Somebody write this fanfic NOW
OKAY HEAR ME OUT - Puck bunny Austria and hockey player Prussia
Roderich, who usually prides himself on knowing who is on the local team and misses the biggest trade of the season
Gilbert who who finds out about the trade right before the deadline on social media and it’s all anyone seems to be talking about on his timeline
Alfred and Matthew, who have known Gilbert forever, feeling bad for him despite their excitement for Gilbert joining their team and taking him out one night once he’s settled in
Roderich, going out with Arthur to see a local band and hanging out by the bar while Arthur gets crushed in the pit
Alfred spotting Roderich and immediately running to find Arthur because he will get that man to say yes to a date if it’s the last god damn thing he does
Gilbert and Matthew getting separated in the crowd, so Gilbert slips off to the bar to get a drink and seeing Roderich for the first time and instantly falling for him before he even introduces himself
Roderich recognising the man standing next to him immediately and letting Gilbert buy him a drink without trying to be too obvious
Gilbert and Roderich spending the rest of the show together talking. Gilbert feeling like he has someone who actually listens and cares for the first time in a long time
Gilbert asking Roderich to go back to his hotel with him. They hook up and Roderich leaves in the middle of the night
Gilbert going to practice the next morning and finding Roderich taking to Matthew like he hung the stars and understanding what happened and who Roderich is which sets off a string of loathing and miscommunication
“Thank fuck I only have a year here, you’re making my life a living hell” -Gilbert Beilschmidt
Alfred being forced to ban Roderich from practices because Gilbert seems to be intent on getting into stupid fights with him, but can’t do anything about games when he shows up with Arthur (who is dating Alfred by this point)
Roderich trying to act like he’s not completely in love with Gilbert
Gilbert taking a bad hit in the last regular season game and Roderich waiting outside the locker room until the team doctor decides Gilbert can change and go up to the players box
Gilbert walking out of the locker room fully expecting to be alone, only to be wrapped up in Roderich’s arms
Gilbert being forced to watch the playoffs from the players box because he’s too injured to play, and Roderich sitting with him for every game
Gilbert explaining the game to Roderich because he realises while he knows a lot about the players, he knows almost nothing about the nuances of hockey
Roderich and Gilbert genuinely enjoying each others presence and falling into a routine when the team doctors clear Gilbert for play in the semifinals, where they lose
Roderich’s heart sinking when he realises this is the end of Gilbert being on the team and they’re likely never going to see each other again so he leaves before Gilbert hurts him again
Gilbert making the decision to stay on the team and looking for Roderich, and finding him nowhere. Practically begging Arthur to tell him where he went
Roderich is often troubled by the many beaus of his that plague his mind
some 1950s pruaus lovin
Rumors have it that he doesn't smoke, except to relieve stress while a traitor is being taken 'care of'. He hardly ever gets his hands dirty, he's rich enough to keep them clean. His car stays parked right outside the theatre, and any scream and beg for mercy is suffocated by the orchestra playing on stage.
Sort of an art dump of my less terrible art.

Take a shot every time they get mixed up
I was thinking of making a week to celebrate all the sibling relations in Hetalia!
You wouldn't be just limited to Canon sibling relations too:
Canon: It's confirmed in canon that they are siblings (Veneziano and Romano; America and Canada; Germany and Prussia, etc)
Historical/Cultural: Interpreting cultural or historical relations as a sibling dynamic (Slovakia, Czechia, and Poland being siblings due to their shared Western Slavic origin; Estonia, Finland, and Hungary being siblings due to their shared Uralic origin; The Germanics; etc)
Fanon: You've seen characters interact with each other and interpret their relationship as sibling like (Such as France claiming to be the big brother of Europe, The Baltics; Germany and Austria, England and America/Canada, etc)
Purely Aesthetics: You've never seen these characters interact in canon but you think it would be cool to see them with a sibling type bond (found family if you will)
*Of course, there is overlap among these four categories
If enough people are interested, I'll create a separate blog, poll for the prompts, and select a week. Please reblog for a wider outreach <3
Thank you so much for reading all this!
🐣 please <3
🐣 my favorite parent/child dynamic
It's Austria/Italy!! ;w; I just love how it started from pretty much rock bottom, with Austria being just an immature teen who pretty much took advantage of the power imbalance to use Chibitalia as a stress relief and bully him, but somehow as the decades went by and he became more mature, the relationship between them changed more and more until it became a proper parent/child dynamic. Besides, while early strips use Austria's bullying towards baby Feli as comic relief, it is also shown from the start that their relationship wasn't all bad and they also spent some quality time together (for instance Roderich allowed baby Feli to take beaks from chores to listen to his music when he caught him spying, because Roderich himself was pretty much broken inside and craving positive attention and praise). There's also the Sleeping with Sheep Drama CD where Hungary, Chibitalia and HRE are sleeping in the same bed and Erzsi convinces Roderich to stay there with them for some time too and makes him count sheep for her and the kids. How freaking wholesome is that?? ;_;
And like, the way Feli doesn't hold grudges and he's always happy to see Austria!! And how Austria allows Feli to hug him despite him generally not enjoying public displays of affection <33 He must care about him a lot if he allows it. I headcanon that both Feli and Roderich have in common a deep craving for human-like interactions between Personifications, and for this reason they tend to value relationships like that a lot, because that's one of the closest things they'll ever get to the condition of humans.
In the end, Roderich pretty much filled the spot left by Grandpa Rome's disappearance in Feli's life, and even if their relationship didn't start in the best way, Feli probably grew very attached to Austria (and Hungary) on a personal level because unlike Rome and HRE, he never left. That must be extremely comforting for someone with abandonment issues like him, and God knows how awful he must've felt, as Feliciano, to force himself to fight Roderich and Erzsebét for Italy's independence from Austria.
I hc that Feli never misses a year to spend Father's Day with Roderich (and Mother's Day with Erzsi) and calls him quite often to tell him stuff and ask him advice. Sometimes, it even feels too much for Roderich, but on the other hand it does fill his heart with joy that Feli is the kind of person he is. He definitely takes some pride in the way Feli turned out, too.
... I also headcanon that at some point, as a teen and before independence, Feli had developed a bit of an innocent crush on Austria, but that's beyond the point lol
