[ shot through the heart, and zura's to blame!!

he was actually feeling pretty flattered at katsura telling him he has no beer gut. oh my god, what a nice guy! ... but then he follows it with that and the color just drains out of america's face. ]

Dude--

[ oh but then they're moving on. he just sort of deflates after that. ]

I just wanted to get something to eat, dude.

[bakudanma]

Then lets get something to eat together. I have something important to talk to you about.
_{[ He stands up, then looks around the area, taking notice of the food selection at the carts around here.
He looks over his shoulder at America. ]}

Did you pick this area because of the Japanese cuisine?

[bigstick]

[ man, way to sound so serious. he opens his mouth to ask if it but then gets caught off guard by katsura. that just makes him grin widely as he stands up, nodding in enthusiasm. ]

Hell yeah, dude! I know you don't really like the McCERES food so I thought we'd get something simple around here! It's been a hot minute since I had some good soba anyway.

[bakudanma]

_{[ Oh. This gets a little smile out of him. A tiny one. Its an accomplishment and America should feel proud. ]}

You enjoy soba then? When did you eat it last?

[bigstick]

[ a nod and he moves to catch up with katsura, nodding to indicated they should head towards the carts now. ]

Not in Cerealia, nah. Probs the last time I visited Japan -- I mean, Japan the Nation, not like the physical country. Though I was in the physical country to visit him but you know what I mean! Me and him got some food and played some games for a while. It's always better when I make the trip to get it instead of getting whatever I can at home.

[bakudanma]

_{[ Japan? Oh, right. Nation things. He doesn't question it. To Zura, it's totally cool.
He heads to one of the carts to place his order, and once he receives it, he watches America. ]}

You're friends with Japan-sama? Have you known him for awhile?
_{[ suddenly very curious. ]}

[bigstick]

[ america pulls up a stool next to zura at the cart he chose and orders right after, without fuss. they're both given tea and once it's poured, america takes a sip, nodding as he does and sets his cup down. ]

Hell yeah, dude. Since about uh... the 1840s? We were kind of aware each other before that but didn't meet till then. Didn't really get off to the... best start. [ lmao commodore perry why ] But y'know, things change. We're really tight now, actually. Ambassador Kennedy is really good about it, it's nice.

[bakudanma]

_{[ Katsura seems genuinely interested as America talks about Japan like that. Huh. ]}

I'd really like to meet Japan-sama sometime.
_{[ and suck up to him, kiss his ass, etc. He'll be Japan's favorite— he'll make sure of that. ]}

I'm glad you're friends with him.

[bigstick]

[ america always enjoys when people listen to him talk. it's his favorite.

but he does grin widely at katsura's response. ]

I hope you can, dude! It's a blast being friends with him. The other Nations are like, eh, but he's pretty sweet. I hope he shows up one day, there's tons of people here for him to meet.

[ you're gonna have COMPETITION, katsura. ]
