is cheering for Argentina and Paraguay today! He does not remember who they are playing though... he should check.
is not even sure as to who those people are, but if Peru is rooting for them, he will too.
thinks they need to cheer more! Argentina is losing!
guesses this is bad, so he begins to cheer.
is so nervous he covers his face, but he is looking between his fingers.
hopes he is oksy.
*okay
is okay just very nervous! "Vamos Argentina! You can do it!"
still is not sure why he speaks funny. "Yay, go!"
calms down because it is half time but he still looks a little nervous. "They will do better in the next half."
lightly pats his shoulder. "They will."
smiles and nods. He was sure they would. They just needed to get adjusted to Germany's tactics or something like that.
also thinks the sun could be getting in their eyes.
might start crying. Maybe. Argentina was losing! Argentina was not suppose to lose! Something was wrong with the world!
hopes he doesn't start crying. He wouldn't know what to do with himself.
cannot believe this! There must be a mistake. "They lost... by so much."
bites his lip. "It was really sunny out..."
was about to cry but it seems he put a pause on that. "Oh." He looks out towards the window. "I think it is cloudy."
freezes. Well, he is not able to think of why the Argentina people lost! "Oh...Really?"
nods and points towards the window but quickly lowers his hand. "You see?"
nods in confirmation. "But they aren't playing here are they?"
wishes they were. "No. Pero they will play at Brasil's place during the next World Cup."
"So...um...now what?'
is not sure. "The next game is in a few hours. I can make you something to eat until then."
blinks. "Oh, I like food."
likes food too. He was not sure what to make at first but his face brightens up when he decides. "I will make something quick."
gets up. "Okay. Do you need help?"
thinks about this. His kitchen was his special place, he was not sure. He does remember the time he lets Spain come over and Spain tried--
-to take his island from him. "I am not sure." Greenland was his friend and a good guy but he could not decide what was the right thing--
--to do.
nods slowly. "Oh, um, okay. I'll wait out here,then." Peru suddenly got all weird.
feels bad but he still can't decide. "I do not know. I should ask Chile what I should do."
blinks. "I'll just go home..." To make things easier on this guy.
grabbed the phone, its an old cord style phone. He sees Greenland about to leave and grabs at him with his other hand. "No. Por favor--
-- I want you to stay. It will not take long." The phone is going to decide to slide onto the floor now. "...maldición. This telephone--
--is always doing that."
is very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very confused.
"Um...okay?"
picks up the phone. "That means you will stay?"
"Sure?"
looks happy! He takes Greenland's hands and leads him to the kitchen apparently forgetting his qualms about having him there.
looks around. It was nicer than his kitchen. Which did not exist.
loves cooking so, yeah... he took good care of his kitchen. He starts getting the ingredients out to begin cooking.
sort of just stands around, watching him, not quite sure of what to do with himself.
is busying himself getting a meal.. or two... or three ready.
finds a window to stare out of. "Is Argentina your friend?"
nods. "Well I am not sure. I think we are at least. His people come visit sometimes and we lived with Spain once... kind of."
rubs the top of his head. "Oh. Is he family?"
tries to think. "I think he is. Spain said we are all hermanitos."
blinks. "What's a...hermyn--hero--that?"
blinks at him and stops peeling potatoes to explain. "They brothers. Many of them."
nods. "I see. I have...uncles?"
thinks. "I am not sure. Maybe I have some too. I had a mother and a grandfather... but they are not here."
"What happened to them?"
looks confused. "I am not sure. After Spain came they vanished. I do miss mama y abuelito."
gives him a light pat on the shoulder despite the dangers. "I'm sorry..."
smiles anyway. "Oh. No. You do not have to be sorry. I mean it is okay. They probably had the right idea leaving."
thinks Peru talks funny in English. No contractions or something. "Oh..."
has a funny accent as well... it sounds like he is speaking Spanish. "It is fine, because I remember them. See they are here.* He points--
--at his own heart.
squints his eyes and leans in. "I don't see them. Are they invisible?"
looks down at where he pointed. *Que? La verdad que no te entiendo?" He laughs. "I do not know how to say this... In my heart?"
tilts his head and looks up at the other before straightening himself. "I don't get it."
tries to think of another way to explain it but it seems he can't. "Maybe I said it wrong?"
shrugs. "I don't know. I don't have anyone in mine."
is very confused now. "En donde?" He shakes his head. "I mean. Inside where?"
thought Peru knew what he was talking about! "In my heart."
thinks that is sad. "No one? You are not close to your uncles?"
shakes his head. "Someone keeps my isolated."
thinks that is even sadder. No one should have to be alone. "I can visit you and help keep you not isolated."
is not aware that it is that sad. "You can? It may be too cold for you."
thinks he can. "That is okay. I can put on winter clothes then, it is winter here. So I have my winter clothes out.*
nods slowly. "Oh, well, it feels warm here.'
*"
tilts his head. "Well it is not as bad as last year. My boss called a state of emergency because of the weather."
blinks. "What's that?"
is not sure how to explain. "It means bad things are happening. We were not prepared for it to be that cold."
"You mean it's really hot here?"
shakes his head. "Perhaps mild? It depends where you are. I have coastal climate, and there is a desert. I have a rainforest and then--
--there are the Andes."
is confused. "What's a desert?"
thought everyone knew what a desert was. So he now looks perplexed. "You know. Un desierto."
shakes his head. "No.'
is not sure how to explain. "What if I show you one day? Then you can see the desert with your very own eyes."
guesses that could work. "Okay."
does not know there is a chance Greenland might melt earlier than predicted if he takes him to the desert so he continues to cook happily.
watches him cook before declaring, "I'm jealous of you."
peers at him for a second. "I am not sure why... Aa. You heard that saying? It really is not true."
"You jus seem so cool."
stops what he is doing to face Greenland. "You mean like the temperature. There is the other cool..."
"I mean, like...you're amazing."
is surprised and embarrassed, yet very happy. He smiles widely. "You really mean that amigo?"
nods to confirm this. "Yes."
wants to hug Greenland, so he hugs Greenland!
blinks. Yes, Peru is still kinda weird.
pats him on the shoulder.
lets him go eventually. "I should finish cooking."
nods. "Okay."
will continue cooking until he is very much done. He knows he has forgotten about something though... and it involved the television.
also forgot something, but it must not be all that very important if he forgot~.
seems to be trying very hard to remember but finally gives up. "Let me set the table for you."
"Okay." He has been saying that quite often today.
has not noticed, anyway he leads Greenland to the dining room, which is pretty much his living room and pulls a chair at the table for him.
sits down on the chair, kicking his feet lightly under the table.
starts serving food for Greenland. Different dishes. Papa a la Huancaina, Chupe de Camarones, Tallarines Verdes, and to drink Inca Kola.
just looks at it all. He has never seen stuff like this before. He looks up at Peru, "Have you ever had a snow cone?"
nods his head. "I did but then Argentina...Aa nada. It was nothing."
frowns in slight disappointment. "Oh."
is not sure if he said something bad. He looks embarrassed. "Aa. Eat up please, I will get desert."
[ya know I meant dessert.]
gives the food a poke before shoving it into his face.
( yeah. xD; 0
*)
goes to get dessert ready for him. He will cry later when he finds out he forgot about the game.
pokes a bit at the noodles, a bit iffy on those before sticking those into his mouth.
never understands why people are hesitant to eat them, he forgets people do not like their food to be green sometimes.
eventually finishes it all off. He was hungry. e_e;
will come back with Greenland's dessert. A Suspiro Limeño. He places it on the table for him, surprised he ate all that. "If you want more--
--just let me know."
looks down at it before taking a whiff. "What is it?" He should have asked that before.
looks down at it. At first he thought something was wrong with it. "It is a Suspiro Limeño. I hope you like it."
sticks a finger in it befor bringing it up to his mouth. "Aren't you hungry?'
blinks, then looks embarrassed. "Not so much. I mean. Well perhaps. But you eat." He was enjoyed watching someone eat his cooking a lot--
--more than actually eating it. Of course he would stuff his own face later.
starts eating that, then. About halfway through the dish, he looks up. "What's your name?" he asks.
is not sure what he means. He knew this person was Greenland and he was sure he told him his name. "...you mean my name as in not who I--
--am. I mean... I am Peru but... what do you mean?"
shakes his head. "I mean your *other* name."
did not expect to be asked for that, but it was okay they were friends. He nods. "O ese nombre. Bueno. My name is Luis Alberto--
--Quispe Flores."
stares at him before returning his attention to his dessert. "That is a long name."
was actually expecting for him to share his own name and not tell him his name was long. He already knew that. He leans close, maybe --
Greenland had not finished speaking?
blinks over at the other for a short second before eating again.
kind of leans a little closer now. He still expects him to tell him.
pays no notice. This dessert, whatever it is, is too good.
watches him eat, backing off a bit. "Aa. Well..." He sighs giving up.
finishes the dessert. "Thank you very much~."
notices how happy he looks and can't help to smile. "De nada, it was nothing." He begins to pick up the table now.
gets up to help him, deciding it would be mean to have him do it alone.
accepts the help this time around. He is going to start washing the dishes, something it looks like he does not really enjoy.
will just help him with that as well! He wants to be a good guest.
is washing those dishes but looks at Greenland confused. Usually everyone ran for the hills by now. No one liked cleaning.
does not really like cleaning, but he never had someone to do it with.
thinks it would be nice to have a maid to do all the cleaning for him but he cannot afford to hire one.
thinks he would like a person to talk to is all.
would tell Greenland he can talk to him if he knew what he was thinking.
is too busy focused on cleaning to talk, though.
is cleaning too but he wishes he did not have to. Maybe he could afford a dishwasher one day.
might buy him one if he asks.
would not ask, because he is sure if he works hard enough he will obtain enough money to buy one.
smiles lightly to himself. "What do you want to do after?"
is almost done cleaning up. "I am not sure. I think I was suppose to do something but it has gotten so late."
nods. "I'll go home, then."
would like his new friend to stay really... and perhaps help him figure out what he is suppose to be doing. "Do you really have to?"
is not quite sure. "You said that it's getting late."
knows he said that. "You can stay for the night... if you do not mind."
has never really stayed the night for anyone for fun. "Really?"
nods with a smile. He had people stay at his house before... in fact those people stayed far longer then welcomed... and might have invited-
-themselves, but he liked his friend Greenland. Also he most likely forgot those past things at the moment.
"Yes, I can let you sleep in my bed and give you something to wear for the night."
tilts his head. "Where are you going to sleep?"
just kind of looks at him. "My bed..." He is not sure why Greenland is asking this, he is sure they will both fit.
nods. He just wanted to make sure he was not going to sleep on the floor. That would kind of hurt.
would not sleep on the floor. The floor was very cold, he might get ill.
"Now what?"
thinks for a moment. "Would you like to meet llama before I get things ready for bed?"
appears somewhat interested. "What's llama?"
smiles. "My friend. Llama is..." He thinks for a moment. "I will show you llama." He moves out of the kitchen expecting Greenland to follow.
follows him. He would like to meet Peru's friend, really.
opens the front door and steps out having a look around. The air is a bit cool but not cold. "Follow me..."
is not bothered by it. It actually feels better outside than in. "Okay..."
does not seem to mind. He has had it worst. He walks along a path, looking about. "Llama should not be too far..."
looks around as well, not quite sure what Llama looks like.
spots his llama first and waves at it as if it were a person. "Llama! Ven para aca." The llama seems to ignore him and even turns to look--
--in the other direction. Peru seems to think nothing of this and walks up to the llama.
continues to follow along, blinking. How weird. "Is he ignoring you?"
stops and turns to look at Greenland. "Is he? I am not sure. Maybe he is tired." Apparently not since the llama is slowly walking away.
is not sure what to think of this, watching the llama. "He's walking away..."
waves his arms around at the llama. "Espera un momento! Llama!" He looks embarrassed now not sure what to do about his run away llama.
