[ The feed turns on and is faced on Spain sitting in the common room of his apartment building. He's looking rather official and important but it's all a facade so don't be fooled. Considering the short amount of time he's been here, he has already mourned being ripped from his home and come up with a buenísima idea for how to bide his time while he is here. ]

Good afternoon citizens of-- [ ...this place has a difficult name to remember... ] --Hugville! Are you tired of being tired because you didn't get a hug today? But you're also tired of seeking out a hug or befriending people enough to earn a hug? Well, I'm here to tell you not to be tired!

[ He holds up a sign that he painstakingly and lovingly made himself. ]



That's right, amigos! Isn't it cute? I will give FREE HUGS to anyone who needs one! They work every time!

[ He smiles at the camera, hoping that a couple of beautiful señoritas or cute little kids will jump into his arms! It'd be worth the free price if Spain could rescue them from low energy! After a second of seeing his stupid, smiling face, the camera turns off. ]

Nah, I'm just a spirit medium. All I do is channel the dead. I mean, I'm also the co-manager of the Law Offices, though.

[S P A R K L E.]

[tercio]

Channel the dead? Really?

Just make sure you don't commit any crimes and run from them because then you'd be a small medium at large.

[ lol. ]

[missleadingquestions]

[Maya is thoroughly amused.]

Hahaha! That was a good one! You're pretty funny, huh.

[tercio]

I'm hilarious! [ Apparently. ]

But that's my only medium joke.

[missleadingquestions]

Yeah, I don't know a lot of them either.

I knew a clown who'd like to make a lot of jokes, but he wasn't all that good at it. [That case. Well, it'd... sort-of-been fun.

[tercio]

You know a lot of interesting people. A lawyer, a clown and lots of ghosts...?

[ He really has no idea where this conversation is going but she's adorable so he just wants to see her smile and laugh and do other cute things. ]

[missleadingquestions]

Well, we get to meet lots of people when we're helping with cases. We met a magician and a few actors and a master thief, too!

...Well, he wasn't exactly a master thief, but you get what I mean.

[tercio]

[ No, he really doesn't get what you mean... ]

Then what was he...?

Maybe I should be a lawyer!

[missleadingquestions]

Lawyers kind of take the fall a lot, though. Pretty much no one's nice to Nick, except if they need his help.

[AND EVEN THEN. Not that she's super nice to him at all.]

...He was kind of a master cry baby, but he was still pretty brave. He saved his wife from robbers once.

[tercio]

[ This causes him to laugh out loud. ]

I know way too many crybabies! [ Himself included but he doesn't think that way. ] You're not a crybaby, are you?

[missleadingquestions]

Hey-- no way! I always keep going, no matter what!

[tercio]

No matter what? I bet your crying face wouldn't be that bad!

[missleadingquestions]

If I cry, I can't be having fun, you know! It's better to just stay positive.

Sorry I'm so slow...I should have SLOWATUSED.

[tercio]

Not that I'm saying you should cry because your smiling face is very cute! However, sometimes don't you need to? It can be hard to be positive all the time.

It's all good! I'll backtag to eternity.

[missleadingquestions]

Maybe, but I can't cry for long!

I want to have fun! And I have to keep smiling for Pearly and Nick, or they'll get sad too.

...Even if they aren't here right now.

I'M GLAD. (tears)

[tercio]

Well, you can save all your smiles for them for when you see them again!

Though I get sad when I think of my friends who aren't here...and the...friends...who are here...

[ Germany...England...Switzerland...America is here TWICE too!! Why his life?

Tear. ]

also because yes hetalias

[missleadingquestions]

Are your friends here really that bad?

No Hetalias to him.

[tercio]

I wouldn't exactly call most of them friends, Maya. More like neighbors who you have to hang out with sometimes.

[ A small laugh just to fill space. ]

[missleadingquestions]

Oh-- yeah, I have a few friends like that...

[She's not sure she's thought about Franziska Von Karma so many times in one conversation before.]

But at least they're here for you, right?

[tercio]

They're mostly all right now!

[ Except for a few lingering bits of bad blood... ]

But I'd probably be better off finding new friends. Like you, huh?

[missleadingquestions]

Of course!! You can't ever have too many friends, right?

And it looks like we'll need a lot of friends here.

1/2

[tercio]

Yes! Find friends or die!!

[tercio]

...I'll be on the lookout for you, by the way.

[missleadingquestions]

It's kind of an emergency when you put it that way...!

[She settles quickly, though.]

Huh? What do you mean?

[tercio]

We've only just met but I'll be on the lookout to make sure you don't die!

Even if it means all the touching.
