part 333 wild ponies running free across the plain

[aphanon_meme]

Hi meme! How was your week? Mine was interesting. I just made pad thai noodles (this wasn't the interesting part) but the noodles came out too rubbery/chewy and I am disappointed. I'm also on an Izumi Yukimura kick today! Are you on any particular music kicks? (Also, man I wish you could embed videos on Dreamwidth! A gal can dream, I guess.)

Enjoy part 333!

His relationship with Gilbird: how he found him, why he decided to make him his pet, what they do together, anything like that.

Hahahaha I FEEL LIKE I might disappoint but

I always think the Gil isn't really the best person to own pets?

Like from the beginning, his relationship from animals has been "don't get attached" and he was raised to view them as either 1. food or 2. workers or 3. Cute things to pet and then move on with your day. But otherwise he doesn't really have an affinity with animals like Germany has always had. I think instead, he's probably terrible and his attention span only lasts for how long that animal is entertaining and cute. He's content to pet a stray cat and leave it to its life.

In my hc on a bad day he can get annoyed by all the pets Germany has. But YEAH Gilbird? I think since childhood birds have been attracted to Prussia, kinda like how Greece has all those damn cats. Gilbert always had a bird following him. When he was younger crows would probably follow him because y'know teutonic knights, bringer of death, bringer of a human meal. But he never noticed?? Just all background noise.

He's a million miles a minute, a bird isn't relevant to what's going on, so not worthy of his attention. I don't think Gilbird is a single bird that he keeps. If it is, Gilbert can't tell. But after his brother pointed out the bird to him, he felt really flattered that this living fluffy thing decided to pick him as a friend.

I think at first he would've kept the bird as like "TOO COOL PHOTO ACCESSORY!!" to melt hearts, but the more he spent time with the bird, the more it touched the deepest loneliness in his stupid little heart, and he started to give it a rare special attention that he's never really given anything besides himself and his little brother.

Gilbird he would tell you is his #1 friend, and not his pet! He doesn't really keep him, it's a "come and go" kinda thing! I guess for activities, I think he'd be dead set on trying to teach the bird to whistle certain old timey marching songs, but besides that it's a lot of dress up games, photo taking, and laying around rubbing his feathery belly.

No you didn't disappoint at all, I really like this headcanon! Especially the birds always following him but that he only noticed Gilbird once Germany pointed him out. That'd be just like him.
