searching in the store, trying to find the part that Astrid wanted... He knew what to get, but it didn't seem to be here.
saw the other, glaring a little. Why was the other there? He knew that the Dane wasn't one for most carpentry esque objects...
finally managed to find the tool he needed and smiled, taking it and whistling as he headed to the cash. He was completely oblivious to the other being around.
"Don' get that one.." He said as the other passed him.
stopped instantly in his tracks. He recognised that voice. He slowly looked over to the Swede, a clear confused look on his face.
raised an eyebrow quietly. "What? Why are y' starin?"
gasped and dropped the tool he had before hugging the other with all his might. "Bror!"
made a sound and just stared at the other. "Um... Dan what are y' een doin?"
nuzzled into the others neck, for once ignoring the height difference. "Fanden, where have ye been this whole time? I've not seen ye in like, years." He really had missed his bror.
just kind of let his basket drop, patting the otherd back a little bit. "'Ve jus' been gone.. Why does it matter?" He raised an eyebrow still. "Why are y' in a hardware store? Y' don' build things."
hums. "I missed ye. That's why it matters." He finally let go of the other and smiled. "I do build things. But just when I wanna. M'gettin' stuff for Astrid."
pushed the other away. "Y'er datin a human? Dan y' know that never works." He was kind of worried for the other.
blinks and shakes his head. "Nej, she's not a.." He smirked a bit, putting an arm around his shoulders. "Come, we've got lots to talk 'bout."
stared from his arm to the tool isle. "I.." He still had more things to buy, but he shook his head. "Fine."
smiled and walked with him, almost taking him out of the store before noticing he had stuff to buy. "A lot has changed since ye left..."
just pulled the other to the checkout, paying for his things. "Hm." He mumbled in acknowledgement. "Like how?" He asked after they were away from the checkout.
started walking towards a bar. "We'll get seated then I'll explain it all."
sighed and walked with him to the bar of his choice. "Fine."
walked into the bar and went to a booth, ordering himself a beer as he passed the counter.
ordered a beer for himself as well before sitting down. He put his bag on the seat beside him. "So what's changed?"
leaned on the table, looking him in the eye. "Ye're here."
raised an eyebrow. "Great? What else 's different?"
hums. "Not too much else." He leaned back as he got his beer and took a sip. "Ye're not the only Sweden anymore, though."
stared quietly. "Uh? Nej... 'm the only Sweden. Dan y'er bein odd."
shakes his head. "Nej. S'true. There's another of ye. There's another of all of us."
frowned at him. "I don' b'lieve y', Dan."
smiles at that. "Even I have a second. It's kinda funny, actually.. and kinda fun."
"Why 's it kind 'f fun? How do y' know that they 'ren't lyin?" He took a small drink of his beer.
shrugs. "It's fun 'cause we don't get all the burden now. If we're down, an the country is sufferin', they take some of the trouble. It's a lot less stress on us... and they're not lyin'. I've seen mine pretty
much die a few times and she still comes back."
gave him a doubting look. "Why 's there two thou.. did y' say 'she'?" He raised an eyebrow.
blinks before laughing and drinking more. "Ah, ja. They're the opposite gender. So ye know, a female Denmark, female Sweden, male Belarus... though, not everyone has met their other. Or are even here."
nodded a little, looking at his beer. "Hm.. Maybe.." He shook his head.
finished off his beer and hummed. "Ye should visit the female Sweden some time... I could even bring ye to her."
shrugged drinking his beer. "If she 's me, I'd want t' see this. Where does she live?"
hums. "With me." He smirked as he ordered another beer and drank it as it was put in front of him.
dropped his glass and stared at the other in shock. "Livin with.. y'?" He growled angrily at that. "She should be livin in Sweden."
smirks. "Weeeeellllll~ She's not. She's livin' with me. Can ye blame her, though? I rock."
shook his head. "Nej. Y' don'. Why would y' even want a Swede livin with y'?"
shrugged. "I missed ye. So I guess by havin' her around it filled the void. Besides, I've got other reasons."
raised an eyebrow. "Mhmm. I don' b'lieve y' though. Why would y' put up with the female version 'f me?"
hums. "Ye'll find out when ye meet her..."
"Mhmm.. When are we goin' t' see her?" He was curious but kind of bothered.
shrugs. "Whenever ye want. She's at home makin' somethin'. That's why I'm out. If it wasn't for that I'd never leave her side."
"Why 's that?" He looked at the table. "Let's go. I want t' see this."
hummed and finished his beer, getting up to pay the tab before heading out. "Ye still know where I live?"
rolled his eyes nodding. "Ja, y've been there for so long, how would I forget?"
shrugs. "Just makin' sure" He hummed quietly and walked towards his house, eager to introduce him to Astrid.
walked with him toward his house, he was curious about this girl.
walked quietly, wanting to get home. When he saw the house he almost ran to it. "Come on, Sve~"
nods a bit, he picked up his pace to keep up with the Dane. "'M comin."
walked inside and headed to the little workshop that Astrid had. He was more excited than he should have been, and saw no backfires from this.
didn't really know what to expect. "What's her name?"
hums at that. "Her name is Astrid.. or Swede." He pretty much gave her the same nickname as he gave Sve.
"Mhmm.." He fowned a little bit looking at the work shed, he didn't know if he wanted to continue and meet her or not..
smiled and grabbed his hand. "Come on~" He brought him to the shed and peeked his head in quietly. "Astrid?"
turned around, smiling a little. "That was fast. Did y' get the part I was..." She trailed off and stopped talking, looking from Søren to Berwald. "Um...?"
unwillingly followed, he stood back a little bit, staying quiet when he heard her start talking.
smiled. "This is Sve... or Berwald... my bror~" He was beyond excited, and was bouncing a bit because of it.
nodded a little bit. "Ah.. 'M Astrid.. The.. other.. Sweden.." She looked away, feeling a little awkward.
nods to her back. "'S nice t' meet y'." He was a little confused still.
smiled more. "We should all do somethin'... just to get to know each other more! Even though I guess ye two know pretty much about each other..."
nods a little bit. "Ah.. ja.. sure." She walked over to the Dane and took his hand feeling more than a little awkward.
stared at the Dane and the other Swede and their hands. His eyes widened a little. "Are y' t'gether?"
nodded at that, a little proudly in fact. "Kinda ironic, isn't it? But she's a lot better than ye, so that's okay."
"Søren!" She hissed a little. "Don' be rude." She blushed though, looking down.
glared at him slightly. "Shut up, Dan." He said a little coldly.
smirks and tilted his head. "Oh come on, Sve. M'just jokin'. Ye have no sense of humour."
crossed his arms. "Ja ja, bror, whatever y' say." He sighed and turned to head toward the house.
hit Søren's chest lightly. "Be nice.." She said quietly.
chuckles. "He knows I'm just playin'... Ye gonna come with us or work here a bit longer?"
"I'll come with y' if y' want me t'." She shrugged to herself and swung his hand a little bit.
smiles and pulled her along. "I think he's got a lot to adjust to... so it might be good too if ye even talk to him, alone."
sighed quietly, she didn't know if that conversation would be anything less than awkward. "Ja... I could um... try.."
brought her back to the house. "I can even cook dinner for us all... it'l be like old times~"
walked with him, nodding. "Ja.. I guess..." She looked at her feet as they walked.
walked back into the house, going to find the male Swede as well as getting himself a beer. He wanted to see how well these two interacted.
