Zwei. [Video]

[Some of you may remember Germany. Yes, that's that unfriendly, disbelieving nation that was on the network a mere week ago, displaying a sour mood and willingness to yell at everyone and their pet rabbit. Considering he's been stuck on this island for a week now, still fails to understand the time difference between the present nations and for some odd reason is wearing this when appreaing on the screen... His mood is not one bit better than before. In fact, he looks ready to strangle someone. Just that that's difficult with plush hooves covering his hands. Tough luck.]

Halloween?

[Note the remotely dangerous intonation.]

What... Is the meaning of this? Who was that woman and where is she now? Also, who is responsible for this ridiculous costume and how do I take it OFF!?! [And he's only getting louder.] I didn't give permission to this infamy so I demand that my person gets freed from this-...this...THIS!

[His voice becomes more of a growl.] Unless whoever did this wants me to hunt them down personally. [And this is where a plush-hoof comes into view, shaking angrily. Yes, this would have been a fist. Only that a fist would be far more intimidating.] But once I get my hands on you, I sewar I will-- [But... Germany cuts himself off, glancing down at his hoof hand. His right eyebrow twitches. Luckily, his face is pretty red already due to simply being angry, so the rising embarrassment isn't too obvious. Oh, the humiliation.]

[He ends up quickly pulling his hand down again and clears his throat, continuing in a somewhat calmer, yet still upset voice.] What I meant to say is... I'm not going to tolerate this! Regardless who is responsible for it. I will find them. And they shall be rightfully punished! Unless they want to surrender willingly. If that is the case, this is your chance!

[O~kay. This takes a moment to register and come to terms with. The irritated twitch in Germany's scowl marks the progress. Finally, he lets out something akin towards being a muffled groan before grimacing.]

Verdammt. It's not some kind of carnival going on, I hope.

[Though he basically could know better, Germany's been a bit busy as to keep track on the cultural developements taking place at America's place during the past few decades. Stupid wars.]

[grancenturio]

I would not rule it out in this point in time.

[kartoffelstampfer]

Ah. Ist dem so?*


[[*Is that so?]]

[grancenturio]

It would certainly explain how ostentatious these are.

[kartoffelstampfer]

I don't think the tastelessness of these require any explanation. I just want to get rid of it.

[grancenturio]

I have made every attempt to shed mine, with no success.

[kartoffelstampfer]

So we're stuck in these. Wunderbar.

[grancenturio]

I hope it's only for a few days until the celebration is over.

[kartoffelstampfer]

And what if simply waiting it out doesn't solve this problem after all?

[grancenturio]

Then we try something else, of course.

[kartoffelstampfer]

Doesn't exactly sound like a very solid plan. But these celebrations<7I> must have an end at some point, that's true.

[grancenturio]

I admit, I have had better plans.

[kartoffelstampfer]

Do you?

[grancenturio]

I'm not at my best a few days after arrival to a strange place.

[kartoffelstampfer]

May I ask where you have been before?

[grancenturio]

The country is known as Bronquia.

[kartoffelstampfer]

Bronquia?

[Beat.]

No. I can't say I ever heard of that country before.

[grancenturio]

I am not terribly surprised, considering the range of places we come from.

[kartoffelstampfer]

Which is still something I find quite hard to believe.

[grancenturio]

It is curious, but not impossible.

[kartoffelstampfer]

Why not? If you ask me it's highly impossible!

[grancenturio]

Then you have simply not experienced something that compares to it.

[kartoffelstampfer]

But you have?

[grancenturio]

Yes.

[kartoffelstampfer]

How so?
