[Video - Open]

[Live from Prussia's apartment, it's ill-advised video call time!]

You know why so many names are on this Null hit list right? Cuz we're not stupid. We're not falling for their shit. And if you are, then you're just as dumb as they are. Doubly so if you're the person who's been selling us out.

Anyway, I'm not afraid of you guys, or the Null, or the gods! So if you plan to come after me, know that I'm armed and I'm awesome.

[He gives the camera a confident grin and a wink.

Prussia looks down at his phone for a moment and looks over the list of names. It keeps getting bigger and bigger.]

...Is there really someone here named "Taako Taaco"? [He forgets he actually met this person.]



[Action - semi-closed to Yukari and others]

[Prussia really does have all the confidence in the world about his survival, and maybe too much faith that no one here is actually going to start murdering each other. But just in case, he takes up his duty as a Guard member and heads out to make sure no one is trying anything funny. He's carrying his broadsword nonchalantly over his shoulder, and is even whistling cheerily to himself. What he doesn't know is that there actually is someone who's out to get people, and they have some unsettled business. Thanks to Prussia's casual strolling, Yukari has a good chance of getting the jump on him, too.]

[[OOC - other people can jump in to the Prussia/Yukari fight, but keep in mind that A) Prussia is losing, B) let Yukari tag in this first and C) please keep it all to one thread. Thanks!]]

Yukari clicks his tongue in mock disapproval.

"Gilbert-chan, what will you do now? Just as futile as you've always been."

A sigh, and Yukari actually gives a glimpse of a forlorn expression.

"You know, I really hate bullying, and normally I would spare you. But it's your life or his, and I choose him."

[Prussia tries to ignore Yukari's mocking, doing everything he can to push him away. But that last line catches him off guard. Yukari is doing this to spare someone else?]

I don't know what the Null told you... But you're an idiot for believing them.

[fracturedbeauty]

Too bad that's only your opinion. You see, you know nothing of the Null. You have no veritable truth that they are the ones who are the ulitimate destruction, nor if they are the ones who bear lies. You could very well be on the wrong side, Gilbert-chan.

Too bad for you that I'll end your life before you get the chance to swear allegience to them. I'd really rather only have to kill one, you see. It's all I need to get what I want.

[occupiesvitalregions]

What's the point of killin' someone who comes back in a few days anyway? [Not that he wants to rely on that. Who knows when that little benefit might end? It doesn't make this idea any easier.]

And so could you! I'm only on my side, and I won't lose that way.

[fracturedbeauty]

You don't think that perhaps they've created some way to prevent those that die from coming back? If he would simply come back, I'd certainly be less worried, don't you think? Come now, surely you aren't that naïve?

[occupiesvitalregions]

[Prussia tried to stretch towards his sword, but was going nowhere. But damnit, he was going to try.]

They can't do shit to us from wherever they're hiding.

[He is worried about that, though. He'd been worried about it since before he even got to Hadriel. Prussia was running on borrowed time.]

[fracturedbeauty]

You really believe that? Do tell me, then. If they aren't capable, explain how they got the God Killers into Hadriel. That certainly doesn't seem like they're capable of only nothing without our help. It simply means that our help would be more useful than anything else.

[Blood starts to drip to the ground from Yukari's side, and he gives a faint huff of frustration, then swiftly trades it for a chuckle.]

Well, now, as fun as this has been, I do believe your time is up. Goodbye, Gilbert-chan. Perhaps whatever afterworld awaits you will be more suitable.

[With that, he sends a much more massive charge of Electricity toward the former-nation. He's going to resist using his sword if he can, since he doesn't want to exacerbate the injury even further.]
