A pair of Hetalia commissions I worked on this month!

Top one is @ask-nyc-boroughs's Alfred and his cousins Rosalie (Rhode Island), Henry (Massachusetts) and Josh (Connecticut)

Bottom one is a Mexico OC requested by an anonymous client on Gmail. DO NOT use this commissioned illustration for your own ocs and roleplay purposes!

My commissions are OPEN!

[objection-zero]

What if I showed you guys my Hetalia OCs for the 50 states that I've been working on for the past 2 months?

👀👀

Delaware:

- Overly stressed all the time, he has a complex where he needs to feel important. So he opts to do work that would normally fall on the other 49 so he can seem important to them.

- He's the busyman of Delmarva, he gets everything squared away.

- He has the biggest, most effective puppy dog eyes in the world. They're just big and sad and it's hard to say no!

Pennsylvania:

- Very active, has a gym in her home for sure even though she prefers to go outside and work out.

- She and Delaware are very close, as the first two states they became good friends (and New Jersey!). She does her best to protect Delaware when she can.

- Very straightforward, she doesn't mess around. You always know what to expect from her.

New Jersey:

- Loud. So very loud. Always wearing gaudy makeup and unappealing clothing.

- She's very loyal as a friend though–her and New York hang out constantly, with half of their time dedicated to debating something or other loud enough for everyone around them to hear.

- She and New York have been in a battle over the ownership of the Statue of Liberty for a long time. Since the statue is technically on an island that belongs to her, but New York will not give it up. She owns the gift shop.

Georgia:

- One of my favorite states, I love her and her design very dearly.

- I like to think of her as a Mary Sue type, where she's always busy and has an overwhelming amount of work to handle, but she does it all so easily and so effectively that you'd never guess how much she does.

- Also, she owns a peach orchid absolutely.

Connecticut:

- "Um, actually—🤓👆" embodied.

- Everyone is sick of how entitled he is, because he acts like he's so much more intelligent than everyone.

- Which is funny because he is really really smart, but still not as smart as he pretends to act.

- He's one of the only states that's friends with Ohio.

Massachusetts:

- Do not utter the word "revolution" around this man or he will go nuts.

- Very quick to act, very quick to anger. He likes to set things on fire—he always carries a lighter on him— and argue. If he ever came face to face with England, it would probably go very badly.

- He despises tea, to the point he physically cannot drink it.

Maryland:

- The mediator of Delmarva, this man is the master of solving problems. He's the sweetest.

- Also, the best chef in the country aside from Louisiana and I cannot stress that enough. You know this man has a BIG kitchen in his house.

South Carolina:

- The bimbo of the country okay.

- I just love the idea of her being so determined to be a farmer, but struggling so much because she's just not designed to be a farmer. But she won't give up even though she probably should.

- She's good friends with Georgia but her and North Carolina definitely have a rivalry going on.

New Hampshire:

- Can this man calm down? Please?

- He basically bounces off the walls, definitely has ADHD, and always down to do somethint stupid.

- He spends a good portion of his time bugging Vermont because she's easy to annoy. New Hampshire and Vermont are very close though. The siblings ever.

Virginia:

- I had to make one of them emo okay.

- She's the confident leader of Delmarva for sure. As the first state colonized, she's got a good heart for leadership. She's the state that works the closest with America directly.

- Despite being emo, she's very sweet.

Ahhh Image limit. Check repost for the other states!

Besides that, here's a drawing of both NY and MA that I drew some time around 2020—

At least with my states ocs, this gives Mona/California energy cause lol I see California really being in charge of public relations related aspects amongst the states given how much media industry related stuff gets based out there (ex: movies, tv, influence), and also she’d say it politely.

I would say Lynn/Manhattan or Jennie/ NY did this but like lol I feel if they’re too embarrassed to be associated with Alfred and the rest they’re more likely to say nothing.

Personally, my Massachusetts, Henry, I see as a more of a chaotic academic with anger issues- like an old man sort of. And I think he’s banned from social media cause of that and the fact he has no filter whatsoever so he’s going to say something unhinged. This tweet is too polite for him to send that.

In a states AU, which state posts this

2p America Headcanons

Wears a dog tag received from his version of Davie who died in their world's war. This is his most precious thing other than his bat and sunglasses and is almost never seen without it. It was once taken by Lutz in a prank and let's just say, Lutz was bed bound for a month.

Get him angry enough and he slips into a Brooklyn accent. Also gains a New Jersey accent when the show Jersey Shore comes on which he detests with a burning passion.

Hates the aforementioned show and will join New Jersey in burning every bit of merch/DVD/CDs they can find.

Dresses up as a villain on Halloween to freak out Alfred.

Has a fear of clowns following the 2016 killer clown fiasco but will never admit it.

Loves his Louisville slugger bat and just about brings it everywhere. Has since taken all the nails out since living with America and the states. No one knows how it's able to fit in his jacket.

Knows what happened to his world's Roanoke Colony but will never tell.

Since coming to the 1p world, he along with the rest of the 2ps, have gained the same up-to-date scars their counterparts have. Most notably, he has two long scars on his back (towers), one on his forehead hidden above his hairline (pentagon), and one on his back calf(Pennsylvania) from the 9/11 attack to mirror Alfred.

Is surprisingly really good at horse riding and can lasso anything from yards away. This comes in handy when corralling states. Likes riding with Texas.

Doesn't know how to ice skate so Minnesota and Michigan helped teach him.

Extremely vulnerable to Hawaii and Alaska's puppy dog eyes despite his tough-guy image.

Makes sure to teach every kid baseball and joins New York at the Yankees games.

Often helps California with her vegan recopies and helps states like Kansas, Iowa, and Georgia grow their corn/peaches. Can actually cook because of this and Oliver's lessons as a kid, unlike Alfred who's tastebuds were ruined by Arthur.

Likes pranking other countries with the states.

Knows magic and helps tutor Lousiana and Massachusettes in their magic. (See my 2p America's Magic post for more info.)

Is really protective of the states and goes into papa bear mode when they're threatened.

Holds a grudge with Luciano and often terrorizes him.

Passed out when first introduced to Tony and still a little freaked out by him. interestingly, it's harder for him to believe in the concept of aliens than magic while it's the opposite with 1p America.

Loves taking care of the family whale, but will never admit to being a softie (He totally is).

Has a mouth on him and curses like it's going out of style. Censors himself rather creatively around the states though.

Trusts Delaware and Virginia the most out of all the states to be responsible and not do anything stupid.

Pennsylvania : In my defense, I was left unsupervised. Virginia : Wasn't Massachusetts with you? Massachusetts : In my defense, I was also left unsupervised.

Thanksgiving Preparation

Massachusetts: Alright, states we have T minus 5, no! 4 hours to get this damn house ready!

Pennsylvania *half-awake*: Okay, Masshole, why wake us up at five in the morning though?

Massachusetts: One call me that again and I place a hex on your face. Second, we are already behind schedule already.

Delaware: So, she says.

Massachusetts: That threat applies to you as well. Anyways, we have a lot to do. Georgia, Maryland, you and Louisiana are going to be in charge of the food. Delaware and Pennsylvania will be in charge of setting up the table before Dad wakes up. South and North will set up the games for later outside.

South Carolina: You know it's freezing outside right?

Massachusetts: Put on a jacket then. Connecticut, New Hampshire, and New York will be in charge of managing the budget we have this year given that last year we went a BIT over.

New York: A bit?! I spent a week trying to rebalance our home budget because of it.

Massachusetts: Again I will curse you. And finally, I want Ginny-

Virginia: Don't call me that!

Massachusetts: Ginny and Rhodey to get the donations Dad asked to gather from the states...Speaking of Dad, I want this Thanksgiving to go well not just for me but for him. These past two years have been really difficult on him and part of that is from us so I want this year to be the best Thanksgiving he's ever had. I want today to be a day where all of us can just come together and be thankful that we're all here and together.

The Thirteen:...*nods*

Massachusetts: Also if something bad happens, I will destroy you all with my magic. Alright, everyone to your jobs!

Store Worker: Would a Mr. Alfred Jones please come to the front desk?

America: *Arriving at the desk* Hello, is there a problem?

Store Worker: *Points over to Delaware and Massachusetts*

Store Worker: I believe they belong to you?

America: I didn’t even bring you guys here with me-

Pennsylvania: Ok I’ll be the robber in this situation and show me what you would do.

Pennsylvania: Give me all your money or I’ll shoot you!

Delaware: Bold of you to assume I have money.

Massachusetts: Bold of you to assume I want to live.

Maryland: *has a heart attack and faints because of social interaction*

Pennsylvania: I hate you guys so much....
