[There's a young man wandering through the mansion, looking a bit lonely but very calm otherwise. His still brunet hair is cut short and he's wearing a scarf as well as modern clothing; clearly this means that nobody will recognize him. All in all, he looks a lot like Yon-sama only younger.

Also this is too soon to be back from the death you say? Of course it is, but that's because he wasn't dead. He just woke up a long time after everyone left, and had a perfect, complete amnesia. Complete with not remembering his own name or any other person that he has ever met, back home or in the mansion. Of course this will only last the duration of the event, after that he will "just" have a major concussion left. Which isn't there yet. You wouldn't believe that he's been run over by a car just half a day ago.]

Could someone show me where the kitchen is?

I like, thought I didn't have a chance. That he'd never want someone like me. He was my best friend, and... and when he started dating someone else, I realized he'd never love me like I've always loved him...

But I'm not even sure about that anymore. I think... I think he thought my fiance was taking his place in my life, and I didn't need him anymore, and maybe that was why he was so upset the last time... The last time I saw him before the accident...

Oh, Liet! If I'd only known that we wouldn't meet again, I would have said something, but I was so afraid of getting my heart broken... Now I have to live the rest of my life without him!

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

Why wouldn't he have wanted someone like you? You seem to be a wonderful and nice girl to me.

[And then everything else sinks in and you get an overly dramatic, comically so, reaction: Eyes going wide, hands clasping over his mouth.]

What...what happened?

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

Well, we've like... been "just friends" for so long, and...

[Tears spill down his cheeks, glimmering.]

After he saw me with my fiance, he left in a hurry... He was back in the mansion when a strange machine appeared out of nowhere with Muscovy controlling it and ran into him! It was on the network, so everyone saw...

He said... He said I didn't need him anymore, and he died. I wasn't even there for him... I can never forgive Muscovy for this!

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

You think that he was in love with you as well?

[Okay let's try to give the woobie a hug.]

...You should try to forgive him. I'm sure that he didn't mean to hurt your friend, and you won't find your peace if you can't fogive him.

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

I... I totally don't know. Maybe it's like, just wishful thinking... But he's gone, either way! It doesn't matter how he felt, because I'll never know for sure, and we can never be together!

[Hugs! Yay! ...Well, not "Yay!", exactly, but he does appreciate it, and leans into the hug, trembling with emotion.]

There isn't any peace for me, anyway. Not with him gone. And I know... I know Muscovy hated us! He was always blaming us for things, and now he's killed Liet...!

[CRAAAAAAAAAAAI :<]

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

Have you talked to that Muskovy person? I'm sure it would all become much clearer if you could clear that up.

[Softly rocking the blond forth and back, rubbing small circles on his back.]

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

[Man, that really does feel familiar...]

He'd like, just lie to try and cover his tracks... That bastard. I was totally just gonna ignore all the awful stuff he said about us, but he's gone much too far... [Sad little whimper] Liet...

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

You want to avenge your friend?

[Trying to come up with a way to keep this person from doing something stupid.]

..Do you think that he would have wanted that?

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

Vengeance totally won't bring him back, but... I can like, at least have justice for him. I can't let Muscovy get away with killing an innocent nation and taking him away forever...

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

[Letting go a bit to look at the other's face, confusedly.]

A nation?

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Like, all three of us are.

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

But...

...that's impossible. How can a person be a nation?

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

We just are. We're like, the soul of a nation given form. We live as long as our people do, and no one's quite sure if our lives reflect history or the other way around, but that's... just kinda how it is. How it's always been. I've totally never really thought too much about it--I mean, it's just how we were born. Created. Arose. Whatever.

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

Isn't it painful to - I mean... do you have an own identity?

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

Sure. I'm like, the Kingdom of Poland.

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

But you said that you and all those people living there felt the same...

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

Yeah? I mean... they're me and I'm them and whatever. But it's not like I'm any one of them in particular. I can't be exactly like millions of people. So I'm me, but... okay, gawd. You're like, making me have to think WAY too hard about this...

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

[The young man laughs softly and lets go of the nation.]

You don't like thinking about it?

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

It's totally confusing. And it just is, anyway, no matter what I think about it, so like, whatever, right?

...Are you hungry? I'm kinda hungry.

[From crying all day.]

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

I guess so... You wanted to show me to the kitchen. Maybe we can cook something nice together?

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

[Faint blush!]

...He used to cook with me a lot... [If by "cook with me" he means "cook while I watched".]

Okay. Um. Then... we could like... bake some flatbread and maybe roast some meat to go with it. Sound cool?

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

..You'll have to show me how to do that. I don't think that I remember anything.

You and your friend really spent most of your time together, didn't you?

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

Oh. Well, I like, used to cook for myself before we were really friends, so that defs shouldn't be a big problem...

...Yeah. We did. We like, had a bunch of stuff in common--farming and food and religion and stuff--and we lived right next door to each other at home, so we've always hung out a lot.

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

I'm sure he didn't want to leave you.

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

... He... He like, said I didn't need him anymore...
