EMERGENCY! PLEASE HELP!

Alright, so I have a friend online named Tabby whose a precious tumblr rp buddy of mine and sweet friend on skype. This is her blog here. And proof of what I’m saying here.

She needs serious help and while I had wanted her to stay with me, unfortunately it’s not a decision I can make on my own and can’t seem to gain.

So I honestly would like to help her out in any way I can and thus I am asking everyone on tumblr if possible to send some donations via paypal. She is on the streets and has no home to go to and in puerto rico that’s highly dangerous. 

Her paypal is; tabby.angela@hotmail.com

Also, for her sake I plan on taking commissions now for writing or drawing. A simple sketch will be $3. A colored character (B&W) $5 and Color in ($6.) If you want to know my art style go to my old deviant art account here or here to my tumblr sketches.

My paypal; kurovixen@gmail.com

Please help, I don’t want the worst to happen to her and she only has three days before she loses it all.

(( Scotland Admin: Just to let you all know we're still alive, and that I have finally obtained a tablet, I have decided to post this picture of this sheep. You have no idea how angry my tablet made me when it wouldn't work... Canada Admin taught me that all I needed to do to make it work was add a battery. I literally, I'm not kidding, started crying. Like a sissy. I was very very very upset. Canada Admin had to drag me back to my computer to see that it was working again.

...

So, with that established, I'm very bad with computers.

Thank you for reading this. And thank you for following us. We'll try to get back active on this page as soon as we can, however, we've been rather busy. Thanks again! ))

[ Canada Admin: I apologize for not having been on for a while >.< College has kept both me and S!A pretty busy as she already mentioned. Finals are coming up and such, so we've had an interesting time trying to juggle this and homework >_>0 Anywho, this is one of the final projects I did for the drawing class S!A and I are in. I think I've put about seven hours into this sucker, so I'm actually rather happy with how it turned out~ ^.^

Back to the matter at hand however... We should be back on more often come Christmas break. We'll actually have time again ^_^0 Thanks again for all the love guys~! ]

[askscotcan]

[ Scotland Admin ;; Well, sorry for being gone for forever... but, right now, me and Canada Admin are very... very... very busy. We're getting ready for finals here ( Have I forgot to mention that Canada Admin is actually my roommate? :'3 ) and we currently don't have much time to be online. So, until we can get back, we're going on a short Hiatus. I think that's how you spell the word. -snickers- If not, Canada admin will spell it right, probably, when she gets to making her post.

You see this picture? It's actually one of the things I'm getting done for our very near finals. -sighs- We have just a few weeks left until Christmas vacation, and can't wait. -smiles- All the same, have a picture of Prussia~ <3 And, we'll be back as soon as Finals are over and through. -nods- B'D ]

St. Andrew's Day

Title: St. Andrew’s Day

Summary: Everything was prepared. He wasn’t used to doing this, so maybe it wasn’t quite perfect. Regardless, Matthew figured it was close enough for the Scot’s tastes. Now all he had to do was wait.

Pairing: Fluffy!ScotCan ( Scotland|Canada )

[ Canada!Admin: I decided I wanted to write a one-shot for Scotland's birthday. Enjoy~! ]

- - - - - - - -

Today was St. Andrew’s Day. The day the Scottish people celebrated their patron saint. This was also the day Roth celebrated his birthday…

… That is if he would ever celebrate it.

There were no decorations adorning the walls or the table. No balloons, no enormous amount of people waiting in the living room or kitchen. It was just Matthew, sitting alone at the dining table. Roth knew he was coming, though the younger man hadn’t specified when. As proof of that, the redhead had left a note, addressed to the Canadian, on the fridge. The contents were basic: he’d just stepped out to get a few things and would be back soon. It was signed in a script that was truly uniquely Roth’s own.

Despite the man’s rough demeanor, the Scotsman’s handwriting was anything but. The blonde couldn’t help but compare it to satin. He held the pen with a good bit of pressure, but it was consistent, and the lines smoothly flowed one into another. Matthew glanced down at the paper in his hand again. Yes… dark satin was what it reminded him of. Seeing the signature at the bottom made his lips twitch into a gentle smile.

Glancing at the clock again, Matthew sighed softly. It’d been fifteen minutes since he’d arrived. The Scot was sure to be home soon. Shifting a bit in his chair, the blonde bent his knees, crossing his legs at his ankles beneath the chair. His arms felt a bit empty without Kumajirou to hold on to. He’d let the small bear go not long after arriving at Roth’s house. The creature insisted on seeing Nessie. It was surprising how well the two got along.

Glancing back at the table, the Canuck realized he hadn’t really brought much: just a plate of cookies, a small cake, and a wrapped parcel. Still, he was sure the Scotsman would insist it was more than enough…

The cookies were specifically shortbread “biscuits” Matthew corrected himself. He was in the United Kingdom right now after all… Nonetheless, they were a traditional shortbread recipe that Roth had given him many years ago. However, the blonde didn’t stop there. On top of each of the biscuits, Matthew had added a thin layer of maple icing that he typically used with a bunt cake. The result was really quite delicious, the Canuck was proud to admit. He’d gotten most of his culinary skills from Francis after all, he knew his way around the kitchen rather well…

Speaking of which, the cake was also a traditional Scottish recipe that Matthew had managed to dig up. A honey and whiskey cake with a butter frosting that the younger man was fairly sure Roth would approve of. He’d tried a test run of the cake last week only to have it scarfed up nearly entirely by his dear brother Alfred. Matthew was pretty sure he’d only gotten one slice of that cake… Regardless, that was proof enough for him that it must’ve at least been decent.

Finally, the parcel… The Canadian was never quite sure of what to get the redheaded Kirkland. It always took him hours upon hours of thought to come up with something to give the man. He had never been a very materialistic person, neither of them had, which tended to make giving the other gifts a bit of a challenge. He’d succeeded all the same though. He just hoped Roth would like it…

The opening of the front door caused Matthew to jump slightly. The Canadian got to his feet when he heard the Scotsman slipping off his boots. He started heading for entryway of the kitchen to greet the other.

“’Re ye ‘n th’ k’tchen, Mattie?” he called out to the blonde who hadn’t quite made it to the threshold. It wasn’t very difficult to recognize the extra pair of shoes at the door.

Matthew, who had made it to the entryway, rested his shoulder against the doorframe of the kitchen as he smiled at the other, “Yeah, I’m right here.”

Getting the second boot off with little effort, Roth tilted his head up and greeted the younger nation with a small, crooked grin, “So ye are.”

The Canadian gave a short, airy laugh, waving one of his hands slightly, “So I am. Happy birthday, Roth,” Matthew smiled gently at the other.

Picking back up the previously discarded bag from his shopping trip, the Scottish man strode over to him, slipping his free arm around Matthew’s waist. “Don’ remind me…” he chuckled softly, pressing his forehead to the younger male’s. “Bu’ thanks, laddie,” Roth added, offering the blonde one of his rare, gentle smiles.

“Of course,” Matthew answered, kissing the redhead’s nose in response. He really did love that smile of his. It had a tendency to leave him breathless.

“So th’n,” Roth cleared his throat, removing his arm from the other’s waist. “Wha’ exac’ly did ye ‘ave planned fer taday?” he asked, setting the bag down on the kitchen counter.

The Canuck slipped over to the table to retrieve the parcel he’d wrapped. “Nothing really. I just made some sweets for you,” Matthew gestured toward the table.

“Oh?” Roth turned his head to glance at the table. “Well lookit tha’,” the Scot chuckled, inspecting the confections. “Is tha’…? Ye made a whisky an’ honey cake?” the redhead asked, one of his thick eyebrows arched curiously.

Matthew nodded, “I did. And-ah, the shortbread biscuits were made from the recipe you gave me. I just added the maple icing for a personal touch I guess,” he continued with a small shrug, a light dusting a pink settling over his cheeks.

A low, amused chuckle emitted from Roth’s throat, “Yer blushin’, kiddo.”

The Canadian’s blush only darkened after having it pointed out. Pointedly ignoring that fact however, Matthew offered out the wrapped parcel to his boyfriend. “This is for you, too.”

Roth blinked a few times at the small, rectangular object that was being offered out to him. Grasping the offered parcel, he examined it carefully. The box was about seven-by-seven centimeters, and four centimeters tall. It seemed to have a solid weight to it as well… “Do ye wan’ me ta open it n’w?” he questioned, running one of his thumbs over the smooth wrapping paper.

“If you’d like,” Matthew answered with a nod, his blush still remaining.

Deciding he’d rather know than not, the older nation tore off the wrapping paper to reveal a glossy black box. After finding the seam, Roth carefully flipped open the lid to see what exactly the younger man had gotten him. The sight caused a bit of air to get stuck in his throat. “Sh’t, Mattie… Wh’re did ye even…?”

Removing the object with a good deal of care, the redhead marveled silently at the beautifully engraved pocket-watch in his hands. It was obviously made of silver, with intricate, thistle designs engraved on the face cover. The chain was also silver and about thirty centimeters in length. Pressing the nub located atop the winding mechanism, Roth opened the cover to inspect the face of the watch. Roman numerals were placed around the center, along with multiple smaller dials to keep track of the date. It was truly a lovely pocket-watch.

Matthew was silent, observing as his boyfriend inspected his gift. Once the other’s emerald eyes flicked up to meet his, the quiet Canuck spoke tentatively, “Do you like it?”

Slipping his free hand around the smaller man’s waist, which earned him a startled noise from the blonde, Roth pulled Matthew into a gentle hug. Grinning crookedly, the Scot spoke against the other’s neck, “It’s a beaut’. I love i’,” he thanked, pressing his lips to the skin he found.

Matthew blushed brighter before wrapping his arms around the other man’s neck and shoulders. “I’m glad. It took me forever to figure out something to get you.”

“Ya know I’d be ‘appy wit’ anythin’ I git from ye,” Roth spoke honestly, raising his head to rest his forehead against Matthew’s. Pocket-watch still in hand, the redhead slipped his other arm around the Canadian’s back.

“I know,” the blonde smiled shyly up at his boyfriend.

“Good,” Roth chuckled, tilting his head to press a short, firm kiss to the other’s lips.

After the short kiss, Matthew’s fingers toyed with the fine hairs located at the base of the Scotsman’s neck. “So,” he spoke, filling the content silence. “It’s your birthday. What would you like to do?”

A wicked, crooked grin spread across the redhead’s face that caused a longing jolt up the Canadian’s spine. “Do ye really ‘ave to ask me tha’, Mattie?” he teasingly questioned. “I would’ve figured ye’d ventured a guess b’ n’w,” he chuckled, just barely catching sight of the blush that continued to spread across Matthew’s cheeks before pressing an evocative kiss against the younger’s lips.

Both knew this was going to be a good birthday.

[ Canada Admin: Woot~ We've reached 100+ followers! You guys are so awesome~ I apologize I haven't answered any questions today, but I did do a quick sketch and coloring of Devil!Scotland. "Rev" is the name he goes by, as it's safer for a devil to use an alias. In the verse S!A and I use, actual names are a form of power over a devil/angel, so he chooses to go by a nickname instead. I did this mainly to compare Scotland with Devil!Scotland. As you can see... they're very similar ^.^0 The main difference is their eye color... ]

scotland and canada, when did you realize you liked the other/what made you realize

Matthew Williams (Canada): [/Blinks and then smiles]... I think I answered something like this earlier... Regardless, I'd be happy to answer it in more detail. I believe I first started to get an inkling regarding my feelings a few months before Roth was going to head back to his homeland. I... really wasn't sure how I was going to handle it [/small laugh]. Was I supposed to tell him? Or would that just make things awkward between us? [/Shakes head] I tried not to think about it too much, as I didn't want us to end up parting on bad terms. So... I kept my mouth shut, and I let him leave without saying anything to him.

[/Sighs] After he left... I have to admit I didn't take it very well. I was in a bit of a slump for a few years. Pursuing my independence was honestly the only thing that kept me going for after a while. The easiest way I would get the chance to see Roth again would be if I was my own nation, rather than the United Kingdom's Dominion.

Seven years after he left, the year I gained my independence from Britain, I started sending Roth letters. To this day I don't know exactly what happened to those letters, but they never made it to their destination. Years passed, and after never receiving a response, I began to think that I was only annoying him. I believed there was no way he actually wanted to see me again...

... so I cried. And cried.

That's when I think I fully realized the extent of my feelings for Roth. I simply broke down, curled up on my couch (the one that he had replaced for me), and I didn't move. [/Small sad smile] I think I stayed like that for a few days... I'm not really sure anymore. Regardless, I stayed there until Alfred came over to congratulate me on my independence. That was... a bit of a shocker for him I think. To this day, I still don't know how he managed to convince me not to give up hope, but he did.

So, after speaking with my twin, I was up and about again, with a new realization: I loved Roth. [/Laughs lightly] I wasn't sure what I was going to do... It took me a while before I was able to get back into my daily routine.

Life continued as before for some time. It wasn't until 2010 that I ran into Roth again. We ended up exchanging numbers and kept in contact through texts. I was beyond overjoyed, this was the happiest I'd felt in years. After visiting back and forth for a few months, Roth confronted me one day with his feelings, and I was quick to reciprocate. [/Smiles brightly, blushing lightly] We've been a couple ever since.

[askscotcan]

scotland and canada, how long have you two been together?

Roth Kirkland ( Scotland ) :: "How long 'ave we been together? Ah, somewhere 'round one 'nd a half years now, I think? Maybe two." He laughs. "I 'aven't been payin' very close attention. When we started datin' that was th' only thing I thought 'bout... not what day it was." Amused. "I don't think he knows anymore accurately then I, when it comes to that."

[askscotcan]

(( Scotland Admin ;; I am late in responding to this, I am very very very late. But, here's to let you know~ <3 I'm thrilled to hear it! ))

wanna--be-a-pasta ;; "Thanks for following me, i love you're blog! i hadn't really thought of Canada and Scotland being together and then I came across your blog and you convinced me! It's become my otp ^^ They're so awesome together, I love how you portray the two :)" Roth Kirkland ( Scotland ) ;; "Ye 'ave no idea how happy ye made my admin by sendin' this message, friend." He says with a small grin, shaking his head, and smiling. "Admin also saw that ye said ye liked many different fandoms, so she went and drew us in th' style of a fandom she liked as well, hopin' ye liked it. Uta no Prince-sama, I think..." Confused, but shrugs. "Yep... it's weird fer me ta see this picture. But, hey, hope yer happy with the picture. She personally likes this one a lot." With that, he shrugs, and smiles a little. "Happy ta 'ave ye as a follower, friend." ((  We weren't trying to convert anyone... but you have no idea how happy I am that you love the pairing now too. -grins- ))

[askscotcan]

would it be ok with you guys if I created an ask scotcan blog? I'll only do it if you're ok with it. it will be different from yours of course

(( Scotland Admin ;; Sweetheart, we'd be thrilled. -grins- So long as you let us follow you~ <3 We were hoping that our blog would help increase the amount of fanart and such these two got, and we'd be happier then anything to see your ScotCan blog as well. :'D -grins- You have our complete approval. ))

[askscotcan]

(( Scotland Admin ;; Yep, it's me again~ Don't mind me as I spam our blog as I do sometimes. I've fallen behind on my responsibility to respond to people, and I shall remedy that as quickly as possible. :'3 I've been drawing for many hours to make sure these get out today. -nods- ))

Toraku asked ;; "Scotland and Canada, when did you realize you liked the other/what made you realize?"

Roth Kirkland ( Scotland ) ;; "I remember answerin' somethin' akin to this before, but... I don't mind elaboratin'. I'll admit ta 'avin' been fairly vague th' first time. So, with that, 'ere..." Roth stops for a second, closing his eyes, and thinking on it.

"I realized that I felt strongly fer him in th' last few months before I moved back ta Scotland. But it didn't really sink in that I thought I might 'ave even stronger feelin' then that, until I went back home. I started feelin' homesick, not for Scotland, not fer th' Kirkland estate, where me 'nd my family take turns livin' from time to time... not fer my little house in th' highlands... But for Canada. For Matthew's lil house that I'd done my fair share of damage too. For th' smell of coffee and pancakes in th' mornin'... I ignored it. I tried ta, at least. But I started sendin' him letters." Roth stops for a bit, sighing. "My letter's never reached him, from what I understand... It was, upsettin', I thought he wanted ta try ta forget 'bout me, because I was sort of a trouble-maker, I'll admit. I'd destroyed more then a few things 'round his house... perhaps he was sick of me?"

Roth stops again, sighing. "I planted a maple tree at my house... already half-grown, I'd had it flown in. A weird request, my family had said, but I didn't give a damn. I took care of it, 'nd I tended to linger 'round it when I had spare time..." He frowns. "I remember one time in particular, when it neared winter 'nd th' leaves began to fall, my chest hurt. My eyes stung... I hated myself fer bein' so pathetic, but I wanted ta head back. I wanted to go see Matthew, 'nd just talk. Laugh. Live together 'gain. I realized... I hated bein' without him. 'nd then I realized, I really did love him. I wanted his opinion. I wanted ta hear his voice. I wanted to just be 'round each other, like we had been before..." "'nd, th' rest is history. With that realization, I tried ta ignore it again... least til I ran into him face ta face 'gain. We talked. We laughed... I blurted out like a fool how I felt, 'nd he responded. So~ There ye go." Roth says, smiling a little.

[askscotcan]

(( Scotland Admin ;;If people are sending hate mail to get pictures, all they have to do is ask~ <3 If not? :'3 Well, whatever~ Here's me giving zero fucks. ))

Hate!Anon ;; " I don’t know which I hate more you two together or America and England. Both make me sick."

Roth Kirkland ( Scotland ) ;; Roth laughs a little now, grinning some. "Our relationship, admittedly, has had it's share of people disapprovin'. I know Arthur wasn't so thrilled, 'nd I know th' rest of my family was a lil worried 'bout it. But, regardless..." He snickers, laughing. "We make ye sick, do we? Well~ A very important person in my life once told me that th' best way fer ye ta feel better when sick, is ta throw up. 'ere, hope it helps~" (( Scotland Admin officially... gives zero fucks about this Anon's opinion. :'3 ))

[askscotcan]

(( Scotland Admin ;;Damn I've been lazy lately... O.o; It was my Birthday yesterday, so... I didn't really want to do anything productive these last few days. Regardless, it's my turn to answer a few things as well, so that you get both responses. So~ With that, here we go. ))

Toraku Asked ;; "Scotland and Canada, what did you guys do for your first date?"

Roth Kirkland ( Scotland ) ;; "Well, as Mattie said, we went to th' quarries. It was the only real date we've been on... it was sort of a relaxation thing. It was a good long hike there, we even ran into a deer on th' way." He snickers some. "It was a lot of fun, I'll be honest. I enjoyed myself." With that, he shrugs. "We spent a lot of th' day there, shoppin', then headin' out to eat." (( Most of the things I'll be posting today aren't finished. I have to outline them and color them still, like a lot of my other things. I just need to get in a coloring mood... -laughs- :'3 ))

[askscotcan]

I dont know which I hate more you two together or America and England. Both make me sick.

Matthew Williams (Canada): Oh? Is that so? [/Small laugh] Think what you will. Our relationship has faced quite a bit of disapproval from multiple fronts. And guess what? We're still here. The last thing I need is your approval.

[ Canada Admin: [/Laughs] I'm almost starting to think these hate!anons just want pictures. Regardless, here you go~ XP A special guest appearance from Alfred and Arthur. I'm actually rather enjoyed drawing this picture. Enjoy these four characters flashing their inverse V-signs and middle fingers; the translation is the same. I do hope you've got a bucket ready in case you vomit, hate!anon... ]
