Servus New Jersey,
sorry to hear that. Your boss sounds like one of the worst idiots I’ve ever heard of. Mei, after the Preiss, that is… I’ll never get what some people seem to find “pretty” about those weird spray tan things. Aren’t pale people just much more beautiful anyway especially when they have red hair and cute freckles?

Griaß di Ben,
I’m good again, merci. Even if it’s not unusual to find old bombs, normally they can be defused and don’t explode. It has been a bit since I felt that kind of pain and it brought back some pretty bad memories of course. But I’m fine again and I have my bel- best friend around too. I hope you’ve been good too.
Pfiadi, Joseph

Servus Feliciano,
that’s good. But still hearing that you’re so stressed between work and meetings, makes me even angrier at your siblings. Make sure to ta-… F-Felicerl!! Don’t put those heart things in random letters!
Those are all sorry excuses! Business before pleasure. And besides, I thought for you Italians family was most important. So how can they leave you alone like this all the time and make you do all the work? Feliciano, you need to have a word with them or they’ll do it again and again. This can’t go on forever. Not only the bomb’s explosion hurt like hell, but it also brought back bad memories. But I’m good again, don’t worry. Hammy is here too and we have an eye on each other.
Ja… Oh, let’s not even start talking about the things happening in the Arabic countries right now. Jessas, I wonder what’s going on with the world right now. It looks like Lutz had enough of it for real this time. His boss called mine yesterday and asked if he was down in Munich again. I didn’t tell them anything except that he’s not here, but maybe you should make him call his boss and tell her where he is. Ludwig never disappeared without a word before, so she’s rather worried.
Merci a lot, Feliciano! W-we try… I hope, we can make it… Things seem to work right now, but I’m still afraid that he might change his mind again… W-would be nice if he didn’t… and if we could be together… for a change. Thank you for the care package. I’m not really sure how tartufo was supposed to defuse the bomb, but it was delicious. Merci again, you’re too nice. No worries, as I wrote before, I’m fine again. Every now and then there’s a little sting in my chest, but most of the time I don’t even think about it anymore. A-and I have a little… well… d-distraction.
Pfiadi, Joseph

Bavaria-
Yeah... And straight after that I had to talk to his kid after finding out what his dad/my boss did made everyone in his school pissed off at him and tell the kid that it's not his fault and so on. I even bought that kid ice cream because I felt so bad for him for having an idiot of a father!
My older brother Connecticut keeps telling me that I'm the lucky one and that his boss is even worse. But it's not like he loses a lot of money from his boss! No, his boss gives him tons of money and free stuff without telling Connecticut where it's all coming from! And Connecticut is rich enough all ready (and has been rich for like most of his life)! I'm pretty sure by the time that this financial crisis is over he'll be the major financial center of the world or something. In my state we have a saying "Manage money or you die." Since the cost of everything is high here you have to be very good with money in order live in my state and if you don't... It's impossible.
Yeah, you are right... And people shouldn't even be using artificial tan! Whether it be from the can or the tanning booth, it's bad for you and for your skin! We have beautiful beaches here... why don't they start using it to get natural tan that comes from the fucking sun for fucking free? For example... I have some-what pale skin normally but when I want tan... I never use the can. Instead, I but some sunscreen on and go outside to do anything whether it be going to the beach, walking Sparky, go horseback riding, or go hiking. I earn my tan.

Dear Joseph,
I understand and it's great that you are feeling better again.
And thank you, jo... I have been feeling good. I just came back from walking Peltze.
He's growing up so fast!
Yours Truly,
Ben

Joseph,
Veeeee, mi dispiace for taking so long to write back~~ I-I've been so distracted with work, and Luddi had been here until he had to leave the 2nd, and I just haven't even thought of writing to anyone, I am so sorry~~ B-But, per favore, just don't pay them any mind... I've gotten a lot of work done, even when Luddi was visiting, so really it wasn't anything for you to get upset about. I want you to focus on happy things, ve, not on people who might be doing mean things. I want you to be happy~ <3
Veeeeee, family is before everything at least to me, I don't know about the others anymore but maybe their definition of family is just different? I'm really not upset by it anymore--If they don't want to be here, then I will be here to take care of the people I love and represent. Plus I have Joseph and my cousins for family! And the way things are, you're definitely better family than my siblings have been, so I'm not complaining for the extra time I might get to spend with you all~ <3 so long as I'm not working, anyway
But Joseph has been well, si? I-It's been nearly a month since I've written to you--a-and I feel so bad because I really like Joseph so I should be making sure to write or at least call more than once a month... Perdonami, Joseph~ Ti voglio bene~
Feliciano

Servus New Jersey,
sounds like back then when the Preiss corrupted little Lutz after he took him in. Sometimes you just can’t help feeling sorry for certain kids because of their “parents”.
Well… Sibling rivalry or bad bosses, there’s no use in complaining. You have to work hard, save money, make cuttings and work even harder. Then you can surpass all your siblings some time, believe me*. Better times will come, but you have to work hard for them.
Ja, I absolutely agree.
Uhm… May I ask you something…? You called Hammy “Mum” once, didn’t you…? You used to be close with him then, right…? Would you happen to know where he is right now?
Pfiadi, Bavaria
--- Bavaria used to be rather poor and received financial aid from the other German federal states until about 30 years ago. Now Bavaria is by far the richest federal state.

Servus Ben,
ja… Merci. Well… I felt better for a while.
Good. Is Peltze your dog since I don’t think you had kids? They grow up so fast indeed.

Servus Feliciano,
that’s okay. I hope you had a good time with Lutz then until he had to leave. Until earlier today I was kind of distracted too with Hammy staying over. Sorry, Feliciano. I’m sorry… I’m not happy. I begin to wonder if I can ever be happy at all…
How can their definition of family be different? You’re siblings. There’s no such thing like a margin of discretion or so unfortunately. Alright, do what you have to do, but I don’t want you all alone down there in Italy working yourself to death. Make sure to come and visit or to invite this better part of your family every now and then, ja?
Mei… I have been well until this morning, Feliciano. Hamish was here for the last weeks, he was getting better and we got much closer again after what had happened some months ago. I also was less afraid that he’d leave me again and I stopped panicking and clinging to him. I-it all seemed to work out. I even believed we could be happy together again, but… But when I came back from grocery shopping earlier, he was gone. His suitcase is gone too, so he must have left. And I can't reach him on his phone since hours. Feliciano… I don’t know what to do now. I don’t know what to think… or feel… I am so worried… scared even. I feel so weak and stupid and… meaningless. ... I thought it was okay to risk it... but only the next morning he's gone. What have I done...?
Joseph

I have been saving and cutting for my entire life! I worked hard for my money and I do have a large amount... But the thing is, I'm so much in debt right now because of my bosses. I believe that yes, better times will come but I just have to earn enough, and to get fat ass out of office, then I'll be able to pay off my debts. Yes, I did used to call Hamish 'mum' and we were close when I was younger... Well since I was his colony. But currently, I have know idea where he is at the moment. - New Jersey ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: Currently, New Jersey is the third richest state in the US and is ranked higher than Connecticut in the wealth factor.

Joseph,
Si, I did have fun with Ludwig while he was here, grazie for those well-wishes. And I hope that, d-despite the few phone calls we've had since your last letter, that you've been doing better, and I'm sorry that it took so long for me to respond to this.
I don't know, Joseph, but...during these past weeks, I've thought on what you said, and...you're right, ve. I shouldn't be letting them get away with all their free time and making me do their work for them. Because of that, I've been unable to see the people I care about as much as I want, and I've just been working too hard for my comfort level considering they've been scott-free from work for so long. It's done nothing but upset me, the people I care about and who care about me, and make me tired and fall behind in matters that I should have taken care of first-thing. So I talked to Monti, ve, so hopefully things will be set straight for when I come back to Luddi's house to visit. And of course, I will also visit Joseph and ask Joseph to spend time with Luddi and I up in Berlin. I've missed you, ve...
...I...I know that I'll just be repeating what I tried telling you on the phone a few weeks ago, but Joseph...Maybe he was called back to Scotland in a rush, like I had been when Monti had me fetched from Berlin earlier in the summer. But one thing, regardless of the reasoning Hamish had for leaving without leaving you a note, you have to remember is that you are not meaningless. Joseph is the most important person in my family, e-even if I've done the worst showing of that care I possibly could have the past few weeks. I love Joseph very, very much(as one of my closest friends, my cousin, and all those platonic ways you can love someone, ve)and he is not stupid, or meaningless, even if he has those moments of weakness. Even...even though you probably still won't understand what I mean, ve, you can't...hinge all of your happiness upon one person, ve. You're a very nice, fun person, and there are many people who would enjoy spending time with you, and helping you understand exactly how important you are to them. So you can't forget the fun times you've had with them, even though you're upset by this mean thing that Hamish has done. You can't forget that you can be happy without him constantly at your side. You're the one who helped me see that same thing, when I was so upset over Lovi and then so confused and scared about things with Ludwig. You deserve more than a single person to make you happy--Joseph deserves an entire world where he enjoys life and has friends and family and a love who accept everything about him, even if they do piss him off sometimes. And, while you're in a weak spot, I know there are people here who love you just as you are. You have that world, Joseph, and...I hope that this time that's passed has helped you see that, if only a little. If not, then I'll have to drag you up to Berlin with me so we can spend time together until I can see a smile on your face~ <3
Feliciano

Good evening New Jersey,
my apologies for the delay in responding, especially when in these times I should have contacted you right away to offer you a helping hand. May I ask how you have been doing since the hurricane? Please let me know if there is anything I could do to help you or your family.
Again I have to offer my apologies for that incorrect assumption. A good relationship with one’s siblings is precious and beautiful like a harp melody, yet unfortunately just as evanescent among nations. Don’t misunderstand me, please. Naturally I would never dream of denying your integrity. Quite the contrary, my impression of you is rather the one of a hardworking and prudent young man. These qualities will help you to get through the hard times to which your boss seems to add.
Thank you for your consideration. Fortunately it hasn’t been more than a minor misunderstanding. My dear Hamish had to return home unexpectedly because of a family affair. While circumstances haven’t allowed us to meet again, we are staying in touch with letters and telephone calls for the time being.
Mit besten Grüßen Bavaria

Good evening Ben,
please excuse my late reply. Recently I have rediscovered my love for the Quetschn and time seemed to be slipping through my fingers.
Thank you for your kind words. Please let me assure you that I am feeling fine again. I hope that you have been well?
I will have to agree on the fast growth of dogs, especially in comparison to children.
Mit besten Grüßen Joseph
__ Quetschn – Austrian and Bavarian word for accordion (the rest of Germany calls it Ziehharmonika or Akkordeon)

I'm getting better, but I can't really move much. I'm pretty much bed redden. Japan has been helping me to recover since I was visiting him at the time. So,. I'm going to be over at his place until I get better.Thank you for the offer. It is really thoughtful. It's fine. Well thank you. Most people wouldn't think of me in that way.... They see me as some no good bastard. Well I can be a bit stand offish at times, but I'm pretty nice to everyone. But anyway. Thanks. That's nice of him! You're a lucky guy, you know that? - New Jersey
