Ask Nerike and Scotland!
From Pie308:
I would like to know your favorite colors!
Nerike: Blue and yellow, tva. The colors of my country!
Scotland: Blue and white for me. Same reason.
Nerike: Copycat, tva.
Scotland: Hey, we both have blue.
Nerike: Blue looks better with yellow, tva.
Scotland: (rolls eyes) Whatever you say.
From Cinnamon Twisters:
So, Scotland, you're England's bro and stuff. That's cool. What's he like, as
a brother? And what sort of brother-relationship do you have? Do ya pick on
him, or are you overprotective... ew. I hear you picked on him a lot.
Scotland: Ach, I get this a lot. Yeah, I pick on him, the runt. It used to be pretty bad, because he would never man up or anything. It's a lot better now, because we reached a sort of truce. I only do good-natured teasing. (Smiles) As for how he is as a brother, well, he's kind of irritating, really. He drinks a lot of tea and talks like a dafty, but he's an okay guy sometimes. We really have a rollercoaster relationship.
Nerike, you're a province in Sweden... what does that make you, Sweden's
son? That would mean Finland would be your mom, yeah? 'Cause Finland is his
wife and all.
Nerike: Well, yes, I am the son of Sweden, tva. My mother is indeed Finland. Finland is a wonderful mother, tva, if a bit overbearing at times.
Tva is a verbal tic, right? How's that pronounced?
Nerike: (blushes)
Scotland: Awww, look, you embarrassed him.
Nerike: Yes, yes, I talk funny, tva. It is a verbal tic of mine. Pronunciation is like its spelled here, (tuvah) with a short, almost silent u.
And what do you think of Swedish fish?
Nerike: I love them, tva! Not as good as lox, though. If they were fish-flavored, they'd be better, tva.
Scotland: Oh, right, make them even grosser.
Nerike: Be quiet, Mr. Deep-Fried Mars Bar.
From Sam:
Oye, Scotland, what do you think of your brother, England?
(Author's Note: Yes, I already did this, but Sam asked me at school and it was all written up, so I had to.)
Scotland: Och, this again? We made up at the end, so I have no hard feelings, only a healthy rivalry. (Winks)
Nerike: Translation: He likes to bicker, but not the baggage involved, tva.
Scotland: I'd be mad at you right now if that weren't so true. He's such a wimp, though, I beat him so easily.
Nerike: Riiight, tva.
