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, England wouldn't voice his concern out loud. No, he just would call Prussia an idiot, like usual.

"...I'll be back." He pushes himself to his feet and disappears into the opening.

He does gasp.
"England, please tell me if nothing else you can magic some of this fucking rock out of the way."
1/2
"I can, but it'll take all the rest of my magic power for the day." Or for longer. He wasn't sure yet. But if Prussia didn't mind doing the mining, he would move the rock. He takes several steps back. "Stand back."
2/2
The rock continued to roll but it took England a few minutes to get it out of the way enough for them to pass through to the other side of it. When he was done, he leaned heavily on Prussia, panting softly.
He hated not being home, hated not having his full strength. Something like this would have been done easily back in their world, he wouldn't have broken a sweat. But now? England felt drained.
Re: 2/2
Before them, with the rock on the other side out of the way, is a cavern glimmering with exposed gemstones and crystal formations. Many of the crystals are easily twice Prussia's size. The gems seem to be nothing to shake a stick at either; their exposed surfaces notably larger than many of the gems they had found in the cavern they came from.
Far above them is a hole that allows light in, though whether it's from the actual surface of this world or merely from the city Prussia doesn't know. Nor does he care because the view before him is absolutely breathtaking regardless.

All that treasure. And he couldn't even stand up and run to it.
He gripped Prussia's jacket and tried to get up straight. Maybe he could just move in down here.
no subject
Though he'd have to draw the line if England seriously suggested moving in down here. Where are the amenities? The comfortable beds? The indoor plumbing?!
no subject
He gently nudges Prussia forward with one hand.
