07.) Sock puppet

Antonio often gets lonely when Lovino is away on business trips and meetings. So to cure this “problem”, Antonio created a Lovino sock puppet, curl and all.

He mimics Lovino’s voice and holds conversations with it like he would with Lovino any other normal day. He pretends to have fake arguments and make-out sessions. Sometimes even sexy times.

Lovino has yet to find out about Antonio’s “problem solver”. And Antonio has no idea that Lovino had a similar idea to him about solving his own problem while he was away.

05.) Representation

When referring to anything in Italy, you are referring to both Veneziano and Romano.

Yes, they represent different halves of the country. Yes, they take pride in representing their own respective halves.

But as a whole, both of them are representing Italy. Together, they make up the country and share everything that is apart of it.

04.) Children

Romano is surprisingly fond of children.

He absolutely adores everything about them. From their innocence and purity, to their playfulness and creativity. He also admires how one child’s imagination can be so big and filled with endless possibilities. It truly amazes him.

When playing with children, Romano becomes quite silly and childish himself. He’ll join in on their games of ‘pretend’ or ‘house’ without a care. This is one of the rare times you’ll spot Romano with a soft-hearted and genuine smile on his face.

03.) Braids

Romano is an expert when it comes to braiding hair.

He knows how to do a variety of different braids; french, swiss, crown, fishtail, english, cornrow, etc.

And during Spain’s pirate days, Spain would let little Romano practice his technique on his long hair. Despire Romano’s protests, he really enjoyed braiding Spain’s ponytail.

02.) Extreme Gamer

Gilbert can be considered one of those “hardcore” gamers.

He is very much emotionally invested in whichever video game he is playing. This results in frequent outbursts, such as profuse swearing and constant stomping. Maybe even throwing a few things, like his beer cans or chip bags. There is often a lot of rage quits as well.

Gilbert is also one to rub it in your face when he acquires a kill or a win. However, on the other hand, if he gets killed or loses, all hell breaks loose.

“HOW THE HELL WAS I SHOT AND KILLED? HE WASN’T EVEN ANYWHERE NEAR ME. NO NO, YOU FUCKING CAMPER, ALL YOU DO IS FUCKING CAMP, YOU FAGGOT.”

“MOTHERFUCKING LAG EVERYWHERE, I CAN’T EVEN SHOOT THE GUY, C’MOOONNNNN.”

“WEST WEST, I’M LAGGING. HEYYYY, I SAID I’M LAGGING, DO YOU HEAR ME WEST.”

“SUCK MY DICK, LOSERS. I’M GONNA NUKE YOUR ASSES.”

Ludwig eventually made Gilbert move to the basement to game, hoping to tone down Gilbert’s yelling. Nonetheless, his shouts can still be heard, loud and clear, from behind the basement door.

01.) Mario Kart

Whenever Antonio and Lovino play Mario Kart, Antonio will become really upset when you hit him with a turtle shell. Or even use one for that matter. He believes that you’re abusing an innocent turtle. Lovino tries to explain that they’re empty and it’s just a game, but Antonio will go on to say that the creators stripped these turtles of their home or whatever.
