Ooh shiny! [COMPLETE]
Characters: England, Prussia
Date: September 8
Format: Prose
Content Warnings: most likely swearing, also Prussia in a dress.
Summary: England plans on going on a quest to find a gem, since he is a pirate. Prussia invites himself along. They can't stay away from each other, apparently, even though they are enemies. 8I
True to his own determination, England had decided to take on a quest in hopes of raising some money to have his own apartment. It was not that he disliked his roommates, but they were both girls. Besides, England preferred to live alone. Living in such close quarters with two girls made him uncomfortable.
Of course, there were other reasons why he wanted to get his own place, but he felt that he'd keep those a secret. Even he was disappointed in himself for those reasons.
In any case, he was signed up to find a gem in the gnome district. It was part of some wedding ritual, but the best part was that he would get a gem of his own, and he wanted it, regardless of how much it was worth. He could not escape his pirate lust for treasure, so having a gemstone would make him feel happy. He wondered where he would hoard it...
England began his journey to the Gnomish District. He had to go quite a ways, through the upper class neighborhood. That would be alright. He could scope out the area, see if he could find any of the government officials to talk to. He was pretty excited about this quest. He hoped it went smoothly. Now that his injuries were pretty much healed, he didn't think he'd have too much of a problem.
Ah, delicious treasure!

Of course, he will need to rely on that sense for shiny England has. "I know! Why don't you do a magic thing to find the best jewels for us?" Does magic even do that? That would be awesome and profitable if it did!
england is not rarity, prussia
"Besides, that takes all the fun out of searching. Finding treasure is a game. It's supposed to be difficult and exciting!"
but magic '^'
Prussia sneezes. This is so boring already. Why did he agree to come along? Oh right, someone said it was the best quest ever. "Ennnnglaaaannnnd..."
no subject
England finally stopped moving. Yes, this looked like a good place. He could feel it in his bones! With a grin, he held up his hand and snapped his fingers. Suddenly, his clothes transformed into overalls and a tank-top, heavy gloves and boots, and the belt of tools he was given rested around his waist. There, did he look legit, or what?
"Alright, let's have a go at it!" England raised the pickaxe and brought it down on the rock. Hard. The backlash made his whole body tremble cartoonishly and he took several steps back. Okay, so maybe this wouldn't be as easy as he thought.
1/2
sexyEngland... He's all set to continue his whinge when England stops moving so suddenly, causing Prussia to almost run into him. Great. Now wha-"..."
Did he seriously just change his clothes with a snap of his fingers.
no subject
Oh. Well, on second thought, this has potential.
He can't help but snicker madly at how much England failed at splitting the rock open. "K'sesesesese~"
no subject
"Well, why don't you try it, you clumsy oaf!"
no subject
Prussia snickers, before taking up his pickaxe and going over to the rock. Before he does anything else, though, he taps at the rock gently in a few spots. If anything he knows about engineering is applicable to mining, it's that pretty much anything will shatter with the appropriate force applied to just the right spot. Knowing how to destroy shit is useful information.
Hm. Not that any of these surfaces seem likely, but then, he's not into mining or rocks. Just the useful things like iron and coal that come out of the ground. "Hnhhh..." He thinks he can probably break this stupid rock into dust, but then England will get pissed off. "Alright! The awesome me is gonna show you exactly how to mine for precious jewels!"
He straightens up, and raises the pickaxe. When he brings it down, he's mostly letting gravity do the work, although he certainly throws some muscle into the equation. The rock cracks nicely upon impact, a long split stretching from where the tip of his pick rests in the stone. With a smug grin, Prussia lifts the axe. And yes, he is snickering about the matter. "See? It's not that hard!"
