[The feed clicks on to Lithuania, holding a bouquet of yellow flowers in his lap, careful to not damage them.]

Whoever sent those to me, thank you.

[He gently caresses the flowers with one hand looking down at them.]

They are really wonderful.

Wow, those are really pretty, Lithuania!

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

[Totally not saying a word~]

[PS, while the flowers are anonymous, he left some pretty not-anonymous, lovingly made semi-sweet chocolates. In a bright pink box with white ribbon, and a little note that says "Thanks for being a wicked awesome best friend!"]

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

They are my favorite flowers, and this ones smell really well, as if they were directly from the field. I really wonder who sent them... But it's nice either way.

[idkmybfftony.livejournal.com]

Hehe, well, at least you enjoy them, right! And I guess it shows that someone was thinking about you enough to, which is pretty important! I know that Elaine girl was delivering flowers, she sent some out for me, too.

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

[And after he has put the flowers into a vase and turns to place it very carefully on the table, he notices the chocolate box on the other side of the table. He picks it up and smiles when he finds the note, turning towards Poland.]

Thank you.

[Also ohshi- he should have gotten Poland something, too.]

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

Yes, she delivered them, but she wouldn't tell me whom it was from. It's really nice of her to do that... Though I'm still curious.

[Very gently brushing his fingertips over the flowers.]

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

[Smiles back]

You're totally welcome!

[He didn't really expect Liet to get him anything, and is just glad to see him smile after all the stress the letters put him through. Not that he'd protest if Liet wanted to get him nice things, though...

[pakisunotpaku.livejournal.com]

Those are so pretty! What kind of flower are they?

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

[He walks over to Poland and hugs him.]

And I'm really happy to be your best friend, too.

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

They are called rue. Much more common in my southern territories than in my homeland, but they are still my favorite flowers.

Do you have them in your place?

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

[Blushes, laughing a bit.]

Well, like, duh! I mean, I'm superfab, so of course you are~

[....Yeah, he's acting like that entirely to hide how shy and nervous that makes him feel.]

[pakisunotpaku.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes! Me and some of my neighbors use it in our food.

[ooc: I think. They do in the Middle East, but Pakistan is more technically South Asia so...idk. If I'm wrong then idek we can say she imports it. orz]

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

Could I try some of that food one day? I've never eaten anything from your place before.

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

[He laughs and lets go of the other nation, sitting down next to him and opening the box.]

Of course you are. It's one of the things that I like about you.

[pakisunotpaku.livejournal.com]

Of course! I'll make you haleem and naan! Or um, I could make you curry if you'd like that better. Of kebabs or palao...or biryani.... [She trails off in thought. She wants to make whatever he would like best so that he'll be impressed with her house's food.]

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

[Still smiling slightly, Poland watches Liet open the box.]

I totally always like hearing about those!

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

I don't know any of those names... You could just make your favorite food?

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

[Looks up at Poland]

You're strong and friendly and loyal and... [There's more but he isn't sure about it.] ...thoughtful. [Sometimes.]

[pakisunotpaku.livejournal.com]

Alright! It's too bad you weren't here at Eid. I made a lot of different things then.

What are your favorite foods from your house?

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

[Blushes, grabbing a pillow and sort of halfway hiding his face behind it. Shy mode: Activate!]

...You're like, making at least one of those up, Liet...

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

[Imagine a list here of stuff because I honestly have no idea what they had in his time. Almost all the Lithuanian food that I know is made with something that they didn't have back then.] And bread. It's very basic, but you can take it with you easily and put everything on it.

What is Eid?

[pakisunotpaku.livejournal.com]

Yes! Naan is like that, too. It's a kind of bread.

Eid al-Adha is the day when we celebrate the willingness of Ibrahim to sacrifice his son in an act of obedience to Allah. Traditionally, we sacrifice a sheep and share out the meat. Since we didn't have any needy or relatives to portion it out to here, I cooked it and shared it with anyone who wanted some.

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

I don't. [He pokes the pillow.] Why should I lie to you?

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

I'd like to try Naan, then.

That sounds a lot like the story about Ishaak and Abram that Poland told me. But I've never heard about a celebration like that.

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

[He hides his face a little more; what can be seen of it is pink.]

'Cause you're like, being nice?
