He was like a scary teddy bear.
All mean and creepy looking just waiting to hurt you if you turn your back to it. That was always the thought anyways. It was just so creepy that you would think it would be evil. That it wasn't made to hold. But, then the realization comes.
It's a teddy bear and made specifically as a teddy bear. It's rather strange to think about it,but that's what it was. Not a doll to put in a glass case or do horrific voodoo with. No,it is a teddy bear.
Made to hold and made for cuddles and hugs. Made for sleeping with at night to protect you from the monsters. Made for telling secrets and having conversations in the day.
That its job;that's its purpose.
It's an old teddy bear at that isn't it? And maybe because of that it's not its fault its scary.
It was probably made to look scary and a little creepy. Or, maybe someone never took great care of it and it turned scary. Teddy bears do tend to get hurt. Damaged by their owners roughness or forgetfulness that sometimes they're left in the rain or snow.
Sometimes they get hurt so bad stuffing comes out and they must have stitches. Sometimes their color gets faded with age and lack of care. Then what happens to the teddy bear?
Then it comes to look like a scary teddy bear.
Who then no one wants to play with anymore. Who gets sad and lonely,because no one wants to tell secrets or have conversations anymore with it. No one wants to hold or cuddle it and say 'I need you' or 'you're my best friend.'
No one to love it.
"Is there something you would like to say to me?"
America piped up and looked around to see all the nations packing their papers away and then turned back to Russia who was across from him. He must have stared at him throughout the meeting.
"Do I have to repeat myself?" Russia asked a little annoyance in his voice.
"Oh sorry dude I was just thinking just how much you're like a scary teddy bear." America replied nonchalant as some of the nations around turned to stare and listen.
"Um pardon?" Russia was just a little confuse by that. A scary teddy bear?
"Yeah like scary teddy bears look scary,but they just want some cuddles and hugs ya know? It's not their fault. Kinda would want one now."
And with that America finished packing and left. Leaving some rather confused and intrigued nations behind.
