APH: This Is Us

“I'm like a Sunday morning, you're like Friday night
And when we kiss, it’s the perfect weekend - no rain in sight
When I'm feeling incomplete, you're my missing piece
And when you need your breath taken away I'll be your thief

From the start to the end
We don't need to pretend
That we're perfect all the time
'cause we know what we have
Through the good the bad
It's a strength that you can't deny...

I don't need to find a million reasons why
This is us, this is us, this is how we love
Some ways we're different
But together we're so right
This is us, this is us
And this is how we love”

From “This Is Us” by Keysia Cole (listen here [link])

Yeah okay, I admit it, I’m a sucker for America/Philippines. Even though Philippines doesn’t exist yet in Hetalia, popular fan consensus is that the country, if it was personified, would be a female. I’m rolling with it; for me, Phil is a girl. And if you know the two countries’ intertwined histories, it makes so much sense that she and America would eventually develop a romantic relationship. Actually, Philippines, Vietnam, and Belarus (it’s… a bit of a crack pairing, I know. Humor me on this one, okay?) are the only three characters that I really ship with America right now. I will put up with a few other pairings with him, but not many, and Philippines, IMHO, is the best match for the guy. Sue me, it’s cute.

I dunno, I’m not that pleased with how this turned out, but eh, it’s okay I guess. I do like Philippines’ flowers and Al’s jacket, but that’s all that really stands out to me in this pic. Not much else to say about this one. :/
