 [Action 1 - Hallways]

[Jack's just arrived, and he's still taking this place in.  He's had his test and his placement, but to be honest, that doesn't mean a lot to him, and, well, he's more interested in looking around.  Which is what he's doing.  What he's not doing is paying attention to the people in his surroundings.  Even after spending what seems like weeks with the guardians (was it really all over in a few days?) he's not used to people being able to see him.

Which probably explains why he's trying to walk through people, and still not learning his lesson.]

Oof-- I'm sorry!  Are you okay?  [He'll offer a hand if they've been knocked to the ground, or lean over to pick up anything they've dropped, a little flustered.]

[Action 2 - Boy's Dorm]

[The door to his room's still open and he's holding up his uniform, face a picture of distaste.]  They expect us to wear this?  [No one mention how old fashioned his trousers are or stained his jumper.]

Well, all countries are like me. In way of... being someone, that is. Not in way of being my age or looking like me or things like that.

[Mirroring the action, the brunet will sit down as well.] The Easter Bunny? No, I only know Santa Claus, so to speak. [Not well, but they have met - and the name is different, but same same.] You'd probably have to ask Australia, he has the bunny issues.

[Jack cackles at that.] With a hopping great kangaroo like that one you'd think he has problems. [Oh, if only Bunny was here.]

North's all right. And I guess you won't have met Toothiana, since she hasn't been out in so long. You might have seen one of her fairies. [He reaches into his pocket, half expecting to find the warm little body of Baby Tooth there, but of course she's not and his expression falls a little.] You might have met Sandy, though?

Maybe they are all more active on the northern half of the planet? Though I've never heard of them either, but that might not mean much... if we are even from the same world.

[Kiwi looks at the other thoughtfully.] There are people from a lot of different worlds here, so that might not be the case. Maybe you could describe the person that works on Christmas? Then we can see if they match up.

[Jack hadn't even considered that New Zealand might be from a different world than him. After all, there's a New Zealand in his.]

North? Uh, well, he's tall. At least a foot, maybe a foot and a half taller than me. Russian too, tends to take things literally. White beard down to his stomach, and 'naughty' tattooed on one arm, 'nice' on the other.
longwhitecloud: (☆ Well that was unexpected)

[personal profile] longwhitecloud 2013-01-26 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
...Well, mine is kind of Russian too, but I think he'd take offence if you called him that above everything else. [Trying to compare all the other things.] And I don't know about tatoos, but he definitely isn't tall and doesn't have a beard. Your description sounds more like Russia or Sweden, though they don't have beards, either...

[Thinking hard on this.] Your one sounds more like people would imagine him, though.

[A bit disappointedly:] we really seem to be from different worlds.
snowguardian: (Wonder)

[personal profile] snowguardian 2013-01-27 02:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Kind of Russian? Well, I dunno if North actually is Russian or not. I mean, I assume Bunny isn't actually Australian unless someone's forgotten to mention the six foot bunnies bouncing around, but he sure as hell sounds it.

Our worlds can't be that different, anyway. [A thought occurs to him and he leans over.] If there's a different Santa in your world, is there a different Jack Frost?

If you are like us at all... You know, there is a nation who looks somewhat like you. More than one, but one more than others. [Not commenting on character or alignment just because that seems a bit unfair coming from someone who knows most European nations mostly through the stories of another European nation, and that means that a lot of perspective probably found its way into the descriptions and judgements...]

Though he isn't one of the nations that have a greater affinity with the cold from what I've heard. [The nation has to think of one of the stories that Russia entertained the dominion with once when England along with a few of his territories had a meeting with the other empire and the child got lost in the large foreign building, only to be found by the tall man who took care of the brunet - until England found them and all hell broke loose] He once went on a frozen lake with his army, the ice cracked under their feet and most of them drowned. So I guess that's not really his element.

[Jack's was eager to hear more, but that tale quiets him down. In the end, though, a smile curves his lips again, even if this time it doesn't reach his eyes.] I dunno, he might be more like me than you think.

[But he wants to move swiftly on from that thought, so he's already trying to prompt another.] So, tell me what your America is like.

[The brunet's eyes stay on the expression for a moment, noticing how the smile doesn't reach the other's eyes, but respects the decision to move on. Sometimes that is how you do it best.]

He's pretty unreliable and obnoxious, but also loud and approachable and very... open? [Trying to piece together a description.] I mean, he easily approaches other people when they don't expect anything from him politically. Not someone that I would want to fight next to, but someone who'd probably make a good mate for a game or a trip to the bar.

[Jack's smile does reach his eyes this time, as he relaxes completely again, moment put aside.]

So there really is a person for each country. I guess that brings a whole new meaning to international relationships... [He chuckles to himself. But it still doesn't seem that unfamiliar to him - a guardian for each country seems sensible. Then again...]

Can't say that I know much about New Zealand, but I wouldn't have marked you down as one to be carrying explosives around.

[Well... Now the question would be what time that Jack is from and if things happen in the same way in his world.] Has there been a thing called World War in your world? Or maybe it is there right now?
snowguardian: (What)

[personal profile] snowguardian 2013-01-27 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, yeah, but that was ages ago. [Not even Jack for all his isolation could miss that one.] Which one?
longwhitecloud: (☆ I don't want to die.)

[personal profile] longwhitecloud 2013-01-27 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[The shocked silence should be rather telling. It takes a bit until the words come out, but when, they sound almost pressed.]

There will be more than one? [This one is bad enough, causing deaths upon deaths - sure, not being used to wars of a larger scale makes it even harder to take for New Zealand than it does for England and the others, but that is not the point. The point is that this one is seriously bad enough, and if there are more... how many?]
