Olympic Fever

Snow

Yes, more updates. What can I say? I seem to be quite motivated to write these little chapters. I have a couple of them ready to be typed and more ideas just coming to me.

Characters in this chapter: Canada, Prussia, Québec, British Columbia

Rating of this chapter: K+-T for mild swearing from Québec. Why yes, he has a very potty mouth.

Summary of this chapter: The fact that the weather in B.C. is quite warm.

Disclaimer: Ugh…

Olympic Fever

Snow

Canada was lounging in his living room with Prussia, Québec and British Columbia. The nation didn't have any real time to see his two kids, since the start of the games; hence he invited them both for lunch. The meal was relatively calm and everyone behaved. Matthew was afraid someone's temper would have clashed with someone else's personality, but lucky for him, none of that happened.

However, now that they were well fed and comfortable with one another, everyone was letting down their polite etiquette and unfortunately; they got talking about the Olympics.

"Aye, tsé tes problèmes de neige là, t'es auraient pas eu si t'avais eu les jeux chez moi. Câlisse, quinze degré Celsius en plein hiver, c't'une vraie joke!"/ "Hey, you know your snow problems, you wouldn't have had them if you had the games at my place. Shit, fifteen degrees Celsius in winter, it's a real joke!" Jean-Pierre said out of the blues. Matthew groaned. He hoped they wouldn't have gotten to this. He knew British Columbia would retort back and Québec was doing this in parts to spite his sister.

"Don't give me that crap. If you wanted them so much, you should have bid more money on them."

"Ta ferme tu ta gueule? T'as-tu vue les températures? Ostie, quel cave va faire des jeux d'hiver à Vancouver? C'comme dire qu'les prochains jeux d'été vont être en Sibérie."/ "Will you shut up? Did you see the weather? Damn, which idiot does winter games in Vancouver? It's like saying the next summer games will be in Siberia."

"Gimme a break, JP, okay? So yeah, a few events were postponed, but it could have happened to you as well, so shut it." Québec smirked deviously. He liked tormenting his family. He did it mostly to tease them and it was also a mark of affection. Even though he didn't always get along with his parental figure, he still cared for them.

"Au moins y'aurait eu d'la neige."/ "At least there would have been snow."

"I'm going to impale you upon your beloved hockey stick if you don't shut up." His sister growled back. Jean-Pierre simply smiled. He didn't mind rough housing with any of his siblings, but Matthew was very fond of his living room and didn't want any harm to come to his children so he intervened.

"Jean, let her go. 'A peut rien faire pour la température. Victoria, please don't impale your brother. Apparently, he's still valuable to his people."/ "…She can't do anything about the weather." Both British Columbia and Prussia laughed at the indirect insult, while the male province fumed. Canada winked at them in return. Jean-Pierre tried to tackle his father, but the older man simply arm locked him.

"I jest, I jest. But you're a century or so shy before you can even think of being able to get one on me, boy." Canada had a big smile on his face that was slightly scary, but the others knew Jean-Pierre wouldn't be harmed, not that Matthew would. When Jean stopped squirming, Matthew released him and patted him on the back.

Once released, he went to pout next to his sister. They stayed a little while longer, before Victoria dragged her brother to the slopes for the afternoon. Matthew and Gilbert bid them goodbye and Canada told them to come again.

When the door was closed, Matthew went to plop himself on the couch next to Gilbert, who pulled him closer the moment his body touched the couch.

"You have the weirdest family, you know that, right?" Prussia told him as he nuzzled his hair.

"Like you're the one to talk. I don't think anyone has a "normal" family."

"Point well taken."

OWARI 7

TO BE CONTINUED

This thing has taken a life of its own… Yes, Québec has one heck of an attitude. So what? Matthew seems a bit out of character, but I think he would be more extraverted around his family and wouldn't let little Québec mess around with him so much. That's how I see it in my head.

I have three more prompts which are ready, a fourth that's half done and about three or so ideas that I haven't done yet. And it's only week one of the Olympics, AHAHAHAAHAHAH!

I do accept anonymous reviews.
