[video] in which America will prove that he's right and YOU ARE WRONG

[starspangledhero]

[ Something is amiss in Hetalialand. If you thought Italy!Japan was odd, you're in for something else tonight. Instead of America's usual bomber jacket/hippie clothes/nudity, he's actually cleaned himself up. The horrendous bowl cut is slicked back to be less... awful, he's clean-shaven, and he's managed to patch together a semi-respectable navy blue suit. (Kinda like the icon but way more dusty/moth-eaten/DAMN IT DISCEDO RUINS EVERYTHING AND HE'S TRYING.) Also, red bow tie. Of course. There is nothing to be done about the cowlick. Oh, and the bandages are gone yay! All that's left is a bruise around his left eye.

America had currently set the communicator aside to finish fixing his hair in the mirror. Even his apartment is cleaned up what the hell have you done to him, Japan. ]

Japan's love life aside, there's still a lot of other work to be done to Discedo. Things to be mended, repaired, restored, removed, explored. And I hope you know all know that I fully intend to do all that. As much as is possible for a world power, anyway, though I have to say that's a lot to look forward to!

[ He finishes combing his hair and, to the side of the screen, effortless hoists a washing machine onto his shoulder and moves it off-screen. Walking back over: ]

Doctor Whoever You Are, whenever you're free, I'd very much appreciate any help with this. I can move them all to the basement no problem, but I'm afraid I'm a bit lost when it comes to piping and repairs. Still, I'll do all I can!

In the mean time... I've decided to take everyone's advice and give myself a night off. I've already worked myself to death once; it wouldn't do anyone a favor to repeat that. Not when there's so much left to do!

Anyone is welcome to join me for a drink, or just to hang out-- er, socialize. Whatever. Point is, company's welcome. Otherwise I guess I'll... go fight my way through the library and hope they have one of my writers. Or something sci-fi!

[ America grins, winks at the camera, and bows slightly before moving to shut it off. Blame Japan. BLAME THE COMMUNISTS TOO IF YOU'D LIKE. ]

... America?

Are you feeling okay?

[starspangledhero]

Perfectly fine! In fact, I'm feeling quite fantastic now that I've had a decent shower!

[ STARING... STARING... ]

I believe I've fallen asleep and fallen into a world where up is down and down is up.

[starspangledhero]

[ Ehehehehehehe too bad for you, America's remaining perfectly calm. ]

Hello England! You haven't fallen asleep, I promise.

[italianshadow.livejournal.com]

... America, you look really nice today!

[starspangledhero]

[ IT'S OKAY ITALY. AMERICA WILL REPAIR IT SOON ENOUGH WITH MORE OF HIS SHENANIGANS. Just not tonight. ]

Thank you, Italy! You look...

[ Pause. ]

Uh, way Italian and stylish and totally not useless! ...Today.

[THIS IS A PLACEHOLDER I WILL TAG LATER but oh gosh Japan is so proud. And calmed down from that other post, by the way. Yes. Just. Proud. And staring. Dreamily.]

[starspangledhero]

[ AS THOUGH YOU EVEN NEED A PLACEHOLDER. ]

[ OH JOY COMPANY. America's expression is pleasantly neutral, lights up in its usual goofy grin the second he sees its Edgeworth, and then automatically relaxes back into politely happy. It's like something out of Stepford I swear to god. ]

Miles! This is an unexpected pleasure! What're you doing over here? Ah, sorry, come in!

[ Holding the door open like a ~TRUE GENTLEMAN~ ]

Is there anything I can get you? Coffee? Tea?

[kongeriget]

YER DYING!

[starspangledhero]

I'm not dying!

[ since he is not familiar with america, he really can't be surprised by how...different he is, unfortunately. also, hi there, voice actor buddy. ]

You believe you are capable of fixing everything here by yourself?

[starspangledhero]

[ HI THERE, VOICE BUDDY. sob I need to get back to stalking the Baccano cast. ]

I've fixed more impossible things, and what's the harm in trying?

[Canada really has no idea what to say.

His face is this icon.

Who are you and what have you done with his brother, seriously.]

[starspangledhero]

Hey Matthew!

[ SLIGHTLY. LESS LOUD THAN THE USUAL "HEY BROTHER" ]

[starspangledhero]

Do what?

[Cue obligatory staring. Mostly suspicion. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A TRICK.]

[starspangledhero]

[ AHAHAHAHAHA JUST AS EDGEWORTH SUGGESTED. America's going to have fun with this. ]

Can I help you?

[ridingabicycle.livejournal.com]

... Japan's love life?

[starspangledhero]

Yup! He's a lonely old man and I'm helping him out!

[Video; English]

[forced-player.livejournal.com]

Why are you acting weird?

[Video; English]

[starspangledhero]

Why, whatever do you mean?

[ SMUG SMIRK. ]

[bubbleteatime.livejournal.com]

America's gonna save the world... tomorrow! Though I wonder if you can still do that if you get a hangover.

[starspangledhero]

As long as it's not like the hangover from New Year's--

I mean, of course I can!
