Ok so you know how in Ep. 1 we get a glimpse of Victor’s apartment.

In the blu ray version, they changed how his apartment looks. It’s still very stylish but it is much more cozy as well.

AND LOOK AT THE SHIT TON OF BOOKS HE HAS.

THAT’S A LOT OF BOOKS.

I strongly support the headcanon that although Victor is forgetful and can be very ditzy, he loves learning, is super book-smart, and very well-read.

Victor’s the type of person to hold all the Weird Facts and blurt them out at the most random times.

Victor also genuinely likes receiving books as presents.

Victor’s the one to drag Yuuri into bookshops and he never leaves one empty-handed.

Victor’s the type of person to murmur deep poetry into Yuuri’s ears when he kisses him.

Victor is the biggest nerd.

Burn-Apollo Version

Apollo was back on Olympus and in his temple, immortal and godly of course. He was remembering everything his so-called family giving him half-apologies and excuses when he became a God once again. He remembered that after Dionysus, he was the one most punished by his father. Not even his twin sister; Artemis, or the kind Hestia spoke up to Zeus when he cast Apollo down to the mortal world.

I remember every word you told me

Apollo really did remember everything his family said to him, from his birth to the present time, he would always remember.

From the moment I saw you, I knew you were mine

Apollo remembered the first time he went was on Olympus. He remembered looking at his father, his uncle, his aunts, his stepmother, his half-brothers, his half-sisters.

You said you were mine

I thought you were mine

Then, he remembered all those punishments Zeus gave him. Or when Artemis kept on insulting, screaming, and yelling at him.

Do you know what Mother said

When I first became an Olympian?

She said

"Be careful with those, love

They will do what it takes to survive"

Apollo remembered the day he got turned into a mortal again. No one spoke up for him. Not a single one.

You and your words flooded my senses

Your sentences left me defenseless

You built me palaces out of paragraphs

You built cathedrals

He really, actually thought that his family loved him. But it was all a big lie. They didn’t love him.

I'm re-remembering the things you told me

I'm searching and scanning for answers in every line

For some kind of sign, and when you were mine

Apollo thought of all the moments he had with his family. All 4,000 plus years. He needed to remember if they really loved him or if they were all lying to him.

The world seemed to burn

Burn

I published the book about everything you told me

Apollo wrote a book called “I Was There For Them In Their Darkest Times, I Was There For Them In Their Darkest Times, But I Wonder Where They Were When I Was At My Lowest On My Knees.” It was about his adventures, but using different names for the other Gods: Zeus as John, Hera as Anastasia, Poseidon as Joe, Demeter as Anna, Ares as Marcus, Athena as Phoebe, himself as Fred, Artemis as Zoe, Hephaestus as Charles, Aphrodite as Callista, Hermes as Luke, Dionysus as Timothy, Hades as George, Iris as Luna, Hypnos as James, Nemesis as Natalie, Nike as Victoria, Hebe as Maya, Tyche as Elizabeth, Hecate as Ginevra, and Hestia as Celestia. These are the names they use when they go to the mortal world. As for the demigods, he used their middle names: Jason as Alexander, Percy as August, Annabeth as Susan, Will as Andrew, etc.

I told the whole world how you punished me for one single mistake

After the battle against Gaea, Zeus punished him for not only encouraging Octavian to follow his dangerous path but also for revealing the prophecy much too soon.

In clearing your name, you have ruined my life

Apollo remembered Jason and those whose blood was on his hands. He remembered all those nightmares he had about his children dying in the most painful way, Jason blaming him for his death, his family lying straight to his face about loving him.

Do you know what Mother said

When she found out what you'd done?

She said

"Our family’s an Icarus

They have flown too close to the sun"

Leto tried to multiple times persuade Zeus into bringing Apollo back to Olympus, but to no avail.

You and your words, obsessed with your reputation

That’s all the Gods and Goddesses do; maintaining their reputation.

Your sentences border on senseless

And you are paranoid in every paragraph

How they perceive you

You, you, you

By now, Apollo grabbed the painting he made of his family after the Second Titan War as a way to cope with the loss of his children.

I'm erasing myself from the narrative

Let future historians wonder how Apollo reacted when you broke his heart

You have torn it all apart, I'm watching it

Burn

Watching it burn

Apollo broke the painting into pieces and threw it in the fire he made.

The world has no right to my heart

The world has no place in Olympus

They don't get to know what I said

I'm burning the memories

He threw the scrapbook, photo album, paintings, poems, drawings, everything he made and got from his “family”

Burning the things that might have redeemed all of you

You forfeit all rights to my heart

Apollo split his beloved Golden Bow made by Hephaestus and threw it in the fire. He grabbed his sacred quiver of arrows, split them in half, and threw them into the fire.

You forfeit the place in my temples

You sleep in your temples instead

With only the memories of when you were mine

The last thing that reminded Apollo of the other 19 of the Olympian Council was his necklace with their symbols.

I hope that you burn

He threw it in the fire and flashed away to see his mother. Apollo was unaware that the Olympian Council along with everyone in Camp Half-Blood. Camp Jupiter, and the Hunters. Almost everyone was crying, but none more than Hermes, Artemis, and Hestia; all of which were closest to Apollo. They can only hope that the sun god wouldn’t hold a grudge and forgive them in time.

Okay, so for the past few years whenever ANZAC Day comes around, I draw something Hetalia-related. And this time, I decided to focus on New Zealand! Because there weren’t be a ‘NZ’ in ‘ANZAC’ without them!

Also, while researching for WW1 New Zealand uniforms, I came across the Bulford Kiwi - a giant chalk carving kiwi bird that was carved on the side of a hillside in England. And…according to Wikipedia:

“After the war was over the troops were eager to return home, but no troop ships were available. In the wake of riots by disaffected New Zealanders, officers decided that the troops should be kept busy carving an enormous kiwi into the chalk of the hill.”
