The Association of Southeast Asian Nations, or ASEAN for short, was a meeting for Southeast Asian nations to be able to discuss the various affairs concerning government, the environment and other various topics that needed to be authenticated, as well as to offer assistance to their fellow Southeast Asian nation. Or simply, a summit on national growth.
Well, that's how their bosses established it at first.
The Southeast Asian nation personifications are actually closer that the country-status. They knew what it was like to be colonized by the western powers, they knew the troubles of their tropical weather (it has become a reoccurring joke to say that the four seasons are sunny, rainy, sunny and rainy) and they knew what it was like rebuilding everything that the Europeans had pretty much destroyed.
They've re-established their connections with each other, working alongside each other to help their fellow nation in times of trouble, and have attempted to decolonize themselves in order to find the root of their culture. It was a very long, messy and tiresome process, really.
In short, no one messes with the ASEAN meetings. Ever.
"I'm giving you till the count of five of start running" Vietnam growled, tightening her grip on the paddle. America whimpered.
"But I ju-"
"One"
"Uhmm… KuyaAlfred, I think you better start" the Philippines called out from her location. Singapore, who sat next to her, gave an audible sigh and adjusted his glasses.
"Two"
"That's not fair! I just nee-"
"Do you think she'll actually kill him this time?" Cambodia asked no one in particular, Myanmar and Brunei shrugged in response.
"Three"
"Come on! I ju-"
"You know" Indonesia called out "if you waste time complaining, she'll hit you harder"
"Don't be mean, Indonesia" Laos countered, "after all, she'll most likely leave only a few bruises"
"Four"
America was between a rock and a hard place right now, he really, really, really wanted to help them with his heroic stand, but Vietnam's paddle was proving a good argument. But the paddle won the argument and he ran off. Out of the conference room and straight towards the open door at the end of the hallway.
"Five"
Vietnam took off after him, screaming out profanities about "American Yankees" and "not minding their own damned business"
"You know, she cheated" Malaysia commented, slouching further back into the chair, deliberately ignoring the disapproving looks Singapore sent her way "she counted a bit faster after he ran"
"Ana~ it's nice to have family bonding" Thailand beamed.
Author's Note: So it's technically not a study character, but I'm going to say that it's more of an interaction kind of study. Yes, you may shoot me now.
Anyway, I hope I can leave this with you guys for a while, school is starting in a few days, and I unfortunately have been stuck with possibly the worse schedule with teachers that have arguably been sent for the inner pits of Dante Alighieri's version of hell. And that's me being really nice.
Hopefully I wasn't able to spoil any future character studies. And I just have to thank the one anon that gave a lengthy but very amazing review about each character. If I ever do find you in this vast world, I owe you a wonderful rainbow cupcake. Seriously.
I do not own Hetalia, only the OCs that have spawned into my mind.
