♕ 1. But he doesn't have a flag

Characters: The Spanish Empire and you
Setting: The cafeteria
Format: Starting prose, matching you.
Summary: This tower is now claimed by the Spanish Empire.
Warnings: Spain is armed! And this is also a reminder that Spain is reset and from Imperial times now.

Of course Spain didn't panicwhen he woke up in a place that wasn't the last place he remembered. Okay, perhaps he panicked a little bit but not too much because empires have nothing to fear, especially when you're the most powerful empire in the world. After reading the letter several times over, he wasn't sure if he believed what it said. In fact, he was quite positive that the letter wasn't true because, well, the end of the world simply was not meant to end that way, at least, not according to his Church. This was a hoax of some sort-- a conspiracy set up by those Protestants-- and while he had no idea where he was, that only meant he had some exploring to do. In his opinion, this tower seemed much more harmless than the Americas. Really, this place was lacking when it came to the poisonous trees, toxic frogs, and hostile natives (or so he thought).

Armed with a sword and dagger, the Spanish empire began to explore. There had to be other people present. There were always people around. After some exploring, he eventually finds himself in the cafeteria. Maybe you're enjoying a meal or maybe you're just socializing or just walking in behind him-- Spain isn't going to pretend to know what you're doing. In fact, that isn't even important right now because Spain has a much more important announcement to make.

"Ay!" Spain yells when he sees people, "I am the Spanish Empire and I claiming this tower for myself! Do you understand?"

Canada sipped her juice, watching what she could only assume was Spain standing over there. With a sword. Huh. . .Oh gosh, was he really from the past or had he ate a bad salad and gone a bit off?

"...I don't think the dozens of other nations will take kindly to this."

[America is tired, frustrated, and sick of this stupid tower and the stupid food and all the stupid lies! So much so that she barely even cares that Spain is a man, calling himself the Spanish Empire and whatever the hell else. She's pretty much just tuned that part out.]

You can have this stupid goddamn tower! God, I sure as hell don't want it.

"Take it, idiota. Nobody wants it, and if it means we can leave, you can have it." Such a bitter voice for such a small woman. Not to mention that glare. "But put down your sword before someone gets hurt. Like yourself."

Really. Don't know why you'd want this ugly as hell place, though. I can pretend to fight you or whatever though, if you wanna look like a badass or what the fuck ever this is all about.

Canada was still unsure about this Spain. Who knew if he really wanted to take over the tower. It would get nowhere of course, but best to cut him off at the pass.

"...We've several? France, South Italy, Germany, Holland, me and America? I'm quite sure they won't agree to this?...Are you really from the time when you were an empire?"

I'll speak however I wa -

She covers her mouth to hide what was surely an impolite laugh. Oh god it had been so long since she'd dealt with the arrogance of empires. Wow, was this man really the same person as the Spain she was familiar with?

"I'm afraid you are not any longer. I'm Canada, from North America, year 2011. You, Spain, have not been an empire for quite some time..."

Oh if he was really an empire with that sort of pride, that may not have been the smartest thing to say.

[Why is England's voice suddenly filling her head?! 'Golly goodness tally-ho oh my don't you ever speak to that Spain she is good for nothing' Well maybe it wasn't exactly like that but still it makes her pause.]

... What the hell?

Romana rolls her eyes as she crosses her arms, staring up at Spain. Lifting an eyebrow she shakes her head. "Idiota. Put that down and sit down. There is nothing of worth in this tower to justify a conquest, okay?"

You can't tell me what to do. You're just a dumb little country. I'm America.

She shook her head quite firmly and settled her hands on her lap.

"2011. I'm the nation of Canada. A former colony of England in Northern America. You're probably quite disoriented right? We've been kidnapped, apparently from different times and universes."

Canada shook her head, raising an eyebrow. This was going to be a struggle apparently.

"I am also a former colony of France and for portions of me, the Netherlands. But it is really the twenty first century--Oh your version of me is male, a tiny child?"

Her arms stay crossed, and soon Romana's foot begins to tap, ever inch of her screaming annoyed woman who shouldn't be crossed. "There's nothing her. Nothing but captivity and death, and reminders of all that we've lost."
