[ Hello, Discedians. It's been far too long since we had Drawing Adventures with Hong Kong, hasn't it? Since we're overdue for more, here we go. This time, it's a special occasion!

Okay, it's a little past due, but Hong Kong had a few other things on his mind when this was relevant. So now you get to go on a lovely adventure with him.

And… if you're a young'n, you might want to look away. Pretend this is a picture of bunnies and butterflies frolicking through a field of pretty flowers!

What it actually is, is some slightly questionable artwork of… England.

Yeah, Hong Kong is that shameless. He already got Japan, so his not-dad is apparently next on The List.

The first of these is a lovely and mostly subtle image of England with Portugal. Well, you'd only know that if you know Portugal, because most of the features are obscured, except for one or two key ones. C'mon, there's so much… UST.

No, there's no UST like the next drawing. The two kings of UST, no matter what France says about America. This is the best one, because it has the most attention to detail (and is probably the most explicit, since France would surely like that). Following that is one of England with Spain, though this one is again a little sketchy. Hong Kong doesn't really hang out with Spain a lot.

Or ever, really.

There's a definite pause here, like he's trying to decide what next. Oh, how about lady France? She was pretty cool. He considers lady England, but first, that's almost too much, and second, she'd probably find a way to kill him dead. Sorry dad, he's way more afraid of her. :'| ]

happy birthday. any other requests?

[ Isn't he just. So beautifully cryptic. ]

It's not exactly a light and fluffy thing, eh?

Speaking of light and fluffy though, have you seen the new baby birds hatching for Spring?

[The best segue.]

[bauhinia]

[ Very best segue. ]

I haven't seen many, but Panda said something about that. He wanders around a lot looking for food.

[fierybluebird]

They're really cute. There's a few nests around the rooftops and trees. I'm hoping the new plants will give them more food, eh?

[bauhinia]

Oh yeah, that'd be good. [ He smiles a little. ] Spring's good.

[fierybluebird]

My favorite season. Well to a point.

[bauhinia]

That point being?

[fierybluebird]

It's a bird thing.

[bauhinia]

Oh, right. I gotcha. [ His expression takes a sort of 'now I get it' look. The kind that makes you think 'no, they didn't really get it, did they?' ]

[fierybluebird]

[Quiet chuckle. Whether Hong Kong really gets it or not, that was good enough for Marco.] Aye, sometimes it can be a nuisance, but Spring is still generally nice, eh?

[bauhinia]

[ He tries! ] Yeah, that I get. It's a lot less humid here, so that's pretty cool. No pun intended.

[fierybluebird]

You're from warmer climes?

Though if I remember right, you do like ice cubes, eh? [Always a troll.]

[bauhinia]

[ Wow, Marco, wow. Please ignore how he's all red-faced now. ]

Yeah, I mean, it's warmer. At home, I mean.

Yeah. [ Oh yeah, he's so cool. ]

[fierybluebird]

Good thing you don't mind the cold then.

[TROLL FACE.]

[bauhinia]

Uh, right. [ He nods like his head's going to fall off. ]

Cold, yeah. I love the cold.

[fierybluebird]

[Just hides a laugh.]

Missing winter already?

[bauhinia]

Man, aren't I always? [ Wait, that also came out wrong. ]

[fierybluebird]

[SUCH a sly grin, but aww that's kind of sad too.]

Maybe you'll find it comes again before you know it.

[bauhinia]

[ Hong Kong is provoking conflicting emotions in people! Quick, run for the hillllls. ]

I kinda hope so. I mean, not that I wanna make anyone miserable or anything.

[fierybluebird]

Winter's not so bad. Though it's a lot easier for me to lose track and practically hibernate, eh.

[bauhinia]

I wish I could do that sometimes.

[fierybluebird]

It's pretty boring actually.

[bauhinia]

Yeah? I kinda guessed. I mean, at least a little.

[fierybluebird]

Besides, I thought you liked Winter. Then you'd miss out on it.

[Trolololol.]

[bauhinia]

But I can't see Winter too much anymore. I mean, not at my place. Or here, I guess. Anyway, I guess if I slept or something, I wouldn't miss hi- it... so much.

[fierybluebird]

I guess it's pretty hard for countries to take vacations and head elsewhere, eh?
