I wrote this oneshot while listening to the Hawaiian Language Moana soundtrack. It's now become my new writing music.

2016

America's father was strange and persistent. Ever since the end of last year, he had been messaging America and the other so-called "favorites," asking them to meet him at his house so he could tell them something important. America had asked some of his other siblings and niblings if they had gotten the invitation, but none of them had, which just made America more curious as to why Britain wanted all of them to meet up.

It had taken a while, but they had finally reached the point where they could all show up at his house at the same time.

"Okay, does anyone have any idea of what is happening?" America asked New South Wales, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, Queensland, and Australia who had arrived before he had. New South Wales shook his head.

"Nah, mate. None of us Australians know shit. Have you asked the Canadians? Or the Kiwi?" America nodded, and New South Wales sighed.

"Why is Grandpa so insistent that we have to be here today at the same time? It's not like he invited any of the other favorites. It's just some Canadians, some Australians, Kiwi, and you." South Australia commented, crossing his arms.

"Maybe he has something he wants to tell all of you at once?" Caleb suggested for the thousandth time. Normally, America would tell him that they have nothing in common that would require them to be here simultaneously, but he didn't want to look insane in front of his family.

"You told the world you had DID ages ago. Why does it matter?" James asked, his voice gentle like aways.

"Yeah, they already know. They ain't gonna think you're crazy," Conch Republic added.

Ignoring the fact that James was right, America began to start small talk with his Australian family as they waited for the invited Canadians and New Zealand to show up.

"Hey guys! Have you figured out why Dad is so insistent on us showing up today?" British Columbia, followed by Newfoundland and Labrador, Manitoba, and Northwest Territories, said as he approached them.

"No, we were waiting for the rest of you since Dad was so insistent that we all show up together," Western Australia said with a small smile.

"He's been a nuisance about that," Tasmania said. Australia wrapped his arm around her shoulder.

"The great British Empire, reduced to begging for his former colonies to come and see him, ain't that right, Tassy?" He said.

"What do you mean, 'former colonies'? If I recall correctly, none of you have left the Commonwealth yet, which means I'm the only true former colony."

"We get it, America. You have an ego," New Zealand said from behind them, finally arriving. Some of America's family members began snickering at that, along with some of the other alters. America rolled his eyes.

"Ha ha, that's so funny. Well, we're all here now. Let's see what Dad wants. I hope it's quick, though, because I have things I need to do," he said.

"Delly said it's okay if you need to miss his pseudo birthday. He knows you fought to get a different date, and it's not like anyone remembers this is his pseudo birthday anyways." Molossia commented.

"Like what, inflate your ego some more?" South Australia asked, causing another round of snickering.

"He probably wants to since we are all attacking it. You can't see how he's trying to say he doesn't have an ego." Queensland said.
