"the internet killed the video star "
[インターネットがビデオスターを殺した]
an aph facebook fanfiction
DISCLAIMER:
Don't own Hetalia. You should already be well aware of that.
I also don't own the title. I got that from the song "The Internet Killed the Video Star".
Not much else to say, except enjoy.
[TigerViking7] LOL, Excellent guess. Although it's Winter, not White. General Winter: I'm not Snow White. -_- ... Well, you're pretty darn close... skin as white as snow, lips as red as the rose, we just need to invest in some hair-dye and... General Winter: [/glares] NO. ... Maybe not. You did just get your beautiful hair cut short. That's traumatic enough.
[Meso the Hanyu] AWESOME. I must use that as a group. The awesome quartet. ... Well, darn Amelia. What group aren't you and Gilbert in? Amelia F. Jones: ... I'm not in that Italian love thingy. Oh right, no you're not. Well, it makes perfect sense for her not to answer in English... Feli hates England. Unless, you ship the Angel Pair, which I know plenty of people who do. ... A savannah monitor lizard? Amelia F. Jones: OMG those things are SO BA! I want one... but Mattie's scared of them for SOME reason. ... Maybe because she doesn't like lizards? It's perfectly natural. I don't either. I do roleplay, although I haven't done much of it lately because my favorite roleplaying site has been overrun by noobs. It ticks me off so much... And you didn't really miss that. I added her in that chapter. ^_^ But there's your Egypt!
[Lydiacatfish] You were never stupid, silly. My puzzles are kind of hard when they're not MINDBLOWINGLY easy or impossible because of the freaking translator. I know, right? I love Romania. Love, love, LOVE. And I hate that there isn't enough fanart for him, although the whole 2P! craze going around is making it a little easier to find stuff for him... Remus Anghelescu: [/waves] I don't get it, I'm not crazy... nu complet... :P
[Demigod1315] Nikita scares everyone. Well, the only one you really have to remember is Imelda... she's the only one who stays. And Leticia may show up once or twice more, but that's really it. I just used them as backstory for Imelda... And no problem. Vietnam will make a guest appearance in a conversation with Jeanette before her initial appearance with Seychelles next chapter. Just like how Valentino kind of appeared in this one?
[Of Fishing and Ever Afters] Yeah, I know... I don't copy-paste the accent symbols unless I forgot how to spell the name/word. For example, Feliks' and Tino's names have all of the symbols on theirs in earlier chapter, but not in the latest ones because I learned how to spell it, and I know how to spell those Spanish words, so I just type them. I should probably break that habit, since you're not the first person to notice it. Thanks for telling me, regardless, and you weren't a buzzkill at all. And yes! I'm glad you liked the new chapter and I'm sorry for not updating, I really am...
[4evaFranify] You're not the only person who has stayed up reading this, and I've kept myself awake due to a good fanfiction several times, so I feel you. No, she isn't. Maybe because she's TOO independent and abrasive and in control? You can only handle so much of it. Don't know about Mattie does it, she lives with the girl... Matilda Williams: Easy. Patience, a calm demeanor and earbuds. Excellent strategy! Works on any annoying sibling! (It truly does. I have two.)
[Alice Barden] It's fine! At least you got it. Fortunately for you, I'm a wimp at killing off other's characters. I can't do it, it feels very cruel to me and I don't feel as if I'm worthy to do so. My own... different story. I can slaughter my own left and right and not care. Makes me wonder if something's wrong with me...
[Map of The Stars] I know, right? [/chuckles] I love the guy, he's adorable. And ha. I actually found some decent fem!Cuba artwork, although yeah, she WOULD be kind of scary. She'd be like Korra from LoK. And I'm doing that, because I've had several requests for Brynja/Amelia. Americe for the win, baby. And lol, nope. Can't just tell you, it's too easy. But I am really happy you picked up on that, and next time you review, please, spill me your theories I want to hear them. They sound tres interesting~ Chernenko Braginski: ... Don't give her ideas on making our lives hell. Please don't.
[Lalliley] General Winter: I'm not violent... Destructive force just solves my problems. People dropping dead solves my problems. People suddenly turning up dead solves my problems. I can't help that my life is complicated and requires radical decisions. And I have a therapist actually. He's free and lives with me. Gen, your brother doesn't count. General Winter: Yes he does, he's very theruputic. Besides my therapy is solving the problem, and if that's how it wants to be solved, that's how it's going to be solved... ;) Oh, and about Ameripan... at the time this fic takes place, Ameripan is a past pairing: it's already happened. But I can totally throw in some fanservice for you. :) It's a really sweet pairing, even if it's not one of my absolute favorites. And it's partially canon in the Nyotalia universe, apparently Fem!Japan has some sort of complicated yearning for Nyo!America. Word for word from Hima-papa's notes too.
[andthenshesaid] o_o Sorry for the headache. You don't have to keep track of all of them, they were to provide backstory: although they may return... I'm considering having Leticia play Facebook messager like Antonio did this arc since next time they go to the Bonnefoy House Toni's going back. Or possibly Raquel. It's a work in progress, I'll have to think about it. Amelia F. Jones: That's my job! Be awesome and make y'all laugh. :D
[SlyFoxofPeanutButter] Well, y'know how some phone can act as the wireless hotspot? Yeah. That phone is Gilbert's. That's why they have wi-fi in an abandoned house, although the house is kept up and used as a museum now, it's a bit out of the way and not many people know about it. It's a pretty decent secret... until Antonio found it. And yeah, pretty much. It's like having walkie-talkies but... it's your phone instead. It's so that way they can keep with each other, although honestly they could have just texted for that.
[Harry Potter] Maiken Bondevik: ... I can't believe I almost thought you were Harry Potter for a second... I really did. Andersen is rubbing off on me, stupid asshole. Yes, that's a mistake to be fixed... Dalca has a LOT of things she needs to go back and fix, actually.
[I Shall Bite Ya] Wow, thanks a lot. Stupid Google Translate. _ I will totally edit, grazie. I have a TON of editing to do. Well, to be honest, my favorite Bad Touch Trio character is Spain because in my Hetalia group I'm Fem!Spain. But I totally see why you'd think it would be Gilbert, I give him some serious spotlight. That'll be toned down a bit next arc, it's more about Jeanette and Antonio than Gilbert in that one. Ah, thank you! I tried to be completely serious about the first ones, and then I realized that some of Himaruya's canon names have some little flaws to them: like Vargas is a Spanish last name, Toris is used in Lithuania, but it's more widely used as a dog's name, and Braginski has a Polish root, to be truly Russian, it should be Braginsky with a y. So, I think I've started to take up on some of those habits... like Remus for example. It's a Romanian name, both part ares, but Remus is a name more popularly associated with wolves and Anghelescu means "angel". He's obviously neither.
[pengirl100and2] As long as you like it, I'm happy!
(I think that's every review I haven't yet gotten to... I hope...)
chapter thirty-two :: two-faced lovers [miku hatsune]
- saturday, september 6th
Peter Kirkland is now friends with Valentino Vargas.
(Mobile) Peter Kirkland || Valentino Vargas: How long have you had a Facebook?!
Valentino Vargas: Um... about two weeks?
Peter Kirkland: ... I am so pissed at you.
Valentino Vargas: Peter~... why?!
Peter Kirkland: BeCAUSE you added a bunch of random girls before ME! Seriously! You added that Spanish guys' cousins!
Valentino Vargas: Aren't they hot though? Especially the Brazilian one. ;D
Peter Kirkland: Uh-huh, sure are. XD But. Noooooo. THAT'S BESIDE THE POINT, VAL. DX
Peter Kirkland: Look at your friends list! You added TAMARA. I DON'T LIKE TAMARA.
Peter Kirkland: And O-M-G. You added Sascha-Gero before me too! Vallllll...
Valentino Vargas: Don't be jealous, Petey... I'm like my brothers, I like pretty women. It's my weakness. The Kyptonite to my Superman. The porn to my wild teenage hormones.
Valentino Vargas: And Sascha-Gero doesn't count! He's a manly man.
Peter Kirkland: -_- LE SIGH. That is the worst excuse EVER.
Peter Kirkland: And I AM manlier than Sascha-Gero and would be even if I pranced around in a fucking tutu and a tiara and BRAIDED MY HAIR.
Peter Kirkland: He braids his hair, man!
Valentino Vargas: Oh... don't be like that... come on Petey. You'll always be my PK Love!
Peter Kirkland: Gyah... Earthbound references... Must. Resist. Adorable. Nickname...
Valentino Vargas: Because you are the WIND BENEATH MYYYYYYY WINGSSSSSS!
Peter Kirkland: Uh-uh. Still resisting.
Valentino Vargas: Oh, I'm addicted to you~ Insert random Spanish here... Baby, I'm addicted to you~ Insert more random Spanish here!
Peter Kirkland: Really, Val? Shakira?
Valentino Vargas: Simple and clean is the WAY you'll be making me feel~... TONIGHT~!
Peter Kirkland: AW MAN. You know I can't resist Kingdom Hearts... :(
Peter Kirkland: And WHY are you serenading me via Facebook anyway? Seriously?
Valentino Vargas: Because I can. You're not still mad at me, right?
Peter Kirkland: Nah... Y'know I can't stay mad at you. [/hugs]
Valentino Vargas: [/hugs] ^.^
Hendrik van der Meer has shared a video on his wall.
(Mobile) Hendrik van der Meer: This is gold.
Anri van der Meer: HENDRIK. YOU DIDN'T.
Hendrik van der Meer: I did.
Anri van der Meer: OMG. I love you brother, but you're crazy.
Arthur Kirkland: What the hell is that.
Andersen Densen: THAT, is Adrian flipping shit, my dear Kirkland. It's elementary, you know.
[Elizabeta Hedervary and 2 others like this]
(Mobile) Peter Kirkland: You are such a Sherlock Holmes fanboy!
Andersen Densen: Well, I didn't feel like going onto Tumblr for a yaoi fan fiction, so I popped in A Game Of Shadows instead.

Brynja Stilesson: Invite me next time: I haven't seen it yet.
Tino Vainamoinen: Yes you have!

Brynja Stilesson: What? Can't watch it again?
Andersen Densen: LOL. Sure thing sweetie. Wanna join too, Maiken?
Maiken Bondevik: Hell no.
Andersen Densen: Aww, fine... :(
(Mobile) Gilbert Beilschmidt: HENDRIK. What IS this video?
Hendrik van der Meer: Unfortunately I didn't catch what comes before, but whenever Amelia came in, Ivan kissed her.
[Laima Lauriniatis and 10 others like this]
Peter Kirkland: CONfirmed. I'm there!
(Mobile) Jeanette Bonnefoy: Seriously?!
[Lule Adnan likes this]
Lule Adnan: Why so happy, Jean? ;D
Jeanette Bonnefoy: I am just in shock: you're talking about Ivan. As in Braginski. With Amelia. As in Jones.
Jeanette Bonnefoy: It's odd.
Madara Galante: V-Very...
Hendrik van der Meer: Adrian had great timing and walked in right as Ivan and Amelia pulled apart... cue the screaming.
Gilbert Beilschmidt: Oh WOW. I knew it, I was talking to Birdie about this earlier today.
Hendrik van der Meer: ?
Gilbert Beilschmidt: Well, Adrian's been kind of crushing on the girl and it's starting to get, like, obvious. But THIS just proves it.
Jeanette Bonnefoy: GILBERT! Are you alright? Where have you been?
Gilbert Beilschmidt: M'fine... doctors want to keep me overnight for observation and crap like that, but I'll be out tomorrow.
Jeanette Bonnefoy: How are you texting, mon l'amour...?
Gilbert Beilschmidt: Sneaked it. xD
[Jeanette Bonnefoy and 13 others like this]
Elizabeta Hedervary: Wow. I watched it again... and if you listen REALLY closely right before Adrian stops yelling for the first time, you can hear Ivan speak. Know what he says?
Lule Adnan: What?
Elizabeta Hedervary: Ivan told Adrian to, and I quote, "CALM HIS TITS." And then he starts yelling at him again. I think that's when Hendrik had to restrain him. XD
[Peter Kirkland and 16 others like this]
Gilbert Beilschmidt: HE DID. FUCKIN' AWESOME.
Andersen Densen: LOL, poor Adrian. I'mma invite him over for a movie or something later.
Peter Kirkland: Just don't stop tonguing him on the couch or anything. I'm pretty sure Lovino and that jackass are doing THAT now.
Arthur Kirkland: ARE NOT.
Feliciano Vargas: Oh! That reminds me!
Feliciano Vargas: Ve~! Peter Kirkland~
(Mobile) Peter Kirkland: Yeah?
Feliciano Vargas: Welcome to Cupido Aiutanti, your expert Facebook matchmakers on the quest to bring about true love!
Brynja Stilesson: We've been doing some observing and we've noticed your matchmaking skills.
Feliks Lukasiewicz: And like, we've just gotta have you. :)
Lule Adnan: That, and Kiku Honda recommended you. He's a member too, and it takes some serious skill to impress him.
Peter Kirkland: Cool! So we hook people up? But are we seriously hooking people up, or is this like, a joke?
Feliciano Vargas: It's very serious, Peter! We want to find them good relationships, and maybe, just maybe, they'll truly fall in love~!
Kiku Honda: We have eight members so far... me, Feliciano, Brynja, Feliks, Lule, Jeanette, Elizabeta and Adrian. You will be the ninth.
Peter Kirkland: Aww, yeah.
Peter Kirkland: I'm in! I totally want to start some love!
[Feliciano Vargas and 7 others like this]
Feliks Lukasiewicz: Then it's settled. :D
Feliks Lukasiewicz || Feliciano Vargas: ... Um, Feli? Just realized somethin'.
Feliciano Vargas: Cosa?
Feliks Lukasiewicz: We have QUITE a few projects on people in CA, don't we? And we just, like, added another one.
Feliciano Vargas: Note time~ Lemme see...
Feliciano Vargas: Oh yeah... Peter and Madara~!
Feliks Lukasiewicz: That's not all. Adrian's now got a (according to Gilbert) crush on Amelia, Lule likes SOMEONE, Elizabeta isn't going to take Chantal's snarking for long and might react and THEN there's Jeanette and Arthur...
Feliciano Vargas: But... Jeanette doesn't mind us pairing Arthur with Lovino...
Feliks Lukasiewicz: Uh, Feli? You're like, totes adorable and all, but... yeah she does. She minds big time.
Feliks Lukasiewicz: But that's the PROBLEM. Like, I don't think people want to deal with that triangle. Because I overhead Brynja chatting to Mei-Mei about it, and Mei-Mei was like, "To be honest, I don't like either of them." And I asked what she was talking about and she was like, "I'm talking about Amelia and Jeanette. You know, for Arthur? I don't think either of them would be good for him." And Brynja pulled me aside later and said that Mei made a LOT of sense.
Feliciano Vargas: No wonder no one's requested it yet... and no wonder everyone jumped on the Tsunderes Unite! mission...
Feliks Lukasiewicz: They totally think a third option is best. I don't blame 'em. One's oblivious and the other's fickle.
Feliciano Vargas: Ve~ I'm going to consult Brynja and think about this... This is serious. Grazie for pointing it out to me!
Feliks Lukasiewicz: Anytime, broski. Anytime.
(Mobile) Ivan Braginski: Nikita and Matanya are sleeping~ it's so cute.

(Mobile) Peter Kirkland: This is Amelia. WHAT THE FRENCH TOAST DID YOU DO TO MY SISTER?!
Ivan Braginski: I picked her up and gave her to Gilbert, right? And she freaked because a certain American promised that no one would get hurt...~
Peter Kirkland: Amelia again... and I said no such thing!
Ivan Braginski: Really?
Peter Kirkland: ... Well, okay. M'ybe I told her something... just so she'd, y'know, chill...
Ivan Braginski: See? That was not so hard to say, now was it, Berwald? ^J^
Peter Kirkland: Yeah, maybe... HEY. REALLY?!
Ivan Braginski: I don't understand why you are so angry, Ameochka~
(Mobile) Adrian Kirkland: I dislike this whole damn conversation. -_-

Xiang Wang || (Mobile) Yong-Soo Im: So the Hacker actually offed himself?
Yong-Soo Im: Cher-bear and I saw it all!
Xiang Wang: Like, WOW.
Yong-Soo Im: I know, right? And he wasn't even dramatic about it. He was just like, "Why do I bother? Why do I care? Oh, that's right. I don't." And he gave this freaky smile like out of some slasher film and BAM! He was gone.
Xiang Wang: Darn. I hate that I missed that.
Yong-Soo Im: I know... we need to have an adventure of our own. Just you, and me, and Mei-Mei and Aneki!
Xiang Wang: You've, like, forgotten the New Year's challenges already?
Yong-Soo Im: Pfft. I said an adventure, not something that might KILL me. Gee!
Yong-Soo Im: Oh~! Friend request, friend request~ Must accept this!
Xiang Wang: Yeesh. Good night.
Yong-Soo Im is now friends with Nachalo Zima.

Omorose Hassan: It's okay. He's been found.
Gilbert Beilschmidt: Seriously, where is he?
Omorose Hassan: At Hera's house. I'm outside by the pond... they're inside.
Gilbert Beilschmidt: ... I get it. Danke Omorose! Oh, and while we're at it...
Omorose Hassan has joined the group APH.
(Mobile) Gilbert Beilschmidt: Ta-da! Got you too.
Omorose Hassan: Lovely. :)
(Mobile) Hera Karpusi: Yay...
(Mobile/Mobile) Arthur Kirkland || Lovino Vargas: Drive safely, okay?
Lovino Vargas: -sigh- I know how to drive, idiot...
Arthur Kirkland: And wear your safety belt.
Lovino Vargas: Alright, alright, I'm wearing the stupid thing. Happy?
Arthur Kirkland: ... And don't speed, for heaven's sake. You drive like a maniac.
Lovino Vargas: Oh. My. FUCKING. God. Can I just GO. HOME.
Arthur Kirkland: ... Fine.
Arthur Kirkland: Just don't let creepy people into your car, make sure you keep your door locked at all times, and adjust your mirrors, they're off.
Lovino Vargas: ... What the hell. I'm ignoring your ass.
Arthur Kirkland: ... What's taking you so long to pull away, love?
Lovino Vargas: N-Nothing! J... Just adjusting these goddamn mirrors...
Arthur Kirkland: :)
(Mobile/Mobile) Nachalo Zima || Yong-Soo Im: Nice hanbok. ;)
Yong-Soo Im: Thanks! :D ... Wait. How do you know what I'm wearing?!
Nachalo Zima: Turn around, silly boy.
Yong-Soo Im: OH! Oh, oh, oh! Hi! Hi~!
Nachalo Zima: Want me to come in?
Yong-Soo Im: Of course! ... But how do you know where I live?
Nachalo Zima: You're in the phonebook.
Yong-Soo Im: Come on in! So you're the guy I've been talking to for the past hour!
Nachalo Zima: It will be a pleasure to get to know you better.
Yong-Soo Im: Same, da ze! And awesome, you came on the night I cooked! You hungry? I'll reheat it for you~
Nachalo Zima: That sounds delightful, thank you.
(Mobile/Mobile) Thanatos Winter || Nachalo Zima: ... I'd say something witty but I'm still too busy trying to understand how LITTLE SENSE YOU MAKE.
Nachalo Zima: Shut up. Just shut up. I'm crushing, okay?
Nachalo Zima: Look at the boy, he's adorable.
Thanatos Winter: I see your one-way ticket to a lethal injection, not a boyfriend. Didn't you always tell me that love didn't exist?
Nachalo Zima: This is lust, not love.
Thanatos Winter: What-the-fuck-ever. Call me when you leave... if you leave that is.
Nachalo Zima: I'll capitilize on that possibility, yes I will. ;)
Do you all know what comes next? I know what comes next...~
Now, let me explain some things about this chapter before I launch a little more detail on the next arc. First off, we have the introduction of Seborga. He is my favorite micronation, yes he is. And don't worry, Sealand/Latvia fans. Seborga is by no means a distraction to the pairing: he's just there for some bromantic support. I'll most likely pair Seborga off with either the special character later to introduced in the All I Ever Wanted Arc, or Sascha-Gero.
Second off, we have Sascha-Gero, whose real title is Kugelmugel. Real name? Alexander Gero Beilschmidt, however, Sascha is a German diminuative for Alexander, and Sascha-Gero just sounds so... memetic. It's only hypnonated like that whenever his nickname is behind used because smashing it together into one word looked extremely off.
Third, on my profile now are little summaries to each arc - so now you know what to expect later on down the line. And... ah, I just realized that we have THREE serious arcs back-to-back-to-back. I'll need to slide something in there to break that up, because those particular three are probably the darkest out of ALL of them. Yeah. You're going to need a break.
So. We all know what comes after this, the arc you've all been waiting for: Tsunderes Unite! Now, this arc actually has a choice that could effect the ENTIRE story later on, but I'll save that choice until we get there. I just want to be well aware of that fact. Second, this might has well also be Cupido Aiutanti's arc, since this is their project, they're going to be around a LOT. Fortunately, this arc has two events that will included pretty much EVERYONE so far (a party and movie night: part two). So, yeah. The party could count as its own mini-arc really, because quite a few friendships are rocked by this event.
What can I say? I like to shake it up.
