First Bullet | Video | Stop hermitting!

[ The feed starts with a rather disgruntled looking Swiss, and you could see he is -rather proudly- showing off a watch on his wrist. He looked proud, and... it felt like a good enough accomplishment to show everyone else, and it might have helped him sort things out in his mind. It didn't seem like he was getting out of here anytime soon, so he might as well make use of his time here, right? ]

I could make another one of these if you payed enough for it? [ Making use of his time obviously meant catching up on lost money. With that out of his system, he put down his hand, voice becoming more serious. ]

On another note- I would appreciate it if all of my fellow nations were to come to my apartment, that being 2-04 in Building 2 at 9 am tomorrow? I will have to apologize to my neighbors for not informing you sooner but this is urgent. I want to... [ A pause. ] Discuss somethings with you all.

Ich wünsch Ihne e schöne Daag. [ With that, the feed clicks off. ]

(That being "Have a nice day" in Swiss German. <3)

Wait you're in building 2? Me too! Dude I almost live above you- I'm in 3-05 and Canada's over in 3-06! Cool!

You can count me in- I'll be there! I'll bug Canada to come too if he doesn't RSVP or something himself. So... What is this urgent topic or is it some sort of secret I have to wait until tomorrow to find out?

[ Ohhhh boy. That explains how noisy this building was. ]

I'll have it perfectly sorted tomorrow, be patient, America.

[ He took a moment before continuing, taking a deep breath. ]

I didn't know Canada was here?

Okay... [Yes that's disappointment in his voice. Being patient isn't his forte after all.]

Yeah Canada is here. He'll be happy you remember who he is. It's funny we ended up as neighbors living here- like we are back home. Not that we individually live this close to each other at home but you know. Neighbors.

[Which reminded him; time to try being a little casual too.]

So Vash, are you doing okay? Getting in enough physical contact to stay healthy?

A few handshakes were fine for me.

[ He nodded, taking a glance back at him. ]

You?

Good for you Dude, can't have one of my pals getting sick on me!

[Sure you won't say you're a friend yet but America is still going to call you pal- especially now that you have that "casual alliance" thing going.]

I've made several friends so I have it pretty easy. Plus I can always rely on Canada to help me out. Worse comes to worse we sit side by side while we talk- makes it real easy.

Can't help wondering how England is doing. That guy is too stubborn for his own good you know? I would worry for Germany's sake too, but Italy's here so he's pretty much safe.

[ Yep. He's scowling. Why must he deal with this? ]

You were close to Canada at one point, I'm sure he might let you help.

[Just going to ignore that look and continue with the friendly talk.]

Of course! [Isn't it obvious Canada is on his side?] Canada and I are like... two sides of the North American coin if you don't count... Mexico and everyone else... Um... [Somewhere Mexico was shaking a fist and cursing at him again.] I mean we're super good allies- like best friends- so naturally we're looking out for each other. I'm happy he's here.

Aaaaand happy that my fellow countries are here fighting the good fight even if it's a battle in hugs! -Pal! [Yes Vash, that includes you.]

I see. That's good to know.

[ He shrugged, awkwardly scratching the back of his neck. ]

What have you been up to, as of late?

Well other than making sure everyone stays healthy and working to obtain information from the locals about our situation here, I have spent some time exploring the local cuisine.

_{[In other words he's been eating.]}

I've also watched a few movies from this world. Some of them remind me of home, and others not so much. At least not Hollywood style movies. The best kind.

[woah that's a dialect she hasn't... heard in a while. Asuka can only reply in regular German.]

Ein herzliches Dankeschön. ["My heartfelt thanks."]

Watchmaker? What else can you build?

[ He raised a brow at that, nodding politely. He wasn't expecting at Germans here. ]

Almost everything at perfect quality. As long as I have what I need. [ He gives her a small smile, relaxing into his seat. ]

What do you want?

Just trying to get an idea of other people's skills, really.

How would you feel about helping rope together a few portable generators? We've had power outages in the past. I figure if we can salvage a few cars or trucks we can rip the engines out and get a few emergency fuel powered ones going.

Kinda larger scale than a watch, but I've done some mechanics work myself. I'm Asuka Langley Shikinami.

Edited 2013-08-21 13:10 (UTC)

I could help with this. It would be good to work on something else now that I'm done with this.

[ The name didn't ring German to him, but he let it slide for now. This seemed promising enough. ]

I'm Switzerland, or if you'd rather, Vash Zwingli.

[Asuka's heritage is a complicated thing...

It takes her a moment to recognise the name before she can realise what's happening here]

Schönen Dank.

Ah, another nation? We seemed to attracting a lot of you.

[ He nodded, seems like they have quite the reputation here. ]

Apparently so.

[at least Germany hasn't gone shirtless yet.]

...You aren't needed back where you're from or anything are you?

I am. Very much so. I can only imagine what's happening without me.

[ Priorities. ]

9:00 in the morning?? How about a more doable time like 11:00? I'm sure most others will appreciate that too.

It would be best to not annoy our neighbors at a later time.

[ The best. ]

...there sure are a lot of you 'nations' here, aren't there?

There are quite a bit of us.

[ He lips were pulled back into a slight frown, this individual wasn't striking him as the politest. ]

Safety in numbers, am I not right?

It's interesting- beings like you aren't exactly what you'd call 'commonplace', are you?

[Hey, she isn't being rude- she's just being blunt for now.]

You've got a point. Guess it's lucky for all of you that you've got backup, isn't it?

[ He nodded, backup? He wouldn't say that, but they are people he knows here, not that he'll depend on any of them. ]

That's true. [ A pause. ] And you are...?

Better than being on your own, at least.

[Because it's not like she relies on the guys from home, but it's nice to have them around, at least.]

I'm Severa, and you?

I guess it is.

[ He nodded, might as well be polite. ]

I'm Switzerland, it's good to meet you?

Likewise. I take it you're... [She wants to say 'friends', but that might be presumptuous.] Acquaintances with America and Canada, then?

Yes, that's true.

[ He's grateful she didn't. ]

[now he is feeling very unaccomplished. While he's found a bookstore and has discovered non-human beings... he does not have anything to show for his efforts]

How long did it take? [in German, because there is no reason to use English when your language is the same... even if there are differences in dialect that make him question that]

What would you like to discuss tomorrow? [of course, he'll be there]

[ He appreciated that he responded in German, though. ]

A mouth and a few days.

[ He paused, nodding slightly. ]

A plan. We need to understand what we should do here.

You likely have many orders already. [Switzerland made beautiful watches]

I have been considering many things since arriving. These people are facing an energy crisis, I should survey the locals to find out how they feel about alternate energy sources.

[ He sighed, he was slightly disappointed that he didn't, but there is hope? ] Not yet.

You think we could possibly fix something up together?

Then I will place an order for one, if it is not a bother. [because he could use a watch]

All of us working together should be capable of forming some sort of clean source of energy. [he left unsaid the problems of getting the others to work together]

It's fine... How will you be paying?

I'm sure we could. Now we just need to find the things we need... [ They will have to. Or else. ]

It will have to be installments. But cash seems to be the proper form of payment.

America mentioned that they do have some form of infrastructure here.

[you know, he totally forgot Switzerland was here. oops]

I have been collecting data since I've been here. [because England has made himself the leader! don't go trying to horn in on his parade] I'll bring my notes. Perhaps we can find a way to get home.

Edited 2013-08-23 02:30 (UTC)

[ It's fine, he totally did too. ]

As to be expected. [ But what if he already had? Maybe they could come to some kind of agreement. ] I'll appreciate it. I hope that we can... I'm sure things have hectic without us. [ He's mostly worried about his sister, when he says that. ]

[and England is worried about... well, that's not important!]

How have you been doing here?

Fairly well, I haven't found a way out yet, so that isn't pleasant.

[ Who knows how long it would take him to accept the fact that he's stuck here...? ]

[don't worry, England's not accepting it either]

I will find a way out for us, no matter what. Never fear.

[ And he could see where America gets his arrogance from, but he shrugged it off. ]

Be sure to come, alright?

Of course! [huffs]
