On the Cannonness of Jackets...

[to-camelot.livejournal.com]

So I was doing reserch on the "Special Relationship" the other day when I found this tiny article. While I agree with the point being made, that Obama's gift to Prime Minister Brown was kinda, um, un-sentimental? Even though I love you Obama XD I couldn't help but see the little line just above the "What's in the Box?" box, saying how Bush once gave Brown a Bomber jacket that sounds like it is the same America wears in Hetalia. 


I had a fangirl spaz and decided to post it here. Now all those pictures of England wearing America's jacket are as good as cannon to me. Most other Articles I found on the Special Relationship were actually rather depressing because they all talked about how it was falling appart or growing cold, but I'm sure UsXUk's love will prevail in the end!!! XD

Actually Obama didn't make the flirting comment. That was a British journalist. Obama said they were going to try and form stronger relationships with France and Germany, the media kind of ran with it as if he were implying that it meant to diminish the special relationship. ;)

And yeah, I agree.

You are a clever one Haro, I believe I have met my fact-checking match XD

...LOL. My Hetalia-goggles interprets that scene as: "England heard America saying he was going to try and make better friends with France and Germany. Because of who he is, he then got all tsundere and jealous about it."

Mr Brown gloated at having beaten French President Nicolas Sarkozy in the race to meet President Barack Obama, it was claimed yesterday. The respected French financial daily newspaper La Tribune quoted a Washington source as saying that Mr Brown could not hide 'his satisfaction at becoming the first European leader invited by Barack Obama'.

And now the jealous England can take effect perhaps? England and France competing for America and England wins (like always~)

Oh god. RL, why do you have to make US/UK so frigging CANON.

Where are you getting these articles? I am in awe of your skill. Also, I have to admit I love that, but I am doomed because thanks to pictures like this:

...I ship Obama/Sarko.

I clicked on some of the other links in the original article and these shipping moments just came up.

Oh god, the second pic is making me see all England ready to pounce because America's attention is diverted from him seeing as he's such a jealous tsundere.

Sarko France is totally checking out Obama's America's ass. And admiring it in a Gallic elegant way.

And England and Canada stand by fuming.

HETALIA STOP MAKING ME SHIP POLITICS OMG.

...have you ever seen the series "Little Britain"?

[kotakia.livejournal.com]

Hetalia's actually gotten me to pay attention to politics for once in my life.

No, never heard of it. What's it about?

[lion-guardant.livejournal.com]

It's a British comedy show. One of the characters is the Prime Minister...he visits/is visited by the American president a couple of times. Oh god, I just need to show you the vids...

It's insanely in sync with Hetalia!



And then in the next clip, the flamboyant aide has become the Prime Minister.

I BLOODY LOVE LITTLE BRITAN XD
the first vid is like an embodiment of my fangirlishness

[kotakia.livejournal.com]

XDDDDDDDD

Oh my god, that is awesome. Now I am dying to see some kind of AMV to those.

[pardofelis.livejournal.com]

Oh man, if I had any talent at vidding whatsoever, I'd give it a try!

And god, I love Little Britain. ♥ Unfortunately, Youtube took down one of my favorite clips, in which the nations are all convening at the UN and the British PM spends the entirety of Japan's speech passing notes to the president -- one of which ("Thinking about your cock") gets intercepted by the Saudi rep, who thinks he's the intended recipient and starts making eyes at the horrified PM. Good times, good times. XD (And now I really, really want to Hetalicize that. With Russia in Saudi Arabia's role, because it makes me LOL. And some unfortunate character would have to be swapped in for the increasingly irritated president of Ghana who's sitting between the US and UK and gets stuck with passing along all of the notes, poor dude)

Those are some pretty incredible pics you got there, but I feel the need to counter with some BarackXBrown I MEAN UsXUk pictures.

and just for fun (and to contradict my fandom slightly)

Q-QUIT TRYING TO MAKE ME SHIP BARACK/BROWN _{but the last one made me lol}

[lion-guardant.livejournal.com]

Oooh. The epic battle for Obama-rama has commenced!

if only Brown could be as good looking as Sarko and Obama... *sighs*

I is petty, I knows.

Also, that last one. Ow. POOR BROWN!

[to-camelot.livejournal.com]

BarackXSarko is prettier but my love for UsXUk spills over into BarackXBrown, and even then I still feel kinda bad because BarackXMichel is cute and cannon XD

Brown has so been taking tsundere lessons from England in the last pic XD

[lion-guardant.livejournal.com]

We are discussing the opposing ships of REAL LIFE WORLD LEADERS. OTL

Hetalia, what have you done to us!

Also, it's so easy to imagine Alfred, Francis and Arthur in their leaders' places in that scene. Awwww.

[to-camelot.livejournal.com]

I KNOW RIGHT!! There was a time when i watched the news and just thought f it as politics...now all meetings and conferences are dates XD

[kotakia.livejournal.com]

That last one just gave me an idea I need to act on like NOW along with what I'm currently doing because of the quotes in this thread. We need more of these little community conversations more often.

[haro.livejournal.com]

When Obama was campaigning, he said he wanted to enter a 'full partnership' with the UK. OH YES, THEY'RE GONNA GET MARRIED.

[kotakia.livejournal.com]

Oh please tell me there's like a link to that statement somewhere. PLEASE. Like a press coverage or something, I just need to see that!
