Paul Pool
The awesome ex-Kingdom of Prussia or more commonly known as Gilbert Beilschmidt was sitting in front of an aquarium in Germany. He had flown here special just to come and see this special creature that had been all the rage for a while now. At first, Gilbert had been ecstatic for the most part of what his special friend had been predicting. But now, now he wasn't sure anymore.
The octopus had apparently chosen his friend Antonio's team over his and his brother's and he wasn't going to stand for this. Not now and not ever.
"Listen, up here, pallie, I am awesome. You hear that? I am a living, breathing and beautiful awesome man and people such as I, even though we are few, do not lose. Ever. Well, okay, sometimes, but you get the point. I hope for your sake that you're wrong, or else I know a few good recipes for fried squid and I wouldn't mind a grilled octopus salad either." For all answer, the octopus simply swam about in his aquarium, impervious to what was going on outside. Prussia was not amused that he was being ignored by such a being.
"Don't play coy with me! I know your little games and charades. You think you're all smart and all since you predicted all of those games accurately, well I have news for you, buddy, we're unstoppable! We're awesome AND WE WILL NOT LOSE! YOU HEAR THAT PAUL, THE FINALS ARE BETWEEN GERMANY AND NETHERLANDS!" Gilbert had gotten up by now and he had his two hands and face splayed on the tank. Paul the octopus continued swimming about and completely ignoring the man before him.
"GODDAMNIT! STOP IGNORING ME! LOOK AT ME WHEN THE AWESOME ME TALKS TO YOU AND GRACES YOU WITH HIS PRESENCE! I DEMAND TO BE LOO-"
"Gilbert? What are you doing? Why are you talking to a fish tank?" Gilbert turned around quickly to find his lover, Matthew Williams, standing by the doorway and staring at him quizzically. The Prussian could feel his cheeks flush with embarrassment and tried to shrug it off.
"Euh, that wasn't me, Mattie, I was just, eum, looking at this really awesome fish here!" The said awesome fish swam by and squirted ink in Prussia's general direction. Canada started to laugh.
"Sh-shut up! This isn't funny!" Gilbert tried to defend himself, but failed miserably and that only made Matthew laugh harder.
"Don't tell me you're worried about tomorrow's game and that you believe in this octopus' prediction? That's kind of "not-awesome" as you would put it."
"Hey! Don't insult Paul! I value his opinion!" Gilbert said and Matthew continued chuckling.
"Hmm, how about you start believing in Canadian luck and fortune telling instead?" Canada stepped closer and wrapped his arms around Prussia's neck. In response, the Prussian placed his arms around the younger man's waist and pulled him close.
"I could try, but I'll need some convincing." Matthew smirked.
"Oh, I can be convincing…" With that said, the two of them left the museum with Paul the octopus wondering why there were strange shaped objects in his tank.
