part 370 fresh flowers on a side table in the morning

[aphanon_meme]

Um, 2020 was a year that happened. 2021 is a new year that will happen! With flowers! And side tables! And mornings! And I didn't want to make some sort of 20s-themed name because look what happened in 2020, look what happened.

Enjoy part 370!

omg Japan don't die on me

[veeee]

[Well, lucky for Japan he tries to imitate what he does up to the breaking chopsticks part!]

Veee!?! J-Japan?!

[Oh no, was he rude?! Did he made Japan angry with his question?!]

I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm not asking you again!! So please don't get mad!!

[He says while holding onto Japan's hand now! Nooo Japan don't murder him with your ninja chopsticks technique!]

1/? o/

[jipanghost]

[ The feeling of Italy-kun's hand grabbing at & holding Kiku's own ] ---


( ...Well ) [ Let's just say it does help Kiku snap back to attention slightly ] ---

2/?

[jipanghost]

[ Fortunately for Italy-kun, Kiku's not exactly moving said hand right now?? ]


( ??? ) ( Kiku might literally be "???" right now )


[ ... Kiku's not mad? Italy-kun thinks Kiku's mad at him?? Huh --- ]

( Cue the headtilt ) ----

3/?

[jipangu]

... I'm not mad ?


( ...Typically, might not be this blunt, but )


Merely, Italy-kun may be disappointed by the answer...

4/?

[jipanghost]

( ...And then quickly realizes Italy-kun copied the movement with the chopsticks.... )



[ ... This isn't good. Kiku cannot become this lost in thoughts! ]


( Might be partly late for that, but )

5/?

[jipangu]

-- I'm not mad!

[ Sitting straight, looking up at Italy after having stared down at Italy-kun's hand against own!!-- ]

-- If Italy-kun would like to -- converse with me, it is

( Insistent!!? ) All right!

6/6

[jipanghost]

[ As if to emphasize this, Kiku's hand seems totally relaxed against Italy-kun's own! ]

( And Kiku actually manages to look in Italy-kun's direction for a bit longer than typical! )

[ ... Please ignore the slight staring to the side of Italy-kun's face ]
( Italy-kun won't notice the stare is a bit "off" right??? right--- )


[ I-Is this it?!? Is this how Kiku should be "communicating" 'informally' with 'Friends'??!!? ]

( Italy-kun thinks Kiku is mad?? T-That would be absolutely uncalled for, Kiku must not leave such an impression!.... )
[ Italy-kun thinks Kiku is mad . . . ]

Also forgot to say but take the time you need with your other fandom, mun!!

[veeee]

[As Japan sits straight so does Italy! Except he is now shaking and crying he's getting Germany vibes from Japan as well]

I will behave, sir!!

[He salutes, grabbing his (now broken) chopsticks and tries to grab a bite of sushi while sadly veeeee-ing]

[Is he doing it right, Japan???]

1/? (It seems we have avoided a potential crisis in said fandom for now, so...!!)

[jipanghost]

[ Obviously, the LAST thing Kiku wants is to come across as scary! That's absolutely unbecoming!! ] -----
( As well, Kiku is the host, so!--- )


( ... ) [ Italy-kun (still?) seems a little .... distressed?.... ]


( Kiku's ... secretly genuinely pleased Italy-kun made an Attempt TM at 'respectfulness' but... ]

2/?

[jipangu]

There is no need to refer to me as "sir", Italy-kun...


A-Ahh, if you need new chopsticks....


[ seems to be about to stand up to quickly retrieve a new pair for Italy-kun, if necessary ] ---

3/?

[jipanghost]

( ... ) ( ... ) [ For some reason Kiku still feels unsettled ]


( Did Kiku really handle this all wrong.... )
[ Seeing a seemingly 'dejected' Italy-kun is affecting Kiku ... quite a bit ]


( Tries to think of a way to .. save?? ... the conversation...?!? )

4/4

[jipangu]

[ While Kiku's back is just-slightly turned,
if Italy-kun wants to swipe a piece of sushi normally, now's the chance!! ]


...I -- I hope the food will be adequate... ?? ?

[ Kiku wants Italy-kun to try it!!.... ]

Good to know!!

[veeee]

[Italy lifts up his gaze and looks from the chopsticks to Japan]

Oh, we're supposed to break another pair?

[Sounds wasteful but when Japan stands up, Italy does the same]

Vee!! Don't worry! I can eat your food just fine!! Really!!!

[He tries to make an attempt to eating while standing up and ends up stabbing the sushi, putting four in a single chopstick and eating them all at once! That should make Japan not feel bad, right?!]

Javan's googin's vewy defifious!!! Javan's goffa fe a foof waif!!!

[Translation: Japan's cooking is very delicious! Japan's gonna be a good wife!]

[He says while spitting all the food and giving a a thumbs up! He loves you, Japan!]

1/? ashsdhjdhsahdshadsdsajddjjkl iTALY

[jipanghost]

[ Kiku was about to respond about "breaking another pair" -- no, it's not necessary--!!.... ]

( but then Italy-kun begins suddenly rambling like That TM out of nowhere and )


( Oh ) [ W-Wait, Italy-kun, dON'T Please be careful!! ] -----

2/?

[jipanghost]

[ OK, Kiku {Kind Of} Caught The First Part. "Ve{ry delicious}"....?? ]

( Kiku will graciously accept that compliment at this point )
[ It does help with feeling a little better about
Not totally wrecking the situation, but ]

( Italy-kun, actually, you're allowed to be honest!.... )


[ The second part TM catches Kiku a bit more off-guard ]


( Japan's .... a ... ?? ??? ?? ? ? Cannot Decode TM )

3/?

[jipanghost]

[ "Foo"... "Fu"... "Fun"? Japan's a fun ... huh ?? ? ]


( regardless Kiku will recognize it is clearly a compliment )


[ right now though Kiku is a little more Concerned about ]

4/?

[jipanghost]

[ Fortunately, Kiku knows what to do when Italy-kun gets like this! ] ---

( dO YOU??? DO YOU ) ----


[ and Kiku will ] ----

5/?

[jipangu]

[ Whip back around, now with clean, large napkins in hand!!! ] ---

W-What a coincidence, as it turned out, I found spare napkins in my sleeves!! ---

( Kiku will quickly place them around the table
probably faster than Italy can blink/retort and )

I-If chopsticks are not necessary, then it is fine!--
( Kiku totally does not have them accessible either if still needed, Anyway )


I am honored if Italy-kun is enjoying the meal,
but perhaps we may sit back down then!....

6/?

[jipangu]

[ ... and Kiku finally belatedly sees the thumbs-up ]


( ... OK That Does Kind Of rEALLY Gives Kiku's Heart A Pang )
[ I-Is it a good one ]

( Is ' Happiness ' supposed to hurt feel like that ?? ? ? )

I-Italy-kun...

7/7

[jipangu]

[ aaaand Kiku will try and ]

[ move ... a little... just a little..... Closer to Italy-kun aND ]

( Takes Italy-kun's free hand covering the thumbs-up carefully ) [ Kiku's trying to NOT scare Italy.... ]
[ Italy may now feel Kiku's hand carefully attempting slipping into his own ]


Let us sit back down now!.... ( Insisting!!! )
[ Kiku still can't Stare TM directly Into the Eyes but ]

B-Because, I'd like it Very much if Italy-kun and I could speak honestly....

Buhyoos forever @Kiku 1/2

[veeee]

[He may be looking like a chimpmunk right now and all he sees is Japan slowly (but surely!!) relaxing]

[And he tries to chew very slowly while standing up]

[And suddenly Japan has his hands clasped on Italy's]

[Wait what's going on?]

[Quietly sits with Japan]

2/2

[veeee]

[And suddenly he lets himself be embraced by this comfortable atmosphere as flowers bloom and suddenly the room feels very hot or is it just him??]

O'ay...

[He says and swallows the sushi in one go, clasping Japan's hands on his own and he sits closer to Japan]

[Wow this must be an ancient costume from Japan, right? RIGHT?]

1/?

[jipanghost]

[ K-Kiku is just trying their best to be a good host ( and a ) ( good ) ( 'Friend' ) ]

( ... At least, that's what Kiku's subconscious seems to be saying, but )


[ Kiku's (now that Kiku has seen it) internally a little worried about Italy-kun seeming having eaten quite a chunk of?!? the sushi too, and ]
( W-Wait, Italy-kun seems to be relaxing too, does that mean Kiku did the right things after al ---- )


( O-Ooh, Italy-kun has moved seats closer ?? ? ? ? To ??? Kiku? Too.... )

2/?

[jipanghost]

[ Belatedly realizing Italy-kun's hands are now clasping Kiku's own too ]


( ... ... ... oh )



[ Mind frozen for a good few loooong seconds as Kiku stares in slight bewilderment ]

3/?

[jipanghost]

[ r-regardless, Italy-kun appears to have calmed down significantly, and so!!.... ]


( Will now take this opportunity to present one of the napkins, holding it out lightly towards Italy's face?!? )
