part 340 tender lumplings everywhere

[aphanon_meme]

The best season is coming, meme! Halloween season! I mean... fall! Yeah, fall. I love the fall. I actually like every season in its own way, but I think fall has the best atmosphere. Crunching leaves and pumpkins and excuses to decorate the outside of your house with fake spider webs and zombie hands. Also it means... Hetalia Halloween fanart! (Maybe even... something from Himaruya? Maybe? Bueller? No?)

Enjoy part 340!

[At that, Germany lets go entirely with an angry huff]

It's useless, the knot won't budge. Did the Anonymous glue it together?!

[iceandheather]

[Germany might have let go, but now Norway latches onto his sleeve. He isn't about to allow himself to get disoriented when he can't see.]

Might've. But wouldn't put it past 'em to use meme-magic, neither. Can't trust 'em, ya' ken?

[1amkeit]

[If Germany had been new to the Meme, he would've objected calling it "meme-magic", but with everything that he's seen... He's not sure how they do the things the do, but magic seems like an apt description until he knows more about it]

[Germany nods, before realizing Norway won't be able to tell]

That's right.

[Considering Norway's situation, Germany doesn't shake his hand off. He keeps that arm still, raising his other arm to run his fingertips along the edges of the blindfold, looking for an opening. His next idea is to try and slip his fingers underneath the fabric so he can simply tug it off]

[iceandheather]

[Parts his lips to protest, but then he realizes what Germany's trying to do, and doesn't.]

[It's downright snug, though, and isn't about to come off that easily, especially not since--]

[Clears his throat and mutters]

Go easy, will ya'. Downright big hands you've got, there.

[1amkeit]

I'm trying to help you!

[He can't find any room for his thick fingers, though. Instead, Germany grabs the knot and starts tugging, trying to pull it up. Still, it doesn't seem to budge]

If this doesn't work either, I'll have to cut it off...

[iceandheather]

[Grabs at Germany's wrist, digging his nails in]

If ya' even think of puttin' scissors near my head, I'll shove 'em up your ass. Clear?

[1amkeit]

[Clenches and freezes at that comment. Germany's rather used to hearing ungrateful things, but that doesn't mean he'll take it in stride. He pulls his arms away and folds them across his chest]

It's the only reasonable option you have left!

[iceandheather]

No, it ain't.

[Reaches out to touch him again, just-- just putting his hands on him, setting them on Germany's shoulders.]

I can take care've this business. But first I need you t'get me out've the middle of the meme. Can't concentrate this way.

[He talks more gently now - if only because he realizes that he probably won't get what he needs any other way.]

Will you do that for me?

[1amkeit]

[Is Norway seriously still considering that magic trick of his? Though he does seem assured of himself...]

[The sudden politeness doesn't impress Germany. He assumes Norway's simply being condescending. At the same time, it does beat hearing threats about what Norway's going to do to his ass, at least]

[He steps up to Norway's side, resting his hand over the nape of Norway's neck, curling his thumb and fingers around the sides so he has a loose hold on it. It's not a firm grip as he's not going to direct Norway like a puppet, but it's safer like this. In case of sudden, oncoming danger, he can easily steer Norway to safety]

Be careful and follow me.

[iceandheather]

[Tenses up a little. He isn't thrilled with this; being directed like that, and with someone's hand so close to his hair-]

[But if he objects, that'll just make the entire situation more annoying. So he goes along with Germany's direction - though he isn't thrilled.]

Be quick about it, will you.

[1amkeit]

[Though the reaction is too little for Germany to notice a change, he does realize after some time that Norway's tense. It doesn't surprise him. He wouldn't like being touched like that either, especially not if he were blindfolded]

[Still, he can't help but be annoyed by Norway telling him to hurry up. As if he'd dawdle when it comes to things like this]

I always am!

[With that, he steers them to a quiet corner of the Meme, just to their right]

[iceandheather]

Are you, now.

[Mutters it - maybe not loud enough to be heard, quite - but goes along with this. The surroundings are quieter now, he can tell. That's better.]

[Looks up at him when they stop. Even if it's just the two of them now, he feels far more vulnerable than he'd care to be in public.]

Is it clear now, then?

[1/3]

[1amkeit]

[Though he didn't hear exactly what Norway said, he didn't like the sound of it]

What was that?

[2/3]

[1amkeit]

Ah, wait here.

[Goes to check the nearby threads to make sure the general area is clear. All he finds is a lone Eyes.gif lurking in one of the corners, though. It takes some time, but he eventually gets it to leave. Just to be safe]

[1amkeit]

[He sighs, then quickly returns to Norway]

It's clear. We're the only ones here.

Now explain how you're going to get that blindfold off!

[iceandheather]

[While Germany had been occupied, he'd already set to it - whispering a spell, placing it, then putting his hands in front of him and working as if he were holding the knot and seeing it (though he isn't, and can't), working it loose.]

[When Germany comes back, he's set it enough that it doesn't distract him.]

Already told you, didn't I? Magic.

['Looks' over at him, still working at the invisible knot in front of him while the one holding the blindfold over his eyes slowly begins to loosen.]

[1amkeit]

That doesn't make any sense! Explain it to me using scientific terms!

[With the way Norway's working his hands, he's almost starting to think he's in a candid camera show, getting pranked]

[iceandheather]

Makes plenty of sense.

[Gives him a Look, or at least, he would if he could look at him, then turns back to the 'knot', tugging a bit of the invisible mass loose.]

Just 'cause you don't know about summat don't mean 's hogwash. Understand?

[1amkeit]

No, but magic is something that belongs in fairy tales, and real life isn't a fairy tale!

[iceandheather]

[Frowns]

[It looks like Norway isn't the only one who can't see what's in front of his face.]

I ought t'turn you into summat.

[Tugs another thread loose]

A dog, mayhaps. Nay - a puppy.

[1amkeit]

[As weird as the things he's seen on the Meme are, transforming someone into a dog is really stretching the limit]

[Crosses his arms in front of his chest again, clearly unimpressed. He's not even going to lecture Norway on the dangers of something that can't happen]

That's not scientifically possible.

[iceandheather]

[Ignores him, tugging at the final bit - ah, there it is.]

[The blindfold comes loose, and Norway slips it off.]

[Turns to Germany, raising an eyebrow as he neatly folds up the fabric]

Didn't say anything about science. Did I.

[1amkeit]

[Germany takes a step closer as Norway slips it off, eager to inspect the blindfold]

What did you do to it?

...It's not possible. At all!

[iceandheather]

You saw what I did.

[Offers it, though Germany won't get any answers from there.]

Half've it is knowin' it ain't possible, 'n then doin' it anyway. Make sense?

[1amkeit]

You didn't do anything to it!

[He takes the offered blindfold, unfolding it and inspecting it thoroughly. Especially the ends. But those next words have him glancing back at Norway]

Don't be ridiculous.

[This really is a prank, isn't it?]
