Day One

[diejoubu]

Day One The nations arrive on the nameless island by boat at mid-afternoon. They will be dropped off at a quiet dock and boat will leave shortly after. At the end of the dock, they will find some items that have been sent ahead for them by their bosses. Among these items are: - Four tents - Packs of bottled water and snacks - A fishing net and a pair of poles - Two pots and a pan - Four first aid kits - A limited supply of alcohol - An emergency radio - A limited supply matches/lighters - Two maps of the island The beach is nice; clean with white sand and a shady forest up the shore. Aside from the sounds of the waves, seagulls, and the wind blowing through the forest, the island is silent. The nations wanted to a deserted, tropical island getaway and this is certainly the right place for it. The Nations can begin to set up camp or try to explore the island. Due to the time they arrived on the island, they won't be able to get too far before night falls. Activity Weather: Sunny, clear, and warm with the occasional cool breeze. Electronics: Electronic items will work fine during the day without issue. If you're desperate to update your Tw*tter account, you might get lucky and find an area on the beach with a faint signal. It will take a few tries and some patience but you will be able to update your social network of choice or make a brief phone call before you lose connection. Magic: Magic will work normally on the island during the day. Animals: Any animal companions brought to the island by a nation will stay close to their companion. Otherwise, they will act normally. ???: No unusual activity. Day One | Night One Day 2 will go up on 4 June

[Netherlands, that is a bad, bad move. Yeah, you've fooled him into thinking you're asleep, but that just means one thing to Prussia.

Prank time!

Kesese-ing to himself, he sneaks off somewhere. You might wish to reconsider this before it's too late.]

[proud_and_prussian]

...hmph. I guess. I don't really like that guy's music.

[proud_and_prussian]

Come on West, you're on holiday! Stop working for once and enjoy yourself!!

Headcanon is goooood~

[proud_and_prussian]

Yeah, and you did a good job. He should learn some things from you.

[gezellig]

[He's still wary even after Prussia leaves, but that doesn't mean he's going to move. ]

[proud_and_prussian]

[Good call, because he's come back with a crayon he 'borrowed' from Liechtenstein. Might wanna stop him before he starts drawing something on your face, Netherlands. Whatever it is, you can bet it's not going to be very nice.]

[gezellig]

[He'll watch with some irritation as Prussia comes back and looks down at him. When the other raises that crayon though, Holland will reach out and grab his wrist, none too gently.]

Pruisen. Ga weg

[Go away.]

[sanskrit]

Our bosses have encouraged us to be friends, and I think the advice is very good. [smiling, laughing, yep.] He's just very eccentric and has different needs.

[proud_and_prussian]

-!?

Fuck! Netherbutt, let go, that fucking hurts!

[proud_and_prussian]

Look, you may not have lived under him but I have, and I tell ya he is completely messed up in the head. His idea of making friends is to fuck them up bad! Just ask Loser-ania!!

[sanskrit]

Loser...ania. [really trying to figure out who this is.] I don't think I know that nation.

No worries, Prussia, I have much experience with these things. I am not going to live in his house any time soon.

[gezellig]

[He does, sitting up a bit and eyeing Prussia over his shades.]

I mean it.

[proud_and_prussian]

[Just glaring back at you while he massages his wrist.]

Damn it, that hurt you asshole! What the hell was that for!?

[proud_and_prussian]

W-well, that's good. Not l-like I was worried or anything, because I don't worry about stupid things like that! Just, I won't get to enjoy your coconuts anymore if you live at that bastard's house. He'll probably keep you all to himself too.

[sanskrit]

I see. [he can see past prussia's words, but he's not going to comment on that.] I don't think England would be very happy about that nor my siblings.

[gezellig]

[Holland is just going to look at him, expression only asking one thing.

. . . and then he actually asks it, which makes his expression unnecessary.]

Are you stupid?

[proud_and_prussian]

No, you are, dumbass! Aren't we supposed to be trying to get along here!?

[proud_and_prussian]

You keep in touch with Eyebrows?

[He sounds genuinely surprised by this.]

I thought you'd hate the grouchy bastard. He was a pain in the ass back in those days.

[sanskrit]

Yes, quite often. We have tea together and talk business and old times.

Hate it a very strong word. It's not beneficial to my people these days to hold a grudge against him. We've done good and bad things to each other, but in the end I've become stronger and better because I've learned to embrace the future instead of dwelling in the past.

[gezellig]

Getting along to you means drawing on someone sleeping?

[Still eyeing the other nation over those shades. . . and the other's return insults get no reaction.]

[proud_and_prussian]

But if you hate him, then you'll want to get back at him for revenge! You'll grow stronger that way.

[proud_and_prussian]

It would've made a great picture! And you didn't have to be so anal over it, you could just wash it off with water or something.

[sanskrit]

A very wise man from my country taught me otherwise.

Revenge is an endless cycle of violence, but forgiveness and acceptance breaks that cycle. It takes the bigger and better man to apologize and forgive than the man who just uses weapons. If I fought with England longer than I did, I am pretty sure I would have been an angrier, bitter nation rather than a stronger one.

[proud_and_prussian]

That makes no sense! It just means you were weaker than your enemies, and you just gave up fighting because you couldn't do it! I bet if you showed Eyebrows who was boss, he'd never bother you ever again!

[sanskrit]

I came to realize seeing England as the enemy wasn't going to help, and I did not give up fighting. We simply took a different approach of nonviolence, one that confused many greatly. I think with England being able to realize the errors of his ways rather than me forcing him, he understood what had to be done.

[laughs a little to ease the tension.] The only thing England ever bothers me for is coming over and having tea with him because he wants company.
