Week Zero - Tuesday - Lithuania's Room

[Lithuania brings Poland to her room early in the morning on Tuesday. She said she would explain the scars, and she still intends to do that. Of course, she doesn't know how to get started on that topic, so instead she locks the door behind the two of them and... Stands there. Awkwardly. But Poland is probably used to that.

Well, it might be a good idea to let Poland get examining her room out of her system first anyway. Lithuania hasn't done anything at all to it yet except dust it, and of course she's made the bed well enough it looks like it hasn't been slept in.]

[Poland offers Lithuania a pinky.]

I promise.

[She'd already done it for a century, what's an eternity more?]

[In spite of the gravitas of the topic at hand, Lithuania finds herself smiling as she locks her pinky with Poland's.]

Thank you.

[Poland knows that seeing Lithuania smile even under "normal" circumstances is a little hard to come by.

So. She's a little apprehensive to even broach the subject but--]

I mean.

I probably wouldn't ever trust someone who did share something like this with everyone...

Well, of course not. [Lithuania has completely missed any implications Poland might be making.]

I mean it's like, really rude. Especially when it's in published form to read again and again...

Yes...? [???]

I mean!

Who would even do something like that to someone that might even be their own country isn't that like treason or something sure sounds like it...

I don't-- [Wait.] Are you talking about Miata?

[Yes.]

No?

Wait oh my god you're right she totally did do all that stuff?

Wow.

Guess we should be on our toes around her and definitely not just trust her blindly!

[Lithuania's brow furrows immediately.] She said herself she was delivering information for someone else.

Yeah?

She said.

I believe her. [Of course Lithuania does.]

[Of course she does.]

Look! I'm not saying this to make you mad, I just don't want you to end up trusting someone who's working for someone else and might be compromised?

[Why does Lithuania always want to be the pessimist? This sucks.]

I know, and I understand, but-- [But... Lithuania tries to reach for suspicion and finds only a desire to protect.] She didn't seem happy about what she was telling us. She explained what was happening, that's all.
