Oh my...this is a great headcanon-honestly, I don't think anyone else has thought about this. The title is perfect, the characterization of Canada (the acceptance of the inevitable, his willingness to explain the death of James), and everything about this story really resonates with me. This is a great story to explain how not human the Nations really are and how they survive. I always wish that Himapapa would expand more on what makes the Nations what they are, but I'll accept this as a wonderful substitute!

Great job and have a wonderful day!

Really dark. I like it!

That's terrifying, but makes perfect sense

This is...dark. and strangely possible option.

thats really interesting, and fantastic theory. Really enjoyed this

*stares at the date this was published* *won't tell you why*

This was awesome! I read Notice Me Not a few months back, so I saw your avatar and tried to figure out where I've seen it before. XD

Well, f***. Now I'm crying. MAH POOR CANADIAN BABEH! *sobs* HOW THE HECK DID HE DEAL WITH THIS FOR SO LONG. I THINK I NOW KNOW WHY RUSSIA IS INSANE.
All the nations: ...

Woah. I'd say it's angst or tragedy. More like tragedy.
It's a really interesting take on 'what happens after', and I suppose it was this creativity that propelled you into the ranks of those recommended to the TV Tropes.
You deserve your place on that page, bro. You really do.

That was...deep...whhooaaa

Yeesh, never thought about it quite like that... Makes you wonder how the other Nations handle it...

That is a really interesting idea.

There's a nice little twist on the nations mortality/immortality. Clever.

What a unique and wonderfully creepy take on how physical death affects nations! A very well written and intriguing story.

Angst, probably... I really like it, you know, it was very interesting, your idea was really great. And I love your ending.
Thank you so much for it !

Oh wow, I'm amazed... well, not amazed at the concept but you know, amazed at how you interpreted it. It makes sense... and for one, I'm glad Canada wasn't completely apathetic and still had guilt. It was lovely, thanks for the fic!
