#Aph Kansas

[objection-zero]

California:

- The leading state is GDP and population, she's an absolute powerhouse.

- Very sunny and happy, always got a bright air about her.

- When she puts clothes on, they shrink to be very revealing. But the states just perceive the regular clothes she put on. She could put on a suit and tie and it would turn into basically nothing on her. Idk why

Minnesota:

- Always shopping, full on girly girl

- You can usually find her sunbathing or by a lake too.

- She's just a girl!

Oregon:

- As a past resident of Orgeon, I have enough credibility to say this man is a bitch.

- He pretends to hate California and Washington, but in reality he's very close with them, and just gets overwhelmed by them.

- He's a big hiker

Kansas:

- My second favorite state design

- After the Wizard of Oz came out, she got sick of all the jokes about her name and started going by Dee-Dee instead.

- Owns a sunflower farm and will often gift bouquets to the other states.

West Virginia:

- The laziest man to ever live.

- Everything is a mess in his house, but he does care enough to clean it.

- He's the nicest one of all the states though.

- Virginia greatly dislikes him but he doesn't mind her.

Nevada:

- He makes a living off of scamming people so he's naturally very suave and handsome.

- The second you mention anything alien around him he goes off the rails, with his hair all messy and clearly unstable.

- He was probably experimented on at some point.

Nebraska:

- I don't have much to say about Nebraska. I don't think anyone has a lot to say about Nebraska.

- He's really funny though. He has the best sense of humor.

Colorado:

- The chillest state in the union, he's definitely a stoner.

- Has OCD in my mind, used to be crazy about Mining but has learnt to chill out. He's very cool in my opinion.

North Dakota:

- Tends to wander off on adventures without really telling anyone.

- He gets lost very easily.

South Dakota:

- Fears disappointing people a lot. He's a big people pleaser.

- Cries a lot.

- The Dakotas are rarely seen without the other. They're truly inseparable.

Check reblogs for the other states!

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!

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.

69 for ColCa, 21 for Rusty & Kitty and 5 for Chris & Evelyn :]

Well, my beloved, either you picked awful numbers, or I have awful taste in music (unlikely for the Cyrano soundtrack features heavily on my Wrapped this year), because #69 is Mongolian rock music, #21 actually will work for that ship but not in a fun way, and #5 is the song I use to try to calm down my dog whenever the concept of wind gives her anxiety.

Anyhow, everyone whose old enough to remember when this was a Hetalia state OC blog, watch me return to my embarrassing ways.

Also, my most beautiful dearest... Tumblr has FUCKED their post editing and I really despise doing THREE of these fuckers in ONE ask. Goddamn NIGHTMARE post.

This ask is in reply to

#69, Carson and Roberto

"I'll pick #69 for the horniest characters," Katie thought. "Surely the funny number will correspond with a song that's worthy of the number." And then Jess looked at her playlist and found Mongolian rock music. Which was good music, but FREAKING HARD to adapt for these characters.

Absolutely no warnings for this, but the others will feature content warnings of a sort.

*

"What on earth are you listening too?" Carson asked as Roberto was at his desk in the living room, editing a movie script and actually wearing his reading glasses for once.

"Music." Roberto answered, chewing on the end of his pen. A habit he'd developed when he quit smoking.

"I can tell that." Carson deposited the decaf coffee next to his significant other, before taking a sip from his bottle of beer. "But where the heck is it from?"

"Mongolia." Roberto answered. "Bev sent me the album, said 'it fucks severely'. And she was right, it does."

Carson bit back a chuckle. "Of course she did. Is that script even set in Asia?"

"The vibes I need to edit does not have to match the vibes of the screenplay."

"Doesn't answer my question."

Roberto doesn't even glance at him, making a few quick edits and then frowning at something. Carson could have sworn he heard Roberto mutter well that's just a little too cliche for me even as he scribbled something out. Carson just watched him work, and sighed, settling down on the couch with his beer. Roberto's dogs were already fast asleep in their beds.

In a little while, he'd drag him off to bed. But for now, he'd just listen to this music with Roberto, and wonder if that script was set anywhere near Mongolia.

#21, Rusty and Kitty

Well. Sure this won't be sad/dark/SOMETHING EMOTIONAL.

Quick Author's note: This is set sometime in the late 1800s, North Carolina, and contains some allusions period typical racial violence. However, the characters, being capable of resurrection, do more violence in revenge. So you're warned in advance.

*

The problems always began when the area they'd managed to eek away a safe place to live in became too settled. When more people came, and asked questions about why a black woman and a white man were living together. Of course, Rusty knew that if the situation were reversed, it would be far worse. But still...

Here he and Kitty were, resurrecting in the ashes of their burned cabin. It wasn't the first time, and it wouldn't be the last. Slowly, he got up, and went looking for their stash.

The spare clothes, food and water, and the weapons were out by the time Kitty stirred. Rusty helped her clean up and get dressed before he worried too much about himself. But once they were both done, they looked at each other with tired eyes.

When they'd come home after re-admittance to the Union, they'd both prayed things would get better. But as Reconstruction had faded away, they'd watched it all go to hell again. Rusty didn't even have to ask Kitty, tossing her a fully loaded pistol and a rifle with a bayonet already affixed.

They didn't speak. No banter of Yellowhammer or Tar Heel. Kitty simply crested the slight hill to look down on the town, and when Rusty joined her, she pointed out the houses of each of the men who'd burned down their home. Tired green eyes met exhausted brown ones, and they sat down, recovering and waiting.

And when night had fallen again, when the town was silent and still with sleep, they went down.

They stayed at each other's backs as they broke down doors and walked into bedrooms. As they shot their way through men who had shot them. They only killed the ones who'd been involved, leaving the others in each family behind.

And in the morning, they were somewhere in the mountains, sitting on stolen horses, and nursing cups of coffee with reloaded pistols.

Others in the north could preach about peace. Of a house divided reuniting. But the North, the Union, had abandoned them.

Alabama took North Carolina's hand as she walked them further south. They'd take shelter in Ashton's home for a while. South Carolina would have probably have heard of the murders by the time they got there, but he wouldn't turn out his sister, or Rusty. He'd frown, and quietly let them in.

Violence answered violence. And as long as justice was not served in this country, Rusty and Kitty, along with all the other states, would have blood on their names.

#5, Chris and Evelyn

Not much to work with from a calming, instrumental piece, so I used the title more as the prompt than anything else.

Quick Author's notes: Nothing too serious in this one, but there are some musings on death, so be warned.

*

They're sitting on the porch of Christopher's home in Wallowa county as the last light of the summer day fades into the night. The insects are singing, and the wind is whispering all around them. Both have Pendleton blankets across their laps, just existing in a peaceful silence.

And then, Chris speaks.

"How do you think it'll be when we die a permanent death? Do you think it'll be violent? Or will we just go to sleep? And- will we leave behind any signs we lived at all?"

Evelyn blinks, startled out of her silent reverie. "Well. How long have you been sitting on that one?"

"A bit." Chris admits, looking out at his horses. "I guess it's mostly in the abstract, but the succession movements always bring it to mind."

Ah, this was about Greater Idaho. Fifty years ago, it was about the State of Jefferson. Ten years ago, it was about Cascadia. Chris and Beverly constantly remembering that if they became too fractured, one or both of them might fall.

"Maybe it'll be violent. But I think we'll just- just disappear." She looked towards the softly colored sky, still clothed in dusk rather than night. "People will know we existed. We'll leave behind some sort of legacy."

Chris looked doubtful on that. She knew why. He'd watched languages and people die, while the conquerors tried to pretend they'd never existed at all. She took his hand.

"If something happened to you, and I was still around, I'd make sure you were remembered. Adam would. Clark would. We all would. I promise you won't just disappear.

He nodded, giving her a grateful look without looking directly at her. As their hands fell apart from each other, she heard him whisper.

"I'd do the same if anything happened to you."

Texas: My worst trauma is when Oklahoma tried to murder me during a tornado.

Oklahoma: I didn’t try to murder you... I just didn’t try to save you.

Kansas, with a very fake smile: I love your friendship, guys!

[iwanttorunfree]

I’ve decided to declare war on Kansas

Beware they strike from the cornfields.

[azarthelostarchangel]

Kansas: I’m sort of a chicken magnet.

Indiana: Don’t you mean chick magn-

*distant bawk-bawking*

Kansas: We have to go NOW!!

[missmagicandlight]

could you do general 7? it kind of gives me mi/oh vibes but anyone is fine :)

general 7. “I love you.” “You shouldn’t.”

1886

Addison doesn’t exactly make a secret of it, but Caleb assumes that since he’s still alive, neither of her brothers know. 

He should have discouraged her more when it was still a puppy crush, but he hadn’t. Now he has to do this.

“I love you,” Addison tells him, completely sincere. 

“You shouldn’t,” 

"Don't treat me like a child, Caleb," Addison says, an edge to her words that he's never heard before. "Don't you dare try to tell me I don't know how I feel just because you're scared. I like you and you like me, so why shouldn't we try?"

"I don't like you,” Caleb tries, and Addison lights up like a Christmas tree, and Caleb realizes his mistake.

Addison could sense lies. 

[incorrect-states-quotes]

Kansas: What are you doing?

Missouri: Working on my end-of-the-world playlist. So far I’ve got Skeeter Davis’s “The End of The World” and R.E.M.’s “It’s The End of The World As We Know It.”

Weird things the states have done

-Michigan once kicked a chair out from underneath Ohio and Ohio didn’t fall down. He also didn’t stand up, he literally just stayed sitting on nothing.

-Wisconsin, Indiana, and Michigan went to an indoor water park and floated around the lazy river while singing I Want it That Way. Illinois got a video.

-Minnesota and the Dakotas decided to go mattress sledding and North Dakota smacked his head against a table and got a concussion.

-Kansas walked directly into a tornado to prove that it was possible. It didn’t end well.

-Rhode Island once pulled a small tree out of the ground and used it to hit Massachusetts in the knee because Mass called him a sewer for the billionth time.

-Nebraska drove a tractor over a homemade ramp and it flipped over with him on it.

-Idaho slowly ate a raw potato in front of the United Nations while making direct eye contact with Russia. To this day no one knows why.

-West Virginia bit down on his wallet, looked directly at a poor CIA agent, and said “whom the frickity frack took my breakfast sandwich?” It turns out the sandwich was in his back pocket.

-Washington spilled coffee on their jeans and immediately declared God to be both a bitch and dead.

-Iowa bought a bunch of those corn on the cob holders and stuck them all over Illinois’ car because he was “being a little bitch”

-New York walked to New Jersey’s apartment (which was pretty far away at the time) at two in the morning just to ask if water is wet. He then made himself a cup of coffee and left.

-Kentucky rode a horse into a grocery store, looked around, and when told he had to leave yelled “THAT ISN’T VERY CASH MONEY OF YOU, CIVILIAN”

-Colorado wore a really large trench coat to a meeting one day and he wouldn’t tell anyone what was in it until after the meeting, where he pulled New Mexico aside and showed him that the inside pockets were filled with memes.

-There’s a video of New Hampshire screaming at Massachusetts while Massachusetts attempts to inject caffeine directly into his veins.

-New Hampshire also wore a shirt that said Big Dad Energy in big bold letters and when asked how many kids he had by a stranger he started laughing hysterically.

-Michigan has a shirt that says I’m Concerned About the Blueberries that he only seems to wear when he gets exactly two hours of sleep. Louisiana once saw him wearing the shirt and forced him to stop and take a nap.

-Florida grabbed a handful of leaves off the nearest tree and started eating them while Virginia explained that attacking European tourists is bad.

-Georgia pushed Alabama into a puddle and he just laid there for about five minutes before rolling over and calling Georgia a bitch.

-You know the vine where the guy at the mini golf course jumps into the water? Hawaii does that every time. No one goes mini golfing with her anymore.

-Alaska took a bite of a dog treat instead of a protein bar, stared at it in confusion, shrugged, and continued eating.

-Another video: Tennessee: *sobbing hysterically* Virginia: WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU???? Tennessee: I HAVEN’T SLEPT IN A WEEK AND SOMEONE DREW A FACE ON MY BANJO WHILE I WAS TRYING TO NAP AND I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN ‘CAUSE Y’ALL DON’T LIKE THE FACT THAT I WAS BETTER AT THE CIVIL WAR THAN ANYONE ELSE! Virginia: You need to calm down- Tennessee: YoU NeED tO CaLm DowN!

-Texas and Cherokee were arguing over how Oklahoma should live his life while Oklahoma filled a duffel bag with hors d’oeuvres at the fancy party Maryland threw.

-Arizona was carrying around a fancy velvet purse for a day and when California asked what it was for she pulled out seven hard boiled eggs. The only question California asked was “can I have one?” Arizona said no, packed the eggs up again, and left.

-One day Montana and Colorado switched wardrobes and no one noticed since they both wear flannels from the women’s section.

-Wyoming pulled out a water bottle at a meeting and chugged it in under a minute. Turns out it was vodka and she fell down the stairs trying to leave.

-Vermont drank a bottle of maple syrup while Maine recorded. They later sent it to Quebec who watched the entire thing twice before responding with “why are you so dumb?”

-Connecticut got locked out of his house and broke his leg trying to climb to the second floor window. 

-Literally everything New Mexico does is weird, like when he bought a set of sporks and threw his spoons and forks out.

Just some antics don’t mind them

[booklover4816]

Can we have a lil’ dirt on Kansas, Nebraska, the Dakotas and Hawaii? Plus I have an idea for Montana’s human name: Delphine Yvonne Jones. Delphine means dolphin and Yvonne means yew tree. I’m also picturing America having a voice recorder where he records samples of himself yelling the states’ human names, each file named StateNameHereHumanName and New Mexico, Arizona, Alaska and Hawaii found Montana’s human name on there, turned it up to full volume and revealed Montana’s human name.

Delphine’s a pretty name. I wish I would have thought about it a couple of years ago. Montana’s human name is Olivia, but she doesn’t really like being called that. America’s the only one allowed to call her that, to everyone else it is Montana. Pennsylvania and Georgia call her that when she’s in trouble, though. 

America does have a list of the state’s human names and birthday’s in the computer, though, because he’s such a dad. He forgets them all the time. Seriously, my dad always called me by my sister’s name and sometimes would ask me if my birthday’s in October (mine is in January, 2 days before his), and my dad only had 2 kids. So, America with his 50 would be so much worse with mixing up names and birthdays.

Let’s see, what can I tell you about Kansas, Nebraska, and the Dakotas? All four of them have wheat colored hair due to being Great Plains States -- it reflects the appearance of their lands. Kansas is kind of sickly due to not only the fact that she gets a lot of tornadoes, but also because of the history of Bleeding Kansas. Nebraska a huge agriculturalist -- like, he’s the ultimate farmer and would rather spend most of his days in the field than doing boring paperwork. And the Dakotas are practically identical twins that even America has difficulty telling them apart sometimes (he figures it out eventually) -- they, of course, use this for maximum mischief.

[ask-the-aph-us-territories]

Hawaiian pizza really is good. People are just mean. But other than that, are there any other foods you all have that mainlanders would consider "Bizarre?"

Guam: Our food isn’t weird. Apigigi’ is absolutely delicious! It has a sweet taste that makes it irresistible! And lemmai has always been apart of Chamorro culture since the beginning. Some of them just don’t know real food.

Northern Mariana Islands: To be fair, Kansas did tried them.

Guam: Did he liked them though?

Northern Mariana Islands: He said he didn’t like the coconut milk.

Guam: This country, I swear...
