(icons are linked to songs either from or about North Carolina. Not all of them are necessarily my favorites.)         "First In Flight" The Tarheel State The Old North State
North Carolina, USA Charlotte C. "Jones" Freshman "I've been good." she smiled and hugged her brother when a newcomer came around. She hadn't met this blue haired boy before but Landon seemed familiar with him. Classmates maybe? She wasn't too surprised to hear that Ruitilio had gotten in trouble but then again, he didn't often yell at someone unless it was Georgia. Knowing Landon, he probably caused it somehow. "Oh so you're the nation Gee-Or-Gee-Ah? It's nice to meet you." she smiled brightly. Charlotte gave her west coast brother a look of not surprised that he was out looking for trouble or the fact that he was already in trouble. Carolina turned in confusion as to what was so funny. So his name isn't Gee-Or-Gee-Ah? "Oh I'm sorry I was told it was Gee-Or-Gee-Ah..." She gave him an apologetic look. So both this nation and her brother were named Georgia. She wondered how that happened. England had named Georgia after King George but there where did Persia get the name? Her train of thought didn't disperse until she felt someone nudging her and only heard 'pretty lady agrees, too.' She turned and found unfamiliar face. When did he get hear? This whole time she hadn't been paying attention to the silliness that unfolded in front of her. "Huh? Oh, sorry. What was I agreeing to?" "So, Landon. Who's the poor sap you're targeting for this Hollywood secrete of your?"(Out of Cheerwine and Pepsi: )

~Slovakia~Zlata Augustine Lietchinsk 11th Grade Zlata tilted her head, he liked her language? She blushed a bit, not used to hearing that from another country before smiling a little bashfully, "Vank you. I 'ad to learn German and Czech."Zlata said thoughtfully, biting her lip. It had been a while since she had revised the variety of languages she knew; she only used them to interact with the people of her land who often spoke the neighbouring languages. It had been some timesince she'd visited her neighbours either, though she occassionally went to meetings.
Zlata nodded understandingly while she ate the last part of her main course when Emil said he sometimes got full before he could enjoy a dessert. When she swallowed her food down she managed a sympathetic smile, nodding in agreement when the other mentioned she was lucky;"Oh, vell at least you 'ave zome variety nie~? Also 'ave zome of zhis..." The slovak leaned over plucking up one of the little steamed buns and placing it in the other's box with a short smile and a nod, trying to ignore the shy feeling that creeped it's way over her. "I'll never vinish it all anyvay."
The slovak leaned back into her seat, relieved to feel some of the shyness draining away; it had been a long time since she had acted so...so...timid. Suddenly she felt all to aware of the tingling sensation on her cheeks and turned her face away from the other, embarassed of and not used to this weird feeling. It dawned on Zlata that she may be experiencing a little crush but she immediately tried to deny it- the last time she had...felt like that it had only brought her sadness, thus the poor shy tsundere little slovak was immediately put off of the idea of ever liking anyone in that way again. But for her suddenly to have this crush on a man she had only met the other day, baffled the slovak and made her feel vulnerable and embarassed...yet stranegly happy at the same time, Zlata admitted with a visible cringe at that happy, fuzzy yet tingly feeling.

★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ Landon stared at the three faces amassed in front of him for a piece of his secret pie. He sighed. If only Shujinko hadn't turned on him as well. Faced with a triple team, he could hardly keep his movie secret anymore. He had hoped to tell it to them somewhere more private too...
Florida's and Georgia's infuriated faces appeared vividly before his eyes, and Landon shuddered. He didn't entirely want to get either of them mad at him, but neither did he want to lose out on a potentially very profitable movie gig.
California decided to give them the partial truth by telling his sister and friends the plot of what he had in mind, but not the stars. After looking around to make sure neither star was in the cafeteria, he spoke. "It's my new project called Savannah Summer, and it's a new movie idea I have featuring two rivals, who later become best buds and maybe lovers," Landon told them. "I'm still tweaking the script a little, especially at the ending, but otherwise I'm ready to look for actors." He grinned, relieved that he hadn't yet revealed Rutilio's and Christian's roles in the conceptualization of the movie. Yet.
"I still don't know whether to use real people or CG for the movie," the West Coast state admitted. "Any ideas there either?"

Republic of Iceland ⇔ Emil Steilsson ☂ The Freezing Junior ☂  □□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□ The island nation blinked in surprise at the other's reaction. Why was he being weird again? He didn't understand why his inner dorkiness was always let out whenever Zlata was around. Was it because she is his friend? Is this what friends do? Emil didn't know since the Nordics were always dragging him everywhere, not letting him meet others until he was finally an independent country. "I guess." He shrugged lightly, glancing at the bun placed in his lunck box. A small smile appeared on his face. It was a weird sensation to smile. He wasn't used to doing it. "Thanks..." He ever so gently picked it up and took a small bite out of it, smile unchanged. "It's really good." He noticed the slovakian was looking away, cringing. Did he upset her? Emil placed the bun down on a napkin, warily attempting to speak to the young woman. "Zlata..? Are you alright?" He hoped she wasn't sick like Lukas was. He couldn't bare the thought of a friend like her being sick. Wait. What? Since when did he think like this? His cheeks colored lightly. □□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□Out of Reykjavik: i'm gonna steal all the food at the multicultural festival! >: D whenever it is... Translation:

~Slovakia~Zlata Augustine Lietchinsk 11th Grade "Vanks..." Zlata turned her head slightly. When Zlata realised she had caused Emil to worry she half-smiled a little and said meekly, "I'm f-fine...zo...vhat are you planning to do vor zhe festival?" Flusteredly Zlata rapidly tried to change the subject, her cheeks coloured a shy girly pink. Poor Zlata wasn't used to people worrying over her; the last time that had happened was when she was ill, and married to Czech, whom had fussed like a mother hen over her, much to the slovak's annoyance. Zlata couldn't stand it when people treated her like a kid and tried to take care of her, it felt even worse having Emil worry over her ... Zlata blinked hard and forced herself to turn around, hoping that her face wasn't as pink as she thought it was, though she could still feel her cheeks tingling...

 Picardy Shujinko Bonnefoy The Trickster Sophomore  Kartlos nodded. “Yes, it's just pronounced Georgia. But it's a pleasure to meet you too." He said with a smile. And when she asked what she was agreeing to, Kartlos answered before Shujinko could. "We're trying to get Landon to reveal his secret plans!"
Shujinko turned when he felt a pair of eye watching him. Who was it? He scanned the lunchroom until... he found who it was. A blonde girl who was sitting alone, staring right at him. Not just at him, at his ears. He wasn't really too shocked by that. He stuck his tongue out at her, before turning back towards the Landon, who was now explaining his new movie plot. "Sounds good! I'll definitely help."
Kartlos looked at Landon, and upon seeing his mischievous grin, realized he wasn't telling them everything. Kartlos grinned right back at him. He hoped he would hear the rest of his secret. "I'd be glad to help too. I'm a great actor." He said. Then, getting a great idea, added. "Or perhaps I could help with the music!" He grinned.

☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ Landon Blackwell Jones ||||!~The Golden Boy~!|||| ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ California grinned as first Shujinko, then Kartlos and Charlotte voiced their agreement to help. Almost no effort spent into recruiting and he had already gotten three actors! If only the rest of them would come so easily!
But, as with all streaks of luck, this one was bound to run out. The proverbial anime sweatdrop rolled down Landon's forehead as Charlotte asked the exact question he had been hoping to avoid. The Californian slicked his hair back with both hands and propped them behind his head in an effort to hide the cold sweat that had broken out there. Leave it to his sister to figure out the secret so quickly...
One quick glance at the others told him that neither European had figured it out yet, although Kartlos was dangerously close to prying it out of him. To perhaps prevent the Georgian from learning just where he had gotten the idea, Landon nodded. "Of course, you can help with both! But the music might be enough. I might just do this in CG after all." It was an evasion and he knew it, and he kicked North Carolina under the table to prevent her from pointing out exactly who were scheduled to star in his new project. Bad enough that she knew; all of Europe did not need to know as well.
"So!" He clapped his hands. "If we're all able to perform, how does tomorrow in the park sound?"

Never mind that he knew exactly why the entire event had slipped his mind.
Either way, the West Coast state was very happy for the easy topic change his Eastern duster had so conveniently provided. Swiftly redirecting attention from his movie to his booth, Lansdon asked, "What are you all planning on doing for the festival tomorrow? I think I'm gonna bring fusion food, clam chowder, sourdough bread, Beach Boys, and an Apple download station."
Hopefully they wouldn't take too long to answer. Landon had yet to figure out where Christian and Rutilio had wandered off to, but there was one area on campus he had not yet checked...

Landon turned abruptly when he heard another familiar voice approach him and realized that Alabama had also come to chat. So long as he didn't return the conversation to the subject of his newest movie, everything would be fine. "Kanie!" he exclaimed, beaming at the compliment and standing to clap a hand on the older state's lower ribcage. The Southerner had grown too tall to slap on the shoulder. "Good of you to show up! How's it going, bro? We were just talking about our plans for the festival tomorrow!" (phone. Please quote everyone else I quoted in my last post too.)
