The SSLBSSDT – The Society for Submissive Little Brothers to Share Self Defense Tactics

Meeting 1: Our Mission

" Okay, I've called the two of you here today so that we may discus the finer points, tips, and/or tricks to dealing with obnoxious, annoying, and bossy older brothers. Any questions?"

"Ve~ Germany? Can we have pasta for lunch?"

" Sure, whatever. And Feliciano, we are having this meeting as the younger, picked on brothers of the world. We will NOT go by country names here."

"Ve~ Sí, sí Ludwig!"

"Uh, Ludwig?"

"Yes, Matthew?"

"Well, you are Germany, one of the toughest and most aggressive countries in modern history. So why are you here?"

Why was he here? Why had he called a private meeting with Canada and North Italy, two of the least aggressive countries he knew? Because their older brothers were complete asses. Like his was. But, unlike him, they seemed to stay sane although they never resorted to attacking their brothers. With Gilbert, aka the AWESOME Prussia, violence escalated the fights, but violence was the only thing in Ludwig's arsenal. Well, that and making fancy clocks. But that's no help.

So in a last attempt, Ludwig had turned to the two countries in front of him now. He sought their sage wisdom of nonviolent ways to get older brothers out of one's hair and off one's back.

"...Ve~ Ludwig? Ve~ Ludwig? Ve~ Ludwig? Ve~ Lu-"

"WHAT is it, Feliciano?"

"Why are you here?"

He could see no way to get out of it with his dignity, so all that was left was to confess.

" Gilbert won't leave me alone! I try to fight him off, but that seems to encourage him! Both of your older brothers are asses to some degree, no offense, so I thought maybe you two could help me find a nonviolent way to shut him down. It's driving me insane. Will you help me?"

"Ve~ of course!"

"Sure, why not?"

"Thank you both!"

"Ve~ Time for lunch! I brought pasta!"
