[Post 049] Video/Action for Fourth Wall
[It is happening again. It is happening again.]
[Wrong canon. France has never seen The Giant, although he would probably confuse him with Goliath more than anything else. And, characteristically, that would make France return to his roots and completely freak out.]
[Still, it has some relevance here. The 'Gear seems to be picking up flashes of different cities and towns around Johto and Kanto, like someone is teleporting from one to the next without any real goal or direction.]
[After what amount to a few hours of this, the transmission seems to shutter, like the 'Gear has been fumbled, and panting becomes audible as the camera is turned to focus on a very wind-swept France whose expression is a strange combination of badly suppressed tension and far too much excitement.]
Has anyone ever noticed that all the towns around here look exactly the same? They have exactly the same shops and exactly the same standard layouts, just with some superficial topographical variations! I've noticed before, of course, but when you see them all together -
[He makes a wide, wild gesticulating motion with his free hand, unable to communicate how unsettling it is. Sure, France has planned cities, but nowhere is entirely planned like this.]
Also, what is with these crystals? They're all over the place!

[France pouts instead, hands going to his own hips.]
I am not creepy! And don't lie to yourself, Prussia: you can't live without my glorious loveliness in your life.
[France keeps a hand on his hip as he cocks it slightly, tapping his other hand's forefinger theatrically to the side of his lips as he thinks.]
Oh, dear, I can't remember something so insignificant. I think you missed out on the biggest event in this place's history, too. How typical.

You are the definition of creepy. The second entry right after Russia in a dictionary.
[Congrats, you are slightly better than Russia. (Ok for real he vastly prefers France over Russia though.)]
Meh.
[Yup, that's what he has to say for your "loveliness".]
Liar! [France receives the biggest, snottiest smirk in response.] You said you missed me [Not denying he missed him is basically admitting it. Too late, no take backs.] so out with it! I bet you counted the days since this place no longer has the benefit of my awesome presence.
[He's preening now. Look what you've done, France.]
I bet it's lame.
[LAME BECAUSE HE WASN'T HERE.]
