Im Not Part Of The Aph Fandom At All But I Think Usuk Is Cute On Some Level

Okay, so this was posted today:

Ahh, those little quips.

And apparently this was posted last year:

Top source of FDI?? America is making a point of mentioning that England is a strong source of money? So England is America's sugar...nation, huh.

I can't help being reminded of the scene where England's dying and America is getting all emotional, telling him, "You can't die!" before quickly adding, "You still owe me moneeyyy!!!"

Also, "UKinUSA" 👀👀

Me anxiously waiting for tmr

Demon Days England! 

Inspired by @lofi-tophat’s post on Hetalia characters in the style of popular art/animation of their countries.

wips for this are here

Personally I don’t get anything from the part people are upset over but ‘England is tsundere for America’. I do greatly appreciate the confirmation of that and OF COURSE the statement about how important America is to him is so lovely. And he ‘can’t quite say his true feelings?’ Bless you, England. He acts like an adult on the surface, but only to America. Underneath, he’s very different- it’s as if he feels he has to deal with him like a grownup who suppresses his heart. - is pretty much a word for word description of what a tsundere is. So basically England is tsundere but only for America is what I’ve got. And Hima even says ‘he’s a tsundere’ at the end of the blurb. Most of the time in anime/manga when there’s a couple the creator is always more open about one side’s feelings than the other’s, and APH is no exception (AusHun, Chibitalia/HRE, etc.). And this is just so normal that I don’t quite understand why some people are upset over the fact that Hima isn’t as overt when discussing America’s feelings. America’s concern and the way that England impacts him is made clear in the strips itself, and almost every scene in which we see America being very serious or touched involves England. US and UK are a lot like a Takahashi couple. America isn’t a perfect fit for jerk with a heart of gold, but he fits in ways that matters (he’s also a bit of a tsundere himself). England is of course, a tsundere. Because of that England’s feelings are ALWAYS going to be more evident because that’s just the way the trope works and the way the character types work. The tsundere will generally realize their feelings long before the other, and this will be made apparent.

America’s canon obliviousness really plays into this as it’s very commonly found in relationships like this. It’s one of the things that generally sets a 'tsundere’ character off. The tsundere works up the courage to show their feelings in some way, but the other character doesn’t get what they’re going for. Happens all the time, and it happens with these two.

One difference between them and the typical couple in that trope is that they’re really both equally at fault for the fail. Sometimes the tsundere is less at fault in couples, but there are just as many moments where America is trying with England and doesn’t get the desired response as there is with England trying toward America (which is why I can’t stand the poor England, America is so mean mindset some of fandom has. They’re BOTH like that). The boys suck at communicating, which is also really common in the trope (and often if the characters just sat down and talked for a bit, all would be solved). I do believe that USxUK is set up like a couple. Hetalia has always been a series that plays with tropes a lot (part of its parody aspect), and they are no exception. I think that this new info is great, and I don’t personally agree with the idea that it’s indicative of unrequited love or whatnot. To me it’s almost the opposite. It’s the same kind of statements you see about couples like this all the time. And that actually really makes me happy.

O’n i’n meddwl heddi am sut mae Cymru yn siarad. Cyfaddaf fy mod i’n dod o Gaerdydd felly dydw i ddim mor gyfarwydd ag acenion gogledd a gorllewin Cymru.

Dychmygaf ei fod yn siarad gyda acen eithaf generig yn saesneg rhan fwyaf o’r amser (e.e pan mae’n mynd i cyfarfodydd rhwngwladol (sydd yn anghyffredin)) ac acen fwy gog pan mae yn ei gwlad ei hyn. Wrth iddo siarad saes dwi’n sicr ei fod yn defnyddio geiriau cymraeg trwy’r amser ac pan mae’n siarad cymraeg dyw e ddim yn defnyddio geiriau saesneg o gwbl. Mae hyn yn gwneud iddo swnio fel hen ddyn rhan fwyaf o’r amser gan ei fod o ddim yn defnyddio bratiaith.

Credaf i bod Cymru yn siarad gyda acen cymraeg trwm iawn pan mae’n siarad saesneg gyda Lloegr jest i’w wylltio. Ble mae’r acen o? Mae’n dibynnu sut mae’n teimlo siwr o fod. Credaf hefyd bod ei acên yn dod yn trwmach pan mae’n flinedig. Os mae o digon grac ei fod yn gweiddi mae yn barod wedi newid nol i’r gymraeg.

I’ve been thinking about how wales speaks and what his accent might be. I confess I’m from Cardiff, Wales’s capital, and I’m not as familiar with northern and western accents.

I imagine that wales speaks with a fairly generic welsh accent most of the time (like when he’s at international summits (though he doesn’t attend those very often)) and a more northern accent when in wales. When he speaks english I’m convinced he uses welsh words and directly translated welsh idioms all the time, and that when he speaks welsh he never uses any English. This makes him sound like an old and very proper/nit-picky man since most welsh slang is just English loanwords.

I believe that wales uses a very heavy welsh accent just to wind England up. Where’s it from? Depends how he’s feeling I guess. I also believe his accent becomes heavier the more tired he is. If he’s angry enough that he’s shouting then he probably switched back to welsh 10 minutes ago.

How is Wales and Ireland relationship? And also, what's your opinion on England's and Scotland's marriage? (300 year lol) Do you think North Ireland hates England too?

1) Good I think, both of them seems very talkative and can start a chat at anytime. In old days Ireland would go across the sea, but Wales doesn’t come out often so they don’t meet a lot.

The only problem is they probably can’t understand each other very easily, at least from their mouth I don’t think it’ll look like the same language anymore? Good luck to them.

2) Inevitable. Porbably the best decision that could be made at that time.

Scotland probably doesn’t like to talk about it very much.

Actually getting money without having to work in modern days is probably not that bad. But I still want to divorce.

3)

Happy St. Patrick's Day from Ireland!

My current headcanon about the mysterious gentleman that haunts Ireland is that he's a spiritual reincarnation of the actual St. Patrick that introduced Catholicism to the country. If you look at the artistic depictions of St. Patrick, and the spooky spirit that gives him advice, they strike an uncanny resemblance!

This started out as a doodle but then I tried solving math exercises (emphasis on the word tried) and I felt so helpless, stupid and unworthy that I decided to finish this. I'm not one to draw backgrounds, especially when it's an urban setting with a lot of buildings but hey, math helped me find the motivation 🙃

I didn't actually do the lineart though 😂
