A/N: I'm back with a request from Anony (Guest), his/her requests are 'how did Malaysia settle with top three trading partners (Europe), Netherlands, Germany and England' and another 'Malaysia celebrating CNY with the European nations'. But since I can choose, celebrating CNY seems pretty cool. Also another request bythankswelcome (DA) on a fluffy family moment between England, Malaysia and Singapore.
Warnings: the usual OCs plus cuteness!

Celebrating CNY
with European nations
...
The sun shining in the sky accompanied by the chirping of birds and the gentle breeze would indicate that it was a quiet and peaceful day, a beautiful day to be exact. Such a day should not go to waste...especially a certain celebration.
Not exactly a celebration but because the European nations (mostly Germany and a couple of others) are eager to know how the Chinese celebrate, Malaysia is more than happy to throw a celebration there even though her presence at her own country is also required by her boss.
Of course they need a venue for the party and also food. That is why many nations cast a vote on whose place would be perfect, Malaysia and the states are busy in the kitchen (they somehow managed to drag Singapore as well) and also borrowing Hong Kong's firecrackers.
England's eyebrows twitched as he glared menacingly at the other European nations who are behaving innocently (some are). He was aware that a place is needed for the party however there is one thing he could not understand one bit.
"Why must it be held at my place?" England demanded, trying not to lash out at the others.
"It's near." Spain answered.
"Got WiFi"
"Big house"
"And everything is in English."
England pinched the bridge of his nose. "Please give me a good reason why it cannot be held at frog's place."
"Always on strike"
"Frogs and snails ruin my appetite"
"I don't want to see a naked France prancing around when he's drunk."
"Excusez moi!?"
/Time skip\
Different types of food are served on the table. Some are eager to wolf down everything but then...not until the show. Performances plus firecrackers.
"Firecrackers are used to scare the evil beings (spirits) away." Malaysia explained when Germany asked her about the firecrackers.
How did she get her hands on the firecrackers? Quite difficult especially when you're borrowing them from someone who can't really live without firecrackers. British colony and tends to be sarcastic almost every time.
"Could the same be applied to red decorations and lanterns?" Hungary inquired.
Malaysia nodded. "It's an old story but at my place, we do things differently. Prayer to the ancestors or more like inviting them for a big feast. We do this to have them bless our house with luck!"
"Many frequented the temples to pray the Gods for luck, health and so on." Penang continued, except she's explaining it to Belgium and Netherlands.
"Performances like lion and dragon dances are also to scare the evil beings (spirits) away as the appearance somehow frighten them."
At the background, Denmark is dressed up as the evil spirit or rather a being known asNian (in Chinese it means year) while Prussia and Spain are attempting to do the lion dance with an uninterested Norway and Iceland looking on.
"Avoid sweeping the floors on Chinese New Year as your luck might go bye-bye." Malaysia said.
"Dull colours or black and grey are also best not to wear unless you have someone who recently moved onto the other world."
"Shopping malls also have a decoration battle against each other!"
"Last but not least...red packets."
Malaysia and the states turn to England who had been left out with a look that clearly states what they want the whole time.
"Dad~"
"No"
"Please~"
"No"
"Oneang pauplease~"
Family moments
Nation AU:
Playing the Piano
...
The colour of clear blue spread across the sky, not a cloud to be seen as the sun hangs on the sky, representing the day. Gentle breeze blow past the trees and flowers, cooling the area.
In a small mansion, an Englishman is making use of this day to teach a couple of children how to play the piano.
"Try pressing this key now." the Englishman instructed, standing behind a pair of children, a boy and a girl, wearing a proper English attire.
The young Asian boy with a pair of glasses did as he was told to and pressed one of the piano keys. He looked up at the man of messy blonde hair and apple green eyes who gave a small nod.
"Do you know how to play it now?" the man asked with a small smile.
The boy looked away from the man's gaze, not confident of his skills but a nudge from the tan skinned girl beside him gives the boy a confident smile.
"Come on Singapore! We can always do it together! Like we always do!" the girl reassured with a huge, confident smile on her face.
The boy or rather known as Singapore nods as he starts playing with the girl, his not so related sister, Malaya. As they play the happy tune on the piano, the smile on the man's face grew. The atmosphere around them seem to have become much more brighter.
From a distance, one could tell they are a happy family regardless of their status, race and nationalities. The smiles on their faces are never force or fake as those smiles...are from their own heart after all.

The Dos and Don't(s)
...
Now ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, since young, we are taught about the Dos and Don't(s) and it is necessary for us to obey unless we want to put ourselves at risk. In Fun dengan Malaysia, our favourite nation was given a list of it and also the scenarios/consequences. Basically, it's almost like 100 things not allowed to do in meetings and so on except we include the 'dos' this time.
I, Malaysia, in all my life as a nation, has been ordered to follow these rules set by the responsible parties or countries such as my dad, England while other rules are just to myself. If I were to 'disobey' these rules, consequences are not something that anyone is willing to take. My states are to abide the rules as well.
attend meetings EARLY and
2. DON'T peek inside rooms with noises
3. Unless you want to see something out of the ordinary...
Malaysia arrived early for the meeting, which is surprising to some if not many. Fortunately she doesn't have to hear all of those surprise exclamations from a lot of nations since it's going to be a simple meeting with the nations involved in ASEAN + 3. As she passed by one of the rooms, she heard some noises coming from behind the wooden door.
"Hitotsu tanomu ze o negai da" kara kara no ringo sashi dashi teNan demo nai yōna koe de guzutte sā doko nimo ike nai na"
Sounds like someone singing and hold on, that song! Opening the door slowly and quietly, she takes a peek inside on the owner of the singing voice. The owner turns out to be a person in a panda suit. Probably for some entertainment show, Malaysia thought. But it's Vocaloid! As the person in the suit turns around, time seems to have stopped.
Allow this young author to say it in words, the person in the panda suit, singing is none other than the one of the oldest nations around, takes great pride in his knowledge, could be called an ancient, way older than most of the nations and...his name in Chinese literally means the middle kingdom.
"Pappappara papaparapa, kemuru jōki kensō no me
Pappappara papaparapa, koko de tōjō pinchi hittā"
Is it China or his evil twin double or something? Or maybe her eyes are playing tricks on her? She never knew that China is a secret fan of Vocaloid, did Japan secretly smuggle some Vocaloid stuff for him or is it April's fools and Hong Kong is secretly pranking her.
Malaysia did not have to worry about that. China's eyes open and oh so coincidently landed on dark brown eyes. Not a word was spoken as Malaysia greeted a 'Ni Hao' before closing the door as she left.
4. DO watch movies at America's (forced)
5. DON'T watch any movies that involve creepy stuff or horror
6. Dreams are often weird after watching them
Male Malaysia remembered he was actually at America's after being forced to a movie marathon. To America, it's compulsory that every nation (except a few) are to watch a few movies with him.
Thanks to that, he dreamt something really weird. America declaring his eternal love towards burgers and fries, England CAN COOK! Germany acts as America's Papa, Italy becomes little red riding hood carrying balut for his dear sweet Granny Philippines, who had beaten a wolf into a bloody pulp and Netherlands is his long lost father! Dear sweet horror!
help Malaysia with cleaning up
'T look at the stack of comics hidden somewhere in her house
9. Unless you want to lose the virginity of your precious eyes.
10.This is no joking matter (to some)
Kuala Lumpur grudgingly help his sister, Malaysia is tidying up some stuff before the Chinese New Year. As his sister left the room to answer a phone call, KL was left in the room with a stack of comics/manga and others.
Out of boredom, he pulls out a random manga like book and stares at the cover. The artwork of two teenage boys seem pretty nice. Why can't comics have such nice artwork?
"What's that KL?" Labuan asked, taking the book from KL's hands.
KL was about to reply until he noticed a certain R-18 sign on the bottom. Oh...oh...wait, Labuan is reading R-18...oh come on, he's older than humans, what's the harm in it when he may have accidentally seen some R-18 stuff.
Labuan takes a look before the colours instantly drained from his face. Give him a few minutes or seconds and he will-
"MY EYES! MY EYES! IT BURNS!" Labuan cried before running off into the bathroom.
The sound of running water could be heard as KL was left to comprehend on what just happened. He blinked before looking at the book that was thrown on the floor by Labuan. Picking up the book, the capital takes a look at the page. He immediately paled a few shades. Sure he had known Penang and his sister were acting weird about this but...
Storming into the bathroom, he shoved Labuan aside and stares at the mirror on the wall. On the mirror, he could see what he saw just now. Teenage boys in compromising position. That image won't come out!
"KAKAK, KEEP YOUR BOOKS OUT OF REACH!"
-END-
A/N: Finished! Multiple AUs...still figuring how to write those and still be satisfied with it. Please give your opinions about this or if there is anything I should add (in future chapters and in PM please), please do say so.
Now...one more thing left...
...
Satu...Dua...Tiga!
Let's welcome our nations in their ethnic costumes! For this time, we'll fly to Borneo to learn more about the ethnic tribes there.
"This author went to Kuching, Sarawak last year so she has experience on some after a visit to Sarawak Cultural Village. To readers out there, if you haven't go there, head over there NOW! It's worth a visit! A warning to those who are afraid of heights...their houses are above the ground and only a small (very) ladder can get you up." Male Malaysia said, wearing the Kadazan-Dusun's costume.
The author has some issues with heights but she has to force it down to get up there.
"Anyway," Female Malaysia cut in, wearing the Iban's costume (the one that has a crown) "let's get started, shall we?"
Male Malaysia nodded before turning to the audience. "For today, we'll be using our own states to do it! Let's welcome..."
"Sabah, Sarawak, Miri, Kuching and Labuan!"
The four personifications stood in front of the audience wearing their respective traditional costumes and yes, if you want G-string include it as well.
"Selamat kembali to the show!" Sarawak greeted.
"It is nice seeing you guys here again! For today, we are given the chance to talk about our ethnic groups!"
"Indeed~! We finally got the spotlight!"
"After so long..." Miri agreed.
Sarawak clears his throat and starts "First of all, Miri, Kuching and I will begin with our ethnic groups. Take it away Miri and Kuching! Make the state proud!"
Miri smirks. "Will do. Let's begin with the Iban tribe! As you know, there are some who live at Sarawak and also at Sabah. Their costume, for the ladies, one of them is what Kak Malaysia is wearing at the moment (flattening your stomach) and another well...look it up. For the men...again, look it up. Like other ethnic tribes, the Iban live in long houses and also have their own specific...traditions, beliefs and even more."
"There are also the Bidayuh, Penan and many more. Some of the tribes live in tall houses while some in long houses. Their traditional costumes are...also different but there are some similarity. This author misplaced the map about the ethnic tribes so we're just saying based on knowledge alone. But the traditional dances of these tribes are nice and unique." Kuching continued.
After that, Sabah and Labuan step up. The young territory holding Sabah's hand really did earn some glare from Sarawak and a squeal from Philippines. Things gotten a bit worse as Labuan gave Sarawak a victory sign accompanied with a huge cheeky grin. Male and Female Malaysia along with the other states could only just sweat drop at the scene.
"At my place, the majority of the ethic groups are Kadazan-Dusun and Murut. There are even more but because our time is short, we'll get to the main point!" Sabah began, ignoring the glaring competition between Sarawak and Labuan.
"Kadazan-Dusun is the largest ethnic group in Sabah and is known to be the wet rice and hill rice cultivators. Their language belongs to the Dusunic family and shares a common animistic belief system with various customs and practices. Their ancient beliefs on the verity that everything has life like rocks, trees, and rivers are all living things. Does remind you of Pocohontas at the moment."
"And they really make good rice wine!" Sabah added, pulling out a large bottle of rice wine before opening it and drink it down much to the horror of the older states/territories/nations.
"DON'T SABAH! YOU'RE TOO YOUNG TO DRINK!"
"PLEASE BIG SISTER SABAH! STOP DRINKING!"
"STOP HER!"
The states and territories tackled the young state before successfully pulling out the rice wine from her. Male Malaysia turned to Labuan desperately and gives out his orders.
"KEEP THE SHOW GOING! WE CAN MANAGE!"
Labuan nodded as he continues "The Murut people are one of the largest ethnic group in Sabah, live in long houses that are built near rivers as the river really is their highways. Traditional costume for men is a jacket made of tree bark (Artocarpus tamaran), a red loincloth, and a headdress decorated with Argus pheasant feathers while-"
He paused to take a glance at his sister, Sabah, who is now wrestling with the states and territories for the stolen rice wine.
"The ladies wear a black sleeveless blouse and sarong, which fell just below the knees. Like most of the other indigenous groups in Sabah, the Murut decorated their clothing with beads and also made belts out of old silver coins (it's flattening your stomach!) . Another belt made of reddish-brown glass beads plus yellow and blue beads was hung loosely around the waist."
"And that's the end! See you soon!"
"SABAH! DROP THAT RICE WINE! YOU'RE TOO YOUNG AND INNOCENT TO DRINK!"
