[ Unlike many people, America hasn't quite found anyone he knows among the bodies yet. That isn't even his primary concern. He's seen bodies before; he's seen people he's loved or hated or never knew die before. He's had to wade through corpses and sort through the dead. No, it's the fact that they're blinking in and out of existence that has him freaked out. So he's wandering around Dissimulo, shotgun in hand. ]

You know, after years of being here and, okay, I've seen some stuff that's pretty much this level of bad, this is still kinda-- aw man, just look at this. Okay this is disturbing in general.

[ He shows a huge spoiler for Game of Thrones with his camera. A second later it blinks, then fades away. America jumps back and gives a small yelp. For good measure, he drops the communicator to fire a few shotgun blasts at the place where it was. Nothing happens. Predictable. So he picks it back up. You can practically see him becoming even more paranoid by the second. ]

The fuck is going on?

[ Now another corpse can be seen nearby. ...It's the same guy covered in arrows. Again, no one he knows, but ten points to you if you know. ]

I should expect this by now. 'Cause this place just likes to mess with us us! And scary, and I can't even tell if this is worse than the place with blood or what. Hoping that this is all in our heads. I mean it's gotta be, right? Just glad there's no familiar faces yet. Gonna find some, I bet, but so far...

Fuck, and you know what? There's still bombs out there too, ones not owned by me, and there's not even a good shelter around here, and what if these are all victims of the Rail Tracer? Don't even fucking laugh because it's a possibility. It's a possibility that we're next but not me, man. Not me.

[ For anyone who can see them, a thestral meanders into the picture and attempts to eat the corpse. Attempt being the operative word. It hisses like a demon at the camera, stomping its feet. Strangely America is not at all perturbed by this. ]

At least we've got cute horsies running around trying to clean up.

Okay, I'm just gonna have to do ab information post about this for ever, but the basics of it is that it's a malevolent force. Not quite a demon, something like it, but way more powerful. These bodies could all very well be its victims.

No it's not! It's cute! They've got wings and a funny-sounding neigh! That's adorable, man.

A. A demon. But worse. [Yeah okay, easiest way to freak her yep, shit get the Holy Water.] What... does it look like?

...It's trying to eat the... bodies. That is far from adorable, idiota.

[ finally SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE PROBLEM. ] Scariest part is that it can take any form, or infect anything. Like a virus. I think its basic form is a guy, though. Red hair, red eyes, smiles like he's thinking of the best way to rip out your soul.

They're being helpful! That's cute.

[Yeah, well, this is what you get for talking to a country that houses the Vatican, demons are serious shit] O-Oh. Great. Does. Does Holy Water work? Crosses? Stakes? Silver bullets?

....No, it is not.

[ As a country who is obsessed with the paranormal, America appreciates it. ~~And because I like to pretend he shoots demons like the Winchesters sob.~~ ] Nothing. So far the only thing that seems to affect it is time. Things happen in a certain order, then they stop. It's like... you can treat the symptoms but the cure is unknown, and meanwhile it keeps spreading and spreading so it gets harder and harder to fix.

And yeah it totally is.

[Together, they will bicker and fight demons then ~~oh that is cute ahh~~] Gr... great. Great, really. There's a stupido demon on the loose and you don't know how to get rid of it?! Have you even tried an exorcism?

...Do you even know Latin? [Dropping the horse thing because looking at it gives her the creeps]

[ It's like a sitcom mixed with horror. OH THOSE WACKY COUNTRIES. ] Hey, I told you, it's like a demon, not is a demon! It's not like this kind of stuff comes with an instruction manual! I was gonna try an exorcism when Latvia ended up possessed here, but he's a sneaky little guy.

...I know the Bible? [ so no. ]

[I'm trying to think of something and all that I'm getting is Modern Family...] Like, is, same thing! Close enough, it's still something from him! And it might not be an instruction manual, but the Holy Book has a lot of information!

[Snorts] Inghilterra's version, no doubt.

[ Modern Family is perfectly acceptable. ] There's no How-To on getting rid of demons in the Bible!

I don't even know what that means!

[Family ties in Hetalia are crazy yes] Clearly not but it does help! You've probably never even glanced at one!

Inghilterra's not even Catholic, that's what it means!

[ I always figured that America's family would be something like Arrested Development ]

Hey, I've read the Bible before, I go to church! I go to the fun church, not the one where you sit around and feel all morose all the time. [ aka African American Baptist Churches. He has yet to realize he's the only white guy there. No one has had the heart to point it out to him yet. ] I read and sing and dance around just like every other good Christian.

Who cares?!

[Fitting...]

... You dance, in Church? [Brow crinkling in a frown, she is pretty sure you're lying about this Church, what the hell are you talking about America] Singing, si, singing happens in Church, but dancing? No. No, no, no. A good Christian doesn't dance in Church.

Well obviously you don't.

Yes they do! It's tons of fun, it's all lively and happy instead of depressing and guilty. [ BEST CHURCH. ]

Nope, not a bit!

Church isn't guilty! Or depressing, it can be... fun. [Except... not]

Idiota.

Fun? Really?

... Si.
