 The Other World Kingdom ♀ Patricia Novak
When Patricia returned to her dorm, she was disappointed to realize that the only swimsuit she had brought was a bikini. She never really cared for revealing clothes, unless she was with one of her slaves, and while bikinis were suitable in some cases, when she was around this boy she would really prefer a one piece. After changing, she grabbed her whip, just to be safe. Then she returned to Landon's dorm.
For a moment as she walked down the hallway, her cheeks flushed red and without her crown, necklace, or hairclip, she almost looked like the sweet innocent girl she once was, before she became the sadistic micronation she is today. But then, as she saw Landon standing outside his dorm, she scowled again, ruining the illusion, though her blush still remained, lessening the effect of the scowl. She was unhappy that he had left the dorm, but she knew she couldn't say anything, since she hadn't been specific about where "here" was. Next time I'll be more specific. She thought. "Okay let's go." She said. The only reason she was waiting for him was because she didn't know where this beach was.

Landon smiled mischievously at the sight of Patricia walking down the hallway in a bikini, blushing beet-red as if the indignity of being so scantily clad was threatening to overwhelm her. Intentionally not helping her situation at all, he wolf-whistled at the micro-nation as she approached, earning a murderous scowl for his efforts. Thankfully, Gran did not become curious at the high-pitched noise and poke his head out to investigate. That could very well have been the end of his escapade.
When the Other World Kingdom voiced her readiness to go surfing, Landon bounced away from the wall like a spring and snagged her hand. “Woohoo! Let’s roll!” he cheered, practically sprinting down the hall and hauling the hapless micro along with him to the beach.

The Natural State of Arkansas/Olivia
Olivia had given up on California. So instead of making up a perfectly good retort, she had curled up and taken a little nap, notebook of healing spells shoved under her pillow. At that moment, she really didn't care if she missed any of her classes or that shiz.
-
After a while of usellesly blending into the background while so many people came and went, Olivia was awoken by her kitty. The white cat was furiously licking Olivia's face, trying to get her to wake up. Olivia chuckled and rolled out of bed. After quickly brushing her hair and wiping off any drool, Olivia grabbed her messenger bag, jammed her notebook and pencil pouch into it, and basically sprinted out the door. Maybe she could find some other States to hang out with or something!

Landon awoke as early as he normally did, which meant that he had exactly twenty minutes to bail and go to class. He noticed that Olivia’s belongings had shifted on her bed, which meant she was either already up and gone or had come back while he was out. Sophie’s possessions, however, had not moved, and Landon could not even find her owl Reznov. California found his central-Southern sister in the kitchen eating breakfast and, after cramming a few waffles into his mouth, tore out of the room.
“See ya later, Olivia; Sophie!” he called as a formality as he left.

Landon stormed away to the dorms and found his after creating rather more ruckus than was at all necessary to walk over to it. He unlocked the door and flounced onto his bed stomach-first, propping his chin so that it sank into the center of his pillow, hardly noticing the fact that Gran was gone again. It pissed him off to no end that his Southern brothers--even Rutilio!--would lie just so that they could screw around together and more our less literally leave him to the dogs. Hadn't there been a time when California and Florida shared everything with each other, when there were no secrets between two of the oldest Spanish colonies?
Unconsciously, Landon's thoughts began to drift back to the best moments of his long history with Rutilio. He remembered the joy he'd felt every time Florida paid him a visit at Mexico's place, how quickly Florida had eclipsed Mexico in his youthful affections, how happy they had been when California had joined the Union. He remembered his own eagerness at discovering the various metals buried under his soil that Maria hadn't had the chance to find, from gold to silver to silicon, and Florida's almost-pleading desire to copy his entrepreneurial innovations. From filming to Disney, from national parks to Universal Studios, he and Rutilio had shared the best of American industry and grown powerful together. Heck, he had even tried to get Georgia and the rest of the Union in on the cinema craze, and Georgia had pulled it off with aplomb, which was more than could be said for some of the other states. The three of them, and New York, should all be best friends because of this common tie, if nothing more. Yet seeing Christian far too close to Rutilio had sent him off the deep end. Why?
Landon was too angry to think about that answer right now. However much his anger might have been dissipated by the happy recollections, it was not so much gone that California could or would think the recent events over rationally. Under other circumstances, the best option would be to take a nap and sleep this off, but the day was still young and the state was still too charged with adrenaline to fall sleep anyway. So what was a pissed Californian to do?

… Of course! Many times after the advent of Pong and Pac-Man, Landon had run to the nearest arcade to pour his stress into a mindless video game. There had to be an arcade near this school, right? What harm could occur—to anything but the video game itself—if California vented into a machine? The machine itself probably wouldn’t fare so well after a doubly charged (by post-electoral victory and plain old adrenaline) Golden State lit into it, though; but that seemed to him a small price to pay for the best stress relief there was!

… Landon had whipped out his 3DS and begun grinding through the story of his RPG game. He had already played every version of Super Smash Bros to date, but Nintendo had just released the beta version of the newest—and first portable—installment to the series, and this was a novelty that California intended to enjoy to the fullest. He was already enamored with the game, particularly with its custom character features. Normally, he pumped out a few horribly mutated amalgamations of the existing characters so that he could have the satisfaction of ‘defeating’ certain atrocities in the genetic engineering department, but this time he was fighting digitally against two characters who resembled those he had just been fighting an hour ago.
As satisfying as the new character butt-kicking had been, Landon did eventually grow bored with it all. It had taken him quite a few hours to get bored, though, which was longer than he normally played on a plotless game in one sitting. The Californian was getting hungry, and he didn’t feel like cooking today, so he decided to pack up his electronics and hop on over to a restaurant. There must be one near or on-campus; and if not, there had to be several in the human town beyond.

… It was a rather satisfied—in the stomach—Landon that returned to his dorm after dinner. He was feeling too energetic to sleep, so he merely sat on his bed and turned on his laptop. Every time he finished a meal, he didn’t want to sleep immediately after. The energy surge was just too precious to waste sleeping. He tinkered around on his computer for some time, eventually drifting to iMovie and the botched film that may have sparked the whole interstate conflict in the first place.

California was surprised to realize that he was only moderately enjoying messing with Christian’s and Rutiilo’s 3D models in iMovie, even after he had successfully parodied a full episode of the Three Stooges with them and his own avatar. The day’s events must really be getting to him. Landon decided that the best way to get over it all was sleep.
… Little did he know that his dreams would be plagued with them anyways.

 The Other World Kingdom ♀ Patricia Novak
When Gran tore the bag open, she immediately bent down to pick it up, not knowing that the bear had torn it. However, when she saw the bear munching on the fish, she decided to leave it. After all, that was what she bought it for.
She waited a moment for the bear to finish, then started off back towards her dorm, where she assumed it was going. But the bear, it seemed, had other plans, as she realized when it stopped in front of California's dorm. She had just walked past the dorm when she realized she no longer hear the sound of a small bear wandering close behind her. She stopped for a moment, looked down, and, seeing that Gran wasn't there anymore, turned around to find him. She hadn't lost him, had she? Her worry only lasted a moment though, as she soon spotted the little bear right outside of Landon's dorm. She looked relieved for a moment, then nervous. Should she go in? There was no need to now, right? Especially if California was in there. She didn't particularly want to see that state, not now. She pushed the door open to let the bear and started to walk away.

Landon tossed and turned rather more frequently than he normally did while sleeping, as his own subconscious did not want him to forget his actions today. It came as something of a respite when the door to his dorm creaked open and a familiar weight assaulted his chest.
“Oof!” Landon cried out, sitting bolt upright as Gran leaped onto his ribs and promptly crushed the air out of them. After glaring frantically about for a few moments while his adrenaline subsided, Landon recognized his irascible little grizzly sitting on his chest, blinking happily at him—or at least as happily as the Westerner had known Gran to be. “There you are, you little rascal!” California exclaimed, nuzzling the bear as it licked his cheek. “Where have you been all day?”
Gran gave his master a final lick before bouncing off the bed, giving Landon a clear look at the doorway and the familiar figure standing there with turned back. Landon knew he should thank the person who found and returned Gran to him, but if it was Patricia, he had even less incentive to talk. That spat with his brothers had worn him out more now that he had slept off his adrenaline. But desire to confirm the bear-rescuer’s identity caused him to bounce on out of bed anyway.
Landon tiptoed behind Patricia and, when he was close enough, dropped his hand suddenly on her right shoulder to spin her around to face him. Seeing her startled face confirmed his suspicions. “Hi, Pat!” he said, covering up his exhaustion as best he could with his typical obnoxious cheer. “Thanks for bringing Gran back. I swear, that bear just loves to test my willingness to hunt him down; don’t you, Gran?” California glanced over his shoulder to wag a falsely reprimanding finger at the baby grizzly, who crouched down dramatically as if cowed, before returning to the Other World Kingdom. “So, what else brings you here?” he asked. “Couldn’t get enough of me and my cooking, could you!”

The Other World Kingdom ♀ Patricia Novak
Patricia winced, hearing the loud annoying voice of California, but continued to walk on, though perhaps a bit faster than before. However, she was stopped quite suddenly by a heavy hand dropping onto her shoulder, and if it weren't for the fact that his hand was still on her shoulder, she likely would have jumped a foot. Instead, she turned to face him looking at first terrified, then slightly annoyed. But she put on a smile. "Well I wouldn't necessarily call it bringing him back, as he came here on his own," she admitted. But at his next comment, she began to grow angry. "No!" she said, almost seeming horrified by the thought. "I'm not interested in you or your horrid cooking!" She spat, "I was just leaving to get back to my dorm!" Her face was bright red with both anger and embarrassment. She turned away, hoping he'd let her leave now. Stupid American, she thought.

California smiled a little more broadly as he watched the transparent interplay of emotions on the Other World Kingdom’s face. Quickly enough, she mastered her expression and shot back a retort at him. Rather than injure, Patricia’s angry insults made Landon smile even more widely and earnestly. Her hilarious sensitivity was exactly what he needed to cheer himself up! Just as the Westerner lifted his hand from her shoulder, his phone buzzed, causing his hand to flinch away rather more abruptly than he would have liked.
Landon read his new text rapidly, grinning when he recognized its sender. Susanna was finally here! Their sunny quintet was almost complete! Now if only New York would arrive… The Californian sent back a message as enthused as he, including his old nickname for her when they were merely colonies:
”Hola, Vaca! So glad you’re here! Welcome to Axis High! I bet Old Man Rome installed all those stairs as a way to walk off his spaghetti and meatballs. razz Anyway, I’d love to meet you soon! Perhaps we can prank Maria too, since she’s supposed to come check out my makeup. Don’t meet me here—I’ll come over there, with my giant box of DOOM! JK” ~Landon
Tucking away his phone, California noticed that the Other World Kingdom was now staring determinedly away from him, ears—and probably face—red with embarrassment. The whole scene was so cute! He would have hugged her if not for the absolute certainty that she would punch him for it afterward. As it was, Landon poked Patricia in the back playfully. “Aww; why so mad? You’re so defensive; that’s why you’re so much fun to tease! I’d love for you to stay and chat, but I have a double date that I really must attend! But don’t resent,” he added entirely for dramatic effect. “You can come back anytime you like!” So long as Gran is here, anyway…

While Patricia no doubt mentally occupied herself with a fiery but false--so Landon liked to imagine--insult about how she didn't like or need him around, Landon replied to the next test his sister sent. It seemed that Susanna had missed the point of his jokes, so he didn't elaborate.
"No worries; I can come over there instead. I'm sure Andy won't mind. I'll be over in a bit. And I'll give you a hint--sleep, and lots of makeup. 8D" ~Landon
