[A] - (The streets of Mayfield)

[It's a ridiculous sight, really. Not as if Holland would care how he appears to anybody but himself but he's--

 He's walking his bunny.

The small animal has a bright orange harness on, there is a leash attached, and he's slowly walking down the sidewalk as Poffertje investigates various plants, cracks in the sidewalk, and bushes.

Netherlands himself looks very subdued, maybe even more so than usual; he looks downright depressed.]

[B] - (1245 Williams Rd - Taiwan's house)

[It was pretty decent of a person, Holland supposed, so check on somebody after you ended up shooting them. Even if they had been a zombie at the time.

He'd killed Japan. It wasn't fair that he'd had to kill Japan, and Taiwan's phone call had him very worried. All he could think of was the way that Hilbert had never come back after he'd been killed; even though he'd died himself and had come back, and so had Canada and Hilda. . . the way Taiwan spoke just left him unsettled. Holland could never be alright with the way people died here; there was just too much uncertainty.

He'll be knocking on the door now.]
   
[C] - (1447 Mitchell Rd)

[Residents will find notdad lying on his back in the tulips in the front yard, staring morosely at the blue sky, watching the clouds. The bunny leash is held loosely in his hand, and Poffertje seems content in the plants, nibbling.  In his other hand is a cigarette.

There's no sign whatsoever of movement.]

Pointless to pretend.

[After a moment, he hands Poffertje over. Look how stylish the bunny is in his walking vest . . .]

[naicha]

A real man doesn't show his true emotions! _{[ Takes Poffertje and hides part of her face with him, so cute... ]}

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

[Yes well Taiwan, you're very manly.]

We're not even humans. It's better to be direct.

[. . . . ]

I'm hungry.

[Like that, see.]

[naicha]

At least ask nicely!

_{[ But he's a guest, so either way, she would have gone to the kitchen to fix up some snacks. She's taking the bunny with her. ]}

I can't imagine how Japan dealt with this before, you know! Jeez...

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

Dealt with what. . .

[Such an attitude, Taiwan. He comes along.]

[naicha]

Anyway, I made too much cake today, so you can have a slice. Or you can take some melon bread if you want. _{[ She's referring to the basket of melon bread on the counter. Don't mind her, she's checking the fridge for any cakes he'd like. ]}

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

[Avoiding just like Japan. . .he does take a piece of bread, using the silence for a few moments.]

[naicha]

_{[ Like daughter, like brodad. ]}

Ah! I'm proud of this one. _{[ She places a plate of a slice of cake on the counter nearest Holland, then pulls open a drawer and gets a fork. She holds it out for him to take. ]}

Are you gonna eat it or not? 10, 9, 8, 7...

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

[Taking the fork. . . wow, Taiwan, he's not 5. ]

What's so good about it?

[Huff.]

[naicha]

It's made with love and affection and it's got a Hello Kitty face on it. _{[ Taiwan shows him the rest of the cake. See? Wow, she's kind of hungry now. She gets a slice for herself, too. ]}

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

It's-

[Wow that's. . . . it's really nice, actually. He takes a bite, slowly.]

You like decorating them this way?

[naicha]

Yeah! The taste of the food you make is important, but presentation counts too, you know! If your food looks ugly, no one would ever eat it!

_{[ She sounds very enthusiastic about this compared to how she was a few moments ago... ]}

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

So who else could you put on a cake. . .

[He feels just a little better too. Taiwan, you're a little infectious.]

[naicha]

_{[ It's her job to be happy!! ]}

Holland's Miffy would look good on one! Oh, does she have a boyfriend? Maybe we can make both of them and put 'em on a big cake with, hmm, m... mangoes...

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

Nijntje would look good on a ca--

[Taiwan. . .]

She's too young for a boyfriend!

[Appalled!]

[naicha]

Ehhh, but... Hello Kitty has a boyfriend! _{[ Yeah, you know, the kitty Japan copied from you hahahaha ]} She's younger than Miffy, isn't she? Aiyo, poor bunny, she's going to die an old maid...

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

Nijntje--

She's in primary school!

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

. . . Hello Kitty has a boyfriend?

[naicha]

_{[ N... no, Miffy forever... ]}

Yes! His name is Dear Daniel. He likes photography and dancing. He's super smart, super cute and super rich, too! I want a boyfriend like him. Oh, but I don't want a cat for a boyfriend! Ehehe, that's silly.

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

[Mind blown. Mostly just because he's amazed at how much he suddenly doesn't care. . . maybe Taiwan is being a little cute, maybe.]

. . . . it seems you'll be alright.

[naicha]

_{[ Just a bit. But now she looks upset again. ]}

... I told you! So don't worry. _{[ picks Poffertje up and cuddles with him. ]}

He'll come back anyway.

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

I hope he does.

. . . I saw him a few days ago, but he wasn't himself.

[naicha]

Oh yeah, that.

I couldn't stop him, hehe...

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

[How can he say it, how can he say it. . . don't be mad, Taiwan. . .]

I stopped him.

[naicha]

You did? _{[ She's more surprised than anything else. ]}
