rules_the_north | *49; video; AU!Discedo

[The feed starts with Sweden's face and upper body. The camera seems to be sitting on a kitchen table, Sweden on a chair not too far away from it. He is wearing a long shirt and a scarf, which effectively covers almost all his skin except for face and hands. He seems to be holding a notebook in his hands.

After a few seconds of waiting, to make sure that the thing is really recording, he holds the notebook up and turns it around. He's holding it too close for everything to be shown, but this is what you will see:]

C'cona, Jade, Ac', y' here? ...Can someone understand th's?

[Then a lenghty pause.]

Does anyone know a ch'ld named Em'l? Looks pr'bably l'ke this.[He holds up another picture, this time it shows a boy of maybe three years that has very clearly Sweden's eyes.

]

[ooc: Basically, Sweden has a 3-year-old child in this world. Feel free to know the child/his mother/be his nursery teacher/whatever else. He isn't completely sure about that yet, though.
...also fake!Sweden had a one night stand the night before with fake!Finland. He managed to cover up every single hickey, but you are free to have suspicions from him wearing a scarf in the first place. ...and/or to have seen Finland's post and put one and one together.]

（　still frowning, he turns and looks. spotting the picture is pretty easy, but he does a double take when it sinks in what it's of, going over and removing it from the wall. he recognizes himself and sweden—but what the hell are the others?　）

The hell is this?

From:

rules_the_north

[He's had enough time to ponder this, and to look through everything in the apartment ...and he has a pretty concrete idea of it now.]

Seems t' b' our fam'ly here.

[The words "our family" uttered with just a hint of hesitation, but in the end without any feeling in it. It just does not make enough sense yet to feel anything in particular about it.]

From:

kongeriget

No it's not. （　while he doesn't sound argumentative, he's pretty damn fast to say it: there are a lot of reasons why that's not true, not in the least because of the lack of other Nordics.　）

From:

rules_the_north

Take a look 'round.

[He turns around and now looks directly at Denmark, trying to figure out if he looks any different. If there is a visible clue on him about this place; it seems to be the same person on the inside or sure, but...

Examining every inch of the other man with his eyes.]

From:

kongeriget

（　something about that really creeps denmark out, and he takes a half step back. it's not the stare—denmark's kind of immune to it—but the searching. he looks the same as ever, anyway—but then on close examination, he doesn't quite. his clothes are simple enough, but nothing he has in discedo. his hair—self cut for a year now—is tidier, although still in its usual messy style. and if denmark was to take off his shirt, he'd be missing some very important scars.　）

The hell ya talkin' about?

From:

rules_the_north

'verything 's different h're.

[That pretty much sums everything up. He didn't find much of anything about Finland in the whole apartment, the only hint was a yearbook on a shelf that mentioned the other nation; there are all those pictures of the child and some of a woman that is apparently the mother; his body as well as Finland's are slightly different, no scars and clearly better fed; and then, more than all of that, there are tons of evidence about their family -

he points at the picture in Denmark's hands.] "Our moth'r" called.

From:

kongeriget

We don't have one. （　he sounds a little belligerent, but really, he's worried. there's no way he has a life he doesn't know about. and there's no way—sweden would say these things. he should just turn and leave and sleep or drink until things made sense again, but— 　）

From:

rules_the_north

't makes no sense.

[he completely agrees with Denmark, for once. At least on this. They have no mother, none of the family in the picture is theirs ...except for each other, kind of. But he is very sure that none of those photographs ever happened, mostly because photography wasn't invented yet when they were that old. he himself only encountered it in Discedo.]

D'd y' find anyone y't?

From:

kongeriget

Nor. （　because clearly the nordics, in a situation like this, are the only ones who matter.　） Japan too.

From:

rules_the_north

F'n is here. [There is no priority above this (because if any of the four other Nordics is able to take care of himself in Sweden's opinion, that would be Denmark).]

...Ice?

From:

kongeriget

Haven't seen him. （　which he does not like one bit, but—　） Nor says he did. …What do ya mean, Fin is here?

[Nods towards the other side of the apartment.] H' seems t' have stayed h're last night.

[Not normally; implied. He will stay from now on, implied as well.]

...'m will look out fer Ice.

From:

kongeriget

（　normally he might argue, but he's in 'nordics together' mode right now. they have to stick together, even sweden.　）

We'll all stay here.

From:

rules_the_north

Yer cooking duty tomorrow, th'n.

[Carries what he found over to the stove and stirs whatever is in the pots.]

From:

kongeriget

（　considering how little he trusts the other nordic's food, he actually doesn't mind this. but it does lead him to narrow his eyes and lean against the wall.　） What are ya making?

From:

rules_the_north

A l'ght veg'table soup and stew.

[Turns around to look back at Denmark, watching this almost familiar person thoughtfully. He pretty much just used whatever he could find in the kitchen.]

From:

kongeriget

How rotten is it? （　HE KNOWS HOW YOU EAT YOUR FISH…… and if au denmark is anything like normal denmark, the kitchen is filled with organic health foods. sob. …and he gives sweden a look like, why the hell are you looking at me?　）

From:

rules_the_north

[Now I have to wonder if one would get surströmming in this place. Just so a can of it could explode on someone before the AU time is up... Or if Iceland could find rotten shark.]

...Not 't all.

[His face does not really change at all for this reply. But he wanders over towards Denmark.]

From:

kongeriget

（　he tenses slightly, but holds his ground, not looking away either.　） What?

From:

rules_the_north

D'd yer bod' change?

From:

kongeriget

Of course not! （　well, more like it never occurred to him that it would.　）

From:

rules_the_north

'ncluding scars?

[He wouldn't have bothered to look if he hadn't had a naked Finland to study for quite a while.]

From:

kongeriget

Of course. （　but he immediately glances down at himself—back up at sweden—and then he lifts the collar of his shirt away from his body and tries to look down it. he can't see anything, but given the way he's looking…　）

From:

rules_the_north

[Just waiting for Denmark to be done with it. He'll not comment about the other nation's actions - he cannot say that they really surprise him, anyway.]

From:

kongeriget

（　…okay, this isn't working. he turns away in a weird sort of modesty and reaches up under his shirt—wait. wait. waitwaitwait. there's usually a line here. he knows it. knows it.　）

Where the fuck is Skåne!
