[this message quite surprises him. is Chibi asking him out? on Valentine's Day? goodness, when was the last time that happened?
England considers this invitation for hours. there is a lot of pacing involved, a lot of thinking to be done. England has never dated a human before. but Chibi is from another world. and here... England isn't even immortal.
they had a fun time, didn't they? he doesn't have to look at this like a date! he can look at it as hanging out with someone who's company he quite enjoys. oh, why is this so stressful? as romantic as England is, as old as he is, he's had very few relationships. and for someone to take such an interest in him, to tell him he wants to see him again........... it's overwhelming. and flattering.
he replies much much later, via text]
I'll see if I can get off work.
[whole lot of hullabaloo for a one sentence response]
tl;dr
