After the cruise
Serbia, Germany and Prussia are visiting DR Congo. He is showing them the view of his capital Kinshasa from the nearby hill. At one moment, Serbia asks Congo to come closer. Prussia observes this snickering. Germany observes the view unimpressed.
"I have to ask you something. Has the guy with white hair questioned you about me?" she asks quietly hiding her mouth with her hand. Congo looks at her confused: "No. Haven't they come to invest in my place?"
Serbia clears her throat and looks left and right: "Not exactly, but that doesn't mean they won't. Listen carefully, Prussia is going to ask you to come with him to show him the works or whatever. You will gladly accept. However, if he asks you anything else that is not related to business, anything personal or about your relationship with me or my former roommates, you stay completely silent. Understand?"
He nods. "I don't understand. Why should it be a secret?"
"What are you two talking about? Are you planning a rendezvous?" Prussia snickers. "How Heavens sake, stop being so nosy and calm down" Germany is heard.
Serbia frowns: "He...has an issue with me. I sort of...punched him. Once."
"Really?" Congo asks.
"Yeah. It was very humiliating for him so he craves for an opportunity to have his revenge. If he even gets a hint of something from your words, he will make me the laughing stock of Europe."
Congo takes another glance at the brothers. Prussia seems to be telling Germany something as they observe the infrastructure. He is sad because he was looking forward to some new investors.
"Don't worry. If all goes according to plan, you may get a huge deal out of it. Trust me, I know how Germany functions" she adds quietly. Congo sighs and nods. They return to the brothers.
"So as you can see..." Congo starts before Prussia interrupts. "Say, is there a place where a man can take a p*ss? I had way to many beers."
"Of course. This way" Congo says and takes him towards some bushes.
Germany and Serbia stay alone. They stay quiet for a while before Serbia breaks the silence: "I helped him build this electric polls. Glad to see they still stand."
"Is that so" Germany says observing them closer.
"Yep" she says proud. "Got to love that YUS standard" she chuckles as Germany nods. After another quiet minute she continues: "Helped other sub-Saharan countries too. My former boss used to spend a lot of time in this region. Especially in Zanzibar and..."
"WHY WON'T YOU SAY ANYTHING!? I DEMAND YOU SHOW IT TO ME! You could at least let me touch your balls" Prussia's scream is heard from the bushes.
"Ah! You are crazy! Leave me alone you perverted European man" Congo's voice follows.
Germany turns pale. DR Congo comes out screaming as Prussia follows him. He is ready to shout out some more profanities when Germany grabs him from behind, putting his hand over his mouth in order to shut him up.
Congo breathes heavily with a sweatdrop on his forehead. "There is no such thing as a mentally stable European, is there?" he says.
Germany holds down the still struggling Prussia. "I'll invest in whatever you want just please don't tell anyone about this" Germany says turning red from embarrassment. Despite his tight grip, Prussia keeps trying to free himself and grab their host by the 'certain' parts.
"Excellent" Congo says happy "I already have a few ideas..." Serbia, who is behind everyone, smiles and gives Congo the thumbs up.
Phrase of the day
The blank white space. The head of chibi Armenia peeps from the edge. He jumps to the center of the frame with a big sign that says 'Save the planet'.
He clears his throat to start: "I would like to announce that my diaspora and me have started a very important project beneficial to everyone. We decided to plant 10 million trees and..."
Sounds of a car coming at great speed are heard. Chibi Armeina jumps back as a ridiculous pointy-roof car comes flying by and stops with a screech. The founded of the Tesla, a man rightfully nicknamed the modern day Edison, takes off his sunglasses and states: "I have decided on my next big project."
Saying this he stand in front of Armenia covering him. "While I was driving in my awesome new car, I though to myself, electric vehicles are great and all but is that enough for the Earth? So I thought about it and it just came to me. Planting trees. What a great idea! With your help, I decided to plant 20 million trees..."
"Hey, that was my idea" Armenia protests from behind. The CEO turns and looks at him confused: "Who are you and since when are you here?"
This annoys the chibi nation. "I was here before you" he says with a vein popping out of his head. "Whatever" the CEO turns and continues telling us about his project.
"Um, I would move if I where you" the narrator finally speaks. The two seem confused. The sound of something heavy falling with great speed makes them look up and scream in terror. The CEO rushes to his car and drives away while Armenia runs off the screen in the nick of time. Numerous, words made of stone fall on the surface cracking it with their weight and quantity. They write: "IF YOU SEE A SUDDEN HYPE BEING BUILT FOR SOMETHING, CHANCES ARE THAT YOU CAN FIND SOMETHING SIMILAR BEING DONE SOMEWHERE ELSE. DON'T BE LAZY, SUPPORT LOCAL EFFORTS.''
A chibi Kenya pops out with a sign that says 'Plant trees'. "Hey, what about me?" he asks offended and moves away.
