Hi from one shorty to another: how do you deal with people calling you short lol (I'm 150 and have been mistaken for a P5 kid so many times I've lost count)

Sorry, that's all I got. But it's not so bad to look young I guess. I still like to be called 'Ah boy' by coffeeshop aunties.

I'm from Hong Kong and I remember going to Singapore for the first time ever and I kept accidentally calling the MRT the MTR and standing on the right side of the escalator instead the left 😭😭 the food was so good tho (p.s love ur blog 🤩🤩🫶)

He purposely calls it the MTR. I'm glad you enjoyed the food, though. It's what I do best.

你吃饭了没事做，是吗？！？

(ooc : translations in read more)

Kan ni na / diu lei lou mou : It's really just hokkien and cantonese for saying 'fuck your mother' (which neither of them really have, so 🤷‍♀️)

nei mou sei gor : cantonese for 'you've never died before right?'

吃饭了没事做 (chi fan le mei shi zuo) : you ate already and have nothing better to do. Basically just saying that someone's just bored.

I've been really craving bubble tea recently, want to go get some? I need some sugar, i think im drinking too much coffee recently 😮‍💨 (Ask-hws-singapore)

Oh, sure thing! I'm always up for boba. ( ദ്ദി ˙ᗜ˙ )

Hey there! Are you familiar with Mr Iceland besides diplomatic purposes? Since that time Mal, Indo and Phil hung out with him, I was kinda wondering where you were lol

(P.S. mod I love this blog sm)

Relying on the sea is one of the main things we have in common I guess. Overbearing 'brothers' is another thing.

But I think Iceland is very nice to talk to. Uh. Maybe I get a bit too comfortable sometimes. I hope he don't think I complain too much. He's also Hong Kong's friend so, I guess if anyone can put up with that guy can't be too bad.

a small compilation of some nationverse lore headcanons i love!! for inspo :)

⤿ physical

a nation's physical strength is equal to the combination of their current military & political power and it fluctuates a lot — e.g., habsburg austria was a lot stronger than he looked and could beat most nations in one-on-one scuffles, but that's no longer true (i'm obsessed with the implications of one nation being able to physically overpower another, and later their distress when they realise they're no longer able to)

nations heal faster and are in 'conservation mode' during times of war. their bodies become accustomed to the constant healing process and can do it faster, while their more human needs for basic things like food, water, and rest are minimised

their pain tolerance is impressive too!

they experience physical symptoms when they get new nations as rulers e.g., when finland was given to the russian empire, that came with headaches and dizziness for finland over the sudden adjustment

when nations lose a lot of their territory at once it itches like a phantom limb for some time

⤿ psychological & more

the nations are selfish by nature!! it doesn't matter how much they love or care for someone on a personal level, they are innately incapable of not choosing their own best interests, and those decisions are easy for them even when they're at the expense of loved ones (they can still feel guilty, but they don't regret it)

gender generally doesn't matter that much, similar to how some ancient societies were alright with female deities having 'masculine' traits (artemis the archer, athena the strategist, etc.) nation women aren't held to (most) of the same standards as human women and it's fine for most of them to be involved in war, politics & battle strategy

at the same time, nations who aren't close don't see each other as their "human form" (which includes discussions of gender) — e.g., most nations wouldn't go easy on hungary just "because she's a woman" since they see her as a nation-creature-whatever-thing first, as hungary first, and as a person, erzsébet, second or not at all. they're very aware of their own non-human nature, and their perception of other nations as individuals only comes when they get to know them well

^ for that same reason, most nations don't refer to each other by their human names. it's a sign of closeness when they do (and they feel awkward when they have to use someone's human name for bureaucratic reasons, which has become more commonplace in modern times)

but also, younger nations are often less strict about human names, and use them more often than older nations

i feel like we overestimate how much information they can retain! often their memories of older times are vague, with some clear, standout moments. they argue with each other over who remembers certain things more correctly ("i definitely kicked your ass in battle in the 1420s" "no you didn't! that was me!")

nation children are also children mentally, so in modern times the laws around nation representatives require that they have some kind of legal guardian (often a nation they have a familial relationship with)

"If you lose them again, I'll charge you 10 cents for using my printer."

@ask-the-pearloftheorient

Kiasu - It technically means 'fear of losing (out)' / being overly competitive, but people nowadays use it more as an all encompassing term for also being way-too-overly-careful(?)/over-preparedness for a 'just in case'(?)
