France’s Ego

I love it when this fandom gives characters ego’s, but I’ve been sort of disappointed with France’s one. Everyone always talks about how egotistical he is about is looks, or raising other countries, or maybe the wars. But what I want to see it France being a little gremlin. Because fun fact, France was the first European country to re-build and re-plan their cities in the wake of urbanization. France literally rebuilt Paris from eh ground up to add larger streets, rows of trees, public parks, and boulevards. 

So I want to see France hold it over Englands head that during the second industrial revolution, that even while England was revolutionizing germ theory, France started the trend of re-planning cities to accolade more people, and that the rest of Europe followed France’s lead. 

I want France to talk to Italy about architecture near England to just rub it in his face that he didn’t think of re-planning the cities first, I just France to have a legitimate win that he can be egotistical about, something he did that bettered the world. Yeah he’s pretty, yeah he was on the winning side of both world wars, but he also esstainly started the trend of not living in overcrowded cities. 

Sick S/O

I’ve posted on another site about this before, but I have read a lot of fan fictions where Italy (Hetalia) has been really worried that his S/O will die because of being sick, and I head cannon that it’s because of the Black Death. The Black death was a plague in the middle ages, some spectators say it could have been the bubonic plague, but there is varying evidence to support that, and Italy was hit quite bad. I mean, a lot of places were hit bad, but some places in Italy were estimated to have lost half to two thirds of their entire populations. So, Italy probably always takes being sick very seriously, and intentional or not, I really appreciate it when I see it in fan fictions. 

I remember long ago, when I was a university freshman...

England: I would like to know the reason you miss meeting by meeting. America: well, my schedule (skɛʤʊl) is tight now. England: you meant schedule (ʃɛdjuːl). America: schedule. England: sche-dule. America: who told you it is correct? England: I did, and moreover, I taught you English yer shitty... America: so why do you say school (skuːl) like that? England: keeps the silence of confusion.

NOTE: both variants are good and useful, though I have been learning UK standard since school. so the American English is still specific to me.

dirty, broken, pathetic but beloved.
