Water poured out of the water fountain as I remain calmly sitting in the expansive estate of Roderich Edelstein. Being here over a week, I've kindly taken into account that there was almost nothing that the aristocratic nation didn't spend high dollar (or euro in his case) on. His carpets were the richest fibers, the fabrics were only the finest of leather and taste, the wood was the most luscious of colors; the only thing he didn't go out and just spend endless amounts of money on was his clothing.
In that case, he actually just patched things up again and again. As long as it looked nice.
Oh yes, even his twin sister was high class…
"Ugh, I hate Chopin…" Pulling my gaze from yet another beautiful fountain on the property, I met the gaze of Miss Hungary in confusion.
"Hmm?"
She motioned towards the house and shook her head, "if you need to know anything at all about Mr Austria in there and his sister; it's that their anger is apparently Chopin. If you hear it, something is bothering them."
I frowned, eyes wide, "why Chopin?"
"He thinks the man was Austrian or something. I really don't care. Liszt was a far better composer in my opinion."
"Do all nations represent themselves with music?"
"Uh…" Hungary tucked a lock of hair behind her ear and thought about it. "I prefer listening to some Hungarian marches if I get a little upset, but I wouldn't know about anyone else- AH! Austria!" The woman called out to the short brunette walking out of the manor.
Austria paused and walked over, "Eliza, I realize you want my attention, but the yelling is unnecessary. Now if you would be so kind as to excuse me, I must beg your pardon and meet with an acquaint-"
"This young lady would like to know what other nation's listen to in various moods." Hungary pushed me forward and I grimaced a bit.
Hastily, I waved my hands in front of me and smiled, "I really don't need to know that much but-"
"Come along then, we can chat in the solarium. I'm in a bit of a rush."
Before realizing what was occurring, the woman half dragged/half walked me to the house and down several corridors until we reached the double doors of the sun room. Upon the door being opened, a mess of silver hair met us both and Austria was more or less knocked to the floor.
"You're late, Aus!"
"I know, Julchen. I know. Hungary is outside and wanted to have a long discussion over who knows what."
The silverette snickered and whipped her hair back, remaining on top of the Austrian. "You tell her that you were meeting with the most awesome nation of all time?"
"No, I told her I was meeting with one of the most arrogant, egotistical women of all time."
"Aw~ Aus. You flatter me." The woman looked over and frowned, "who's the little follower?"
I coughed, "sorry. I was with Miss Hungary and had a question about you nations."
"Question?"
Austria sighed, "I suppose if you are quick, you may ask."
"Now, now, Austria." The female personification of Prussia stood up and wrapped an arm around my shoulders, "she clearly wants my awesome answers since I am full of the wisdom of countless centuries of awesome, brilliant leaders."
"Clearly…"
I bit my lip and looked up at her, "I was wondering what other nations have music that they play or listen to when they're feeling different emotions."
The women both smirked a bit.
"Ah, a music question."
"Kesesesese~ no wonder she came to us." Julchen cocked her head a bit, "Aus and I listen to only the most awesome of music when we're in a good mood."
"Really?"
Austria nodded, "we don't always listen to classical music or chamber music. Have you heard of Sellyy?"
"Who?"
The duo stared at me in shock.
"…She… doesn't know who Sellyy is?"
Julchen's face slowly grew a grin to match a Cheshire cat and her crimson eyes flickered to the brunette woman. "You know we have to play some music now."
"Naturally. Who kind of child would not have heard of the woman? Honestly, it is rather obtuse! She's staying here in Austria for heaven's sake." The duo grabbed me and pulled me into the room.
"Do you at least know Blumchen?"
"Uh…" I hunched over a bit in apology and they gaped.
"We're playing the music now."
"I completely agree."
Before even a full minute had passed, instruments littered the room and the duo were playing.
"Nur in der Nacht
Zeig ich mein wahres Wesen
Nur in der Nacht
Fühl ich mich auserlesen
Nur in der Nacht
Werd ich mich neu erfinden
Nur in der Nacht
Kann ich im Nichts verschwinden
Nur in der Nacht
Lausch ich der stille Frieden
Nur in der Nacht
Möcht ich die Sehnsucht lieben
Wenn alles schläft, kann ich erwachen
Im Dunkeln vergehn, im Feuer entfachen
Wenn alles schläft, kann ich erblühen
Ich atme mich frei, will die Ewigkeit fühlen
Es ist still um mich
Ich hör nur innerlich
Es ist still um mich
Ich sehe ins schwarze Licht
Nur in der Nacht
Erwache ich zum Leben
Nur in der Nacht
Kann ich mich schamlos geben
Nur in der Nacht
Fühl ich mich sanft geborgen
Nur in der Nacht
Werde ich neu geboren
Wenn alles schläft, kann ich erwachen
Im Dunkeln vergehn, im Feuer entfachen
Wenn alles schläft, kann ich erblühen
Ich atme mich frei, will die Ewigkeit fühlen
Es ist still um mich
Ich hör nur innerlich
Es ist still um mich
Ich sehe ins schwarze Licht
Alles, alles schläft
Friedlich, unerregt
Alles, alles still
Uh, uh
Wenn alles schläft, kann ich erwachen
Im Dunkeln vergehn, im Feuer entfachen
Wenn alles schläft, kann ich erblühen
Ich atme mich frei, will die Ewigkeit fühlen
Es ist still um mich
Ich hör nur innerlich
Es ist still um mich
Ich sehe ins schwarze Licht"
In a brief pause, the duo panted and Julchen's laughter filled the room. "Oh~ That was AWESOME!"
"Quite…"
"We need to just jam to awesome music like this all the time."
"There's nothing really-"
"GOTT VERDAMMT! PRUSSIA!" The roar of one angry Mr. Austria rang through the manor and Miss Austria sighed.
"I'll see you later, Julchen."
"Mhmm." Miss Prussia darted forward and grabbed me. "Come on you. I'll give you some tips on some good music that will cure you of this musical negligence."
"What?" Over the windowsill, we flew across the spacious yard as the figure of Mr. Austria came running into the solarium and began an civil argument with Miss Austria in the house.
Julchen laughed evilly, "I don't know what the hell my twin sees in that man. Although he is extremely sexy when pissed…"
I didn't bother to comment, just running as fast as I could to keep pace with the woman.

A/N: Hey peeps! I had this idea. Chopin is Austria's anger… what is everyone else's? I have ideas. Recommendations are to be placed with the reviews, I guess… I'm stoked about this. I figure the music for their other moods work too.
Sellyy is a musician from Austria. She writes some kinda dark sounding music. I figured it was more Fem Austria's music. Prussia works well with her music too. XD
I own myself. Thanks. ^^' We can have one OC I suppose. As long as there's no nation going "OMG! I LOVE THAT WOMAN!" NEIN! That will not be happening. I'm just there to ask all the nations about their music. That's it. –bows-
English Translation for Alles Schlaft (the song Prussia and Austria sing):
"Only at night
I reveal my true nature
Only at night
I feel chosen
Only at night
I'll reinvent myself
Only at night
I can vanish in nothingness
Only at night
I listen to the quiet peace
Only at night
I want to love desire
When everything sleeps, I can awaken
Fade in darkness, ignite in the fire
If everything sleeps, I can blossom
I breath myself free, want to feel eternity
It's quiet around me
I listen inwardly
It's quiet around me
I see into the black light
Only at night
I come alive
Only at night
I can act shameless
Only at night
I feel gently safe and secure
Only at night
I am reborn
When everything sleeps, I can awaken
Fade in darkness, ignite in the fire
If everything sleeps, I can blossom
I breath myself free, want to feel eternity
It's quiet around me
I listen inwardly
It's quiet around me
I see into the black light
Everything, everything sleeps
Peaceful, calm
Everything, everything quiet
Uh, uh
When everything sleeps, I can awaken
Fade in darkness, ignite in the fire
If everything sleeps, I can blossom
I breath myself free, want to feel eternity
It's quiet around me
I listen inwardly
It's quiet around me
I see into the black light"
