The North American Trio

Interview pt2: Gilbert

Alright let's get this awesome show on the road. Kiku told me that you might come up to me to ask about them so I'm ready when you are.

Let's see who to start with first. Why not Alfred, he is a part of the Awesome trio after all.

Okay being completely honest. When I first meet Alfred I went "this man will go places"

I knew that the moment I saw his drive and willpower to free his people.

He was in the front lines of every battle and was constantly pushing himself to become a stronger and more stable country for his people.

I knew that he would go places. I knew he would rise the ranks. I could tell in the first glance.

Which is why I stuck around to help.

I took everything I said seriously, all of the battle tactics, ways to help soldiers survive harsh winters everything.

I don't think I have ever seen a Nation more willing to risk it all for their people before that moment. He had this drive that no other Nation had matched at the time.

Later after he had gotten his independence I had been one of the few countries to help him.

I had gone over to see what had happened and what I saw was horrifying.

Alfred was split in half, his lower half practically separate from his torso with only pieces of skin and muscle keeping him from completely separating.

He was no joke later either. He rose the ranks quickly. He was stronger,  better, faster than almost any other nation.

Despite that he still stayed with his isolation. Refusing to get into world affairs. And most of the time remaining neutral.

He even helped West out with his country after both world wars and if it wasn't for him I doubt that me and mein awesome family would be together.

Diego I guess is next so let's do him. I don't want to do birdie just yet.

Diego and I have had a close bond since his independence.

I remember when Mexico offered to sell me California way back when.

Man, things would have gone so much differently.

Anyway we always had a bond.

We traded goods and culture and history. His I found quite fascinating.

He was an awesome friend and though we arent as close as we once were. We are still very close and he is one of mein best friends.

Now okay the awesome me wants to speak about Birdie now.

I met him first during the Alfred civil war.

He was secretly helping his brother not as a nation but as a man, Arthur refusing to allow Matthew to help, so Matthew found loopholes.

I refuse to admit that I had a crush on him the first time I saw him, which may or may not have been after he had been working outside cutting wood so he was shirtless and sweaty.

….

Anyway…

We talked every once in a while during that time but we were both busy in different things and it wasn't until after the civil war that we actually had an actual conversation.

We became close friends after that and many at some point you could say we were friends with benefits.

(Mein Gott I can't believe I admitted that.)

Either way we didn't become more than that for a long time.

During both WW1 and WW2 we were pitted against each other and despite being enemies I may or may not have been turned on by how serious and hot he looked out in the battleground.

I didn't like that his troops kept on killing ours and just over all kicking our ass back to Germany.

Alfred of course helping when he finally was brought to the war.

And… Thankfully we lost.

A always told West that his boss at the time was a crazy motherfucker.

Though I sadly admit we didn't actually start dating until 1989 after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Of course this wall way after I had an actual full meal in ages and got to meet up with mein. family.

And now where engaged and I don't really know how it will go from here but it should be good.

I have my hopes up.
