Just Read It...

ch.16

France pov

I  believe that things from the past should stay in the past. I mean we are hundreds of years old countries who have fought in wars and routinely face the death of thousands of of own citizens everyday. Of course there are "uncomfortable topics" and we all know that each and everyone of us has things that are basically unspeakable that should probably be addressed but won't be. Because privacy is a very important thing and secondly, anything that we let each other know could and will be used against us in some future event. That is just the way we operate, trust only yourself because alliances are temporary and one moment your government loves each other and the next they hate each other. Poetic I know.

I have many things I would rather some of them not know, but I have always been a fairly open person, maybe something to do with the revolutionaries and free thinking that my country gave to the world. And I have my bad memories that haunt me every night, but I have already confronted them and spoken about what I have learned from them.

So on a surface level this "book of secrets" is a terrible horrendous idea that will lead to terrible horrendous consequences in the long term.

But on the other hand, I really want to know what the hell goes on in all of these fuckers heads. Expessially Russia, he is always standing there with a smile on his face saying the creepiest things I have ever heard, I want to know why he specifically says these things to me. Or why England is still so tied up over things that had happened years ago.

So I am aware that there could be co sequences that are unfavorable fro. This secret spilling session, but the excitement I feel about finding the answers to question I have had for years gives me the initiative to ignore those concerns.

But I feel as if I am the only one, je ne sais quoi?..

Progressing the plot?

I look to my left where america has the book in front of him not even reading it and get up and walk other towards there smiling at the nations as I walk.

"Je pense we should carry on with this non?" I say addressing the room. They all look up at me, they all appear to be in different states of emotion but I can see they all share a certain dread and discomfort. It seeps in the air and feels heavy. The ever smiling Russia to longer smiles and appears to be in thought, I wonder what the often frightening man dreads so much.

Its intrsting that the treat of their secrets being spread could change such stubborn and self assured people into silent ghosts no better then decoration in the room. I guess I must show the initiative and start something like I have many times in history.

"You all look so afraid, I worry you might pass away from the stress. Why don't we just read what is in here and collectively agree not to use anything against each other?" That is a difficult promise to keep.  "I mean we all have terrible historys non?" I decide to add "why worry so much?"

I see them all collectively breath in and ponder it for a moment.

"Yeah I see where your coming from dude" America says looking up "We might as well just read it" He finishes.

Roll credits lmao.

Anyways I see France as one of the more mature nations in the sense of emotions and relationships. Not in the way he acts of course. But I felt like I needed someone to drive the plot forward since I didn't do that before and I felt as if I could believably make France seem like he has come to terms with his issues and the way the world works  I mean French revolution much??

This took a while because I've been super busy with school and I accidentally lost the first draft but thats okay, we are here now .

Peaceeeee
