Negotiations have been completed!

I'M BACK BITCHES

Did you miss me?

So I managed to convince my parents to let me online more often, though I've been sneaking on and off for a while beforehand (not that any of you saw anything RIGHT? >> ) and thus I am back, 6 days earlier than previously thought. 8D

*gets back to writing Family Ties*

Wtf, I was just going to update the map and comment. I mean honestly, I was opening the file when I got a notif.

\o/ Yaaay~

[identity profile] hellzabeth.livejournal.com 2010-06-16 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
\o/ That's why I tagged it with Family Ties; so everyone knows I'm back. Though it's kind of like I didn't leave. Hahaha orz.

D: Oh my. What were the terms of these negotiations?

[identity profile] hellzabeth.livejournal.com 2010-06-16 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
That I'd better get a bloody good grade or else.

Also I've got more limited time on here, at least until my last exam, but that won't make much of a difference to my update schedule.

Awww. D: When's your last exam? And are you actually even worried about that class?

Because I generally never studied for exams I wasn't worried about while my mom was like "... well as long as you keep pulling good grades."

And I'd be all like (^_^)b *goes to play neopets*

[identity profile] hellzabeth.livejournal.com 2010-06-16 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Last exam is on the 24th. And no, I was never worried about it. I'm never worried about any of my exams usually. My parents are the ones trying to instill the fear of them in me. I usually pass them anyway.

Back in school I never studied. Ever. Not even for my GCSE Qualifications. I got 4 As, an A*, four Bs and a C (in Spanish. DAMN YOU SPAIN) even without that.

Lol ditto. Oh those days when I played Neopets... I even had a baby Aisha...

[identity profile] lovelylurker.livejournal.com 2010-06-16 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Lol parents. "FEAR SCHOOL OR ELSE!"

*shakes fist at Spain with you* I got a C in my advanced Spanish grammar class. Did not understand it at all.

Neopets was awesome. I had a faerie xweetok and a pirate lupe *shot* But then they did weird stuff to it and I quit (that and it got boring).

I don't play it anymore either. xD Now I play subeta cause it's awesome.

[identity profile] hellzabeth.livejournal.com 2010-06-16 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Me: "WHY IT'S EASY"
Parents: "IT WAS NEVER EASY FOR US SO IT CAN'T BE EASY FOR YOU"
Me: =___=

I didn't pay any attention in Spanish. My interest had switched to Japanese by that point. And thus I failed dismally. Well, nearly failed. D grade is basically a fail over here. Nobody accepts you if you have one.

I always wanted a faerie neopet! I got the baby paintbrush by sheer chance on a random event. I probably couldn't go back to it now, it's all so different. /old-timer was there when it first opened

Subeta?

[identity profile] lovelylurker.livejournal.com 2010-06-16 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
www.subeta.net

It's all the things that neopets USED to be, when it was fun, without all the freezing and child orientation (seeing as they have stripper themed items for your Human avatar).

*gets out sales voice*

Subeta, the best pets site on the net. You can create pets, edit their profiles, give them their own pets, change them into different colors, make art for them (overlays), battle them, RP on the forums, buy/sell art/graphics, collect more than 12,000 items (not kidding), make a human avatar which is basically like a blank doll that you can play dress up with. There are more than 9000 wearable items (really not kidding), and participate in events and gain achievements. Oh and the shoutbox is completely effing insane.

Also you don't get in trouble for profane language, just don't post porn or naked pics of people. It's awesome. XD

I think they might be coming back.

[identity profile] hellzabeth.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 12:17 pm (UTC)(link)
This one came pretty quick so I guess so. I suppose some are just lagging still. :|

[identity profile] a-thousandyears.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 12:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I got the notif for that one 15 minutes late, which is still a better lag time than four hours so let's count it as a victory.

[identity profile] hellzabeth.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 12:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Some of my notifs were almost a day late. Though that might be because I went to bed. >>

This one was about 10 minutes.

Awww I love you Aussie!

Once you take over the world you'll just have to convince England that he loves you too.

Oh God, yandere Australia. I want it so badly.

Love me, England, love only me I'm your favourite right Let's be together forever and ever and ever and always forever just us and everyone and everyone will be happy and all you have to do is love me the most

[identity profile] always-tea-time.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 01:08 pm (UTC)(link)
The more I think about it the more terrifyingly fascinated I am by it.

Good god Australia, what's gotten into you?! [Time to back up, methinks. Ah, but there's a wall there. Uh oh.] I-I try not to have favourites, you know that.

[identity profile] withgoldensoil.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 01:12 pm (UTC)(link)
It makes me sad because I know it is never going to happen. Though he does get a bit clingy over his neighbours. Much to Fiji's dismay.

Always always always together always, England, like you wanted alwaysalwaysalwaysalwaysalways [Puts his hands on the wall, one on either side of England to prevent escape.]

[identity profile] always-tea-time.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 01:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Aussie's actually quite sane. You know. History wise. Oddly. Despite his heritage. Btw if I do write the fic can you help me with Aussie's international relations?

Australia, please calm down for a second. [This expression is commonly referred to as "deer in the headlights" or "oh nutbunnies."]

[identity profile] withgoldensoil.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 01:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Eh, he's got his own fair share of drama. Most of it's just internal or confined to the Pacific though, and then NOTHING can match the batshit that goes down in Europe and Asia so yeah. But he is fairly chill, comparitively speaking. He usually only invades his neighbours when they ask him to. I would love to, seriously, so much head canon for the Pacific region, you have no idea.

I'm perfectly calm, pom, I just want our family to be . Don't you want that too?

[identity profile] always-tea-time.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 01:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I know literally zilch about Pacific history and feel this must be remedied. They ask Aus to invade? As a peace keeper? Good because I've just started. How's his relations with Fiji? Are there any two troublemakers under his jurisdiction? Who's likely to start a fight that he has to break up? /quickfire questions.

I- well, of course, but- [Not if you're going to get all crazy on me, boy. He was kind of almost there about being resigned to being a very tiny world power.]

[identity profile] withgoldensoil.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 01:44 pm (UTC)(link)
OKAY ALL OF THIS IS GOING BY MEMORY I WILL GIVE MORE ACCURATE STUFF LATER: Usually, yeah. We tend to give a lot of our neighbours tons of aid and leave it at that, but when trouble goes down we occasionally go over with the army to act as peace keepers. One of the main things I remember about that was East Timor in... 2006, I think? They were having troubles getting their elections under control and so Australia and a few other members of the Pacific Islands Forum intervened. Fiji is pissed off at Australia right now, because Australia kicked him out of the Forum (well, it was a group thing but yeah) and then later he got booted out of the Commonwealth, because the military gov in charge of him refuses to hold democratic elections. He accused Australia of being a "bully" or something like that and last I heard he was accusing Australia and New Zealand of spying on him. I can't remember if it was wire tapping, normal espionage, or what but it was something like that.

If we're talking Australia's jurisdiction, he'd probably intervene with anyone in the Forum who got in trouble, as well as Indonesia. And then there's always Malaysia and Singapore, he has that defense agreement with them, NZ and England (and if I remember correctly, Malay and Singapore fight sometimes because originally Malaysia wanted Singapore to be one with her). Papua New Guinea and Nauru are his babies though, they were his "trusted territories" for most of the 20th Century. Nauru hated him for a while, because he was a loving but fail fail fail parent and they only recently reconciled. As for anyone starting a fight... Indonesia is the big power after him and NZ and she sometimes gets a bit tiffy with Papua and East Timor, if I remember correctly. Papua New Guinea and Indonesia have border disputes sometimes, and East Timor only got his independence from her in 2002 after she occupied him in 1976 (with Australian and American backing, because the independent East Timor gov apparently had commie help?!?! I'm not 100% sure on the details there). So there's that.

ummmm what else am I forgetting. Obviously anyone who lays a hand on New Zealand will get a smackdown, but no one's dumb enough to try that. She's also likely to follow him wherever he may go, her gov tends to put a lot of emphasis on trans-Tasman friendship, but she might try to talk him out of anything drastic.

NO WAIT it wasn't the Forum that intervened in East Timor in 2006. It was Australia, Malaysia, New Zealand and Portugal. East Timor used to be a Portugese colony if Uncle Port's presence sounds really random.

[identity profile] always-tea-time.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 02:06 pm (UTC)(link)
*makes sure to reference this stuff*

I knew about East Timor being Port's, but most of this stuff is new to me. Apart from the fact that Aus will kill anyone trying to go after NZ. That's just... duh.

[identity profile] withgoldensoil.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Hurray~ Let me know if you need me to ramble at you anymore.

Luckily, it doesn't look like anyone would have any reason to go after her. Besides us, I mean. The only thing you'd accomplish is getting a shit load of sheep and piss off the entire region. Unless you're Japan and you want her ocean reserves in which case I guess there's temptation but damn is it really worth it?

[identity profile] always-tea-time.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 02:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I assure you I will. ^^

... LOTR nerds might form an army and try to take her over? /shot Japan, dude, just... stop with the fish thing already. Seriously.

[identity profile] withgoldensoil.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Especially if it's about his precious little princess Papua New Guinea or baby Nauru. sob he's such a fail dad but I love it all the same.

I think even the New Zealand army could handle an army of Tolkien nerds. Maybe. Stop making me use this icon, Japan, stop stop stop!

Awww Aussie did you inherit the fail parental skills? Don't worry, just make up for it with LOOOOVE <3

But. They have swords. And arrows. And Oliphants. Japan: iie. /OMNOMNOMNOM

[identity profile] withgoldensoil.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 02:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Lots and lots of love. Most of it for Papua, the cute one, but when he remembers Nauru exists he loves him too, for all his bitter, money laundering ways...

... Good point, Australia better get over there with the air force quick.

[identity profile] always-tea-time.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
D'aww, Aussie's a doting dad. Or just as much a failparent as Iggy, but well, when you grow up with examples like that... at least he keeps it on a smaller scale?

Amd take over New Zealand. Just in case.

[identity profile] withgoldensoil.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 03:09 pm (UTC)(link)
He grew up thinking "I-it's not like I care about you or anything! Stupid! Idiot! I'm just doing this for my own sake, I hate you!" was a normal sign of affection. What more do you want from him?

Just to make sure she's safe and everything. Yeah.

...Why in the world did anyone let England spawn? France or Holland should have raised you Aussie. orz

Mmm hmm. And then we'll just... add her to the Australian Empire. When nobody's looking.

[identity profile] withgoldensoil.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Something tells me Holland wouldn't have been any better...

Let's get married, New Zealand, and then maybe no one will notice my ever expanding empire until it's too late you can be the Hungary to my Austria except I'm not a total sook it's perfect.

[identity profile] always-tea-time.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
.... or France. Poor dear, you were doomed from the start weren't you?

That is an incredibly appealing concept. WHY IS YANDERE AUSSIE SO ATTRACTIVE?!

[identity profile] withgoldensoil.livejournal.com 2010-06-18 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Because Aussie is always attractive! And also because his crush on New Zealand is totally canon, I've been reading survey analysis all day saying so.

But to be honest, if he did start an empire, I kinda see him falling into it by accident. Like "Okay, guys, I'm gonna stick around here to make sure you don't cause any trouble and- oh hey what the hell are your neighbours doing- listen, guys, I'm helping them- OH SCREW IT I'LL JUST INVADE EVERYONE!" but all with the aim of protecting them and then he slowly gets all messed up and yandere and so on. And New Zealand's just in the background going "h-hey, calm down..."
