“Hetalia” Lore: Introduction/The Core.

Several years ago, I made a series of “lore” posts relating to the popular anime/manga series “Axis Powera Hetalia,” sometimes abbreviated to “APH” or “HWS…

Well, hey guys! I'm taking steps towards re-vamping my old Hetalia lore/headcanons/theories, and I've just published my very first entry to Wordpress!

If you're a fan of Hetalia, or have read my lore posts on here before, check it out if you'd like!

I’ve always HC’d that Representatives would experience an uncomfortable sort of ache in their stomachs whenever they’re away from their land. It’s nothing too serious, so it’s easy to ignore, but they can’t really block it out entirely. It’s there as a reminder, as a pulling sensation, back to where they should be, where they Represent.

Despite all of its ‘grand designs’ there are a fair few flaws in the body of a Representative. The fact that their bodies don’t really let Reps to be ‘free-roaming’ outside of their territory is one of those flaws.

Whenever a Representative leaves their land to attend a world meeting or a conference, they will sometimes find themselves rather rudely accosted by a set of painful cramps and a tense, straining sensation in the stomach and chest. So what is it? Was it something they ate? Did they pull a muscle? What’s going on here? This ‘pull’ can be simply described as a warning, and it is there to let the Rep know that they are away from their land, and that they ought to return to their land promptly before something happens. The very purpose of a Representative’s existence is to act as a stabiliser to their respective territories, and without them, the land is in danger of literally falling apart, therefore the pulling is there to alert them to that danger. After all, damage to the land has a physical impact on the Rep themselves. Of course, while the Rep is still alive, the land will not succumb and collapse, but the pull is essentially a failsafe to remind the Rep that it may still be a possibility because of their absence.

Unfortunately, this little warning results in a lot of discomfort on the Representative’s part, this may sound a little strange, but I’ve always imagined these pulling pains to be similar to menstrual pains, in the way that they can be incredibly painful or just a dull ache, there often isn’t an in between. Sometimes a Rep can go years without the pain becoming a real hinderance, only for it to then hit them suddenly out of the blue and make their abroad trip a living Hell. It’s an unpleasant thing to go through, and the majority of Representatives won’t even be able to take medication in order to combat the pain that they are feeling either, since I think their immune systems are just too different to humans’ to take any man-made pain meds. Some Reps may be fortunate enough to have the ability to stomach and benefit from man-made remedies, but this is a very rare occurrence, and only ever happens to younger Reps. (Starting with ones born in the late 20th century, I reckon.) Besides, there’s only so much relief that medication can provide at the end of the day, unless they take tylenol and fuckin tranquillise themselves, but I imagine that probably wouldn’t be the best idea if they’re in an important meeting and are expected to speak.   

In addition, because of the sheer amount of land they have, Nation Reps are actually much more susceptible to these pulling pains than City Reps are. The sensation will often hurt more as well, as they are separated from a large combination of of different Cities, Towns, etc. that make up their territory. (All I can say is R.I.P, Ivan.) Cities, Towns, Villages etc. on the other hand, would only have to put up with the pain of their land, and their land alone, it’s still a bummer but it definitely wouldn’t be akin to the pains suffered by the unfortunate Nations. Therefore, if you were ever to attend a world meeting or conference, the sad picture of a number of Reps hunched in their seats with heat packs pressed firmly to their stomachs would not be an uncommon thing to see. They have to make do, however, these meetings are often important, and so are they.

Though this pulling business can be seen as an unfortunate and inconvenient flaw in these otherwise brilliantly designed beings, it makes more sense when you consider the fact that these beings were created purely to stabilise the Earth itself. The fact that Reps experience pain when they leave their land is no doubt a deliberate reaction put in place by some benevolent God to remind their creations to stay put if they know what’s good for them. It’s kind of like a commandment in its own way, really screwed up one, one that - ideally - will eventually herd the sheep back to where they belong for the Good Of the Planet.

Unfortunately however, due to their place in the human world - particularly within their government - this isn’t an option for many Reps, particularly those with a Nation status, which is something their creator evidently didn’t foresee happening.

“Hetalia” Lore: The ‘Ladder,’ and what differs the Living Land from humanity?

((DISCLAIMER: This is easily the most wordy, complicated and – in a way – contradictory theory I have regarding the Hetalia series. I apologise if my rambling makes even less sense than…

I'm back on my bullshit! 

This is a follow up to my first post! It's a... real wordy one, this one.. A little rundown of the very, very subtle and yet not subtle differences between a human and a Representative.

Tbh England probably remembers america being this sweet little angel as a kid but he was in fact the opposite. Like he just blocks those memories of america being feral as a kid and see him as a sweet little angel.

Awww. I guess England is used to conveniently ignoring the problems and insisting everything is hunky dory.

DISCLAIMER: Before I begin I wanna re-establish that NOBODY has to agree with or even like my Lore, especially since this particular post is on a Canon Character. These are purely my headcanons and my thoughts as to how this canon character would fit into my lore, I am not about to force these ideas/headcanons onto anyone. Okay? Ooookay.

On the 18th of January, over three hundred years ago, Elector Frederick III promoted Prussia from a Duchy to a Kingdom.

I’ve had this idea for a little while, but because of real life and me being the Queen of Procrastination, I haven’t had the chance to write it down into a post. But since today is Gilbert’s birthday, I thought it would be good to write down why I think his eyes and hair look the way they do! (Granted, my HC appearance for Gilbert’s eyes are a very pale brownish-pink buuuut… Artistic license I guess?)  SO, because I like being mean to these guys, a Representative’s physical appearance can be (and often are) altered by a change in status; such as growing taller, their healing rate getting a boost, etc. 

With any kind of change, people are going to react differently to it; some people will deal with change well while other people will deal with change terribly. For example; I am terrible at dealing with change, getting my dog recently has been a colossal change in my life, and though it’s a lovely one, it did take me a while to get used to having him around. So, taking that, we can come to the logical conclusion that some Representatives deal with changes far better than others.

Some, unfortunately, don’t deal with a status change very well.

Since it’s such a big change, and a change that affects them physically and ultimately mentally, sometimes it can come as a really big shock, even if they think they’ve prepared for it. Gilbert strikes me as a person who runs headfirst into most things, he’s someone who knows his strengths; so when faced with this “promotion” I can definitely see him insisting that he’ll handle the changes juuust fine.

 So, I imagine him being knocked down with twice as much force once he realises that his body isn’t dealing with the change quite as well as his mind.

I get the feeling that the reason why his hair is pure white is because the strain of undergoing the physical changes of going from a Duchy to a Kingdom Representative literally bleached him.

Much like with the pulling pains, a change in status can range from being absolutely bearable to feeling like Hell on earth, and no matter how tough or strong-willed a Representative thinks they are, they can be completely beaten down by it. No amount of preparation can really help the way their body reacts, they just have to take it in their stride as best they can, and deal with the consequences afterwards, no matter how unfortunate said consequences are.

UM Y’ALL REMEMBER HOW..

Y’all remember how I said I was gonna share some Hetalia lore with you? THAT’S STILL HAPPENING!! But I’ve made a blog for the stuff, which is why it’s taken so long to do.

ALSO, there’s only one post on there at the moment because my God, upon looking back at some of the stuff I’ve written;

a) A lot of the posts have old ass writing. b) I got new ideas. c) I might update the artwork in some of the headers.

SO YEAH That’s why it’s taken so long, sorry about that! And for the person who asked me about my lore, I’m very sorry! Real life is fuck and I’m picky about what I’m gonna post ftyghkj. I have One Post that I can reblog atm though.
