note/private conversation day 11

[vytis]

Meet at my cabin at around noon, okay?

[And at noon, Lithuania will be ready. His room is as neat as always, but this time he has alcohol! Because this seems like a good time for alcohol, okay?]

( He'll reach into his coat and hold out a folded note from Ciel. )

Ciel's last request for me. ( A bittersweet smile. Over five hundred years old and these things never get easier. ) I'm not opposed to breaking alliances, my friend, but there are some things I would like to keep.

[vytis]

[Lithuania smiles a little.] Well, he certainly won't be happy with today, will he? You should stick around, then.

I'll take care of it. Just do your best with the clues.

[pasodoble]

( He winces at Lithuania's determination, )

I can't say I am either. ( Holding his face in his hands and moaning some. ) Are you sure?

It wouldn't be the first time we've been on the wrong side before...

[vytis]

I'm sure we need more time. I'm definitely sure we're not going to get it with the current efficiency of our group.

You can keep checking prey. It might be best to drag out the game as long as possible, you know? Don't let the prey win but don't let the wolves take it, either.

[pasodoble]

I know winning is bad but losing doesn't sound so good either.

I can buy us time but I can't postpone a result forever.

[vytis]

[Lithuania is silent while he thinks.] Keep searching for wolves, then. We have an advantage already, right? Maybe that little bit will be all we need.

[pasodoble]

... You better be right about all of this.

( And he's getting up to leave now. )

[vytis]

If you don't think I am, you can keep trying to win. [Lithuania watches Spain leave.] If I slow you down a little, that shouldn't be too much trouble.

[pasodoble]

( Just a cheerful smile back at Lithuania and say again, )

We've been on the wrong side before.

[vytis]

So we'll hedge our bets on opposite sides.

Good luck, Ispanija.
