Today is December 14th. Russia has put four people to work and enslaved them to make his front yard look pretty and festive. These people were Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia and [Name]. Not only did they have to decorate, they also had to shovel the snow and ice off to make it look neater. Thankfully that part was already done, even if it took a while.
Latvia and [Name] had temporarily gone inside to find the lights from the storage. Russia had a lot of stuff and other trinkets, and all the boxes looked pretty much the same, so it was harder than anticipated, but they did eventually find it. They quickly ran back outside to avoid getting a lecture from their mean host.
“We found it, guys!” Latvia says, running over to Estonia and Lithuania, who had been anxiously waiting and planning out where to hang the lights and in what order. He puts the cardboard box down on the ground and quickly starts to put his gloves and hat on to avoid the freezing cold.
“Finally! You were gone for forever, we thought Russia got to you…” Lithuania worries and opens the box, to see a horrifying, but mostly just annoying, truth. “It’s all tangled…” he sighs.
“Best get to work!” [Name] smiles cheerfully and sits down on the snow.
“How can you be so relaxed about this…?” Estonia quietly wonders.
“Because they don’t have to worry about being torn to pieces for taking too long,” Latvia says and glares at [Name], “It’s unfair! Unfair!”
“Don’t be so loud or big, bad Russia will get you, kid~” [Name] ruffles Latvia’s head over the hat, making it go over his eyes.
“Eek!” He quickly adjusts it and pulls a tangled mess of cords.
Lithuania sighs and sits down as well, giving [Name] a look, “Don’t scare him,” He says.
All four begin to try to efficiently untangle all the cords.
“I really hope we get this done before dark…” Estonia whimpers.
“Me too…”
“Me too.”
“Me too.”
It takes a little while, trying not to break the delicate cords from all the pulling. It was also an extremely irritating task to the mitten-wearing half of the group, but eventually they got it all done.
“Me and Estonia will handle making sure the bulbs work as supposed to, so you two can hang them up however you were planning to.” [Name] says to Lithuania and Latvia, standing up and pulling Estonia with them.
“Okay, good luck.” Lithuania smiles at them and starts telling the plan he had made with Estonia to Latvia. “I hope it will be good enough for Mr. Russia…”
Estonia and [Name] walk over to where they had planned to set up all the cables. “So, how old are these lights?” [Name] asks.
“I don’t know… Too old. Every year they’re in worse and worse condition, but Mr. Russia refuses to get new ones as long as they still look fine.” Estonia answers.
“Maybe you just need to persuade him a little more?”
“No thank you.”
The two connect everything and prepare to turn it on. “Now we just have to hope neither Latvia or Lithuania get electrocuted.” [Name] says, ready to switch the power on.
“Maybe we should yell out a warning first?” Estonia looks at them, a little worried.
“Too late!” They press on the switch, watching as it all lights up. Well, most of it lights up. The two walk over to get a better look.
“You guys could’ve given a little warning first! That was scary.” Lithuania complains to the two.
“Estonia’s fault.” [Name] points to Estonia.
“Hey, what??” Estonia looks at them.
“Lithuania! Come help me already!” Latvia cries out, struggling with the cable that he was trying to put in its place.
“Ah! I completely forgot, sorry!” He runs over and helps him set it up.
Estonia and [Name] also help with the rest of the preparations of setting the lights up. It didn’t take long with four people on the case.
“Hmm… All we need to do is replace the lightbulbs that didn’t light up, right? Easy.” [Name] says.
“Yes, but we’ll need to go buy some.”
“Wow! It’s beautiful, I love it!” A new voice makes everyone flinch and turn to it. Russia was here!
“M-Mr. Russia! It’s almost done, we promise!” Lithuania stutters.
“Good job, everyone,” Russia smiles and ignores him, “I think you all deserve a treat for your hard work. Let’s all go inside and eat something good and warm together. Oh, and thank you for helping Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia out, [Name].” He pulls them into a hug, which they reciprocate.
“It was no problem! Thanks for having me. Do I get to join you for dinner as well?” They smile.
“Of course.”
And so, the day came to a close. Russia had insisted on keeping the lights like they were now, since he said he was going to buy new ones for next year and would like to use all the leftover light from the current lights.
Hear me out, yknow when you have a crush you kinda think or do silly things and get all bashful and flushed out with emotions?! Or do things like write their name over and over, or write poems?! Well, what kind of things would Russia, along with Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia show it?
(Hetalia Russia + Baltics X Reader) How They Act with a Crush!
(Gender Neutral) Headcanons ~ A/N oh boy!!! The baltics!!! i didnt think id get any requests for these guys!!!
Trigger Warning: None, just fluff!
To the outside observer, Ivan acts no differently around you than anyone else. But to anyone close to him, it’s clear he’s absolutely head over heels.
With others, he has absolutely no problem manhandling and grabbing them, but when it comes to you… anytime he’s more than a foot close to you, he’s fidgeting and stuttering. God forbid you touch him, then he’s hurrying out of the room as quickly as possible.
Seeing as he’s easily the most unhealthy out of the four of these guys, he’s the worst at dealing with his feelings. He doesn’t even realize his romantic feelings for you for… well… way longer than is reasonable. And once he does, he tries pushing you away. Easier forgetting you exist than getting hurt, right? Especially since whenever he sees you, he feels like he’s on goddamn fire!
But that can’t last. He absolutely finds himself writing your name over and over again (sometimes on official papers…) In fact, he finds it quite maddening how he can’t stop thinking about you, and about how no one else could treat you like he could…
In fact, he thinks that enough to straight up tell you that. He has more of a filter with you, but that’s not saying much. He is definitely showing up to your hangouts and immediately telling you you’re perfect.
Any semblance of confidence and stoicism left in Toris before is completely demolished once he realizes his feelings for you. The former warrior is left blushing and stuttering once he sees you!
Anything that you need, he’s there to wait on you hand and foot, no questions asked. If he sees you having trouble with anything, no matter how small, he’ll ask you to scoot over so he can do it with you.
And then when you thank him, he can’t do anything but blush and mutter a quick “You’re welcome.”
He can come off as quite clingy because of this. He can’t help but insist on accompanying you to anything, from family gatherings to late-night grocery runs. And when he does join you, he doesn’t say much unless you do. He’s perfectly content to just push your cart behind you, wistfully gazing at you, completely in love.
Toris is kind of like a puppy when he’s in love. Always over the moon to see you, even for a minute, and completely at your beck and call. But… it’s almost to an unhealthy degree. He’s completely willing to push himself beyond what he can do just for you. So… just don’t take advantage of his affection.
Unfortunately, you won’t get a lot of super-cute reactions out of Eduard. He’s pretty confident in your ability to woo you, so he’s not very outwardly yearning.
But that doesn’t mean he isn’t thinking about you. You’ll receive a lot of late-night texts, usually along the lines of “This reminded me of you!” and it’s just a picture of a cat.
In fact, you’re always in the back of his mind. Whenever he’s going to the store, he’s wondering what kind of snacks you usually get. Whenever he’s working, he’s checking in on what you’re doing. It seems like he’s already preparing a life shared with you, before you two are even dating!
The most flustered you’ll get him is when you compliment his work. As soon as you say something nice about his newest software, he’s blushing and trying to brush off your compliment. Sure, he can be plenty appreciative towards you, but not the other way around!
He’s a rather traditional man when it comes to romance, so before asking you out, he might send you a bouquet or chocolate. He wants you to know he cares, without coming off as too invested and overbearing.
Surprisingly, Raivis becomes much more confident around you when he realizes his feelings. Now that he knows exactly what he wants, he’ll constantly be telling you everything he thinks.
Expect heaps of compliments, most of the time over the smallest things. Like, things no one else would notice. Like your hair being more shiny than usual, your shoes being cleaner than most, and just how organized your pantry is. No one usually would care, but to him, nothing is more important than letting you know how special you are.
It seems like his eyes are always on you. Even when you’re searching through a crowd, he can’t see the world outside of your existence. He’s walked into a few poles because of this.
He also can’t resist being much more handsy than any normal friend should be. Always grabbing your hand to lead you places, leaning on your shoulder to rest, and then coyly denying that anything took place.
The only time he’ll get all flustered is just when he finally confesses his feelings. With flirting, there’s no pressure, but with that? That’s really just… confirming the reality of your relationship. Which is really exciting! And scary… so he can’t help tripping over himself.
hi atlas, i love ur texts !! <3 could u do some imagines for norway, denmark and lithuania falling asleep while the reader was reading them fairy tales? thank uuu, wishin u an amazing day <3
Thank you so much, you're so sweet, I hope your day is just as lovely as you are
Denmark, Lithuania, and Norway Falling Asleep To Their S/O's Reading To Them
Denmark • Matthias Køhler
When you picked up the book and started reading, you were sitting on the couch, Mathias' head resting on your thighs while his attention was on his phone
As you started reading, he didn't immediately notice, too focused on whatever group chat he was in, but at some point in your reading, it caught his attention and he started listening
He placed his phone on his chest and closed his eyes, just intending on listening for a little while, but quite quickly after he did so, he drifted off to sleep, lulled by your voice
Lithuania • Toris Laurinaitis
He loves the sound of your voice, finding it to be calming and deeply soothing, especially when he's struggling with sleeping, as he's prone to do
While he's embarrassed doing so, he'll actually ask you to read something cute while he tries to drift off, so you choosing fairytales is kind of perfect
He enjoys laying in bed next to you while you softly read the short stories, a small smile on his face
It makes him fall asleep better than anything else
Norway • Lukas Bondevik
He's an unabashed lover of fantasy, mythology, magic and the arcana, so he doesn't mind you reading fairytales aloud (this is probably not an uncommon occurrence and he'll occasionally make requests of stories from his country)
He normally doesn't fall asleep when you read them, however, since he had to sit through a particularly long World Conference meeting earlier in the day, he couldn't help it
With him leaning against you, he slowly fell asleep, relaxing to the sound of your voice
I know this page is super new, but I already love it! I can’t wait to see more. Speaking of, I was wondering how Russia would handle his S/O watching dramatic shows (like Grey’s Anatomy), and crying whenever someone dies in the show? Thanks!
You’re too kind! Thank you so much! I don’t know much about drama shows but I tried. Have a bonus Belarus and Lithuania! :)
Russia, Belarus and Lithuania with an s/o who cries watching dramatic shows.
At first he doesn’t exactly get why you watch these shows.
However, they become a bit of a guilty pleasure for him.
He’ll probably recommend some russian shows he thinks you’ll like.
Such as, Brigada (Бригада), Better than us (Лучше, чем люди) and The Method (Метод.)
He’ll also probably call someone about making Russian versions of Grey’s anatomy and law and order: SVU.
You scared him the first time you stared crying.
He thought he’d done something wrong.
He finds it incredibly cute once you explain what’s actually wrong.
He’ll give you cuddles when you get upset watching your shows.
He’ll learn to keep a box of tissues next to the sofa.
Belarus
She enjoys watching drama shows with you.
However, she does prefer the crime/thriller themed ones more.
Big fan of Hannibal and killing eve!
However, She’s not as attached to the characters as you are.
She finds it kinda funny when you cry.
Once she’s finished laughing, she’ll let you cuddle.
Lithuania
Poor baby nearly has a heat attack the first time he sees you crying.
He instantly goes into comfort mode.
He still stays and comforts you even when he finds out why you’re upset.
He occasionally watches your shows with you but he isn’t the biggest fan of the more violent ones.
He prefers shows that have a bit of comedy in them because he likes to hear you laugh.
