Lieber Schweiz,
are you sure? To me it sounds rather disproportional to threaten someone with a weapon who did nothing more than talk to Liechtenstein. You are not supposed to shoot or injure anybody! Ja, of course I remember that. But do you still remember the consequences and the diplomatic fallout you caused with this nonsense?
I highly doubt that, since it is in fact not obvious that you pointing a gun at someone doesn't mean that you hate him. Actually I had no idea that you don't hate me anymore.
Viele Grüße, Deutschland
((Sorry...^^; I thought about writing to you again, but I wasn't sure if that would be okay by you, since you still have several unanswered letters from others.))

Mio amico Luddi, Ooooh~ Ve, I was scared you'd really been struck by lightning since Luddi's posture is like a metal stick and he's really really tall! But I'm glad that Luddi wasn't, that would have been very bad~ Ve, is it really that bad that I don't have a filing system? The May 1998 agenda? Um, that year I was reading a book I'd gotten from Alfred for Christmas in '97, so it would be...Ve, it should be in my study, under the book "Monet: The Artist Speaks" in the back right corner on the...second side table towards the door and about....halfway down the stack of papers! Why do you want to know, Luddi? Oh, do you need to borrow it for something? I'll mail it to Luddi, and you don't have to hurry about bringing it back! Ve, grazie for the advice, Luddi... I'll talk to Lovi and see if we can find anyone who would be able to help us with this. You really do look out for me, grazie~~ Veeee, why do you have to be all the way up in Germania, Luddi?? I want to hug you now! Don't worry, Luddi! I'll make sure that every morning they're over, if it's a work day I'll send them home after breakfast so that they can get work done! Or I'll ask their bosses to send the work to my house if I can't get them to leave my room. Either way I'll help them get it done, I promise! I don't get it either, Lovi always yelled at them for calling me their little sister when we were able to see each other, but I don't think they understood. S-Si, I knew Holy Roman Empire. H-He lived with Mr. Roderich, Ms. Elizaveta, and I, before the...dissolution. Prego, Luddi~~ I hope you like it, I made it especially for you and any of your siblings you wanted to share it with! Ve, Luddi, I'm almost as old as Gilbert, and I am definitely older than Artu. I just didn't grow as fast as they did, with Mr. Roderich and fratellone Francis and everyone else picking on me and taking over my lan--!! I-I think that...Gilbert's right. It would be best if you didn't remember, Luddi. ....Francis would just know. But, be nice if you do ask, okay? He still feels so bad about it. Ve, it wasn't just that, though that had so much to do with it... Mr. Roderich was the reason that I wanted to leave. Their relationship was very strange. They were friends one day and bitter enemies the next, if I'm remembering correctly. Mr. Bavaria was usually nice when he saw me, he would give me a sweet if we had the chance to talk! But I don't know how bad it was in 1866, I was in Italia fighting for the Unification with Lovi. Oooh, I understand now! Lovi and I never really had that problem, since Italia was so many little nations that we both represented but couldn't really interact with, since with lived with Mr. Roderich and fratellone Antonio. Different sense of distance? Don't your kiss the people they love too, Luddi? I hug and kiss Lovi because I love him and he loves me! Why else would I hug and kiss him, Luddi? Tuo amico, Feliciano ((....I don't think so. *blinks* Well, he's going to find out sooner or later. I am very interested in your response when he finds, Corinna~ )

Lieber Deutschland, I dont care about your opinion on it, if I feel the need to defend her, than that is what I will do. And why not? Especially after what those dickheads do or did to me, why not? Yes. It was well worth it to see him covered in blood. I dont point a gun at the people I dont hate, often times. Have you ever seen me aim a weapon at Iraq or England? The others, well, even if I dont hate them, they can piss me off enough to pull out my arms. Yeah, but dont go mentioning it every chance you get.... Viele Grüße, Schweiz ((IknowImsorrysorrysorryifeelsobadnow))

Lieber Batu, that may be true. Since that happened a long time before I was born, you will have to excuse my lack of detailed knowledge though. Today it is the 21st anniversary of our unification. East's economy as well as about every other aspect of life has made a lot of progress. Our systems during our long separation were so different that it is no surprise that we can't achieve real equality in West and East within half that time. I am happy and proud of how much we reached by now though. A polar bear? The only polar bears we have over here are kept in a zoo. You could maybe ask Gilbert if he has an idea, since he had a famous zoo bear named Knut a while ago. But I am not sure if he can be of any help in this particular case. Viele Grüße, Deutschland Ludwig: I could ask Gilbert if I was in the mood. Don't forget that he not only blew up a wall in the Kazan Kremlin, but also groped some of my kids and tried to pull a prank on Mongoliya. Plus he also recruited Francis and Antonio for his weird adventures. (Why else would they be called the Bad Touch Trio?) Batu

Lieber Feliciano,
comparing my posture to a metal stick is strange. Ach du liebe Zeit... *facepalm* Ok, if you can keep track of your papers in this mess, it is up to you if you want to get a orderly filing or not. I asked you for it only to see if you can find it. You don't need to mail it to me since I have a folder where I keep all agendas of every world meeting since I started to attend them in 1815.
Old habits die hard, I guess. Since I am the personification of Germany it seems natural that I am in Germany. As I told you about a million times already, I would appreciate it if you don't hug me.
I count on you then.
Obviously they didn't understand then. I see. The Holy Roman Empire must have been an older brother of mine, but I never met him. My older brothers never talk about him, at least not in my presence, so that I only know about him from history books.
Thank you again. I ate some of it earlier after the meeting and it tastes very good. You are an amazing cook, Feliciano. Your cooking could even raise my moral again after the burdensome meeting my and France's boss had about the Euro crisis.
Ja, I know. Sometimes it is a little hard to believe for me that I am about the youngest country there is, since it was only about 200 years ago that I woke up in Gilbert's house. Countries seem to grow up corresponding to their degree of autonomy then, I think. How can it be best for me not to know a thing? Can you imagine how I feel being aware that every other country knows more about me than I do? *sigh* Back then Gilbert didn't say more than that I was the German Confederation, I was alive and that this was all that mattered. I will try and ask him again, but I don't think that he will tell me more now. To be honest, thinking about all that gives me a headache.
When I met Bavaria for the first time he was also very nice to me. Looking back I think it was even the first and only time he ever hugged me. But Gilbert was incredibly angry at him, welcomed him with a punch and would probably have beaten him up if Austria hadn't stepped in. I don't know why though, since I was too young to understand*. The war in 1866 was luckily the last time I witnessed my brothers fight each other.
Ja, different sense of distance. How else would you describe your tendence to hug people all the time, while I prefer to keep my distance? Of course we do. That goes not for brotherly love though, but for love as in... "love". Where I come from we kiss the one we love**.
Viele Grüße, Ludwig
-- Ach du liebe Zeit - oh dear
* Bavaria was allied to France, who helped him become an independent kingdom again, when the Holy Roman Empire was dissolved. Some years later he changed sides though and fought against France together with the other German countries. ** Aaaah... I tried to put it the way Italy said it to HRE when they said goodbye, but I can't remember the exact wording. ^^;
((I don't think so either. xD))

Mio amico Luddi,
Well, your spine does stay that straight, Luddi~ Ve, I think I might want to organize soon though, I've bought some more books but I need to reorganize my bookshelf if I want to keep them in my study. Oh~ It was there, but I also found the agenda from 1874 in the same stack so maybe I take Luddi's advice... Plus some of my notes for the Famiglia are in here, and if someone sees those I'll get in more trouble than I already am~ You save all the papers from the meetings too, Luddi? I feel so bad for all the poor trees they used to make the paper, so I never throw them out~ I have some really cute drawings of the other nations on the backs of some of them too~
Ve, I'm still thankful~ If Luddi wasn't looking out for me when Lovi isn't around I don't know what would happen! Grazie! Aw, Luddi should visit sometime, like you used to! You can do your work out in the garden and I'll make you lunch and we can enjoy the weather! Per favore? Why doesn't Luddi like me hugging him, ve? We're amici and I like hugging Luddi~
S-Si, Holy Rome would have been your...older brother if he hadn't died while fighting fratellone Francis. He was the youngest of your nonno Germania's grandchildren, before Luddi came, so I think that's why they don't talk about him very much... Ve, Holy Rome was a lot like Luddi. He had short blonde hair and really pretty blue eyes and he was always very serious. He had a strange way of talking, and he scared me sometimes, since he always watched me when I was doing chores. But Holy Rome was also really nice, making me food even though it wasn't very yummy, or letting me paint even though Mr. Roderich wanted me to do chores... He always wore black robes and a large black hat, and he didn't smile very much. But when he did... Ve, Holy Rome was a lot like Luddi.
I-It turned out alright?? Ve, that's good~ It's been so long since I've made patata pasticcio that I wasn't sure I had remembered the recipe. I-It was that good?? Yay! I'm glad that it helped Luddi feel better, once you're finished with it I'll send you something just as yummy~
Luddi really is amazing though, you're so young and you became important so quickly~ Ve, you grew even faster than Alfred! Ve, I think that you're right, Lovi and I grew very slowly compared to the other nations... Francis used to tease me about that, since he was only a bit older than me but so powerful so much faster. I remember when everyone was little and we all played together though, when Nonno was still alive. Even then they were bigger than I was. Isn't it funny? It's like nothing's changed, but everything's different~ Luddi, per favore, I don't know all the details, I might end up telling you something false if you ask me... I-I don't want to tell you but then it...being a lie, va bene? M-Mi dispiace, Luddi, but I just...c-can't. I-I'm sorry, please don't be upset! V-Ve, if it hurts then don't think about it, Luddi! Per favore??
...I'm glad that Mr. Bavaria was nice to you, Luddi. Thinking back...I'm so glad that he he hugged you then. Even if he's not happy with you now, just remember that he loves you, okay? Ve, they all do. Though I can't blame Gilbert for being so angry with Mr. Bavaria, I...wasn't very happy with him, fratellone Francis, or Mr. Roderich at the time either.
Ve, is 'sense of distance' the same as...ve, what's the term...'personal space'? I think that's what Arthur always yells at Francis when Francis sits by him at the meetings... But I do love Lovi, Luddi, he's mi amo--- L-Ludwig, w-why did you say that?? I-I--T-That's what I-- Ludwig, where did you hear that?!
Tuo amico, Feliciano

Lieber Schweiz,
I am aware of the fact that you don't care. This is not defending anymore, but cutting her off from the others. What is it that those dickheads do or did to you? You can't be serious! America was just standing next to Liechtenstein, neither did he touch her nor talk to her. Nevertheless you seriously want to tell me that shooting him was all right? Didn't being grounded by your boss make you realise anything?
I witness you pointing a gun at Austria at times and I know that he is one of the nations you don't hate. I won't.
Viele Grüße, Deutschland
((Aaaah! No! That wasn't my intention! >_< Sorry!))

Lieber Goldene Horde,
"don't forget" is probably expressing it wrong, since I never knew about this in the first place. I haven't been around before the early nineteenth century. That is what Gilbert did? Groping children doesn't sount like him, so I would be aghast if he did. France and Spain don't need to be recruited for weird adventures as far as I know. The three of them have been causing trouble ever since I can remember, which is not too long admittedly. I don't know who or why they came up with that weird name though.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Deutschland

Lieber Feliciano,
that is because of the training. I have to admit that I had to let it slide recently because of the desk work though. Your office sounds really confusing to me. Ja, I keep all the papers from the meetings, but not for the trees' memory. *sigh* I know that you like to doodle during meetings...
Thank you for the invitation, but I have to decline for now unfortunately. My and France's boss decided yesterday to work out a catalogue of measures for the Euro crisis until the end of the month. It is not only about supporting the countries in financial troubles, but also to stabilise the banking system. And then there's the (maybe) dept cut for Greece. Na ja, I will have a lot of work to do in the next couple of weeks. Ja, we are friends. But I keep telling you that one doesn't hug his friend all the time.
Thank you for telling me that much, Feliciano. I am aware that it must be painful to talk about someone you knew who passed away, especially since I seem to remind you of him. I am sorry to have asked.
It was very good. Please don't trouble yourself so much. I am sure that you have enough work to do yourself.
Thank you. Well, I was raised by an amazing brother after all. That must have been nice. When I was a child I had only my grown-up brothers to play. Well, Gilbert didn't always act his age admittedly and sometimes he was more childish than I. Don't worry too much about it, please. It is obviously difficult for you to talk about it, so I don't want to force you. I will ask Gilbert some time. But for now, I guess it is indeed better to leave it be. You are right, I will try not to think about it for now. My head hurts badly... It feels as if... there is something I should know, but can't... and maybe don't want to... That doesn't make any sense, does it?
Ja, it is nice to know that my brothers still like me, even if some of them don't act like it too often. That time was not pleasant for anyone I guess, since almost the entire continent was involved in the wars or at least affected by them.
Personal space, that is exactly what I wanted to say. That is what everybody yells at France during meetings. You should have seen him yesterday. *sigh* I also love my brothers, but not like that. Romano is your what? Where I heard that...? I don't know. Nowhere? I don't think that I've ever heard anyone say that. It just seemed to make sense somehow.
Viele Grüße, Ludwig
((Oh my... Feli is so cute sometimes! >_< ))

Tuo amico Luddi,
Ve, training with Gilbert? But he never stands that straight...He must be a very good teacher then, if he can teach Luddi to do things he doesn't do himself~ It's really not that confusing, Luddi, there are just stacks of paper along the back wall, where I keep all the papers I don't need~ Why does Luddi keep the papers if not to remember the trees? V-Ve, I try to pay attention, Luddi, but sometimes Alfred makes a funny face or Luddi is laughing a little bit behind his hand so the others don't know he's laughing or Lovi is smiling when he's talking to someone and I want to make sure I don't forget what that looks like~
That sounds very important, but if Luddi needs a break you just tell me and you can either come down here and relax or I'll drive up to visit Luddi and make him something yummy and filling so that he doesn't have to worry about making food for himself! I don't want Luddi to become too stressed, it's not healthy, ve~ I hug Luddi because that's how I show that I like him! Actions are just as meaningful as words after all!
V-Ve, you're welcome, Luddi. It's a-alright, prometto! Luddi and Holy Rome are similar but there are ways that you're different too. Don't be sorry Luddi, it's not a...bad hurt to remember him or to tell you what he was like, it's just sad that he's gone. I've started to come to terms with Holy Rome's death Luddi. He's n-never...coming back, but why shouldn't I remember him? He was mio primo amore my only friend when I was living with Mr. Roderich, he...deserves to be remembered. So don't be sorry Luddi, I don't mind telling you about Holy Rome.
Cooking for Luddi isn't any trouble at all, ve! Cooking is what I do during my breaks, after all~ I'm not sleeping very well testing some new recipes so during siesta time or the fifteen minutes I give myself between stacks of paperwork I've been cooking! It's starting to get cold out and we've already harvested the garden, so there isn't much else to do to relax. So if Luddi wants anything special just tell me, ve~
You're welcome, Luddi! Ve, they were all grown-up? I was still only a teenager then, Lovi and I really did grow up slowly compared to everyone else... Did Gilbert play with you a lot, Luddi? He always seemed so busy with all the battles he was fighting at the time...
I-I would tell you Luddi, I would, but...I just don't want to lose Luddi too, and Gilbert...Gilbert can't go through that again. We promised Gilbert we wouldn't say anything. W-Wait, Luddi? Luddi, please think of something else! C-Count sheep, or think of ways to help with the Crisis, or maybe the fun times that Kiku and you and I had, just not this, okay?? Please Ludwig, you don't have to know, don't have to remember so please please please...just stop pushing, I don't want to lose Luddi too...
They may not know how to show it anymore, Luddi. Just don't forget that they do love you. Si, everyone was fighting about something, though fratellone Francis became everyone's target soon after that. But I'm grateful, if my people hadn't heard of these other wars for independance and how they were succeeding, I wouldn't be with Lovi right now, I'd still be with Mr. Roderich, sweeping his hallways or dusting. Or...I might not be here at all. Ve, who knows what could have happened.
I don't understand why they all yell at Francis so often though, he's not always touching people inappropriately...He's very nice~ Ve, what was he doing yesterday, Luddi? I thought he was more professional when his boss was watching him. Lovi? Oh, Lovi is mi amore! Why else would I kiss him, Luddi? Lovi doesn't like anyone in his personal space, why would I risk upsetting him if I didn't love him and know he loved me too?
O-Oh. T-That was...N-Nevermind, Luddi~ You just...startled me after saying that, that's all!
Tuo amico, Feliciano
((I know, isn't he? *Giggle* XD There we go~~ I hope you enjoy this one~))

Lieber Japan, that we were not exchanging correspondence on a regular basis was not only your fault. So I have to apologize as well. I am answering the letters during the breaks I allow myself to take between the reports I have to write. What do you mean by saying it is not healthy? Italy said something similar. Why does everybody think that I am overworking myself? I can guarantee you that I have everything under control. Italy did mean those things back then, but I can't blame him for it since I really treated his people badly. I am glad though to be able to say that we made up again in the meantime. I am happy to hear that you are getting better. All the natural disasters lately were terrible. Please let me know if I can be of any help to you. You really don't have to feel bad about asking for assistance given this situation. Again... There is no need to worry about me. Please don't apologize all the time, Japan. I am happy to receive your letters. Viele Grüße, Germany ((Hurray for Japan. Welcome! )) Doitsu-san, It seems that we may be both at fault. Perhaps we should move on from there? Doitsu-san, we are merely concered about you and wish for your well being. I hope you do not think badly of us for doing so. Friends are suppposed to take care of each other. It also helps that we have worked with you before.. I am glad everything is well between you two. Perhaps you could go out to celebrate that? I believe that may improve your relationship to a higher degree. Thank you for worrying about me. I appreciate the sentiment. Still, I have been well and you may put your fears at rest. Please do not worry about me, I am sure you have enough on your plate to need to add another burden. I assure you I am fine enough. Please take good care of yourself for the time being. I shall do what I can to ensure I will keep on a good path. I am a Japanese man. On my honour I shall do my best to ensure sure and swift recovery! If you say so, Doitsu-san, but if you ever feel that you have enough on your plate, please do not hesitate to inform me. I would not be able to forgive myself if I have imposed myself onto you when you already have so many responsibilities. Japan Honda Kiku

Lieber Feliciano,
unfortunately Gilbert only joins sports if it is something he has fun doing, like playing soccer for example. I keep the papers to remember what we were talking about in meetings. Like that I can e.g. prove that a climatologist warned us about the progressing climate change accompanied by increasing natural disasters already several decades ago. That is what you are drawing during meetings? I admit that is indeed kind of nice... But nevertheless you have to pay attention during meetings! Doodling instead is inexcusable.
I am truely sorry, but considering that this has to be done as soon as possible, I don't think that I can afford a break now. Stop worrying all the time! Honestly, everything is fine. You don't have to hug me to show me your care. Recently you prove it well enough by watching my eating habits against my will .
Is it really alright by you? It seems to trouble you a lot and given that he was your only friend at that time this is not surprising at all. He is lucky to have a friend like you who perpetuates his memory.
Cooking is your stress relief then, I understand. But what happened to your beloved siestas when you are even cooking during your siesta time? As far as I remember you could never do without them and wouldn't stop whining when I tried to make you practise instead. Thank you, but I don't really want anything special. To be honest I don't have much appetite recently, probably because I don't do as much sports as I used to and thus my body doesn't need as much food.
Most of my brothers were grown-up then, even though not all of them are of the same age. They are all a lot older than I am though. During the first years I remember Gilbert and the others were still very occupied with the Napoleonic wars. But in his free time Gilbert often played with me. To be honest sometimes it was even him who made me play altogether.
I don't understand what you are trying to say by that. Firstly why do you think that you would lose me, and secondly why "too"? *sigh* However, I think I know what you mean concerning my brother. During the first weeks after I came around Gilbert's behaviour was quite weird. He insisted that I had to stay in bed and even when I felt better after a while he would keep his eyes glued to me. When I secretly sneaked out once he was absolutely besides himself with worry until he found me. He hugged me with trembling arms, cried and wouldn't let go. Was... was that maybe because he had lost a little brother some time before? You promised him...? I always suspected that you had a secret agreement, since everybody kept avoiding my questions. Earlier I tried to ask Saxony, but he pretended not to hear me and took off. Don't worry, please. It was just a little headache, but I am feeling better again now and I am trying not to think about it. Ultimately I am not even sure if there is anything I could remember at all. I have enough work that can take my mind off things.
It was probably best how things went after all, even if we had to go through very bad times now and then. *sigh* But today everything seems to be fine. We survived so many wars that the financial crisis almost seems like a problem that can be solved easily... Nevertheless we can't take it lightly of course.
France is... Nevermind, I don't think that I could explain it to you appropriately when I couldn't even get you to stop hugging me after all those years. Ja, France can be nice at times, but he also knows too well how he can drive me up the wall. Romano is your... love? Are you serious... I mean, you love him? You two are in love with each other? ... That... I didn't see that coming... Uhm, congratulations on that, I guess... Sorry, I am at a loss for words.
It startled you that over here we kiss the one we love?
Viele Grüße, Ludwig
((Oh my... I hope this sounds half-way IC... ^^; ))

Lieber Japan,
let's do so, I quite agree with you.
I am sorry if my last letter gave you the impression that I would think low of you. It may have sounded rude, which wasn't my intention at all. Thank you for your concern, I am lucky to have friends like you. But I assure you that your worries are ungrounded.
Unfortuantely my work doesn't allow me to go out and celebrate recently. My and France's bosses decided to work out a catalogue of measures for the Euro crisis, about the support for the countries in financial troubles, as well as the stabilisation of the banking system. I have to get this done within the next two weeks and France doesn't seem to be a lot of help as usual. Italy's and my relationship doesn't need much improvement right now luckily, since we get along quite well.
That is a relief to hear, especially since I heard about the new earthquake yesterday. As you said yourself, we are friends and thus I can't simply stop worrying about you given those natural disasters. Please don't hestitate to ask for assistance if I can help you. My paperwork may me important, but never as much as a friend's life.
Don't worry so much, please. I rather consider your letters a nice distraction that prevents me from going insane with all the work.
Viele Grüße, Deutschland

Mio amico Luddi,
Ooooh~ Ve, then who trained Luddi to have such a pole-like spine? Because that's not something you're born with~ Oh, speaking of calcio, congratulations on your third-place in the World Cup, Luddi! Ve, I was so happy that you won against Uruguay, and your game versus fratellone Antonio was very very amazing too! I was so upset when my own team lost to Slovakia and we were knocked out so early... But Luddi's team did amazing~ Ve, why do you need to prove things like that, Luddi? Si, I always draw the expressions I don't see the you or Lovi or the other nations make very often, so I don't ever forget them~ I have a few drawings of Arthur smiling, and one of Mr. Roderich laughing, and even a few of Mr. Russia smiling without making me want to run away and hide in my cellar until he goes away! O-Oh, don't worry Luddi, I'll be very sure to pay attention to the meetings right now!
I understand Luddi, but I just want to make sure you know that I'm willing to come cook for you if you needwant me to, ve~ Oh, I'm not worrying, I know that Luddi will take care of himself but if Luddi needs help then I'm here! I'm not very good back-up when it comes to fighting, as Luddi remembers, but I can make sure that Luddi always has a nice meal or something to relax with if he wants me to! Ve, hugging is the fastest way though, isn't it? If I cooked for Luddi every time he does something that makes me want to hug him then Luddi would get fat~ And then I wouldn't get to spend as much time with him because I'd be in the kitchen and that would make me sad~ So I'm going to hug Luddi and make food for the times that he forgets to cook for himselfvery special occasions~
...Si, it is...alright with me. It does hurt a bit to talk about him, but at the same time, I felt...lighter, telling Luddi about Holy Rome. So if Luddi does want to know more, I can tell him. I-I'm sure that he would like to be remembered, so why would I ever forget him even though it hurt so much to dream about him on to wake up remembering he was dead when he was so special to me? He doesn't deserve to be forgotten, no one does...
Ve, I guess it is! I always feel better after cooking something and seeing how happy people are to eat my food~ O-Oh, I just...have been having nightmareshaven't been very sleepy lately, that's all! And for a while there was so much paperwork that my bosses wouldn't let me take my siestas or go home to sleep at allso that it could be done on time. I don't like missing them but if I'm waking up screaming not sleepy then I'm not sleepy, I guess~ V-Ve, Luddi, you are eating healthy though, even if you aren't hungry, right??
I'm glad that Luddi had Gilbert to play with at least~ Oh, that doesn't really surprise me, I think that Luddi preferred reading books on war-tactics and philosophy rather than going outside and playing hide and seek, si?
...I can't tell you Luddi, I just...I just can't, si? Just please, fiducia in me, Luddi. Se dico che potrei perdere Luddi, e non voglio rischiare che! Per favore, non mi chiedere di nuovo... V-Ve, Luddi, you ran away from Gilbert?? That explains...why he came over to Mr. Roderich's house so upset...That wasn't good, not at all, Luddi! What if you had gotten hurt?? Gilbert...Luddi is right in his guess, si. August 6, 1806. Si, I promised him, and Gilbert promised me once I learned about what happened. V-Ve, the headache is gone? Sia lode a Dio... Please promise me, Luddi, that you won't think about that anymore, si? Per favore, Luddi, I don't want Luddi to hurt...
Si, I agree with Luddi. Everything has happened for a reason, especially the bad times. It is Dio's way of helping shape us into the nations...no, the people we are today, ve. But I don't agree with Luddi about the crisis. This feels...worse to me than any war. In war, there is always the option of fleeing and hiding, or being neutral to hopefullybe left in peace and out of trouble. But this...this is something that hurts everyone so badly, and there's no way to run away. I won't ever take something that affects my people so badly 'lightly', I promise.
Ve, what is fratellone Francis? Oooh, nevermind, Luddi wants me to drop the topic~ Though...I don't know what my hugging mio amico Luddi has to do with how Francis is, especially with how much he bothers you...
I am very serious, Luddi. Lovi is...Ve, I can't even think of words that can describe what Lovi is to me. Lovi is as important to me as the sun, but...there's more to Lovi than that. He's...my everything, Luddi. He always has been, he always will be, a-and I-I-- ....Does Luddi...not approve?
N-No, it's not that, it's just... Before Holy Rome left, I...He asked, "What do people do for someone they love at your home?" And I-I said...where I come from, we kiss the ones we love... V-Ve, it's silly how Luddi had the same answer I-I did, right??
Tuo amico, Feliciano
((...that was very much a Germany answer and that has put Feli in a state of panic. Oh boy. *chuckles* I liked your response~ And this is only so late because my computer went stupid on me for a second and I lost half of the letter and I had to start over. *sigh* Stupid technology...))

Lieber Feliciano,
can't you think of a nicer description? When I was still little I trained together with my brothers, but after the war most of them became lazy and I continued on my own. Thank you, Italy! I was also shocked that your team was out so early, since you were the previous world champion and Gilbert wanted revenge for 2006. Spain's team is amazing, we lost to them in the world cup as well as in the European championship. I can't wait for next year's Euro and our next try. Poland and Ukraine are going to host it together, that will surely be interesting. This evening our team is going to play against Belgium's in the qualifying round. Wouldn't it be easier to take photographs instead?
Thank you, that is very nice and appreciate your offer. As I see you are not planning on giving this hugging up... You could just tell me, that is even faster than hugging or cooking, less troublesome and not as embarrassing.
You are right, he surely didn't deserve to be forgotten. Na ja... I don't want to make you think of something that hurts you or even make you talk about it, but if there is something you want to share with me, well,... I would be glad to listen.
You, not very sleepy... Italy, what is the matter now? Is there anything else besides Venice that worries you? J-ja, of course. As I said earlier, I have enough time left in my schedule for three meals a day and of course I pay attention to have a balanced nutrition.
Reading a book about war tactics as a child? What do you take me for? Nein, a lot of great authors lived at that time like E.T.A. Hoffmann, Novalis, Josef von Eichendorff, Georg Büchner, Heinrich Heine, Theodor Fontane,*... I also read fictional works. Playing with Gilbert for a change was nice nevertheless.
Feliciano, non capisco un'acca... I still don't understand your fear, but seeing that it troubles you I won't ask again. No, I didn't run away. I was just bored and went in the garden to read, but I fell asleep under a tree before Gilbert came home. It was nothing actually, but Gilbert was worried sick when he found my room empty. August 6, 1806... I know from history books that this was the day the Holy Roman Empire's Emperor abdicated the throne and dissolved the Empire... actually he couldn't do the latter without the Imperial Diet's approval,... but no one opposed, my brothers were at war... and no one thought about... and suddenly everything went black... Verdammt... What was...? Nein, I won't think about it again, I promise.
Thinking about it like God's doing to form us is a little comforting, I have to admit. Although I refuse to take this as excuse to decline all responsibility. You think so? Well... I am only 200 years young and this is already the third or fourth finance crisis I see. It is maybe a little worse this time because of the globalisation and that we are all caught in it. But I will never forget the inflation in 1922 and 1923 in Germany, when from one day to the next 1 US-Dollar was worth 4,2 billions Mark. The money wasn't even worth the paper it was printed on... I will do everything in my power to prevent a second tragedy like that.
I keep telling you that your hugging bothers me as well, don't I?
O-okay... I understand, I think.... So, you and Romano are a couple then...? You said he felt the same for you, didn't you? Well... Me, approve? I don't think I have the right not to do so. If you both are happy, there is no reason for me to... well... oppose. I am just... surprised. That is a thought I have to get used to, I admit.
Oh... I didn't know that. This is in fact a peculiar coincidence.
Viele Grüße, Ludwig
-- * true, they are fictional. But those are the evil books our German teachers torture us with at school. They are not suited for children. xD
