[The broadcast is short, concise, and very, very demanding.]

I need tea, if you please, and as soon as possible. Perhaps a place of, er, employment as well!

Idle hands are of no good to anyone.

[A pause. His green eyes flash with a stern look into the camera.]

[And with that the feed cuts off.]

Mm? 2012. Strangely the day I arrived here was the same month and day here. Hadn't realized it was already May come to think--! Damn, I'd hate to winter here.

Is... Japan okay back home?

Sorry, I know that's a strange question, but it's important.

Yes, he-- Er, alright, I suppose I'll take your word for it-- He's, er, had a few awful earthquakes in the last few years, but so far I believe he's still coming along just like the rest of us. Somewhat better in the economic sense--America and Greece defaulted; that is, declared themselves unable to repay their loans and debts to the rest of us--so it has us all in a bit of a sticky situation.

Industrious as ever I'll say that!

Yeah... I heard a little about 2011. I'm glad he's getting better, eh?

You knew him here, then? I-if... you don't mind my asking...

Yeah. He was my best friend. And I'm in love with him.

...

O-oh.

[Hadn't been expecting that!] I-I-- Excuse me, I shouldn't have pried--

That's all very personal. Er, I'm--sorry he's gone then. For you.

[You can probably tell Marco, why they got along. Poor England looks so embarrassed.]

Seems like all the nations are finding somebody here.

No, it's fine. It's not exactly secret. I mean I already call Hong Kong my little brother in law. And I promised to look after him and Taiwan if anything happened.

[A shrug. He misses Japan, but he can't let it stop him either.]

You should have seen it a year and a half ago.

[He knows you mean well Marco, but England is suddenly feeling over his head in awkward "third fifth wheel" feelings.]

... R-right... What... was it like a year and a half ago?

[Waves hands with an evil evil smirk.]

Crazy! And I forget all the stuff you got involved in, but it was all over the place man. [I-is he trolling? WORST PHOENIX FRIEND EVER.]

W-what?! [NO SERIOUSLY--] What--sort of things was I involved in?

Ahh... I can't tell... It was too embarrassing.

--Out with it, I say!! You can't just--say something like that and not elaborate!

No no.... I'm sure it was all very innocent I just misunderstood the context. Yes, surely that was it.

I demand to know--! You said you'd tell me things--Are you not a man of your word?

Well... I'm a pirate so...

[SO ARGUABLY; no he's not.] Eh... You'll have to ask Hong Kong. I promised him he could be the one to tell you if it ever came up. [Lies. 100% pure lies. Sorry little bro-in-law.]

... [Narrowing his eyes.] Don't throw that pirate bollocks at me! [oh he is so about to slip into lecture mode.] Suppose you're not up to backing your claims then are you?

[... /s m i r k .] Shame.

Hey, if I've got two conflicting promises going, the one that came first takes priority, eh? Sorry. [Nope, not sorry at all.]

But since you're so worried, it involves mistletoe that shocks you until you make a kiss. Turkey and Greece caught together and both chose death rather than kiss. You took a different approach I believe.

You did say you were a pirate. If you'll be making that claim to avoid keeping your word, you've no obligation to keep to any promises--

You're proving yourself to be inconsistent--!

A-and-- I really don't want to know who I kissed. That's disgusting.

[He wants to know. HE WANTS TO KNOW.]

[IN TRUTH, Marco can only barely remember. He feels bad about hazarding a guess, but fuck it. Since when does Marco realize he's over a line and pull back? The answer? Never. Well, okay, just this once, but only because he really likes England.]

Eh... I really don't remember clearly, I was kind of preoccupied. It wasn't last December anyway, it was the year before and at the time we weren't really talking. You mostly just spent a lot of time with America and Sweden, Denmark, and them. You've kind of come and gone a lot. Last summer you kept falling down ditches with America and getting stuck with him for months. It drove his boyfriend nuts. Oh and you stabbed Tatsumi once already, though that might have been my fault. [Ahahaha... Oops?] And then around October you were more with your female self.

Whatever embarrassing things, they weren't as bad as half of the other countries, but I don't think you were too lonely. Though I could be wrong.

The best times were with France of course... but as I said.... it's too embarrassing to tell.

[Honestly? All he heard was F R A N C E and it's there that he draws the line.]

I wouldn't touch that slimy stinking bastard with a fifty-foot pole!! [he gives a good and proper HMPH for emphasis.]

Good one mate, but you'll have to try harder than that to pull one on me.

[THIS FACE ENGLAND. IT WILL HAUNT YOUR DREAMS.]

I actually told you this once before. Ask Karkat what a Kismesis is.

Then you can say whatever you want, but it just makes the black burn blaze even more.

... The what--? [What on earth is he...] Ask who about a what?

Pah! [waving a dismissive hand.] Could fly an airship with less hot air than this!

[Just laughs.] I told you it was too embarrassing.
