England was always a prickly person. He didn't show his emotions easily and when he did, he was almost always angry.

Take the last world meeting, for instance.

"This is ridiculous!" Germany said. "You are all overreacting."

France rolled his eyes. "I think I am being perfectly reasonable."

"Reasonable? Your entire country is shut down!" England pointed out.

He shrugged. "So? Italy's country is shut down, too."

"Don't bring Italy into this," Germany snapped.

"Vee~ Pasta!" was the only response from Germany's boyfriend.

Canada meekly raised his hand. "I think it's good to slow the progress of the disease. The elderly, infants, and immunocompromised are very vulnerable, so-"

"Oh, shut up, Canda. No one cares what you have to say," Mexico snapped.

America gasped. "Don't talk to my brother like that! You officially have given me a reason to declare war on you. Also, I don't want any more of your exports."

China rolled his eyes. "America, you can't just declare war whenever you're offended."

"Besides, your people would have a fit if they didn't get avocados," Mexico pointed out.

He huffed. "Fine. But I'm going to glare at you for the rest of the meeting."

"Ah, yes. Glaring. Even more offensive than the literal fifteen-meter wall along your southern border. You've hurt my feelings greatly, America."

"Joke's on you because I don't know what a meter is," America returned, looking very proud of himself.

"Oh, for heaven's sake, America. You and your imperial system," England complained. "It's equivalent to a yard-"

America waved his boyfriend off. "Yeah, yeah, whatever. I like inches."

"Why are you such an insufferable brat?" England hissed. "God, you spend every meeting talking about yourself and pretending that the rest of us don't have problems and sticking your nose in everyone else's business and damaging the environment with your stupid-"

"I'm not listening," America stated. But he was, in fact, listening.

The European shook his head. "I give up. Fine. Just sit there and pout like a petulant child."

"Can we get back to what this meeting was actually about?" China asked, annoyed. Back in his prime, he never had to go to unproductive meetings. He just did whatever he wanted. Being old sucked.

"I agree with China," Japan interjected. "We need to discuss the COVID-19. There have already been over 6,500 deaths and our children aren't even getting an education right now."
