I can't make you do that."
blushes... 'Well, I could perhaps do all the h-heavy lifting and let you sort it out?' He's scarlet, again.
it over. "O-Okay, you can bring it down from my room to the laundry room. Let me make sure uhh.. everything is hidden.."
runs upstairs to sort her laundry, how embarrassing .///.
nods, 'I'll wait here. Ta-take as much time as you need.' He'll clean their cups as he waits.
yells for him to come up once she's sure she's hid all her undergarments at the bottom. She tries to use that time to compose herself.
leaves the mugs to try, making his way up the stairs. He knocks on the door he presumes she's in, waiting for a confirmation to go in.
opens the door for him. "Don't worry, my room isn't super girlie." It has more game posters than cute things anyways.
looks around, nodding. It really wasn't... He picks up the basket, 'Where to now?'
leads the way. "Downstairs, the laundry room is across from the back door."
follows, watching her as she walks ahead. His eyes wander slowly south before he realises what he's doing and flushes, looking back up. '_
takes the stairs easy, in case he slips she can try to catch him. "Thanks a lot Eduard, this is absolutely the last thing."
smiles, 'It's fine. Happy to h-help!'
still feels like she's using him. "I'll make it up to you." She goes around the corner quickly to the laundry room to make sure nothing
embarrassing was hanging out to dry.
her a few moments, cottoning on to what she was doing before walking in. 'But this is me making up to you after being an idiot?'
hides a couple of things before opening the door wide enough for him to get in. "Yea, but you made me hot chocolate, that was good enough."
, 'You know, you could just draw this out and use my guilt to your full advantage instead? I wouldn't mind, and I offered to help!'
laughs. "But I'm not like that. Just put it on top of the washer machine. I'll do it later."
hums, 'Okay...' He puts the basket atop of the washing machine, being careful in the small space. 'What do I get as a reward then?'
shrugs. "I do know, what do you want? And none of my collector editions of anything."
nods. "I can do that! I'll just fire up the grill.. unless you want to go in town to eat?"
, 'Here's fine... but can you cook?'
wanders towards the kitchen. "A little bit, I'll make something simple then."
nods, 'Just watch your hand and ask for help if you need it.
starts pulling out things to cook with, totally ignoring his warning. "Are you allergic to shellfish?"
blinks, 'No?' Isn't that complicated though....
grabs a big a shrimp from the freezer and drops it in a pot of water on the stove. "I know what to make then, don't worry about a thing."
nods, 'Alright...?' He hopes she doesn't poison him >~<
actually making something a lot simpler than it looks. "You can't watch, its a secret dish! Go play video games."
's eyebrows raise before he nods. 'You know you sound like a mum, right?' He asks, as he leaves towards the livingroom.
glares t the doorway before returning back to cooking. She pulls the Mr. Noodles out once she's sure he's gone and starts cooking them. No_
one needed to know she wasn't a gourmet chef.
((Mr.Noodles? xD Are they like instant ones? ))
puts on a shoot'em game, entertaining himself rather successfully... as he pretends to some of hwer team mates that it's her playing >3>;;
((yea, they're big in North America and technically Greenland is in North America))
he's not too freaked by their flirting. She fries the noddles with the shrimp and some veggies once everything is cooked, adding sauce to it
flirts back rather shamelessly, getting a small kick out of it. He kills one of the flirts, 'by accident.'
puts it on plates and brings it out. "... Why are you on my account.. HEY WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?" She puts the food down and tries to grab the
controller from him. "I would never say that stuff to them!"
holds it up in the air, 'Really? You must be encouragig the flirting somehow!' He's mid-way through a message that's complimenting the size_
*admiring the size of the team mates *gear*. he hits send, 'They seem to be enjoying it.'
turns bright red. "I-I don't! Stop typing those things!!" She tries to push him down on the couch or off so she can grab it away.
falls onto the couch, rolling over so that he's on top of the control. 'You should be happy, I just helped to encourage them more.' He's_
laughing, gasping for breath. This is too good.
sits on top of him. "No its not! I already combat it enough without the encouragement! Give the controller to me!"
gasps. She's heavy ;n;. 'S-say please!' he insists, eyes drifting to the screen to see the reaction of her team mates...
tries to reach under him to get it. "Why should I? You should be begging for my forgiveness!!"
shakes his head, wiggling away from her wandering hands. 'You say this while feeling me up?'
turns even redder. "I-I'm not!! I'm only trying to.. why am I explaining myself, just give it back!"
wiggles until the control is freed from under him. 'There. Now care to let me breath?' ;n;
grabs it and starts writing a reply quickly. "No, and thanks, am I really that fat?"
stays where he is frowning. 'No? I'm just not used to people sitting on me.'
gets off him, hoping she did enough damage control. "Y-You.. now they're going to be twenty times worse than before!"
holds back a smile, badly. 'If you really didn't like it, you would have stopped it by now.'
sputters. "I've tried. They're not going to stop just cause I asked them to... you killed Sveinn, why did you kill Sveinn?"
... doesn't say. :| 'Then if you really didn't like it you would stop playing with them no? I think you like the attention.'
blushes. "I play with them since they invited me to the team years ago. I'm loyal to them, and they didn't I was a girl till last year."
hums, 'Then why are you blushing?'
turns red. "Fine, I look the attention a little bit. I am a girl after all. But now.. that's too much attention!"
knew it! 'It'll calm down...'
glares. "The size of his 'equipment'? You had to say that?"
flushes, 'It seemed funny at the time.' He points to the screen, 'And he's clearly overcompensating for something.' He gestures to the_
equipment, trying to justify his actions.
raises a brow. "Oh, your set is almost like his, minus a few things. So you're overcompensating too?"
splutters, 'My set is more compact!'
starts to smirk. "Oh really now?"
nods, 'Wait! You've seen my... You know how big I am!' He pouts, annoyed by this conversation.
turns bright red, she had forgotten about that.. "L-Lunch! We should eat lunch!" She grabs her plate and starts eating, scooting a bit away.
takes his plate, looking at the food suspiciously. 'So I'm not overcompensating for anything,' he murmurs, taking a bite. He had to get the_
chokes on her food when he says that, getting even redder.
keeps quiet after that, eating his food. He had a rather amusing, displeased face on. :|
finishes her food in silence, glancing at him from time to time. Jeez, he knew how to make things awkward for her.
finishes soon after her. 'That was good,' he admits, having cheered up a tad. 'Thanks...'
grins. "Secret recipe~" She grabs his plate. "Can I go to the kitchen without you writing dirty things to my teammates?"
hums, looking at the screen. 'For fear of you sitting on me again, I'd say it's a yes.'
frowns. "You make me sound huge.." She takes the plates to the kitchen and puts them in the sink. After a minute she pokes her stomach, was
she getting fat? She goes back to the living room, all cheery. "You didn't saying anything to them, right?"
shakes his head, he didn't even touch the control. 'No need to worry, your lover boys still think you're pure.'
pouts, blushing again. "They're not my lover boys. They don't really like me like that, they just do it to bug me and for fun."
raises an eyebrow, 'Guys pick on the girls they like./ I wouldn't be surprised if half of them were harbouring a crush for you.'
shrugs. "It wouldn't matter. I'm they're team member, we can't date each other."
sighs. 'Not cute,' he states, hiding a smile behind his hand.
pouts. "W-What did you say? I-I'm plenty cute.."
shakes his head, 'Nope. You don't act very cute, even if you look it.'
rolls her eyes. "And you're the master at it? Maybe I'm just a nice girl, I don't want to lead them on so I don't act cute to them."
makes a face, 'A guy shouldn't be cute...' He pauses at the leading on comment, 'but I suppose that's considerate of you... not leading_
smiles. "That shrimp in your lunch I got for free with my cuteness. There's a time and place for it."
dirty now. 'You didn't need to tell me that.' He pouts himself.
laughs. "It was because I failed at fishing, the guy next to me felt sorry for me. Ahh does that mean I'm more pitiable than cute?"
nods. 'Definitely,' he teases, sitting back on the couch.
frowns, sitting down as well. "I'm usually really good at it!!" She picks up the controller and winces, no wonder the doctor said no. "You
frowns upon the wince, 'You can fix them when your hand is better.'
hoping he wouldn't notice. "It doesn't hurt that bad, just a little tender.."
raises an eyebrow, 'How about we play a game that doesn't involve you touching a controller... just in case?'
nods, putting it down. "Sure, what did you have in mind."
, 'Do you have any board games?'
looks in her wall unit. "I have Risk, The Game of Life, Monopoly, Candyland, Scattegories and Scrabble.."
has never liked the sound of risk.' >~< 'How about Scrabble?'
hoping he's pick Candyland. "Okay!" She pulls the board out and starts setting everything up. "You go first."
puts down cat... he had an awful hand :|
puts down yacht using his a. "Yay I'm winning!"
adds an 'ing' to her yacht. 'are you know?'
frowns, she liked winning. She spells typed off her t. "Yes."
where she is getting all these Y's. He plays 'pluck' off of her p.
may or may not have cheated... she adds an ed of his word and spells like off his l.
adds a d to her like and spells cake using her k. 'How long until your hand is back to normal?'
shrugs. "Another few days the doctor said. It'll still be a bit tender but I'm supposed to start using it soon." Adds an s to cakes and
spells sew. "Then I'll be back on line."
makes 'wet' using her w. 'Good, I've missed killing you in game.'
laughs at that, adding an s to the original cat and spelling sound off it. "I think it's the other way around."
makes 'dog' out of her d, shaking his head. 'Nope, I think I got it right the first time.'
decided to start making up words and uses his g to spell gnuff. "Hmm maybe you should check your stats.."
adds an erfering to her gnuff, smiling. 'Just because I don't live on it.'
spells fispal off the f. "I do not! Next month is a big race so I've been training for that. I'll be gone for a few days. I could even die!"
hums, 'Is that just because your hands been sore and you haven't been able to play your games?' He makes 'loch' off of her L
shakes her head. "It's an annual race, I train for it every year. Even when I had the stitches in I was still going out, I ripped a few open
so that's why it's taking so long to heal." She spells ochre off his o.
frowns, 'You should look after yourself better.'
shrugs. "I've always been a bit reckless and impatient. Mostly because I have no one to keep me in check. It's just me here."
frowns at that, making 'hatred' out of her h. 'That's why you should look after yourself.'
spells dyvino off the d. "I look after myself the best I can. You have to be tough here."
, 'But not idiotic, I'm sure.' There is a pause.. 'Are you not enjoying this game? Do you want to play something else?'
looks down at the board. "Am I winning yet?"
, 'You've been making up words which are no points... so no.'
gasps. "Are you accusing me of cheating? Those are all real words!!"
shakes his head, 'They're really not... so yeah I am. But I expect it from you now so...'
huffs. "Those are all real words, I'm sorry your vocabulary isn't as big as mine.. wait, you expect it from me?!"
glares. "I am definitely not a cheater!"
raises an eyebrow, 'Find gnuff in a dictionary then?'
frowns, making things up on the spot. "It's a mountainous bird from Romania. Migratory too."
pulls out his phone to look this up. :T
tries to grab his phone. "Now you're cheating!"
, 'I'm checking you're not cheating!' He pouts, holding up his phone behind him.
keeps trying to grab it. "Using your phone is cheating so you're the cheater!"
frowns, turning off his phone. 'I don't have a dictionary... you're being a bit of bummer.'
stops, that didn't sound good. She starts putting the game away. "Sorry, what else do you want to play?"
blinks at the sudden change, 'Why don't you... pick?'
grabs a deck of cards. "We can build a castle?" That way they wouldn't have to compete with one another.
nods, 'Alright.' Perhaps they were both a tad too competitive. '... I'm sorry too.'
tilts her head. "How come?"
,'I should have just let you win.' That's what a gentleman would do.
smiles. "You should have but that would be insulting me. And I was cheating a little. Gnuff is a dragon in a Danish comic though."
smiles slightly, 'Then I guess it counts... but ochre?'
raises a brow. "Ochre's a colour. That one is real. It's an orangey colour."
wrinkles his nose, 'It's not a colour.'
frowns. "It is! It's also a type of pigment. Use your phone then!"
hmmms, 'Fine. But it's a colour like mauve is one.' :/
starts building the base. "The rest I made up, I'm sorry for lying and calling you dumb."
helps, working on the second layer. 'Let's just say we're both sorry...'
smiles. "I knew you were going to win, you're smarter than me."
flushes, 'No I'm not... you need an imagination for that game and I don't have one... you would have won.'
him a look. "Eduard, I'm fine admitting when people are smarter than me and you are. You're smarter than a lot of people."
pushes up his glasses, feeling awkward. 'I don't think so... but thank you, I suppose.'
starts reinforcing the base. "Don't sell yourself short Eduard."
isn't. >~< He continues making the second row, reinforcing as he goes while trying not to get in Greenland's way.
laughs, starting to build up. "Or are you not used to girls giving you compliments?"
that answer should be obvious. 'Girls don't really pay me much attention in that way. Most of them only talk to me nowadays if they want_
something fixed.' He sits there, wandering if he should perhaps start his own.
started building other parts of the castle. "Why's that?"
isn't sure, 'Your guess is as good as mine.'
peeks over at him. "Well it isn't because you're not good looking. Maybe its because you don't let girls win at scrabble."
scoffs, hiding his cheeks which are very red by now. 'I don't know.'
built her tower up to 4 rows. "I wonder how big we could make this.."
, 'It all depends on hoe many cards you have.' He works on his, trying to catch up.
keeps making it higher. "I bet mine is going to be way taller than yours. There's more cards in the wall unit."
shrugs, 'Probably.' He's letting her win. He gets up to fetch more cards, giving her a few packs upon returning.
doesn't understand why though.. "Keep building Eduard!"
building. He's on his fourth row now!
built a six row and stopped, scooting over to inspect his. "When yours gets a big as mine we'll try to topple them."
blinks.'But I thought you wanted to see how high you could go.' He starts on his fifth, a bit nervous about trying to topple them now.
shrugs. "It started to get wiggly on the six row. Maybe I'll try for two more, I don't want it to fall down."
nods, '.... well I'm almost done. We can try and topple them in a second?'
quickly adds another row to hers. "How should we knock them over? We should make a bet!"
brightens up at the prospect of a bet. 'What does the winner get?'
shrugs, how imgination not the greatest right now. "Anything they want!"
raises an eyebrow, 'Anything?'
nods, waving her hands. "Anything!"
hums, finishing his tower. 'Alright.' He smiles, hoping his tower doesn't fall now.
hums. "What should we do, try to blow them down, throw paper balls?"
looks at them... 'Throw a car or two at them?'
gasps. "Like ninja stars? Lets!"
nods, 'Yeah.' He grabs a few, holding them out for Mettalise. 'Ladies first.'
throws one at the bottom of his tower but it barely wobbles. "Damn it.."
throws his card at hers, gaining a small wobble at the top. Nothing drastic however, 'I can see what you mean... the sixth row is a bit_\
throws two cards this time, one missing completely and one knocking a card off his top layer. "Fall!!"
hits the middle of Greenland's tower, causing the majority of the top half to fall.'Yes!'
getting pretty excited about this competition, aiming at his bottom layer again and misses. "Wow, thanks card."
aims for the half of the top that didn't fall and skims the sides, causing a few to fall. 'Don't blame the innocent card.'
throws another one and knocks off two layers. "Yes!! And it is the card's fault, it should have went the way I wanted."
, 'A card is only as talented as the person who threw it.' He aims to hit the bottom of the tower, the hit doing little to knock it over.
pouts. "But I threw it where I wanted and it went where it wanted." She throws it at the bottom, barely making it wobble.
knocks the second layer off with his next card. 'Try and put more strength behind it.' He reaches over to take her wrist, putting it through
the flicking motions. 'Like you are trying to skim a pebble.'
failed at that too. But gives it a try and manages to knock off a few of his cards at the top. "It still does whatever it pleases."
watches her as she throws it, tempted to say she throws like a girl... but then, he's probably not much better. 'Try pointing the card into_
your stomach and then throwing?'
pokes her stomach with the card and throws it, watching the card fly right over his castle. "Denied.."
says, 'You didn't even try to aim in there!'
throws a bunch of cards at once and manages to knock down another top layer. "Yes! I'm catching up!"
starts throwing his own cards, hitting one card and wacthing the rest fall over in a domino effect. He's won, and tries to hold back his_
going to be a good sport and doesn't even kick his tower down. "Congrats, you beat me. Name your prize."
watches her out of the corner of his eye, pleasantly surprised. 'A date.'
blushes a little. "You're not referring to the fruit are you?"
pokes his tower down, trying to hide her burning face. "Okay, a date it is."
pushes up his glasses, very much clutching to his cool and clam persona at the moment. 'Great, I'll email you details.'
turns around once she's managed to will away most of the red from her cheeks. "I'll look forward to it."
smiles slightly, looking pleased with himself. 'Right, well I should probably let you get back to your flirting.'
pouts, blushing again. "I don't flirt with them! I'm going to tell them it was you!"
ahums. 'If you say so.' He moves into the hall, grabbing his excuse for a coat. 'Look after yourself Mettalise.'
follows him to the door. "I will, don't want anymore accidents before this date."
opens the door, considering her hand. '... Are you wanting to wait until you feel better?'
shakes her head. "As long as we don't go bowling I'll be fine. Thanks for being considerate though."
shakes his head. You're meant to be considerate in these situations, 'Bowlings definitely crossed off the list then... bye?' He waves,_
awkwardly, before hurridly turning and leaving. >~<
waves too. "Bye!" She shuts the door and runs back to her game. She needs advice from her team ;w;
